On often occasions Luis didn't attend the balls in Celestia, sure he was rich and was well known enough to be invited to one but he never liked them personally. However, this ball in particular rather than being open to just royals in Celestia, it was open to people from all kingdoms. Now.. This interested him. An opportunity to meet specimens from all kingdoms, to maybe even lure in a few new victims? He really couldn't say no. 

He'd arrive at the ball not too long ago, wearing a victorian blouse with romantic sleeves that drooped elegantly. A black corset adorned his ~~slutty/j~~ waist along with a silver star studded belt, it was accompanied by dark red dress pants and a few silver chains. His golden earrings stood out and surprisingly matched with his skin complexion quite nice. Luis's hair was tied up into a ponytail where it was revealed he was wearing makeup, he may be psychopathic but the man knows how to dress nice! Martínez stood out in a hallway viewing the hauntingly alive portraits of deceased Celestian Royals. 

In his hand was a cup of vodka that he sipped every now and then, his heeled boots clicked rhythmically as he strolled over to a more peculiar painting. The painting in of itself was... Sullen and gory... No wonder if was covered with a cloth. He liked it though. It was almost *Comforting.*

**Ranger was on a new mission. Kill Luis De Joaquín Martínez, a well known rich man who's blood was worth millions alone. Ranger arrived at the ball, wearing a suit with a dress like cape that flowed down to the back of his knees. (Ref pic soon) He wanted to blend in while not standing out too much.**

**He walks through the halls, the chatter of people and clang of glasses interrupt the silence. Noticing the rich vases and clean carpet, he admired it all but still kept the target in mind. He finally spotted him, swiftly going into a hall that he could still see Luis in to avoid being seen. He slightly admired him for a second, marveling at his beauty. Not forgetting why he was there, he went to grab his walkie talkie to inform that the target was found but someone bumped into him. The walkie talkie falls, and ranger scowls at the gentleman who apologized then walked away with a ladies arm wrapped around his waist. He crouches down and picks the walkie talkie up, then looks back and only gets a glimpse of Luis walking off**

Anyways lemme write my response 🔥 ]]
Phillip
Luis De Joaquín Martínez, an active human taxidermist AND trafficker, brutal torturer, and breaking quite a few rules that was given to him when he earned his doctoral degree. He wandered off once more, into another hallway. This one was darker than the one before, candlelight would be the only thing to illuminate this pitch black darkness. Once again the soft tapping of his heels echoed throughout the hallway, he hummed a small tune to himself before he turned his head. 

"Hmn.. There should be a balcony here somewhere.." He had a feeling he was being watched... Maybe it was just a hunch. He stood for a few minutes, looking at the map that was given to him.
Douglas
**Keeping a distance, he knew how to stay hidden. He stayed in the shadows, closely watching his target.** `'You won't get away this time.."` **He thought to himself, watching him take out his map. Slowly pulling out a dagger with gold gems that aligned the handle, he takes the cover off and makes sure not to touch the silver blade. What a stupid idea.. Why would his work 'gift' him a silver weapon? He scowls at the sight of it, but holds on to the leather handle**
Nancy
Wow what a fancy knife i sure hope he doesnt try to stab someone with it ]]
Phillip
Alas, Luis had wandered off once more now finally finding the balcony. However, he seemed to plan on staying at the balcony for quite a while. He leaned on the edge of it overlooking the clutter of people, the background noise of human chatter ruined the moment of silence but then again it was a social event. In his satchel lay a cigarette, Luis snatched it from his bag and lit it up. The smell of smoke now tainted the air, 

