Make Love, not War! (Phasma!)

And so, life carried on. Elika hadn’t gotten her mocha, and the incident in the café was but a distant memory for her. A few days had passed since then, and she learned her lesson to stay away from the café during rush hours. So when noon time rolled around today, she scurried off into the library to catch up on some reading. As anyone could guess, the libraries were one of her favorite places, right next to museums. The greatest thing about them was not only conversation rare—but people could get in trouble for getting in them! Libraries were the perfect place to go for silence. She climbed to the back of the library, weaving through the shelves until she was lost inside the maze. Elika took in a deep breath, enjoying the books and the silence. This was perfect. She threw down the book she had picked up along the way, pulled herself into the seat, and flipped it open to the first page. People thought Elika was boring. Had they saw what her preferred reading material was, they would then know that she was, indeed, quite dull. The book in front of her was on game theory. Technical writing that was much too complex for even the nerdy girl to understand. But, that wouldn’t stop her from trying. She skimmed over the complex mathematical equations, choosing not to bother with them, and instead tried to wrap her head around the idea itself. She would never have guessed that this material, that she was reading this very moment, was about to be tested… |

Time passed and Cunningham let the cafe incident fizzle out of his memory. He had more important things that required the neuron space anyways. After all, he was the ruler of the realm of sands now so he needed to figure out how best to use it. Ideas had formed in his head but he would need further research to bolster the possibilities of his dreams coming into fruition. As he walked into the library, Cunningham was wondering where to begin his research. Anything dealing with heavy duty magic was usually located in the back so he'd have to head there. With the destination in hand, Cunningham like a specter in the night glided through the aisles to reach the back of the library. It was then that a fury greater then the unbridled fury of a thousand suns hit Cunningham. The bitch from the cafe was sitting right in front of him.....sitting right in front of him. Edging closer and closer to the table, Cunningham got a look at the book Elika's furry head was engulfed in. The book was about theories.....game theories to be exact. Cunningham's unbridled fury was slowly washing away as if he were being hit by a deep submerge attack from a scantily dressed lesbian from outer space. Perhaps the girl wasn't that bad. "Game theory? Didn't know you played video games, nice." It was then that Cunningham took a seat across from Elika. For some strange reason he seemed intrigued. He wanted more. He wanted to know more. He couldn't explain it. Something was drawing him to this girl, something he never felt before. Developing a little grin, Cunningham slyly licked his pointy tooth. Things were certainly getting interesting. |

Oh boy, what a nasty surprise. Of all people, of all people, to find Elika’s secret hiding spot in the back of the library, it had to be HIM. She ducked her head down deeper into her book. Hopefully, he wouldn’t notice her. Hopefully, he’d pass right on by without saying a single word. If only she was that lucky… No, not only did he recognize her, but he seated himself across from her. And guess what? He even wanted to engage in a friendly conversation. How sweet. Not. “Video games?” Elika scoffed. Maybe there was some truth to the dumb-blonde theory. “Game theory is a branch of applied mathematics that’s used in social sciences. Such as economics, biology, engineering, political science, international relations, computer science, philosophy, and all that. Duh. It has nothing to do with video games.” Fine, maybe it did have something to do with the creation of video games, but to admit that, Elika would crack up the strong foundation she just built for herself. Now was her opportunity to bask in the superiority she had over the stranger-from-the-café. Behind her, her tail swayed in satisfied little flicks, and her golden eyes shot up, and met Cunningham’s dead-on, daring him to make a comeback. Teasing his ignorance. She hated him. Her mouth opened, revealing a wicked little smile, satisfied that she had gotten him back. “My name is Elika, by the way.” |

“Video games? Game theory is a branch of applied mathematics that’s used in social sciences. Such as economics, biology, engineering, political science, international relations, computer science, philosophy, and all that. Duh. It has nothing to do with video games. My name is Elika, by the way.” Cunningham just smirked. Little did this sassy cat know, but Cunningham didn't by what she was saying. It was more of a paranoid suspicion, but hell it was one worth following. Licking his left bicuspid, Cunningham spoke. "Ya know that almost would have worked....except for the fact I read the book myself. Elika eh? That's an exotic name. It's also the name of the chick from the new Prince of Persia." Cunningham leaned back in his chair. His gaze met with Elika's and remained locked in contact. No matter how hard he tried, something kept drawing his attention to the girl. But why? It exceeded simple logic. Logic that Cunningham himself defined and could control. Unfortunately this attraction....he couldn't control...and if Elika could...then she pretty much had his u know whats on a silver platter. Licking his tooth once again, "So..." |

