A silver fountain caked with mud...

The club had simply continued to grow more and more popular. they were now hosting live bands well if you could really call them live. She had found several vampire or shifter based music groups not all of them were new blood most in fact were older then she was.

She had brokered and bartered for their acts with their masters paving new accords in the process. The music styles had a broad range but most were within the dark gothic nature or they were rock or pop.

4 out of 6 nights hosted live bands now and 3 of those night Thurs Fri and saturday had two or three bands and the headliners were usually the most popular of them all.

Katrina sat back in a booth in the Vip lounge area it was safer here. Less press tried to sneak in. but she could still watch the shows her enforcers were about she had attracted new blood and some old blood to the city.

T'Lynx'tri stalked into the club. The smell of the dead surrounded him like a mist. The Leader of the Vamps had to be around here somewhere. For the sake of Sorcha and her standing he would play nicely with the corpses. He saw a Picture of the master of the City from last weeks news. Walking the perimeter of the main floor, he walked up to the foot of the stairs of the VIP Section. The guards stood ready to bar the path. I am here to meet the Master of the city this is official business do not bar my path. Hopefully the Master would be here or the bouncer would have the forethought to inform his Master that someone was here.

T'lynx'tri almost wished that someone had barred his path. On the nights that he was in the mood for blood letting none ever did.

Katrina stood wearing a pencil skirt a white blouse with a waist cinching corset. Her brown hair was caught back in a more 1950's style and her makeup was expertly done. She could pass for human amoung the untrained eyes of the humans that were popular in the club. She was actually making her way down out of the VIP area. A problem had arisen and she needed to take care of it before the situation got out of control.

She was stopped short by a security member indicating T'lynx'tri. She could almost feel the hostility wafting off of him. To be the unflappable woman she was she proceeded down the stairs she didn't even pause to speak to Ty'lynx'tri. She did say however. "Follow me. If you will."

This would likely have to be handled behind the scenes thus the paparazzi couldn't get a handle on it at all.

T’lynx’tri looked at Katrina and the slightest ghost of a smile crossed his lips. She was lovely for a corpse. This meeting had to take place because Sorcha aligned herself with the undead. The coffin truants were a heady lot, and yet the spent the majority of their time imitating that which they lost.

T’lynx’tri walked right next to her. He had to shorten his gait to stay within her stride.
“Sure, why not?”

He resisted the urge to lose himself in the smell that emanated from her flesh. The feeling was not sexual in nature it was just that for as long as he could remember he has been on a battlefield and the smells that buffeted him from the time that he slept to the next time he slept were so much harsher.

“It is a bit early to be ashamed of me isn’t it?”
T’lynx’tri amused himself with his small joke. He thought better of offering his elbow. It was a bit paranoid however for one who made his home on the battlefield, paranoia allowed him to wake the next morning.

Katrina smiled a slow smile. She remembered this creature. from Sorcha's spring fling. So much happened that night however. She moved at an easy gait that poured her through the patrons as the moved out of her way. And she opened a door into the back area.

She entered first held the door for Ty' and then closed it behind him before anyone could get curious. the electronic lock relocking automatically. She smiled to Ty and then turned headed on into the back area and aiming to the problem zone.

"Now if I had been ashamed of you. You would have simply been escorted around back and not allowed to approach me on your own as you did. and business would have taken place in the private offices that run the business here.

"You however arrived when a problem has arisen and they called me to come settle it. Apparently one of the act's is getting cold feet they haven't been infront of this large a crowd and in the public light as what they are. Its a group of were wolves. There is something or other that has them frightened and I am going to calm nerves and the like. You obviously need to speak with me and rather then leave you out in the masses I'll just have you join me that way once ruffled fears are managed we can get back to what it is you need from me."

She smiled again. As she turned a corner and the room opened up to a small living room like area which had some basic refreshments a pair of comfortable couches and about 5 lycan thropes 2 female and 3 male. They were what made up the group Hollow Moon. At the moment however it was 2 against 3 one of the males was standing aside one of the girls. They were obvious they did not want to go on stage. This was one of their first big breaks into the music scene.

