The night air felt bitter around her as humans rushed past, the sounds of voices and low laughter hurrying past with them. It was unusually busy for that part of New York, the outskirts where one would never find any of the city's more upstanding residents. The faces that she watched pass where those of naive, stupid youth. Those who thought and

Seeing as how Alexis lived in the rundown outskirts where none of the city's more upstanding citizens would be found, it just so happened that her apartment building was right across the street from this raucous party. Her leather gloved hands held a pillow over her ears as she flipped onto her side to face away from her window in an attempt to fall back to sleep. It was to no avail though. A few moments later her eyes popped back open and she groaned. She tossed the pillow away and then slid out of bed. Alexis had a bit of a temper problem, especially when she was kept awake by this...stuff they called music.

After moving to her closet she went through the process of donning a long sleeved blue shirt and a pair of jeans. The gloves remained on her hands. Movement was made to her window and she yanked on the string hanging from the blinds. Sadly, she yanked so hard it pulled the cheap blinds down and they crashed to the floor with a bit of a clamour. Well, this only served to heighten Alexis' agitation. Slender hands gripped the latches on her window and she flung it up before sticking her head out and yelling at the building across the street.

"Hay! Shu' dat g*&$#@n music off. People are tryin' ta sleep aroun' here! You bunch a X cranked basta'ds!

Not that they were listening. Alexis slammed the window down and then turned away from it. She slipped on a pair of sneakers and then grabbed her cigarettes and the little box of matches off of her nightstand. Her keys were taken and slid into her pocket and her 9mm was tucked into the back of her jeans, with the safety on of course. She pulled her shirt over the gun to conceal it and them left her apartment making sure to lock it behind her. Down the elevator and across the street she went. Her clothes really were a splash of color in this sea of blacks and crimsons. She stuck out like the preverbial sore thumb.

A grimace crossed her face as she was jostled about by the crowd. Even through the thick clothing she would get small flashes of information here and there. She hated crowds. She wasn't really the social type. One of her gloved hands rose to rub at the short cropped and perpetually messy black hair on her head before she placed a cigarette between her lips and lit. As she took a drag from that cancer stick eyes of dark mahoganey hue searched for the location of the noise. That gaze settled upon the large speakers blaring the music out and she gave a rather unlady like grunt. The smoke from her cig was released slowly as she walked towards the speakers.

Oh yes. That noise was going away one way or another.
