Aura laid on the grass, it was a little chilly, but she barely noticed. She had fed a few hours ago and was glad to be somewhere quiet. She closed her eyes and smiled a moment. She loved nights like these..mainly because of the quiet, and it wasn't so crowded here. Aura opened her eyes again and sat up slightly watching the sky,knowing she should probably leave soon.

Being part bear, unlike something like a wolf or a vampire, when Mac had to feed he did one of two things to get his food, he either caught it or he found it. Like a bear, if there happend to be any food within arms reach while he was hungry, he'd just go reach for it, and when he saw the closed butcher shop with all the meat inclosed, he busted open the door to the place and stole a wide variety of large meat slabs and walked away with it. Those who saw him, which was probibly nobody at the time as at the same time he kept himself almost all out of sight, they would notice a strange sight of a shapeshifter only half transformed, fully transformed in the paws to hold the meat, but his face only a little hairy with shape bear teeth.
Getting to the park he sat down at one spot and ploped the meat down in front of him as he grabbed on large slap of steak and started to shove it into his face. Since it was dark he mostly looked like some sort of human, his bear features only showing up close. It would be very dangerous for human to be out there like he was but he was no human.

Aura's ears pricked and she sniffed again. Someone, or something else was in the park with her...not to far away though. She twisted her body around slightly,looking around. At first she didn't see anything, but then she looked back at a figure. She could only see an outline, but knew that was where the scent was coming from. Aura slowly stood, it was odd,someone else being there. Then again, she'd only been in town half a year and still didn't now much about it. Besides the fact there was a lot of violence and other..non-humans.
She found herself walking over, swiftly..quietly. As she got closer she could make out that it was a person..but something was was different. Bear? she thought..but knew that couldn't be right. Then again, she had heard of the few shape shifters around. it had to be one of them. She stood still a moment, only about a foot or two away from him, just watching. She was a pretty curious person and she opened her mouth to speak, but closed it again. His smell was tempting,but she had learned early on that if she over did it..the results were never very good.

When he heard of the danger he slowly turned his head around to see what was there, it wasn't the movement or any sounds she may have made. Mac's senses were heightend and when she approached he smelt a very odd smell, not a nice one either, one he had never smelt before but one that showed something alive. Then as his eyes consentrated in the dark he could start to see a human figure, but this was different, this didn't smell like sweating flesh, this smelt more like rotting and it wasn't nice.
The meat still hanging out of his mouth his paws didn't change form but his face started to change back as the meat then dangled from his teeth. Stepping up he slowly walked that way. "Is someone there?" He didn't trust anybody that may approach him, expecially anyone from this creepy town.

Aura was quiet a moment, then cleared her throat slightly. "Yes." she said, her voice was quiet..it normally was..but it rang out crystal clear. She moved a few steps closer and studied him. "Hello." she said after a moment of silence. She had never seen a shape shifter up close before..that much was obvious.
She let her eyes rest on his paws a moment,then looked up at his eyes again, he was a few inches taller than her. She seemed not even to notice the meat in his mouth. She was oblivious to stuff like that unless it was of absolute importance to her. Actually..unless it was important or affected her..she was oblivious to most things. Which probably wasn't that good of a habit.

As soon as she steped closer his teeth started to grow what looked like large sharp and pointy teeth as his face evolved a little hair as well, he was transforming here mostly to just make a point as when she continued to step another step closer he growled loudly at her. His growl didn't sound human either, it sounded almost like some sort of roar and he made a clear point to her that he didn't want her to step any closer at this point until he trusted her more. He had a lot of enemies afterall, including the goverment, and he wasn't about to just let anybody approach him, expecially in half his form.
Another sign that scared him though was this girls sceant. She didn't smell like any other human he'd encounter before and that just scared him more as he now knew whoever she was, she wasn't just a regular pedestrian taking a midnight stroll in the park. "Who are you? Your not a regular human." When they looked each other in the eyes his almost seemed to glow an odd green colour, although his eyes didn't grow to bright, they still glowed far more then other regular human eyes. He was completly unaware this girl was going up to him to observe him.

Aura looked slightly startled by his transformation..and understood he didn't want her any closer. "Vampire." and small smirk formed on her face. "My name's Aura by the way." she added. She looked into his eyes a moment, she was captivated by them almost..the way they glowed.
Aura blinked a moment. "You're a shapeshifter?" she more asked than said..though she already knew the answer. She wasn't that scared at this moment. Mainly because she knew, unless he had a stake or metal around...if he attacked her, she wouldn't die. There was the fact that he could rip her to shreds if he wanted to though.

