After a long hard day at College, Alex walked down to Restaurant De Delfina for dinner. Alex is what you call a "pasta lover." He loves all sorts of pasta. Maybe it is because of the Italian thing, on his mother's side. She came from a big Italian family. His father also loved pasta but his mother would be the one who would cook that almost everytime and yet Alex has no problem with it. He opened the door and entered, wearing a black button down jacket, white shirt, and black pants. His hair is combed to the left as a Veronica Lake kind of way, and black shoes. First he stood near the entrance to wait until the hostess would arrive. She arrived and he requested a table on the non smoker side. "Alright, follow me," she said, a pretty girl with black hair and blue eyes, leading him to the table. Once they arrived he sat down and she handed him a menu. "Your waiter would arrive shortly," she added.
"Thanks," he said to her. The woman nodded and walked off. He opened the menu to check what he would like to have. At the same time he sat quietly at the table.

Her frilly black dress bouncing happily as she made her way into De Delfina, Loray beamed brightly as she entered a resturant for the first time. Everything looked so pretty, she wanted to touch and question everything but she remained as composed as possible as the hostess came over to seat her. "One?" she asked politely as Loray looked confused. "One for what?" she asked, horribly confused and lacking in general human knowledge. The hostess looked at her in an annoyed manner, assuming that Loray was just being funny. "One for dinner miss." she stated rather briskly as she stared at Loray. "Oh, right. Yes, one!" she chimed happily as she looked around the reesturant in wonder once more. Following the hostess she would be seated alone at the table next to Alex. She was then handed a menu, several pictures on it that all confused Loray. What would she pick? She had no idea, never before had she heard or seen any of this, imprisonment for that long really did make her miss alot. Setting down the confusing booklet, thats what she assumed it was, she began to look about at giggle at how some people were dressed. She enjoyed her short, frilly gothic dresses and didn't realize that to most what they wore was considered normal. After awhile of this she once again picked up the menu, this time it was upside down but she did not bother to correct it.

Instantly, Alex turned to the girl next to him and watched her looking at the menu once then placed it down and then picked it up but upside down. He had to chuckle at that. "Uh, hey, I think you have it upside down," he perked up while reaching over to turn it around for her, "there you go. Now you can read the menu. Do you need any help? It looks like you're confused." He wouldn't mind helping the girl up. In fact he has to admit she is dressing pretty cool. Luckily he's into that kind of stuff. "Oh I have to say I love your outfit. I'm way into those kind of things." He sat back in his seat and continued to smile. Sure she would think he's crazy but heck Alex's a very outgoing kind of guy!

Loray giggled and smiled at the boy who had helped her correct the menu. She had not even noticed it was upside down, just went to show how much she really didn't even belong in this realm. "Thanks hehe" she said as she looked at it but still was not sure what anything was. "Uhh...what should I do now? Im not really sure what anything is..." she said with a laugh. Most would just assume she was foreign, unless they had the ability to sense powers. She then recieved a compliment on her clothing, smile coming to her face instantly. "Thanks, I just assumed I was weird or something for chosing it. Everyone has been looking at me funny." she said as she looked around, still with bright eyes. "Im Loray."

"Well, when the waiter approaches," he explained while still looking at her, "just look at the choices and say which you would like. If you want I am an expert of pasta so I can suggest something really really good. Like take for instance, stuffed shells. Those are so good. Its at the bottom right of your menu. Nah I mean its cool. You mean you never have Italian food before?"

Sounded easy enough, although who knew what kind of wacky things could go wrong when it came to her doing anything. Mortals sure had a funny way of doing things in this realm. "Hmm you pick!" she said smiling sweetly as she moved over to his table and looked across at him. "I am not even sure what Pasta is." she said blinking as he talked about being an expert. "Is it some kind of power or way of fighting?" she asked with a curious gaze. This probably would have not been as funny if she was not being serious but sadly she was, and this was why she usually needed someone to follow her at almost all times to make sure that she didn't find some way to vanquish her self on accident. Stuffed shells made her think of something hard like a turtle shell, a frown played at her lips. "But if it's a shell how would we eat it?" she asked, dead serious. "I would imagine that would be rather tough." she said with a cute smile. She would then giggle once more as realized something, "You didn't tell me your name, it's impolite not to introduce yourself too" she said, accompanying this with a pair of shifty eyes.

"Oh no no no no. Pasta is like grain, wheat. Stuffed shells is not a turtle shell. In fact it is in a shape of a shell but its very good. Okay a waiter is approaching." He helped her back in her table and joined her at the table so that he could help her if needed. Alex opened the menu and looked up as the waiter approached. "Hi I would like to have myself um lasagna and she would like to have some stuffed shells." The waiter nodded, scribbling down the orders and grabbed the menus from Alex. Then he walked off. Alex turned to her. "While we wait for the food, um, tell me about yourself. Where are you from?"

