Allen was still a bit irritated.

He didn't like anyone trying to be forced into something against their will, especially something important as marriage. True, Nasuko hadn't been forced to go with the men or anything but it was just the thought of any of her family more or less giving her away to some son of a friend who they had no idea would turn out. Allen just didn't have the stomach for it, everyone should be free to choose their life how they wanted. Not how anyone else thought would be best, not even if they were your parents.

He was about to say something, then Nasuko did her little stunt. Which earned a small smile from him, she never did it intentionally, but she was, and always had been good at lifting or changing the mood.

"Yeah, me neither." Allen said firmly. "But from what they said, it seems like they knew your parents so maybe your brother might know more about them." Truthly, he couldn't stand Nasuko's brother for the most part. He thought of him of an asshole, but he always suspected he did in fact care for his little sister. It wouldn't be something anyone could just tell, but he was an older brother as well and could pick it up.

..Thankfully Milla wasn't at the age were he really had to worry.

Nasuko blinked twice from confusion and watched, dazed, as the men walked away into the sunset. An ocean draft whispered through her silvery locks and made her pale body tremble from the chill of the evening that was approaching. She wrapped her arms around her frail frame and sighed.

"Zut." Coughed the Mutt in another tongue. Looking to Allen, Nasuko asked; "Who ever those rather lame creatures were, I have not a clue. I do know that I would never dream of marriage." Truthfully the idea had never really crossed the girls mind. Toying with men or playing hard-to-get was a different concept entirely from 'marriage'. That meant she had to 'care'. Oi.

"Hopefully they do not return." She began then huffed, throwing a balled fist to the sky like some cartoon figure. "I will not allow it!"

The 'little beast' comment is what caused the other full-vampire to begin to lose their temper. He stepped forward a bit, fist clinched.

"Listen you little-"

"Quite." Nihon didn't even once raise his voice but apparently that was just enough for his son. "She could have phrased that better, but like I said it was her choice.." He gaze lingered to Nasuko and Allen for a second.

Besides, it seems she already has someone she's close too.

"I'll be off then, but if there is ever a change of heart you can still find us in the mansion north from here. Come." He simply turned his back and began walking away while his son gave Allen a sour look, which didn't bother the half-breed at all.

Once they were some distance away, Allen released a breath he hadn't realized he had been holding. "Just what the heck was that about?" It didn't seem like something Nasuko would be interested in so obviously it must have been another family member. He was glad they had just left, if they forced her then he would have fought despite being outnumbered. Allen doubted even in his ability to beat that many at once, but Nasuko would probably at least be able to get away.

At this strange notion Nasuko's eyes shot wide open with a new found emotion; a mixture between Shock and Fright. The only thing racing through her suddenly absent mind was of Raziel. His doing. It had to be. Who one earth would set up an arranged marriage...For Nasuko?!

When reality drifted back to her, the Mutt shifted her weight onto one leg and wrapped her arms around her almost bear body. "Excuse moi but I loathe this idea." She stated as flatly as possible and with a displeased look on her features. "This is almost idioticy. A beautiful peche like moi, merrying a dirty looking Beast like your son?"

A whisper began to echo just then, a whisper in the back of her mind. It was of Mephistopheles. He began to explain to her how she was wrongly approaching this senstive subject. This began to cause mixed emotions in Nasu; the longing of wanting a strong figure to help her, like Mephistopheles but he would probably encourage the situation further. Helplessly she looked to Allen and drifted away into her mind. Lost and unsure.

If it weren't for the other vampires, Allen would have been enjoying the view of Nasuko and her silver hair. However with all the other vampires here he didn't feel comfortable. It wasn't that he was prejudiced against them since Allen generally believed there were good and bad people in just about every race. No, it was for the fact that some of them were looking at Nasuko to hard. He didn't realize it at the time but it was hitting dangerously close to his beserker button, at least as far as his instincts went.

Not enough to attack anyone, he was just agitated.

