Dave sat under the tree, staring at his hand. he softly touched his index finger and wiggled it, feeling it moving, feeling the skin pulling and the joints flexing. And that was inside the metal glove... that was the metal glove. He looked at his clawed hand, turning it slowly, he had tried to hide it before, wrapping it in bandages and keeping it in his pocket, but the armor plates would catch on his clothes, He yawned. David hadn't slept properly in a while, he kept having bad dreams... He sighed and then started to get up, then fell over again.
easy there...
"AAAAAA!" He fell back over, looking around in shock, some people stopping and stared at him as he looked around, that voice came from... INSIDE HIM!
now you got people looking at us, you mook! Easy there... easy...
He quickly got up and ran down the street, covering his ears, his face totally pale, it was quite a sight, He heard the voice in his head, shocking him as he turned down side roads and alleys in his panic.
the left! no... your other left! No that one! Ahh you missed it... yeah that one! no no no NO! you keep making wrong turns! AAA you missed another one!
When he was finally alone David screamed at the top of his lungs, expelling all air from his body, his panicked voice echoing through the abandoned alley. No one responded to it, it was that kind of alley... The voice continued you got that all out of your system, kid?
an image floated across his eyes, painted on his retinas and dancing in his brain... A red, skull-like mask floating before his eyes, following his field of vision whenever he turned his head, the hollow sockets like a mask hovering inches aboves his face.
you better calm down, now, I'm here to stay and you better believe it. We're gunna be REAL close, so lets not get off on the wrong foot.
David slid down the wall, holding his head in his hands as the mask stared at him. He'd closed his eyes but the red projection was made all the sharper, all the more real against the black of his eyelids. suddenly he felt something roughly pull his hair, he snapped his eyes open and looked around but to poor David's shock he saw nothing, then he felt it, hair in his hand. His right hand had just pulled his hair.
When you put me on I got in, and now you and I HAVE to get along, you hear me? just tell everyone it's a cool accessory or some sick body mod thing. We're connected at the forearm now so we need to start getting along.
David felt the hand move over his skull and take hold, making him nod as he remained dumbfounded by this. He was possessed! What was this!? why had it chosen him!?
you put the glove on you shmuck, you put on the last damn vestige of my existence, the last sliver of what was truly ME! when I died a part of me was wrought, PAINFULLY wrought, into that godamn metal hand! It wasn't pleasant, How would YOU like it if someone took you, put you into a fire until you were a glowing semi liquid, then hammered you a bunch of times and put your smashed, slammed, squished, warped personage onto a mold to turn you into a freaking glove?
"T-that'd suck... y-yeah..." his voice came slowly and shakily
HAH! Glad we can agree, now you go out there and pretend like everything's normal, you got a godamn guardian angel of sorts living in your head now... hahahahaha!
The skull faded from view and David looked around, the alley was there, nothing lurking in it but him. He ran the clawed hand through his blonde hair, then got up and slowly walked out of the alley, he moved slowly, not quite ready to rejoin the throngs of people, he buried that armored hand into his pocket as deep as he could and walked down the street.

Luca was on her way back from work at the network and to do that she had to cross District 3. A district she didn't care to spend a lot of time in but it was still miles better than the district she was raised in, obviously. Luca was in the back of her limo, relaxing herself with a glass of wine and listening to classical music as the limo moved down the street inbetween traffic. The morning had started off with satisfaction then transcend over to irritation with an uninvited guest inside her house but by the end everything was back to the way it should be. Just fabulous.
As the drive continue Luca's attention went to the window, and then to a man that was walking outside. He was cute and had potential, although any attractive male Luca encountered had potential, few actually lived up to that potential. Deciding to rid of her current boredom she told the driver to slow down, around the same speed as the man walking nearby. It was going to screw up traffic but she didn't care, she was rich. Luca rolled down her window so she could call out to the man, a gentle smile gracing her lips as she spoke.
"Excuse me, sir! You look like you could use a lift. Need a ride?"

David turned his head and looked at the limo. His jaw dropped a little, he was dumbfounded, The woman's beautiful features, her hair almost like a serene pool of the purest water, and she was offering him a ride in her limo. He regained some form of composure, started to speak, cleared his throat to expel the obvious cracking of his voice, then tried again.
"H-hello. Yes, Please." He started to walk towards the car, then moved around to the other side and opened the door for himself, trying not to draw attention to himself, keeping his right hand concealed in his pocket as best as he could.
Daaaaaaaaammmmmnnnn... See? right after meeting "face to face" I'm already pulling in the babes for you! I'm a chick magnet! The voice echoed in his skull, only his ears could pick up that voice but he still glanced over at his benefactor, seeing if she reacted to that echo in his mind.
"Thanks for the ride."

Luca smiled as he got in the limo happy to see that he didn't refuse out of pride or an equally as annoying reason a man would have. Luke would realize that the woman wasn't reacting to the voice because she couldn't hear it. Luca told the driver to step on the gas as she looked over to the man.
"Where you headed?"

"I... I was heading to..." His voice gave out and he squirmed a bit, his hand shifting in his pocket, he pulled his sleeve down a bit, still trying to conceal that metal hand of his. He looked back to Luca. "I was just heading home, I live at..." He gave her the address, somehow relieved that the voice seemed to only be in his head, otherwise she would've noticed it's comments. She's quite a looker, check her out for me... Dave found his eyes disobeying his own impulses and flicking down, taking in the form of Luca, Scrumptious! Wonderful! Dazzling! mmmm If I was more than a hand... but a hand is enough to explore a body that beautiful... Dave blinked a few times, shocked at how... lecherous this possession was. "I'm... I'm David by the way... David Forson"

Luca caught his eyes staring at her and that sweet smile on her face grew a little. It was concealing a far more devilish grin that wanted to reveal itself as she could tell the man was already being drawn in by her beauty but her smile came off innocent. Luca have been playing this game for a long time and she managed to make what would have been a forced innocent smile look natural and only increase her sex appeal as she conversed with the object of her desire. Luca took the address from the man and then replied by introducing herself.
"I'm Luca, Luca Valentine. It's a pleasure to meet you Mister Forson or can I call you David? Would you like a drink? I have wine."