"... You know I really hope a few royals here don't remember me- I know I did something to make them mad at me- ahhh whatever." He grumbled to himself as he took another puff.
Douglas
**Luis suddenly heard the low chime of a man behind him, followed along with a metal scraping against metal sound. Ranger runs the knife along the railing, also looking down at the people** `"Luis De Joaquín?.. I've heard so much about you.~"`
Phillip
He lowered the cigarette as his eyes trailed over to the appearance of a ... Wolf boy?... A werewolf. He hasn't seen one of those in a while, "There's many things which part did you hear? I love to hear what stories others have heard of me just to correct them" Luis smiled at Ranger, there wasn't any genuine feeling to it. It was neither grimacing, forced, or even pleasureful. It was an empty smile, it was unsettling.
Douglas
`"Its far too much to go over.. Criminal things.., stealing.., taxidermy.."` **His voice trails off** `"I think you know what you've done. But anyways.. I'm obviously here to kill you.."` **He blandly stated, ready to pounce on him with his dagger**
Phillip
"Aww you don't even wanna get to know me~ What if I had a traumatic backstory dare I say a reason for those things huh?" Luis joked as he waved his hand dismissively at Ranger, "Besides you're a pipsqueak. What could you even do to me?~ And what you're here to kill an *Innocent* Soul for money? How shameful no?"
Georgia
|| imma use the bathroom hold on
Douglas
**He growls at his hand waving and remarks** `"Innocent? Hah!.. You'd like to think that.."` *He bared his teeth, growling as he smacked away his hand from his face**
Phillip
"Look at you acting like a dog... Aren't you a pathetic case.." *He said as he eyed Ranger up and down, observing the possible strength and agility of this so-called 'assassin'* "If anything it's a tad bit creepy you followed me all the way here, couldn't kill me in my office? Had to make it special huh?"
Nancy
BEAR W ME I DIDNT SLEEP ALL NIGHT {]

PRETENED HE MEANT IT IN AN OFFENSIGE WAY KAJSJS TY ]]
Douglas
**Ranger was tired of his games. He gripped his dagger, jumping forward to attack him**
Phillip
Luis forcefully directed the silver dagger leading it into his hand. Dark red blood began to ooze sluggishly from the wound, "Oh come on we cant talk it out?" The fact the dagger was straight through his hand and not a single reaction was fathomed was... Concerning to say the least.
Nancy
Btw the knife ||went like 🔪 🫷🔪 like the other end the silver part of the blade is sticking out of bros hand|| ]]
Georgia
|| and by " As he doesn't react to it" I meant "As Luis doesn't react to it"
Phillip
*He raised an eyebrow as he licked some of the blood from his hand,* "Honestly I'm surprised I haven't considered cannibalism yet—" *And down to the floor he went, with Ranger having him practically pinned to the floor* "Oh nooooo~ I hope a big strong man comes to save me" *He jokes, for a person who facaded his whole personality he had... A interesting... Sense of humor one might say.*
Georgia
|| my honest reaction
Nancy
KAJDJSJDAHSHAHSHA ]]

Im sorry hes like that 😞]]
Georgia
|| idk what to do 😭
Nancy
Do i have permission to headbutt ranger   ]]
Georgia
|| that would be so romantical
Phillip
"Why should I? I mean if you'd like to I can switch personalities, I'm almost a chameleon at this point." *He said with a grin, however, in an immediate instance all that mischievous expression and taunt in his voice has disappeared. Luis raised his head and landed a strong head butt straight into Rangers skull. He pushed Ranger off him and dusted himself off* 

"Filthy son of a bitch. Look at you getting angry at me while you cant even finish the job yourself."
Douglas
**He yelps, immediately getting a sharp pain in his head. In the moment of weakness Luis pushed him off, and he falls back. His ears pin down as a loud ringing noise from the pain was heard.** `"You bastard!-"` **He winces. He goes to grab his dagger in a lazy attempt to throw it at him**
Phillip
*He lets the dagger hit his foot, Luis walks closer and kicks Ranger in the stomach* "Look at you. Aren't you simply pathetic god.." *He leaned down to Rangers eye level and grabbed his hair to lift him up to his own eye level* "If you're gonna try to fucking kill me try a bit harder"
Nancy
Btw if you dont want luis manhandling ranger just tell me and i can change my response 🙏 ]]
Georgia
|| oh I'm fine with it
Nancy
OKOK COOL BC IF YOU EVER WANT ME TO STOP JUST TELL ME ]]

