She squeaked when she realized he could understand her. She squeaked in question about who Grim was, then settled again and looked around the room and slowly let her eyes settle on a gun.

"A good friend of mine." he said, a devious smile shone in his eyes. "How long have you lived on the street?" he questioned, wanting to change the subject.

Two years, she squeaked. That was how long she had been free from the strange test facility where she had awoken in, and that was how long she'd lived in a shoe in the alley. Nimh squeaked in question why he was letting a 'mouse' live with him.

He was silent for a moment, unsure of how to answer her question. Honestly, he wasn't sure why he'd taken her home with him-other than to keep her from being killed- which aggrivated him. And such emotions were rare for Ace, considering his calm, collected demeanur. "I didn't want you to fall victim to a death undeserving of you." he finally said, unsure of how she would recieve the statement. "What happened to you to cause you to be homeless?" he asked, intrigued by how such a beautiful girl could have such an ugly past.

Nimh thought for a moment then went about explaining how she had woken up two years ago in this creepy test facility and ran away, and that she didn't remember anything before that. She shifted slightly in his hand, sitting.

Shocked almost as much by her honesty as her story, he was silent for a moment, reflecting on her words. "What's your name." he asked softly, feeling oddly linked to the girl because of the fact that neither of them had much of a past.

She squeaked out, Nimh, then asked for his name as well. Nimh looked up at him with innocent blue and green eyes, nose twitching. THen she asked if he had any spare clothes, and if not, minded going back to her alley so she could retrieve her own.

"I already whent back and got them when you were sleeping." Ace responded, pointing to a small bag in the corner of the room. "And I'm Ace." he said, feeling the sudden urge to protect the innocent creature peering up at him from others like him in the world. "Here, I'll leave you in here to change so you know I'm not looking at you on the monitor." he said, placing her carefully on the floor before leaving.

She squeaked a thank you then went to the bag, changing into her human form and sliding the dirty blue shirt on and her ragged old jeans on. She had shoes in there too, but she didn't wear them if she didn't have to- she hated how confined shoes felt. She walked out of hte room, looking around for Ace silently.

You found him sitting in front of a fireplace in total darkness with only the fire as a source of light. His hands were again covered with another set of black leather gloves, his sleeves now pulled down to their normal length. His eyes were focused on the flames, although it was obvious that his mind was elsewhere. He seemed oblivious to the fact Nymh had entered the room.

Nimh walked over and sat next to him, staring into the fire silently then turning her face towards his form, the one blue and one green eye going over him silently. He was so attractive, it made her want to drool, but she didn't. "So I can eat outta the fridge and you won't mind, right?" she asked.

Made away of her prescence by her tone ,he turned to face her. "Ye-" stopping mid sentence, he gazed into Nymh's eyes up close for the first time. They were entrancing, simply stunning. Forcing himself to break eye contact, he turned his focus to her clothes, relaizing they were dirty. Remembering he had stopped speaking mid-sentence, he said, "Yeah. Do you want some clean clothes? " Not waiting for her to answer he dissapeared into his bedroom and reappeared seconds later with jeans and a t-shirt. Scolsding himself for allowing Nymh to have such a drastic effect on his thoghts, he focused on maintaining his clarity as he handed the jeans to her. "Just speak to the butler and he'll make you whatever you want." he said, ringing a bell. A man appeared in the doorway a few seconds later, dressed in a tuxedo. Smiling politely, the butlerl awaited orders. "Give her whatever she wants." Ace said without looking at the man.

Nimh blinked at his sudden trouble to speak, then settled back when he started again. "No..." she started to answer but he was already gone to get some clean clothes. "Okay, thanks," she mumbled and took them and set them in her lap. She turned her head over to the butler, grinning back at him happily. She told him what she would like, then vanished from the room to change again.

While you were in the other room, you heard the doorbell ring, followed by the shuffling of many feet. Muffled voices began to argue, though from where you were, you couldn't make out exactly what about.

Nimh felt curiousity peak as she heard the voices and shuffling. SHe stripped and changed into her mouse form and slunk through the shadows into the room to eavesdrop.
