Dead man walking (Esme)

[Ukilit]

@esme
Ukilit inhaled the sweet night air. Oh how he missed the world of the living. All though the abyss had its own charm something about Teair was just wonderful. Maybe its just the new body Ukilit thought. Or maybe it's having a full memory again, or maybe it's- "YOU BLACK-EYED BASTARD." A loud voice snapped Ukilit out of his thought and by he realized what he was doing again. He looked down to his feet, where a man laid. The man stared up at Ukilit, obviously angry. Blood dripped down from the side of his head. "What are you waiting for?" The man asked. "Just kill me already!" Ukilit chuckled but didn't remove his gaze from the man. "Why would I kill you? You only tried to to rob me. I think bashing you in the head with the hilt of your own sword was humiliating enough. Maybe it will teach you to pick your targets more wisely. Besides I'm trying to stay off the radar. I won't go into why as that's none of your buisness but killing someone would probably put me on the radar don't you think? Anyway have a wonderful night and don't try this again." Ukilit grinned and walked off, ignoring the man who was shouting very obscene profanities at him. The third district residents just have no class. Well if I have to I guess I can teach this place manners one day.

Esme had just exited a near by building when she heard the shouting. Just kill me already! That didn't sound good... She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, leaning around a corner to get a better view. The was a man standing over another, talking low enough she couldn't quite make out. Suddenly the man turned and walked away, leaving the injured man alone, with what looked like a head wound.

Curious, Esme followed, ducking behind buildings and avoiding the sight of both men. She wore a read cloak, with the hood down, a V-shaped neckline and long sleeves. The cloak was tied together with buttons at her midsection, separating from there out, billowing slightly in the wind. Under it, was a simple black tank top and tight black pants, black combat boots to match. Her blonde hair was curly, resting on her shoulders and down her back. Her sword was of course attached at her hip, below the cloak, her shield on her back.

Once they she had followed him a few blocks away from his victim, she stepped out from the shadows. She had seen him from various angles at this point, enough to have spotted his eyes. Hey, you! She called out, wanting his attention, her hand hovering over her hilt.

As Ukilit walked away he whistled a tune he knew by heart. As he walked further he couldn't shake the feeling that someone was following him. As he had assumed, someone was indeed following him, obviously wanting him to stop. Ukilit sighed and turned, speaking as he did so. "Look I don't know who you are and what you want but I am an extremely busy man right now so plea-wait a minute.....I've seen you from somewhere......I can't recall where but I definitely remember a face like yours....but either way I need you to leave as I'm very busy right now." Ukilit saw her hand near her hilt and figured what ever she wanted...it wasn't going to be good. And more than likely she was more skilled than the man Ukilit had left to bleed. Ukilit loosened his hand incase he needed to quickly cast a spell at the woman. His power was still weak here but he could still protect himself.

Huh well that's funny because i don't recognize yours at all.. and yet, I know you. She stated flatly, narrowing her eyes as she got a better look at his face. She had never seen this man before, but she knew his eyes. Eyes that were completely black, terrifying to mortal eyes. Luckily, Esme was no mortal.

Why so anxious to leave? What do you have planned next? Kicking a homeless man? Stealing from children? Ouuu, let me guess, killing for sport? She spoke with a fake interest in her voice, a clear sacastic tone audible. She took another step closer.

What are you doing out of the Abyss. She asked directly, face void of all emotion and hand still lingering over her sword.

[Ukilit]

Ukilit was extremely confused with the woman. She kept asking what he going to do and Ukilit was about to answer when he heard those dreaded words. "What are you doing out of the Abyss." Memories flooded back to him and he realized who she was now. "Oh.....it's Mylee's little angel. I don't know what you aren't doing here and honestly I could care less. I'm doing nothing wrong and you have no reason to attack me. If the guards find this they will assume your trying to assault a bystander. Beating that man was in self-defense and I spared his life. You are making it seem like I'm a pyscopath." Ukilit squinted and was starting to get interested in what she actually was doing here? He wouldn't think Mylee would send one of his own angels just to deal with him. Something had to be up. "Since you stopped me and are obviously trying to stall, what are you doing here anyway? I wouldn't think Mylee would have noticed me sneaking past during this Morgg ruckus and even if he did. Why would he risk an angel to take me out? Unless.....your not in his good graces anymore....." Ukilit grinned at Esme, figuring that is exactly what was going on.

