It took her many years to get here but through all the hardships of the harsh upbringing living in District Four, things were finally paying off as Luca's foot slip into the warm water of her hot tub. Luca let out a pleasing sigh as sat down in the hot tub, covering her body was a two piece black swim suit and in her right hand was a glass of champagne with the bottle resting next to the hot tub. Across from her in the hot tub was a man in his 30s, six feet tall with a nicely toned body she admired. They were celebrating the success of YBS (Yesabelle Broadcast Station) which she now owned, among many other things, after the tragic death of her husband Drake White. Luca had her eye on this one for a while and now was the perfect opportunity to make her move. "To YBS," said Luca holding up her glass. "To YBS," he replied. They lightly knocked their glasses together and drank. Luca could feel his eyes exploring her body as she smiled sweetly toward him before moving her glass next to the champagne bottle. Her associate wasn't shy about making his move as he scooted over to her side of the hot tub and placed an arm around her. "You are so beautiful," said the man. Luca smile grew into a smirk as she trailed a finger down his chest. "So forward." "Am I moving too fast?" "Not at all." Luca soon felt his lips touching hers, his arms wrapping around her body and hands running down her back as the man deepened the kiss. All the Widow had to do now was submit. **** Luca woke up the next morning in the arms of her lover for last night. She smiled devilishly at her latest conquest before trailing her fingers one last time across his chest before getting out of bed and into the shower. After the shower Luca slipped into a bath robe and began washing her hair while listening to the radio. During all of this the man was being shown the door and didn't get as much as a goodbye kiss. Not that he'd care, being a man after all. Luca got dressed in a $5,000 short sleeve white dress shirt, a $10,000 black skirt, $15,000 black suit jacket, because she was a businesswoman that had a reputation to upkeep, and a $25,000 pair of black high heels on her feet. The gold earrings, necklace and bracelet on her right arm naturally cost more than even those but it was all nickles and dimes to her thanks to Drake's fortune. Luca began to wonder what her parents would think, if they were alive that is. The money she spent on clothes alone could feed an entire family in the Poor Ward, but that could be said for a lot of people that lived here. Next stop, dinning room. The walls and floors of the dinning room were the same color as her silverware, a long table which outstretched most of the room lied in the center as Luca walked all the way to the end and sat down as servants put on her bid and prepared her breakfast for her. "Paper," she said coolly. Moments later the morning newspaper was in her hand and she was skimming it over in one hand while she had a servant trim the nails on her other hand. "Let see. Middle-class whining about the rich again. More poor people die. Ah here we go; VBS hits ten years milestone, now with new owner Luca Valentine at the helm." Luca continued to read on from there until she smelled her breakfast coming from the kitchen. Moving the paper aside she looked at the three pancakes on top of each other covered nicely in syrup, then over to the eggs which caused her to frown. "The eggs are wrong. Fix it." Luca's eyes returned to the paper as her servants took back the eggs. She wasn't going to eat until everything she wanted was on the table.

"So. Many. Shinies."
Sasha planted her hands and face against one of the many windows of the manor. Her breath fogged it, and her childish nature just couldn't resist; she drew a Christmas tree with her forefinger and a few boxes beneath to represent presents.
"Must. Get. Shines."
The changling simply walked right through the wall and into the house only to find there was an overwhelming amount of shiny objects. Her jaw slowly dropped while she spun in a circle to take everything in! How on earth can she take so many things in one trip?!
Uh oh, someone's coming! Sasha shifted into a small, cute, fluffy, white kitten and got on her back. The servant just walked right past her, though tossed a quick look since she was purring unnaturally loud. Well, at least she bought it!
"Meow!"
Idiot, Sasha thought, animals can't talk.

Luca was still very interested into the article about her network until she heard a sound coming from the other room. Luca put the newspaper down and began to listen for the sound she heard just seconds ago. Meow! But instead a meow would be what Luca heard while her servants came back with her eggs. "Your eggs are ready just the way you like them, Ms. Valentine." "Was that a cat?" "I beg your par---?" "Shh!"
Luca stood up from her seat and began to follow the sound she heard. There were no pets in this house for a reason, and that's because pets are messy and Luca didn't want any messing up her house or her expensive wardrobe. Luca comes out into the hallway and much to her own surprise she sees a fluffy white cat on the floor meowing and you can see a rather disgusted look on her face as her eyes narrowed over it. Immediately Luca calls on her servants and four girls come out surrounding Luca and looking down at the cat. "How did this thing get in here?" asked Luca. "We don't know," said one of the servants. "Well then... Get rid of it and find out!" The servants merely looked at each other before they began to approach the cat.

Uh oh! Looks like it's time to transform into evil cat!
While they approached, Sasha's fur turned black, her canines grew in length, a cape sprouted from around her neck and she stood up on her back legs. Imagine the looks the servants must have worn on seeing something out-of-the-norm like this!
Her left paw grabbed the cape and held it around her, further giving off the overly cliched Dracula appearance. Hissing and glaring, she backed away until...Poof! she transformed into a bat with a cat's face.
Things were only going to get more awkward from here.

The servants froze in place when the cat's fur began to change color. Luca didn't move from her spot while she watched on from behind the other servants. It wouldn't be long until the halls were echoing screams as the cat's fur changed black, grew bigger and a cape became visible so by the time it had turned into the bat the servants have pissed themselves for the most part and went running through the halls looking for the exit.
Luca remained standing in the same place and staring towards the bat, looking very annoyed at the display that have just occurred right in front of her eyes. As shown by the servants your average person would be freaked out by this, but Luca have seen, well stranger might not be the correct word because this was pretty up there on the strange scale, but Luca has certainly seen strange things before this incident. "Who are you?" What didn't need explaining. Shape shifter was her first thought since she didn't know anything else that could change so drastically on a whim.

