  • 19 April 2015 -- Niwa is under new management!

    Niwa is now under new management as we strive to stand up the the standards of fun and entertaining roleplaying we have so far provided here at Niwa. Today makes the start of a campaign to bring in new members as Head Admin Akaiken and Support Admin Sparky work together to improve and uphold the current face of Niwa and keep us all moving forward!

They said this was a city for our kind, they said it was a safe haven from the rest of the world. This was suppose to be the city where we where safe from regular humans. But, in a city where Meta-Humans run rampant, is there such thing as safety? When taking what you want is as simple as waving your hand, or closing your eyes, how can there be law? In this city, the truth is there is only one source of law, and that are the different criminal organizations that have formed all around us. The only order is that of the darkest part of humanity, of criminal organizations where the strong thrive while the weak gasp for air. This is Niwa Nights.. This is our home.

Can you survive it?

Wait for Me?; Jon & Shae

Having it out with Peter had not been planned... she had promised Xander she would help him, but maybe it was the reality check they both needed. Shae’s own words echoed in her mind every time she thought about Jon... ‘I sabotage every personal relationship I have, I tell myself I am not ready or that it will never work out because I don’t believe that I deserve to be happy. I don’t think I am worth it.’ She had pushed him away when all she had wanted to do was pull him closer. Did he really have the patience in the world to wait forever? Did she really want to wait that long to find out?

The flowers and the note he had left for her were still in a vase by her bed. They were already wilting but she didn’t have the heart to throw them out. What if he never bought her anymore? It was easy to look at Peter and to see where he was broken, it was even easy to understand why he was broken. It was harder to look at herself and find the same answers. She knew she wasn’t all there, but she wanted to change that. She needed to.

He had wanted to talk about what happened that night, but Shae hadn’t been ready. She wanted to believe that she was protecting him, but really she had been protecting herself.

Living right across the hall from her, she knew the moment Jon came home. The elevator, the familiar steps that stopped directly outside her door. Only it wasn’t her door it was his. Courage, that one amazing thing she had never lacked for. That was the reason she pulled open her door. Dressed only in her pyjama short shorts and a shoestring midriff top ~ it wasn’t exactly police issue. Even her hair hung unbound down her back. But then he’d already seen her in the shower. Anything was a step up... right?

He would have heard the door open behind him the moment he was about to step into his own room. It suddenly occurred to her that she had never stepped foot into his room. She didn’t even know what kind of furniture he had. She stepped right out into the hallway, silently pulling the door closed behind her. Xander, as always, was passed out in the middle of her bed and this wasn’t something she particularly wanted to share with him. Jon however... Shae wanted to share so much with him.

The words just kind of stuck in her throat as she looked up at him, her knees going weak. At least he wasn’t wearing his uniform... but she could see the sleeves of his tattoos up each arm. Suddenly she wasn’t so sure of herself, she wasn’t sure he wanted to talk to her... had she waited too long? “Jon?” Please don’t be angry with me... “Can we talk?”

There was nothing else, only Jon drowning every one of her senses, she never imagined that it could be like this. She had loved Jacob, but he had been a lover. Jon felt like her best friend. There was no doubt in her mind that he would always accept her for who she was or what she was. He had only ever known her at worst ~ and he had still wanted to be with that person. He had been falling for that person.

The taste of his lips, the bliss of kissing him. The warmth of his touch as his fingers glided along her back. Shae squirmed slightly and almost dissolved into fits of laughter when his hands brushed over her ticklish sides. She wasn’t ticklish because she didn’t want to be touched... Shae was genuinely oversensitive. She wanted Jon to touch her more than anything. Regardless of her reason her lips turned into a smile making it next to impossible to continue kissing him.

Pulling back slightly Shae started to drown into his eyes again. She loved his crimson eyes so much, never more than the way he looked back up at her right then.

Next to him she felt plain and ordinary. Sure she could crash the entire stock market in the matter of seconds ~ but she was nothing special to look at. By Japanese standards her mixed heritage made her features too pronounced. A child of two worlds and even if she never considered herself pretty, Shae was still attractive in her own way. Her hand brushed into his teal coloured hair, letting the strands fall between her fingers. How was it possible for someone to naturally have hair that colour? And why was it so beautiful? The fact teal was her favourite colour was a complete coincidence.

