Isthia thanked the woman, quickly making her way to the training room. A cursory examination of the room revealed crash mats piled in a cupboard, worn lockers lining one side of the room with scratched out spaces for name tags, an extensive collection of pristine weapons, and benches lining a wall. Taking a seat on one of the benches, Isthia waited until the door opened, raising her hand and greeting the people outside it with a simple "Hello."

Claus cleared his throat and smiled widely at Revnoir's direction before looking around. "My name is Claus Rosenthal. I'm apart of Squad 7 and that girl you are hiding behind, I know her." He then turned his gaze then Kirsa and sent a wink in her direction.


She stood there for a moment, blinking before looking at Revnoir then the other girl. "Uhm... Just because you know me, doesn't mean I know you."

Revnoir looked at Kirsa and Claus both in turn, his eyes narrowed cautiously. "Is he your stalker, Kirsa? Is that why he's here, did he join Weave just to stalk you? If so, I'll deal with it," he said in an odd way. He sounded as if he were protecting some maiden in need, though Revnoir seemed to be the only maiden-esque person in the room let's be honest.

"Thank.. you?" Kirsa replied, looking back at Revnoir who was standing BEHIND her. Was he going to actually do something about it or was he bluffing? With how cute he is, she felt more inclined to protect him from Claus. But, it was cute that he was trying to protect her. Kirsa let out a small giggle at the thought and looked back at Claus. "If you are looking for your Squad. Could you not make so much noise? You startled a lot of the recruits."


Claus looked around and stared at the door he kicked down. The handle was hanging slightly by a wire as the door barely stood by a hinge. Maybe he was a little too rough. Just a little. "Well, uhm... I'll do that next time. But do you really not remember me, Kirsa? Ahhh.. Maman and Papan will be sad."


She froze upon those words, her expression becoming sour as her hand gripped the ruffles of her sleeves tightly. "Wh.. What did you say?" 


"Maman and Papan." Claus repeated.


Kirsa grit her teeth, her head now hanging as her small began to shake softly.

Krystal handed Nathan two fun size bags.


"So if our leader never shows up... *crunch, crunch* Are we gonna flip a coin or something? See who replaces him?"


@inFamousCheese

Nathan shrugged. "I don't know. They probably have some protocol for it, or other fancy government words," he said, tossing a handful of the candy in his mouth.
 
Revnoir noticed Kirsa becoming more and more uncomfortable, and seemingly enraged at each and every word that spewed out of the tall man's mouth. Maman and Papan, those were similar to the words Maman and Papa, french for Mom and Dad. He put two and two together and figured Claus must be talking about either of their parents. Or both of theirs...? Were they long lost siblings or something...? Revnoir had no idea, but obviously Kirsa wasn't enjoying their conversation. Roy, though, also took notice, and as Revnoir had been teaching him French, also picked up on the foreign words. "I think that's enough, Claus was it? I don't quite understand your relationship with Kirsa, but you're making a member of my Squad uncomfortable at best. I'm going to have to ask you to stop," he said with a surprisingly sharp tone. Revnoir watched Roy carefully, knowing not to say anything witty or sarcastic to Claus as Roy might turn his displeasure on him. Roy looked extremely serious now, and seemed to have a deep annoyance for people who bothered his Squad.

He looked at the woman, annoyed. He was about to go on a mission and was talking to his friends when it was abruptly stopped because he was being called to the training room.


"Hello" He said with a cold voice "why have you called us here?"

Kirsa stood still for a moment and was silent. Suddenly, she lunged towards Claus as she ripped his body from the Shadow threads and pinned him tightly to the ground. Her eyes stared at him widely as she broke out into a malicious cackle. "Huee..~ You should have learned to stop, BOY." Kirsa screamed at him with a wide smile. Blood red threads formed into long spikes and stabbed into the ground near Claus. The spikes restrained the giant to the ground as a few pierced his skin. 


