"Because without protection, not matter how strong you are, you'll get cut, get sick and die. These things are dangerous. I run a organization that protects people like you. It's called Haven….I know why you don't trust me and I understand…at least let me give you this if you don't wanna come with me." I handed her over a small pocket knife "It's silver, be careful it hurts them well but it also hurts people like me so I'm giving you a chance if you don't come with me."

can i join?? is there a age limit??

I looked up at him. He really was trying to protect me- and I just needed to trust him. "I'll come with you." I said quietly. "I'm being an idiot, I'll go with you."

(we'll continue if he wants to join later he can) I smiled a bit "I'm Tempest, what's your name?" I softly ask as I have her palm the pocket knife

(Okie, and I'll have to go soon, so I'm sorry if I disappear.)

I smiled back. "Mallory. Nice to meet you." I say softly taking the knife.

(it's okay.) "It's nice to meet you as well." I say as I look around then motion for you to follow now "there's an entrance not far from here." I say as I start down the less crowded side of town.

I nod slowly. "Sweet- you said it was called Haven?" I asked softly trying to keep up with him.

"Yeah I know we're real creative with the name." I joke a bit as we walked, sonn I had stopped by a establishment labeled as 'Neil's Tavern' I smiled a bit as I opened the door for Mal

I laughed and walked in the tavern. It felt cozy, yet run down. "This it?" I asked softly, not sounding too unimpressed.

"It's the gateway." I respond as I speak with the bartender "Neil pal it's been too long."

"Daniels my lad it has, stopping by for a drink or the shortcut?"

"Neil you know I'm still too young."

"Well lad that didn't stop ya from o-"

"Shortcut please!" I asked cutting him off

"And who's the lass?" Neil leaned over the counter a bit to get a better look. He had a bush-like ink black beard, his skin the same color as the creatures I had fought off. He wore a vest suit and dark slacks. His eyes looked at her's, a lamp-like glow emitting from them.

I smiled politely and stuck a hand out. "Nice to meet you sir, I'm Mallory." I greeted with a sweet tone:

"A new one I see. Well you're welcome to stop by here anytime you want lass, this isn't just a tavern." he shook her hand firmly and gave a glance at the door they just had entered from "Alright it's ready, you two be safe." He then started to clean the bartop with an old rag.

(okay who are you gonna use Jake?)

(i was thinking of my Jake… it's my O.C. here ill put the link)