Esme cringed inwardly at his remembrance of who she was. Aside from those who had found her when she'd fallen, no one else knew. As he rambled on to himself, she felt herself shaking her head. It was what he did- manipulate words, put them into your mouth- made you think you were terrible, or those around you were.

She didn't say anything as he paused, waiting for him to slip up. When he continued, he was on about why Mylee would send his guard to the kingdom, what purpose could he have... Esme winced again as he figured it out, narrowing her eyes at him, her hand resting on the hilt now. You know, I dont think it's any of your business what I'm doing here. We both know regardless of the answer Mylee would simply love to know you're running around his precious Teair again. She smirked, tilting her head to the side with mild arrogance.

[Ukilit]

Ukilit watched Esme set her hand on her hilt. She seemed to be getting closer and closer to cutting him to pieces. "I will say again, violence isn't going to solve this problem. You kill me you'll be wanted for killing an innocent man and my form will be unaffected. I will just return to the Abyss and steal another idiot's body, rinse and repeat. But of course Mylee knowing about me is very bad for me and I will likely end up like my usurper. But I don't think I will do anything yet. If my banishment is anything to go on, the removal of angels probably isn't very graceful and if that is the case, I would believe Mylee really wouldn't like to see or hear you because is just that kind of prick. And even if you do get to tell him he is very likely going to be very busy with his crazy niece. You probably will be to, I mean she is trying to release something that tried to burn everything and had a good chance of succededing. I'm sure you wouldn't want that to be loose would you? And why should Mylee believe about me? As far as the Abyss is concerned I am dead, consumed by my usurper. If my own realm thinks I'm dead, why would Mylee think otherwise" Ukilit stared at Esme with his soulless eyes. His face showed no more emotion, he wasn't playing games anymore, he was dead serious.

[Deleted]

Esme made a face as he spoke. An innocent man? Was he serious? She grumbled quietly to herself, unhappy that his point was valid. His form would just possess the life of another, making her time and effort wasted. You're incredibly cocky for a dead man. She commented, removing her hand from the hilt. Mylee may be pissed off with me, but when it comes to you we both know he'd listen. And on the chance that he wouldn't; who said I'm in bad graces with any of the other Pantheon? Esme smirked, cracking her neck.

Despite my falling, why would I ever have a reason to lie about you returning? You can run, and you can hide, but we both know if they ever found out you're back, they would smite you where you stand; no matter what body you're in, no matter where you're hiding. She mused allowed, placing a hand on her hip and losing the fighting stance. He wouldn't risk hurting her; in that body he had to know it was a lost battle before it begun.

But you are right about Helena. She needs to be dealt with, and she will be. I don't suppose you have anything to help with that?

[Ukilit]

Ukilit laughed "Well if we are technically speaking I am not dead. And yes that is quite true....but I think he is a little busy with her mad niece. Meanwhile the others are also busy dealing with her as well. That's why I chose right now, so that I didn't to worry about them." Ukilit continued to listen to Esme talk her little mouth off thinking she had nailed him down. She was smart...he would give her that, but he continued to have all the cards. "You wouldn't lie about me returning I will give you that. They gods always seem to try to hastily get rid of their problems. They will strike anything possibly threatening down for they are terrified of these things. That did it for me...for my successor...and especially for *them*" Ukilit went silent as he suddenly looked to the sky watching something for a short period before he continued to give his full attention to Esme. "No. My power is only a remnant of what is really is in this body. I left most of it so I could blend in with the crowds when the gods got their attention back to Nova. You're on your own on that front but I am sure you will be her. She is afraid, I can tell. Her fear is making desperate and trying to awaken something she can't control in false hope it will serve her. But that thing destroys weakness and will take her out first before anything.
