Perrin rolled his eyes. "Why are you so dramatic Namir?" he poked his tounge out before turning back. "What brings you lycan to Paris? Drama queen over there said sightseeing, but i doubt all of you lycan are here for that.." If only he had his gun he thought to himself and accidently let out a small laugh. The group continued to walk through the streets of Paris untill they came again to the Eifell tower, on the grounds below was an empty table, so Perrin placed himself on one side.

Arai couldn't help but smirk a bit to herself. This Namir was a bit melodramatic. "Personally, I'm just sort of wandering around Europe. Don't have anything else to do; staying away from the States for a while, and all that. I know Pete, but I have not had the pleasure of making Namir's acquaintance as of yet." Sitting across from Perrin, Arai ignored the gurglings in her stomach brought on by the amazing food. Yes, the French were a bit strange, what with their no-shaving and all, but they sure knew how to make food.

Namir cracked a smile at Perrin's comment, she couldn't help it. "Sorry. You're the one that's all jumpy." she looked him over. "Its a pleasure to finally meet you, Arai. I've heard so much about you from Pete." she smiled and bowed her head slightly in her direction. Namir looked around at the scenery that surrounded them, she slid into a seat and gazed into the faces of her company. The shock of Perrins golden eyes against his dark hair made him stand out the most, and Arai's beauty radiated as beams of sunlight played across her skin, and Pete..same as always, looking cool but ready to put his fist through something. Namir smiled to herself, what a sight they must look like, and she began to wonder, had anyone seen that scene in the alley? Namir's eyes swept the shadowed alley that they had emerged from previously. A trembling woman stood beside it, talking to another woman, trying to calm her. The woman began to get resistant, Namir listened closer, there was raging panic in her voice, but she couldn't make out her exact words. "Um.. I think we might have a problem."

Perrin followed Namir's eyes and looked over his shoulder. At the entrance to the alley he could make out two women arguing. Tho he couldn't hear what they were arguing about, he guessed it had something to do with them. "Two old ladies are a problem for you?" Perrin said with a smile, before being serious. "Let them gossip all they want, people will just think they are crazy. Anyway all thats in the alley now is ashes."
Perrin welcomed the sun on his face as it warmed him inside and out, perhaps later on he could find a bar while the afternoon sun was still about.

Arai nodded in affirmation. "The French are all weird. No one would listen to the words of two old ladies," she added. But it still made her a bit nervous. Drawing attention only caused problems. She knew that if a conflict came up, Pete did not have a sense of the discreet. He would most likely cause a scene in the middle of the square. She would have to keep an eye on him. But for now, they were safe. She leaned back, tipping the chair on its back two legs, and looked up at the Eiffel Tower. The soaring structure was huge, just as impressive as it looked on film. Arai was glad she came here; Paris was nice.

Namir glanced back to the women, she shrugged gently, turning back to the table.She always liked to leave smooth edges in relation with anything supernatural, who needed to go to the mental hospital for uneccessary reasons, or to be arrested... Looking around she shook it from her mind, tucking her knees up in the chair, and hugging them to her chest. "So, Arai, what brings you to Paris? I'm guessing the answer is no to the nude ballerinas." she grinned at Perrin.

"Im still hoping you will show me these 'nude ballerinas' sometime." Perrin said smiling back. He watched as Arai leaned back on her chair and was secretly hoping that she'd put too much weight and tople over. The two ladies had now drawn the attention of a passing police officer who was now trying to calm the two down and get an explanation. Perrin was about to turn back to the table when he saw the old lady point in their direction. Letting out a sigh he folded his arms on his chest and leaned back on his chair aswell. "Guess we've got some explaining to do if that man comes over. Hope he speaks english." The sun was beginning to annoy his eyes; must get some sunnies he put on his mental 'to do' list.

Arai laughed lightly, a soft, musical sound, and shook her head. "No, I can honestly say that's not what I came for," she said. Her face growing a bit mroe serious and pensive, she explained, "I just needed to get away from the states for a while. So I have been traveling around Europe a bit. Until now, I had managed to avoid drawing attention." Unfortunately for Perrin, Arai had perfect balance and was nowhere near tipping over. Her sensitive hearing picked up the rapid French of the two. She had taken a few years of French, but they were talking far too fast for her to understand them. Without staring, she looked over, watching them out of the corner of her amber eyes. The uniformed man began to head their way, the two ladies huddling together and watching them, interested in what would happen. She sighed. So much for keeping a low profile.

