Candys trip to town

Candy flew into the small town; invisible to mortles. She looked around the shopping center and saw a young boy, possibly in his late teens looking at some sort of bus schedual. She felt his anger and resentment and licked her lips. She became visible and walked up behind him. "Excuse me do buses come here?" She tried to come across sweet and naive out-a-towner. She thought she had done a fairly good job at it, too.
Ethan looked at the beautiful stranger standing in front of him.The way she talked made her seeem sweet and naive but he could tell she was trouble."yeah early in the morning, they take you to the city." He tried to sound emotionless, but not uninterested. He moved a step closer to her.
The boys intensity both surprised and amused Candy "What are you running from?" She could feel how ofended the question madehim and breathed it in. Mortals emotions fueled her and her darkness. They kept healthy and from becoming one of them. As a mortal she was written off as a sociopath and sent to mentle hospital. But after her transformation, she was accepted and her dark ways were fueled.
Her question shocked Ethan. He didnt even know this womans name and she was asking random and personal questions. He raised a brow at her. "Who says I'm running from anything ? and even if I was I don't even know you! Where do you get off asking a question like that?"
"Don't get angry with me. It's obvious you're running something. I'm Candy. Now when are you going to answer my question?"
"What makes you think I'm going to answer your question.? How do I know I can trust you?"
Candy was amused by how offended he was. "What? You don't have a name? YOu can trust me. A law breaker can trust another law breaker. I'm a runner too. So if I tag long, you'll have to trust me to some extent."
Ethan was extremely puzzled. "I'm Ethan. Tag along? You want to come to the city with me? What makes you think..."
Before he could finish Candy showed him a bundle of cash. "Guess how got this?"
Ethan started to smile a little. If she was on his side of the law a travel companion with some extra cash wouldn't be too bad of an idea. "Same way I get my cash... selling goods? Meet me back here tomorrow around 5:30?"
Candy was pleased with how easily she got him to buy into her. "Well I don't have a place to say."
Ethan knew this was a bad idea, but what was the worst that could happen? He had nothing left to lose. "You can stay at my apartment with me tonight."
Candy smiled. "Sounds great."

Ethan woke up the next morning feel as if all the life and emotion he had was sucked out of him. He felt nearly dead. Candy stood at the foot of the bad, "Thank you, I feel much better." Then she vanished as if in thin air.

Candy stepped out of the apartment feeling all the delicious emotions filling her up, and flew out of the small town.