He gasped from the abrupt pin to the ground, groaning softly as he peered up at the deranged Kirsa. Claus gazed up at her. Her hair drooped down her shoulders and brushed against him lightly. There was a subtle scent of her shampoo that made him sigh softly. Slowly, Claus reached up and cupped her cheek as if wavered by her sporadic behavior. "Es ist okay..(It's okay in German.)" He whispered in a honey-like voice, caressing her cheek with his thumb. 


The gentleness only seemed to make her more angry as the small girl yanked up Claus to her, pushing a few of her gem spikes further into his flesh. "I told you to stop, didn't I?!" Kirsa shrieked with another maniacal laugh. Despite her angered state, her shaking frame and empty eyes seemed to be pleading for warm attention.

Roy frowned deeply as he watched Kirsa tear Revnoir's Threads from the wall and slam Claus to the ground. Revnoir had flinched from the jolt of pain caused from the snapped Threads, but Roy paid no attention to it and took a couple steps closer to Kirsa. Each step made a neat metal tapping sound, very unlike the muffled noise they caused normally. "Kirsa who said I didn't mean you had to stop, either?" He asked, though he knew that Kirsa wasn't quite herself. After all, he was sent a notice that she would be pretty unique. He took one more long stride before grabbing Kirsa by the back of the collar and throwing her across the room. There seemed to be coils around his arm made of his Threads, having given him the ability to use more strength than a normal human - an exoskeleton of sorts.


Revnoir hurried over to Claus once Kirsa had been thrown off of him, and he severed the Threads keeping him down with a small knife he kept in his boot. He ended up helping the tall man up, though he had a bit of difficulty as Claus was considerably bigger than him. He brought him over to a corner of the room where Roy wouldn't end up throwing Kirsa into them.


The Fire Weaver approached the girl he just threw into a wall with his arms crossed and the coil around his arm having disappeared. "You just get here and you cause trouble? What made you think it was alright to attack other Weavers, even if they're acting like Claus was?"


"Roy, you're not acting any better than she is. Just because we're running late doesn't mean you can attack her and get angry with her. You read the report, she doesn't seem to be able to control those personality switch sorts of things." Djuna stood in the entrance of the lobby, her arms crossed and her face revealing her discontentment with Roy's actions. She may not be the official Leader of Squad One, but she was more or less the one giving orders when Roy wasn't. After all, even Roy gets overly-angry sometimes, but Djuna doesn't. At least, nobody's seen her get angry.


Roy growled and went to go sit on one of the sofas lining the walls of the lobby, trying to cool down. Djuna went over and stood a foot or so away from Kirsa. "Calm down, yeah? There's no reason to act up like this, so let's just get our group together and let's go out on our mission. After all, we have people waiting on us, and Reapers waiting to be killed," she said with a warm smile.

Alexis enters the room and immediately lifts her book to her face and reads. Now was not the time for people, especially while they were fighting. She would stand against the wall and read. No one would bother her then, she looks to her left and then to her right to make sure no one is approaching her before planting her back to the wall and reading.


@Umbra Regalia
 
Revnoir noticed Alexis show up with a book, and sighed. He shuffled over, trying not to catch Roy's attention as he got close enough to the new Weaver to speak to her. "You probably don't wanna read here... If you're looking for your Squad I can give you directions to the front office, but you really don't wanna stay here," he said quietly, giving her an apologetic smile and a sympathetic look in his eyes. He felt bad that the girl had to walk in on so much drama right out of the gate.

"U-Uhm...! Well, I'm just worried it'll get worse and if it does, you might get caught in the crossfire. I'm sure the secretary will be able to direct you to somewhere, well, quieter? It might be easier to read when people aren't around, right?" He said, a little taken aback by her unexpected rudeness. He really didn't mean to be offensive, and he didn't quite understand why she seemed to angry at him, but he hoped he hadn't said anything rude or anything.

Alexis shrugs and continues to flick through the pages "if they start throwing furniture I'll shield myself with diamond threads. If it gets really bad I'll use you as a shield, you look like you're used to taking beatings." Alexis speaks with bitter truth, she found that people tended to leave her alone after speaking to her.

