Thread: A Whole New World (Collector x Hardor)

Brian's eyes flickered with a momentary fear as the strange females eyes seemed to shift in color, slowly shifting into solid, golden orbs before emitting what seemed like a small bolt of electricity in his direction. His body immediately braced for whatever was to come his way but, to his great surprise, the only sensation that met him was a mild jolt, the sensation nothing more than moderately annoying to the extremely confused male. What the hell have I gotten myself into? He thought to himself, extremely confused as to what she was and what the hell she was doing there. That last little display had definitely proven that she was not from these parts or any parts he'd ever heard of. After all, you would think you'd catch word at some point and time of some group of people whom looked like elves and had skin the color of her own. Oh, and that were able to conjure electricity to zap surrounding people. The idea of her possibly being an alien quickly slipped into his mind but he quickly dismissed that thought, shaking away the mental image of a little green man with a large head. The pair slipped into his already heated car and, despite his rather innocent request for her to buckle up, his words were met with resistance of her own. An expression of confusion played its way across his features once more before he let out a simple sigh, a hand moving up to pinch slightly at the bridge of his nose. It was like he was talking to an infant. Clearly she was well educated and she clearly held some deep sense of self importance but her ignorance to the civilization she was surrounded by made matters quite confusing. He gave his head a slight shake and brought his eyes back up to her own, Yes, I have reason to believe you may or may not have committed a crime. Now I would like you to pull that restraint across your chest and attach it to that. He stated, moving a hand to gesture at the latch for her belt, We're only a few minutes away from my house where we will figure out whether or not you're guilty of these crimes and figure out what all is going on here. He said, waiting a moment for her to meet his request before switching his car into drive and starting on his way once more. He allowed silence to slip between them for a moment before glancing over in her direction, You're not from around here, are you? He asked, though he knew full well the answer was quite obvious. Nothing about her fit this town, this time period, or even this world. But where could she possibly be from? Space? A different universe? Or was she just some loon who'd dressed up in quite the strange attire for a winter evening, stumbled into the street and met the front end of his car? He guessed only time would truly reveal what she truly was. The highway soon came to an end as Brian turned off and made his way onto the slow moving streets of Boston. A slight sigh left him as he merged into the caravan of cars attempting to travel along the snow-covered roadways. Luckily for him, their trip was rather short lived before he turned off of the main road, plowed his way through a block or two of powdery snow before pulling into the driveway of his simple house. It was a two story structure made up of three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a sad excuse for a kitchen and a living room that he spent the bulk of his time in. He switched his car off and killed the headlights, his eyes turning towards her, You may remove the binds. Tighten the jacket and come with me. It's going to be cold for a few minutes. He'd finally given up talking to her like an idiot, this time switching his voice up as he became one with this strange role of an authority figure. She hadn't violated any laws to his knowledge but the change in persona's seemed more convenient to get her to move. After all, it seemed speaking to this female who was convinced she was royalty would only earn him little shocks from whatever sorcery she'd conjured up. He moved to unlock the door and stepped inside, holding it open before gesturing for her to enter, Welcome to my home. I'm not sure what sort of palace you're used to but I'm afraid this will have to suffice for the time being. He stated, sarcasm thick in his voice as he nudged the door shut and closed out the cold weather.
