Politics

[Lylie]

"Me? I am from a place that no longer exsits. my tribe was wiped out a long time ago. Only a few of us servived and we are not human anymore. But I am from Africa. the region now called Nigeria. Sad that they would call a wonderful place like that area Nigeria. Such a shame. But that was a long time ago. A very long time ago."

It looks like for a moment that the little boy will start to cry. His face screws up as if remembering something painful. But as sudden as it happened he was back smiling again.

[ravenstorme]

Ishgar's show of emotion doesn't ellicit a reaction in Irisi. She continues to study the paintings, and the people around her.

"What is it about me that you find so interesting, little Ishgar?"

[Lylie]

At that moment the room hushed and the lights dimmed. People started to mummer after a moment of the silence wondering if something was actually going to happen or if it was a malfunction in the electricity. A few minutes passed as people were waiting.

Ishgar looked to one of the dark doors by a statue that was at the back of the room. He seemed to be expecting something.

A pair of spot lights shown on the doors. A woman was standing there. She looked so beautiful that at points it seemed to hurt to look at her. She had platinum blond hair, steal blue eyes. She had a slight figure and was 4'8 tall. The woman didn't need the spotlights to draw attention to her. It seemed to collect around her as if she was a magnet for it.

She looked around the room as if surveying what she now had. A few people shivered at the look that she gave the room. It was not a frightening look but a very cold one.

"I am your new prince. Your old one had to leave... suddenly. So I am here to replace the old one. There are going to some changes in the way that things are run. I am currently working on those changes. Until the changes are completed, any question as to what has changed so far, just ask my partner... Kiki. You met her at the door. She check in your weapons. You can get those at the end of the party," as she spoke a chill ran through the air. she spoke with an accent that was heavily old French.

"So then let the party continue." She smiled and the room suddenly felt warmer than what it had been just a few moments before. She walked into the crowed to join the festivities.

Lucine smiles and keeps her eyes on the new prince. She waits till she gets a clear veiw of the prince Let's see what secrets our aura keeps

Kiki, is it? He mused. Halo crossed his arms and stood back tall. He wanted to know more about this woman now, but also had learned the patience and cool levelheadedness for which he was reknown in the Third Ward. He glanced around trying to locate the mysterious Kiki, but found only a massive wall of dead.

When the woman's voice quivered with the very nasal French accent, Halo first raised an eyebrow, and then cringed. The last thing he would need was to be working for some air head aristocrat who thought they thought they knew how the city might like to maybe be ran. His eyes rolled in their sockets. This seemed to be an ill-fated regime change...

[ravenstorme]

The expression on Irisi's face did not change throughout the new prince's entrance and speech. Whatever she felt, she kept well hidden. When the prince walked into the crowd, Irisi returned to studying the paintings, but kept an eye on the new prince and everything she did.

Here we go, yet another prince. They come and go quicker than the seasons. I wonder what plans this one has. Ah well, what does it matter? If she wishes my services, she will find me. Until then, I will continue with my unlife.

Irisi turns back to Ishgar. "So you know this new prince?"

[Lylie]

The boy looks up at Irisi. "Why I owe her my life my lady. It is because of her that I am not hunted because of my being a child when I was embraced." he looks back at the painting. "She is a interesting person. But be careful to notice if it is she who you talk to." at that he turn and walked to the prince, disappearing into the crowd.

[eunhathes]

After scanning the crowd for a few moments, Halo noticed the woman named Kiki. She was not hiding, nor being obvious. He decided that since there were no dire proclamations being handed down, he would go speak to her. Jabbing his hands into his pockets, he slinked over to her.

"I understand your name is Kiki?" He waited for her reply. "So then, what of this new Prince? How does she reign?" His questions were blunt, but Halo was known for being anything but blunt.

[celest]

Lucine is momentarily taken back by the swirling colors of the aura. She becomes intraced by them as her clans flaw takes her. She takes a step forward before shaking her head. Now is not the time for this she reminds her self, still desiring inside to touch the bright colors. All right then lets focus now Lucine. Blue mostly, calm, that makes sense I supose. Lets see what else, aggrissive, angry, bitter, and Black? Hmmm, hateful not diabolry. Not exactly what I expected. What else... She watches the patterns and textures reading deep into the aura before pulling away so she won't become entraced again. Well, she personally didn't kill the old prince but she had no connections to the old prince either. Strange for some one to recieve the city from out of no where. Well, atleast under the circumstances she wants us to believe. She looks away, she was also curious why she was invited but other questions had been more imporant to her.

