Fandom RWBY: Adventures in Vale [No Longer Accepting]

theManCalledSting said:
"50 Siblings?! Well that's a rather big family..." Mel was surprised by what she learned, she knew that faunus tend to have more children than humans but she never knew it could get that large of a number.
"How about you, I know you have adoptive parents but you don't talk about your siblings much, any even smaller versions of you running about that I should know about?"


"Well, no... there's no mini-Mels running around when I was growing up, I was... well, one of a kind... but I did have someone who was a lot like Lilith. She was my "Big Sister" and my best friend growing up," Mel said remembering the good ol' days of her time with her adoptive family.


Mel tried to use the chopsticks to grab the dumplings, "Uhh, Beo can you help? I can't seem to get a good grip with these!"
"Not by blood remember, being in a tribe means that well every other kid is a sibling, every adult is your parent, sure your blood parents and siblings are closer but Mom was my only genetic family," She smiled nostalgically," I guess its hard to describe when you grew up outside it but it was nice." She giggled at how Mel mentioned Lilith, "I can't imagine Lil'lil being anybody's big anything." she giggled thinking of her teammates, height deficiency. "Here,' She said grasping Mel's hand gently and carefully putting the chop sticks in her fingers, "You need hold them like that then grab things like this, and she gently pinched the chopsticks together in her hads around a bun. Now go ahead and try it. She said letting go of Mel's hand, and watching eagerly.
 
Sova placed down the menu he's been just idly staring at during this time, just crossing his hands behind his body and taking a small look around. Quite the hostility that was running amock, for probable very trivial reasons, but reasons nonetheless. Some, gang member who was just slumping around as well just sat there, but it wasn't any of his concern if he had to bring any. So from here he just simply just turned around and began walking over to the doors. "I have some stuff that I wanted to look at, Ill see you all another time." He says giving a tip of his hat, before just up and walking out, leaving off from what he had there. Rounding off around the building and walking off to explore whatever parts of vale that might catch his interest.

Mel blushed the moment Beo grasped her hand.


The Moment Beo let go of her hands and return the chopsticks to her, Mel gave her a warm smile, "Thanks, fearless Leader."


Mel thankfully was a fast learner, after a few failed attempts at grabbing a dumpling with said chopsticks she finally got the hang of it.


"Look, Beo! I did it!" Mel said very excitedly, before she popped the bun in her mouth.


Mel's face lit up as she savored the flavor of the dumpling, she swallowed the heavenly dumpling.


"Oh my god, Beo... This stuff's amazing!" she stated before "stuffing her face" with more dumplings.
 



  • "Yeah, no, you can take it. It was waaay bigger than I thought it was going to be, so all yours, buddy." She slid Miguel the remaining part of her sandwich, and returned to her lemonade. "Besides, you seem pretty excited about it, and who am I to deny your great love of sandwiches, or something like that..."


    She gave a small frown as Sova walked out. He had come in, looked at the menu, and then just left. Maybe he had just come to pay his courtesies. She couldn't blame him for not wanted to stick around. "I'll see you around on campus!" Now it was just her, Herb, Argen, Miguel... and Saffron.


    She felt bad about how she had snapped at him, sure, but her pride wasn't going to let her apologize just yet. After all, he had made an insensitive, sexist comment, and while she might have reacted poorly, she had reacted in the only sensible way a good woman would.


    That small little insecure voice in her mind told her that she could do what Mel would have done and just cried until someone made her feel better, but she wasn't about to do that. She was better than that.

Argen sighs and places his head into his right hand. His leader was a damn idiot. You never say that to a woman. Even if it's true or even if you have the right to. After all, if anyone deserved it it's Lazuli. That girl had some form of rod up her rectum and even Argen couldn't deny that. He even took the step forward to apologize but she ignored it anyway. The knight eyebrows set in controlled anger. Another reason why he has his head in his hand. He didn't want his comrades to see his expression. Not to mention Hansi seemed to be having a hard enough time.


"Hansi, my lady? Would you do me the honor ordering for me? I've never eaten anywhere except at the school." Argen really milked the 'my lady' to try and catch her attention. She liked to be complimented and what not.

CKM...


Maroon yawned as Citrine made what must have been the thirteen hundredth adjustment to her camera, honestly he'd actually started hoping the Rhythm Rider would just throw caution to the wind and start biting people just to alleviate his boredom. A stakeout like this was now digging into time he could be using mocking others for their inferiorities, and it was starting to take a toll. He'd gotten to that special kind of boredom where he'd actually started trying to strike up a conversation with Amber... Amber!