"It's a pleasure to meet you Luca. Please!" He almost gasped at his surprise, a voice that wasn't entirely his own... It was his voice but the tone, the way the voice sounded, like a new player sat at his harp and struck different chords. He cleared his throat and smiled, trying to hide this fear clinging to his soul like the parasite within his mind. "David, or Dave, your choice Miss Valentine." He squirmed, the hand in his pocket starting to drum it's fingers against his leg, wanting freedom from the obscurity he had forced on it. hehehehe... that grin's hiding something, and she's offering you booze. Looks like you got in the FUN limo! That red skull once more came over his vision, moving closer to him, he felt his pulse race and struggled to keep his breathing steady.

"Oh please call me Luca."
Luca readjusted herself in the limo seat, crossing her bare legs which were now present for David to see as she rearranged her short skirt after settling herself in, making herself more comfortable as her smile never faded away.
"David. That's a nice name. Oh I don't believe I got an answer before. Would you like something to drink? I have water too if you don't drink alcohol."

"Thank you, Luca." His eyes, once more against his will, flitted down over her legs. mmmmm... I'm a leg hand... It was best to just ignore that. Don't think about it too much. "Wine? I-Of course, Miss Valentine." The emphasis that sudden change in tone took again, making a point of "ms. valentine" was something that made David swallow and smile, this damn... thing-
Call me Joshua, you'll find out why later.
This Joshua had started to play a dangerous game that he felt himself getting swept up in. He gave a smile, it was an odd one, a mix of a nervous smile and a confident, predatory grin, the two personalities vying for control secretly.

((Yeah, sorry for the long wait.))
Luca pretended as if she didn't notice his eyes staring down at the spot she wanted them to, her legs as she took out a glass of red wine and handed it over to David before getting herself a glass. Oh how she so loved to play with boys like David, and from experience the play usually ended in the same spot within in her house. Luckily for the male he didn't look like he had a big fortune that she would gladly take after marrying and killing off via summoned thunderstorm like the last man she seduced for money.
"Where are you headed to, David?"

"Where am I headed? oh I was-I wasn't really going anywhere, mind if we just enjoy the car-ride for a bit, and the wine, Miss Valentine?"
David's mind felt like it just clicked off, like someone shut off the light and locked the door, and despite it being his voice he heard the unmistakably different tones, he heard this "Joshua" snatching away the driver seat. He pulled the armored hand out of his pocket, slowly it moved up and gently, with a beautiful single note, took the wine glass and sipped it.
"I haven't had wine in... months." It had been time immeasurable Since he had a mouth, and now he has one again, and as his eyes moved up to Luca's he made up his mind. He was certainly going to put that mouth to good use. He slowly tasted the wine, it was expensive but nothing special, Joshua wondered if Luca would be the same...

"Not at all. I have some time to kill before I have to return to the manor."
Luca's eyes were then taken in by the armored hand the man used to grab the wine so he could begin to drink from its contents. Well there's something you didn't see every day.
"Interesting hand."
Luca decided to make that the next subject of discussion while continuing this small seduction before taking a sip out of her own wine glass.

"funny story, that..."
"Joshua", as he was calling himself, recognized the signs. David didn't but Joshua did. This girl was interested, she was considering him. David would've been having a normal day at this point, probably at his job right now, but this hand of his... it had changed everything. His eyes once again flicked to Luca's face, Joshua leaned back and swirled the glass of red wine. David had to admit that today had a rocky start but this could turn out better.
"I found it in a garbage heap outside my house, and kept in, wondering why someone would throw away such a really nice glove..." He swirled his wine a little more, giving a small smile to Luca. David could feel Joshua's growing anticipation, felt Joshua continue to hide it. "It fit quite well when I put it on, almost feels like I'm not wearing it, kinda like I'm wearing nothing at all..." He switched cups as he spoke, then stretched his fingers, letting the glove flex and turn a little, admiring it a bit.
"The wine is quite nice, Luca."

Luca didn't believe the story one bit but she would play along for now. Where, how, when or why regarding the glove didn't matter to her. Luca's only interest in the moment was the man wearing the glove, not the glove itself. There was something different about this one and that she could investigate later.
"I'm glad you enjoy the wine. I only buy the best around here, nothing less. Is this your first time in a limo, Joshua?"
As she asked the question Luca subtly scooted a little closer to him, smiling kindly to conceal her lustful intent this evening.

"Why yes, it is." He sipped the wine once more, then finished it off. He leaned back in the car and looked at her. "I haven't indulged in the finer things in life for a while, Miss Valentine." Interesting choice of word, indulge... "Thank you" He leaned back a little, watching as she moved towards him. She was telegraphing it, every move, the way she held herself, she couldn't resist him. He moved that metal hand of his slowly when she scooted closer. He angled his head down a bit, smiling and looking upwards slightly at Luca. David heard Joshua in the back of his head.
My turn.
He took the wine bottle and poured himself a fresh glass, but he instead softly put his metal finger gently under her chin, remaining close to her. He slowly brought the glass to his lips, whetting her lips with his cup. "I'm quite enjoying the ride" He leaned close to her ear, pulling the cup away, he grinned and whispered into her ear. "I hope you're enjoying it too..." He pulled back slowly, brushing his cheek against hers as he did, then swirling his wine glass in his hand, his face in front of hers.
