Tom had just stepped off the last step when he was mauled by a familiar person. The sweet scent of her hair and the sassy voice made him beam. "Jaz!" He grinned, hugging her back. He couldn't believe it. How the hell was Jazmine here? "What are you doing here? This is amazing! How are you?" He wanted to ask so many questions, his eyes wide with excitement. "It's damn good to see you Jaz. Is Rico here?" He looked over her shoulder for any sign of the boy, probably around 12 years of age by now. But his eyes went back to Jaz. She looked the same, but somehow better. He pulled her into another hug, feeling like he might collapse with emotion. "I'm SO happy you're here..." He said softly.

(( Robot Unicorn Attack - Play this awesome game! ^^ Have your volume on!)) Jasmine was quite surprised at how ecstatic Tom behaved at seeing her, but she was pleased as well. She accepted his second embrace and said, "It's so good to see you too. I've thought about you often, you know, wondering if you are alive and all." She smiled. "To answer your question, it was a mission of Chironine's. They managed to clean out a good portion of the threatening howler infestation in our New York area a couple months ago. Doing so tore up a lot of places, including our apartment building. I mean, it was like totally wrecked. Bullet holes across the floor and walls, windows shattered, our furniture broken and scattered around. Jesus, the damn refrigerator was ripped in half! And doors were torn off the hinges, God. And I'm not even exaggerating. Seriously. Since Rico and I had no relatives to lodge with, they took us in. We were victims of circumstance, but it turned out to be a benefit for our scenario." She put her hands on her hips and made a sarcastic frown. "Well, that little brat could be anywhere now. He's probably killing his brain cells in the arcade." After walking over to a bench against the corridor wall, she seated herself and patted the space beside her, saying, "I've got a lot of questions for you too. Where's Kate? I asked V about her and he said that she was missing and you were determined to find her. What happened?" Her face accustomed to the question with an expression of concern.

Tom listened about how the rescue had gone. Damn, V was not kidding about the whole organization being serial killers. Tom sat down next to Jazmine and couldn't stop looking away from her. It just felt so great to see someone he knew. It's almost as if he wasn't really alone right now. He laughed when she mentioned Rico was probably playing video games. But when she asked where Kate was, he frowned, loosing his happiness. "Well... I'm not sure. She ran away I guess. This half year she had been staying with me at my house, but, she one day up and left. I have no clue where she was, and this vampire kept talking to us about some sort of ambush gonna happen at the school this coming Wednesday." He shrugged. "Other than that, I just followed the guy here, and boom... here I am. But... my family is probably once again in a fit. Damn," He ran a hand through his hair, a habit that he took up a while back. "This whole mess is starting again, and I've already lost Kate." He looked bitter and then just smirked at Jazmine. "So, you and Rico had an apartment, huh? How'd you get past that?" OOC: Hey, hey.... you know Light's last name Yagami? What's it spelled backwards? Pffft!!! *snickers and turns red from holding laughter in* I'll probably tell you this before you read it.

Jasmine face fell when she saw the dismayed face that Tom had when she mentioned Kate. Her mouth was slightly agape as he talked about her disappearance. That fucking bitch, she thought to herself managing to keep her bitter reaction to herself. It stunned her that his friend would do something like that without giving any regard to his worries. Sighing, she said, "Well, that's really too bad, Tom. But I'm sure she has a good reason for doing something like that, although I can't imagine one that would excuse leaving your best friend in the dirt like that, Jesus." Jasmine smiled and followed Tom's lead in leaving that subject behind. "Well, it wasn't only ours. We were sharing it with some friends, y'know, splitting the rent and groceries and all." She brushed his bangs out of the way and examined some of the injuries inflicted by V the previous night. "I saw your... ceremony yesterday. You looked like you had a swell time. I talked with some other members about that and they said you had it pretty soft. Seldom do people leave with less than five bones broken." She wiggled her eyebrows. "Lucky you."
Throughout the hour, Kate had been repeatedly washing out her cut and drying it. It hurt like hell now. She spent most of her time in the living room, having the television on but not entirely watching it. In spite of her struggles, her mind would always wander to what she had discovered. Even though there was no use wallowing over it, she couldn't really help thinking about it. She was so caught up in her thoughts that her bones seemed to leap out of her skin when she heard the door of the apartment open. Kate heard Rescue bark and sprint over to the door. "I've got good news," said Alan, strolling into the room. Good news? she thought bitterly. That's been unheard of since forever. "What is it?" she asked, hiding her disdainful feelings. His smile widened and said, "Well, the current temperature in the land of Hades has reached zero degrees Celsius because Chuck is going to do some wedding shopping with Sophie. They need someone to take care of Megan and Cora, and that turns out to be us." Kate nodded and said, "Oh, okay." There was a moment of silence. "You are alright with that, aren't you?" asked Alan. "Oh, yeah, of course." "They are at the park having a picnic right now and we're going to join them. When Sophie and Chuck need to leave, we'll just take the kiddies back here. S-O-U-N-D G double-o D?" What Alan said reminded Kate of her quote 'Semicolon dash right parentheses.' She nodded. "Righteous, let's go."

