As Raps stood there alone in the darkness he started wondering still about how the events of tonight came to place. Sure, she was a creature of darkness like he was, but he was on a completely different level of darkness.
He sighed to himself as his emerald glowing eyes lit up the dark corner he was standing in. He looked down at his right hand and shook his head. His hand was trembling slightly as Raps pulled back his sleeve to reveal a symbol that seemed to be ingrained into his skin in black ink.
Raps knew that it wasn't ink, it was a symbol that has been on him for as long as he could remember. He gritted his teeth as the symbol started to glow white and fade back into black. He slapped his arm with his left hand and squeezed it tightly. He tried to numb the pain away, but it was futile. He sighed in defeat and pushed off against the wall and walked deeper down the alleyway.
As he walked the darkness of the alley he wondered to himself, "What the hell is Garnet, and that nobody doing...I wonder if they're done..." He looked up at the stars and remembered that he was supposed to wait for Garnet to get him. He shook his head lightly and punched a wall making it crumble and fall to the ground.
He stepped into the empty room and spotted a chair next to a table. He pulled the chair out and sat down to rest his head in his arms against the table. "Nothing to do, but wait now..."

The cat started rubbing up against her leg. Bending over to the black furred animal, she patted its little head as award for giving her an idea. Xivians powers had come in handy various of times when she needed something. Her mind was always active to somehow link her powers to a problem needed to be solved. And sometimes even an object, or in this case a cute black kitten, helped her with it.
The cat started spinning.
With an empty gaze she continued watching the cat being affected by her hand stroking along its back, she listened to the voice ever so cold of the nobody behind her. She asked for her name but didn't feel like answering just yet. She'd wait until she had her problem solved without leaving any traces. Her problem really was the fact she didn't know what she could offer the nobody to get some help in exchange. She could of expected the russet being wouldn't just help her without any cost to it. What could the grey eyed nobody possibly offer her? Indeed, nothing. She had to obtain that kind of information first, in her own way - Art of Valentine.
However Xivian was planning on using her powers to find a way of getting herself a deal, she had to be really cautious. This technique she wanted to use would make it able for her to transmit herself temporary into the shell that went by the name Garnet. Once having returned to her own, she then would have some of the nobody's memories which of she could see if there was something the nobody wanted. This should go smoothly without having the nobody noticing she, the dark creature she was, was within her, unless she'd accidentally control her actions which would obviously inform against. The problem was, Xivian never had tried using this technique this exact way. She could only hope things to go smoothly. Though, she knew still had to play her cards right.
Xivian picked the cat up. Extracting herself now from her heartless body, she uses her hand as a pathway to transmit herself inside the cat. The eye color of the nobody slowly started to vanish, becoming a pale now she flew out, slowly filling up the little creature still cradled by the arms of her heartless body that was to remain empty.
A sudden blend of emotions overflew her, rather tormenting, but was quick enough to put them under her control, placing them far in the background of the heart she now carried. As a nobody she wasn't used to the feel of emotions, giving her a rather hard time to bear them. But it seemed as though there had been some upturn. It hadn't been much of a torture as the first time she remembered using the technique.
Xivian who was now controlling the cats actions, crawled out of her own arms, with her now four legged and furred small body, taking a leap over her own shoulder, perfectly landing on her black furred paws that were now hers. Her tail swished elegant behind her as she paced to wards the crimson eyed nobody having her rifle still beside her. To come over naturally she mew a couple times and rubbed the cats little head against the nobodies leg, hoping the activity wouldn't come to the young womans notice or would finally use her gun to its purpose.