|| lemmie respond rw
Nancy
Nuh uh bc rheres a thing called gay awakening 🔥 (example: luis will be having that /hj) ]]
Phillip
*Luis smirked a bit as he looked down at Ranger, he let go when Ranger kicked his arm. For a werewolf he didn't expect him to be that flexible* "Aren't you something..." 
*The strange thing was the opportunity he had to kill Ranger right now.. He didn't take it? He eyed the werewolf again* 
".. Your face is..." *Pause* "Disgusting."
Georgia
|| Ranger is like: >:o
Nancy
IM IN MARINE BIOLOGY SRRY
Douglas
**Ranger fell back down whenever he let go of his hair. Staring back at him, he growled at his rude comment. He sees his dagger beside Luis and quickly grabs it**
Phillip
*He kicked the hand that held the dagger, now grabbing him by the collar* "Lets talk it out like *Civil people.* You may be a dog but I am not."
Douglas
**Through heavy breathing he stared at Luis, angered by his strength.** `"I'm a Werewolf goddamnit! I should be able to just kill him.."` **He thinks to himself** `"Talk *What* Out exactly?"` **He growled**
Phillip
"Well can't we figure out death in a civil way? Or just have a nice *Chat.* You seem like an interesting person! Of course I could also bash your head to the floor and I live off to see another day. I thought I was worth millions? Or are you just a pathetic mercenary."
Douglas
**He bites his lip, contemplating what to say. He couldn't think of anything to say, sighing in defeat**

`"Fine."` **He mutters**
Phillip
*Luis let go of Ranger, dusting himself off. Blood still trickled down his hand,* "Now can I get a name? Why you're here to kill me? I'd ***Love*** To know." *The smile on his face was as fake as his promise to not hurt Ranger (never existed btw‼️) Yet it looked so real, it looked as if he were genuinely calm but no. Wipe smug grin off his face and all that lies is an expressionless face*
Douglas
**With an uncomfortable swallow, he sighs** `"Ranger... And you probably know why I'm here to kill you."`
Phillip
"I do, but why? You're that broke you would go after a *Poor* Taxidermist?" *Define poor. This bitch literally looks like a slutty victorian prince*
Douglas
**He scoffs** `"The taxidermy you do is illegal in multiple kingdoms."` **This dude..**
Phillip
"Illegal yes, can they do anything about it? No not really" *He offered a cigarette to Ranger*
Douglas
**He doesn't scowl, but gives a mean look as he takes the cigarette** `"That's why Im here. To do something about it."` **He looks at the ground where his dagger was still near Luis. He frowned.** `"Can I have that back?"`
Phillip
"Ok not a smoker I see, and why get rid of me? I haven't done anything to you that's scarring? *Yet*" *He looked to the knife and then took it, waving it around in front of Ranger.* ||*He then takes the knife and plunges it into his own hand*|| "Nah I think I'll keep it, you gotta rip it out" *Luis sneered as he took a puff of smoke*
Georgia
||  actually goes braindead from this man

|| **The realization hits ranger that he's a sadist**
Douglas
`"It's not what you've done to me, it's what you've done in general-"` **Rangers words get cut off as a shocked look crosses his face.** `"What the FUCK"` **He accidentally yells, almost gagging at the amount of blood on Luises hand.** `"This guy is crazy.. Or just a sadist.."` **He thinks to himself.** 

**Wiping off the look of disgust from his face, he grabs the knife and rips it out of his hand.** `"This dagger is very expensive."` **He dangles the bloody knife by the handle, careful not to touch the metal** `"You practically ruined it with your sick pleasures!"`
Phillip
"Ohh you're not fun come on" *He said as he wiped some of the blood from his hand, a few of the blood specks flying onto his crisp white shirt* "If the dagger is so expensive maybe you shuold've brought a gun love" *Luis said nonchalantly as he blew another puff of smoke into Rangers eyes* "Don't be a buzzkill"
Douglas
**Ranger slightly pins his ears down as a reaction to the smoke** `"A gun? I don't use those. Who knows how much silvers on those things.."` **He muttered**
Phillip
*He stares at him for a solid second, stiffling laughted* "You- you don't know how to use a *Gun.* Thats the funniest shit I've heard since I ripped out my mothers gut's oh my god!-" *Luis covered his mouth slightly as he really tried to cover his laugh*
Georgia
|| question. Does he have a gun on him?

|| ranger wanna show him

|| is it somewhere visible? Like his side pocket or sum?
Nancy
Its like quite literally attached to his belt lmao like its nice and out there but would mean he would be grabbing at Luis's waist 😔 ( ) ]]
Georgia
|| he can work with that

|| Luis thinking he doesn't know how to use a fun 😡

|| **Intense typing**
Nancy
Yea thats right ranger doesn't know how to have fun 😔 ]]
Douglas
**His jaw fell slightly ajar in an offended way. Looking down at his belt, he sees a gun handle sticking out of his suit/jacket**

