She sat in the back of the in drinking a cold glass of water. She was tired of her usual Rum and was not thirsting for blood. Her thoughts were turned towardsher meeting with her brother, and the unusual meeting with Hannibal. She still hadnt understood why he had left like he did or why he had bothered talking to her. She shrugged and watched the occupants of the inn smiling to herself. They had no idea what she was and accepted her. She wished everyone could do the same.

He'd been staggering his way into town for the past hour now. He hadnt expected to even make it that far. The fight was long, and drawn out, and in the end he was the one that got the shit end in it. He'd reached the borders of the town by now, and saw a sign that said "Inn" that was all he could read. He walked up the steps, and opened the doors, looking at everyone. He was bloody everywhere, his face had big scratches, and his body had been tattered and bruised. He wasnt sure if anyone would even come to his aid, but he smiled, at least knowing he'd die in a warm place.

She had been looking at the door when he walked in. She didnt recognize him at first but knew it was a human. And if she had any compassion for anyone it was this race of creatures. She stood slowly and walked to the door, "Poor soul. You look terrible."

He smiled when he heard a sweet voice. He was sure it was a female. He tried to look at her, but everything was blurry from the blood coming from the scratch above his eyes. "Dont we all, Princess.." He laughed.

She looked at him recognizing him finally, "Hannibal? what the hell happend to you?" She ripped a peice off the bottom of her shirt and dipped it in some water she found on the nearest table and began to wipe the blood away. "Are you ok?" She was worried about him, she was more woried that her brother had done this.

He remained silent, as he felt her clean his face, and slowly he regained his focus, seeing it was Nailana. he smiled broadly, and attempted to grab her hand."Well, I'm sure you notice, I dont have my beauty Queen looks anymore. I got my ass beat pretty badly." He laughed, holding his stomach as he felt pain shoot up his spine.

She smiled at him genuinely, "Looks like I should have been there to save the day. But you dont look that bad, as a matter of fact I think the fight may have improved your looks." She dabbed at his cuts a bit more then froze when he grabbed his stomach, "Come on lets get you to my table so i can clean you up better."

"No, it's alright, I'm afraid if I move I'll shit my pants." he laughed, "I'm not kidding, Nailana." He remained still, just letting her clean his wounds. "Now why would you help me? You dont seem like the charitable kind, unless the charity involved sticking your foot up someone's ass, mine probably."

She settled on the floor next to him, "Hannibal you cant stay here. You'll get trampled." She looked at him and dabbed at more of his cuts, "I thought you were a mere human is all. I dont usually show charity, but I have a soft spot for humans." She looked into his eyes her hand halted, "I have a bit of a temper dont I? I sometimes say things that I dont mean."

He shrugged. "Tempers can be good, you're a red-head, you're supposed to be fiery." He slowly got up, and moved to a spot right next to the door, lying down once again. "As you can see, I'm just Hannibal. But you dont have to do this, Nai."

She stood as well and went to the bar keep to get bandages and more water, "I Know Hannibal. But I want to." She sat beside him and started to dress his wounds again, "We need to form an alliance Hannibal. I need you." She stared at the cut she was dressing and didnt look at him.

"You need me? Hell Nailana, you can probably kick more ass than I can shit after eating beans." He cringed slightly, "Ow...anyway, let me guess, your brother, right? The shit-eater, right?" He looked at her, finding her breathtakingly beautiful.

She nodded and looked at him, "I may look tough Hannibal, but I can not take on my brother. I may not show it but I am afraid of him." She smiled, "Besides i think you could benifit from my expertise, might prevent you from getting your ass kicked."

He laughed. "I only got my ass kicked cos I let myself get distracted with the past, but that wont be happening again." He sat up, slowly. "I'll help you against shit-eater, dont worry. But right now, I need to find a bathroom, because Hannibal's got the runs."

She giggled and grabbed his arm to help him up, "You shouldnt let the past interfere. Come on there is a bathroom over here. I'll help you to it. Lean on me." She smiled at him, "Thank you as well."