Elika’s smile quickly turned into a pout. “Yeah, I’m sure you did.” She rolled her eyes, disbelieving that he really had read the book in front of her. If he had, if he really truly had, then she figured he was much, much less interesting of a person than he lets on. Nobody reads about ‘game theory’ and other theories just for fun. ...Well, maybe Elika, but even to HER it wasn’t ‘fun.’ Necessary was a better term for it. “I’m sure that’s what my mother intended. I can see it now! ‘Oh Abeni! Let’s name her Elika!’ ‘Elika? What an erotic name! Yes. Let’s name our baby girl Elika! Hopefully the men will drool all over her, for having such a tantalizing name!’” She rolled her eyes and slammed the book closed. If this guy was really, really going to sit around and be this stupid, surely he wouldn’t know the difference if she was there or not. It hadn’t occurred to her that he wasn’t making fun of her. She pushed up, out of her seat, pushed down the front of her skirt, and turned around to leave. But after two steps she stopped. Her lion ears pinched back, expressing her annoyance and anger as she realized that, wait, he was taking over her space. Unacceptable. No way would she give up without a fight. So she turned around, book held tight against her chest, and mouthed “leave” silently. Her golden eyes glared, trying to scare him away with the evil eye. If he wouldn’t leave on his own, then she would make him. |

“I’m sure that’s what my mother intended. I can see it now! ‘Oh Abeni! Let’s name her Elika!’ ‘Elika? What an erotic name! Yes. Let’s name our baby girl Elika! Hopefully the men will drool all over her, for having such a tantalizing name!’” Cunningham just licked his pointy teeth slyly. He didn't say anthying about the girl being erotic. Exotic, most definitely, but erotic? Well......even if she did have a certain look to her, Cunningham didn't say it. Watching as Elika attempted to storm of off in a fit of passionate rage, he was a bit surprised to see her turn around and come back. As her golden eyes attempted to burn a hole into the violet one's of Cunningham, her lips mouthed out the word leave. Cunningham just shook his head from side to side. There was no way in hell he was moving. If she wanted him gone, she'd have to make him move. Getting comfortable in his chair, Cunningham kicked both feet onto the table as he continued to look Elika in the eyes. What was it with the good looking women and their rebellious and troublesome streak. As much as it made Hammy's mind ponder with questions it only turned him on. "This is such a comfy chair, you should join me.", the boy said coolly. |

Elika stood her ground, legs apart at shoulder length and chest out. She wasn’t trying to appear intimidating, but certainly wanted to show the blonde that she meant business. But he kept his cool and composure, silently replying to her unvoiced threat. It drove her crazy, the way he could just stand there and take her insults and blows, and just smile them off. Who did he think he was, anyways? She threw the book down on the table, and a loud ‘thud’ echoed across the small vicinity. Most bookworms, who could be compared to Elika, would frown over such mistreatment of the poor defenseless book. Not Elika though. Unlike those half-wits, she understood that a book was—guess what?—just a book. The gesture expressed her anger and annoyance, a plea for the stranger to get a hint and show him that she wasn’t playing around anymore. His stupidity was really getting to her. Then he spoke more, his words silky, contrasting her own sharp and violent ones. But in response, her face expressed a mixture of confusion and disgust, especially considering that she mistaken what he had said moments ago about her name being ‘erotic.’ Clearly there was only one thing on his mind, and she wanted to kick herself for not seeing it sooner. But that anger flared right back up. Not because of what he said, but because of the tone he used. So relaxed, so nonchalant, as if he didn’t understand that she hated him. “Are you kidding me?” Elika forced out a dry laugh. “I want you to leave. Right. Now.” She had been tapping her finger nail on the table by now, trying to channel out some of the frustration she felt, but it was too much to bear. So her fist came up, and fell back down onto the table, smashing the pine, causing the structure to crumble. That felt good. “Get out, or you’re next!” Elika walked through the broken table, up to Cunningham, and stared into his violet eyes. Her balled fist was raised up to her side, as if she was holding onto a precious item. She’d love to hit him, really she would. And that dawned on her too. So instead of giving him that second chance she offered on the table, the chance to let him leave without abuse, was revoked. So instead of letting him leave, that balled fist pulled itself back, and shot toward Cunningham. |

