K E L I S S A N D E"Your love was my relief, my love is your release." A quiet sigh left her parted lips. Was it even remotely possible for a grizzly bear to be anything but..grizzly? As she jogged through the cemetary, that's all she could really think about. She sighed quietly, feeling the familiar weight of her gun pressed to her side beneath the fabric of her shirt. It was rather comforting, albeit a bit awkward still. She knew she'd get nothing from this life of the next. Maybe that's why she chose to give up the little bit of good and sanity she had left by taking up a job that required her to kill others.
It's not like she wanted this, but she knew it was the only thing she was really good at when push came to shove. She sighed quietly and shook her head so that black, curled locks fell before her face. She'd put it up in a ponytail but that was more work than she wanted to deal with. As the cold chill whispered along her skin like a welcoming lover, she marveled in the mere simplicity of peace. She was dressed in her usual attire. A black shirt, a black coat, black pants, black shoes, and black socks. Black on black sounds swell..

Amongst the darkness of the night, and the simple eerieness of the graveyard, a boy rested crouched on one of the black granite crosses to mark those who decided to pay alot of money for somthing that would mark their burial spots. Ryu was staring up at the sky, frowning to himself and thinking about how much he hated the city and all it's light pollution. Stupid epirménos malákes...think they can just pollute the earth that keeps them alive. He shook his head and looked away from the dispicable excuse for a starry sky, facing the direction of the gentle cold night's breeze, letting it blow his medium lengthed dark brown hair around. He let out a long, loud sigh, almost as if he were breathing out his problems to be cleansed by the wind.
Ryu wore a simple white button up collared long-sleeved shirt and a pair of fadded blue jeans along with a pair of white running shoes. In the dark, a boy dressed in a white shirt crouching on top of the left arm of a black granite cross wasn't exactly blending in. Looking down at his digital watch, he began to count down silently to himself, three secconds in total before his watch began bleeping in an annoyingly high pitched klaxon noise, not by any means loud, but if the dead could be woken up, there would have been alot of disgruntled dead walking around.

K E L I S S A N D E"Your love was my relief, my love is your release." She halted dead in her tracks as her finely tuned senses picked up on the sound of beeping. Instinct told her to pull out her gun and put her finger on the tigger. As the familiar weight of the gun was nestled within her capable hands, she silently advanced. Every so often, she glanced downwards to ensure that she wasn't about to rustle leaves, twigs, or anything that could make a noise and alert somebody that she was approaching. Eyes flickered faintly in the light of the moon as she continued her slow but steady, cautious progression. She'd be damned if she was the one who was about to get a bullet in her head. One..two..three..
"Show yourself!" She snarled as the pretty features of her face transformed into something that resembled rage and distrust. Then again, the persona of her shift usually bubbled to the surface. A wry smile tugged at her lips. First rule of survival was blend in with your surroundings and make sure you were prepared for anything. So far, she'd met both requirements. She'd never been the type to run from conflict, despite the fact she disliked it with a burning passion.

Ryu blinked a few times at the sound of someone else's voice and quickly shook his head from whatever far away place his mind was currently occupying. He squinted a little, gazing over the graveyard for the source of the voice, muttering to himself, "God...this would be so much easier if I were feline right now..." After seeing no one in any visable spot, he slowly stood up, now outlined against the city lights in the background to look more like a black figure on top of the cross. Taking a deep breath of the cold night air as he contemplated his options before finaly calling out, "Are you friend or foe?"
As he finished speaking, he began to scan around again, looking for the easiest way out, he wasn't willing to have a fight on a burial ground, especialy with someone who might have more training or even worse; an actual weapon. He was sure to keep his hands to his sides, showing he was unarmed. His face showed no fear, no anything really, just the dead calm of someone who's in a situation where if you think, you're dead. But his eyes gave him away, his eyes showed how afraid he really was.

K E L I S S A N D E"Your love was my relief, my love is your release." She blinked and hesitated briefly. "Depends..you an assassin?" She growled softly, moving forward slowly. She wasn't paying as much attention, and the end result was her boot snapping a twig in two. She cursed under her breath. She hadn't planned on doing so but oh well. Shit happened.
She readjusted her hold on the gun, keeping her eyes focused. Black hair hid her face from view, and she was becoming somewhat nervous. For all she knew, she could be walking into a trap without realizing it. She nibbled on her lower lip but continued to advance with slow, precise movements. Her amber eyes flickered for a moment. She had come here for some peace, and she may have stumbled upon an enemy of some sort. A quiet yawn left her.