It had gone about as well as expected, trying to start some kind of conversation only for her to either quickly glance in his direction for a moment or ignore him entirely. Honestly if he didn't know she had the speaking capacity of a lump of coal than he'd assume she were doing it on purpose.


After being cold-shouldered one time to many, Maroon had finally given up and turned to Citrine again "Alright I've had enough! Just take a picture of the guy already so we can- Where'd he go?"


The Shark-Toothed Gangster's seat was left abandoned, Maroon hadn't even noticed he was gone. Whether it was due to his attempts to speak with the blank wall that was Amber or the guy had some slippery moves was lost on him as he heard Citrine whisper:


"Yessss... yesss!" she whispered excitedly as she finally placed down the menu and raised her camera just a smidge.


Following her line of sight, Maroon spotted the Rhythm Rider making his way to Hansi's table, eerily steady in his steps.


"Uh, shouldn't we do something?" Maroon narrowed his eyes at the way the Shark toothed gangster almost seemed to lick his lips as he drew near, completely ignoring the presence of the other students.


"No! Zis is it, dear Maro, zat tantalizing moment when ze predator is preparing to pounce upon his victim! I must have it! My camera craves zis photo!"


She almost seemed to stop breathing completely as the Gangster closed the distance.


Citrine's camera went off a micro-second before the door of the Restaurant was thrown open and in walked another familiar face.


The golden haired boy who had fought next to the Shark-toothed guy, still looking like he literally walked off a magazine cover despite the fact that he looked to be panting a bit as if he had been running from something.


"Jaws!" the boy said before walking over to the Rhythm Rider with what could only be described as rhythmic movement "Oh dear me, I was so worried when I lost sight of you back there."


He chuckled whole-heartedly before swiping a glass of water from some older woman and continuing his walk as he took several tiny sips. Shark-Tooth had paused completely in his approach, and now just sorta stood there silently as Gold-Hair approached.


The blonde procured a chair and slid into the table while gulping down water just as several loud sounds occurred outside.

"HA!!! HA!!!"




Maroon could almost feel the Windows shaking, it sounded like it was supposed to be laughter but instead sounded more like someone yelling what laughter was supposed to sound like. It didn't help that there were bellowing stomping sounds that followed below those laughing yells.


"So where have you been Jaws? Pike was keeping me busy for a while but as long we don't make too much noise then-"


The Golden-haired boy paused, then took a look at the table as if only just now realizing there were other occupants there. His gaze however fell upon Hansi


"Oh my god Jaws!" Gold-hair said with a chuckle before taking a look of mock shock, the sound of those horrible laughing yells receding down the street a bit outside "Didn't know you were suddenly into the new inductees!"


He spoke quickly, hardly giving room for interjection for the students he and Jaws had interrupted, apparently fully convinced Hansi was an 'Inductee' of some sort.


"Trust me honey you don't want this guy to be your path into Soundhound's groove, Jaws has a bad habit of tasting, gets his Rhythm all wonky and stuff."


He paused as the stomping and laughs finally faded, then immediately ditched the glass and grabbed the Shark-Toothed Rhythm Rider.


"Sorry I couldn't get you the expo! We got to skedaddle before Pike comes around looking for us!" Gold Hair said as he began ushering his goggle-wearing companion towards the back exit of the restaurant "See you tonight Inductee!"


And with that the two made their exit, the furious flashing of Citrine's camera becoming all the more apparent.


Maroon's look of confusion had evolved over the course of the interaction, and with the two Gang members gone it had finally turned to one of suspicion as he suddenly turned on Hansi with a questioning gaze.

  • She gave Argen a wry grin. "You're almost adorable when you butter me up like that, Shining Armor. Well, let's see..." She turned to the waiter, who had stopped by for at least the 15th time already, the poor guy. "Hi, if it's not too much trouble could I-"


    Then a hand touched her shoulder, and the moment seemed to explode.


    The whole scene seemed to have just gone high speed. Or slow motion. Hansi couldn't really tell, all she knew that it was kind of a blur. There had been a touch on her shoulder than sent shivers up her spine, the sound of the door, hideous laughter and some kind of conversation about fights and inductees she couldn't understand. But one thing stood out.


    "See you tonight, Inductee" The golden haired man had said to her as he had dragged his creepy looking friend out. The one who had almost grabbed her. He had been speaking to her. It took her a moment of two to process that this whole scene had been addressed to her.


    "So.. uh..." she began with a nervous laugh. "W-whe- uh... Wh-why did nobody tell me I'd like... joined a gang or whatever? Because I really kinda sorta hate..." her voice trailed off as she met Maroon accusing stare. "Being the last to know."


