The security clearance at the place was insane, but really he supposed he could understand it. Political leaders were always being assassinated or attacked in some way so they had to constantly have some type of guard or watch on them. It must get pretty annoying to constantly be shadowed like that, in a way he kinda felt sorry for this Queen person. Though he doubted he would ever meet her anyway.
Hiroki had made sure to arrive 40 minutes earlier then his shift started so that he could get through clearance and still be able to walk around and explore the more open, public ares of the palace. The watchmen at the front gates already didn't like him, and that thought caused a sly smirk to slip over his wide mouth. Ahh, all in a days work.
Currently he was wandering down some random hallway, totally lost and obviously not giving a damn. He still had 30 minutes before he was supposed to start...and he had no idea where that was now. So he kept wandering around sneering at the girls and nodding at some guys. Stupid girls, they were either giggling about him or blushing when he caught their eyes, what was wrong with them?

Of all the irresponsible, childish, .... UGH! she couldn't even come up with more adjectives for how Usagi had behaved herself today; that was how upset she was! Rei would be surprised if she came through this year without a head of silver, if this was the way that the new "queen" was going to be acting! Still dressed in her "going out" clothes, which today consisted of tight black jeans, a nice button up black blouse and a dash of gold jewelry. It wasn't anything fancy, but she had taken the time to dig it out of storage and put a dash of make up on. Perhaps it wouldn't kill her to make a little of her "civilian" wardrobe easy accessible...
It was just then, as she was turning down a hallway which lead back to her sanctuary that something out of the ordinary caught her attention. That same chill she'd felt just a few hours earlier today slapped her spine and ran up the length of it. Shuddering faintly, the Priestess stopped dead in her tracks and tried to 'feel out' the sensation. Lucan had charge of Nathanial (she really should go rescue him), so it couldn't be him...
She glanced about and finally noticed a curled blonde head, not much taller than herself, heading towards one of the restricted parts of the palace. She frowned, for he wasn't in the servants livery... "HEY! YOU!"

Hiroki kept strolling about idly, eyes wandering about the massive hallway, still just as lost as ever. He had the feeling that something big was headed his way but when he looked around, and even behind him, he didn't see anything. No illusions this time either, thankfully. That would not make the best of impressions, being caught on camera (he knew there were a bunch of them everywhere, he was very aware of them), talking to or swatting away something that no one but he could see.
"Tch, first day jitters or something." The he was yelled at, he stopped in his tracks and turned around in one fluid motion, never leaving the spot he was in. His bright blue eyes went as wide as possible and his arms slack at his sides. A woman was coming down toward him, which shouldn't be that big of a deal. But...he felt very odd.
Tilting his head he waited for her to get close. The closer she got the worse the feeling became. One hand clutched the front of his shirt, around the area his heart was, it was thumping madly and he could feel his face flush. What in the fuck was going on? Sure she was pretty damn hot...probably better looking then any other chick he had laid his eyes on, ever, but this was ridiculous.

The idiot turned and when he did, Rei took a second to register a momentary shock. He was Japanese? The facial structure didn't lie, but his hair was too good for a bleach job. The shock of it fled as quickly as it had come, however--especially having been friends with usagi for as long as she had. Besides, how many people had questioned her eyes?
The static-electric feeling on her spine only increased the closer that she got to him. It wasn't entirely unexpected but Rei still had to admit some shock in it being so tangible. Never before had a feeling rolled over her this thickly! Rei brushed it off. "I.D. Badge and clearance. Now."

Well wasn't she awfully bossy and mouthy? He sneered at her even as his heart lurched and he had the urge to touch her face. There was no way he was going to fall for some stupid girl, ever. Let alone some bossy, and probably controlling bitch. "Now come on honey, you have any manners? How about a please?"
Oh he had a feeling that was going to rile her up and for some reason he wanted to do that to her right now, more then anything else. His hands slid into his jean pockets and he cocked one hip to the side. The sneer turning into a smirk with one side turning up just a tad more then the others. Yeah he had everything on him or he wouldn't be in here right now, but damn if it wasn't going to be fun messing with someone on his first day.
Hiroki doubted he would last long here. They were so damn uptight.

One of her eyebrows twitched. The woman seemed to freeze for a long moment, staring up the few inches between their heights. Her eyes flashed with a sort of fire that spoke warning signs to anyone else. "Manners?" She asked silkily, "How's this for manners: If I hadn't stopped you just now you were going to walk into a level ten clearance zone. Quite in fact, that door you're headed for leads to my personal domain, and I don't take kindly to persons traipsing about my gardens without my knowledge. Now, I suggest you either show me your clearance, explain to me what you're looking for, or get the hell out of my way."

Ohh this one had some passion in her, how fun this would be. He purposefully licked his lips, and slowly, before he said anything else to her. Enjoying her threats and even her voice for some reason that he refused to think about. "Level 10 you say? Huh, not too bad." Though he seemed completely unfazed by her fiery eyes or words, in fact it only seemed to spur him on.
Aww how cute, she had gardens. "Flowers huh? Poison ivy, mandrake, foxglove? those are the types of things a 'lady' like you would grow I bet." He rolled the word lady around on his tongue sarcastically. He removed his left hand from his pocket and peered at it curiously. "Oh look, nothing there!" He did the same with the right, shaking his head in mock sadness. "Oh me oh my, now where did I put that silly badge?"
She never told him to leave the hallway, or go elsewhere, just to move out of her way. Lips pursed as he pondered and then the sly grin reappeared. "Why not just walk around me hot stuff? This hallway is big enough for the both of us."