A secret Vi confessed betraying to him.

How many other secrets that Shae held close to her heart had Vi shared with Jon?

Shae was not in any kind of rush, she wasn’t going anywhere and from the look he gave her ~ neither was Jon. That didn’t mean she was ready to let him go and unless he was going to chase her out of his room Shae had every intention of staying. Maybe under the covers wrapped in his arms where it was going to be warmer. “Can I stay with you tonight?” The question may have implied more, but her tone had been innocent. Even if she had gone back to her own bed she would have just laid there thinking about him.

When Shae shifted in his arms he smiled, she was ticklish~ he'd definitely take advantage of that sooner rather than later. Though just in fun, never to torment her. There was something different from the relationship that her and him had, and would always have. Jon would always see her as a best friend, but also someone he loved and cared for more then anyone else in this existence. The only one that could come close to that kind of love would be his mother, but that bond was on a different scale completely. Jon would only express these feelings to one, and one only. She would never have to worry about him being unfaithful or fear for him to leave for better. Because let's be honest, what's better then her?

Her hazel eyes put a sense of calm into his soul. They were something he'd get lost in every time she gazed at him. Oh how he loved to just stare in them all day and night, never to eat or sleep. She'd think him crazy, but her eyes were more unique then any he had ever seen. Maybe it was because they belonged to her, but he felt a certain individualistic feel.

It was so adorable how much she loved his hair, he couldn't help but chuckle softly. His hand that caressed her shoulder moved back to her hip and rubbed his thumb gently against her skin. The fact her favorite color was teal, and his hair was that color, only meant their bond was meant to be. Not many woman found his hair fun to look at, some even asked would he dye it to a more natural color. He'd only laugh, never giving them a straight answer. Jon felt his hair was a symbol of just how different he and the life he lived was. Because there was absolutely nothing normal about him.

Jon listened to her speak and leaned his head up and kissed her chin, "I wasn't going to let you leave even if you wanted to~" He teased. There was a sense of playfulness behind his words, because Shae knew Jon would never do anything she didn't want to do. Nor would he force her to stay if she wished to leave. Jon had waited this long to find the right one, and he was willing to wait even longer for her to be ready for whatever came next.

"So let me ask you something." He said with his hands holding her gently to him, "There is this place on the boardwalk, and because we didn't get to have our first date, I was wondering if you'd like to go to it? I think you'd love it." Jon was determined to take Shae out and do everything they could together. Go to the beaches, go to amusement parks together, local fairs and farmers markets. Jon wasn't normal, and nor was Shae, but they didn't mean they couldn't be an ordinary couple that went out and did everything other couples did.

His question made her frown slightly... they had gone out, not on a date though. It had been dinner which turned into ice cream that she had ended up cutting short and ruining when she pushed him away again. Maybe he was asking her for a do over. Shae would have given Jon all the do overs they needed to get it right. It wasn’t that she wanted everything to be perfect, Jon was already pretty close to being perfect, she was the one who was a mess.

“I would like that, and we could say it is our first date. As in a date date and not dinner.” Shae offered him a warm smile. She wanted to forget all about children getting covered in ice cream and painting his face with hot chocolate and in pushing him away. Maybe it was his way of saying they could make it something special. Her shiver was light and completely involuntary, giving her even more reason to snuggle that little bit closer. “I am sorry for what happened... and I’m sorry for getting you shot.” Her eyes softened completely with the last apology. He still had not said anything to her about it, and that had been most of her guilt ridden reason for avoiding him in the first place.

“That was why I was being dumb distant.” Once she started to open up, there was really no stopping her. “You never told me and you played it down... and I know you did it because you didn’t want me to feel guilty. But that made me feel even worse.” She closed her eyes taking a deep breath. “I was supposed to be keeping you safe, not putting you in danger.” Opening her eyes again she wanted to drown in his red gaze. “I don’t ever want to be the reason you get hurt.”