As she was thrown, a shield of her gems surrounded her body and protected her from getting hurt. However the immense strength of the fire weaver cracked her threads, forcing her threads to unravel and send her tumbling into a wall. Kirsa let out a soft groan before standing up. "Who the hell asked you to interfere.. " She growled under her breath before sending a cold glare in his direction. 


Claus pulled himself away from Revnoir, patting his head. "It's okay. I'm used to it. You just got to calm her down." He limped over towards Kirsa and suddenly pulled her into his arms, rubbing her back softly. "Shh.. It's okay.."


Kirsa began to punch at his sides, trying hard to escape from Claus however stopped as her strength could not match his. She only growled softly as she was leaning against his chest. "Let me go!!" She shouted, but much softer than before. 


"It's okay.. you're safe now." He repeated, leaning his head on her shoulder. The warm touch of the man began to calm her down. Her deranged state slowly disappeared before Kirsa looked around. 


"What.. What happened.." She shakily asked, now gripping onto Claus' white shirt. The girl looked around to see the remains of her destruction and bewildered bystanders. 


"It happened again, but it's okay. It was my fault. Just calm down." Claus responded, now running his hand through her hair. Tears began to form in her eyes as her body shook even more.  She looked around to see Revnoir and Roy. Roy obviously seemed very angry. Was she going to be kicked off the squad? Didn't the higher authorities inform them about this? More tears streamed down her face from the thought. With the strength she had left, Kirsa pushed Claus away and ran off to the barracks. 


@Umbra Regalia
 
Revnoir gave up on the eternally unhappy bookworm and turned to watch Kirsa struggle with Claus before calming down surprisingly quickly. He watched silently, taking a step away from Alexis and letting his gaze follow Kirsa out of the room. He then turned to Roy, who looked absolutely pissed. He noticed Revnoir looking at him and let out a tired sigh. "Go try to calm her down. Bring this idiot with you, looks like he knows how to calm the kid down. I'll go tell Aaron to send someone else to do the mission..." He growled, standing up and stomping off - the metal sound coming from his shoes still present. As he walked, there was an iron sheet under his heel. Normally, he'd walk without hitting the iron on the ground, but now he was too pissed off to care if he let his heel hit the floor.


Revnoir looked over at Claus, and sighed. "Let's go...? I'm sure she's in the barracks," he said exhaustedly. He grabbed Claus by the sleeve gently and led him off to the barracks - off to find Kirsa, it seemed.

Alexis watches Revnoir and sighs with relief, she snaps her book closed as Roy walks away and grits her teeth "Metal plates on boots? Who even needs that? Too many distractions here." She walks to the door and stops for a second. The scar on her forearm begins to hurt but she ignores as she begins thinking You could just leave now, you owe these people nothing. They gave you weapons to survive out there so you can leave now, what's stopping you? Truth be told Alexis didn't know what was stopping her, she had left her parents to die without feeling a shred of guilt so why couldn't she just leave Weave? In all honesty it was probably because it was refreshing to see people fighting for something bigger than themselves. Alexis was bored and this place provided some semblance of entertainment, even if they did constantly distract her from her book. She wondered if they had a piano, she could have asked Revnoir but she decided against it since people don't tend to talk to people who tell them that they're only good at being human shields. Alexis wondered if they knew that she was a sociopath, she didn't want to tell them since last time anyone found out they had beaten her and cut her forearm open. She glares at the scar and becomes aware of the fact that she's been stood in the doorway for a little too long.

Stumbling, Kirsa quickly hid herself in the comfort of her blanket. Her small frame shook softly as she sobbed into her sleeves. Roy looked furious. She had done it again and everyone saw it. There was no hiding it now. Kirsa let out a small whimper before squeezing her eyes shut tightly. Maman.. Papan.. Slowly, she managed to open her eyes. Her vision was blurred by the constant flow of her tears. What was she to do? She had to apologize to their leader but was way too afraid. Why did she even let it take over?! Stupid.. I'm so stupid! Kirsa thought, hitting the mattress hard. 


