Puddles of stagnant water littered the alley, with mutated dogs running across the area, no longer rapping as they usually do, crying and swearing to everything, before drooling over the rotten trash, fighting for each morsel for survival. Long gone were the tiny vestige of sanity, replaced were the ferocity of ravid beasts. One in particular, smelling something different, hobbled to the shadows, where it thought it could get its next meal, only to be kicked unexpectedly, drawing a parabola before it's shattered corpse got mangled by the others for food. Rubbing his feet in disgust, he muttered "Filthy little things, why can't we just eradicate the species as a whole." His blue tweed jacket glowed in the dark, showcasing its particularity, as the being calmly walked to an inconspicuous wall, tapping in no particular manner.
Up... down...left, right, center... yes, now just to say the phrase... Satisfied, the walls quickly split open, bricks falling back like dominoes, revealing a dark corridor, brazers lighting the way. The being, after readjusting his cufflinks, walked through the hallway, walls closing in, as if nothing had ever occurred.
After walking what seemed to be an eternity, bright light pierced through. Blinking, it seemed that it had stepped into an atrium. A receptionist, pale in vigour, welcomed him. "Welcome esteemed sir, Madame will meet with you soon. Please, enjoy some of our finest fruits. They were recently purchased from the Darkwyre galaxy: the freshest fruits made from the freshest corpse." The pale imitation to conjure joy failed miserably, creating a sense of the uncanny valley. "Oh please, just stop it." A hand is seen waving to the receptionist, "Your pale imitation just kocks us. Stop this... this silly act, and quickly guide me to her. I have some... 'business' with her." Curling his mouth in disgust, he quickly adjusts his clothes, before setting of into the room it pointed to.
After walking for minutes, he reached the dark, mahogany door, and stood still. After ensuring that no noise was leaking from the room, he knocked on the door. "Come in. I'm done with my business." Just as he opened the door, a spritely looking dwarf-goblin hybrid hurriedly pushes through the door, sweating profusely.
Shaking his head again in disgust, henpinches his nose before stepping into the parlour.
Flowers of many kinds hung from the ceiling, whose heigh knew no bound. Stars, bright and dim, glittered from the sky, each adding their own flare to the room. Among the myriad furnitures that laid around the room, clothes of all kind laid sporadically everywhere, evidence of the many deeds the owner had done.
But the highlight of the room was on a large, crystalline bed. Carved from the most rare Twilight Monsoon Jade, it's dark colours held shimmering stars, floating within, frozen within time. Yet it paled in comparison to the woman laid on it.
Her dark, purple hair flowed down her white, ebony shoulders, sweat adding a tantalising feeling to it. Thick breasts, tightly held together by scant silk clothes, accentuated her saintly figure. Her long, jade - like calfs moved slowly, arousing the feeling of longing in him. Her thin fingers held a small pipe, from where a small cigar is placed within.
Yet nothing compared to her face. As if carved from the hands of the Gods, it showcased her as a seductress, captivating anyone who looked at her. Her bright red and blue eyes, shimmering in the background, looked at everything in a languid manner, as if she wasbthe ruler of the world. Her lips, bright red in colour, beckoned him closer to her, urging him to bite it, savour it, make it his. No longer able to keep himself calm, he started lumbering towards her, fixated into making her his.
Just as he was getting closer, a low, sultry voice called out "My~my, what do we have here. If it isn't my dear Bluey, are you here to conquer me? Come on, come on. I'm here... just step closer... you are nearly here." Coughing to snap himself out of the stupor, he gulped slightly, before asking "Have you got the usual? I don't have time to chit - chat, master has decided to bring forward the plan. Ever since that blasted signal from God knows where, my life has become... hard, to say the least. Anyway, the pay.ent shall be sent to the secret account."
Chuckling with hand in lips, arousing him even more, she teased him "What about your little toy? I heard that he seemed to have somewhat... changed." Sighling loudly, he held his hands in the air, "Haah... Yesterday, while... 'watching', yes, watching over him, a loud scream was heard, shattered my ears nearly. Just as I about to head over there, a palpitating feeling settled over my heart, as if saying I will die of I go there. Had to... retreat strategically, so to say. Before finding out the source of tbe feeling, I have stopped any further monitoring for now. Anyway, I must go now, time is ticking." Picking up his sleeves, before she could see anything, he walked quickly.
Knowing what happened, she chuckled again. Remembering something, she quickly reminded him "Oh, and by the way, before I forget, the other 'products' are nearly ready, when will you pick them up?" Without even stopping, he showed his index finger only, and got out quickly.
As he steeped out from the alley, a tall, slim shadow is seen flickering from the building next to it, before flickering out of existence.