    Wow, that didn't sound suspicious at all. Her hands clasped at the loose material of her large dress pants, and she struggled to resist the urge to grab her things and bolt out of the restaurant. But the would have been even more suspicious. "But like, seriously. What just happened here?"

[QUOTE="The Succubi Queen]

  • The commotion in the main part of the restaurant had caught her attention. There was no way Hazel and Aqua were going to miss it. She prepared herself for the worst from her less than genial teammates, the gears in her mind calculating all the while. She avoided directly talking to them in case her words set them off.
    Who where those guys anyway? Within a few moments, they had sent the whole restaurant into silence, and the commotion outside had seemed to appear as suddenly as the blonde man had come, and disappear as he left.
    That Hansi girl didn't see like she belonged with those weird looking men. Ivory had a habit of looking for the best in people, and so far all Ivory really knew about the tall dancer was that she cared about her team and she didn't like Hazel, Aqua, or that Mel girl. Ivory felt kind of bad for the girl, suddenly being the focus of all that attention. She looked like she was going to be sick.
    But why had those creepy guys had their attention on her in the first place?

[/QUOTE]
Hazel whispered into Ivory's Ear so that Aqua doesn't hear her, "Ivory... I think it's best that we leave this establishment before my dear hot-headed friend catches whiff of this and decides to use this as an opportunity to get the Camera Girl to swoon for her."


Mercifully Aqua was preoccupied with her lunch, she was a big fan of cheddar.


"Besides, I feel like I need to assert my authority some more... I am the Leader..."
 
Lazuli

After Lazuli had stormed off, leaving a trail of minor destruction behind her, she had found herself in a park of some kind, sitting on a bench with her chin resting in her hands. It was rather peaceful here. From where she sat she could see a man playing guitar a few yards away, a couple flirting beneath a tree, a woman walking her dog and a few kids running around and screaming at the top of their lungs, immersed in whatever fantasy play they were caught up in. Watching all this managed to calm her down immensely from the anger she had felt earlier.


Not enough to feel sorry or regret anything though. She stood by her actions. If Argen was bothered by what she said, he could've said so. He could've ignored her. He could've done so many things besides what he did. But he didn't. He chose to answer her. He chose to dig up his past and honestly, Lazuli didn't think it was that bad. Otherwise, why would he even talk about it. If it was so traumatic, why would he so blatantly declare it to someone he had just met. Even if he has nightmares, he's obviously gotten over it enough to talk about it. So she was not in the wrong.


Her jaw tensed, remembering Hansi's actions. It seemed all Lazuli could do was screw up in the eyes of others. But still, she'd never apologize. That was the Ashtrum way. And Lazuli was an Ashtrum. She wasn't going to apologize.


"WAAAHHH!"


Lazuli was shocked back to reality when she heard what seemed like crying. A few feet in front of her was a small child, a little boy who seemed to have fallen. She looked around, trying to find a parent or friend or anything but didn't find anyone. What? She just saw a park full of people not only 2 minutes ago. Where the hell did they manage to go? Did they teleport? Did she miss a mass nevermore attack?


Regardless, she didn't feel all too right leaving the kid there, so she inched her way over toward him. Lazuli reached out to tap his shoulder but stopped a few inches away. There was a conflicted look before she pulled back.


Instead, she jumped up and struck a pose. "What is this I hear? A cry of someone in need?" The child looked up, quiet now but still teary eyed. "You there," Lazuli said, pointing at him. "Are you the one who summoned me? What injustice has befallen you?"


The kid looked confused but soon enough showed her his knees, scrapped from the fall. Lazuli gasped overdramatically, making note of the X-Ray & Vav logo on his shirt. "Oh no! You've been injured!" She smiled. "But to last this long with such a horrible wound, you must be strong. A true hero in training I see," she said, nodding. This seemed to have stopped the child's crying, with his attention fully on her even smiling. "Yes," she said. "A true hero indeed. But you can't go fight injustice while wounded can you? Hm . . . " She brought her hand to her chin in contemplation.


She crouched by him, whispering, "Hey, can you keep a secret?" He nodded. Lazuli looked around to make sure no one was around before turning her attentions back to him. "I'm actually a superhero. A champion of justice. And I think I can help you." She stood up again, and twirled around. A small cherub appeared between her hands before entering the child. The wound healed near immediately as the kid's eyes widened, sparkling.


"T-thank you!" he chimed. But before he could do or say more, it seemed like his mother was calling him. He ran to her, looking like he was about to tell her what happened but he looked over to Lazuli first. The girl held a finger to her mouth, winking at him, and he responded with a motion of sipping his lips before waving goodbye.