She looks over to where Halo had been and then scans the room for him. Talking to Kiki? My my my, we are connected. I was hoping to finish that discusion but it will have to wait. It would be a good idea to find myself leaving with him tonight but I should probaly hold back for now. She makes her way into the crowd, casually mingeling.

[Lylie]

Kiki looks at Halo as if assising him. "Yes im Kiki. The prince is fair. she will let you know how she reigns. You are who may I ask?" Her accent was heavy with the middle east. She looked him up and down.

[eunhathes]

Halo heard the roll of the mediterranean in Kiki's voice. "Me? I'm called Halo. If I remember right, you were intrigued by my firearm at the door. A .45 Magnum?" He gazed at her, toe to crown, from behind his sunglasses. Not much escaped his perception, but he wasn't looking for something specific, just sizing up the artwork.


=========
OOC: An appearance rating, please? I will percept if I needs to...

[Lylie]

Kiki you notice is a striking woman, that looks to be of Asian decent. She maybe from far western china, the part that boarders India, from her accent. She clears her throat and asks "What? Do you have a problem with how I look or are you just amazed that a woman is in charge of security?"

You also notice that she is not nearly as perfect as the new prince is in appearance.

((occ: an appearance of 3))

[celest]

Lucine walks slowly around the room she smile becoming steadliy more fake. For a Toreador prince this party is certainly dull. She decides to go back over to the art work. Hmmmm, that is interesting she thinks to herself as her eyes come acroos the Egyptian woman, Irisi. That jewerly certianly does look authentic. Well maybe there is something worthwhile here. She walks up to the woman smiling. "It is not everyday you see one wearing art, especially art such as that."

EDIT: For accuracy. -eun

[eunhathes]

"Neither, actually. I try not to underestimate a foe." He leaned in closer. "Truth to tell, I find that all females have beauty instilled withing them naturally." He stood up. "You are no different, Kiki."

[Lylie]

Kiki raised an eyebrow. "I did not say I was not beautiful. I asked if you had a problem with how I look. As in me being Asian. and that does not answer as to why you were stairing at me. Any ways if you have any questions you better ask now. The party is nearly over. The sun is soon to rise." The whole time that she is talking to Halo she is not looking at him but scaning the room.

[ravenstorme]

Irisi looks over Lucine with an unfeeling, cold look. She touches her jewelry, almost caresses it lovingly. The unfeeling look on her face is replaced by one of longing and remembrance.

"Beautiful aren't they? My jewelry is very old, some might even say ancient. And yes, if you are wondering, they are authentic. And you are...?"

[eunhathes]

Halo sighed. "Well, then I guess I don't have a problem. And I do not find it odd, either, that you are a woman in a position of power. You must seem to think I'm one of those stuffy corpses from before the age of electronics." He leaned in. "Embraced nineteen hundred ninety-eight." He glanced back and forth quickly. "So, this is the end of the party, eh? No glorious decrees? No final adjudications? Ok, I've got one question." He pulled his sunglasses down, wincing with the increase of the light entering his retinas. "How do I get to speak with the Prince?"

[celest]

Lucine takes a step closer and bends slightly to take a closer look at the artifacts. "Yes they are authentic aren't they? My, my, my. They just don't make things like they used too." She stands straight and smiles. "I'm called Lucine." She extends her had in greeting.

[Lylie]

Kiki looks at Halo and says "Put your glasses back on you fool. There is no reason for you to hurt yourself like that. And to talk to the prince? Now that is a interesting question. How do you get to talk to the prince?" Kiki taps her chin with one finger and crosses her other arm across her chest. "Well I guess that you would have to make an appointment with her. And if your wondering how to make an appointment with her, you have to do it with the lead of her security team. And then you have to make sure that the appointment is with her."

She looks at Halo. Smiles and shows a brief glimsp of her fangs. Its the first time that night that she has smiled. The smile was gone almost as soon as it appeared. She went back to scaning the room and asked "So then, is there anything else?"

[eunhathes]

(Party)

His sunglasses replace themselves, almost as if by reflex. "So what you're saying is that I need to make to appointments? One with the Head of Security. Then the Head of Security will make an appointment for me to see the Prince?" Halo loathed beauracracy. "Why do I feel this is a big runaround? Ok. So who is Head of Security? You?" He studied her brief grin. "Ok, I'll bite. Think you could pencil me in sometime in the next hundred years?"

Halo was growing quite impatient with this regime already.
