Info:
The title might still get changed as well as some details
So we can play with 2-4 people
- minimum is 2-3 sentences , no one liners!
- we want to get this running so if you are not online on regular base it would all get stuck at some point
- there is the storyline, but I am open to new ideas and characters ^^ so feel free, be creative

Elaine was born and still lives in a little town near the sea. She was always a very quiet withdrawn child . When she was about 4 she started to talk to nothing... People thought she was just one of the girls going through the invisible friend period but that wasn't the case. Elaine turned out to have a special gift, she is a medium.
Spirits started crowding her life and engrossed her. She was scared and confused until one of the spirits became her friend and helped her to keep the others away. Over the years they became best friends, sisters, living as one.

As Elaine turned 18 she fell in love for the first time... Samuel was mysterious, interesting, kind of bad boy but gentle..but as gentle as he was, as evil and unpredictable he could be... Letting it out on other people but always understanding and fair to her... He also had a darker secret... the reason he could be so evil was because he was a fallen angel ... He was madly in love with her from the moment he saw her dance on stage that day he bothered to attend human entertainment.

The spirit lived inside Elaine, supported and protected her. All was fine, until the spirit met Mason, through Elaine of course... A handsome young man who started teaching at Elaine' s school. The spirit fell for him, step by step, and started to become restless. Because of their deep connection it affected Elaine too. It starts to become complicated when the Spirit started to look for a way to make Mason aware of her affection.
For some reason though he was able to see the spirit...what was he?
He falls in love with her too but because of their difference they will never be able to touch and embody their love...the only chance they have would be a medium...her best friend?!

What will Elaine do?
She loves the angel and spirit loves the teacher. Is their friendship that strong that Elaine might consider letting the Spirit use her as a vessel ? Or will their friendship break apart leaving them both heartbroken? And how will the guys deal with that problem?!

The RP starts before the night of the dance

I'll be Mason if you want,

Sure

thanks!

Awesome, do I need to put up a character sheet or shall I just create his character as I go along?

( its entirely up to u. You can create him more or less, how he came to be psychic, near death experience or whatever , this is your chara now hehe so a sheet is always nice I think to make it more a person than.just a chara )

(do I need to post a picture of Elaine xD since her whole bio is in the story =P )

Name: Samuel Grigori
Bio
Samuel is one of the Fallen, a watcher, escaped before they had a chance to clip his wings and one that even his fellows avoid to get into trouble with because he is one of the most powerful kinds..evil and a ruthless killer but the most human of them.
He is bored of his long life...stuck with the other fallen ones, all the stupid nephilim issues and fights with about them who posses which nephilim...bla bla ....all about...well nothing really.
Women are way to easy to get...with his body and looks it didn't take much, but even that can't entertain him for long.
Humans are funny creatures...they run out of time so easily so they make the best out of it.
Arts and Music was one thing that he enjoyed throughout his damn long life and one night he wanted to see something new he didn't bother with before...a musical dance show...modern dance.

(btw... Samuel is super hot o.o ... no wonder Elaine fell for him Razz

name: Natalie
age: unknown, she looks like 18 but no one knows her actual age
race: spirit
bio: Natalie was wandering around the town looking for someone to talk to. Then one day this young girl appears, just about 6 years old. She noticed the girl looked her right in the eyes and smiled. Natalie started to talk to this girl and visited her whenever she felt the need to. Then one day, she noticed that this girl can speak with other spirits too. Natalie was mad. Some evil spirit tried to hurt this girl and she saved her. Sending the spirit to rest. The girl, Elaine, became her one and only friend in this world. They became close and as the years pass they became sisters. No one believed Elaine that she can see spirits or even talk to them, but that didn't matter to Natalie. What mattered was that she wasn't alone after centuries of loneliness. Up until this day, when Elaine turned 18 years old Natalie stayed by her side, watching for any danger lurking from the shadows.

