Fallout

~VENIN~
*she sits silently in her room staring at the words splashed across the screen...maybe her following Black to Fiji wasn't such a smart idea...that's not going to look good on her record...and it would throw her progress back by several weeks if not months...and she couldn't think of an easy way to correct it.....well, not unless she worked herself into more trouble....a sly smile crosses her face as she once more reads the screen....what if she broke rules in her pursuit of runners...reinforced the idea of her obsession over Eclipse...that might work, specially if she could prove she remained GUARD loyal even when she broke rules..* that would work * she saves the file and programs the computer to send it out in a few hours then shuts down, and pulls out a spiral notebook and starts writing in it....if one were to look close they would only see a garbled mess in a bizarre script...this was her security, her own code… everything encrypted and written down in hard copy for her eyes only...so that if anything ever happened then maybe this time she could figure it out....its harder to erase hard copy that noone knows about...when she's finished she puts the book away, grabs her jacket and gun and heads down to the lower level garage...she had aquisitioned for herself a bike, several weeks ago in the hopes that she would get out in the field, but so far that hadn't happened...now she would see that it would happen.....a scowl rests heavily on her face as she storms by the guard on duty, he doesn't even want to risk stopping her, just as she wanted.....she climbs on the bike and guns it towards the gates...pulling a remote from her pocket just before collision and they open for her....she squeals out of the lot stopping just before the compound gate, a modified keycard easily opens that and she's free...* free to hunt *..and she knew just where to find them, she turns the direction of the lair...she stops several blocks away, and pulls her bike into an alley*....mmm, maybe i'll look for Alan first..

~FALLOUT~
*the portal slides open silently- and then the fiery haired syntant is finding himself living up to his name in a completely unexpected way. he steps through the portal- only to find himself falling for the ground* W- *then sees what he`s heading towards. something female, humanlooking. PERFECT landing field! the only warning sound is the wind blowing over his clothes and through his hair as he falls for her- just adjust his position a bit and he should impact without hurting either of them too much.....*

*she puts down the stand and turns to head out the alley, when she catches a sound...she barely has time to even stop before a mass is upon her...instinctively she tries to push it up and away from herself while she rolls in the other direction, venom tipped claws coming out ready to slash what ever it was, something the old Venin wouldn't of dreamed of using*

*he catches her arm as she rolls- using her momentum to let him gain his feet as he tries to get his breath back. there`s no way he`s human- a passing glance should show that- unnaturally colored skin, pointed ears, fire-toned hair....* hey hey hey- eeeeeasy there, babe! don`t play too rough or the boys wonn`t wanna play with you! *his own ever-present claws scraping the wall*

*with a growl she pulls her arm from his grasp* the smart ones don't wanna play with me *she looks him over carefully assessing everything she can. reach, weapons, build...and at the same time shes contacting base for a file...because she doesn't remember this one..she glances upward briefly noting a fire escape and assuming he jumped from there* hoping for an easy catch were ya? *she moves to block the only visible exit from the alley*

*rather undertandably- there`s no file on this one.* oooh- down girl. mreow. like `em fierce, but lets get to know each other first eh? *he stands, hands on his hips, claws digging into the fabric of his clothes* easy catch? *he looks up at the fire escape* hm- would ya rather have a balcony dinner? certainly alot more romantic than standing in an alley. *grins at her playfully*

*her own claws retract, but she remains in position, ready for almost anything....a vague similarity plays in the back of her mind which she tries to place as she continues to assess him....slowly an almost feral smile creeps to her lips* sure, lets get to know each other...you first

hm....well I`m what you humans would call a Leo, very friendly, fond of the girls, and happen to be damned good lookin`. *he leans against the wall, grinning* oh yeah- and you can call me Fallout. so cutie....you got a name or do I get to make one up for ya? *looking her over, eyes gleaming. he seems unarmed beyond a gun on his hip- an old fashioned looking gun at that. but appearances can be oh so beautifully decieving*

Venin *.."you humans"...thats sets off the bells..she looks closer at him, picking up minor points she had noticed before and dismissed* a syntant? *she herself doesn't appear to be armed, however scent may pick up the oil on the sig hidden at her back*

ooooooh an educated one! *though now she has more than just his....er.....romantic interest.* now now- didn`t think I`d run into someone right off.....*he catches the oil scent- and hides a grin. oil around somone who can use a form of fire. oh yes- NICE.* heh- I like the smart ladies....*wicked little smile settling onto his lips*

a different syntant for sure ...*she relaxes only slightly..this wasn't one of her prey...a decent catch, but not prey, not yet....* .Ryan send you? *if she could avoid it she wouldn't even use this one as a catch, she didnt need GUARD getting their hands on a syntant, they might decide they want the others..she remembers vaguely something that Ryan had previously said* what model are you?

Ryan? THAT egomaniac? not EVEN. I`m here on my own honey. *then he blinks at her questions, leaning against the wall with a little huff* if I tell you that, you gotta tell me some things in return sweets. *winks at her, grinning* sound like a deal? mmmmmmmmm? *an evil little glint in his eyes* that is some pretty personal stuff.

