When the petite avian landed on his shoulder, beginning to chirp a tune that fell on deaf ears the males eyebrows furrowed lightly. "Tch..." One arm raised lazily from his pocket before he flicked the creature away, spending it spiralling towards a wall. The girl was naive to say the least, she still smelled fresh, probably only a couple of hundred years old. Still a pup in many other vampire's eyes. She wouldn't be any real danger to anyone in the club, rather with her flamboyant use of her powers she would be more of a danger to herself. Spike didn't care much about her safety, so he lost interest quickly and decided to find something else to do.
That's when he felt his phone vibrate in his pocket, fishing it out and flicking it on he quickly glanced over the new text message, eyes lightening a little bit. Seemed some business had popped up at just the right time. He vanished again, appearing a few minutes later at the bar, right beside Nina without so much as a noise before he opened his mouth, directing his voice towards the bartender. "Oi, flick the switch. Shit jus' got interestin'. Jus' got word that some douche is comin' 'ere for the Rumble." Spike spoke with an almost childlike amusement and there was a reason for it. Despite his docile and lazy demeanour, Spike had a slight lust for battle. The best way he had found to keep that in check was to simply fight, not just until someone won, but until someone died.
You would have thought that kept most people from fighting, but the prize for killing Spike was everything he owed. All those possessions meant that Spike was able to get enough killing to keep his lust down and his fangs sharp.
The bartender nodded lightly and moved to the backroom to set the arena up. Suddenly the music completely stopped, everyone suddenly moved away from the large marked dancefloor, knowing what was happening. Moments later the dance floor began to lower, moving down a good twenty metres before stopping. It was a little something Spike coxed up to serve his fighting needs. Bouncers quickly moved, setting up barricades around the large pit to avoid others falling in.
Soon the fight would begin and yet again the sudden illusive owner had vanished as the contender hopped into the arena, preparing himself for the fight. The male stunk of an alpha of a wolf pack, probably a local gang leader that wanted to hit it big. This fight might just prove more interesting than anyone first thought.

. the vampire pushed her way through the crowd until she was right up against the barricades. what exactly was this club? the female mused eyes scanning over the crowd. they seemed to know what was going on. how odd. she settled herself next to a bouncer and low and behold it was her buddy from the front door. "eh no hard feelings?" the female gave him a sheepish smile and he just laughed shaking his head. still this place was very interesting as were the people who seemed to be running it. the power inside her began to leak out a bit creating a small frost on her skin and on the barricade in front of her. there was something about the male vampire that seemed to tug at her awareness. something familiar but not. there was almost a shock to him. she wondered if his element was electricity.
. after all of this she would have a few words with him. he seemed much older then her and perhaps had a bit more control over his element. she could never keep the cold from leaking out of her. despite all of the extensive training she did, the ice always seemed to control her. her mind wandered every which way as she waited for the supposed battle to start. perhaps she would get a word in with the werewolf and vampire. they seemed to be in charge of everything. she could get some tips from them about where to place her restaurant. maybe coming here wasn't a complete waste after all. the female grinned as her breath and those around her because visible.

SWIMMING IN A FISHBOWL YEAR AFTER YEAR
“ Miss McFrosty walked up to the bar and the kid’s eyes were nearly falling out of his head. She chuckled inwardly.
“Credo,” the kid finally managed. “Credo Zimere-Tezaj. Yours?”
She took another puff from the cigarette, eyeing him for a moment, thoughts hidden in the sweat and smoke of the club.
“Nina,” she finally said. “Nina Buchanan. Nice to meet you.” She flicked her ashes into the brass tray on the bar in front of her, crusted with black, parting gifts from the cigarettes of previous customers.
“So, what brings you to our little-”
Spike appeared next to her, interrupting her line of questions. She didn’t bother startling; she had gotten used to it. His words weren’t for her but for the bartender instead.
“Oi, flick the switch. Shit jus' got interestin'. Jus' got word that some douche is comin' 'ere for the Rumble."
Nina glared at the ashtray for a minute before taking a final puff and grinding the cigarette away.
“Dumbasses,” she muttered, raking her fingers through her hair. Every time someone came knocking for Spike’s head on a pike, her stomach knotted up and her fingers forgot what to do with themselves. Her worry that it would be a friend or, worse, that Spike would actually lose, was a chasm in the pit of her stomach. So far, neither of those had ever proven anything more than her being a mother hen, but her fast sharpening teeth were still gnawing her bottom lip to a bloody mess.
She looked at Credo. “I’m headed over there. You’re welcome to come along, if you like. I’ll save you a seat.”
And with that, she rose, muscles steadily becoming more defined, hair raising in the manner of hackles.
Protect, everything in her screamed. Neutralize the threat.
She denied everything wolf in her, even as her pupils thinned, even as her fingernails elongated into claws. Nina denied every instinct as she walked up to the barricade, placed her palms on it to take a look, see who the newest contender was.
Lo and behold, it was the alpha from before, the alpha she was planning to find and fuck and use as self-empowerment. A snarl escaped her, echoing through the ring below like a feral roar. Though it was hardly distinguishable from the cacophony of primal screams from the bloodthirsty crowd about her, he turned and found her eyes in the crowd.
With a wink, he gave her a thumbs up and turned back to face the center.
The barricade started to crumble in her grip.

~Barricades~ [/i][/u] Taking another sip from his glass he turned his attention back to the she-wolf, he watched the end of her cigarette burn an uncertain shape into the dark of the club. The smoke flowed from her lips like a river of grey. He never minded smoking much. But he had heard that second hand smoke is the worst. Credo paid it no mind though, human ailments did not affect him. He had very, very low chances of contracting something like the flu, or developing lung cancer.
“Nina" she said in a cool and steady tone. “Nina Buchanan. Nice to meet you.”
Nina. A common name, but it fit her. She seemed nice enough, but she had that wolfish vibe about her. Ready to fight at any given moment. That's probably she was here. Maybe she was a bouncer? Or a dancer? Her body said dancer, but her attitude said kick your ass.
“So, what brings you to our little-”
Just then a man appeared right next to Nina's stool. She was not bothered by his sudden appearance, so close to her. But he was startled instantly by it. Who wouldnt be frazzled by the sight of a dude suddenly poofing in front of you? But of course, Credo was easily startled by this sort of thing anyway. Even though he towered over most people, he was still a little kid.
After tossing a couple of words to the bartender behind the bar, he nodded disappeared into a room in the back. The music stopped and everyone cleared the dance floor. Credo was too busy staring at the large figure behind Nina before he heard a bellow and felt the floor quiver beneath him. The dance floor had transformed into some sort of caged area. Barricades boxing it in in the form of what looked like an arena.
"Whoa...", the words left his mouth in a whisper and his eyes were wide with curiosity. Nina rubbed the butt of her cigg into the ash tray and stood. “I’m headed over there. You’re welcome to come along, if you like. I’ll save you a seat.”[/color], and with that she made her way to the barricades. "Oh, okay." he responded, watching her walk over to the walls of the small arena. He finished his drink and left the money under the glass, padding behind her and eyeing the barricades. Looks like this place was more than just a night club after all. And it probably had even more surprises in store for him tonight. [/center][/size]
