In one of the booths sat a woman, looking to be in her mid-twenties. She was an abnormally large woman with slim muscle covering her tall, 6'6" frame. The strangest thing had to be the fact that she had fire emitting from her body around her waist and chest to cover herself instead of clothes and for some reason the fire didn't burn anything around it.
She pulled her long red hair out of the way of her bright orange eyes as she downed a whole pint in seconds.
"Another!~"
The woman smiled at the waitress as more alcohol was brought to her, showing off large fangs.

[i]There was just some stuff that made Booker stare in confusion. The pirate captain had seen a lot in his day, but a woman wearing fire was most certainly an anomaly to him. He stood from his seat in the bar and grabbed a drink for her. Booker took his seat across from her, sliding a drink to her half of the table. "Hope you don't mind I'm bringing you one instead?" [/i]
-
She gulped it down rather quick before smiling at the man, happy she got a drink, not caring who brought it. "Ah! Thanks! I don't care who brings it as long as I get one. I do wonder why you came over here though. Don't you have your band of sketchy guys to attend to? You like, in a gang or something?"
-
[i]"Something like that," Booker said with a grin, shaking his head slightly. He looked into his drink for a moment and pondered - Did he really looks sketchy? He drank it and looked back up at the woman. "They'll be fine alone, I just came to see what was up with you. You're on fire right now, and I mean that as both a compliment and literally." [/i]
-
"Umm. Thanks." She shrugged not really getting the compliment. "Yeah, I don't like clothes, but apparently nudity is bad so I use fire. It works and I still feel free as a bird so I don't mind."
-
[i]"Riiight. So you don't like clothes, is that a religion thing or something?" [/i]
-
"No, just not used to it." She shrugged again. "I'm used to hunting with my sisters in an Eternal Forest where clothes don't exactly matter."
-
[i]"An eternal forest? Whats that?" [/i]
-
"It's where we hunt. The perfect place for any hunter." She sighed, as if remembering some great memory. "Woods that go on forever, filled with the most dangerous creatures imaginable."
-
[i]"Huh. Would you be keeping pelts if you killed something there?" [/i]
-
"Yes, I have the largest collection of my sisters actually!" She seemed to get a bit excited at mentioning it. "Very rare ones too!"
-
[i]"Huh. Where is this forest?" [/i]
-
"I...uhh...I'm not sure. I just go there." She chuckled. "I can just appear there if I want really to. It's weird. I'm not a teleporter, I swear, I just can for some reason to that specific place."
-
[i]"That place sounds like fun. Who knows, maybe I'll find it some day." [/i]
-
"Maybe. I honestly have no idea if it's one of those dumb magical things or not. I bet you just want to sell the rare and exotic pelts though."
-
[i]"Nah, not entirely," Booker said to her. He would sell some of them, though there would be some that he kept. [/i]
-
"I do it for the challenge, to get stronger, and brag to my sisters." She laughed a little. "It's not even a competition with them."
-
[i]"They aren't as good as you, I guess?" [/i]
-
"Well, they also don't hunt as much. A few paint, some others play games....I hunt."
-
[i]"Sounds like a fun family. How often do you hunt?"[/i]
-
"Everyday!" She cheered. "Almost all day."
-
[i]"Huh, nice." Booker finished up with his drink. "I think I ought to be getting out of here soon. It was nice talking to you, er..." [/i]
-
"Alex. It was fun talking to you too..."
-
[i]"Booker." Alex seemed cool enough in Booker's opinion, so he grabbed a pen from his pocket and a napkin. He wrote his phone number on it with the words "Let's hang out sometime" on it, and he slid it to Alex. He didn't mean it in a romantic way, to be clear. [/i]
-
"If I called this could I help kill some people with no strings attached?" She asked, taking the paper.
-
[i]"...Depends."[/i]
