"I would like to endure in the ingestion of what I think is called 'Vodka'." the name of the drink sounded unusual in Starfires' dialect.

The waitress nods and writes it down. She turns and walks off, leaving them. Ktonos studies Tina for a second and clears his throat.
"I appreciate you taking time to have a drink with me." HE said gently. "I don't even really know your name and who are you though. WHy don't you tell me a little about yourself."
He looked up as teh Waitress et the drinks down on the table and turned to leave them in privacy.

"Well," began Starfire. "I am Tina Starfire, Admiral of the Grand Fleet for Aldebaran. I was once Captain of the Royal Guard for her Majesty Queen Katrina. I am of the Shapeshifting Faction, but I am afraid that I cannot go into further detail without betraying my Sisterhood. I was always in the Military and I have become accustomed to such a force."
She sipped her vodka and placed it down, putting her hand as close to Ktonos' as possible. "Please tell moe about yourself. I have heard of your species and your powers, but I have known little after that."

"Well, we are an ancient race taht has kept to itself a lot. In this dimension, i haven't found anyothers. The planet i am from is in a different dimension." Ktonos said as he studied her fingers. "Our powers are based around several different things. We have several branches to our training. I, for example am a hunter of the Undead. I am trained in five different types of magic. Others i knew were trained in as many as ten to twenty different types of magic. Our exceptional life spans allow us to do such things like that."
His eyes traced her fingers and he slowly lifted his head to look her in the eyes.
"It is strange the way this dimension turned out. In my dimension, the Aldebarans are a young race and we were teaching them the arts of magic. It is strange to hear that you have magic like shapeshifting styles and keep it secret." He said quietly.
"Her fur seems so soft compared to my scaled hide. I wonder if it helps keep her warm." HE thought as he looked at her.

Starfire placed her own hand on Ktonos', gently stoking the scales with her delicate fingers.
"The pathways to new dimensions in this world are yet to be discovered," she said, blushing slightly. "I have only learnt of your race through the Odyssey of Tanthius the Triumphant, and even I am impressed with the powers that your race yields."
She paused for a moment. "Although many believe that all reptiles are no better than the Toads, I can see that your race is misunderstood due to such stereotyping. To me, exterior appearances are inferior, and it is only what lurks inside you that makes you what you are, and knowing when to release it is what makes you a man."

Ktonos nodded and smirked at Starfire's words.
"Ironic, the lesson we taught teh Aldebaran race are now being told to me..." He said adn looked into her eyes, "..by an Aldebaran."
He lowered his eyes and took a drink of the pale green liquid and nodded.
"A close match, but sweeter than the one i am use to." He said. As for the paths between this dimension and mine, i do not know them. My arrival was an accident and mst likely, I will never be able to return to home again."
He gently drew his finger along Tina's finger feeling her fur and smiled.
"At least i seemed to have found friends here. It is a new universe and there are things to explore and it sounds like a war i can assist with, if i am needed." He said smiling at Tina.

"Even outside this war, I am certain that you are needed," Starfire smiled playfully. "I am always ready to assist those who are helpless themselves." She too began to stroke Ktonos' scales. "For so long, I like you have always sought companionship, but my high-rank means that few are courageous to speak of such emotions. What of you? How does the path of love appear for you?"

"As a hunter, the path i choose to travel is long and dangerous, as wellas hard. For Hunters, love is not a stranger, but it is hard to find one accepting of the dangers of being with a Hunter." Ktonos said calmly.
He took another drink adn set his glass down.
"The enemies of Hunters seek them out. Therefore, a Hunter lives in constant danger. Several others do not know how to deal with those dangers and step back from a Hunter's heart. We usually only find another Hunter to love. IT hurts at times to see a young lady look at you with love in her eyes and see her step back because of fear. Those Hunters that find love outside of the Hunters are well respected and the other Hunters step forward to help protect the young family that is on the way."Ktonos said as he looked at Tina again. "For me, Love is a sweet fruit i hope to taste someday and i pray she will not have to be a Hunter, but she will be an outsider. One not of the Order and one will to undertake the dangers of the possible encounters with the undead, for that is what i hunt."
He looked into her eyes and felt a slight pull as he looked into them.

Tina listened carefully at what Ktonos had to say.
"So, you seek someone outside the hunters who is not afraid of such a species," she moved over to him until they were rubbing shoulders.
"That someone happens to be sitting next to you." she whispered into his ear, with a hint of flirtiness in her voice.

Ktonos looks at her surprised at her openness.
"Are you sure? The Undead are not weak prey." He said cautiously, not wanting to scare her off.
Below the chair, the tip of his serpentine tail twitched nervously.
"I hope she is serious and knows what she is doing. She is beatiful, but i would never forgive myself if she was harmed while being with me." He thought as he watched her.

"After my time holding a military rank such as mine," Starfire continued. "There is little in the Aniverse that could frighten me. I have fought armies of mutilated zombies, battled with mercenaries armed with the deadliest of bombs and even jousted with members of the Dark Order. Even the most unspeakable of incidents I have overcome, so I feel that it would take something on much larger proportions to frighten me."
She placed her hand on his, waiting for him to move.

"I am not attempting to frighten you, Miss. Starfire." Ktonos said gently. "I just want you to understand what could happen, if you were to get involved with me."
He gently wrapped his fingers around her delicate hand and squeezed gently
"If you are serious," He said and leaned down by her head.
He genlty flicked his forked tongue across the tip of her ear. It was his race's version of a gentle kiss.
"I am greatly intrigued by your offer." He finished asa whisper in her ear, so only she heard it.

Starfire, a little surprised by the unusual kiss, decided it was her turn to declare her love. Wrapping her pencil-thin arms around his bulky neck, she planted a passionate kiss on his lips, making sure nobody was watching before she did so.

Ktonos gently pulled back after a second adn smiled.
"I guess that is a good sign? I hope at least." He chuckled adn raised his hand.
His hand made a slight motion and a viel of darkness wrapped around the table. The waitress looked over and just shook her head smiling.

Tina hugged Ktonos, almost toppling onto her back. She regained herself and looked into his eyes.
"To many," she spoke in her squeaky voice. "Your eyes would appear sinister and disturbing. I, however, see them as attractive and amazing."