She felt certainly a lot less threatend then Mac felt threatend of her. She probibly didn't have enemies like she did but on the other hand if she was a vampire like she said she was then how could she not have her own problems? She was an undead human blood drinking beast, at least when he fed on humans he ate everything of theirs, not just their blood, it contained a lot of iron but not enough to get through the night for a beast like him.
The fact she did say she was vampire calmed him a little more though. He knew they existed and honestly felt no consern as a vampire couldn't feed off blood like his and they knew it as well. He has no reason to attack any of them and they have no reason to go after him, so one comming up to him now scared him a lot less then perhaps lets say some random human, and odds were that it was going to be a human not a vampire so he felt satisfied. "Yeah... bear." He was looking at her the whole time now as she starred into his eyes. He noticed a lot of people did that with him when in pure darkness, the glow probibly freaked them out, it was all just apart of his animal genes though. "Sorry... but no feeding off of me tonight." He wouldn't even be that great for bear meat if she was interested in that. He laughed after saying that knowing how she must have felt if she was wondering if he could be a human per chance.

She laughed softly. "Mm..your smell was tempting..trust me. But I'm not that stupid." she smirked lightly. "And I had already fed before coming here." she smiled. Usualy Aura wasn't so,well, talkitive. She blinked,looking away from his eyes, moving some of her raven black hair form her face. Usually she wouldn't even bother approaching someone she didn't know..but tonight she was to curious not to come near him.
Aura let her eyes wander a moment,she actually couldn't remember the last time she had talked to anyone like this..so casually..though it was a bit unnerving for her at first. She looked at the sky once more,before looking back at him. She had to be wary of the sun. She was fine before it was to high in the sky..but after that..the results wouldn't be pretty.

It had been a bit of time since Mac talked this casually with somebody this long. Most people he met he acted laid back and casual after they broke through his defence and he trusted his safety around them but in this case he had finally done that and so casual conversation was the way to go. Still, he was a little confused on why she was so interested in him all the sudden.
When he had to choose between his form and being a vampire he would have to choose his form. He could withstand most things like sunlight, garlic, or whatever else it is that those vampires couldn't even go near of. Days like this screwed up his sleeping patterns which was aways weird but it wasn't hard to make them up. He was hungry right now so he was eating food. It wasn't like he had a real job or anything so he could wake and sleep any time of the day he chose, so long as he had a place to wake and sleep at to begin with.
As she commented on his smell he raised an eyebrow. "So, what do you need from me anyway?" Sure he was rude but he did feel a bit of danger around her. Not to be taken personally as he felt danger around most at the moment. Trust for a guy like him is earned, not just given away.

Aura shook her head and smiled lightly. "I don't need anything from you." she sighed. A lot of people she dared to approach..that she wasn't going to feed on...asked what she wanted from them..so this wasn't anything new. "Can't a girl just satisfy her curiosity?" she asked, tilting her head.
"I came over becasue I saw an outline..I was curious." she said with as light shrug. She watched him again. "I've never really been..this close to a shapeshifter before." she added, but didn't really know why.

When he really thought about it, he himself had never been around another vampire before. He had been around a few werewolves and others he didn't know what they were, but this was deffinitly his first time up and close to one of these vampire things. If she bit him he'd probibly become vampire as well though, and already having this shapeshifter problem he choose to remain there, the shapeshifter keeps things complicated enough, something like becomming one of those crazy vamps would just make it worse.
"Well... neither have I if that makes you feel any better. I'm the only shapeshifter I know." His cockiness when he said that showed that he was much more comfterable around her now if observing is all she wanted to do, although if she was going to jump at him suddenly he was still alert enough to strike back. "Your also the only vampire I ever met either though." He thoguht he'd put that out there as well.

"Really?" Aura asked,looking back at up at his eyes again. "You seem like the type of person..who's been a lot of places." she said after a moment. It was strange though..she had some friends..he was probably the first person she'd talked to in awhile.
"You never did tell me your name." She said after a minute of silence. She shifted her weight slightly, brushing some loose strands of hair from her face.

He laughed as soon as she said he had been to a lot of places, quite clearly he hadn't. Instead he spent his time in a small cell with a bunch of jackasses who barked orders at him all day long while doing tests. He didn't like it one bit but there was nothing he could do at the time to stop them from jabbing needles into his arms.
"That's because I never told you it." He snapped back at her quite harshly there but Mac's people skills were pethedic, being out of touch of reality for years and just comming back into it now. When he did snap at her though he noticed from her face that it may be a bit rude and so he went on. "Mac Swift." It was probibly a bad idea giving his full name out, but who ever said that was his real name? "Who are you?"

Aura was silent a moment, debating on weather she should tell him. Then thought it would be rude not to,since he had. "Aura Rose." She said finally with a barely visible smile. "Or just Aura." she added for really no particular reason. She noticed the wind picking up and a shiver ran through her. even though she could withstand a lot of cold weather, sometimes it did make her shiver..though she didn't feel cold.
