Another day, another break out...

~Sable

It's funney how bounty hunters never seem to learn. Honestly, you get captured, you break out, you get captured again, and you break out again. I've been letting it go on for 10 years. I think it's time to actually try to run. Poffins are good, but I might get fat, eventually. Time to go, I've been here long enough.

Phasing out of the bonds, I passed through the door.

"Hey! You can't leave!" said a bounty hunter. I just gave my pointy-toothed smirk.

"Hypnosis," I muttered. He fell to the ground, asleep. "Nightmare" I said. As I walked away, he was sweating and writhing on the ground. I just kept smiling. As I reached the door into the real world, I closed my mout and lowered my ears, so I would look somewhat normal. With my head down, I phased through the door, into an alley. Walking quickly across the main road, I nearly kept into the safety of the forest. Sun was setting behind the trees. I walked that way for quite a while. The moon was shining when I heard sounds from nearby. Pulling my goggles down over my eyes, I walked on, my vision in the night a bit better. Eventually, I came upon a mansion.

A mansion? Out here? The only lights on were in a large room, presumably a ballroom. I left my body for a spirit walk. Into the mansion and the ballroom. To my surprise, I found a huge amount of Gijinkas! It looked like some kind of Valentines day dance. I gave a small smile. They all seemed to be having a lot of fun... May be I could introduce myself if I walked in... No, I'd leave them alone until the dance was over... I snuck out quickly before a ghost gijinka saw me.

Outside, I returned to my body and sat below the window, listening to the nice soubnds of music, talk and laughter. Valentines day... What a laugh! Love? What is love? Another way to say "mate with me"? Honestly! Who needs sh*t like that?

"Spying on something your not part of?" said a haunter, floating up to me.

"No, I'm not technically eavesdropping. I'm not picking up information," I pointed out to it.

"Well, there is a girl in there that I help with eaves dropping sometimes."

"Good for her, not that I really care."

"Yeah, you Sableye never really do, huh? All your type does is eat and hide." I nearly punched it, but I refrained.

"Really? I don't see you doing much better. You don't even eat! You just spy on people, and scare them every once in a while." There was a long silence.

"If plan to join them, they'll let you, you know," it said finally.

"Yeah, but once I get some food, I'll ditch this place."

"You probably won't find many gems around here,"

"Yeah, but I eat what I can get. Rocks work sometimes, too."

We sat in silence for a long time after that.

I hope it's okay that I used haunted, Hope-chan! ^_^ Sable's a bit of a loner, as you can see.
