Levi woke up to the sound of arguing. With a groan he got up, rubbing a hand over his face. He played with his lip piercing for a minute before he decided he didn't want to deal with his family just yet. Slipping on a pair of dark jeans, a black shirt, and his leather jacket and hiking shoes, he slipped out his window and climbed down the ivy vines to the backyard. His family was old money, but Levi wasn't like most of the stuck up kids around here. He had his own job - Hunting. The evil creatures that go bump in the night. If the snotty kids around here knew anything, they'd probably not treat him like some kind of freak. Levi made his way into the woods, walking on a clearly used trail - his trail. He'd worn this trail down since he could walk, and now he could make it into the deepest parts of the woods without being scared and going back.

Reo sat in the woods on the wide of the trail, using a long sharp stick to care words and drawings into the dirt. She didn't some out there too often, she liked to be in the city roaming the streets. But she was in some trouble right now with a couple of guys and she was laying low out in the woods.

Levi had only been walking for a few minutes before he came upon the girl. It was odd - most of the kids around here didn't bother the woods, usually driving around in their fancy cars or hanging out with friends. For a minute he thought she might be a creature, but he pushed the thought aside. Clearing his throat to let her know he was there, he took a couple steps forward but kept his distance. "This is a first. Someone else in the woods." He said casually, watching her.

Reo looked at him from the corner of her eyes, normally they were a vibrant purple but right now they were a dull gray. She looked him over up and down critically, one eyebrow raised up sharply, finally she decided that he wasn't someone she had to be worried about, he was just a human. "Is it? I guess there's a first for everything." She replied and went back to drawing in the dirt. "You don't really look like someone that would be out here..." Reo commented and looked pointedly at Levi's leather jacket. Reo wore a pair of worn, tight blue jeans, knees ripped and grass stained, her coat was a thin red rain coat, no hood attatched.

Levi surveyed her again, trying not to judge her attire. "The woods calm me down." He replied simply, giving her a curious look. "I haven't seen you around here, however." She didn't look as if she lived around here, but there were a few kids around that weren't afraid to get dirty.

"I usually hang around the dodgy areas of town, I wouldn't expect a pretty boy like yourself to even know where those are though." Reo smirked and tossed the stick over her shoulder and off into the woods. She pulled out a pack of cigarettes from her pocket, sticking one between her lips and lighting it as she looked at Levi, her eyes staring into his proudly.

Levi didn't rise to the bait, and instead he just replied, "I've been all over town." The one thing that did annoy him was when he was compared to the rich kids around here who felt entitled. And her smoking didn't bother him, mostly because most of his family did that. "I'm Levi Perry."

"I'm Reo." She replied and stood up, walking over to him. "Do you smoke Levi Perry?" Reo asked, holding her cigarette out to him, her eyes half-lidded. She wasn't trying to intimidate him or anything, she was just sharp and proud by nature.

Levi stared at her, but shook his head. "I've tried it, back when I was a kid." He let a small, almost invisible smile slip over his expression. "Not my cup of coffee." He wasn't going to try and lecture her about the dangers, because he figured a girl that acted the way Reo did wasn't into being lectured. And Levi wasn't into giving them.

Reo laughed and took another puff, looking him up and down again before exhaling and clicking her tongue against the roof of her mouth. "But you haven't tried again since you were a kid, you know your taste buds change every seven years." She replied and offered the cigarette to him again. "Come on, be a rebel Mr. Perry."

Levi looked at the cigarette, and then up at her. "I'll be coughing up a lung here in a few seconds." He sighed finally, taking the cigarette from her and bringing it to his lips. He didn't try to save himself - he knew how to smoke, he wasn't an idiot. Inhaling, he felt the smoky flavor fill his mouth, the slight but for some reason comfortable burn in his throat. He brought the cigarette away from his mouth, holding the smoke in for all of a few seconds before he felt the coughs bubbling up in his chest. Upon which, he exhaled slowly and forced back the coughs. He had to swallow, which only made the tingle of suppressed coughing in his chest worse. "I feel like a kid again." He said, holding the cigarette back out to her. He cleared his throat to clear the need to cough, relaxing when the tingling stopped.

"Atta boy." She smirked and clapped Levi's shoulder. "You headed anywhere in particular out here, pretty boy?" Reo questioned, doing up her red coat and stuffing her hands in her pockets, looking at him. She wasn't normally one to warm up to strangers, but there was something in his eyes that she could sorta relate too.

Levi shook his head, "No. I was just walking." He said, shrugging. "Care to walk with me?" He never invited anyone on his walks, usually, but he kind of liked her easy attitude. It was nice to talk to someone normal for once.

"Why the hell not, I haven't got anywhere to be." Reo shrugged and began walking, puffing on her cigarette and looking at the trees. "How old are you?" She asked, he seemed to be around her age, she wondered if he went to school or not.

Levi walked beside her, "I'm eighteen. What about you?" He asked, glancing over at her before returning his eyes to the trail. He knew it by heart, but he never was comfortable openly staring at people.