( i so knew you would like him hihihihi me like too lol )

(ok... my sis asked me to start so here goes breaking the ice =) )

Ok, this is your big moment. The whole town will be watching you. Don't fall down and break something, or do anything stupid like that to humiliate yourself Elaine's mind was comforting her. It was doing better job than her shaky hands and her not so steady breath. She was nervous. Stage fright. Her first performance of the Swan Lake in front of the whole town. They were proud of her of course. The big celebrity. And only 18 years old. Jealous, but proud. There was another person who was proud of her. Natalie. She was her best friend, her sister, her family, but also, Natalie was a spirit. Freaky huh? Elaine lost her parents at the age of 4. That was when first spirit appeared and talked to her. People called her insane, mentally unstable. But she pulled it trough. And with the local hospital dance studio (well, people need to be occupied with something) and with her turning 18, she finally managed to get trough. As the doctor said, her condition stabilized and she wasn't "insane" anymore. But Elaine never was on a stage before, and she was scared. She always danced in the studio of course, but this was different. Bigger deal. She looked at her sister and said, not out loud of course, but in her mind. "I don't think I can make it." She was afraid of failure.

"Don't be scared. I'm here with you all the way. You will do great." Natalie smiled at her sister. She was always here for her. She was the only thing that kept her from going insane and murdering everyone in this place. Natalie was alone for centuries. Until the day she saw Elaine, and Elaine, finally saw her. Natalie even helped Elaine with her history homework. At least some good deed to repay herself to her, because she was more here for Natalie then Natalie was for her. But as Elaine grew, so did Natalie. Somehow her physical form adapted to the modern age and she looked 18. Like Elaine. When her sister finally went to the stage after the big announcement applause the citizens gave her, she stood in the backstage with a smile on her face.

"by all means...what's with all the pushing and lines...urgh"....Samuel was annoyed already and he didn't even enter the Theater yet. The people behaved like there was no seats left. he looked at his ticket, "A 13", printed in bold big letters and numbers. He bought it 2 weeks ago, well he didn't pay for it of course...why would he?! All he needed was a little suggestion that he was the 100st buyer so he would get it for free, added with a little mind flick. It really was too easy and he considered to try using money next time, for a change.
Anyway he had to calm himself not to rip out someones heart and he didn't want to get his hands dirty today.
When he finally was in and sat in his seat he looked around. The stage was low so, he had a great view. The set was simple, the orchestra was at the back covered only by a semi transparent screen and they bothered to even use real flowers and trees. That way the dancers would stand out more he thought.
The show would begin in 5 minutes. swan lake...a piece of art...classic and performed all over the world, made into movies and known by everyone. Usually it takes the best dancers to perform it well so he was eager to see what modern version the humans made out of this classic piece

The moment the music dance, her fear washed away. She felt the beat, the rhythm , the sweet melody of the violins. Elaine started to move her well trained steps. The swan dress was beautiful. Snowy white feathers were falling from her dress as she made the triple spin and continued to move graciously trough the stage. Every beat the orchestra made she copied with her body. The music and herself were one. She didn't care about the rest of the dancers, she knew they were there, but half of the time she didn't see them because her eyes were shut. She knew they were all well trained so there is no chance of someone bumping into her or vice versa. Elaine was alive. As always when she listens to the music. Each melody brings her different feelings. There is no difference on the stage. She felt passion when the prince came, she felt danger when the swans were restless, she felt every single note.

Natalie was proud of her sister. If she was human she would be crying by now, like a real sister would do. But being here was enough for Elaine, she knew that. Natalie couldn't keep her eyes off of er sister as she watched her dance. She truly is an amazing dancer.

( skype crashed...again sigh )
The show started. The musicians were pretty good considering this was a small town and no one a professional. He leaned back and closed my eyes listening to the sweey notes of the overture.
It was time for the swans and he opened his eyes watching the.dancers take over the stage.
They were all well trained dancing like there were one with the music.
Suddenly the white swan appeared and it was like the music became alive.
He had to sit up to watch the mesmerizing creature. She was like music and the music was her gliding over the stage with featherlight moves. She was beautiful and talented.
As the black swan she was even more stunning it gave him a shiver.
He was awed by this young human girl. She had something that all the others lacked.
True beauty. The last scene came and it was the moment when she laid eyes on his.
And it made him smile, a real smile that just came to his lips.