Lazuli waved back but let her hand fall as she watched him and his mother happily walking away. Her smile faltered but soon enough she was looking as bright and cheerful as ever, skipping off to who knows where this time.
 
"It seems they thought you were some new member in their little group of discord. Tch. What simpletons. All it takes is wearing the color blue and they think you are a part of their little group." Argen had watched the rapid scene unfold before his iron colored eyes. He had passed over it in silence but this further served against his growing irritation. Lazuli's comment hadn't actually offended him as much as not even acknowledging his apology and now this event had occurred. The knight's eyes gave away the seething anger he had been feeling as he looked up after the Rhythm riders left the area. "You know. Its been very long time since I've spilled human blood. Perhaps this night might be the time to rekindle that section of my life."

[/QUOTE]
Miguel smiles at hansi because she gave her half of her sandwich which made Migz very happy.


"Thank you hansi"


Miguel Smiles in delight as he eat the half of the sandwich.
 

T E A L





In the past..




Teal stood in a town of rubble, staring forward a noise going off on his goggles, he saw grimm prowling in front of him he pressed the side of his googles "What does it look like again...." he grumbles his raspy voice quiet enough to the point that the grimm did not notice, he also was not really angry so they could not see him heavily "We don't know my child, just kill it and back, this is to show you want to change....if you show potential Ill let you go..." a laugh came from the headset. Teal knew throughout the call the creep had his smile on, he hated his boss. Teal noticed a disturbing fog and something standing in it next to the grimm, its eyes glowed red, it stared towards the ground. Its weapon making a loud rumbling noise. Teal backed up "Found it...." it looked white almost, like a ghost...really a f'ing ghost. So dumb. It's weapons glowed red like what an oven would look like when it was heating up. "Leave us to die....." the thing says pointing its massive sword forward as it caught flame the grimm looking to Teal as if the thing did not even exist. They charged but were struck down by two swift electric boomerangs. "What the hell are you..." Teal growled his goggles not targeting or showing where the thing was, all he could see was the heat signature of the sword. The thing spoke again "I am what you people left behind.....help us.." it says. "Just come back with me...If you're human I can get you help" Teal says not really lying to it.

The thing pointed to what looked like a subway entrance "I don't need the help, they do" it grumbles, Teal looks to the tunnel then back to the thing as it begins to shroud itself in smoke "So you never killed anyone, or is there a bomb in there waiting for me to graciously skip into." Teal grumbles "Trust..." it says the mist enveloping its bottom half "Why are you here, are you even human, I don't really understand." Teal says confused but still adding his sarcasm "I am nothing but a monster...." it says the mist eating it away Teal quickly threw his boomerangs to try to bola its legs but the boomerangs just struck into the ground and the mist dissipated revealing nothing but bloody words on the ground "I have accepted my demons...can you"

Present:

Teal was zoned out at lunch but had awoken as soon as demons was mentioned his quickly flung out of the chair just to realize that he was back, the daydreams were getting worse, longer and they just kept bringing up the same subject every damn time. Demons was all that ever echoed in his damn head. Teal grabbed the side of his head a massive headache hitting him. Demons, Demons, Demons Why was that all he ever heard, pissed him off, he could still change the past, no these damn daydreams could not stop him. But the thing he did not understand were, they were memories...not daydreams. Teal got up still a hand on his head "Ugh....I need some fresh air, the people in this room are killing me" he says in a sassy tone. As he left going outside and right to an alley sliding down the wall staring forward and taking his glasses off for a second to rub his eyes then put them back on, the wall in front of him covered in blood, spelling out as said before, Demons. Teal yelled out in anger and threw a boomerang at it, it sticking into the wall as he curled into a ball as he realized the words were not actually there. He buried his head in his knees. "What it wrong with me" he says his tone very sad. He could not be sarcastic right now....

Under the table, Saffron returned Mhalifu Ngome to their idle mode and retracted his claws. Now that shark-tooth had left the building and was no longer ogling Hansi, he was beginning to feel a lot more relaxed. "Yeah, what Argen said." Saffron confirmed, then added, "Loudmouth came in, probably high as a kite, and mistook you for a new gang recruit, while 'Jaws' probably mistook you for lunch. Also, I think you've officially been invited to their gang meet. That's actually kind of awesome."


Then Argen mentioned spilling blood.


"I'm sorry, Argen," Saffron said quickly, making a show of cleaning out his ear. "I must have misheard you. I could have sworn that you just claimed to have murdered people and that you wanted to do it again. But that couldn't be what you said, right?" He shot the knight a warning glare, telling him to shut up, that he was not happy about what he had heard, and that the two of them would be talking later.


