Try This Again ( Gabriel )

[Gabriel Seran]

"Cheater...."

A firm grin chiseled into his features as he stretched the arm he'd once tied up, knocking away the inflamed tee that was hinging narrowly by its rags around his arm.

"Couldn't go letting you kick my ass, done that once before."

A cocky grin and a smile only visible sense that his facade of cool and controlled fighter was merely a mask. Eyes still hastily observing Kevala though now it'd seem as though she'd learn that taking to the offense around him was quite the endangering factor.

"Well then big boy....come on....Show me whatcha got."

"Alright then, how do you say it? 'Lets play'"

With a hulking charge Gabriel'd waste no time jumping back into the fray his right shoulder lowered aimed at her jaw line to increase upon the last moments of damage he preceded to cripple upon. With the bulky charge Gabriel would jut and thrust all eight into the strike coming up with both the shoulder and knee towards the woman before swinging about with his left palm semi-sealed in a fist to hit her in the neck.

Kevala felt that energy from him increase.....he really did love running her into the fucking ground....But she was not the way she used to be.....A little twitch of her fingers as she spotted him move, unsure what the hell he was going to do so she did the only thing she could think of to buy her more time...She shifted her feet and spun out of the way, barely missed by the attack and feeling the force of it blow past her.

Her arm coming out to slam into the back of his head as he moved past her, her knee then raising to slam into the lower part of his spine before she jumped back and away from him.

Eyes observing him and the area around them. The adrenaline rushing through her body making her all that more excited about this. It was certain that nobody else in this blasted place could ever compare to Gabriel.....hence one of the reasons she called him....

Now if she could just keep from getting knocked out, she could tell him the second when they were done...heh

[Gabriel Seran]

A grin noting her dodge. Though of course she was wise enough to stick around and dish out the last few blows before getting out of their swiftly. For one the strike to his gut and the back of his head would cause both his feet to get ahead of him as well as his head. This force alone would send him airborne yet centralized to the radius of where Kevala's knee was which happened to be right on her.

Kicking weight from his toes so that the sole force was projected over her kneecap still resulting in her blow crunching at his ribs but sending his body over her grip and into a tuck and roll scenario.

Still hovering just mid air Gabriel's torso beneath his hips at this point flipping over Gabriel would lash out with his right hand focusing all his Qi into that one hand doubling the heat and would smach her in the face before rolling out onto the dirt low to the ground and ready.

[Ceraphine Davis]

The hit she took would send her ass to the ground and sending back....Her tongue brushing over her lips as she felt the blood flowing from her mouth and nose......Her head laying back against the ground as she growled softly...

Her clouded eyes looking up at the sky, her hands resting flat against the grounds......

"You really fucking suck you know that?"

A pained little laugh escaping her as she drew in a deep breath and then placed her strength into pushing herself up into a sitting position....Her knees drawing upward as she shook off the blow...though she was weak as shit....she would eventually work her way back up to her feet, hand coming up so that she could wipe the blood away from her face......

"Continue? Or find out the other reason I called you here?"

Another solid hit and her ass would be down, she knew that, he had his Qi....she didn't....When he used it, there was no match after a certain point....and this was it......

But she was not going to say I quit....She just couldnt.....and she hoped he never really expected her to...

[Gabriel Seran]

A single nod in acknowledgment as he let his guard down and with that his Qi flow. A face resembling something of a tired reserved showed through as he grinned silently.

"I thought I was here to train...?"

Gabriel would question with a subtle smile before growing slightly curious closing the gap between them all the while feeling the cool sweat on his frame.

"Do tell?"

ooc: sucky reply but yea

[Ceraphine Davis]

"Am I ever that simple?"

She drew in a deep breath as she bent over and placed her hands on her knees, her eyes casting a little teasing look up to him as she smiled, despite the blood and pain she was in....A thin layer of sweat on her body as she tried to catch her breath....

"Nathaniel is here.....Wants to see you....He knows about Zeke....everything.....I have an address for him if you want it, as well as his number....."

She looked down at the mention of the address.....it would be a lie to say she didnt hate the damn place, it was after all where he found all his little whores....BUT she really couldnt say much...It was just the female in her flaring up....but yeah...Kev was never that easy or uncomplicated.........

[Gabriel Seran]

"Nathaniel is here.....Wants to see you....He knows about Zeke....everything.....I have an address for him if you want it, as well as his number....."

Hmm curious, internally Gabriel's mentality would go for a loop projecting all sorts of thought considering last they spoke they weren't exactly on good terms despite the all too "close" conversation he'd had with Kevala but a day before.

On the outside though Gabriel remained at neutral, frozen in place contemplating the notice she'd just spoken. The pieces forming slowly like a dog quickly realizing that barking meant he'd get a good taze. Nathaniel wants to see me.... After the aforementioned of Zeke.

"Does he have a gun on him?"

Gabriel would joke. Though the presence of a gun didn't bother him rather Nathaniel with any sort of weapon made him impeccably difficult. As though he generated some sort of force through it.

"Alright, give it here.."