( ok I edit to make this a tad faster so Saura doesn't have to wait too long xD )

He stood up and left before the rest of the mob would do so. He was tingling all over with anticipation.
Something just happened which he wasn't even aware of being possible. In all these centuries he never felt anything like it.
He hurried to buy a single black rose that he paid for and added a silky black ribbon and a small card to it.
Inside he placed a single black tipped white down in it. He wanted to write something but he couldn't find the right words.
He stole himself to the changing room and placed the rose onto what must be her dresser and left.
He didn't want to approach her as bold as he usually does as she was way too special for that, so he jumped up to one of the deserted balconies that overlooked the back stage door of the entrance.

( Saura if you want to post something as a pre story you can do so of course ^^ )

(It's okay, I'll wait. I'll work on my character sheet and a back story in the mean time ^^)

The show lasted forever for Elaine. Every time she dances she looses track of time. When the show finally did end she was kind of sad. She wanted to dance more, that is why she made a mental note to herself to train when she gets home. Train with Natalie of course. Natalie was the one responsible for her good dancing. She was the one that knew the routine of the Swan Lake by heart and trained her to the very detail of chin position. When she got to her locker and opened it, there was a black rose inside. The rose was beautiful. The ribbon, that was also black matched perfectly with the contrast of green and black rose. She was stunned by the rose, but it was also a bit awkward. Who would give her a black rose? She looked at Natalie who was standing behind her. "Who did this?"

Natalie was stunned by the rose too. "Oh my god it's so beautiful! I don't know who this is but he obviously has a good taste." She smiled at her sister and tried to take the rose from her hand. But when she reached the rose she remembered that she was a spirit and that she can't touch living objects. So she just leaned her hand on Elaine's and tried to feel the rose trough connection. But, something strange happened. She felt something was wrong with the rose. Natalie didn't want to alarm her friend so she hid her fear and smiled. "It feels beautiful. Come on, lets go home, I'm sure you need some rest after the show."

"Hell no! I want to dance when I get home!" Elaine grinned at her friend and with arm to arm they left the dressing room. The trip to her house was a short one, but even though they were lights lit everywhere on the street she felt like someone was hiding and watching her. She put that thought away as she approached the door and unlocked them. Elaine looked at her friend and with a smile on the face ran to the training room, well, it is actually a basement turned into a training room. She put her ballet shoes on and played the sweet music from the Swan Lake. Natalie watched her every step and corrected her if she made any mistakes.

Samuel was delighted when he saw her exiting the theatre. The way she walked was like she was still dancing and his immortal heart skipped a beat. He was tempted to approach her but the moment he laid eyes on her friend he froze. He felt her being different the moment he laid eyes on her, magically mesmerized by her dance and her beauty. Now he was sure that she was anything buy ordinary and he knew he had to be more cautious if he really wanted to make her his.
A human who walks with spirits, rare but not uncommon. A human so close and interlocked witn a spirit was a very different matter...he could see the aura embracing the both of them. Spirits don't have an aura if they are.not connected to a human, which would mostly be temporary. This was a different story though and he would have to consider his every move.

So instead of walking he decided to use the glamour of the night. He unleashed his huge wings, silvery white with black tipped ends, the only way one would know he was a fallen, unfolding them wide before letting hmself melt into the shadows gliding noisless through the night following the unusual pair.

Once they arrived he setteled on the opposite roof to observe. He could hear her exiited melodic voice and laughter and it warmed up his usual so cold heart.
Samuel was confused by how drawn he was to this human, he never felt anything like that before.
He wanted her. He wanted her badly but for once he didn't just want to take.
This one was well too precious.

Once they were inside he glided down and folded his wings. The streets were empty except.for one or two homeless lowlives who stared at him in shock.
He sneered and told their minds they had to better get lost. Samuel didn't want any of them near her.
After that he just sat down on her doorstep, closed his eyes and listened.
They were somewhere in a basement and he could hear music and soft little thuds, the only indication that she touched the floor even when she seemed to float.

Elaine's dance went on and on. She lost track of time. She felt tired a bit, but she knew if she would stop she would fall down and stop for tonight. She didn't want that. The excitement in her was big enough and the adrenalin didn't want to let go of her. Her sister watched her make the same routine over and over again.