Saffron then tried to change the subject. "Anyways, Hansi. What do you think? Going to a gang meet could be interesting. Of course it could also be very, very, dangerous. Not to mention that none of the professors would approve... You know what. Forget I said anything."


_____________________________________________________________________________________________________

Prometheus' Kiln was unusual to say the least, seeming to be a combination of several different kinds of stores. Scattered across the main floor were shelves of food, candy, and other things that you would find at a corner store, mixed in with clothing racks, sorted by gender, age, and dust effect. On the left wall were a row of glass doors, filled with cold drinks and frozen goods. The right wall was covered in powdered Dust dispensers and in the back of the of the store was the main counter, with a large variety of Dust crystals and weapons on display. The oddest thing in the store however were the two, eight feet tall suits of armor that stood on either side of the entrance.
Seeing no one at the counter, Lilith leaned over it and again shouted "Kumiho! You here?"


"Lilith?" a muffled voice called out, "Is that youwooOOPS!" followed by a loud BOOM!


Lilith quickly ducked as the 'employees only' door exploded off its hinges, flew over the counter and her head, and crashed into the flaming-scarves display, scattering its contents across the entire store. Black smoke poured out of the now open doorway and a fox faunus with silver hair stumbled out. At least his hair was supposed to be silver when it wasn't covered in soot. Pulling the blackened safety googles of his equally blackened face, Kumiho gave the cat girl a big grin. "Lilith!" he cried out excitedly, "It really is you! How have you been?"


Ignoring his question, Lilith glanced into the back room. "Something's on fire."


"Shit!" Grabbing a fire-extinguisher, the silver fox rushed back through the doorway, vanishing into the dark fog.
Several minutes passed before the smoke began to die down and dissipate. Kumiho walked back out, tossed the empty fire extinguisher to the side, and slumped against the counter. "Well that just blows," the fox sighed, "One whole week of work, gone in an instant. Well I suppose that's what I get for dropping an experimental Dust crystal on the floor. It really is hard to create new kinds of Dust with the equipment I'm using, you know. If only I had the state of the art equipment. I'd being spending a lot less money on fire extinguishers, that's for sure."


"So why not get some?" Lilith asked, not really interested in the answer.


Kumiho just laughed. "As if! Those things cost as much as the store itself. But enough about me. You never answered my question. How have you been? I mean, besides getting into Beacon and all. Congratulations on that by the way."


Lilith ignored the question once again and pulled out a piece of paper and set it on the counter. "I need supplies."


The fox shook his head. "You're as cold as always I see. Then again, I suppose you wouldn't be Lilith if you weren't. Now let me take a look at that." Picking up the list, Kumiho scanned over it. "Alright. Let's see... hmm. This is a rather large amount of stuff you need. More than usual. I see that you're trying to space your visits out as far as possible. I can certainly provide the goods, but it's going to leave a large dent in your wallet. Well, maybe not your wallet per say, but it's still going to be rather pricey..."
 



  • "Argen, I-it really was just an honest mistake, I think. I don't think there's any need for, like, blood shedding or whatever because of some drugged out lunatics. They don't like, actually expect me to join right? They won't mess me and everyone I care about up like in the movies, right?" She looked around at her companions. Ok, maybe fearing for everyone's life was a bit much, but something in the Gold Haired man's eyes told her he wasn't taking no for an answer. "And no, Herb, It is not cool, I'm not a criminal!"


    "I mean, maybe it's a good chance to like, figure out what the hell is going on with these guys, but I'm not exactly jumping to join these thugs, pretend or not. And like, I'm not really good at parties..." Really? She mentally scolded herself. Not good at parties? This is your excuse to not get involved in a gang bust that you are now central to??





    She looked over to Miguel, lost in his own little world of his half of her sandwich. He was so oblivious, he might as well have just been a happy little sibling. Krisha had always wanted to be a Hunter. And she'd only cared about herself, and where had that led her? Would this shop be here tomorrow, if she did nothing? Sure, she could hide in Beacon and never worry about this gang again, but everyone else?


    She looked at Migz again. A vague memory of Tealiose asking her if she had come here to be a hero rang in her mind. She'd decided a long time ago to stop running. Was one guy with creepy teeth and his blonde druggie boss going to scare her now?


    "But, I mean. If it like, helps keep Vale safe or whatever..." she looked at Saffron, displaying more courage than she was feeling. "Then screw what the professors would approve. Let's like, go to a rave!"





