All I want is a new outfit. "M" (Joelle)

[Anonymous]

Nykui had the day off from work. She normally didn't take days off, since she enjoyed her job so well. Every now and then though there was other things that she wanted to do so she'd tell the owner and he'd let her go for the day. Today she was wanting to buy some new outfits. There really wasn't anything wrong with the clothes she already had, but she was getting bored with a lot of them and felt the need for a change. Of course Nykui's idea of clothes for the most part would be what a lot of people would consider underwear. She was a nymph however and a prostitute at that, so being modest wasn't in her dictionary.

There was one clothes shop in particular that she loved going to and the owner always gave her the best deals. Not that she was in want for money. One of the pluses of being so old you have a long time to save money so you don't want for anything ever again. The day was beautiful as she walked to the shop called, Making Ends Meet. There was a threat of a storm on the wind, but nothing she was worried about. As she walked into the store she took in the smell of the dyes and cloth, it was a smell she enjoyed. She didn't see the owner anywhere, so she went about looking for a few outfits to buy. Immediately she found an adorable red dress. It was off shoulders with flared sleeves, corseted middle tied with black ribbons, and the skirt part was short and slit all the way up to the hip. It was probably meant to be a sexy night outfit, but she would wear it as a every day outfit.

She looked and found six more outfits she was convinced she could not live without. Heading up to the counter to pay she realized that she still hadn't seen the owner yet. That was very unlike him, normally he was following her around telling her what he thought would look best on her. "Hello? Garon? Anybody here?" She asked as she sat her stuff down on the counter. A part of her was getting worried that something was going on. She stood there for a moment thinking he might come out from the back, but he never did. So she decided to go look for him. The door to the back room was next to the counter so she decided to go through it. That was a bad idea.

In the back room she found Garon, but she also found the group of three people that was holding him down. "Dammit, she found us!" One of the men said, one with dirty blond hair. "Shut it Earl. Look at her she isn't going to be a problem. She might be fun in fact. We can finish robbing the place after we have some fun. Get her." A man with black hair said as his eyes roamed up and down Nykui's body.

Nykui made a run for it. She planned to get back out on the street and yell for help. She almost made it to the door but the dirty blond man caught up to her and grabbed her from behind. The other man that was after her, a bald man, stood in front of her to make sure she wouldn't get away. That was a bad move on his part. She glanced at him and used her ability that stunned people with her beauty. The bald man was left helpless to stand there and stare at her. At least that was one taken care of for a few minutes. "HELP!! SOMEONE HELP ME!" She yelled at the top of her lungs as she struggled against the blond man.

Darius normally wouldn't have dared to go near a clothing shop. He was a knight, and a nobleman at that. He had plenty of clothes. But there were other shops around, and at the moment he was looking for this morning's breakfast and an apple for his horse. When he heard Nykui scream, Darius galloped toward the sound, brandishing his sword.

"Stop, in the name of the law!" he yelled. He was retired, but they didn't need to know that. He halted his horse directly in front of the blond man who was holding Nykui. The message in his eyes was clear: Let her go, or possibly lose your head.

[Anonymous]

Relief washed over Nykui's face as a man, most certainly a knight from the looks of him, came riding up ordering the man to let her go. "Thank the goddess you're here sir. There are..." She started saying, but the blond man put his hand over her mouth.

"Shut it, you whore. Higen, snap out of it!" He yelled at his partner, then he turned to the knight. "If you want so badly, come and get her." At that he backed into the store, dragging Nykui with him.

Nykui gave the knight a very pleading look with her eyes, afraid what would happen to her if this noble man didn't come in after them. Of course she was also worried for him since he did not realize that there was another man inside the store. She struggled against the man to avail and even tried to bite him once. Nothing worked, she was just too weak and she couldn't look him in the eyes to be able to stun him like the other man. "Hey boss! We've got trouble. Some idiot knight knows we're here."

The boss did not look happy. "Great. Things are not turning out how it was suppose to. Throw that bitch over there and get ready." He pulled a sword from it's scabbard and ran out to the front of the store. The other man threw Nykui onto the store keep who was tied up and then ran out pulling out his sword.

"Let her go,or I will behead you both!" he fumed. Even so, he was pretty confident that he could defeat them in a fight. He was older, by the looks of things, than both of them, and that probably meant he'd had more training.
As he brandished his sword, but while the men weren't looking, Darius looked at the girl sympathetically and wondered where she came from. She was quite attractive, but weak, and someone as defenseless as she seemed should not be alone out here.