Natalie was happy to see Elaine practicing again. But if she is not careful enough she will fall someday and break something. Which would be sad. Her mood shifted quickly as she felt something out of the ordinary outside their house. She wasn't sure what it was, but it was different, not human. "Elaine, I'll be back shortly. Have to check something." She didn't use the regular disappearing, but she walked up to the room instead.

Elaine stopped dancing and watched her sister go. Natalie never did this before, so it had to be serious somehow. She was worried what could she possibly check on so she went silently after her. She tried to stay out of her focus, but even though she wanted to, she couldn't ever escape from her sister. They were connected after all.

Natalie felt Elaine climbing up to the room, but she ignored it. There was something wrong going on and she intended to fix it. However she could. When she passed the front door, the usual ghost way of passing she saw a man sitting on the doorstep. "Who are you and what is your purpose here?" Natalie tried to look serious. She knew that the man can see her because he was shocked by her presence.

He opened his eyes big when hr saw the spirit in front of me. I was so concentrated on listening that he hasn't felt her approaching. He was slacking...he should be more aware but he was too involved. He relaxed and knowing this spirit was her friend he didn't want to be rude or anything.
Samuel greetes her friendly with a smile "good evening my dear. Purpose? Do I need to have a purpose to sit here and enjoy the quiet night?!" He could feel she was suspicious and protective.
"My name is Samuel and you dear spirit?" He was eager to find a way to get close to the girl. Now that he tought of it he was so distracted by her dancing that he never even thought of checking the programm for her name.
His immortal heart was beating harder with every picture he let flash through his mind remembering her every move.
He was aroused in every thinkable way but his selfcontrol took over so he wouldn't mess this up.

"It is quite unusual for a non human creature to sit on a human porch in the middle of the night, unless you have some important business with the human. And I am not aware of any businesses that she has other than with spirits. Name is Natalie." She stood there proudly in front of the unfamiliar creature. She didn't know what to expect of him, but his smile couldn't fool her, she knew he was dangerous.

Elaine hid behind the living rooms door frame and listened to Natalie speaking with a guy. Even though the doors were closed she could still hear their voices. She was a bit afraid because she didn't know what was going on. Her breath quickened as she stood there, terrified.

his smile grew into a grin "good evening Natalie, what is it that makes you think I want business. This is a free world and i think I have all rights to sit where I please." He slowly rose to her level.
"But I can see why you are so protective. I would do the same I guess. We don't share the best of reputations"
Samuel could feel the girls present close by and decided to leave it for now. He didn't want to disconcert them if he ever wanted a chance to get close to this human in a mannered way.
He walked away a few steps before he turned to Natalie.
"Anyway I bid you goodnight and itwas a pleasure meeting you. Please send my regards to your wonderful friend. She was amazing...you taught her well." He grinned before melting into.the shadows.
***
When he arrived at the house he let himself fall onto the sofa. He prefered to live alone without other Fallen ones..they irritated him too much so he decided to rather melt into the human world with houses.
He still had to fullfill his duties as the head of this area. It was an.easy enough job and he enjoyed a good fight once in a while. It were mostly the young ones that got into trouble by getting involved with humans,...ending up with nephilim problems.
His mind kept going back to the girl...the dance....he still didn't know her name..but it wouldn't take much to find out ...for now he would wait....he closed his eyes and fell asleep...which happened only once in a while.
He dreamed about her and he knew it....that he held her tight.against his aroused body kissing her deeply...exploring every part of her body , her soft skin and perfect breast and sweetest part. The dream was so vivid...for this night he would satisfy his need with that dream.
Later he would find her to make her his for real.

Natalie moved back into the house and saw Elaine standing near the living room door. Her serious face turned into a big smile as she saw her sister. Natalie ran to her, short distance but she still felt like running, and hugged her. "I don't know what it was, but everything will be fine." She let go of the hug and saw worry on her friends face. "What is it?"