A hand would extend for the note. He would face his brother when the time best suited, perhaps now after his blood was fiery. Perhaps that would call for the best. But he'd wait till it was cool. His mind focused.

[Ceraphine Davis]

Kev reached behind her, the hidden pocket on the inside seam of her pants being accessed as she pulled out a business card for the Emerald Skies Night Club......

Handing it over she shrugged....A little shake of her head as she felt a bit of pain wash through her....Yep, she loved that.....

"He was a bit off about meeting you. I could tell in his eyes. The only threat he made was if any harm was to befall Zeke in your presence.....He said he would....kill you...."

She growled out the last two words almost, very unhappy with the situation she had found herself in. She was the one to defend Gabriel with her life, and yet she was in love with Nathaniel, and yeahhhhh...big mess.......

Either way she hoped it would never come to that.....

"I told him that would not happen.....I trust you Gabriel....."

She knew he had a tendency to lose it, just like Nathan......they were both unstable so one could never know.....But somewhere inside she knew she was right about Gabriel.....

[Gabriel Seran]

Emerald Skies. Clever, Gabriel thought to himself perversely as the man he called brother had evidently been on his tail longer than to be expected. There would once again be quite the reunion in turn to be settled.

"He was a bit off about meeting you. I could tell in his eyes. The only threat he made was if any harm was to befall Zeke in your presence.....He said he would....kill you...."

Gabriel would ignore her growl, deep within his own thoughts this was more about blood than relationships and as selfish as he felt at this moment it wasn't about Kevala. It was about the brothers' Seran. Their offspring coming about and how they'd grow, along with old grudges to be finally sought out. Even if there was blood to be spread, the seemed to be quite characteristic of their breed.

"I told him that would not happen.....I trust you Gabriel....."

"hmm" A low grunt as he shuffled the card into a pocket turning away to his car popping open the door and dropping the raggedy torn shirt at the base of the passenger seat. "Thank you for the concern but its entirely unneeded. I will handle my brother."

[Ceraphine Davis]

She stood there, and she listened, and somewhere inside just ..... snapped......Shaking her head she licked away a bit of blood from her lips and took a step forward. She knew he could care less about anything she said, and really she didn't care.

It was nothing new. He was an island, let him be, she couldn't get to him no matter how much she did for him, no matter how much she loved him.....So yeah, she would say what she had to say and be done with it......

"You know what? I dont care what you two do to each other. What I do care about is Zeke, and like it or not, he is caught in the middle of this whole mess. You two like to think it is about you and all your fucking problems.......Two Seran men, supposed to be soooo fucking smart and sooooo wise. So calculating, always thinking ahead........"

She laughed a bit and crossed her arms over her chest.....

"But in all this brothers crap, did it ever occur to you that there is a little boy caught in the middle? He loves you Gabriel, and Nathaniel is his Father.....He needs you both...Yet you two are so willing to handle each other if needed......

I understand you two not giving a shit about me.....Nothing new.....Something I have learned to accept.....But Zeke.....he is your blood..and he is a little boy who wont understand."

Finally she threw up her hands in resignation, no point in talking to a wall, it just stared back at you...Only difference is this one would make you feel stupid or foolish with just a single look or a handful of words......

"I honestly was gonna stay out of it.....Never planned on getting between you two...I love you both and I will not be forced to choose.....Does not mean I have to like the idea of him hurting you, or you him......You know, believe it or not, I have a general idea of what it is that stands between you....what anger and hurt is there on both parts.....But you know what? Grow up....."

Gods even after all these years, he still could hurt her with just the smallest actions or words......Yet this time, she let it out with words, but the rest of her stayed there, calm......She could cry later, at home, away from people who would use it against her.....Who would find her weak......

[Gabriel Seran]

She spouted angrily, like the little sister and little lover would defiant to see that justice was brought about but not at either of them rather they join union against the greater threats of this world. Were she born under any other lineage she'd make a brilliant Seran if only not constricted to her folly emotions which tilted every which way the wind commanded.

Gabriel's stare turned down to her back at his car s he slipped the shirt on heavy as the layer of sweat vaporized into air catching the hem of the shirt a second before it fell upon his shoulders. Black was the native color of his choosing, black for it symbolized a great many things. Those of which finely associated with the dark. For Gabriel he was the Dark Prince, His brother the true heir if his consummation not been made out of wedlock. Gabriel would have perhaps given him the throne had he stayed lingered to aid his brother when their parents died. But instead Gabriel had been left, left to grow up all too soon.

"Grow Up."

His eyes would look up, attention elsewhere hoping Kevala would follow them to the sky behind her and a second later his fist would bury into her gut deeper than any punch he'd thrust. The force would be with everything harsh and cold.

"I need you to stay out of my way, stay out of Nathan's way, what'll happen tonight is decided by us alone, keep Zeke safe. If you really care about us, us foolish Seran's do this..."

Gabriel would reach back grabbing his jacket coat and pull it over his torso before getting in the car and leaving her there. KEvala would be fine if hit, just out of it for a short while long enough for him to get away. Away to think.