[Anonymous]

"Oh yeah. I think you a bit too slow for us old man. Let's see you try and behead us!" The leader said confidently. The blond haired man didn't look so sure of himself, it was a knight they were facing after all. The man that had been stunned had finally snapped back to reality, but in seeing what they were up against did the wise thing and ran off down the street as fast as he could. The leader of this badly formed gang rushed at the knight, yelling with his sword up. "DIE YOU BASTARD!" The blond haired man, less confidently, ran behind him to rush the older man.

(feel free to do what ever you want to these two. they deserve it. XD)

"No, you will die first!" Darius proclaimed as he galloped toward the man. He pointed his sword so that it would go straight for the man's throat when the horse stopped, and drove it in as hard as he could. He was not sure if the man would die, but at the very least, his condition would be critical.

"How do you like that?" he smirked at the man's comrade. "Get out of here or I shall do the same to you. And if you dare come back, you'll have me to deal with."

(OOC: sorry for the short posts, I write romance better.)

The injured man fell to the ground with a gasp. He lay there twitching for a moment before his body laid still. If he wasn't dead yet, he would be very soon. Not that him dying was a bad thing, the world would be a little better without scum like him around. The blond man stared in horror as his boss fell by the knight's sword. He dropped his sword and took the man's advice and ran like a little girl. Like hell was he going to get killed over some damn money in a clothes store.

Nykui heard the commotion and then silence. She turned to the store owner and said, "I think they're gone." She then ran out of the store and into the street. There she saw what had happened. The boss lay in a puddle of his own blood and the others were gone. All that was left was the knight on his horse. She rushed up to him and his horse. "Oh thank you so much sir. I don't know what I would've done if you hadn't heard me. May I have your name sir knight?"

[Anonymous]

"My name is Sir Darius Scollard," he said, tipping his helmet. "What is your name, and are you all right?" He regarded the girl with gentle eyes, like a grandfather. "Is there anything else that you need? Did they hurt you?" He would have expected to find the girl unable to walk from trembling or crumpled to the ground in a faint. He went back inside the store to untie the shopkeeper while still questioning the girl. "Where do you live? Would you like me to take you home?"

[Anonymous]

Nykui smiled sweet at the older gentleman. "It's a pleasure to meet you Sir Darius. My name is Nykui Skadon. I'm fine now, thank you. They didn't hurt me, but I'm sure they were planning to do something perverted to me." She answered following him into the shop. She watched as he untied the shop keep. "Are you alright Garon?" She asked the owner.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Thanks for all the help. What ever you were planning on buying today Nykui, you can just have it. You deserve it. If there is anything I can do for you Sir Darius, just let me know." He answered, going behind his counter to sit down.

"Thank you Garon." She said with a smile. Of course she was going to leave something for him, he was a hard worker and she had picked out quite a bit to buy today. "I work at the Peaches 'n Cream Brothel and I'd be very happy to escort back there. Perhaps I can find a way to pay you back while we are there." She said to Darius. "I give some of the best massages."

[Anonymous]

He smiled. "Massage, hmm? Don't mind if I do." It had been a long time since he'd been with a woman as attractive as Nykui. In fact, it had been a long time since he had been with a woman at all.

"It's not as easy as it looks, killing people. He was quite large. I could really use a massage after that workout, Nykui."

Her name was like velvet on his tongue. Nykui. He wondered where it came from.
"And don't worry, I won't hurt you," he added as an afterthought. He might have been an older man, but that didn't mean he was so old that he no longer had...well..needs.

"Would you like to ride on the horse with me?" he asked. "It might keep idiots like those from trying to attack you."

[Anonymous]

Hm...So he was interested in payment of sorts. That was fine with her she liked doing her job and all that entailed. "I would be most happy to give you a massage....or anything else you'd like for that matter. Just let me grab my clothes." She quickly got her new outfits off the counter and secretly left a bit of money behind. Then she went back to Darius.

"Oh I know he was a big man. I could have never taken him. Of course the most I can do anyways is stun people with a glance. That only works for so long and doesn't work if I can look the person in the eye. Don't you worry you're in good hands. I'll get all the kinks out of you I can find." She said. "I'd love to ride with you and I'd never think that you'd hurt me. Trust me, when you've been around as long as I have to learn who to trust and who not too."

[Anonymous]

He grinned at her. "So you're not a new girl at the brothel, hmm? That is... you're experienced? Well, well." This suited him even better, although he wasn't the type to take advantage of a woman he'd just met. Then again, she had offered.

