Summer Wine: Open Thread

Postby Onyx » Tue Feb 28, 2012 6:57 pm

Onyx wandered into the XUB during the early evening, ordering a glass of wine and just enjoying some peace and quiet for however long it'd last.

Isabel walked in, and saw Onyx. "Hi." she said "Mind if I sit down?"

"Yeah, you really should." Isabel said "She seems to think that she is you."

"I don't understand either, but she says that she is Onyx. She looks a lot like you, actually. And she is.....missing her shadow."

"Not anymore," a quiet voice says from behind them.

As Onyx turns to look, Jane grabs her by the arm and throws her to the ground. Straddling her double with one hand over Onyx's throat.

Black lines start stretching off of Onyx, wrapping around Jane's arm. Onyx coughs and tries to struggle out of the girl's grasp.

"My shadow," Jane says, smiling happily, "Found you."

"Oy!" Connor shouted from behind the bar. "The bloody 'ell do you think yer doin', luv?" He tried forming a forcefield between the two girls to push them apart as he went to hurry around the bar.

Separating the two didn't seem in the cards. Connor would have better luck trying to separate Jane's arms from her body.

There was an explosion of shadow, tendrils snapping around Jane for a moment.

"Aly...." Onyx said weakly.

And then a shadow slid behind Jane's body and was silent. Onyx was gone.

Aly came into the bar, half a step behind the security guards, and was looking at the scene in surprise.

Connor was still just shocked, looking at Izzy to see if she had any more of a clue what was going on.

Onyx reaches into her purse and puts a large tip on the bar, "For the inconvenience, sir."

Bowing her head, she starts to walk towards the door, not sparing Aly a second glance.

"What are you talking about?" Alyson said "You aren't Onyx........what did you do with her? Did you absorb her? What are you?" only the restraining hand of the security guard on her shoulder kept Aly from grabbing the girl in front of her.

Onyx shies away a bit, "I am very sorry for your loss, ma'am."

"You may take whatever measures you must against me at your leisure."

Onyx kneels on the floor, bowing her head down before Alyson.

"That answers my question." Alyson said bitterly "If there was anything of her in you, you'd know I'd never do that to her."

"She was a person." Alyson snapped "She was beautiful and brave and wonderful. We were in love. We were going to be married."

Onyx remained silent for a moment.

"I am sorry," Onyx says, "You do not know or understand how sorry I am, ma'am."

"But she is gone."

"I was...desperate," Onyx says, "I didn't think..."

She stopped and stared down at the floor. There was nothing she could say.