[[Good. I hope it hurts, bitch... *glares*... GO JAZ!! OW!!! XD]]
Tom just shrugged his shoulders at Jaz's comments about Kate. "Who knows why... she just better be alive." He looked to Jazmine and gave her a soft smile. [[BTW: Jaz= MEGAN FOX... *drools*]] He didn't even blink when she swipped at his bangs. He had forgotten of his injuries, however, and now a nice throbbing pain in his cheekbone and forhead reminded him. "Yeah, I suppose it wasn't too bad. I've had worse, but I'm assuming if I don't follow the rules, I'll be a vegetable soon enough." He let out a small grunt of humor before rising to his feet. "Well, I better go find V and ask him about what I need to do 'sides my training," he then held out his hand, "Wanna come with?"

((TEE HEE)) Jasmine shook her head. "Man, Tommy-boy, if you did become a vegatable... I... I don't think I could handle it. I would take you off life support. It's no way to live." Her eyes gleamed with humor. She took his hand and said, "Awesome. On the account of your 'training', whatcha gonna do 'bout dat? You gonna turn into one of those hot, leather-clothed badass peoples shootin' stuff and other hot, leather-clothed badass peoples?" She did a little, hip-swinging dance. "Ah, fun... you're my own personal Matrix dude."
"Oi Uncle Alan! Did you bring the sandwiches?" asked Megan as a greeting to Alan as soon as they arrived at the park. "Did you bring the sandwiches? You know I have to have your sandwiches." "Answer the question!" called Sophie running up to them. Smiling, he gave Megan a container filled with the sandwiches. "Yes, I brought them," he answered leisurely. She took them and scuttled toward the picnic blanket, screaming, "Uncle Alan brought the sandwiches!" Cora joined in the screaming. As she was bringing a bag to the group, Kate was embraced by Cora. She looked up and said, "How do you do, Chelsea?" Kate had forgotten about her alias name. She replied, "Very good thank you." Chuck's job was to put everything in bowls and set them upon the blanket's area. Once, Sophie and Kate poured everyone's drinks, they all began eating. Sophie, Chuck, and Alan all engaged in talking with each other, but Kate, Cora, and Megan were usually silent. Cora kept complimenting everyone's dishes like it was a job of hers. Alan indicated a bowl with a couple slices of watermelon in it to Kate, asking, "Would you like some watermelon?" She nodded and took it, then placed it beside her other plate. Alan shook his head and said, "Sloppy move. You left yourself wide open." Kate frowned at him, but then he moved his glass over her area, zig-zagging through her glass and her plate as if making a chess move. He took her drink and bowl back, laughing, "Hahaha, come to papa..." Everyone laughed, but Cora frowned and retorted, "Give her back her food! This is meal time, not chess time." Alan stuck his tongue out at her, saying, "You're no fun."

[[*snickers* DUH, Jaz! HE'S FRICKIN' KEANU REEVES: THE ONE: THE NEO!!!!!! OW! I WANT THEM TO HAVE SEX NOOOOOOOOW!!!! XD]]
Tom smiled. "No way to live whatsoever. And I'm doing Karate... for now. I'm just going to do hand-to-hand combat, Jaz. I'm not anything like a biker or kick ass ex-marine." He winked at her, and realized he was still holding onto her hand as they walked more into the building's central area. He thought her hip dance was a little sexy and smirked. "So.. you could become bored and watch me do combat, or you can just adventure around this place. I haven't seen most of it myself."

