Vince gave a quick nod to the man, but felt as if he was being put through a metal detector or scanner or some kind by his eyes. He figured it was probably just protocol for this place. Obviously they wanted to keep some people away if the entrance was a complete secret.
Looking down briefly at their hands after Yazuri dropped it, he thought it strange that he had almost forgotten he was holding it. But now that he remembered, he was slightly embarrassed that they had been for quite a while.
But he snapped back into the present. Vince looked at her for a moment just standing up, then took a seat across from her. "There are too many questions for me to know where to start...so why don't you just tell me what you want to tell me?"

"Alright" she breathed, "My mother is a deatheater", the word came out a bit shaky. The thought scared her now, "But im sure you could already have guessed that, my family has been invovled in the darkarts since anyone could remember, and its always been only women in my family, we never marry, and any male children are given away for adoption, it's tradition", she winced that word... tradition. "I guess you can think of us as a sort of spellcasting asian amazon deal". she paused it sounded silly. "Me and my mother are the last of our family, the end of the line, and accordingly she joined the deatheaters, since its the dark arts afterall and power. I was... am... was.. to join them", this is where the running away part came in. Was she a coward or the bravest person in the world she wans't sure.
"I'm not sure who my father was, but whoever he was he must have had some good in him because I can't do it", her breathing was getting quicker. "They wanted me to kill... " she swallowed. "I ran out.... and thats where you found me", she paused for a moment that was pretty much her lifes story in a nutshell.
The music pulsed outside but it was otherwise quiet in the room, while Yazuri waited for a response he should walk out on her, call her evil and walk out. Afterall she wasn't the nicest of people. She had done vain, selfish, and even terrible things before.

Vince listened, so much to take in that he was beyond shock to the point of calmness...if that made any sense whatsoever. "Well then..." he sighed, rubbed his face a little, and sat back. He crossed his foot over his knee. "That's a lot to absorb." Pausing, he thought for a few moments as he stared at his shoe. There must have been some good in Yazuri for her to be unable to kill.
He looked back up at her. "What are you going to do? Your mom must have heard about this already..." he shook his head. That would not be good. "And you can't stay here forever."
Vince didn't know an extreme amount of knowledge about death eaters, but he knew they'd eventually do something to her. Force her to become something she didn't want to become. "You know, I'm going to try and help...in whatever way I can. It won't be much...or anything at all, but at least you know you've got someone on your side."

"Dont get dragged into this", she turned to him her head nearly snapped, her tone was a bit on edge, "You've done enough", last thing that she wanted was him to go all gryffindor hero and get himself killed.
"I have places i can go", she shrugged. Well not really, but she could think of a few places to hide out for awhile. At least until Hogwarts started and then she'd go there. She still had her own vault at Gringotts thanks in part to her mother, and only she could access it so money wouldn't be an issue.
"I doubt they saw much of you, not enough to find you again so you should be safe", she breathed. She rolled her eyes someone on her side... right... and what side was she on now exactly?

"Well, look. I don't feel right just leaving you here." Yes, maybe it was the 'Gryffindor Hero' side of him speaking, but if something did happen to Yazuri after he just left her...he wouldn't be very easy on himself. "Say what you want, but I'm not going until you decide something for yourself right now."
Vince wasn't really worried about himself. He didn't get a good look at the people chasing them, so he just figured they didn't see very much of him either. But Yazuri wasn't safe right now. How was she going to get away from these guys? "No matter where you go, won't they have the ability to find you? I mean...it's happened before, right?" He ran his hand over his hair as if it would help him think.

"I'll be ok here", she decided, "for now". Damn those Gryffindors and their kindness. If he was more cold and calculating he'd be gone by now. Maybe she had just been hanging out with the wrong types all these years. She was purely Slytherin herself though, there were just some boundries she wouldn't cross. So she did have some humanity.
Yazuri smiled a little, "They could find me, of course" and they probably would after awhile, "I just have to stay away from them until Hogwarts, I'll be fine there". She smiled, "Besides, i'm a Mao I wont exactly be hiding out in shacks or anything", she smiled, actually maybe she should consider this trip a vacation.