“I want you to leave. Right. Now.” Cunningham just laughed. Honestly, getting a rise out of people was so much fun. Especially when one got a rise out of exotic girl's like Elika. Never faltering in composure, Cunningham stared back at Elika even when she got up in his gorgeous grill. And then, that's when the unexpected happened. The girl literally punched a table and made it shatter into pieces. “Get out, or you’re next!” Cunningham needless to say was a bit surprised. Despite the lingering sword of Damocles that hung over his head, Cunningham refused to move. Hell, the girl's irate attitude just made him sink lower into the chair. It didn't take long for Elika to lunge toward the boy in an attempt to leave. If it was a fight the girl wanted, then a fight she was going to get. With a balled fist aimed squarely for his head, Cunningham used his reflexes to the best of their ability to move his head to the side and catch the girl's arm with his left hand. Leaning the chair off the ground at this point, Cunningham pulled Elika in only to prick her forehead with his right middle finger. Before the girl could do anything, Cunningham made it a good point to jump out the chair and around the table he and Elika were occupying. Roar, my exotic mamacita! |

The fist zoomed right for Cunningham’s head. She really didn’t care if he got a black eye, broken nose, or even a cracked jaw. Whatever. It didn’t matter to her anymore, and it was his own fault to begin with. He, too, seemed to be taken off guard by the sudden, vicious attack. But instead of having his face punched in, he tilted his head away, and the blow missed him completely. She, too, looked surprised. What abnormal reflexes. At least, it seemed that way to Elika. Hmph. So what if he could tilt his head away? Probably just dumb luck. Yeah, sure, he looked like he could hold his own in a fight, but if we judged things just based on appearance, you’d never think the scrawny girl could have the super strength that she possessed. Instead of fighting back, screaming for help, or anything as a result of panic, the cool and collective stranger flicked her forehead, teasing her just a little more. Had she not been so surprised, that temper of hers would have boiled back to the surface, but instead she stood there momentarily admiring what had just happened, as the other guy slipped away. She listened to him taunt her, and a realization surfaced. So. This was the feeling. The feeling of pure hatred, and loathing. She hated a lot of people—a lot of people—but not like this. Not to this degree. “You… You haven’t told me your name, coward.” No, Elika was not finished trying to insight the same anger she felt, back into Cunningham. But, more importantly, she did want to know the name of this man that she hated so, so much. She stretched her arms, loosening up the muscles before trying again. No way, no way would she leave now, with him having the upper hand. Elika had to show him his place before she could permit herself to leave the scene. And, apparently, that meant giving in everything she got. So after her arms were stretched out and limber, the lion girl tried again. She sprinted toward Cunningham, this time both fists pumping back and forth. Just one blow was all she needed to stroke her ego. Just one. ((You totally have permission to dodge all her punches, Z. And afterward, she'll be quite tired and panting.)) |

[OOC: With Safi's permission...] “You… You haven’t told me your name, coward.” Cunningham smirked, "You wanna know my name? My name is Arthur Cunningham but you my firecracker lioness can just call me Cunningham." Even as Cunningham lived and breathed, he couldn't believe how he was talking. Everything he was saying was coming out forcibly and naturally. It was as if his subconscious mind had taken over and blocked all synapses of reasoning to put together this WTF moment. Of course reason was a bit pointless at this stage seeing as Elika wasn't relenting in her attack. Both arms swinging, Cunningham used every bit of his reflexes and senses to shift his body to the left and right as Elika struck. Each punch was missing and Cunningham could see that the girl was getting tired. It wasn't until Elika forced him back to the wall, that the girl was panting and struggling to crack out another punch. This was it, the moment that would change both teens worlds forever. Pinned to the wall, Hammy watched Elika crack out her last and weakest punch. Dodging the punch by shifting to the right, Cunningham pulled the girl in by the waste and did the unthinkable. At the back of the now torn apart library, Cunningham was lip locked with Elika. The two were entwined and Cunningham, despite reason screaming to stop, didn't. He wouldn't, for in the mighty jungle that was life....he had finally found his lioness. |

