21st April 2009 Sam was still buzzing from the last fix she had. That old warlock was a great find, and she was able to drain him faster, then he could say Harry Potter Is Boy Wonder. Sam had to sit it out in the alley behind the old guy's house. Her head didn't know what it should be thinking, so she waited for it all to settle. After a few moments, her head began to settle, and return as normal as it could. Sam then decided to get up, and begin to walk back to her place. Along the way, Sam noticed people passing her by, looking at her weirdly. She knew that her hair was black, not red at the moment. Also her eyes were black, not green, due to the almighty power she took off that guy. She knew she only tracked down this guy for two reasons: for a fix of dark magic, and also to forget her last lover. Tarina had died at the hands of a human, and Sam had turned once again to the magic wich Tarina had not wanted her to go back to. So now Sam tried to get her fix whenever she could, and wreck havoc on any humans she could. This was her torment, and Sam would not rest until she found the person who killed her love, and also if she could help herlself be normal and meet someone who she could love forever.

Jared was once again feeling lonely and annoyed with the world. The woman he thought he might have a sweet relationship with turned out to be a child killer, phasing that baby out of the President's daughter, what had she been thinking of? The woman was crazy insane. Luckily since she left after phasing her hand into him and cracking two of his ribs he had been able to heal himself by smearing some of the President's daughter's blood into his wound, seeing as she had the ability to self heal.
Again, luckily he hadn't seen that child killing bitch since, because if he had, he might just have been tempted to teach her a thing or two. You don't try to start a relationship with a guy whose been mentally and physically abused as a child if you're quite willing to kill one.
Then there was Harley, sweet Harley, his niece, whom he had hoped to build up a good relationship with, he hadn't seen her again for a while, in fact pretty much since she had found out he had been stupid enough to try and date a woman who could kill a child. He had probably lost the only family he may have been likely to have before it had even begun.
Now he had found himself in California and no real reason why since this was where he had caused the President's daughter to lose her child by kidnapping for ransom money he'd never have kept anyway. He was walking backward and not particularly watching where he was going when he suddenly bumped into somebody. He quickly turned around getting ready to apologise when he saw her.
"Bloody hell love you look like you've gone ten rounds with Rocky, what the hell happened to you?" he said, his English accent very clear. "In fact, you don't look very well, are you alright?" he asked in somewhat a caring voice. Then again Jared wasn't your average nasty villain, he was just a mixed up guy with a rather tortured childhood.

Sam was trying to hide her face from this guy, after he made his comments, but unfortunately he was took quick, or Sam was too slow. She thought that the buzz was starting to go, but maybe her appearance hadn't changed yet. Sam was reminded of the veiny look she probably still had, and her eyes were probably still black from all the power she consumed.
"I'm okay. Nothing to concern yourself with foreigner." Sam pushed passed him, looking everywhere buy the stranger. She didn't want to deal with anyone at the moment, though she had done some damage to the old guy previously. Sam wanted to regain her strength, then go out and torment boring people around town. She had no reason to really do anything nice anymore, and felt that causing havoc was her only purpose now.
Only walking a short distance, Samantha's curiosity got the best of her, and turned to face the stranger. The sight of him caught her attention, making her think why he would want to care about how she was doing. She didn't care, feeling her head begin to go back to normal, and noticed her hair starting to go back to its normal hair colour - red.
Deciding to stay and see what this strangers deal was, she asked. "So what brings you around here. Shouldn't you be safe back in your own country, eatingin scones and drinking tea or something?" Sam knew what she said was a little abrupt, but she didn't care at this point in time. All she cared about was herself, and the heartache she still carries.

"Bloody hell, I only asked love, no need to snap the old head off you know what I mean?" Jared said in a defensive voice when the girl had said she was fine and it was nothing for him to worry about. Foreigner indeed. Just because he wasn't American or what ever she was. "And because I'm a Londoner that makes me a foreigner does it?" he asked with a raised eyebrow, he couldn't help but ask the question, he found it rather funny, because Jared had come across a lot of British people in the States since he'd arrived.
He kept watching her with his eyes roaming her body and his tongue licking his lips, he hadn't meant to make it look like he was sizing up his next meal or anything, even if he was hungry, he was just interested in her snappy attitude and the colour of her, and then he noticed she seemed to be returning to, well to normal.
"Ooh look at that, you've gone all red now, so brown isn't your natural colour, red is such a hip look as well you know" he was teasing her a little, but he couldn't help it, after all when he had bumped into her, she was all black veins through pale skin, dark lips and black eyes. Jared hadn't had much fun recently and he was in what you could call a teasing mood.
He rolled his eyes when she asked about why he was there and shouldn't he be at home eating scones and drinking tea. "Britain's not my home anymore love, hasn't been for a while now, I'm happy here, I like this place, it's got football and dog racing, and all these people running about like punch bags on legs" Jared said with a laugh and a wink. "You see, I don't need to be safe, it's others who need to be safe from me" he added, and then hung his head down, "well sometimes" he continued, after all Jared might like to think he was a bad ass, but he wasn't all that, not all the time anyway.