((*smacks you* Calm down! I will not engage in any erotic situation while I am at Karen's.)) Taking her hand away from Tom's, Jasmine sliced the air, mimicking kung-fu. "So are you gonna be, like, a ninja or something?" Afterward, she returned her hand to Tom's, smiling sheepishly. Breaking away from her usual intentions, Jasmine was not trying to flirt with Tom. She was enjoying the moment with him by her side. She didn't want to let go like last time. Too many nights did she wallow in her worries over him. Now that she was reunited, she wanted it to stay beside him. "Nah," she said, "I've explored most of this place throughout the months I've been here. It's a very nice place." She swung her and Tom's arms as they walked. "... Jane Doe is evidently a prostitute," said a voice behind the corner that Tom and Jasmine were approaching. "She was wearing skimpy clothing and her body was found at a notorious john hangout." "Did a werewolf give her a deathly STD?" asked another. Three people appeared from the corner and headed toward the two. One of those people happened to be V. He had a file filled with various papers. Shaking his head, he said, "Well, it just so happens, Richard, that there are other ways to kill a person besides having sex with them. This method happened to be the dismemberment... de la cabeza." "Of the head," murmured Jasmine. The three halted their brisk pace to stare at the two. "Ouch. Did you find it?" "Negative," said the one who wasn't Richard. "But we do think that a werewolf or a vampire murdered this woman because her head was ripped off, not severed." "The Jane Doe's palms have fingernail prints in them," muttered V with a bitter face. "This means that she was alive when he tore off her head." Jasmine grimaced and V smiled at both of them, saying, "Greetings to you both." He looked at Tom and said, "I'm getting the vibe that you wish to speak to me. What is it?"
Alan didn't want Rescue bothering everyone while they were eating, but now that they were finished he was released from the car. The dog seldom wandered far from his master's side, so he was spared a leash. As Kate lingered beside a group of trees, Cora sprinted over toward her, screaming. She hid behind a tree and yelled, "Come find me!" Several meters away, Alan was rotating around and then headed right toward where Kate and Cora were. "Hey, Chelse," he said (pretending that he didn't know where Cora was, which he made evident in his tone of voice) stopping beside her. "How are you doing?" "I'm doing," she replied. "G-double o-D. Hey, have you, uh, seen Cora... around... at all?" Playing along, Kate smiled and said, "I don't know... what does she look like?" "Oh, well, she's a little, four-foot-five, wart-faced gremlin!" Cora jumped out from behind the tree and yelled, "I am not!" "There you are!" said Alan, rushing over to Cora and lifting her in the air. She giggled furiously as he swung her around and then fell to the ground, making high-pitched laughs. Megan leaped on Alan and said, "Say uncle! Say it!" "Never!" he cried. They began tickling him and he made those goofy laughs again. Then he reached in his pocket and pulled out a rather small, silver box out. Megan and Cora began to scream and then ran away. Smiling, he got up and walked over to Kate. "Hey, can you look at me and smile?" Kate obliged, making a weird smile. He then took out the box again and snapped a picture of her. White lights appeared in her eyes when she blinked. "I guess I should tell you about my OCD," he said, leaning against the tree behind Kate. "I am a camera fanatic. I take pictures all the time, even of little bugs that appear. Speaking of which..." Alan spotted a fuzzy, blue and brown caterpillar on the tree trunk and took a close-up picture of it. It fell off immediately afterward. "Oops." Kate stifled laughter. Swinging the camera from the strap on his finger, Alan said, "So, uh, yeah. You've been warned." He snapped another picture of Kate and ran off.

[[*looks down* AAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW....]]
Tom raised an eyebrow at V's group. He squeezed Jaz's hand, then let go to take a step forward to reply to V. "Yeah. You're right. I was just wondering if I'd have to do anything besides Karate today." He looked over his shoulder at Jaz and smiled. "I just kinda wanted to catch up with Jaz, so..." He rubbed the back of his head nervously. From what he heard, and was now on his mind, was about Jane Doe. The wolves were acting up... He then just randomly asked, "V, was the body even devoured at all?"

((You'll get over it.)) All three of them looked down at the intertwined hands of Tom and Jasmine. Richard was trying to stifle a giggle, but let out a single laugh. V's left hand swooped Richard in the face and he staggered backward. "Res-pect!" yelled V. Jasmine smothered a smile that appeared on her face; apparently, she wasn't ashamed of PDA. Richard slowly rose to his feet and apologized. V turned to Tom and said, "There is no Karate on Mondays. Those classes are on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. And to reply to your other question, no, not a single bite mark. And her body wasn't drained of blood, so that lowers the likliness of the vampire theory. But perhaps this psycho only likes to feast upon the head of victims. Nevertheless, we won't be ruling out anything just yet." "You're like a werewolf/vampire detective," said Jasmine. Nodding, he said, "I suppose you could address me as that. So how are the two of you doing?" V eyed Tom. "This young lady was very anxious to see you, Thomas."