@Bullet Tooth Tony @theManCalledSting @TheGoldenGear
 
"Yes sir." The knight responded after his captain's reaction to hearing about Argen's past. Argen had actually forgotten that no one actually knew what kind of training nor what kind of.....things the knight did before coming here. It wasn't anything he was proud of but Argen certainly wasn't ashamed of it. It was what forged him into the powerful warrior he is today. Normally, Argen would look straight ahead after seeing Saffron's glare, out of respect for the chain of command. This time the knight did not. Argen stayed silent when prompted but he met his leader's glare with one of his one. Argen did not blink and he did not flinch. The look that reflected in the young man's features could only be described as someone who has not only seen many people die but also one who has been the cause of human deaths. The look of a battle hardened soldier. A seasoned survivor. It was some time before Argen breaks the stare and turns to Hansi when she said she wanted to go to the supposed rave. "I don't think it's wise Hansi. But it's your call. Though I think I will need a different outfit and I highly doubt my school uniform or my armor would be good camouflage.

  • "I have a better idea, dear leader." Ivory said, before tapping Aqua on the shoulder.
    "Aqua, before I tell you anything, I need you to answer my question: Why did you kick Herb on Monday?" She looked at her, resolute eyes making it clear that her previous excuse of his face looking untrustworthy wasn't going to cut it. She wanted a genuine answer. Was Aqua just unable to greet people? Couldn't be that, she had been fine with Ivory and Nyx. Was is some weird problems with guys? If so, why Herb and not his male teammate, or ever Maroon, who hovered around her crush Citrine? Why be so violent towards Herb without cause?

[/QUOTE]
Aqua was surprised by Ivory's sudden interest in Herb, "You wanna know why?" Aqua asked her shorter teammate as she placed her hand on Ivory's shoulder.


"I did what I did because I've heard what that ass said about Lapis, even if she wasn't my cousin who happens to share her name and looks... bu that's besides the point, the guy acted like a jerk and you know the old saying 'treat people like you want others to treat you' I did what I did because he treated someone like a jerk so I better treat him the same way... I know what I did is wrong... but if he did anything to anyone of you guys I promise he won't be standing..."


Hazel rolled her eyes as Auqa continued with her "little" speech.


"So what is it you want to talk about lil' lady? and I mean that in an endearing way."
 
Lazuli

"You're coming home with me today, Remmington." Lazuli had gone back to buy the disfigured bear from earlier who was now being held up against the sky so that his new owner could get a better look at him. The more she looked at him, the cuter he was becoming. That lone black eye sparkling in the sun. The left arm slightly larger than the right. He. Was. So. Cute! Well, to her at least.


She was now on her way back to the meeting spot for an airship back to Beacon when she found herself near the restaurant she had stormed out of earlier. Eh . . . It would probably be best to avoid that place right now. Lazuli looked around, trying to find an alternate route when she spotted someone in the alley nearby. A homeless man? A junkie? A prostitute? No. It was just Teal. Disappointing.


Though this could also be a good thing. Lazuli snuck closer, just about to drop kick the boy when she heard something . . . off.


"What is wrong with me?"


She stopped dead in her tracks. What? What did he just say? It wasn't something she expected of the usual Teal. But what alarmed her was his tone of voice, unmistakenably sad. She straightened herself up but said nothing. She seemed to be thinking, the same conflicted look on her face as when she was with the child back in the park. It seemed like she wasn't sure of what to do.


After thinking for a bit, she put on another smile and stepped toward Teal. And drop kicked him. "Lazuli Kick!"

Beo giggled at mels bumblings. It reminded her of some of some of the three year olds she had seen, struggling to master the nuances of the weird sticks they were told to eat with. She had done it a little quicker then most her mom said, especially after her ma brought home some chop sticks made out of Grimm bones especially for her. It was expensive gift for a child and she treasured it. It made her a little sad to think about but she shook off the feeling like a cobweb, it was lost and gone like everything else. She shouldn't dwell. "Good job" She said to Mel and gave her a few claps before showing off a bit. She flipped a bun into the air with one stick then juggled it for a few moments before catching it in her mouth. "But can you beat that?" She asked after slurping it down."And please try some of the tea before you choke!"

Mel paused from her gluttonous meal to Drink the tea that Beo ordered.


Mel's eyes once more lit up as she savored the flavor of the tea.


"Wow, Beo you sure do know where the good stuff's at!" Mel exclaimed as she continued to devour her meal.


Once Beo did her little trick, Mel took a moment to admire her crush and leader, "Uh, no?" Mel said as she forgot her manners. Eventually she does swallow her food.


