クレア

"Watch out!"

The male almost nearly got knocked over as she ran past him at such a speed but she was quickly halted to a stop due to a little boy getting in the way. "SHIT! Which way did it go?!" Now golden eyes, quickly looking around but the monster disguised as human had vanished into a sea of people. Clare really hated bustling cities, it made it hard to navigate in and now that she stopped, she looked back and saw the few people she nearly knocked over including the younger male.

Judging by her appearance, a knightly outfit so she can handle herself independently in the face of danger. Unfortunately, he doesn’t know any nearby towns for substances.

“Food is scarce, but you’re not one of those poor common folks that struggle every day.” He tossed her freshly cooked legs of an undetermined creature to the ground. Truth be told, he has too many resources on his person. 

It wouldn’t hurt to share some of it away.

“Don’t expect any nearby towns to provide anything. The food shortage is plaguing these areas. It’s no one’s fault, but thems. They should’ve gotten themselves prepared before winter hits sooner or later.”

An apathetic cold tone of voice disturbingly. As long he can survive the season himself, he shouldn’t concern himself over the needs of strangers. 

They choose whether to stay alive in the breeze of hazardous blizzards. 

“I don’t need much food anyways, only a few bites will suffice.” Usually anyways. It depends on how long she’ll go without eating, and this time she did push her limit a bit. Instantly catching the tossed leg before it hit the ground, she examined it before taking a bite out of it, eyes still not leaving his. “Thanks.” She spoke softly as she chewed the mystery meat.

And it only took a few bites until she was full, simply tossing the rest to the side. “I don’t ever go in expecting anything... I can fend for myself. Though it seems the humans will surely be struggling this winter... it’ll be more dangerous in other ways..” Expecting that youma will also be hungry and defenseless and hungry humans make easy pray.

He actually got an answer out of her, good, he thought to himself as he closed the distance until he was arms length from her. He towered over her as he did most people but that large sword she carried made it clear she was not someone to take lightly.

“So that’s what there called, Youma, I wonder what exactly they are. From your words I gather your a half youma? Interesting so I was right about you not being human, of course nether and I but I’m no youma I am a vampire.” He says while grinning wide to show off his long fangs, he also readied himself in case she immediately attacked as many did once they find out what he is.

“If food or drink don’t interest you perhaps you would like some companionship on this cold night? After all there’s a lot about you I wish to learn and I have a feeling you wish to learn about me as well.” He put his hands on his hips and introduced himself “ my name is Dio Brando, what’s your name miss half-youma?”

Eyes still cautious as he approached, she didn’t move in inch, he was tall for sure so she had to look up when speaking with him but Clare surely didn’t lower her guard. Especially since she had no who or what this man is.  Though that would soon later be answered for her.

“So you have seen some around then...” It was hard to track them down now as cities got more populated but it seems they’re not the only monster she has to worry about now. “They’re a creature with a history too long to tell you about. But yes, you are correct. You sure can figure out things easily, though... I shouldn’t be surprised considering what you are... I’ve heard of vampires through stories humans tell, I never came across one in my journeys so I figured they were a myth as well.” She paused briefly, head tilting ever so slightly in to look at his fangs more. Interesting, she thought.

She wasn’t going to attack, she had no reason too as of now besides she has no information on what his kind is like aside from stories and that could all be made up for all she knew. So cautious she still was being. There was a question she wanted to ask but she had a feeling he wouldn’t answer unless she took him up on her offer.

With a small sigh, she folded her arms over her chest and relaxed a little. “I really don’t need companionship but as you said correctly, I am interested to know more about you and I suppose it’s only fair I give you information in return...” She doesn’t normally give out her name but this time she could make an exception.

Clare was so use to being on her own for so long that the thought of help seemed really foreign to her. It's not like her to be lost, but here she was not knowing where to find food and it's been a week since she ate so it was time to refuel but it was one of those days where nothing seemed to be going well.

Was it obvious how lost in her thoughts she was? It wasn't like Clare to think much on the past but with living such a long life there were times it just couldn't be helped. Looking over to the strange male beside her she simply blinked while her silver eyes lingered on him though such loneliness was evident in them that even a kid could notice.