[Yes. Though it isn't really empty.]
The cat had been picked up by the nobody and forced to look her in the eye, hearing the whispers of words. Xivian couldn't help but smirk to herself as she had already taken step 2 - transmitting herself into the nobody who was looking in the cats face with her ruby eyes. Though she had to admit the nobody was smarted than she had thought. But the fact the nobody was keeping herself busy with finding out what the wine-red haired creature was planning on doing, made it only easier for her to remain for at least ten seconds inside the shell without her noticing. Also it was rather an advantage the ruby eyed one did not know anything about her or her abillities. She could easily lie herself out of this.
1, 2 ,3..
As Xivians soul flew inside the nobody while having made direct contact, images started to fill her from the inside. Some where blur, some were clear. But she didn't have the time to pick out any particulair images. She just had to let herself be submerged by the images and hope there were any she could use.
4 ,5 , 6..
The nobody who had transmitted her soul, tried her hardest to remain the shell she was in still. Due to her always using the technique to control ones actions she tended to act quick, having her mind focused on what step was next to take and when to leave before doing any damage. Now she had to concentrate on different things. It made it even harder now ten seconds felt like ten minutes.
7..8..9
The soul was still recording the images that came in no particular order. They just seem to rush in. But then, withing the last second, against her own plans, Xivian accidently orders the young womans body, to let go of the furred little creature.
10.
Luck seemed to be on her side though when she rapidly transmits herself back to the cat, landing once again on her four paws.

She had been so wrong when thinking she'd get away with her technique just fine. The nobody with her ridiculous long gun had rapidly responded with aiming and shooting at the cat Xivian was still controlling and knew how to dodge the first bullet - or something like a bullet - leaping to her own motionless body, she let the cat free in mere seconds from her soul as it was just a useless little creature to her now. The second and third bullet coming from the skillful nobody, rapidly followed. Xivian wasn't able to see if the cat had been hit by them, she only cared for her own well being, and rapidly jumped up, knowing the nobody would aim for her. Her actions had been noticed after all.
What had happened? How did she find out? Or were her actions only coming from guessing? No. She had said "get off". She knew.
"Heh. Little witch.", she muttered.
Once being high in the sky but still able to see the girl, she let herself glide back wards with the wind that was raging on the hight she had reached, reducing with the amount of feet she descended. Her heeled boots crashed onto the concrete, she looked further ahead to the nobody with her grey empty eyes. Unusually, she didn't send out a wave of dark energy when landing. She had no reason for harming the other just yet. She even decided to call it a night as it seemed she had upset the russet. Staying would be unfortunate for her in many ways, she knew.
With a last glance to the town square she looked at the cat that was lying motionless on the concrete, being hit, knowing that if she hadn't left that quickly it would have been her dealing whatever damage it would do to her.
"What a waste.."
A inky portal then covered the concrete and Xivian let herself subside in the corridors of darkness leaving the other nobody with a small cackle and some words coming from her lips, pulled back in a smirk.
"We'll meet again, darling."

Raps had awakened from the darkness and heard the gunshots that broke the silence of the night. He pushed off against the wall and jumped out the hole he had created. He stared down the alleyway with his glowing emerald eyes before rushing back towards where he had left Garnet.
He kept wondering in his mind, "Why am I rushing...Garnet seemed like she could take care of herself..." He shook the thought from his mind and decided in his mind, "It doesn't matter I'm coming to see what's going on no matter what..."
Raps unsheathed Xenarshe from his left hip and dragged it against the walls of the buildings he rushed past. His sword left a huge gap in the walls he passed while he kept running.
When he finally made it back to Garnet he spotted the other nobody walking away from her. Raps walked slowly over to her and kept his hand gently on the handle of his sword. When he came within 10 paces of Garnet he asked her, "Garnet? What happened while i was gone?"

(OMG!!! you slayed the little guy ) Raps knew full well that he should not have been butting into her business, yet he had some sort of instinct nudging against his side that said he should be. He sheathed Xenarshe back into its rightful place at his left hip before watching Garnet slump over towards the wall. She had left bloody footsteps in her way while she stood there against the wall. Then something happened that Raps had never expected. She had dropped the gun. Garnet didn't seem like the person to drop her weapon so easily. Whatever happened just now had a serious affect on her. He closed his eyes slowly and sighed a bit as he thought to himself, "I would continue to pesture her about this yet...it seems that her body is saying no to my own question..." He shrugged his shoulders and opened his eyes to see the sun slowly rising over the town. He smirked a bit and thought to himself, "Well, this night sure has turned out to be an interesting one..." He returned his gaze over to Garnet who seemed to be a little bit calmer now. She had reached down to retrieve her gun and walk towards the cat ont he ground. She stopped and picked the kitten up as well as she made a slight comment about his race. He chuckled a bit and thought to himself, "So she has the basic information about my people...must not dissapoint her then..." He followed her footsteps and closed the gap between them before asking her, "So where exactly do you plan on us hiding away from the light then..." While he asked his question he suddenly noticed that Garnet looked slightly different in the light. Her clothes shined a bit more brightly which gave him a eery feeling since he was so used to her cold ways from just an hour or so earlier. He shrugged the thought off slightly and awaited her answer to his question.