"Right." Nihon nodded. "My son here.." He indicated towards his son, a silver-haired vampire in the back. "Is Dias. Long ago your clan and my own thought it would be mutually beneficial for you and my son to one day wed. He's suppose to be your fiance."

"What...?" Allen asked in a low tone, not realizing he was clinching his fist hard enough to draw blood.

How can they marry someone sweet like Nasuko to this creep?

"Calm down young man. No one is going to force her into it. I am hardly as heartless and stupid as some of other named covens." Nihon said, making sure his son didn't put his foot into his mouth at the moment. "In the old days, she wouldn't have any say however those days are long ago. All I ask, Nasuko is that you at least get to know my son before giving your answer. If you accept then you and your friend will be moved to our mansion for the time being. It was one of your parents last request before they were slayed by those Angel thugs."

If nothing else, the last part proved he wasn't lying since the only way he could know about what happened was if he was close or been there himself.

Nasuko's beautiful and healthy silver hair was a shade darker now that it had been wet down from the ocean, and clung onto her ivory skin. Her bangs, also stuck to her face, curved from her brow to her ears as if she had attempted to tuck the lock back there a few times. She had always had long and bountiful hair but never seemed to deal much with it. Now with it wet and soaked she continuely brushed it back and forth with her finger tips.

With beautiful moonlight eyes now, Nasuko turned to face Allen but found words of a different voice echoing between them.

The strange, unfamiliar males voice made Nasuko's eye twitch with displeasure. The word Mutt was used yet again and in great displeasure. With graceful ease she pulled herself to her feet and whirled to face the newcomers.

The second man began to talk far before Nasu had even discovered her own voice. "I am Nasuko Moxington. What's there to discuss? Did I run your pet over with my bike? That seems to be a problem lately.."

(OCC: Time skip time! Sort of)

Allen couldn't help but grin once she began racing towards the ocean. Nasuko was just so much fun to be around simply because of things like this. She was quirky and a bit different in her own way, but he liked that about her. He didn't really care who saw at the moment a he raced along side Nasuko with faster then normal speed, hell it wasn't like the people here were normal or human themselves.

Like Nasuko, he had to adjust to the cold water but it was quicker due to his Alusarian nature, or half of it. They adjusted to harsh temperatures quicker then most, and at times like these he was glad for it.

For the rest of the day, he enjoyed his time with Nasuko, not caring about the others at the beach that day.

I wish I could just stay like this forever..

* *

Some time later after the day was close to being done, Nasuko and Allen found themselves alone at the beach. He felt happy to be alone with her but at the same time it felt like he was going to verbally trip over his own feet, there was something he wanted to say..

"You must be Nasuko. I didn't think my fiance would be a half-breed. Or a mutt in this case"

Allen heard a male voice and instantly became alert, tensing at the sight of a group of men in black. They seemed high class of some kind but their scent stood out like sore thumbs.

Vampires. Pure-blooded ones too

"What the hell did you just say?" Allen was ready to fight after that comment, he didn't let things like that just slide.

One of them stepped forward, looking the oldest as in his 30's. "Quite boy and show some respect." He was tall and had a single scar above his right eye. "Please forgive my rude son, but to clarify you young lady are Nasuko correct? I'm Nihon Sunders head of the Sunders Clan. There's something I need to discuss with you."

Nasuko arose after grasping his hand, the warmth from his palms felt rather strange to her. Once standing she adjusted her surfer grab then proceeded to the edge of the water. The beautiful sapphire hues amazed her while she watched the tides roll in and then drift back out.

In her many travels the Mutt had seen many oceans and seas; but none seemed to hold a candle to this. The people who were hip deep in the ocean seemed like an aquatic race, the way they seemed to guilde through the water effortlessly. For having seen so many bodies of water; Nasuko had never really tested her skill in the art of swimming. This would surely be interesting.

With a hair-band she had kept around her wrist she tied her hair back into a high pony-tail, leaving a few bangs to frame her delicate face. "Last one in is a rotten bat heart~!" She exclaimed afterward then barrled off past the beach and drove herself through a wave as it reached for the shore. Her thin, pale body soon vanished underneath the surface.