[[*cries* Hey, look at the skins and hit Metal Alchemy. FMA... duh.]]
Tom just frowned at V's response. "That's odd. Normally the wolves just feast... I wonder what their purpose was." He smiled at Jaz's laughter, and even let out a snicker himself. "V you really have a way with people. And okay then, I'll be with Jaz the whole day." He blushed at V's comment. "Yeah... we're real old friends." Was all he said. "Come on, Jaz. Let's go find something to do...or somewhere to talk." He took her hand again, and then somewhat jogged away from the three men. When he rounded the corner, he looked at her. "Sorry, V scares me... but I'm guessing that's how he wants it." He raised an eyebrow. "So, what have you been up to? Any 'howlers' from before that were bugging you. I suppose they were if V had to obliviate your whole apartment."

When V and the others came away, Jasmine laughed and replied, "I feel pretty bad for you. It's not long before you'll be groveling to V just like the others." As she walked, she leisurely leaped about the hallway, occasionally makig lazy twirls. "Oh, nothing much," she said in a drawl. "To help out with the rent, Rico and I managed to find ourselves some jobs. He took up delivering newspapers and I got into... well, stripping." Rubbing the back of her neck, she murmured, "Clubs pay good money for go-go girls... and I do have the body..." She smiled and jabbed Tom in the side, saying, "Don't think that I'm gonna give you a free-of-charge lap dance just because you're a friend. I need my dough first. Fifty dollars for seven minutes in 72 virgin Heaven." She gave him a wink and returned to walking normally.

"Me, groveling? Haha..." Tom joked, but not liking the thought. He'd just be quiet around V so he wouldn't have to grovel. As they walked, Tom thought of Rico being a really good paper boy. He smiled at the thought, but at Jaz's next words, he whirled his head to look at her to see if she was serious. "Jaz! Holy shit!" He rubbed his side where she had touched him. "That is dangerous, especially with 'wolves and vamps around," his forhead creased with worry, "I don't want you to get hurt..or... anything." Now it was his turn to rub the back of his neck. His jaw dropped at Jaz's words. "J-Jazmine!" He gasped, blushing furiously. His face scrunched up and he tickled her sides mercilessly. "Who the hell said I was a virgin?!" He laughed. Even if he was, it was a man's pride to say if he wasn't a virgin, even if that man was a werewolf that couldn't be around his best friend without endangering of the 'wolf raping her. He stopped at once at the thought of his and Kate's problem. He went back to frowning and sighed. "Just, be careful." He said to her as he rounded another corner and found himself by a fountain. An angel was pouring water from its hands into the rest of the fountain, flowing beautifully. He sat down on it, and then looked to Jaz. "So.. how is the job? You haven't actually... you're not a ahem... hooker... so..." He scratched his neck restlessly, blushing a little more deeply.

Shaking her head, Jasmine stared at Tom with a dull look. He reacted to it as if she claimed she was in prostitution. "What do you mean it's dangerous?" she asked, putting her hands on her hips. "We're just stripping our clothes off as we dance around a pole; it's not that dangerous. Besides, as a policy of the club I work at, the girls are given a Tazer and I already have a gun wherever I go. It's not like I have any direct actions with the ravers... unless I give them a lap dance, but there are always bouncers waiting for any jackass to pull any crap on me." Jasmine put her hand in her back pocket and pulled out a business card. "Look, I have my own card," she said giddily, indicating it to Tom. The card depicted a flattering image of Jasmine lying upon a white silk bed, barley covered by her sexy maid outfit. Her long black hair was strew across her bulging chest along with a red feathered duster. Below her were the words 'Miss Flower Maid' and then a cell phone number. "I also participate in a sex hotline which is kind of tedious but paydays are generous, but I would never degrade myself to prostitution. Now that is dangerous." She took back the card, saying, "But the work is fine and the money is extra fine..."

Tom gritted his teeth nervously as Jaz chewed him out, but trying not to smile at the same time. She had a point, and he knew she'd won. However, that didn't stop his face from getting redder and redder. "Okay, okay!" He laughed, and then took the card and his cheeks only darkened more. He felt a hot flash that ran 'below the belt'. He cleared his throat. "Ah.. great," he croaked, letting her take the card back before his pants started 'growing'. He scratched his head and stood up. "Say, do you wanna get some breakfast?"