"Besides, let's talk something uhhh, important. What do you think of our first week as a team?" Mel said hoping for Beo praise her for helping out with her homework that one time.

In his head





'They are just memories....get over them' Teal kept telling himself his head stinging again and he heard a familiar voice in his ear but it was not Lazuli...not yet at least "Heh heh heh...always thinking you can change the past...kid we all our issues. The parts of us we don't want to see." The fake voice of the smile guy spoke but the voices were not over he heard another, in his head giving him another headache "Kid you can chase me all you want...but I trust my demons, I trust my curse. I killed my family, my clan because of them. BUT at least I can accept it and move on! I'm cursed kid....you just killed your best friend." a voice says in his head Teal rubbing his temples "STOP LECTURING ME" he yells to himself quietly "Teal...Hotshot. Look at me, look at what happened to me, I spent 30 years chasing ghosts. Hotshot I gave up my kids, they don't even have my last name. Live your life Hotshot...take my sons and have a blast, marry my daughter. Just be happy once for me. I'm like family to you. Just open your eyes and come play some games with your old man Jasper." Another voice was heard in his head, in his head it was clear it was someone close.

Real Life

Teal lifted his head up to just get drop kicked right in the side of his head sending him flinging into the Alleyway his glasses flinging off and one lens shattering. His other boomerang exiting his pocket and setting down on the ground, Wind was in the wall, and Whistle was now on the ground, one behind her. The other in front. Bad thing...Teal hit the ground face in the cement of the alleyway. Arms in front of himself. He seemed out cold but a twitch revealed he was alive at least "If you are going to kick me why not just kill me WHILE YOU'RE AT IT." Teal says a wombo combo of sass and sarcasm poisoning his sentence. Teal moved to his knees and sat up for a second facing away from her. The side of his head glowed a white color but his face was not visible. He quickly pulled his arm up and without looking he clicked a few buttons Wind falling to the ground from its wall state then he clicked another button and both the boomerangs instantly glowed black and exploded outwards a gravity field. It went outwards and then pulled back inwards making it so she would not be able to get up for a second. Teal quickly put on a spare pair of shades and flicked his hands his boomerangs coming back to him "You are going to have to pay me for those shades, they were clearly dirt cheap" Teal says turning back to her covered in a bit of dirt but was back to the normal looking Teal.

"Oh, man. This is such a bad idea." Saffron chuckled, leaning back in his chair and grinning. "But the lady has spoken and I must obey. Argen totally has a point though. We are so under dressed for the occasion. If we're going to do this we should look the part."


He put his hands behind his head and chuckled again. "It has been so long since I've been to a rave."


(sorry for the short post. Didn't have much to say.)

[QUOTE="Ian Temero]

Several minutes passed before the smoke began to die down and dissipate. Kumiho walked back out, tossed the empty fire extinguisher to the side, and slumped against the counter. "Well that just blows," the fox sighed, "One whole week of work, gone in an instant. Well I suppose that's what I get for dropping an experimental Dust crystal on the floor. It really is hard to create new kinds of Dust with the equipment I'm using, you know. If only I had the state of the art equipment. I'd being spending a lot less money on fire extinguishers, that's for sure."


"So why not get some?" Lilith asked, not really interested in the answer.


Kumiho just laughed. "As if! Those things cost as much as the store itself. But enough about me. You never answered my question. How have you been? I mean, besides getting into Beacon and all. Congratulations on that by the way."


Lilith ignored the question once again and pulled out a piece of paper and set it on the counter. "I need supplies."


The fox shook his head. "You're as cold as always I see. Then again, I suppose you wouldn't be Lilith if you weren't. Now let me take a look at that." Picking up the list, Kumiho scanned over it. "Alright. Let's see... hmm. This is a rather large amount of stuff you need. More than usual. I see that you're trying to space your visits out as far as possible. I can certainly provide the goods, but it's going to leave a large dent in your wallet. Well, maybe not your wallet per say, but it's still going to be rather pricey..."

[/QUOTE]
(All prices listed below are under the assumption that $1.00 = 100 lien)


Kumiho began to read off the list.


"Alright. You've listed basic ammunition for just about every type of gun. Twenty-twos, fifty calibers, BMGs, shells. Beacon should provide you with ammo themselves, at least they did when I was going there, so you don't need worry about these. Dust rounds however, you will still need to buy." Pulling out a large scroll, the fox began making notes. "Fifty-caliber AE fire rounds, ice rounds, and lightning rounds. Two-hundred of each. That will be.... let's see, twenty rounds per case five thousand for each case fifty thousand for two hundred... One hundred fifty thousand lien for the dust rounds."