T’lynx’tri looked over the crowd of agitated were creatures. His mind was tuned down to a lower, more animalistic setting. He began focusing on his shields. T’lynx’tri shields locked in place without a sound and yet to T’lynx’tri it carried the sound of liquid flowing over rocks.

T’lynx’tri leaned against wall watching Katrina. His gaze had the weight of the centuries of war and death. His inner rage of a life denied provided the heat that breathed life into stare.

“It appears that they are in need of soothing. You can almost taste the fear.”

T’lynx’tri eyes swept over the were creatures. Then back to Katrina.

“This should be interesting.”

Without thought T’lynx’tri smiled, but the he knew when he was in his war mind. The smile was predatory at best. Almost like the look in the eye of a hawk once it spotted it’s prey.

Katrina looked from the cluster of wolves. A soft and gentle smile had come across her face she looked back to Ty’Lynx. “Their fears are easily soothed and then you and I will have plenty of time.” She controled her delight at just this little taste of the flavor of their fears she clamped it down and shoved it aside.

“If you would so Kindly excuse me for a few moments while I ally their fears.” Katrina moved over to the group in mid step she seemed to exude the scent of wolf. Of home. She stepped to the ones whom were afraid raised a hand in a hold back gesture to the others and spoke softly to the other two.

She lifted the hand of the girl in her own and held it between both of her’s. Murmmering words of confidance and passifing all of the fears befores the grew to out of hand. The scent of wolf which had already been heavy was simply slightly stronger now. She called to them these wolves in turn she gave each a gentle but soft guiding touch she didn’t roll them just called to that beastial part of them. Finally they were ready the girl and the boy both smiling now and confidant that they could do this. Realizing there wasn’t going to be a live broadcast and the were fine.

Katrina watched one of the stage hands come out and signal that they were up. She watched them all file out and smiled. She turned and moved back to Ty’Lynx and smiled. She didn’t look like the predator she was. The petite form that did not reveal in any way what she was in reality.

“And now that the dramatic’s are over. What is it you have come to me for. And not our dear Sorcha.”

[Deleted]

T’lynx’tri watched as the master of the city proved why she was a master of the city. She soothed the fears of the were’s as if she was born to do it. She flooded through their emotions with a undeniable grace. He waited until the last of the fear dissipated before he said anything.

“Well that was some good entertainment. I am here in a bit of an official capacity; Because Sorcha allied herself with the kiss I am here to be weighed for acceptation into the city.”

T’lynx’tri took a deep breath as he waited for the next few seconds.

“Well now that’s over what are the acts for tonight.”

T’lynx’tri buried the war mind into the darkness less swallows him whole.

[kitty]

Katrina smiled a rare smile to T'lynx. She casually looked Ty over.

" i am flattered you would approach the kiss to present yourself for acceptance within the city however it is un needed. Sorcha polices the Arcadians as far as I am aware."

She looked back into the back stage area. " We have a line up of a few local groups and a few out of city I have scouts now scroungin the country for talent. I may brach ito the music business and see what can be done there. But you are very much welcome to enjoy the music and everything from the VIP area tonight."

She looked back to him. She was still smiling.

[Deleted]

T’lynx’tri watched the vampire Katrina as she moved from the corner of his eyes.

“While Sorcha does Police the Arcadians at least I hope so. She Is in league with the kiss, so it is just good form to present formally.”

T’lynx’tri felt the more bestial nature that he submerged himself into recede. He was closer to being if not human again at least humane. His smile started to brighten, to become less predatory and more genuine.

“The VIP would be a welcomed change of pace. As far as the music business, they make the were’s and vamps seem like nice guys.”

He offered her a nod and walked towards the VIP section. He could like Katrina but he would not be inclined to trust her anytime soon.