Raps had followed the nobody blindly. He knew nothing of where she would take him and yet he didn't care really. She seemed quite interesting enough for him to continue his aimless wondering on. He shrugged his shoulders from under his cloak and suddenly heard the ear wrenching scream come from where he just was.
A smirk crept its way slowly across his face as he suddenly realized that some civilian must have seen his blood mark against the wall. He turned his attention back onto Garnet and suddenly realized that he was standing at the mouth of a cave. She hadn't hesitated in entering the cave so he assumed she knew the place very well.
He walked into it and kept caution as he noticed the cave was suddenly was lit up by the dim glow of certain crystals that decorated the walls. He looked over his shoulder and noticed Garnet burying the poor kitten in a corner and then it hit him.
He looked down at her before asking, "I thought nobodies didn't care about creatures of any such kind like those..."
(srry..school has kept me pretty occupied)

Raps quickly batted the clumps of dirt away with the back of his right hand and sighed. He noticed that ever since that other nobody had interrupted their conversation Garnet had been in this fit. "Was there something about their meeting that had included me in some way?" He thought to himself as he realized most of her anger had been directed at him lately.
He looked down at the kitten and carefully ran his emerald eyes over the lifeless body. For sure the kitten deserved a burial, but why...why would Garnet of all people want to do this? The puzzle kept rattling against the walls of his mind. He looked over at Garnet and was somewhat saddened at the sight. There was something always bothering her and he wasn't much help to her at all. He closed his eyes and shook his head a bit before turning around and walking back out of the cavern.
He stopped just at the entrance of the cavern and he thought to himself, "I'll leave her be...She doesn't need to deal with a creature like me anyways, her life is bothersome enough being a nobody." He pulled his hood gently over his spiked hair and let it hang gently over his eyes. His black bangs hovered in front of his vision and he smirked a bit as he stood there.
He was smirking because he just realized that he had just spent his entire night with; of all things a female. He couldn't help but wonder what his brother Semre or Ty might have thought about this if they were here. Semre would most likely be in a un-breakable shock, while Ty would probably be too busy in his own little world to even be able to comprehend how abnormal it was for Raps to even be in this kind of situation.
The thought calmed down his desires for fun, and he just stood there watching the sun slowly, and yet in a calm way rise over the town. "As the darkness of the night dies down...the light of hope rises from the shadows..."

Raps felt Garnet's presence tand next to him. He smirked a bit as he watched the sun with his emerald eyes and waited...just waited for what Garnet would do next. To him Garnet was a mystery that would be fun to unravel, but time would've been against him.
He watched he walk the dirt road back into the town. She didn't stop...not once to say the words to him. Instead she just kept walking...her crimson outfit swayed with the wind as she disappeared from his sight. Raps shook his head as the crimson figure of her's disappeared and all that was left was the silence. Oh how he hated the silence that was left when no one would stand with him in this moment.
He sighed a bit and returned to the cavern to where Garnet hadbeen working on a grave for the kitten. He couldn't spot much int he dim light, but he did notice the somewhat unleveled patch of dirt under a crystal. He walked over to it and placed his hand gently against the earth as he thought, "Rest...in piece. Even you should be able to accomplish that small purpose."
he got up and closed his eyes as he continued in his thoughts, "I on the other hand...could never rest...no...he wouldn't let me..." He opened up his eyes and the left eye of Raps's had turned blood red. He stared down at the ground and said in a low whisper, "Zeke...I'll finish this someday..."
(np school does this at times.)
