Malico, the bartender sits in wait for the first customers of the night. He leans his armon the bar and his hand to his cheek. Niru, his pet akita, rests on his bed next to Malico's feet. Malico roles a quarter across his fingers in wait for whatever the night may bring him.

Awoken early for the night, Karin walked into the bar, her body too awake to let her tired mind get any more rest. This was early, way too early for her. Normaly she wouln'd be up 'till at least an hour after sunset, not minets. She let herself glide in, fake id in her poket. The only time she used the fake id was to gain entry to the bar. She didn't like alcohal at all, the smell making her more sick than when she saw blood. That was saying something. Acting on their own, her feet led her up to the bar and she sat down, almost slipping off the stool. Her head hit the counter with a hollow thud. A soft gorn left her throat as she turned it to the side, her eyes half open.

Malico cracks a smile and turns away from the counter to start fiddling with something. "I'm guessing you had a rough night huh? Hold on a sec." After a moment he turns back to her and sets down in front of her a tall glass of ice-cold milk, a spoon, and a package of choco mix. "Sorry I can't heat it all up for you but this way it's probubly better for your head. Oh and don't worry this one's on me, you really need it."

"Thank you," she said groggly as she just downed the milk. "I hate early nights. Why can't I work day times? At least daytimes I can see the people shooting at me." Karin was never much for either, bit they did have their ups and downs. Her fingers tugged at the ends of her shirt as she crossed her arms, placing them on the bar. A heavy sigh escaped her lips.

"I see, well I can make you an energy drink if that will help but it will cost you $3.50. I garantee it will wake you up." Malico says grabing her empty glass and cleaning it in the sink behind the bar. "I'm not having to memorable a night either, if you couldn't tell, it's a little dead in here this early in the night I can't wait till I can raise the tunes and fill this place with clubbers." He piles the now clean glass on a tower of others and turns back to the counter.

"Nah, thanks, but I don't need an energy drink, I just need to wake up. That's a hard thing at the moment." She shook her head, pulling out a note she tookdown earlier that day. "No, I was just up all day and now I can't sleep. And that's not good when you're meeting your first cliant at 11:05. I don't even know what this guy wants." She looked at her watch and found it was only 9:58. "Damn it all."

"Seems to me you woke up a little earlier than you needed to." Malico says with a small smirk. Niru gets up and walks around the bar to the girl and looks up at her with those big akita eyes. "Niru, be nice to the customers." Niru blankly looks back at Malico a moment then turns back to the girl, pants, and then sits down. "So you said you're meeting a client? You don't know who he is, and you're meeting him at a vampire bar? Seems a little strange to me."

"He chose the location, not me. I'm an Animator, and my boss has this thing about not turning down a customer, though this feels oddly familiar." She thought for a moment. The same thing happened to her mother a few years back. Her mother was asked to meet a cliant at a club run by vampires. She thought it was mearly a confused or stupid human. The surprise was the man who wanted to meet her worked at the club. He wanted an anciant to be raised. To raise one of that age, she needed help, and a human sacrifice. But she had nither. When she refused to do the deed, he had drained her of her blood. And now, here sat Karin, doing exactly what her mother had done eight years ago.

Khayman stepped into the bar. He looked around, seeing a couple in the courner enjoying themselves a bit too much for a public area. Looking around the rest of the bar he realized, that tonight it wasnt such a public place. He was used to this place having a nice buzz until around 4 am. Considering that the sun had just gone down only about an hour ago, the night was still young so there was a chance for things to pick up. Khayman walked over to the bar, to the left of the person already sitting.

Malico tips his head to the newcomer, but for the most part is distracted by the wild couple in the corner. He glares at the girl, who's giggling her head off, until she makes eye contact with Malico. Her body stops moving as Malico steals some of her energy, making her so weak that she falls asleep only moments after. Malico, now undistracted by the disgusting giggling turns his attention back to the real customers at the bar. "Damn overactive bitch needed to calm down." He mudders to himself as if it would make him feel better about hunting outside of a dream. "So new guy what'll you have? Sertainly something to drink, but might I suggest one of our new humburgers ((also known as human burger)) I've been told they're good to the point of being addictive."

Karin turned her head to the side to take in the new commer. Out of habbit, she tugged on the ends of her sleaves, keeping them from showing her scared arms. Her head fell on the counter again, her metality not keeping up with her phisiacal self. "Ow," she said flatly. She placed on hand on the bar. "Can I have another milk please? And tea. Strong tea. Please," she asked. Strong bitter tea always woke her up. The milk was for the after taste, which she would need to ridd herself of again later. At least for now, she would be awake enough to conduct bussiness without passing out on the spot.

The door opens and a figure enters, an air of forboding and doom about him. Then he takes off his jacket and throws it over his shoulder, walking to the coathangers and depositing the clothing item upon them sloppily. "Ah, party time! Hey, nice bar ya got here."
He approaches the bar and slams his fist on the counter. "Name's Caleb. Like a Jack....hold the blood." The latter was added as an afterthought as he noticed the kind of bar he had entered. "So, Red, the night gonna be lookin' up here? Lookin' for a fun night, hope ya' get plenty o' customers."
He tips his hat at Karin, "Olive." He nods to Khayman,"Tut." To the couple in the corner,"Date rape."
His normal routine of giving out nicknames is complete. He adjusts his sunglasses and grins widely.

Malico slowly turns his head to the side allowing his neck to snap. He hates guys like this, so he decides to ignore the guys drink order and instead give the Jack Daniels to Khayman with a glass of coke. "Here man, I'll just give you this to try." He turns his back away from the counter again and gets another glass of milk for Karin. "And for you." Though trying to ignore the new guy, Malico considers that money is money and makes one for the annoying guy. "Here's your jack, sunshine."
More people start entering the bar as it gets later. Finally Malico can crank up the music and get the dance floor ready for customers. There is only one problem, the waitress who was suppose to work didn't come in and Malico is desperate. He turns to Karin, "Hey, You think you can help me out, our waitress hasn't come in tonight and since this guy you were meeting hasn't come in why don't you work for me tonight. You'll recieve all the tips for the night plus the normal pay. What do you say? You'll still get time to dance and as a bonus I'll give you free dinner and whatever drinks you want for this night."

With her eyes slit in a glare meant for the new comer, though not facing him, she let a devilish smirk cross her lips. She drank the milk quickly and then nodded her head. "You have a good point." She tapped her fingers on the brim of the glass as if in deep thought. "Yeah, why not. Like you said, I have nothing better to do. That guy was my only client for the night, and this is better than traipsing around in the dirt anyway." She slapped herself hard across the face to wake herself further. Then her dark eyes grew, if possible, darker as she glared directly at the new guy. "I just hope you know some costumers my leave with more than they're asking for when I'm done."

Khayman sat down and took a sip from his drink. He then spun around on his stool to face the new comer that had just called him 'tut'. Khayman looked him up and down. "Thats quite the chain you've got there. Whats it made of?" He asked calmly.