Jon may have been prepared to wait for her, but it would have taken an eternity for Shae to forgive herself for that. She was so fragile and so human. There was no way she would have been able to protect him, but she would have thrown herself into the line of fire to save him anyway. He was just going to have to accept that she did courageous and reckless things at times. It was something she would do for complete strangers and even more so for the people she loved.

Could she just go back to kissing Jon now?

Feeling awkward and silly was a natural state for Shae. But she wanted to be so much more for him than the girl walking by with the ‘kick me’ sticker on her back... which was less likely to happen now that she was promoted. After the serve she had given Peter, she didn’t put it past the Captain to do that to her.

Jon just smiled, his fingers running through her hair and holding her close. "Good. I'll make it the best first date you've ever had." He said with a small chuckle.

He let out a soft sigh through his nose, and very lightly shook his head. There were many reasons why he hadn't told Shae he had been shot that day. One was that he didn't want her to feel guilty, but there were more reasons then just that. Another was that he was alright, another was that it was part of his job. If it weren't Shae, then it would've been another civilian. He knew the risks of his job, and getting shot a few times in the arm was something that literally was in his job description. He was sure it was in the fine print somewhere.

Shae was acting like his protector, and it was absolutely adorable. He was the one that needed to protect her. "Hon, listen." Jon pushed himself up, taking Shae with him. Letting her sit in his lap, he wrapped his arms around her back and looked into her eyes. She could still lean on him if she wanted, he encouraged it as he leaned forward and pressed his forehead against hers. "Firstly, stop apologizing for that night." He was too understanding, but for Shae it was understandable. Nothing she could ever do would be so bad that he couldn't find it in his heart to forgive.

"Secondly, I didn't tell you because I've had worse happen then a few bullets to my arms. You need to understand something, and understand it very well." Jon's hands moved from around her and found their way up Shae's side to her shoulders. They trailed up and pressed against her cheeks. "I'd take a million bullets for you. I'd step in front of a train for you. I'd die for you. Not just because it is my job, either. It's because I care for you, too. When I saw you that day at the café, Shae I would've taken that away from you in a heart beat." He had passion in his eyes when he spoke. Love that flooded through him made it apparent in the way he caressed her cheeks.

He kissed her, briefly but nevertheless he had to. When he pulled back he moved his hands away from her cheeks and brought them down to her waist once more and rested them there. There was a smile across his face as he looked back into her hazel eyes, "It's a good thing you weren't around when I lost my arm. If a few bullets could keep you from talking to me for a week, I couldn't imagine how you would've reacted that that." Jon teased her, leaning forward and kissing her nose.

“I would like that.” Shae offered him a warm smile. Maybe he was asking her for a do over. Shae would have given Jon all the do overs they needed to get it right. It wasn’t that she wanted everything to be perfect, Jon was already pretty close to being perfect, she was the one who was a mess.

That she had signed up for the same job description escaped her most of the time... but Shae had the extra added clause in there that said she was responsible for everyone else as well. He sat up and she refused to let him go. It was a sweet kind of chastisement and she drew an imaginary zipper across her lips, turned the key in the lock and threw it away, all the while trying to suppress her own smile.

Being told that he would have taken a million bullets for her... it was something she was not exactly equipped to respond to. There was a part of her which still wanted to defend and protect him... and then there was the other part that melted into a swooning puddle. Her hand brushed against his cheek, her eyes moving between his eyes and his lips as he spoke. Shae felt every single word he spoke, it wasn’t that she heard them or understood them, she felt them and knew he would have done exactly that.

It was what every woman dreamed of finding. He was her knight in shining armour. He had been prepared to wait for her, and all she had to give him was her heart. But wasn’t that the whole point. She was meant to meet someone and fall madly in love... otherwise they weren’t doing it right. Shae wanted passion and love, she didn’t want something that was comfortable or familiar.

Her teeth clamped onto her bottom lip again and she struggled with the impulsive desire to start kissing him again. She managed to turn slightly where she sat on his waist. There was even a second she started wondering if she was heavy... because honestly, the few times in her life other people had sat on her they almost crushed her. Of course all of those times had been by mistake ~ usually on public transport.

