Vampire District

Forest
"You were the one who brought up the whole job issue," Forest said as she glared right back into those beady little eyes.
"I just wanted to warn someone in a position to do something about a group of organized vampire hunters who are decently armed before things became troublesome," she said as she raised one eyebrow.
This Duke was a bat shit crazy teenager. If he thought throwing a table around and getting into her face would intimidate her, then he was sorely mistaken. She slowly rose to her feet as well and glared at the duke.
"And if you're going to be an absolute brat, I'm sure someone of my talents will easily find employment with a more stable employer," she said with the righteous indignation that only British people could muster.

Duke Taro
If Fore could read his mind, she would be able to see the feelings of pleasant surprise running through his mind, even if outwardly, he simply maintained his frown. The fact of the matter was that this was getting fun for him. "So what?! You think you can threaten me?! The Duke?! Do you know who I am girl? No... right your some blond upstart who has only been here for two hours. A district is basically an enormous swash of land that might as well be a small country on of itself, city-states essentially. Do you want to cross that?! Huh?!"
The man stood over Forest, using his height to look down at her from above. Those beady eyes of his were looking for something within her indigo ones, something perhaps that he was already seeing.

"I think you're mistaken with what the definition of what a threat is, you enormous git," Forest said with a smirk.
I didn't spend hundreds of years with my stupid title to get threatened by a prat like you, she thought as her smirk widened. However, it didn't reach her eyes. Her eyes were hard and gleaming, almost like jewels.
She shielded her own thoughts, an unreadable wall of black crystal where a murder of crows roosted and cawed.
"Yell at me again and I will put you through that wall," she said with a soft voice as her smirk twisted into a hard line.
She leaned forward and whispered in his ear, "By the way, that was a threat."

Duke Taro
The man burst out laughing. Turning around and waving his hand dismissively. "Ok ok I admit it," he said, his harsh tone fading into something more jovial. "That was pretty good. Its always refreshing in my line of work to see someone so brazen, even if it comes from naivete. Everyone here becomes someone's bitch eventually, but I like that fire in your eyes."
A hand reached for the desk, yanking it back up with the simplest of motions. It landed on all four legs with a thud. "Tell me one thing girl, since you are new. Did you know that the guards here are all skilled vampire soldiers or did you just assume we were all that much weaker than you?"
After all, many of the more brazen people who came to this city were those who were the strongest in their worlds. With people like that, a foolish belief in their own power was common. Then again, there were those spirits who chose to challenge authority despite their weakness, either from being stuck with no other choice but to fight, or out of genuine bravery. He wondered which one she was.

"I sensed that the guards were decently powerful," Forest said with a shrug before meeting the Duke's eyes again. "One on one I wouldn't be overly fussed. However, eventually their sheer numbers would overwhelm me. Which is why I didn't just come in like an 80's Action Hero."
"And it's not 'girl'. I'm Forest," she said as she extended her hand out to him, "I haven't been a 'girl' in quite some time. Just between you and me, I'm well preserved."
She did send to him to his mind, And I just don't handle being pushed around. I tend to push back.