He sighed. "But you can't stay here for very long." Vince racked through his brain to think of somewhere Yazuri might be able to stay. It was probably a waste to do so, though. She probably already had a few places in mind. Either way, he figured he'd stick around a little longer, even though she did seem pretty calm already.
"What happens after Hogwarts? Do you think they'll back down by the time summer comes around?" He doubted that. But he smiled at the shacks comment. "Oh, more hidden clubs the average person doesn't know about?" Vince gave a sweep over the room with his eyes to acknowledge the place they were in.

"Well you can't say I dont hide out in good taste", she leaned back, and layed her hand flat in her palm a martini appeared. She took a sip before placing it on the table. She hadn't really though of after Hogwarts.
"Honestly, after this year, i'm not sure there will be an after Hogwarts, you can't tell me you haven't felt it, its like being portkeyed slowly, you can feel it pulling you one way or the other. No one will be able to remain neutral in this. That's the way he wants it, fear". Her eyes had drifted and she stared at the wall, "If deatheaters are still around by the time summer comes around, what happens to me will be teh least of your worries".

"That I can't," he chuckled and shook his head.
Vince frowned. "Of course I've felt it, but I'm hoping that things won't come to that." He thought of his family. His very muggle family...if Vince were to die in a fight, what would happen to them? Shaking his head, he tries to throw the thoughts from his brain for the time being.
"How long do you plan on staying here?" He asked, wondering.

"They'll come", Yazuri said "Its inevitable". Her eyes dropped and she picked up her drink again and when she looked back up she had a suprisingly brighter look on her face.
"Something to drink?" she asked crossing one leg over the other and sitting back might as well get comfortable. She really did dress completely and totally impractical, long heals with short skirts and t shirts, mostly all dark colors, except for her shoes she always liked bright shoes.
"I suppose until they find me here, my Mother knows me very well", she sipped her drink. "I can stay here for a night or so."

Vince sunk into his chair a little, and rested his right arm on the armrest. "Yes, I suppose I'll take one. What do you recommend?" After what happened tonight, he hoped it was something a little strong.
He nodded once, mulling over the situation. It was an unfortunate one, and he wished he could help more. He would offer Yazuri a place to stay, but he felt she wouldn't take it. She'd been trying to get him to leave as it is.

"Mmmm" Yazuri studied the drinks carefully it was clear that she wasn't the panicked and frightened girl anymore, something about the music and the drinks and the lights brough her easily back into her Slytherin facade. "That one if your driving home, or flying", she laughed a bit, "and that one if you want to wake up not knowing where your at in the morning adn why your naked", she shrugged as she pointed to the electric blue drink. "... and that" she finished, "Is just plain firewhiskey". It wasn't as fantastical as the other drinks here, but it took the edge off quite nicely, plus you could get completely pissed off of it of course.
"Pick your poison", she flashed a smile, that was meant to say everything but, im a nice girl

Vince shrugged and took the first drink she mentioned. He was flying home. Hopefully. He smiled and took a swig. Once it was down, it took a second to feel, but he made a face and coughed once. "Jeez, now that'll get you." He sniffed and took another swig, not as violent that time, and was fine. That was better.
He sunk into the chair and rested his feet on the table before him, getting comfortable, continuing to sip the drink. The bass beat pounded through the walls and mixed with the rhythm of his heart.

Yazuri giggled slightly, she finished her own and another apeared. "Suit yourself", she shrugged as he took the first drink, and she thought Gryffindors had courage, oh well maybe they weren't all as foolish as she thought.
"You know", she swirled the drink around in the glass, "I used to be half way normal", she shrugged "before all this", she glanced at the room around her and then down to her outfit, "Slytherin does that to you, you know". Of course it wasn't just her house many things had made her who she was or at least who she pretending to be, "you never really can hide from it... it infects everyone.. like a plague", she was babbling now.
Whatever she was drinking was hitting her fast and that was the point.

After finishing off the first one, he poured another. "Oh?" Vince wondered what Yazuri would look like normal. He believed that the Slytherin house pushed it's members into the direction they all went. He nodded. "Of course you can't. Look at the separation of all the houses. Everyone just morphs into almost one glob," he downed half the drink in one shot. It was growing on him more and more. "It just happens."
He began to feel much more relaxed now. It was almost as if he forgot about what he had been worried about 15 minutes ago. "I have a muggle family..." he sighed pausing in the middle of his sentence "...that I feel the need to watch over constantly, but that I feel I need to stay away from to keep them safe."
