Lorelei scowled as she rushed across campus, walking fast, while the one o'clock bell rang. She knew she had to keep her stress level down so her area-of-effect poison wouldn't mess with too many people, but given that Scorpion had control in the mornings, Lorelei was on a tight schedule to get all her Psychology Major classes in on the afternoons. After all, she could NOT afford to let people know about Scorpion, which also meant not allowing Scorpion to speak to anybody. Scorpion was unnatural and wrong; Lorelei had enough to worry about with fitting in without having people trying to exorcise her or knowing about her strange abilities. With her luck they'd probably just do whatever they felt like and blame her. Scorpion, at least, consented to do homework- just not enough; Scorpion was too based towards the physical aspects of life and never the intellectual. At the moment Lorelei was about middle of the class, because in order to get Scorpion to do anything in the morning Lorelei had to spend her nights jogging. She scraped by above the radar last semester, but this one was getting more difficult, just for trying to appease Scorpion's need to beat people or mess up Lorelei's life by, just, well, being a freak. At noon, Lorelei had just managed to get a shower in and threw on a t-shirt and jeans and get her stuff together (Scorpion was so ungodly messy!) before she had rushed out the door for another day of classes and anonymity. Being anonymous, unlike back in the states, was the thing that got Lorelei by; she couldn't bear if her power triggered some unnatural reaction and cause a scene. Because of that, she made sure she was never late, but never too early; right now she was racing the clock: her stuff had been harder to find than usual today. Scorpion thinks Lorelei too stressed. Lorelei needs to relax in Lorelei's life. Scorpion's random interruption made Lorelei jump, and she accidentally brushed against somebody for a second. Shut up, this is your fault, she responded bitterly and started to hurry on when something she heard behind her made her freeze in fear of exposure of her unnatural gifts. |

Akai was at the university, minding her own business really. Her true purpose was a bit... shady as always, and more often than not involving at the very least someone having some... unprofessional dental work? Well, regardless of her purpose, it seemed she arrived at the wrong time as the students were too busy trying to get their failing asses into class to talk to her. The red-head frowned pondering her next move when she was, ever so rudely, bumped into. Shut up, this is your fault Twitch "Excuse me?" Akai's right eye twitched. She didn't realize it just yet, but that neurotoxin recieved from just that short contact, was starting to sink it's way in... The red-head furrowed her eyebrows, her vision blurring in and out, giving her flashes of a rather typical hallucination of hers... 'what the hell is going on?' |

Lorelei slowly turned around. The person she was assuming she had bumped into was looking a bit....off....Lorelei knew she had gotten too close. Oh shit. Ha-ha, ha-ha, red-head got a bru-sie Lorelei was already covered by a couple people, hidden from view; she slowly started to back up a bit before anybody noticed. Oh? Scorpion wonders why the weak, pathetic, coward one. If it were Scorpion, Scorpion would stand and fight, and Scorpion would own anything in their path. This one is soooo boring. Shut up, shut up, shut up! I wouldn't have bumped her if you hadn't said anything! Ha-ha- the weak one is weak. (OOC: if there's no quotation marks, it's a thought conversation inside her head.)

Adjusting his tie, Valentine was walking through the campus; his eyes looking for someone...anyone really. However in the middle of his search he was finding the weather a bit stifling given he was in formal attire. Mind you he liked to dress this way, but today he certainly wouldn't have if he had the choice. He had a job to do, a simple one really. However to do his job he needed to blend in, and whatever way to do so on a school campus then dressing like a professor. What his task would remain between him and the higher ups, and he would see to it that it got done. As he looked around for possible candidates, he noticed a bit of a commotion going on. Some girl had accidentally bumped into someone and wouldn't ya know it, that someone had flipped their lid of sorts. Interesting. Rolling up his sleeves, Valentine certainly believed it was time to get to work. Keeping his eye on the girl in question, he saw her slowly move into a crowd of others. Obscured and some what hidden, he would be forced to venture closer if he were to investigate. He didn't mind though, jobs required one to get their hands dirty after all. Putting on a bright smile, Valentine cut through the grass and began walking over; his eyes searching for his figurative needle in the haystack. |

