Kora nodded, getting up to show Selena to the door. "I would like to try to learn more and two of us trying to get information is probably better than just one." she answered, running her hand through her hair again. The other woman seemed just as tentative as she felt herself. It would be nice to have someone else to talk to about this aggravating state of life they were both now stuck in. Luc was great but he was always busy finding new marks.
"I have the day shift tomorrow at the hospital. If you want to talk some more, meet me here at the apartment at about..." she glanced at her watch, trying to calculate, "I'll be in probably just after 8 pm." she said. That gave her enough time to get out and walk home, picking up her dinner on the way again.
Kora was getting tired. She stretched herself and stifled a yawn. It had been a long day at work and helping this new, orphaned ghoul and she was ready for some sleep. "Sorry about that." she apologized for the yawn. "Long day.."
"So, yeah, if you want to drop by here tomorrow night to discuss matters some more..." she trailed off. She would definitely have to think more about what she already learned as well. She also wondered if maybe being one of these... vampires... damn, it was odd to think of them as such; she wondered if maybe being one would be preferable to to this apparent in-between state. She'd ask Selena about this more tomorrow if the other woman showed up.

Re: Fatal Addiction
The next day Kora went to work as usual, drudging through her shift with her mind elsewhere. She had learned more than she had expected from the conversation with Selena. The few others like them that Kora had met previously had been like her, rejected without much knowledge of what they were or why this had been done to them. That here were masters that cared for their slaves.. the very thought brought the anger back to the surface, the hurt of being used. Kora could feel the jealousy inside of her at what others like this Selena had had and what she had been denied.
Throughout her whole shift, she felt like hitting someone but she managed to curb the urge and was relieved when the day finally ended. She headed home, stopping off as usual to pick up some food on her way. As she walked down the street towards the direction of her apartment, she heard footsteps behind her. She whipped her head around, her orange hair flying as she tried to see where the footsteps were coming from but she didn't see anybody.
She began to run but just as she got up to speed, something hit her neck. The next thing she knew she was on her back on the ground, struggling to get air as the breath was knocked out of her from the impact. She felt dazed, her vision narrowing. She must have hit her head on the ground too, she thought as she struggled to remain conscious. There were figures standing around here and she heard chuckling.
"Looks like we caught us a pretty girl." said a male voice. More snickering followed the statement.
A boot caught her in the ribs, knocking her on to her side. The impact made her gasp, helping her to breathe normally again although with pain. She'd heard a crack when she'd been kicked. She rolled over, getting into position to attempt to get to her feet. She managed to get up on one knee but had to pause as a wave of dizziness passed through her.
"Hey boys, this one is a fighter." said the one in front of her.
Before he could react, she cocked back her arm and let her fist fly at the man's groin.
Kora's fist connected solidly with the sensitive area causing the man to gasp and fall to the ground, holding his nether regions. She knew the impact had caused some real damage other than just the pain. She managed to smirk before another boot caught the side of her head, knocking her back down to the ground. She hit the concrete hard and then felt other kicks begin to pound into her from everywhere. A boot stomped her hand and she let out a shriek as the bones were crushed. The pain was unlike anything she'd ever felt. Another boot caught her in the stomach, flipping her over again. She saw another one coming right for her face before everything went black.

( At the time Kora and Selena are supposed to meet. )
A dark form lay crumpled up against the wall beside the door to Kora's apartment. It lay in the shadows making it only an indistinct silhouette. The hallway of the building was otherwise empty.