Samantha saw Jared looking at her, but she didn't really care. When he mentioned that she was changing back to her normal self, she shrugged. "So what. So I am coming back down from the high I was on. Maybe I will have the strength now to really show you what I am capable of." Sam didn't care about showing her true self, physically or her abilities, she just wanted to tell this guy to take a hike. But maybe she did need someone to talk to.
Sam had to smirk at the fact that he called America his home now. "Now why would that be? We have so much violence in this part of world, wouldn't you like to go back to where it is probably more safe for you?" She had to roll her eyes when he mentioned the things he liked about it. When he said about 'people running around like punch bags', Sam had to laugh out loud at that. She had to agree. These days, she really didn't care much about humans. Sam liked to track down the powerful ones, and suck them dry of their magiks. It gave her something to do.
"You know what, I have to agree with you on that last part about us humans. I like to do bad things to them to. Sometimes I like to take things that belong to them, and make them mine. Though have only been doing that for a little while, since...since..." Sam had to stop and turn away. Just thinking about her last lover, and how she was taken from her. This is where it all started - going down the creepy brick road.
She didn't know why she was going to start opening up to a stranger about her recent past - but she had the urge to say it. "I was on the yellow brick road all my life. I have a good live, and had a great lover who loved me for me, but that was all taken away from me a while ago, and now I am following the dark side for a while. It's okay at times, but unfortunately you saw me just after going that way."

Jared put his hands up, "Woah there love, no need to get stroppy with me." He just raised his eyebrow as she went on about showing him what she was really capable of, now that he would like to see. After all, what ever it was, a little icey touch to her skin with his hand ought to sort her out if that's what it took, if he felt it necessary to use his power against her. He wanted to yell, 'want to show me what you got', but decided against it. The dark colour she had before was rather off putting. Never know what she might have done to him. "I'd rather not know what you were capable of, if it's all the same to you."
"To be honest with you love, it's not much safer where I'm from than it is here. Everywhere has it's brutal places, trust me love." Jared explained when she mentioned about being safer back home. The amount of trouble there was in England, London in particular was quite horrific, but everywhere had their bad areas and trouble. It didn't matter where you lived. You heard it on the news all the time.
Jared had to chuckle to himself, it would seem she liked his little line about people being punching bags. He wasn't going to get caught up so quickly this time though, after what happened with that other scary bitch. He didn't want a repeat performance, so he'd be careful with this one. "Glad you agree with me there, love, so like to mess around with people yourself do you?" Jared asked with an approving look. Although, looking at her, Jared was sure she was capable of more evil things than he ever would be.
Ever since what he thought, but decided not to actually say that, if she wanted to tell him she would, and he wasn't about to tick off a woman who looked like she could kill him with just a touch of the hand. He wasn't quite sure what her ability was, but he was pretty sure he didn't want to be on the receiving end of it.
However after a break she went on to explain what he assumed she had trailed off with before. It seemed sad to Jared, and he could actually feel her pain a little, not that he had lost a lover, but he had almost lost Harley over his own stupidity, and of course memories of his childhood came flooding back. Jared was scarred in many ways, and it was probably the main reason for him being the way he is today.
"Sorry to hear about your lover, that has to be cruel, at least I ain't been in that sort of situation." That much was true, sure he had lost Rayne, but he hadn't ended up heartbroken over it. He was glad to get rid of her, anybody who could phase an unborn child out of their mother was sadistic person in Jared's eyes. "So the whole black thing is when you get some sort of power trip or something?" He couldn't help but ask, he was somewhat intrigued by this mysterious woman. After all, so far they hadn't even introduced themselves to each other.

Samantha seemed to like chatting to this guy for some reason. She seemed to be able to tell him about how she was beforehand and how she was now. She didn't have any friends now, due to her going to the dark side, so maybe this guy might be her friend? But did Samantha really need a friend right now. Maybe the power and magiks were her only friend right now.
Sam liked how this guy thought. Maybe they could go into business. "If you like it as much as I do, then maybe we should work together to make misery for everyone. I know I can't always do it alone. Receiving powerful magic like I just did takes it toll for a while. Maybe I could take it, and you can finish them off, if the draining of power doesn't kill them first." The more she thought about it, the more Sam liked that idea. But would this guy go for it.
When the guy said he was sorry to hear about her lover, Sam shugged. "I have my good days, and my bad days. Actually I have more bad days then good days now. I don't deserve good days, what with no one to share them with." Sam thought about the last few days. She hadn't really been outside during the day. But during the nights, she had been lurking and taking powerful magiks. So she supposed that during the day, it was a time of rest, and the night was a time for play.
Looking around, she soon realised that proper introductions were not done. Why would she mention going into business with another person if she had no idea what their name was. She shook her head, "I am so sorry. I have been rude now. I haven't introduced myself to you. My name is Samantha." Sam extended her hand to shake the guys hand.

