Curiosity brings forth a wolf? (Isabelle/open)

[Deleted]

BOOM!!! The loud sound came forth from William's work area in the small house he had come to call a home and the unvampire was left coughing due to the smoke. Well that was a miserable fail, something had gone unstable and hence it blew up. Going over to the window, he opened it as the smoke went out that way. Some people in this small town would find William a bit odd. His work hours were odd, working late at night and loud noises coming from there. And of course, the occasional explosion. So there were probably some people not too pleased to have the unvampire in the small town or as their neighbor. With the smoke gone, William stood there and let out a sigh. His strangely done hair was blown back and sticking straight up as his face was visibly covered in black from the smoke.

Shaking his head, his hair went back to the way it normally was and he grabbed a rag to wipe the smoke off his face. Having his skin being it's normal color now. Tossing it away, William folded his arms to try and figure out what to do. Though a knock at his door caused him to wilt a bit, great more interruptions pretty much. Going over to the door, he opened it to see who it was.

"Yes?" William said, he didn't open the door fully just enough to where he could see the person and the person could see his face.

Hearing the loud sound of something exploding Izzy shot up in bed, what was that. She peeked out her bedroom window to see her neighbor opening his window and letting out some smoke. This wasn't the first time she was woken up like this and each time it happened her curiosity spiked a bit more. Now it was unbearable and she just had to see what it was about.

She wasn't particularly annoyed by the noise, she was fine with getting little sleep. She shrugged on a light jacket to cover her tank top and went to see what the noise was. She knocked on the door and stood patiently as she waited on him to answer.

"Hey, I was just curious about what the noise was," She said in a friendly tone of voice. She hadn't really ever talked to the person standing in front of her despite her curiosity. "I'm Isabelle by the way, everyone calls me Izzy though," She added her tone still friendly and a bit curious.

[Deleted]

"Just a small explosion from something going unstable." William answered, at least he was being honest.

Isabelle? A rather old fashion name plus one that he had heard in the his old home. Course he didn't know the owner of the name from back then so it didn't really matter. A name was a name, just something your parents call you for your whole life in which you can't get rid of. Plus another thing back then he didn't really get greeted by his neighbors if he had any. Curious? She was curious in the sounds?

"William." William replied, now what?

He had no nicknames here well.....he actually did. Sure those were nicknames from his original time but...did they really qualify for this time? William glanced away as he tried to figure out what to do next. Been a while since he had to meet anyone and really he wasn't used to it.

[Deleted]

"What was it? Were you trying to make something?" She asked curiously. She was going to be curious to people she just met.

Curiously she sniffed the air, trying to catch any signs of lingering smoke. What she smelled instead was something she had never smelled before.Odd, what's that smell? She thought to herself. She listened as she was told his name.

"It's nice to meet you William," She said with a smile. She was still trying to figure out the scent. "Something smells weird," She said, blurting out what she didn't mean to. Oh well, she wondered what he would say.

(Sorry for the short and bad post, I'm drawing blanks!)

[Deleted]

"Haven't figured out what went unstable just now and yes, I was working on something." William answered.

Hearing what she said about something smelling weird, he raised a eyebrow. Unaware that Isabelle was a werewolf and that what she was smelling was probably was the fact that William wasn't his human. Or it could be something else. Nothing smelled weird to him. Course his sense of smell wasn't enhanced like real vampires and many other supernaturals had.

"Probably the smoke mixed with burnt wood and other things." William answered.

That was the only thing he could figure out what to say to her comment on the smell. Paz didn't like the way he smelled due to the grease and oil of working on his inventions. Due to the explosion, working long hours on the machine, and now trying to greet a neighbor he hadn't been able to keep much track of his blood level. During all of this, his blood level was raising and it was only now as he felt hotter that he was noticing it.

"Um....is...is there anything else you need?" William asked as he couldn't help but grab his collar and pull on it a bit to try and get the heat to go away but knew it was really a futile effort.