Kirsa.. You dumb shit. You've done it now. Not only have you forgotten about Claus but you made yourself look like a threat infront of EVERYONE. What'chu gonna do now? They might kill you if you do that again.~


"Shut up.. Th-They won't.. I'm a project. I'm important to some extent." She whimpered to herself.


Seriously? You really think that's going to stop them? You really are retarded. Not only were you a disappointment to Roy, but you were a disappointment to your parents. You couldn't save them then, what makes you think you can save people now? Kirsa, baby, you'd be more useful dead. 


Kirsa gripped her hair tightly, letting out a suddenly scream into the dark room. Ripping the blanket off, the girl stared blankly at the cieling. She panted softly from mental and physical exhaustion, dropping her body onto the bed. 


Claus limped behind Revnoir, a smile painted on his face. "Will do. Thank you for coming. But I will apologize in Kirsa's place." He commented as they walked through the hall. "She doesn't mean to become.. like that. It's just the trauma. It was a lot worse back then. Plus, it was my fault for mentioning about her parents. That is a major trigger. All you gotta do to calm her down is to hug her and reassure her. Kirsa really is a sweet girl." He let out a subtle sigh before cupping a wound on his side, dragging his leg behind. When the two of them were younger, Kirsa's breakdowns were much worse. Her triggers were more sensitive and was often found nearly killing people.


"It's... all because of those Reapers, man." Claus started, stopping in his tracks. "They killed Kirsa's family in their home. She had such a happy life. I nearly died saving her and escaping the town.. I know its kinda stupid to have a 'bersek' because of Reapers killing her family. But it's traumatic and everyone has different reactions to it. Especially to have to witness all that blood and gore.." His eyes slowly drifted down and stared at the ground. Despite being such a loud goof, Claus cared about Kirsa more than anything. It was the whole reason he joined Weave. Kirsa wanted to join, so he followed her.


"Anyways, let's go find her." He said with a smile and began to walk again. 


@Umbra Regalia
 
"Mhm, Reapers tend to do that to people... It's sad to see, but not many of us are completely unscathed by the attack. Even if we're not covered in scars from head to toe, we're still affected," he said, a bit out of character as he usually wasn't one to say something so 'deep,' "don't worry, Claus. Nothing bad is going to happen to Kirsa because of what she did, Roy is probably just gonna find her some help to maybe keep it from getting too bad. Though... Something bad might happen if you don't patch up those wounds... You should bandage it up to at least keep yourself from bleeding out. The wounds don't seem too serious, so I'm sure you'll be fine as long as you go get them cleaned and such later once you've got time." A wound by Threads wasn't exactly as bad as some make it seem. It's not as if Threads carry bacteria normally, as once they appear they're completely sterile. Though, if they touch something, like anything else, they'll become dirty and can cause a nasty infection. In this case, Claus should be fine for a bit.


Besides, Revnoir wasn't about to go calm Kirsa down on his own. That wasn't something he was all that great at, as Roy was usually the person to comfort others or even Djuna. Revnoir was always just the comic relief, or the silent shoulder to cry on. Or the human shield, as Alexis had pointed out moments before... Though, Revnoir liked to keep that one off the list. For obvious reasons, of course. I mean, who would want to admit that they're a huma shield? Not many.


It wasn't long before Revnoir and Claus both reached the female barracks, and Revnoir led Claus off to the door where Kirsa had learned would keep her separated from the outside world - the door leading to her new room that she shared with Djuna, the only other female member of Squad One. Revnoir took the initiative of knocking, starting out quite quiet but by the third knock it had grown to a normal level of strength used. He waited for a response, but he could guess what kind of words she'd throw at him through the door.

Alexis begins wandering the hallways once more, she had to find something to do before she got too bored. She begins playing with her threads and stares for a while at each individual one. Each thread was a different gemstone "maybe the appcalypse never happened, maybe I'm dreaming. This can't be possible."