Ryu quickly turned his head in the direction of the snapping twig, hesitating and re-adjusting the rest of his body to face there before responding, "If you're an assassin, then you don't need to worry about me machaíroma sas sto píso méros" Ryu used the old Greek words for Stabbing you in the back as a habbit, Greek being his seccond language he tended to throw some Greek into his sentances, even though he didn't ever considder that other people might not speak Greek like himself.
Hoping he got his message through, he spoke nearly immediately after he finished his last sentance, "If you're an assassin like me, then I don't think that you need to be so secretive anymore, for starters I'm unarmed" He held his hands up above his head briefly before letting them drop slowly, showing that he was indeed unarmed. The wind blew another soft gust of cold night wind, tossing his bangs out of his face and the rest of his hair backwards gently.

K E L I S S A N D E"Your love was my relief, my love is your release." She nodded slowly. His words made sense. There was just one question remaining. Could she really trust him? It's not like she could let him close enough to destroy her just yet, right? She had more brains than that after all. Her eyes flickered as she stayed silent for several, long moments.
What could she possibly tell him that he hadn't already heard? It's not like she could go up and boldly introduce herself. Slowly and rather relunctantly, she lowered her gun and stepped from the shadows while taking in a sharp breath. Black tresses hid the pale features of her face from view. Now that she was visible, what did she say? She couldn't simply apologize for about threatening him. He would have to understand she had done it to protect herself.

Ryu let the corners of his lips slowly curl up into a small, friendly smile. Speaking, after seeing her lower the gun, "Well, do you trust me enough to let me jump down yet, or should we make small talk until you trust me?" Crossing his arms in front of his chest he chuckled softly, not entirely sure that he was able to feel safe yet, but he wasn't on edge anymore. He understood the mistrust that she felt though, on several occasions he had trusted someone too early, and got himself injured. Although a broken leg was rather minor.
"And before you answer that, I'm going to go ahead and tell you my name so there's no You, what are you doing here anyways? or anything like that, instead you can call me by my name. I'm Ryu Hawkeye," He made a little bow, arms still crossed. He hoped to God that he wasn't making a mistake here in trusting this female, but in the end he was still that impulsive. Quickly glancing at his watch he looked back at her, the forecast said that it was supposed to start raining at around midnight, which wasn't very far away. Not that it concearned him in the least, he loved bad weather, and suddenly looked anctious.

K E L I S S A N D E"Your love was my relief, my love is your release." A brief hesitation. Slowly, the girl spoke. "Kelissande Velpin...the grizzly bear." She mumbled her portion of the introduction, always keeping her hands upon her gun. She was one of the lower ranking members, despite her attitude problem. To her, she was a grizzly thing that was rather undeserving of love in any shape or form. Considering her history, she didn't think anybody could find fault with her for low self-esteem.
Maybe they could. To her, it didn't matter either way. Dark eyes gazed downwards, taking in the miniscule ridges of her hands and the way they tended to flex when she became nervous. Her hands never shook, but her grip tended to tighten. She shifted slightly, allowing herself the chance to get better footing as her teeth nibbled along her lower lip. She didn't know what to do at this point nor did she care. At this point, she didn't know what she wanted.

Ryu nodded slowly and shrugged his shoulders, unfolding his arms. He spoke after unfolding his arms, "Well I sure hope that a grizzly bear such as yourself can get along with a jaguar such as myself" He chuckled and stepped forward off of the cross, falling straight down like an arrow with his feet flat and knees braced, landing on his feet with his knees absorbing the impact making for a pretty soft landing. He straightened up and dusted himself off.
He watched her after jumping off, making sure that she didn't jump the gun and shoot, well...the gun. He knew the bad things that happened from jumping the gun, and he didn't really want to be on the receiving end again. He looked over at her with his dark brown eyes, still wondering why it was that she was here, unless it was to escape the feeling of insignificance and to find sanctuary from the peering eyes of civilization like he himself was here for.