Jared wasn't quite sure what to make of her little, what could he call it? Business proposal? Yeah he might have said that people were like punching bags, but apart from doing things just to annoy the hell out of people, he wasn't one for physically harming someone unless he had a good reason for it. Or at least, unless it was somebody who had already killed. Like that Rayne for instance who was supposed to be his girlfriend, she killed that unborn baby by phasing it out of that young girl. That had really messed him up, now if he had got his hands on her, he might have done her some serious damage.
"Ah, I don't know love to be honest, if I'm to be totally honest with you, I'm a bit messed up, sometimes I don't know what am saying." He said being as truthful as he could be. Not that he particularly wanted to make an enemy of this girl, but being deliberately evil, Jared wasn't sure he really had it in him. Not like that anyway.
"I can only imagine love, never lost a lover myself, so really wouldn't know how I would react in that situation." Jared was being as honest as he could. When he and Rayne were close, before she did that despicable thing, then yeah, he'd probably have been in pieces over losing her. But not now. Now he just saw her like he did his abusive uncle.
She then introduced herself and Jared gave her a weak smile, and took the extended hand and shook it. "Samantha, lovely name, I'm Jared, pleasure." Although he was beginning to wonder how this was going to go now since he had knocked back her little proposal before.

Samantha put up her hand when he said he didn't know about her proposal. He didn't want to push someone over the edge like she has now. "All good Jared. I kind of would have liked you to be there to help, but I am sure I will find someone soon, or just work on my own. Maybe that might work for a while. You can only trust yourself sometimes, right?"
Sam then looked around, noticing that it was going into early morning. It was still dark, so it might have been maybe one or two o'clock. Knowing this she knew that she would either recharge her batteries by eating, or just crash at home for a few hours. Though the first idea was soon answered when her stomache began to rumble. "I am feeling kind of peckish right now. Did you want to see if any places are open? I don't care what it is, I could eat anything right now."
She wondered if she should just crash, what with all that power she had comsumed from that old man earlier. Only a couple of things made her hungry after. One was practicing magic or fighting to get it, and two was sex. Though of late that area was lacking, but Samantha didn't really mind, though sometimes did crave it. The times she should have been out looking for another lover were the time she went out to hunt down powerful magiks.

Jared really wasn't sure how the girl would have reacted to his not being sure on her proposal, so he was kind of glad when she put her hand up and said it was all good. He felt himself let out a slight sigh of relief. Jared really was just a mixed up individual, who had been getting kicks out of annoying people, but he knew it had to stop. Just because he had a tough child hood didn't give him the right to be a wanker himself.
"I'm glad I haven't upset you too much with saying no." Jared said softly, and then looked at her, chewing on the inside of his cheek, "You're right, sometimes you can only trust number one." He should have known that himself, when that bloody idiot killed that President's grand child. That had only meant to be a bit of fun, and look how it turned out. It was tragic.
Just then Samantha mentioned food, and as she did so, his own stomach let out a growl, he hadn't even knew he was hungry until he had heard her mention food. Was he about to go and eat with someone who was obviously more evil than he was? However, right now, she looked pretty much normal and he was hungry and he did need company.
"Yeah, sure, why not love." Jared said, and began looking out for some places which might be able to serve their hunger. Almost every city or town had at least one 24 hour eating place. Then Jared saw the flickering lights just up ahead of them. He pointed, "How about that place? Looks like it might be open for business." The lights simply said 'City Diner', well for the time of the morning, they were bound to have something which would help settle the moans of a hungry stomach or two.

"You haven't upset me at all. It was just a suggestion. I am sure that someone might like the idea down the track." She was glad that he agreed with her saying that she should just work with herself. Maybe she should stop looking for a sidekick and just do that. Sam might get a bit tired doing all the work herself, but at least she knew that it was getting done right.
When Jared pointed to the flickering lights of the diner up ahead, Sam nodded. "Sure. I am sure the food will be okay. As I said I could eat anything." Again Sam heard her stomache grumble, reminding her that all that energy that was used to obtain more power needed reguvination. Sam didn't wait for any leads from Jared, she started to walk in the direction of the diner.
As soon as she stepped inside the diner, Samantha could sniff out the scent of burgers and chips. She stepped around the tables, and found a booth, which faced the sidewalk. Sam felt like she needed some scenery. You never know what or who you might feast your eyes on as people walk by. When the waitress came over, Sam ordered. "I would like a large ceaser salad, a chocolate sundae, a side of chips and a coke thanks."