It took a bit for Lorelei to decide, but finally she did. Gritting her teeth, she sent the condemning mental message to Scorpion. I consider this your fault. You're cleaning it up, but so help me, keep your voice down or I will make sure you don't ever emerge for very long again. I do not need people thinking I'm a freak. Scorpion chuckled. Scorpion will do whatever Scorpion wants. Although it is quite true, of course, that Lorelei cannot stop anybody on Lorelei's own. Do it and this little problem will... disappear. Lorelei had heard THAT before, and it did NOT give her confidence. Therefore, she started looking around for a quiet spot to sit and lean back; once she saw one, she started making her way over right away. Lorelei and Scorpion could switch who was the dominant personality up to twice per day willingly, otherwise they had to be knocked unconscious to switch. If they did choose to switch willingly, they had to be sitting down and they couldn't switch back for at least an hour and a half. Doing this was a big risk, according to Lorelei, but she had no combat skills, and therefore it was necessary. Sitting down, with her back against the tree, the toxin flared super-strong for just a second while Lorelei passed out and slumped unconscious. However, two seconds after, Scorpion took over and the body seemed to shudder for a second while Scorpion yawned, standing up and stretching. Although Lorelei made a point of not being noticed, the difference between Lorelei and Scorpion was immediately obvious. There was nothing wrong with Lorelei, but Scorpion tended to move with aggressive promiscuity, attached to a "i'm-a-god-and-you-are-the-shit-at-my-feet" sort of confidence, and she was almost always grinning in a seductive way with her eyes baiting people in. The toxin that came out of Lorelei's body was stronger when Scorpion was dominant, and Scorpion could actually turn it into a concentrated dose in the form of a needle she could then stab people with. Scorpion loved to remind Lorelei, enough that Lorelei often got pissed off at her for it, that Scorpion had once been a force to be reckoned with and a swordmaster; while Lorelei's body didn't have the training Scorpion's once had however long ago Scorpion had lived, Scorpion did still know how to fight. Scorpion began making her way back over to the fight with this in mind. Edited by Sparky Muse, May 23 2012, 02:01 PM.

Thanks to a little help from Valentine's enhanced reflexes, working his way through a congested crowd of people was a breeze. However as close as he wanted to be, he also wanted to keep his distance. A fight was brewing about, and he did not want to get involved in that little debacle. He merely wanted to observe was all, and when all was settled sweep through and make a few deals. His eyes on the girl that struck his interest, he saw her take a seat over by a tree. Keeping himself fringed on the outskirts of the crowd, he watched as she just sat there. What was she doing? He wanted to go up to her and be blatant about his curiosity, but he knew that was absolutely forbidden. It would ruin anything he worked hard to do. It didn't matter though for the girl soon got up. However as she stood up, her whole demeanor was different. She gave of a completely different vibe. Valentine had no idea what he was experiencing but he was pretty sure this girl wasn't exactly the same from when she sat down a few seconds ago. A curious brow raised, Valentine silently watched as the girl threw herself back into the crowd. Valentine didn't exactly understand, but he was smiling none the less. This girl was quite the conundrum and she was the type of puzzle he wanted to solve. If he could understand her, then just maybe he'd get the rest of the information needed to make a decision in regards to his mission. Curious about what transpired earlier, Valentine grabbed some poor chap from the side and thrust the kid right in the girl's direction.. He was going to conduct a little experiment and see just what would happen from this small collision. A geeky fellow he wanted to see if anything personality wise changed about him from being near the girl. Unfortunately for the poor chap he threw, Valentine was betting his money on some rather ill effects. At least it was for a good cause in the name of science...