Elaine was surprised that Natalie hugged her. And those words, something must be wrong. She put those thoughts aside and smiled at her friend. "Nothing, never mind. Lets go to bed. I'm tired now." And with those words she moved up to the floor and into her bedroom. Natalie followed her, even though she didn't sleep, she liked to stay close to her. The room was not typical for a girl. No pink details, purple or any other color. Just wood. Dark wooden bed, dark wooden chair and table. Just the walls were white, and the curtains and sheets of course. Another interesting detail was that this room was in attic, so there was even more wood. Eline lay down on the poofy white bed, still in her training clothes. She was too exhausted to change into her night gown. The instant her body relaxed and melted with the bed, Elaine fell asleep. With a little guardian angel near her. Natalie.

Samuel was still in slumber when he heard the hard knocks against his door.
"urgh....what the.." He stretched and got up with a groan. The knocking got louder so he made his way to open the door. He was annoyed ...extremely annoyed, getting ripped out of a dream he didn't want to end. He opened the door and caught the fist that was about to hit it again.
"I swear...you better have a good reason to wake me up because if not this is the last of your immortal days"
It was his watchman and right hand Chase and he looked at him with shocked.
"you actually slept? like sleep...you know, closed eyes and all?.."
Samuel took him by his neck and glared at him " WHAT IS IT?!"
As it turned out it was a new bunch of Fallen Ones in the city and they were behaving anything but appropriate so it was time to step in. Samuel did what he had to, setting them straight...which ended in a bloody mess, the way it mostly ended. The intruders couldn't get away fast enough.
After the job was done he went home again and showered, then dressed up in a black low worn jeans and a loose thin shirt, he gelled his hair and even bothered to use some EDT for a change.
He walked towards the girls' house and sat down on a near by bench with a cup of coffee and a book he pretended to read. He didn't really want to stalk her but he couldn't really stay away, the allure was too strong.
He watched and played with the thought to just knock and ask her out, the only thing holding her back...Natalie. She was cautious and distrusted him, that was very obvious last night.
His anticipation grew by the minutes...he was madly driven to get to her...every cell in his body screaming for her. He knew how easy he could just take what he desired but in this case he had to be patient.

Morning was beautiful as always and Elaine had no trouble getting up. She saw Natalie crouched beside her and smiled softly. Elaine didn't want to bother her because that may have been her third sleep in like gazillion years, or how many years she has been a spirit. She put on her pink shorties and a black top and raced downstairs to make some breakfast. The usual eggs and bacon. Maybe not so healthy for a dancer, but she liked to get a good meal before she begins her daily training. Elaine was lucky because she was on summer breaks and only few weeks away from college. The local one at least. She didn't have the money to go some place else, and with her mental record, no one would take her. When breakfast was finally done she enjoyed every part of it. Like she didn't eat before. She enjoyed food very much. Once Elaine was filled with protein and other chemical substances an egg contains, she put on her jogging sneakers, tied her hair back and went outside on the porch. She inhaled the chilly morning air and watched the sun come out slowly. Couple of minutes for the stretching and she would take off to the familiar road. She waved at the man who was sitting on a bench across the street and smiled. She never noticed him before so she thought it was a new neighbor. After the stretching was done, Elaine started to jog.

After what felt like forever Samuel saw the door opening and the girl stepping out. And she was alone, no sight of Natalie. He watched her stretch her beautiful body. Then she actually noticed him and waved at him with a smile that almost took his breath away. He smiled back and nodded to her.
He could scold himself for not dressing up in spots wear, of course a dancer would have to keep in shape. Being an angel, he only would excercise to kill time or show off. He was mascular and well shaped by nature so he wouldn't have to bother keeping in shape.
He would wait for her, ask her for her name at least and invite her for a coffee.
When she finally rounded the corner he got up and called her
"Excuse me, Miss! Do you have a second?"

Elaine heard a voice behind her but she didn't understand the words. She turned slowly and saw the same man that was sitting on the bench. She smiled softly as she waited for him to come closer. Her breathing was heavy, even though she just started to run, but she liked to run slower with more pain because she worked on the elastic strength more than the explosive one. "Hello again! Are you new in the neighborhood?" she smiled at this unfamiliar man.

Natalie dreamed for the first time since she died. The dream was disturbing a bit because it said the friendship would end quickly. She didn't know what it meant, but the voice that said it was clear as she would heard Elaine saying it. She couldn't wake up from this dream. All that she heard was that voice repeating the same sentence over and over, but she couldn't see a thing. Or maybe she didn't want to see?
