| OOC- Sorry for not getting a direct answer to you sooner, and just to let you know, I would've said that you wouldn't have a card but since it was already posted that you had one I thought that my following reason would be sufficient enough.
"Yes, they would do that. It's a requisite for allowing someone in the city with anything that could be considered a weapon. Just to keep track on any potential murderers. not saying you are one, you just look rather tough." Vincent smiled cheerfully and gathered the cards that had been handed over, and pulled a gadget from his coat, a small battery type thing with two wires sticking out. He wired the cards up and an electric shock was sent through them, frying the circuitry inside of them. Most importantly the tracking systems. "That should do it...Did I miss any cards?"

| OOC: Yeah, that makes perfect sense to me.
*Avendia smiled at Vincent* "I thank you for the compliment, though in truth most people think my people look tougher than average. I can only guess it's because our height makes most uneasy." |

| Rei had been deep in thought, when he decided to make his first rash decision since he left his mother.
"You forgot mine." He took it out and ripped it in half before handing it to Vincent. "Here." (Last edited by Seamus Finnan on 02-12-07 01:47 AM) |

| Vincent sighed. He grabbed the card which Rei handed to him. Attaching it to his electrostatic gadget and zapping the chip.
"Breaking it in half won't do anything, they have circuitry which must be fried." Vincent looked at the smart-alecky girl and smiled. "I sure do hope you're telling the truth miss, otherwise I won't be protecting you if they come for us." Vincent said this cheerfully, but something in his eyes showed that he meant every word. |

| She smirked at him and backed off.
"When my team raided a smelting plant, I tossed it in the liquid steel. 9000 degree molten metal should be enough to fry any circuitry, eh?" She sounded like a smart-ass, as usual; accomplished and in-your-face as always. That's how people "knew" her. That's how she is, it seemed. |

| Bria glanced from one person to the other as they discussed the cards, her own card had already been taken. She looked over at Alexis and smiled.
"I'm sure the 9000 degrees was enough to properly dispose of the card, Vincent." She then looked over at Vincent and looked him straight in the eyes. It was the first time she had addressed him by his first name. She wasn't usually so direct, but never did shy away from people when she was. Bria then shrugged and walked over to the bed. She leaned against the post and slid to the floor. She brought her knees to her chest and rested her chin on them, her jet black hair cascading about her on the floor. The rest of her attire was black as well. Black boots and a black long-sleeved turtleneck top. Her spaghetti strap dress was also black, though a bit lighter than the rest of her attire. Even with her knees to her chest, she didn't need to worry. Her stockings were so dark that nothing could be seen anyway. She closed her eyes and simply rested until there was word of what would happen next. Until she could contribute anything, she was just along for the ride. |

| Alexis kinda felt bad for the girl. She knew what it felt like. She calmed herself, and seemed to seperate herself from the rest of the group, and sat down next to Bria, and spoke to her quietly, so no one else, excpet maybe Vincent (after all, it wouldn't surprise her if he happened to eavesdrop), would be able to hear her. Alexis nudged her shoulder.
"Sucks, don't it. You feelin' alright, girl? Feelin' like ya got roped into this whole shitty affair?" |

| Bria scooted over a few inches to give Alexis more room to sit and lean against the bed. She then looked over and shook her head, grinning as she did so. "Roped?" She asked softly. "Nah...I tied the noose myself and left the other end open for someone to pull." She adds with a giggle. "The name's Bria." She says, offering a hand to Alexis. She tilted her head as she spoke, smiling a little and surveying the girl before her with her blue eyes. | |||

| Kenneth Ride was staring outside the window, and he felt in his bones, the same intuitive chill that plagued him since a child. The rain fell harder and harder, but inside him he felt the true storm had yet to rage. Without turning, he addressed the group in a stern, emotionless face.
"I know now in my heart that my decision may have triggered a new age of chaos." From outside, the buzz of helicopters could be heard, and their spotlights could be seen, scouring the city. "I'm sorrier than I could ever say to all of you in this room, even to you, Vincent. I started this. I convinced you to leave the organization with me, and so implicated you to a life of criminalism. And to you all, innocent bystanders, I am in deeper regret." And at this, Ken turned around, facing the group. He was soaked, but he still commanded a fierce and powerful presence. "You have no sins to repent, no crimes committed, but yet you will be still hunted. If I lose my life protecting any of you, don't try to avenge me. I will consider my debt to you paid. But, I still have a reason to live, as I hope you all do as well. We are now accidential allies in a fight against a corrupt organization. I can train you, I can protect you, I can die for you, but I will not make a decision for you without your consent. I ask you all now, will you join my side? It will likely be irreversible, and also fatal. But, it is what I ask. Will you assist me?" Ken stared deeply at these people. They were a motley crew, to be sure, but he saw potential in each and every one of them. If they desired training, they were looking at a professional. But, they needed to will it for themselves. "If you accept my offer, we will begin plotting our escape of the city. We will not be safe here as a group. Once we're out of the city, we'll be going to my good friend the Marquis' residence in neutral territory. However, if any of you choose to decline my offer, I will see to it I find a way for you to be safe and to return you home. Once there, I cannot protect you. You will likely never hear from me again." He turned around as the spotlight from a helicopter grew closer to the building and shut the curtains. As he did so, he said one final statement, "If you wish to ask me a question, feel free. I will answer your question as best I can." |