"I'm going to suck your blooooooooooood!" Sasha flew about the servant's heads while making her little bat noises to further spook them. Rumors will spread about a cute little cat transforming into a blood sucking vermin, and chances of them trusting anything with a sweet face is unlikely. Her work here is done!
Who are you?
Or not. Sasha stopped flying and perched atop the nearest chair to observe Luca with her beady, black eyes. Why wasn't she running away screaming like the rest of the servants? Did her kind have a few run ins with her?
In the blink of an eye, she returned to her normal form, though smaller in stature so she can remain. "I'm Sasha Evens!" The changling stood up and gave her a salute, "And I shall vanquish all --ooooh, that's so shiny." Sasha eyed a silver fork on the table and, for the time being, forgot about Luca.

This being possessed all the mentality of a child, easily distracted and lacking in maturity however Luca's instincts were telling her to be cautious with this one and so she was. "Ms. Sasha Evens, do you normally barge into other people's houses and scare their servants?" Usually Luca would have the police called and arrest such an intruder but Luca doubted the police force here would know how to deal with such an interesting character that had arrived.
"Ah yes the shiny. The object of your desire like a beacon will glow... My spell lured by it's fire and you, lost in it's flow." Suddenly the shiny fork that had captured Sasha's attention was glowing brighter than ever, looking to attract the child like a fly to a porch light.

"Naw, I don't normally do this," Sasha replied, but her eyes were still on that shiny fork, "I just got bored and--it's so, so shiny."
Then, it started to glow. Sasha became mesmerized by how beautiful it was and grasped the object of her desire to see it up close. How was it doing this?! Did she eat something that decided to manifest itself in the form of this godly looking utensil? Maybe it was the glazed donuts. Or the orange juice.
"Sh-Sh-Shiny..."
Oh, yes. She loved the shiny.

Good. Sasha was distracted by the bright lights now coming from the fork and there wasn't anybody around to see what Luca was about to do next. Taking full advantage of the distraction her spell posed Luca brought up her right hand and produced a fireball from her palm, just powerful enough to set this woman ablaze so she could go back to her breakfast. Luca pulled back her right arm and then snapped it forward, her palm shooting the fireball forward in Sasha's direction.

"I sense a disturbance in the forc--AAAAAAAH!" Sasha dropped the utensil and began to run around in circles, the flames rising ever higher on the poor, surprised changling. Embers fell from her singed hair and clothing; still, she kept running and screaming at the top of her lungs.
"I'M ON FIRE! I'M ON FIRE! I'M ON FIRE! I'M ON FIRE! PUT IT OUT! PUT IT OUT! PUT IT OUT! PUT IT OUT!"
Sasha stops dead in her tracks, the fires having stopped and falls into the carpet face first. The girl was still and ash flaked off her remains. Was she dead? Well, her blond hair suddenly spilling out from her no longer singed head is enough to say "No". Wit.hin mere seconds all remains of burns had vanished
"HAHAHAHA! GOT'CHA! You think fire can kill me like that? Huh? HUH?! BWAHAHAHAHAHHAHA!"

Luca smiled at the sight of this girl burning like she should. After all there was a big day planned for the Billionaire and she didn't have time to play around with this girl, so a quick and well executed kill was in order. But before Ms. Valentine could enjoy this victory the girl made it clear that it would take more than a well crafted fire spell. Luca approached her, the way Sasha laughed was obnoxious but so was everything about this girl.
The Seductress pressed her right foot on the back of the child, her heel doing the rest to keep her grounded. "Listen. I don't have the time nor the desire to play with you today. I want you to leave before it's you whose vanquished. Do you understand?"

"Mrrrrrph! Dis fwor tastes la-ike ca-pet!" (Translation: This floor tastes like carpet) Sasha's limbs flailed from where she was pinned, causing nothing but a blur. The "child" squirmed, thrashed, and did everything humanely possible to escape from the vicious woman's heel! But then again, since when does a shape-shifter settle for "human" methods? A mischevious grin replaced her frown.
Sasha's entire body just bloated up until she was some giant balloon, and very quickly too! Her fleshy-looking form bounced around the entire room four times, spun in the center, and down she landed on the ground in her regular appearance. Her hands rested against her hips and she gave her a very, very smug grin.
"Ya know, I have one thing to say ta ya, lady."
Her arm took on the form of a...cloud? Could things get any stranger with this thing? The limb is pointed at the crazy, heeled lady and lightning begins to crackle over the surface,
"TASTE MA THUNDA, BITCH!"
And a bolt rushes straight for her, only to miss, hit against one of the mirrors and start flying all around the house.
"...oopsies."

"Amateur." Luca's eyes became as black as coal, dark storm clouds covered the blue sky outside and blocked out the sun causing darkness to fall over the manor as thunder roared outside and lighting flashed across what was to be clear skies all afternoon. The wind picked up to such an intensity that they were able to blow in the windows, shards of glass flying everywhere as Luca remained standing in the same place glaring at the intruder. The rouge lighting bolt flew out of the broken window as a lighting bolt of Luca's own doing struck outside right next to the shattered window on the right of the two females. "Last chance to leave."

Sasha reeeeeeeeeally thought about this. No, really, she was. Funny thing is, she didn't look frightened or entertained--she was bored of this. If all she's gonna do is try to attack her constantly during her pursuit of the shines, then there's no point. After having smacked her lips, Sasha said:
"Okee. But before I go, I must as you one thing that you can only answer yourself!"
The shapeshifter's visage displayed a sense of seriousness, for once.
"What if the world was made of donuts?"
And with a loud "POOF" she vanishes.
