[Sadie Bennet]

Flicking the switch by the door, the bar was cast into darkness. Something about that place with all its novelties on the wall seemed creepier when the lights were off. Perhaps it was the fact that the clock said it was two in the morning that gave it that spine crawling feeling just a bit more. Though neither the hour nor the environment were the real causes for the chills that ran through the girl currently trying to lock up the bar until 11 am the next morning.

For the last few days she had felt on edge. There was no real explanation for it. Sadie kept attributing it to the fact that graduation would be coming up soon. A little over six months ago she thought she'd receive her diploma in the mail while all her friends sent her pictures of the ceremony.

Now she had few friends left and wasn't going to get her diploma at all.

Slipping the ear buds of her small mp3 player into her ears, she wasn't really concerned about anything happening in her walk back to her apartment. It was only ten blocks away. There really was no point in driving. Besides, she wasn't about to park her car out by a bar where the less than savory college types could do god knows what to it.

Tugging her jacket around her a bit more, she quickly turned to look behind her. That feeling... it wasn't of just being followed... more like anger?... Shaking her head she determined she was being paranoid. Turning to continue her walk she bumped right into something. Well really more like someone.

[Ruby]

Ruby had been sent to find another girl. She hated it when the kids she had to find were girls, they were so much harder to deal with. Guys were easier to charm and convince to talk to her, girls were bitches. They always tended to ask a ton of questions and never really trusted her. Girls created a whole lot of extra hoops to jump through in order to complete what she'd come for. This new girl was proving to be quite interesting though.

She'd gone to Palo Alto, California to find this new child. She was the right age and the right temperment, but watching someone from afar was very different than meeting them up close. Still, Ruby had a feeling that she might like this one. She seemed to own a bar or be high ranked enough on the employees list to get to close up. Any girl that could deal with bar thugs or drunken fights was a girl that she might be able to get along with.

She watched as the young woman closed and locked the doors to the silent bar after shutting down the lights. She was watching from across the street and decided that it was time to make her presence known. Ruby crossed the street behind the girl and then showed up in front just as the girl ran right into her. She knew she'd probably scare her, but it wasn't like Ruby cared at all...she loved messing with people. "Watch it there sweetheart, don't want to damage the goods..." she said, brushing her hands over her tight jeans and dark black leather jacked.

{{Hope you don't mind I gobbled this up!}}

[Sadie Bennet]

Really, she could have sworn she had seen someone from the corner of her eye following her, however she was a bit distracted by the person that was now impeding her walk. Taking out one of the head phones, Sadie studied just exactly who she had bumped into. From the way she hit the person it felt more like a brick wall than the blonde little thing standing in front of her. She had at least a good three inches height on the girl. Striking it up to being exhaustingly tired, she gave a shake of her head with a simple roll of her eyes. Sweetheart? Maybe she should inform her that wasn’t the team she played for.

“Sorry for walking on the perfectly clear side walk,” she sarcastically quipped, motioning that the space to her left was vacant of everything but air.

The Smiths blared from the head phone she held in her hand as she pulled herself up to her full height. Sadie wasn’t going to be intimidated by some California princess in a leather jacket. Though, she had to admit, she did like the girls boots. Call it a weakness of hers. Arms crossed over her chest, she gave the girl a raised eyebrow that clearly said, “…and?”

“Now are you going to stand and block the sidewalk all night?”

Cocking a hip to the side, she wasn’t too worried about what this little waif was going to do to her. A six foot biker, her reaction would be a little different. But she was positive Blondie didn’t want to break a nail. Toying with the necklace she constantly wore, Sadie was all out of patience for the week. A certain guy had used up her stock.

((If you want to know about the St. Benedict’s necklace Sadie wears let me know and I’ll shoot you a PM. Pretty much it protects her from spells/magic and possession))