[Deleted]

"Can I see it?" Izzy asked curiously. She wasn't much good at fixing things but she was really curious. She could try and play with it a bit even though she might make it worse.

She wondered at his raised eyebrow, well she hadn't meant to say something smelled weird. It smelled new, not like oil or burned wood and smoke. It was a new scent that she hadn't gotten before. She sniffed of the air again, it almost seemed to be coming from William.

"No that's not it," She said, she wondered if she should ask if he was human. She didn't want to be wrong and insult him after all. "I am going to feel so stupid if you are but are you human?" She asked curious and giving up on trying to figure out on her own, if he got mad or insulted oh well she would apologize.

She had a good nose, even if it wasn't as good as if she was in werewolf form or her wolf form. She really couldn't place what she was smelling and it was driving her crazy, every new scent nearly drove her mad till she figured out what the scent was. She didn't know if William was a supernatural or not but she hoped she wasn't going to feel stupid for thinking he was one when he wasn't. When he pulled at his collar she got a bit worried.

"No, just kinda curious still. Hey are you okay?" She asked, it wasn't hot out even with her light jacket on Izzy felt fine. She was worried about anyone she met, at least until she found out it was normal behavior and not weird for the person to act a certain way.

[Deleted]

See it? Why did she want that? Right now wasn't a good time considering his blood level was now increasing and increasing rather quickly. Was it best to let someone see it though? The thing was meant for him to see his wife or at least get her a message, should letting in a stranger to see it be wise? It didn't feel wise to him. Though he was gonna have a bigger problem if he didn't do something soon. He couldn't bite Isabelle, for one he didn't know if she was human and she'd probably freak. Plus he rarely ever did bite humans even tough it did a good thing for them.

"Just...just don't touch it please." William said as he pushed the door open more and walked away from it.

Heading toward the work bench there was a rather large wooden like object. True it did have a mirror in the center of it and many wires, light bulbs, and even the golf club Ridely had given him as attached to it. Serving as a lever pretty much for whenever he tried to get it to work. Picking up a few charred pieces of wood, he tossed them into the trash can but stopped when he heard Isabelle's question.

"Is anyone?" William replied as he turned to look at her. "I'm fine. Just hot in here."

As if on cue, a bit of blood left his nose and feeling the warm liquid on his upper lip. He raised a hand and whipped it away and looked at his hand. Great. Just great.

"Excuse me. Please don't touch anything." William said as he headed toward the bathroom door and went in.

He could still hear Isabelle through the door if she spoke back to him.

[Deleted]

Honestly she was just really curious about whatever he was working on. She wasn't going to hurt it or anything. It wasn't like she was going to destroy it because she was mad at him for keeping her up, though she didn't doubt that some people would.

"Okay," She said with a smile as she followed him to where it was.

It looked strange and it was obviously something he was building rather than something he was repairing, this only spiked her interest more. She wondered what it was for but she settled for just looking at it. She wondered if it was shorting out with all the bulbs and stuff on it. When he answered her question it was a strange answer, well that didn't answer anything she thought.

"Sometimes it doesn't feel like there are very many," She said with a slight laugh. That was especially true with where she worked, there were supernaturals everywhere. She leaned over the device on the work bench to get a closer look at the thing without touching it.

She was very careful with it because she also didn't want to knock over the work bench accidentally. She didn't notice William was doing because her focus was on the contraption on the work bench.

"I won't," She said, she was actually being careful not to touch the thing.

"So what's this for anyway?" She asked curiously. She was fine with just looking at it but she did wonder about what he was actually using it for, or trying to anyway. She still worried that there was to much to it and that's why it was blowing itself up but she didn't know and she wasn't going to do anything to it because she was really scared of destroying it.

[Deleted]

Humans were a dime a dozen in his time it seemed. Considering how everyone guarded their secrets so closely and carefully. Plus people back then freaked if they thought or learned someone nearby wasn't human. But what they considered a monster and should be destroyed. Oh well, you couldn't change the way humans were. It was probably still that way today. Turning the faucet on, he rinsed the blood off his hand and dried them off once afterwards. Turning the water off, he grabbed a rag and used to whip the flowing blood away but held the rag there still.