Scorpion was pretty much marching through the crowd when suddenly some poor fool knocked into from the side; Scorpion was knocked sideways, but her temper was already initiated; somebody had touched her without her permission, and she would have her revenge. Scorpion don't you even dare! Scorpion ignored Lorelei as she grabbed the person and spun around, slamming them into a nearby wall while he stammered apologies. Her fist was clenched, her face reflected murder, and she looked about ready to punch him. However, when she tried to swing her fist, it suddenly stopped. Lorelei will let go of Lorelei's fist. There was extreme anger in her tone. You will not start a fight again, Scorpion. Lorelei is not in charge. Scorpion will do as Scorpion pleases. If you really think that- Lorelei's mental voice was weak from the effort of exerting herself to prevent Scorpion's rampage- then I will forcibly switch positions again. Lorelei wasn't bluffing, of course; however, to force a switch, Lorelei would be wiped out and practically unable to move for a couple of days, both physically and mentally exhausted. It was enough of a threat that Scorpion gave pause. Lorelei wouldn't dare. I won't have things ruined because of your stupid mental state, Scorpion. You will not start a random fight. At that point, Lorelei's mental control exhausted and the arm was released back into Scorpion's control. My threat still stands. This changes nothing. Scorpion gritted her teeth angrily, and the person she was holding against the wall, who presumably had seen nothing more than a mental struggle, still stammering apologies, flinched a couple of times as Scorpion faked him out a couple of times, then let him fall to the ground. Scorpion then crossed her arms and growled, "Foolish ones need thank Lorelei for being merciful. Scorpion will not tolerate unnecessary touching next time." Good, now you will turn around and leave. We are not starting a fight, Scorpion. Don't make me have to make you. Scorpion's face darkened and she growled a bit more, but with sure signs of deep aggravation she turned and stormed off. Next person that starts something with Scorpion, Lorelei- Scorpion will have Scorpion's way with them. Scorpion grabbed the backpack Lorelei had been carrying and stormed off to a more isolated part of campus where she could be alone until she could switch back. Everything about her suggested she was still looking for a fight. She wasn't paying attention to her surrounding out of anger, making her easy to follow. Edited by Sparky Muse, May 24 2012, 10:39 AM.

Despite a momentary wince in sympathy for the lad he just threw, Valentine was all smiles. He wasn't looking for a fight per say, but he was expecting the kid to get wrecked by this girl. However Valentine didn't exactly get what he wanted. While the girl slammed the kid into a wall and looked about ready to demolish him...she didn't. She was holding back. Eyebrow raised, Valentine didn't get it. A bit disappointing really, though it was probably for the best. Self control was a valuable think to have in his new line of work, and his associates would probably want that in newcomers as well. With disaster pretty much averted, the girl sent her prey running before walking off herself. Isolation? That was fine with Valentine. Wherever she was headed, it would be private it seemed. Privacy made for better business deals anyways. Letting the girl get a head start, Valentine soon followed after. Though it seemed her mind was on other things, Valentine was taking all measures to keep himself from being noticed. He wanted her to calm down and relax slightly. When the time was right to make his presence known he wanted to minimize any possible aggression; most certainly making sure not to touch her. |