Rei wanted to rend this one limb from cocky limb. The sheer cheek of this man was driving her nuts and they hadn't been speaking for more than a few minutes! Far worse than Nathanial had been this morning, this unknown ainu seemed to know exactly how to push her every button. "sacred gardens; have a little respect. You're not a foreigner, I shouldn't have to tell you that.
"I'd suggest you find it quickly, and wear it appropriately from here on in," She said with a cruel smile, "Our security staff doesn't take too kindly to the workers breaking the rules..and I'm inclined to agree with them in this." His last comment didn't warrant a response from her.

Heh. It worked, he had her temper up and flaring. He would almost swear he could see a firey aura whipping around her body about now, but it was probably another one of those illisionary hallucinations. Nothing he was about to tell her thats for damn sure. "Very astute there Princess Pushy."
Grinning from ear to ear he pulled the badge out of his back pocket and clipped it on his shirt without taking his gaze away from hers. It proclaimed, in clean typeface: Iyashii Hiroki, Crystal Palace Technician. (insert some clearance number here cause we never talked about this just yet.).
"What rule breaking? I wasn't breaking a single rule that I heard. Nothing against taking a leisurely stroll about the palace before my shift starts now is there?" Hiroki winked at the dark haired beauty and looked her up and down, letting his body calm down from its initial reaction at the site of her. He was young, but not that damn young.

The aura flared at that as her eyes narrowed. Princess Pushy?! The lavender eyes lowered to glance over his badge. She snorted. Technician? No wonder he was a smart ass. All of those types who understood machinery tended to think themselves better than the others around them--at least the males who did. "You were about to, Iyashii. Came very close to it, in fact. I'd suggest you pay more attention to where you're walking and the colour codes associated with those levels."
She turned to walk around him, getting a few paces away before she stopped and turned half around to leave a parting shot, "And that is Priestess, to you."

He snorted at her, then it broke out into full blown laughter. His hands clutching around his middle as he nearly bent with his humour. "Oh, priestess huh? I'll call you what I want to, seems like ice cold bitch would be a good one."
His stance immediately changed and his eyes took on a slightly foreign look to them, faraway, dreamy yet probing. "I bet you are the kind of girl to get all the guys hot and bothered but you never give up anything. Not that you try, you just do." One arm snaked out and he wrapped it around her waist, jerking her body up against his.
In this position she could feel how slender he was and yet the strength his body held. He was obviously not just some geeky tech who got his kicks from screwing with people. Hiroki's eyes bored into hers as he quickly claimed her mouth in his. He wanted to taste her and let himself, the kiss burning on his mouth and her taste into his brain. A low growl vibrated against their lips, the sound coming from him.
(Yes I asked Rei before moding her xD)

She was caught so off guard by his laughter that she let him touch her--that was a mistake, but not for him. Suddenly the tingles she had been feeling doubled enough to put her in a state of temporary shock. That was the only thing that allowed him to say the things he did to her and get away with it. And then... he kissed her.
Rei's mind went from shock to pure and utter oblivion. Eyes wide open, the woman couldn't help but do what some part of her felt was the right thing--she returned the kiss. There was something comforting about that pair of strong arms around her, the incredible sensations running through her body, the taste of him... So this was what Usagi babbled about.
Reality slammed in with that thought and her eyes, that had begun to close, snapped back open. One hand lifted and flew at his cheek.

The moment she returned the kiss, Hiroki did something he had never done with any other woman in his entire life, he completely lost himself. His eyes slid shut and he just felt right like this, which should bother him but his mind wasn't cooperating currently. Something at the back of his mind poked at him, something about the past and he flicked it away, enjoying the feel and taste of her right here and right now.
Right before her hand connected sharply with his cheek and he let go of her, one hand flying up to massage the now red and extremely sore spot. "What the fuck was that for? You returned the damn kiss you wicked wench!" He snarled at her, his bright blue eyes wild and almost misty with passion and other odd things.
He was even fully aroused but thankfully the baggy button up he was wearing over the tight t-shirt was covering that. His entire body was still tingling and yearning, there had been something downright creepy about the way he reacted to her and it was annoying as fuck, now that he wasn't locked firmly at her lips and could think, somewhat, rationally.

Red faced and more than a little 'bothered' herself, Rei took a step away from him, fists clenched. "Only because I was surprised and ... and... temporarily insane! I should have your ass thrown in prison for assulting me like that!"
And yet her legs felt like rubber. No villian she'd ever faced had made her feel that way... villian. there was something about that word in relation to him. Something to do with... Suddenly Rei didn't want to know. She didn't want to be here, and yet her body was so rebellious to leaving. The taste of him was still in her mouth, lingering, and she licked her lips slightly.

Hiroki snorted at the priestess rudely at her jail comment. "You liked it too much to have me thrown in jail. No one will ever kiss you the way that I just did." He knew that much was true, because he had never reacted like that in his life. Part of him wanted to snatch her up to those chambers of hers and spend hours exploring this feeling, the rest of him wanted her to get the fuck away from him and never come back near.
Another low growl uttered past his lips as his eyes eagerly watched her lick her lips. The movement entirely too erotic for something so simple. Hiroki was never seduced by a woman, but if she tried it may just be too easy.
"Look, how about we just keep this shit to ourselves and be on our merry ways. Does that sound peachy to you?" Thou he took another step towards her, aching to kiss her again, and oh so much more, but it was obvious from the intensity of his gaze he was fighting himself. "It must be this damned Palace, all spell ensorcelled or something."