I told you so ,she projected to Arai, a hint of a smile on her face. The police officer started walking over at a more rapid pace, an all business look about his face. Namir invaded his thoughts, scanning through them, she could feel the waves of question, slight confusion, and determination, too bad all of his actual thoughts were in French. The officer stopped at the group's table and started to prattle off in French. Namir looked up at the officer, he had light green eyes and a belly that pressed up against his shirt, he looked as if he was in his mid thirties, his dark lush hair thinning about the crown of his head. She raised her eyebrow, "Do you speak English?" The man stopped for a second, and with a slight french accent rumbling in his voice he continued. "I'm sorry, My name is Officer LeDauc, and there seems to be a problem. A couple by standers claim to have seen your group in the alley way. My witnesses say that they saw some sort of attack, or jumping, and you and your companions match the description they gave me. Is this correct? Gang activity is forbidden in Le France." Namir looked at her companions, and back up at the officer, "No sir, there is no gang related activity going on around here. Or none that we're involved with any ways. I know nothing of what your witness is claiming." She could hear the french women's babble as they watched the officer confronting the group, her thoughts gave off the essence of hopeful yet nervous.

Perrin felt sorry for the officer, he looked young perhaps in his early twenties and he was now in over his head. "There was a fight officer, a thief tried to take my friends money." Perrin said pointing to Arai. "Unfortunatly for him she knew how to defend herself, he ran off with a bleeding nose." Perrin said matter of factly, not breaking eye contact with LeDauc. Turning to Arai, LeDauc addresed her. "Is this true madam?" He said with his strong french accent. In his hand he held a small notebook with which he had been taking notes from the ladies that stood behind him, they had began to quiten down after hearing that Arai had nearly been mugged. Perrin watched as Arai still leaned back on her chair, moving his foot under that table he gave her chair a slight kick hoping to knock her backwards.

Switching to her innocent young girl face, Arai met the officer's eyes, her own golden-brown eye wide. "It's true, officer." she said, adding a bit of a tremble to her voice, "I was walking along and a horrible man grabbed me!" Displaying her bruised wrist, she continued her story, "Fortunately, I have basic defense training, and of course my friends came to help me. The coward ran, taking my money with him." Eyes tearing up just enough, she set the chair legs down with a metallic rap. She felt Perrin's foot push against her chair and swiftly stepped on it, trapping it so he was stretched underneath the table. "It was so scary, officer, and I'm so glad that you arrived!" she exclaimed, flashing him a brilliant smile.

The officer looked at the group taking a few final notes, before turning and conversing in french with the two old ladies who soon after left. LeDauc took his hat from his head and wiped a some sweat from his brow, looking again at the group as if taking a mental picture he grunted and left.
Perrin felt Arai's foot pin his to the ground, laughing he pulled his foot out from benath hers, to the others it probably looked like he was laughing at nothing. Perrin raised his middle finger as the officer walked away. "So you girls got any plans for the rest of the day?" He said counting Pete as a girl.

Namir watched the scene as the officer grunted and left them to their business. "Nice going." she said to the group. "That was easy enough. I'm surprised he didn't make you file a report." Curiously she watched as Perrin and Arai burst out in random laughter, she raised an eyebrow, but didn't say anything more. "I don't really know, but Paris is a beautiful place to paint. Or do some hunting." she smiled. "Vampires and nasty creatures ofcourse." Namir got an gleam in her eye that she couldn't help it, mischief and tomfoolery were her driving forces in life.

Shaking her head in negation, Arai cautioned, "After what happened, that would not be wise. At least during the day we should keep a low profile; now that we've been involved in a "robbery" then the police will keep an eye on us. Especially since we are foreigners." She ahd been to Paris before; for her thirteenth birthday. Her red hair stood out, as did Pete's blonde hair. Namir could pass for a local, with her dark hair and eyes, but Perrin's golden eyes definitely drew attention. "I could go for some food, but unfortunately my wallet was stolen," she said in mock sadness.

"Wow, that hurt Perrin. I'm seriously going to cry myself to sleep at night. As for why I'm in Paris, I have people to look after. Wouldnt want Namir to get into too much trouble eh?" He said, grinning at the both of them. "It's comments like those that start fights Perrin. Hmmm... today's agenda... I say we go check something out. Its not everyday you find yourself in Paris, lets go out and enjoy it." He said, picking up his blue Jansport backpack and adjusting his hat. "I guess I'm up for whatever you guys want to do. So whats the plan?"