*a short chuckle leaves her lips as you voice your opinion on Ryan* why you here then? *she smiles at his deal* okay, I'll tell you some things

hey, even syntants get cabin fever y`know! and our world is a bit on the dead side- why not go lookin` for new ground? *then he grins* I`ll tell you my model- even my class and ranking- if YOU tell me your phone number and when you`ve got a free night. *winking. so what if this is a rescue mission? he can have some fun first!*

just a little dead over there...*She smiles almost sensually, or as sensually as a killer can* thought the deal was that you tell first....I'll gladly give you a number...*she relaxes, though one would notice that she still blocks the exit and any that know her would realize how quick she can move into action*..if you tell first.

*he grins- knowing his model won`t help her too much- beyond figuring out a radation suit might be a good idea for prolonged exposure* I`m a third rank Beta Model, Radiant Class. *or radium if you wanted to be proper- but they far preferred "Radiant". she`s dealt only with alphas so far...would she realize he was quite different from them?* your turn now honey- and YOUR number please. *pouting slightly* I hate being stood up. *killers can smile quite sensually. female syntants do it all the time*

beta? *she knew that Sai and Zak were alpha, she hadn't been told there were further models...though it did make sense* Whats radiant class? *She can tell just by looks thats he's definatley different, and she would guess that the colouring made some statement towards their abilities...blue=electircal, thus red must be fire?...perhaps...* /My/ number? very well *she spiels off the number for the farm..after all it was her number for all she knew it still was*

oh come on. you`re a bright girl- I bet you can figure it out. *grins at her as she rattles out the number- not bothering to write it down* too easy. now what`s the one I can reach you at? c`mon- would one date really be that hard on ya? *he tilts his head to the side slightly grinning at her slyly.....* yup, and beta. I`ll let you figure out if it really means anything on yer own.

*she chuckles* oh believe me, you call there, I'll know...the message will definatley get through *she still looking him over when she realizes that he has a scent, unlike the alphas that she knew* so are all betas of ... your colouring? *she might as well get what information she can, after all this was definatley no Zak....thought of him brings a brief pang of longing which she ruthlessly shoves aside...that was one part of her previous life she didnt regret, but she didn't want to see him...because then there would be choices she'd be forced to make*

oh no no- just the radiants. *then he pouts at her cutely* why do I think that I could call you till the sun set in the east and you`d never return my calls? *well- she was an odd one...most people he knew would have tried to run from a syntant or attacked- not held a conversation* -you DO know trying to block that entrance is a pretty futile act don`t you?

and just how many variants of the betas are there? *she smiles sweetly* you never know when the world may decide to turn backwards, many claim their world constantly flips on end * a light chuckles leaves her lips as she glances briefly over her shoulder* do I? *her tone holding just an edge of challenge*

*he shrugs* who knows? many as the govermental morons made I s`pose. only certain models are made in certain factories y`know. *then he grins* so`s that mean you`ll have pizza with me on saturday night? maybe go out dancin`? *he knows there`s some places that wouldn`t bat an eyelash at someone like him walking around...there always is. then he grins* yup. if you`ve deal with either Sai or Zakai, you know how fast we are. *and Sai`s a good example of how agile they can get.*

how many do you know of? *she smiles at his grin...this was a bold one...much different than Sai or Zak.....she certainly hopes that Zaks never this blatent..she almost winces at the thought...after all she won't know, or she hopes she never knows.* I am familiar with those names, *she takes half a step to the side* but do you know of me?

hm...that you`re strapped and obviously confident of yourself. *he grins- then abruptly jumps- upward. he swings himself up onto the fire escape, waving down at her* seeeeeeee? I told you it was futile!! and I knew you would be. *he snickers slightly* beyond the very dead zandreer and the two vanished failure females- they`re the only syntants you COULD have met. *then he gives a tsk tsk sound, waggling a finger* now now- telling you how many there are would be telling things I`m not at liberty to say!

*she looks up at him a smile of amusement on her face* did I try to stop you from reaching the fire escape? ..She shakes her head and leans against the wall* that sure of yourself are you? I could have met several...after all, I do know your planet..it is possible I have journeyed there, much as you journey here...*arms cross her chest as she shakes her head* I did not ask for how many there were, only how many /types/ you knew of...there is a difference

*he tsks slightly* it means I can get by you any time I so choose. just blocking the front of the alley won`t do you any good! *then he flat out laughs, darting out onto the building`s ledge and edging towards the street* I know all the places you COULD have gone and not a one has syntants in it beyond Sai. Zakai hasn`t even been "home" since he was born. *he crouches on the ledge and grins at her* still telling. what if all the ones I know ARE all of them? *there are many betas.....a frightening amount in truth. and many flaws of the first series have been fixed....* anyway- I`ll be callin` you sometime soon cutey.....but I really got something I need to be doin`.

perhaps because I let you? *she reaches into her pocket and slowly pulls out a pack of smokes* does it look like I'm trying?*a smoke raises to her lips as she pockets the pack once more and searches for a light* didn't say I knew them, just of them..*she shrugs* maybe they aren't all you know? why would they let you have complete acess to all of them? *she finds her matches and strikes one, the head breaking off in the process* damn cheap matches *she glances up at his disappearing form* hmmm, interesting…*she pushes off the wall, smoke dangling form her lip* Oh well, I have work to do