Somehow she managed to find the perfect place to cuddle into his left side, her fingers lifting to lightly brush along the scar which encircled his right shoulder. She probably could have found out what happened, pulled his files until it showed up somewhere. But it would never have meant as much as the words from his own lips. “Tell me what happened?” Her voice was soft, gentle. She was the last person in the world to judge. When she was able to concentrate she could feel the software portion of his cybernetics, but the connection was not direct enough for her to influence the program. Not that she would have without a damn good reason or at his request.

Jon was going to tell her one day, he was actually surprised that she didn't know. It wasn't something he wanted hidden from the other officers, so one look at his fire they'd see what was called the 'Tower Dive'. When he recovered and was able to go back to work his fellow officers joked around and called him a stunt man that didn't know how to do his job properly. It was all in good fun, so he didn't mind it. He even played along, granted at first he didn't because of the sensitive nature of the accident, but after a while he got in on the fun. His left arm wrapped around her and pulled her close, pressing his cheek against her head he took a deep breath and smiled.

"It was so stupid of me, but I was young and reckless with my powers." He started, it's best to let people know how stupid he was before telling the story. They should know he knew what he did was not smart. "I was chasing a crook and he took off onto the roof of a... mmm I can't remember how many flights, but it was really high. He was a meta and he jumped across a building that no normal human could fathom doing. I, assuming I was just as strong, tried to jump the gap and unfortunately I missed by a good few feet. Long story short I met the ground, silly of me to put my hand down on the ground like I did. But I shattered..." He put his hand down into her lap, wiggling his fingers around and tugging at her clothes playfully. "Every bone in my arm. Thankfully they were able to give me a cybernetic one, which works just as good as my real one."

Jon shifted his shoulder, she'd hear a small click and then what would sound like metal rubbing together. It wasn't broken, heavens no he got that thing looked at every three months, no it was just something he could do. "It's definitely not something I'll forget." His eyes shifted from looking at his arm to Shae, "Just like I could never forget you." He had to add something sweet in there, after all that's who he was.

His right arm moved up from her lap and brushed against her cheek. He put his hand under her chin and lifted her head up. His eyes meeting hers as he gazed into them. He couldn't resist her, it was impossible to not kiss her lips. So he wouldn't fight it, there was no need to. He brushed his lips softly against hers, before fully pressing them together. Jon was gentle, he wouldn't keep her there if she pulled away, but he couldn't NOT feel her lips against his once again. It was like asking a cat to put down the cat nip. It was just impossible.

Shae sat there, nestled into Jon’s chest listening to the steady beat of his heart and the story he told. Every story that started with an admission of stupidity was bound to end badly. She traced along the scar as he spoke, trying not to wince. She could not have imagined what that felt like. The pain must have been unbearable... he was right, she wouldn’t have been able to speak to him ever again if she had been responsible for something like that. She wanted to ask how much he could still feel, whether he was every bit as sensitive. But the moment he finished telling her what happened her world dissolved into warmth and compassion again.

Had it ever really stopped?

The way he lifted her chin and looked into her eyes, she was falling all over again. Every time she thought she had fallen as far as she could, her heart betrayed her and kept going. He was perfect, every part of him made her heart beat that much faster, he made her cheeks flush with colour. Not for one second did she ever believe she would be in his arms, or that his lips would be pressed against hers.

And kissing him....... everything was all so new, but there was still that nervous anticipation before his lips met with hers. Her breath catching in her throat and her brain melted into that same warm fuzzy feeling as her stomach. And that was all before he actually kissed her. He was not holding her there, Shae was exactly where she wanted to be, with exactly who she wanted to be with. And she was falling so hard and so fast for him. For the first time she let herself feel everything she did for Jon without the guilt or the fear she would hurt him.

He was everything she wanted and she refused to run away from that, or from him. Not now, and never again.

Her hand curled against his chest, gripping lighting into the top he wore. Shae was just as unwilling to let him go and every bit as intoxicated by Jon as he was her. Maybe even more so, because from the moment she arrived at that place she couldn’t let go, she refused to.

The kiss would have deepened and she would have lost herself to the pure abandon and bliss of being so close to him. She was already missing the feeling of his hand which teased along the bottom of her top along her ribs. But she was curled up on his lap and losing the ability to think rationally ... how did it get better that that?
