(Attempting to revive this thread as it seemed some were interested.)<br/><br/><br/>There was much to the world that most humans did not know. The darkness held it's secrets and once upon a time they were mere rumors held in whispers or stories told to the children at night in warning. Parents had always made it easier for the unseen to exist, exasperated with the endless energy a child could give when a parent was worn out gave way to any unimaginable nightmare to be told, all in the guise of getting good behavior and a few hours of down time before they would slip off to bed themselves.  It was a time in this world where the majestic could walk in the shadows unseen by most, humans choosing well lit areas rather than the darkened alleys for travel.  Now it seemed those days had long gone and life for such creatures had grown dull and open.<br/><br/>One such creature had longed for the ways of the old world and so when the auctions had been brought to her attention upon her arrival within the city,well Raine could do no other than oblige out of simple curiosity.<br/><br/>The building had been well secluded amidst an amble mess of abandoned warehouses. The line of cars arriving carefully moved out of sight from the local authorities. Most patrons were still arriving when Raine's car pulled up, her driver's only acknowledgement given was a fleeting glance in the rearview mirror. She was a small thing, meticulously groomed, her hair a thick mass of ebony curls that were neatly pulled to a bun at the back of her head. Her eyes a piercing blue, a contrasting color beneath the khol of thick lashes. Her complexion was that of a soft alabaster doll, unblemished with a light rose blush upon the breath of her cheek bones. Her attire of course was well made, not designer by any standards, but it was fair to say she was well to do.  "Move the car around the back with the others and return in one hour. " Her voice soft and hauntingly sweet to his ears.  The driver gave a nod while responding with a tenor tone. " Yes Miss Duboise, I will be awaiting your return. "  She cast a glance in his direction, a smile curling along the delicate crimson tiers. " I know you will John." her reply left to linger as she was already stepping from the car.<br/><br/>Heels touched the ground and the dark slacks would shift about her easily. Her curves far more alluring than that of a human, though she did not flaunt them in any manner. Her attire was that of a lady, a blouse that rested against the contours of her spine and chest only to cynch about a slender waist before flaring over ample hips. She moved with a stealthness, much like that of a feline on the prowl, a gentle sway of a feminine form set apart by her casual gait.<br/><br/>When she entered into the building she was struck by the unmistakable scent of cleanliness, it was enough to make any gut wrench and it was rather repulsive to her demeanor. It reminded her of another from her life, so many many years ago. The undeniable way he had to clean everything, control everything, well though she had loved him once a upon a time, this was not a fond memory she wished to revisit. The scent had to be shoved off, her mind traveling over those who were present as bits of conversations had filtered to her ears.  Eyes of azure had shifted to one and then another, bringing each participant into view so she could put a face with each name.<br/><br/>Stepping up to one cage she'd look the contents over, holding herself with a certain air of decorum while meticulously assessing the features of the one she regarded. Tags would be examined before she would either move on or engage in simple conversations, judging from answers spoken to gestures and posture would tell her all that she needed to know.  Which one would capture her fancy this night ? Would the allure of saving a human soul from a fate far less traumatizing than she win reign over her desire to dine out on an unsuspecting soul and turn in for an early nights rest.  Only time would tell. So far she saw nothing significant that would catch her attention,it was up to them to barter for it or not.