In one section of the campus there was a deeply wooded path with a few gazebo-like areas along it for sitting and resting. Most of the time these places were isolated during the day, especially during school hours, as they took a while to travel through and while they could be used as a shortcut between classes, they were much faster ways. Especially since they built a closer, more straight and narrow path without the woods. On rare occasion science classes would come out here, either to study animals or plants, or the more shy and quiet types would come here to be alone. At night it was a romance getaway. Lorelei and Scorpion came here because the entire path was made of wood, and while your footsteps echoed while walking, if you stood still you could listen and hear a long way off anybody who was walking carelessly. It was possible to walk silently enough on the path to get close, but not to get altogether too close without being noticed. For that it was easier to walk through the woods. When Scorpion and Lorelei came here, they could talk out loud and listen for anybody coming close, just in case. They knew which gazebo-like building was the exact center, and Scorpion stomped there loud enough she couldn't hear anybody following more than twenty feet behind her, although closer than that she would be able to. As soon as she reached the chosen building, Scorpion pulled a box of pills out of her pocket. It was a flat multi-container pill carrier, so if she wore a long-enough shirt she could carry it on her without it being noticed, and if it was found she could claim it was for her health. She even had a prescription with a doctor for adrenaline pills, just in case. Lorelei had used Scorpion's "shameful knowledge" of flirting to get the doctor to give her a prescription after she used internet searching and her toxic aura to find a doctor with loose-enough morals to succumb to her needs. Scorpion paused and listened for almost a full minute before she pulled out the pill box; hearing nothing, she popped the one from the space labeled for that day. Instantly, her aura fluxed very, very strong, and Scorpion used her abnormally strong control over her poison to have it focus and come together in a mirror image of her- or, rather, a mirror image of Lorelei- and used it to "externalize" Lorelei's mind so they could speak in private. With an angry hiss, Scorpion ranted, "Scorpion demands to know why Lorelei-mind is so fates-damned determined to have Scorpion start a fight Lorelei nearly caused when Lorelei bumped into somebody, and then when somebody bumps into Scorpion, Lorelei exhausts Lorelei's fucking mind holding Scorpion back! Lorelei wants Scorpion to start a fight, Lorelei needs to let Scorpion decimate whomever Scorpion damn well chooses!" Although the image of Lorelei's mouth moved in sync to the words Lorelei responded with, the voice could only be heard in Scorpion's head. A lip-reader could have read the words, but only with skill and with much difficulty, as the swirling poison was mostly transparent. I gave you control so you could stop a fight, not start it with some random kid. Again, it's your fault anyway: I told you to shut up during daylight hours when I'm in school; I wouldn't have bumped him in the first place if you hadn't said anything! And we would have been here earlier if you'd actually work with me and help me get ready for my classes! Scorpion's response back was more of a raised-pitch snarl this time as Scorpion, wild with rage, turned and kicked the side of the building while giving Lorelei a murderous look. At this point she was barely listening to the surroundings, but with an echo it would be immediately obvious. "Scorpion will do as Scorpion pleases! Scorpion is Lorelei's elder, Scorpion knows what's needed, Scorpion is greater than fucking Lorelei! If Scorpion had a body of Scorpion's own, Scorpion would crystallize this poison and cut Lorelei's fucking bleeding heart out! Scorpion has all the power! Scorpion! Not Lorelei!" You only have power because it comes from my body, and you're only here because my body is the host. Don't even think for a second you're stronger than me, Scorpion. I already proved you're not. Just because you have fighting knowledge doesn't mean you have mental strength. You may be the power but I am the control. How about you don't forget that? Lorelei knew it was a mistake as soon as she finished thinking it, but Lorelei, like most people, had difficulty censoring her thoughts when angry. Scorpion's need for superiority kicked in and she took on a mad, wild look and turned to look at Lorelei with a wicked grin. "Lorelei is the control? Lorelei thinks Lorelei controls Scorpion? Scorpion laughs. Scorpion is going to destroy weak, pathetic, worth-nothing Lorelei's foolish, ignorant, incorrect view of the command structure between Scorpion and Lorelei. Lorelei is exhausted; Scorpion is not. So now Scorpion is going to go back there and Scorpion is going to show all people what a truly powerful goddess of war is. The corpses will rain like arrows and Scorpion's hands will be soaked with the blood of the innocent, all because Lorelei thinks Lorelei is stronger than Scorpion. Foolish, pathetic, weak, goody-goody bleeding-heart Lorelei thinks she can control Scorpion, knock Scorpion out every morning so Lorelei assumes command? Lorelei is pathetic. Scorpion will see just how much death Lorelei's poor mind can take as Scorpion heaps the bodies and blood on Lorelei's hands, and Scorpion will see just how much control Lorelei has when Lorelei's body is assaulted daily by those who enforce the corrupt law in this pathetic world while Lorelei's mind is shredded constantly by Scorpion's will! Can Lorelei still control Scorpion then? Scorpion will just have to see, won't Scorpion?" By the end of this rant, Scorpion was completely ignoring her surroundings as looking so crazed and wild-eyed that it was clear she was beyond insane. Still, she hadn't moved, mostly because of her need to inflict pain both mental and physical, and Lorelei started gathering up her remaining strength for the day: switching back was the only hope Lorelei would have of containing Scorpion, even though it would leave her weak and exhausted for potentially days. (OOC: I'm going to stop it here, because I want to give you an opportunity to do something now before I have them switch back next post. Again, yes, Scorpion is insane, but Lorelei is the good one.) |

Moving cautiously, Valentine tried to keep his movements slow and methodical. He kept as far back as possible for the sake of any slip ups. Sounds could and would work against him if he were careless after all. Slowly creeping up the trail, his target would be several yards ahead of him if that were any sign of how slow he purposefully made his movements. He had to acknowledge the fact where he was headed was isolated and quiet. The perfect place for making a few transactions and getting a name on the dotted line. By the time he reached his target, she had isolated herself in the gazebo like constructs littered about. Valentine himself kept hidden among the grass and trees, trying to aim for obscurity. Though that didn't keep him from peering out past his cover to watch his target further. As he watched, he was perturbed by the fact the girl was talking. But to who? She wasn't on a cellphone and lacked any hands free device; at least as far as he could see. A conundrum truly, it played into the other curious mysteries he had discovered about this girl. He needed answers, but now just wasn't quite the right moment. He'd let the girl rant, whatever it was she was ranting about hoping to move in when all was said and done. |