`"Don't know how to use a gun?"` **He ignored the fact Luis said he ripped out his mom's guts.** `"You wish!"` **He growls, swiftly and quickly grabbing Luis's gun from the holder attached to his waist. The fancy silver lining on the gun that seemed worth a lot burned his hand with a small sizzling noise. Ignoring it, Ranger turns to the edge of the balcony and aims it at a bird perched in a tree at least half a mile away. He shoots it, the loud sound making his ears ring. The bird drops to the ground, letting him know he successfully hit it. Part of him didn't think he could but the other part was just glad he proved Luis wrong. He blushes slightly.**
Georgia
|| have fun reading that

|| ignore the Grammer errors. "That seemed worth a lot" I mean "That seemed like it was worth a lot"
Phillip
*He's currently processing the fact he just grabbed his waist and ripped out the gun from his belt.* "... *I m p r e s s i v e?* Do you want a cookie for your achievement? Headpats? Like the fucking dog you are?" *He replied as he nodded slowly,* "Well thats the first time I've been proved wrong in quite a while.." *He murmured under his breath, making sure Ranger wouldn't hear it. To actually say he was impressed? Absolutely not*
Georgia
|| THATS SHTIOPIUHSHSB
Nancy
Luhsluifhgliusdhgliudsfhgdush 🫂 ]]
Douglas
**He shrugged** `"What idiot can't shoot a gun.."` **Realizing his hand was burning he instantly drops the gun** `"That's why I don't use guns."` **He rolled his eyes**
Phillip
*He smiled as he watched Ranger drop the gun* "What's wrong, silver an issue for you pretty boy?" *Luis snickered as he picked up the gun*
Douglas
`"Obviously.."` **He murmurs** `"I'm a werewolf idiot."` **How would he know. Maybe Luis thought he was a wolf hybrid or something..**
Phillip
"Huh. You seem more pathetic so I assumed you were a wolf hybrid."
Douglas
`"I am not pathetic!"` **He tightened his fists** `"If anyone's pathetic here it's *You*.. You can't even own up to things you did."`
Phillip
"Oh honey I'm fully aware of my crimes, it's just funny seeing your reactions. You're so... *Angry.* It interests me."
Douglas
**He blushes a little. He couldn't tell if it was from anger or the way Luis acted, and the way he talked.. And the way he smiled..** `"Interests you?"`
Phillip
"I've never met someone with this much pent-up anger, of course other than a demon... A shame that they left before I could try to add them to my collection..."
Douglas
**The sudden voices of people ring in their ears. A man in a fancy suit with a prissy girl in a red dress following him walk down the hall. Assuming there gonna go out onto the balcony, Ranger growled** `"Do you still have that gun out? Put it away."`
Nancy
What if luis shot em... /suggestion /hj ]]
Georgia
||. . . I'm not sure

|| ranger would be like
Phillip
*He blinked slowly as he turned his head to look at the man and woman who were so hopelessly in love with each other. Good thing he's the #1 hater when it comes to happy couples. The gun spun in his finger as it went to his hand and he aimed it at the two, shooting two clean silent shots through their temple* "No more people."
Douglas
**Ranger makes a small yell sound as they fall to the ground, horrified** `"YOU CANT JUST SHOOT PEOPLE!"` **He yells, running over to them and crouching down. He puts two fingers on their neck, checking for a pulse** `"Oh god.. What did you do-"`
Phillip
"Uhhh my job? Look I'm popular on the black market, the business is expecting me I don't know what to tell you darling" *He said as he piled the two bodies together and.. Lifted it over his shoulder?...* "You mind helping me escort this? Or do you want to be next, I'm very sure a bald person on the black market would pay handsomely for that luxurious hair of yours~"
Douglas
**He furrows his brows as Luis picks up the bodies** `"I-.." **He was at a loss for words. After his last.. What seemed like a threat.. He stood up and growled under his breath**
Georgia
|| one more reply and I going eep
Phillip
"Come onnn I've been so nice to you haven't I?" *He cooed gently, knowing damn well he kicked Ranger in the stomach, headbutted him, probably gave him a few bruises.* "Pleaseee?~ I mean I can force you still but at least I'm asking nice."
Douglas
`"Your crazy if you want me to assist you in murder!"` **..** `"Fine.."` **He mutters angrily**
Phillip
"Thanks pretty boy" *He said as he began to direct Ranger to where they were walking*