"Now for the new shotgun I'm going to recommend the Falcon Legacy 31. It's a lightweight, 28-gauge, semi-automatic, with virtually no recoil. I've tried it out myself and I am very much impressed with it. Best part is that it's a very cheap gun, only one hundred ninety eight thousand nine hundred lien. What do you think?" Lilith gave him a nod and Kumiho added it to his own list. This continued on for several minutes.


Finally they reached the end of the list. "Now for Dust. The Large Crystal Pack is twenty five thousand three hundred lien, the Large Powder Pack is ten thousand ninety eight lien, and the three glamour crystals cost four hundred and eighty six. And finally your favorite, the amp crystals. You need seventy of them and lucky for you I keep a lot of them in stock. For seventy of them that's... nine thousand eight hundred by seven add a zero... six hundred eighty six thousand. Anything else you want to add last minute?" Lilith shook her head. "Alright then add everything together, add six percent for tax, and the final price comes out to be one million two hundred twelve thousand nine hundred twenty one lien." the fox let out a low whistle. "Have to admit, it's not every day that I have that big of a number on my screen. Now, If you would place your scroll on the sensor to verify your weapons licence." Lilith did as he said and a beep came from his own scroll. "There we go. Now for payment..."

Two forms of Dust that I have created. Not canon in any way.


Glamour Dust - 80% water Dust, 10% fire Dust - 987 lien


This Dust allows one to change the color of their aura or the visual effect of their semblance.


While it is a very easy form of Dust to make, it's not very popular. Since the aura is an extension of one's soul, many feel that to use Glamour Dust would be to deny one's very soul.


(Lilith uses this to disguise her semblance during stealth missions. A bright flash of light is not very sneaky.)


Amplification Dust - Recipe undisclosed - 9,800 lien


This Dust, despite its name, does not simply make one more powerful. Rather it allows one to use their semblance at its full potential. It does not work on semblances already operating at full potential (like Yang Xiao Long's) and how it affects one's semblance is as unique as the semblance itself.


Kumiho Nogitsune is the only man alive with knowledge on how to create this form of Dust. Despite several attempts from numerous Dust companies to buy the recipe from him, Kumiho continues to keep the process a secret. The crystal itself is highly unstable, being destroyed after a single use, and can not be made into a powdered form.


(Lilith uses these to increase the range of her teleportations from feets to miles.)

  • "Um, hello? We're Beacon students- we don't, like, have any bad ideas, just ones that kinda seem bad, or something like that." As she became assured that her friends had her back, her confidence grew.


    "Wait- Are you guys, like, actually, saying, to me--" She looked to Argen and then to Saffron. "That we need to go shopping?" Call her frivolous, but Hansi loved shopping. Trying on cute clothes you couldn't afford, picking out the most hideous item from the clearance rack and actually buying it for a laugh (and hey, it's 200 Lien, maybe you can hack into into a cute outfit), having all of your friend compliment you on how cute you would look in something you would never wear in a million years, all of the ridiculous fun of it all- it was exactly what she needed after the week she'd had.


    "Ohmigod, When I am done with you boys, only the most idiotic of gangsters will call you underdressed!" She was already hopping out of her seat, grinning from ear to ear. She was already planning vague outfits for the boys, oh and she'd have to call Lazuli as well, there was no way she was going to miss beating the heck out of a bunch of drugged out partiers, and she couldn't do this without Teal and his level head, and maybe she could wriggle him out of his scarf for once, this was going to be so fun, Argen would look so different from his stuffy self in a sleeveless silver- wait.


    "Where exactly does one find clothes to wear to a rave?"

"Wait, did you just say... 'Rave'?" Aqua asked, with her eyes lit up, she hasn't attended a rave in quite some time and busting up a gang is just the icing on the cake for her but before she could tell Ivory that she wants in Hazel clasped her hand around Aqua's mouth to silence her.


"I think we best head back to our dorm, after all... Aqua-Marie can't stand the sight of someone she doesn't like especially when said person struck her," Hazel said rather eloquently.


"And Besides, Aqua hasn't finished her Essay," Hazel added with a sly smirk.


Aqua slumped down defeated knowing that she's going to miss all the fun.


"Now then, Aqua, Chin up! If you actually put effort in your essay then I'll treat you to a night out on the town," Hazel said trying to coax Aqua into doing her homework.


"Fine..." Aqua said as she left the restaurant.


Hazel crossed her arms and looked at Ivory, "So while she's moping about doing homework, how's about you and I play a round of Sudoku?"
