There was a small sigh that escaped her at the rude answer she received. Darn. I was hoping for something just a tad more interesting than that. He was strange; why did he want to hang around Shadows? Must be really twisted or something. her innerself thought. Well to each their own. the other side shrugged. Her fun was leaving when he turned around and asked her: "Why do you care, anyway?" Now it was her turn to be uncomfortable. Nisa glanced away and tugged and crossed her arms before replying. "Mostly curiousity I suppose. Why hang around such lowlifes as us?" She remembered when her 'loved ones' found out she had turned into a Shadow. They dropped her at the hospital like a hot potato. She'd done pretty well for herself since then though. If only they could see her now. a sadistic undertone in the thought. |

Because I'm attracted by the darkness, was the answer that first came into Spectre's mind, but he wasn't sure what she would make of it, and she would probably take it the wrong way anyway. No, the answer that he gave out loud was, "That depends on your definition of lowlife." Memories swam unbidden toward the front of his mind, memories that he would prefer not to have. |

"What do you mean? Lowlifes are lowlifes. We're hated by everybody else and we hate them," was the way she saw it. It seemed that she had forgotten that simply several months ago, Nisa herself was a human. And the way she said it sounded slightly halfhearted. Like she didn't exactly believe the line between the two was that defined. She could have looked inside his mind again, to see what he meant, but like the guy said, it was rude. Well... since when did I care? she thought. Nisa simply justified it as disinterest for now. |

"I suppose that's true," Spectre said. "But there's more to it than that." He found himself remembering his past life before coming here and the things that he had done. The monster he had been. And oddly, he wasn't a bit sorry for them. He felt that it was all necessary to survival. Except... No. He wouldn't go there. None of it mattered, of course. All of that was behind him, though he still didn't feel like he had started over. |

She agreed inwardly, but didn't consent outloud. Instead, she just muttered, "Uh-huh. And how would you know about that?" Nisa said, slightly contemptuous. "You've ever been a wanted criminal like us?" she was now talking with some amusement. He didn't look the bad guy type, but then again, neither did she. "Actually forget about it. I can't say that about you without knowing you. And hell, I don't even know your name." At this she chuckled. Nisa looked up at the midnight sky. It still seems early. Well, early for her. She didn't want to move from her spot out of laziness. "You do have a name right?" she asked. It sounded stupid the way it came out, yet she didn't want to look more idiotic by stammering or rephrasing what she said. |

He couldn't help smirking. "No," he said. "I've never been a wanted criminal." And it was true. But it was possible to do terrible things with the law backing you up. Except, he really didn't think that any of it was so terrible. The people on the receiving end might not agree, though... "And my name's Spectre," he added as an afterthought. "Do you have a name?" As long as he's using his real appearance he might as well use his real name. If anything goes wrong, he could always use a different name the next time he came to Zouken. |

That was... really easy. She had no expectations for what his answer would be, but it was weird that he gave him her name so easily after being difficult with everything else. It was nice to get a straight answer out of Spectre. Spectre. The name sounded a bit... sinister. Well, maybe not sinister, but... dark maybe? "I'm Nisa..." The polite thing to say after would have been 'nice to meet you,' but she didn't want to lie behind that mask of manners. Now that that was over with, what now? "So. That it?" she asked in a final sort of way. "Kinda boring now, don't cha think?" As if on signal, several loud voices broke the air. They sounded like they were drunk, and when the owners of the voices came to view of the two, they were. They belonged to three men, burly ones, who probably drank a bit too much. One of them was in a fit, and kicked a trashcan towards Spectre and Nisa, apparently not noticing them. [*coughcough* Well, the thugs just keep on coming. xP] |

Spectre sighed. The only good thing about this was, those men's minds were too muddled by the drink to even notice that he existed, let alone figure out that he's not a Shadow. He stopped the trash can with his foot and absentmindedly kicked it back-hard. Bad idea, he realized just after he did it. The trash can flew up and hit one of them in the back of the head. This might be a very good time to run. Nah, he was probably overreacting. |

That wasn't good. The trashcan connected with one of the guys, knocking them back. She had to admit though, it was funny. Nisa silenced her laugh so as not to provoke the men anymore than they were now. Why was she stifling her laughter? These guys' timing was perfect; she'd been needing something to take her frustrations out, whatever they were. "What the hell-? Who kicked that?!" the knocked over man demanded. The two others were laughing at him, and he yelled at them, "Shut up you two!" You should listen to him, Nisa thought. Insults and getting a rise out of others weren't her strong suit; action was her specialty. Though maybe it was Spectre's, seeing as he had quite the smart mouth and all. Turning from them, she looked at the male beside her. "Wanna have some fun?" and glanced over at the three. |

Spectre smirked. It seemed that Nisa had more in common with him than he had originally thought. "Read their minds," he told her. "Find out whatever you can...fears, embarassing secrets, that kind of thing." An idea was forming in his diabolical mind, but he needed to get some dirt on them in order for it to work properly. |

Fears? Embarassments? That's new. Nonetheless, Nisa grinned back at the prospect of messing with these guys. She followed his directions, her questions sent to the back of her mind to bring up later. To her disappointment, they were only Class Two Shadows, which was why she was able to read their minds. Let's see.... As the three bickered on, they didn't appear to notice her sneak into their heads. Her eyebrows knitted together, annoyed. These were proud men; and finding their weakness proved a bit more difficult than anticipated. Somehow, Nisa managed to find a fear or shame for each male. The man who was knocked over had the obvious fear of death from the Goddess of Shadows. One had a broken heart, a cheating girlfriend; did some killing in his grief too. And the last, the Shadow himself was quite young, probably not even past his twenties, and his shallow embarassment was living the life he had before. Poor guy. she thought, somewhat sympathizing. From the little information Nisa gathered, he was a social outcast. She relayed the information to Spectre quieting, informing him of each male's weakness. |

Hmm... He didn't know if he could use any of those, with the possible exception of the Goddess of Shadows. But if that was the best Nisa could do... The air around Spectre seemed to shimmer and twist. Colors swirled together, blending and molding into shape. Finally, where Spectre once stood was the Goddess of Shadows. No, it wasn't really Hoshiko who stood there, but a very good likeness. But the three men were too drunk to know the difference. |

The drunk men weren't the only ones fooled. For a minute, Spectre's immitation had Nisa fooled as well. Given some time to think, she saw through his illusion. Who was this guy? How could he turn into the Goddess of Shadows? The three men fell for the trick, and were stunned stiff. She peeked to see what they would be thinking. Nothing interesting. Their thoughts were incoherant and boring. Nisa sighed, and said to her- what should she call Spectre? Her partner-in-crime? Well, right now, she was more like the partner. Anyways, she said to him, "You've already wowed them with your appearance; say something." |

"You," Spectre pointed to the man whom he'd accidentally hit with the trash can. "You have displeased me," he said haughtily, in the way that he thought that the Goddess of Shadows might sound. "I am very irritated with you. He tried to look menacing and angry. It wasn't that hard. "In fact," he added. "I don't know why I bother keeping you alive." He strode closer to the three men, looming ominously over them. |

The trio began pleading at once, all at the same time. How pathetic. she thought. The edge of her lips turned up, trying hard to resist smiling at the men. This new sadistic side of her was sort of creeping her out a bit. Nisa wasn't too surprised at how well Spectre could act as Hoshiko, seeing as he was probably just as disturbing. Let's see how this plays out... she wondered. "P-please, Goddess, what did we do?" one cowered. "We promise, whatever we did, we won't do it again!" another injected. |