Each fist full of rage that swung at Cunningham and missed only built on her anger. She wanted him hurt—no, dead. Dead would work. Dead or hurt. Or so hurt that he wished he were dead. Fatigue killed her concentration, but not her motivation, as the wrath and passion grew and festered at an uncontrollable rate. Her brain said Fight, fight, fight but her body was getting out of her control and lagging behind. He breathing grew heavy, and eventually, it was just too hard to pick up her little hands to attack him again. She was panting now and in one final attempt at retaliation, she swung… and missed. No, she hadn’t given up. Never. Elika lifted her arm again, the magic that usually enchanted her fists and made her attacks supernatural had faded, and even if she were to hit him at this point, it’d hardly hurt him, but she didn’t really care. He was out of places to run. But, instead of having the chance to hit him again, Cunningham grabbed a hold of her, whisking her close to him—so close their hips hugged against each other—and pressed his lips against hers. She resisted, trying to push him away with her weak and exhausted frame, but she hardly budged. But the tenderness of the kiss, and its sweet flavor allured her, and her resistance faded away. She still hated him, no doubt, and the anger and zeal still pumped through her vanes, but the kiss redirected it. So instead of pushing away, Elika pressed her body against his and hooked her arms around his shoulders. One arm forced his head lower, in a more comfortable position for her, while the other fingered the fine hairs on the back of his neck. |

Heaven, something Cunningham thought he'd never reach. Many would agree with that statement given his past but today...today proved the statistics wrong. As Cunningham embraced Elika, he felt himself leaving the Earth and going to the cloudy skies up above. As he held the girl, he could feel her fighting him but soon she caved. Soon she melted in his arms like butter on a hot piece of toast. She was his. Elika's embrace softened and became very caressing. The very hairs on his neck weren't immune to her soft touch. A touch he couldn't stop craving. It was a touch that drove his senses wild. He couldn't help what he was feeling, he wanted more. He could feel his body press closer to Elika's as the two were using the wall for support. Finally after what seemed like an eternity, Cunningham's lips parted from Elika's. As he broke away form the girl, his eyes met hers carrying a single message. A message saying that it wasn't over yet. Playing with the girl's shirt, Cunningham gently began to caress Elika's neck as he guided her slowly and seductively to the ground. It wasn't long before the two of them were together demonstrating the true powers of animals and their instincts. Sure it was in the library, but time had proven that the back of the library was safe, safe from those who would interrupt nature. As the music group the bloodhound gang once sang, "You and me baby aint nothin but mammals so let's do it like they do on the discovery channel". |

Yeah, it felt good to be held and caressed. So sue her. She became a wet noodle in his arms and obeyed every suggestion. As the kiss broke, and the gaze continued, the hatred she felt seemed to cool. She didn’t look at him with anger, or passion even, but with awe and curiosity. Where could this lead? What were the possibilities? She stood there staring at him, telling him without words that, at least for that moment, she was his. So she felt victim to his seductive touch. And she wanted more. Her body followed, yearning. She would not know what to expect, where this would lead, nor the consequences. No; such logical thinking was not welcome—not possible—at a time like this. ………………….. They did the nasty. Made love. Did it in the library. As the passion died and Elika snuggled against Cunningham, her logical thinking did make an abrupt return. There she was, half naked with a guy she hated. Oh Elika, what have you gotten yourself into this time? She hopped off of the ground, adjusting and putting back on clothes she had lost, while glaring at Cunningham like this was all his fault. (Which it was!!) “I still hate you!” She wanted to sound aggressive, but it had the tone of ‘I’ll see you later.’ After her clothes fit snug enough, she turned away her nose to him, said “Hmph!” and marched off. Ugh, what a mistake! |