Darius climbed aboard his horse and then told her what to do. "Get behind me, and put your arms around my torso. Then you won't fall off. I'll put your new clothes in my saddlebag. I would suggest this one, when we return," he said, a smile going all the way to his eyes as he saw the first outfit she had picked out.  Not only would she please him, but he wanted to please her also.

[Anonymous]

Nykui climbed up behind him as he requested and put her arms around him. "Oh darling, I'm more experienced than you could ever know." She stated with a seductive tone. Most people didn't realize her other little ability until they came to the brothel and experienced it for themselves. Of course she never changed her gender in front of anyone. She did that one time and the person was just a little too weirded out that the woman in front of them suddenly became a man. She looked at the outfit he wanted her to wear when the got to the brothel. "Not a problem. That one I liked the most of the outfits I picked out."

[Anonymous]

"I hope I'm not too inexperienced for you," he said sincerely, wanting her even more when he heard her seductive words. "Knighthood does not give one much time to be with a woman." He felt her arms around his neck and his heart warmed with something he hadn't felt in a long time.  Not love, but something close to it. It was the way he always felt when he knew he had protected someone from something. As if he never wanted to let them leave, because they made him feel that his strength was not yet gone and he was not as old as he looked. He felt free and light.

"I haven't been near the brothel in awhile and don't know where it is. How far is it from that store where you were?"

[Anonymous]

"You'll do fine darling. Don't you worry your sweet little head a bit." She said reassuringly. After living for as many years as she had, she'd had many lovers. More than she cared to count. Out of all those lovers, men and women both, she'd experienced all sorts of experience levels. Plus she'd been the first for a lot of those people. "I hope you don't mind though. I tend to be a bit aggressive." She informed him and to prove her point she ran a hand down his chest to between his legs.

"The brothel is straight down this street. You can't miss it." She answered him.

[Anonymous]

"Oh...Nykui..." She'd proved her point, all right. She'd proved it so well that he wasn't sure he could take her home right now. He fought to control the feelings rising within him, but he was breathing heavily for a few moments until he got control of himself.

"I don't mind," he said, a lascivious grin on his face. "I can be quite aggressive myself. I am a rogue knight, after all."

He kept his horse moving in the direction of the brothel. When at last they'd arrived, he helped her off the horse and kissed her hotly, nibbling on her ear in the process.

[Anonymous]

Nykui grinned mischieviously, though he couldn't see it. She loved making people a little crazy with pleasure. Something about it made her feel powerful when she otherwise feels pretty weak. The fact she was very good at it didn't help anything either. She took her hand away, didn't want to paralyze the poor man before they got to the brothel. "Good. I like a man who knows how to take control." She purred in his ear.

They got to the brothel in a short time and Darius helped her off the horse. She was not expecting to be kissed so passionately so soon. "Easy there tiger. We haven't even gotten to my room yet. Come let me lead the way." She said with a giggle. She escorted him into the brothel. A few of her co-workers were there and waved as she came in. One yelled at her about supposedly having the day off. She replied by saying that she was planning on having fun, not doing work. Her room was just down the hall, she led him there and opened the door for him. "Here we are. It's not much, but it's not bad either." Her room was very clean and beautiful with red lace curtains and matching bed spread. "Make yourself at home."

[Anonymous]

"How about a warm bath first?" he suggested. "There's no end to the fun we could have in there, and besides, I don't want to get dirt on your bed." Sweat was one thing. It was common when one made love to sweat. But dirt? No. He couldn't imagine that Nykui would want to sleep in a bed that was dirty. He took off his helmet and then started to remove his armor, winking at her lustfully.

[Anonymous]

"A warm bath sounds wonderful. Let me go get it running." Nykui said as she went into the adjacent room. The sound of water could be heard running. "There. It shouldn't be long till the tub fills. It's a nice big tub, room to move around in if you know what I mean." She said winking at him. She watched as he removed his armor. Even if he was an older man she could tell that he was still in very good shape. "So, Sir Darius. May I just call you Darius? How did you get to become a rogue knight?" She asked as she stripped off her outfit. Her's was all one piece and she didn't wear anything under it. She hoped her body was too his approval. She wasn't as busty and curvy as some women, but her feminine physique wasn't bad. Her masculine form didn't look much different, a little more square than curved and with obvious other parts.

[Anonymous]

"Of course, call me Darius. My friends all do. As for the knight, my father was one, and his father before him. But the rogue...that part comes naturally," he said with a chuckle, nibbling at her ear again before leading her into the bath. "Did you know you're beautiful?" he asked. His eyes showed that he meant it. He had never seen another woman like her, flat-chested, but so feminine as well. He swooped her up into his arms and twirled her around before climbing into the tub.
