Private Finished Stalking the Night

If this creature were a human, they would have been dead by now, letting Red come so close. It would have been so easy to grab a human by the face and swing them from side to side, slamming them against the walls until she could feel the vertebra crack and snap. She didn't respond to the prodding with words. Rather, she snapped her arm up in an attempt to grab the mask from underneath, the tendrils around said arm spreading out and extending faster in order to clamp around the object that might have been the only thing Red could tangibly touch. The tendrils that were already around the figure would likewise attempt to entrap it. Successful or not in her attempt to catch the figure, Red started to fall into a fit of deranged laughter as she felt a rush she had been missing for so long. She had been clean for too long and she got a bit too excited for even a chance of trading pain.

Marian noticed the movement and immediately retreated into the shadows, thankful that she was on guard and slipping from the creature's grasp before she caught a hold of her mask. Or more accurately, her face. She had been warned to be careful with it, and as much as possible, never let it be touched. If she were any slower, the creature would have had her in its tendrils by now without escape. She concealed herself in the dark, and yet, she still felt surrounded as the figure laughed, its voice echoing in the dark alley. She could sense its tendrils surrounding her, but Marian, ever so stubborn refused to leave the area. It was a close call, and Marian really should leave now considering how the figure seems to know what to grab. But she hadn't been caught yet, which gave Marian the reason to stay longer. With a rush of confidence she spoke from the shadows. "That all you plan to do? Grab a floating mask?"

Red's laughter died down, but her face was a broken smile, jagged and, with the cracks around her mouth, toothy. "Oh no, that's just the first step, my curious butterfly. I intend to break it and hang it above my bed." Red was hunched, her body swaying where her head looked towards as it scanned the shadows for any sign of the mask. "This is no fun if none of us get hurt." A dark chuckle escaped her. "So come to me. Let us hurt each other. Hiding will only make this worse for both of us." Red's tendrils wrapped around her again and she began dashing to one corner to another possible hiding place, wanting to find the mask, the urge edging closer to desperation.

Marian watched her target, looking towards her direction with an eerie smile as she counts to what she was planning to do. Marian was silent, imagining her predicament if she would be caught. 'Be careful with your mask,' she thought in her brother's voice. She didn't really pay attention, but she just knew it was bad for the mask to break. And the thought of whatever bad that was made her more curious. She saw the figure dash to her direction, and Marian darted sideways in response, though still not leaving the area. "But it's no fun if you catch me this soon either, wouldn't it?" Marian taunted. The figure was already clear in its intentions: she wanted to hurt her. Now Marian, liked the idea of getting in trouble, but she didn't like actually getting hurt. "How about a game of tag first?"

Playful little... Red hated it when her targets get away, and it was infuriating for her to know that this one could just slip away to the shadows with no problem. For a moment, she stood still, looking where she heard the voice come from, taunting her. "Tag? Well, you better start running." Her tendrils spread away from her, responding to her want to feel the shadows for the hidden prey. A breeze picked up a plastic bag and in animalistic response, Red swiped her arm around, thinking it was the shadow creature. She swore in her native language and continued her search, eyes straining for any telltale sign of the floating mask.

Marian watched the figure that stood still after her offer to play. Did she or did she want to play along with Marian's game? She was looking in her direction though, so Marian assumed she was considering. it. Marian noticed the tendrils move first, reaching for the shadows before the figure finally spoke. The game had already started. Marian's laugh echoed in the alley as the figure tore through a plastic bag. Oh boy, this was going to be a fun game. Marian didn't even feel the need to leave the area just yet. "Can you even find me here," she taunted, sounding as if she was speaking from behind the figure. "Or should I widen the field a little bit?"

"Why don't you show yourself? This isn't hide and seek," she said in a sickly sweet voice that was just dripping with venom. "And make the field as wide as you need it. We'll see who can run faster." She disliked playing games that she didn't have the advantage on, but beggars couldn't be choosers in this scenario. And all this foreplay was only getting her agitated. She could feel unbound hatred bubbling back to the surface. Oh if it didn't have a body she'd have to settle for breaking that mask and mount it over her bed. Or maybe she'd wear it around as a trophy. No one would know she killed for it, right?

"It's a game of shadows. Being in the dark is all part of the game," Marian laughed. Maybe she was cheating -- she did say 'tag', not hide and seek, but considering she was half a shadow, she liked to think she had all the right to stay within the darkness. Besides, she didn't want to be identified just yet with a face she uses on the daily. And by the way this figure was speaking to her right now though, there was no way she was going to let herself get caught. A part of her felt like she would probably lose a limb if she gets caught right now. From the shadow near the edge of the alley, her mask emerged. "Shadows are hard to catch, you know. But I'll go easy on you so try and catch me," she said before slinking out of the alley into the neon-lit streets.

The red on her bandages up to that point remain minimal, but it'd slowly get bloodier by the second as she set her eyes on the mask once more. It wasn't for her to notice however as she feeling numbed itself once a dose of adrenaline coursed through her veins. The game was on. The prey was slinking away, thinking itself safe while it taunted. Red wasn't going to let it off easy once she got the mask in her grasp. She'd just have to play it smart. A monumental task considering the mask probably knew the ins and outs of this stretch of sidewalk, but that wasn't on Red's mind. She gave chase, moving as a black glob of eldritch-esque mass, tearing down the street, following the creature.

The game was on. Marian was confident she could easily lose the figure in the red coat. She could easily out run her. This was a simple game for her -- she'd done it to more than a few people. She'd give them a chase, and later would reveal herself before vanishing into the night. It was a simple game. The figure gave chase, revealing the tendrils that tried to reach her in the dark. Under the neon lights, it looked more menacing. If Marian was alright in the mind, this should have been a sign she should just skip the theatrics and go straight to vanishing into the night. But Marian's lack of sense of safety said otherwise: this was a fun new playmate and the threat of being chased by what looked like a horror movie monster was just entertaining. Marian zipped through the street, checking every so often if they were still within each other's sights. "Come and get me," she sang, still taunting the figure who already looked pretty agitated without Marian speaking.