Despite how warm it had been in the sunlight, Nasuko hadn't prepared herself for the water to be so chilly. She felt her body tug with the current of the ocean, along with a few twitches as it began to adjust to the cool liquid. Breaking the surface with a small intake of air Nasuko reappeared a short ways out.

It probably helped that since they were on a alien planet, it helped the males appreciate Nasuko's body a bit more. Of course Allen was pretty sure even back at home she got all sorts of attention, it was just that most of the time she probably wasn't even aware of it. She was a much more pretty girl then she gave herself credit for.

At her question, Allen couldn't help but give that warm smile of his. This was the entire point of the trip anyway; to spend time with her. The fact she was in her current state of dress was just a bonus.

"Sure. It beats just sitting here and being looked at." He offered his hand to help Nasuko up. This would also be a good time just to talk to her, but naturally something's wouldn't be brought up since they were in a public place. Her parents for example he was curious about since he never got the chance to know his biological parents himself.

Nasuko could feel the scummy eyes that fell upon her glorious body as it dazzled men even in the warm sunlight. Of course she looked stunning in her surfer grab but why these filthy-woman-hungry men were looking at her was way beyond her. No Human had really been interested in her before; then again no one seemed that curious about dear old Nasuko.

The Mutt blew a heavy sigh out between her lips and enjoyed Allens pressence as he rejoined her at her chosen location. "Perhaps that would be correct...or..." Nasuko trailed and turned to face Allen with her sunglasses tilted on her nose. "...They never saw a guy like you before. No?"

She then turned away from Allen, realizing just what the women saw in him. He was stunning in all the right places, she had just never seen it before. Ever since she left Nasuko couldn't get her mind off Lance. Sure he was with Dani now but it stung. Her idol, her beloved Lance...Gone and out of her reach. That was, until recently. These little adventures with Allen had really made a good impression on her. She no longer dreamt of Lance nor wondered how Dani was liking that Vampire/Demon.

A crooked smile spread across her paled lips as she turned back to Allen. "How about a dip in ze sea?"

Allen managed to get away from the girls soon enough luckily and went to go find Nasuko, who he didn't see at first. He could always track her Ki or scent but he hoped she wasn't upset at him..

..Where did that line of thinking come from? It made no sense for her too, but it had to have come from somewhere.

And probably somewhere he didn't really want to think about right now.

Out of everything though, Allen hardly expected to see Nasuko like she was. Okay that was dumb, it was a beach. Of course she would be getting dressed like that logically but seeing her like that made him look at her a bit differently then he was before. Almost like a light bulb was slowly turning on, only he was too stubborn to flip the switch--or rather he really didn't want too see where it would go once he turned the light on.

It was a strange analogy, but it worked.

Allen sat down not to far from Nasuko, deciding to just enjoy the scenery with Nasuko. He never really liked getting that kind of attention."Good grief, they act like they never saw a guy before or something." The other guys looking at Nasuko annoyed him for some reason, but he didn't comment about the thing.

The sun on Nasuko's naturally cold, pale skin felt a little out of place. Her eyes, having changed to a more ruby hue in the sunlight, gleamed with the reflection of the oceans waves at the edge of the beach. But then something distracted her and away from the beautiful sea that called for her. Women in small slips of clothing. They were flocking some where and Nasuko was determined to find out where.

The Mutt blinked however when she found they were after Allen. Just like the Succubus' of Hell to Mephistopheles. She rolled her eyes. What was so great about him anyways? Yeah he had a great body but it wasn't like a forgotten Greek God or something.

She blew out a sigh and left Allen to his new found glory. The sand under her feet was like walking on applesauce with her black leather boots. Soon she stopped, sinking in a few inches, then layed out a towel she had nabbed from the Inn and began to remove clothing. First her jacket than her jeans. All that remained was a black and blue bikini top and black surfer shorts to show off her milky white body.

The men scattered around the beach immediately homed-in on this unusual scene and all began to gawk and stare blankly at Nasuko Moxington. Whether she knew this or not was unknown.
