Eva walked casually out of the dark alleyway, wiping away the blood around her lips with her fingers and sucked on them softly, not wanting to waste a drop. She heard the echo of the drunk's soft moaning reverberating behind her, a kind confirmation that she had not gone to far. It had been a hell of a last few days and the universe had seen fit to provide her with the sleeping drunk as a consolation prize. Four fucking nights of stalking the streets for that fucking human and Eva had nothing to show for it. She hadn't failed this badly since Budapest and just the mere thought of that mission made her wince. There's no use feeling sorry for yourself, you crusty old bitch. Eva thought bitterly to herself. Still, she decided she had had enough for tonight and needed to unwind. She checked her phone, finding that she was closer to the White Rabbit than she'd initially thought. Eva knew the human occasionally visited the spot, due to his ties with the Black Prince, so perhaps she'd get lucky and find him there. And if not, she could still enjoy the atmosphere of the place and perhaps meet someone who had more information.
As she walked towards the White Rabbit, cigarette planted firmly between her teeth and her hands stuffed deeply into her maroon leather jacket, Eva's mind turned once again to the man she was hunting. Benny had only given her his first name, Luke, and told her he'd been a human victim of the Project Twilight. The Rat had not explained further, but Eva could imagine what horrors the man had gone through and wondered how different he was now, not just physically, but mentally. Though she loved her line of work, it had opened her eyes to the worst of humanity. Project Twilight was not the first pseudo-science horror factory she'd come across, and she'd met her fair share of their victims. The body can heal, but the mind sometimes simply cannot. If Luke was trying to take down the facility than he was not truly gone. But that didn't mean his scars were healed.
Eva's train of thought came to a halt as she arrived at the White Rabbit. The Bruja bouncers gave her a scathing, apprehensive look, as they had continued to do since her first encounter with them. She winked to them as she walked in, enjoying their small flinch backwards. As she entered the club, Eva removed her maroon jacket and handed it to the coat check, revealing her slightly scandalous, but mainly lazily put together look. She wore a black sports bra and baggy black sweatpants tucked into her black combat boots. Her abnormally pale skin seemed to reflect the lights of the bar, giving her skin different hues as various spotlights swung past her. Over the past week since her arrival in the city Eva had begun to make a few acquaintances at the bar and spent her first hour at the bar moving around, speaking to each in turn. Eventually she became a bit tired and slid into an unoccupied booth. While the bar wasn't dead by any means, it was quieter than other nights she'd been there. Eva tossed her packet of Marlboro blacks onto the table and began to chain smoke, savoring in the sour air of the smoke as she watched the various supernatural and mortal creatures roaming through the bar.
Perhaps tonight would be the night she found her prey. But at this point, her belly still full of boozed soaked blood and the smoke cloud hanging around her, Eva was content to simply let the night pass if that was how it must go.
