</div><br/>Lightning flashed across a pitch black sky, casting eerie shadows within the clouds above the city.  It wove its web like fingertips through the thick wisps of smoke before it disappeared, followed closely by a loud crack of thunder.  It shook the buildings and the very ground they were built on, though this was just the calm before the real storm hit.  A hurricane was making its way towards the coastal city, though its inhabitants knew nothing about it just yet.  They simply regarded it as another unruly thunderstorm, going about their daily lives as they took shelter from the harsh wind and rain.  Many were glad that it wasn't winter just yet, as this raging thunderstorm could quickly turn into a blizzard if it were cold enough.  Thankfully they needn't worry about such a thing for a couple more months though, as leaves were just beginning to change color and fall off their branches as autumn came into full swing.<br/><br/>Bright neon lights flashed in the darkness, the word "Elysium" lighting up for all to see on one of the buildings within this city, letting it's patron's know it was open and ready for business.  A rather prestigious club that only allowed the most elite within it's doors, it was bustling with activity even in such harsh weather conditions.  Celebrities, famous musicians, and other men and woman of high status were known to frequent the club, thus leading to even more activity as passerby's and paparazzi stopped to try and get a peek inside.  Of course, this meant it was also well guarded, as bouncers and security officers were stationed both indoors and outdoors to keep their guests safe.<br/><br/>Such trivial things couldn't have mattered less to one young woman amidst the crowd though, her long, pale blonde locks cascading over her slender shoulders and down her back.  Her style was unlike most of the other women that were attending the club that night, as she wasn't looking to draw the wandering eyes of men.  A strapless, knee length blush pink dress adorned her small frame, hugging her curves in a flattering way.  The soft fabric cinched around her waist, mildly flaring out around her hips.  In the back, more fabric flowed down past her knees to the middle of her calf, causing the front to be just slightly shorter than the back.  A pair of modest white, lace pumps with a little bow on the toe held her dainty feet, and a delicate rose-gold necklace with a single, small diamond hung from her neck, completely the simple yet classy look.  Beautiful and innocent in appearance, the young women didn't seem to fit in with the rambunctious, scantily clad crowd.  Which perhaps was a good thing, as she was unlike any of them, though they were unaware of the true power that she held.<br/><br/>Bright blue eyes looked out at the rain from beneath the awning, listening as it poured and soaked through everything it touched.  While she knew of thunderstorms and had watched them pass over the Earth, she had never seen it from the perspective of Man.  It was an amazing demonstration of raw, untamed power.  Brilliant in the way the thunder rumbled deep within her chest, and the lighting sent electricity coursing over her skin.  A perfect light display meant to remind mankind of their place in this world, and the might of the higher powers that resided over it.  How she wished she could step out into the storm at that moment and just let it take her away, let the rain completely wash over and envelop her.  There was a reason she had come to the realm of Man though, and much more pressing matters to attend to.  Perhaps when they were done, she would come back here, if only for this wonderful force of nature.  Watching it from high above the clouds was nothing compared to standing within the storm itself.<br/><br/>A small sigh fell from pink lips as she finally turned towards the entrance of the establishment, heels silent on the deep violet carpet that was laid out for guests of the establishment as she walked towards the entrance.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#808080">"Sorry Miss.  Members only."</span>Before she could even get close to the large double doors, a bouncer quickly stopped her, blocking her path.  He stared down at her sternly as he crossed a pair of large, muscular arms over his thick chest.  Any other woman might have been frightened by such a massive, imposing figure, however Eloa knew she had nothing to fear from him.  He was merely flesh and bone, while she was so much more.  A pair of wide doe eyes merely blinked up at him for a moment, studying the man, before a soft smile formed on her lips.  Without a word, the small blonde reached up and gently placed a hand on one of his forearms.  Tensing up, the mans thick eyebrows furrowed together, clearly on guard and ready for whatever the girl might be planning.  However Eloa had no plan, no ulterior motives or deceit.<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:#ff99cc">"It’s okay to let me pass... I mean no harm.  I will not hurt anyone.."</span>Her voice was but a whisper, soft as the winds murmurings through delicate cherry blossoms.  Gentle and kind, it eased any wayward or suspicious thoughts the man may have had.  All it took was a simple brush of her fingertips against him, and the man suddenly felt at peace.  As if he knew deep within his core, this woman was not to be feared.  There was no danger here, and as soon as he realized that, the rigid muscles in his tall form went lax and his expression softened.  Was it some kind of spell?  No, as he was well aware what was happening.  He was in complete control of himself, and still had the power and free will to choose whether to let her in or not.  This was something... different.  Something deeper, as if something within him knew what his brain could not comprehend.<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:#808080">“Y-yes... I guess you don’t...  Alright, just this once you can go ahead inside.  But don't make me regret it.”</span><span class="fixed-color" style="color:#bfbfbf"> </span>Stepping out of the way, the burly bouncer let her pass.  He wasn’t entirely sure why... but he somehow knew it would be okay.  Smiling gratefully at the man, Eloa nodded politely as she walked past.<span class="fixed-color" style="color:#ff99cc"> “Thank you.” </span>The doors were opened for her by another security guard, and Eloa finally stepped inside the loud and boisterous club.<br/><br/>Immediately, she found she much preferred the sound of the rain and thunder than this defeaning, obnoxious music.  It pierced her ears and thumped in her head, making her grimace just a tad.  If all went well though, she shouldn’t be here long.  Sky blue eyes scanned the crowd, and while most would have trouble finding someone in such a dark environment, it was no problem at all to someone like Eloa.  Though that was perhaps due to the fact that she wasn’t exactly human like everyone else, however she appeared to be at the moment at least.<br/><br/><span class="fixed-color" style="color:#ff99cc">“Now... Come out wherever you are.  I’d like to get this over with as quickly as possible.”</span>, she whispered under her breath, walking over to the bar to take a seat.  All she needed to do now was wait and watch.  Her target would show themselves soon enough.