She looked like she was focusing on some impossible theory to grasp when he was explaining the whole shells thing, however she got it. Humans were definitely one weird species. If she had been able to come to this world sooner she would have been less interested, but now she was completely enthralled by what she saw all around here. He asked what anyone would know was coming, he wanted to know more about her. She would not mind sharing truthfully, however it might give him a start as she mentioned one key thing. "Well if you really want to know, I am from the underworld." she stated plainly as if it were no big deal. Of course he could either choose to think she was joking, or he could be spastic or afraid. The next move was up to him, however she was not evil, so he would have no reason to worry. "I have not been in this world for quite some time, the things you all do now a days are quite strange."

"The Underworld?" he asked, completely shocked by the answer. How could a nice girl like her be from there? That, he doesn't understand but well to each their own he guesses. "Wow, so now I understand why it is not familiar up here. Well if you like I can teach you everything about this world. I understand completely and I have to say you're very nice. But then again don't need to worry. I'm a nice person despite that I'm part demon. The only evil demon I knew that was close to me was my uncle. He is not around anymore but located in the demon wasteland. My father and aunt had to vanquish him. But like I said don't need to worry I'll teach you as much as I can about earth. So feel free to ask as many questions as you want. Oh I forgot, my name's Alex."

Loray stared on as he mentioned something about helping her figure things out up here. A nice notion, one she'd probably accept but she had been distracted for a moment by his ability to remain composed even after what she had told him. Perhaps there was some reason to it. She would focus in on what he was saying and it all became clear, he was also a demon. It was no lie either, she could feel the energy now that it was brought to her attention. She had been so overwhelmed that she had not even felt that he had contained some sort of magic property. "Thanks!" she said happily as she tried to figure out what to ask him next. "What is that strange thing that humans use to move around?" she as she bounced her right leg under the table in excitment. Usually the others just treated her as a nuisance and would laugh and ignore her. This was perhaps the first time she really had someone to talk to that didn't look down on her. While at the same time they may have looked down her, they all feared her. Her power was vast, an ability that many knew could turn on them one day. "Oh oh! And what is that thing they are always staring at when they are sitting in their home?"

"Not a problem, I have never met a nice person from the Underworld before but I'm glad I did now. Okay what are you talking about?" he asked. He looked over to the direction where she had asked about. "Oh that! That is a cart. In order to have more than one tray of food they use it to put three to four trays on the cart so it'd be easier." Alexander laughed softly. "That is call a TV. Its a pretty cool device. You can flip through channels on a little thing call a remote control. What they mean flip is you can just go from one station which is filled with cool things as a movie or a tv show, to another."

He was not afraid? Well that was a new one, she would have fun now that she knew that she would not frighten him away so easily. "So you know of magic?" she asked curiously as she looked closer at his eyes. She was trying to sense what he was, trying to figure out what kind of powers he possessed but something seemed to be keeping her out. Was it that he was not fully magical? Perhaps he was a half breed of sorts, that would definitely confuse the ability to feel his power. "If your not afraid and aware of magic then that would make you a witch right?" she asked, now poking into his business. She could not help it, it was not everyday that she found someone like him to talk to, magical yet not rude.

"Yep, I do know magic," he responded first before taking a bite of his food and then swallowed the food afterwards. Then he continued. "And also to answer the second question, yes. My father was half demon and half witch. My mother was just a whitelighter. I'm not sure if she was a witch before she became a whitelighter, but my father was definately a witch. I have levitation, and I can form energy balls. Plus I orb like a whitelighter. What about you?" Alex asked.

Her eyes got wide, another demon. A smile spread across her face as she watched him now in a new light. He had powers, he could do that which most could not and be quite amusing. "I knew there was something good about you." she said as she started poking at the strange food before eating a little. "But how come your in the human world now? Is it because of the new rulers or did you live here before?" she asked as she tilted her head to the side. Her eyes were now scanning the length of his body, what she could see from her seat and how high the table was. "I think this place is fun, but what im told from other people is that it used to be alot more fun a few years ago then what it is now."

"Hey thanks," Alex exclaimed. He certainly likes this girl and glad that he had befriended her. "Well I was born on earth actually. I only knew about demons since well my family had to vanquish them as the legandary Charmed Ones had to as well though we're far from being the most powerful family ever as they are. We are just your average witch family if you count the demon side and the whitelighter side. Yeah that's true but you know I tend to still think of it as fun, despite that there are major destruction from the battle that was happening here."