Jared nodded his head in agreement, "I'm sure someone might." He was still glad that he hadn't upset Samantha though, to Jared she definitely seemed the type to have on your side, than make an enemy. Even if he didn't want to work with her, he might be able to at least be some sort of friend, never know when you might need someone like Samantha on your side.
Jared nodded his head, when Samantha agreed that the diner would be good, as she had said, she was hungry enough to eat anything. "Alright then, because I'm bloody starving too for some strange reason." Jared said with a bit of a laugh, as he made his way toward the diner, already knowing what he was going to order.
As they made their way into the diner, Jared followed Samantha to the booth and sat opposite her, and soon the waitress came over to take their order. Of course Jared let Samantha order first, and then the waitress looked at him. "I'll have a chicken pizza love, and a side of chips and a coke, and maybe a chocolate fudge cake with cream too please." Jared had just realised why he was so hungry, he had skipped his evening meal because he had been feeling so down in the dumps, having too much time to think about things.

Samantha couldn't believe she had ordered so much, wondering whether she would get through it all. But knowning what she had done previously, she knew she would. Samantha looked out the window, watching only a handful of people walk by. Looking at their clothes, she could tell that some of them had been out clubbing, and the others had been out on dates. Then Sam remembered that she hadn't been on a date in so long. Though she wondered if his guy would be dating material, but thinking that she preferred girls sometimes over guys. Whatever worked for her at the time.
She looked at Jared, knowing that she should break the awkward silence. "So, what do you like to do for fun?" He knew what she liked to do for evil fun, but she had never really told him what she liked to do. "I personally like going to the movies myself. Though I haven't had a chance lately to see anything, though I want to see that new Sandra Bullock one." Sam's eyes skimmed the diner, and spotted a magazine rack. She got up, walked over, and grabbed the newest edition of the newspaper.
Walking back to the table, she flicked to the entertainment section, and spotted a new reviewer, Jonathan Baker, and saw that he actually had reviewed the movie. Sam skimmed the review, and then looked up at Jared. "Are you up for a movie tomorrow? The new reviewer gave it a pretty good wrap."

As they waited for their order to arrive a slight awkward silence had fallen upon them. Jared knew that he would eat every single thing he had ordered because he was so hungry. He was actually just about to break the silence when Samantha got in first. He looked up at her and smiled. Before having a chance to answer her question, she told him she liked going to the movies.
"Funny you should mention about enjoying going to the movies, I quite like going to the movies myself. Sandra Bullock just happens to be one of my favourite actresses as well." Jared said and then laughed a little, showing off his perfect chiselled features and dimpled chin. Jared was in many ways a rather stunning looking man, it was just a pity that he hadn't been in the arms of a good woman for some time. Unless you counted Rayne, but he didn't, the crazy bitch could die as far as he was concerned, killing a child.
However, thinking about that, was getting him angry and he didn't want to show that side of himself, so he shook the thoughts from his head. So when Samantha went and got a newspaper from the rack and then spoke again a few moments later, she was asking if he'd like to go see the movie with her. It had sort of taken him by surprise, but he figured why the hell not.
"Sure love, why not, I ain't got anything else to do with my time." He replied as he smiled and winked at her slightly. Just then their food arrived, and Jared began tucking in to his pizza. The soon as it arrived he realised just how hungry he was. But forgetting his manners, he quickly swallowed what he had bitten and smiled at the waitress, "Cheers love." He'd make sure to give her a tip.

Samantha waited for Jared's response, and was glad he was up for a movie. "Good. Let me see what times are available." Just then the food came. Samantha looked down at her salad, and instantly chose a fork, digging into the food. She thanks the waitress with a nod, and began to eat the first mouthful. It sure was a good salad that this place made. "This food is pretty good. I might have to visit here again if I am in the neigbourhood."
In only a matter of time her salad was gone, and Sam moved onto the chips. Picking up one at a time, she looked at Jared. "So, what were you up to before when we ran into each other, if I may ask?" The first few moments of their meeting was a big hazy, and she hoped that she hadn't asked the question already. When she realised that there was no sauce for her chips, Samantha signalled the waitress, "Hi, could I get some tomato sauce please?" When the waitress came back with a small dish of it, Sam thanked her.
As she ate, and waited for Jared to reply, Sam closed the paper, and started to read it from the beginning. There wasn't much news worthy, but soon knew that there might be something about her little visit to the old guy from before. Though she made sure that she didn't leave any evidence. Well she hoped so.
Thinking about that moment, taking the magiks from him, Sam looked out the window, looking at all the people walking passed. She then sensed a dark force near by, which made her shudder in her skin.