"Nothing. Just a experiment." William answered from the bathroom. "It's nothing important."

It was important. Only to him. Poor Andriana... alone in that cabin...with so many people who hated her. He had to see her or at least get a message to her. The blood started to come faster as he leaned against the sink. The smell of blood was probably getting stronger for a stronger nose to pick up on maybe.

[Deleted]

Supernaturals no longer hid like they used to, the PIDA made sure that supernaturals were safe as much as was possible. No one freaked out unless they saw a werewolf or someone who was partially shifted walking down the street, which Izzy thought was stupid. She was still looking at the machine when William answered her.

"Well it looks neat, to bad it doesn't work yet," She said with her head cocked to the side in interest.

Honestly the 'experiment' would have been important to Isabelle to, probably even the PIDA scientists, after all the PIDA was there to help supernaturals. She hadn't noticed the blood before but she was starting to smell it now. "Are you okay William? I can smell blood," She said in a worried tone. She didn't know what was going on so she had no way to help, even if she did know she probably wouldn't be able to help.

[Deleted]

"It's getting there." William replied as he removed the rag and turned the water on to try and rinse the blood out that was collecting in it.

He was gonna end up passing out soon, he could feel it. No chance to get this to stop now. Even if he wanted to try and find a human to bite and get rid of it the 'easier' way. He doubted he'd find one in time before he passed out. Oh well, he'd have to put up with this for now. Perhaps Isabelle would leave soon?

Nope. It seemed not seeing as how she asked him if he was okay. Great. She was gonna be hanging around no matter what he said. Wasn't she? A low sigh left him as he finished ringing the rag out and turned the water off. In his opinion he was fine.

"I'm fine." William said.

Course his body and the smell of blood was saying otherwise. Feeling dizzy as the blood came out faster, he put a hand against the wall before his eyes closed and he passed out. The sound of him falling over could be heard from outside of the bathroom door.

[Deleted]

"That's good I guess," She said as she looked toward the door. Drawn by the smell of blood she stepped toward it unconsciously.

She had no idea that William would pass out soon and she would probably freak out for a moment then just try and wait for him to wake op. She heard his reply and thought for a minuet on how to reply without sounding like she was disagreeing with him. As she took a step forward she heard a thump as something, or someone, fell to the floor.

Please don't let him have passed out She thought desperately. "William?" She asked through the door as another step brought her right outside the bathroom. If he didn't answer she would figure out a way to get the door open.

When she got the door open she would think Dang it!. She would then check to make sure he was breathing then start pacing to pass the time while she was waiting for him to wake up.

[Deleted]

William shifted a bit, trying to stay conscious though it didn't work. Quickly he passed out before Isabelle was able to utter his name and even when she opened the door, he was still out. The nosebleed he was having was still there. Course there was more blood than one would expect for a nosebleed. He was still breathing, just out cold for the time being. For now he was just lost to dream and memory in this state.

One memory came to mind. Andriana was there, smiling as they were working on something. What was it? William had been working on something course as normal it blew up. The sound had caused Andriana to drop what she was doing and to the door that lead to where the bizzare workshop of his ways.

"William?! William are you alright?" Andriana cried out as she opened the door, only to cough as the black smoke hit her in the face.

She wasn't the only one coughing, William was since he was at the center of it. Despite ducking down and waving his hand, the smoke was still a pain.

"I'm fine." William coughed in response, the smoke eventually cleared and a sigh left him. "This thing is never gonna work!"

"Don't say that." Andriana said as she went over to William. "You can get it to work. I know you can, just don't give up."

Coming back to reality after thirty minutes, William's eyes opened slowly as he grabbed hold of something to sit back up. Well his head certainly hurt now. Looking at the blood on the vest, he unbuttoned it and removed it. Placing the piece of clothing on the ground as a sigh left him. For the moment he didn't realize Isabelle was still there was he grabbed hold of the sink to stand up.