| "Our families." Bria pipped up immediately. She didn't rise from her position, but she clenched her hands into fists. "What of them? I can't just up and leave mine behind..." She says. For a moment, her mind wandered. She didn't remember her mother much, but one memory still echoed in her mind. The memory of her mother and father sitting her down to explain the "lump in mommy's tummy" rang clear as a bell. And then they were gone. Her mother and the lump. She still had her father and the rest of her neighborhood had come together to raise her as well.
They were all her family and their bond grew even stronger when her father was gone as well. For the past few years, they were all she had...they cared for her and not only put up with her sicknesses as a child, but they helped her to become better...to outgrow many of her illnesses. She looked back over at Ken and slowly she stood. At first she said nothing. "If my being home will endanger them, then I shall accompany you...if not, then...I'm sorry..." Her eyes hit the floor as she made her last comment and her long dark bangs fell into her face. |

| Alexis couldn't help but feel sorry for the girl.
"Hey, at least you have a family to love. I don't have anyone. Never really did. Don't worry about them. If you decide to join this crazy bastard, I'm sure they'll remain safe." She then turned her attention to Ken, and stood up. "Never thought I'd be sayin' this to anyone, especially a crazy rebel." She rose to face him, and shook his hand heartily. "But you gotcher self a fighter. You should feel kinda honored," she added with a a bit of a smirk. |

| Vincent smiled cheerfully once again.
"Come now. You're too melancholy to be the Ken I know. Friend, you have not damned me by having me join you, you have saved me. I would have been commanded to murder you, to hunt and destroy you. I could not do that to a friend. And they would have me clean for the picking to accidentally send some friendly fire my way. We are two of their most properly trained individuals, it was only a matter of time before we broke through the illusion and saw the dastardly truth. You broke through before I, but alas, 'tis the fault of living an illusion every moment of your life I suppose." Turning slowly towards Bria. One could well see the desperation in his eyes. "Your family...May already be hunted. They may be questioned, stalked, and tracked constantly, to show any sign of you going to them. I...Apologize. But there is little we can do to save them and you. You, in their unjust eye, have instigated this and they will believe you to have been in this from the start. As you said, you tied the noose around your neck, and left the other end for one to pull. Come with us, and I assure you that to the best of my ability, we will cut the rope of the noose so short, one must be very, very close to pull it. And then, I would place the noose around my neck before it were to break yours." |

| Alarath himself didn't have any family, they died a long time ago. However, for those who did...
"You know," he said. "If you turned yourself in, and explained it, your family would probably go free. If you're lucky, you might even be given a lighter sentence, rather than an inevitable doom with a military operation." He looked at Ken. "I'm afraid that as far as fighting goes, I'm not very skilled. However, for the right payment, I could act as a doctor. Otherwise, I'm sure there is a way to create a false identity, and continue along in my way." He now knew where they met, if they refused, he had a very minor feeling he could turn them in and stop being tagged by Red Eye, probably obtaining a nice reward while he's at it. |

| Bria looked up at Vincent. "As long as they aren't out to kill them. They aren't weak people. I know they can handle everything else."
Her eyes met Alex's for a moment. She wanted to say something, but decided against it. Bria always felt that eye conact said more than words ever could anyways. That was why she did it all the time. However, once Alarath spoke up, her body rotated sharply in his direction. Her eyes narrowed and she walked over to him until she stood directly before him. She looked up. She appeared to be angry...the way she had walked over to him, the way she stood, and the way her blue eyes locked into his. "Right payment?" Her voice came out soft rather than angrily, however. "Dear sir, I believe that they are offering protection, and if I am not mistaken, that is a generous amount of payment..." She says politely. |

| Alexis caught the look from Bria, and sort of understood. She kept her stare at her for a few seconds. "She has some pretty eyes..." was really the first thing that came to mind.
After hearing Alarath's selfish comment, Alexis was pretty displeased with the red-haired doctor. "And you wouldn't help us out of the goodness of your heart, even though I was the one that decided to drag your ass here along with everyone else?" she preached, backing him into a wall. "You got a lot of nerve, pal. I have half a mind to cut one o' yer fingers off if you keep on mouthin' off like a spoiled brat." She said the last part just as she took out a knife and stabbed it into the wall, only centimeters from his head. "Are we clear now?" (Last edited by Clockworkz on 02-17-07 04:11 PM) |

| Alarath concentrated, and the knife suddenly heated up to 200 degrees, hopefully burning Alexis' hand.
"I could have found my way here just as easily as you," he said. "I work in this city, I can find my way around it. Now, threats aren't really needed are they?" The knife cooled down, no longer fueled by Alarath's concealed anger. The way these people were acting, there might be a reason Red Eye was so tough on them. "I don't work on anything for free," he said to Bria. "Now, do you honestly think these people are going to just hide us away, or will they make us risk our lives planting bombs in key places, probably getting shot on the way?" |

| Bria craned her neck back so that she could see Alexis, since she had to lean over her to get to Alarath. She froze, trying not to get in their way. She flinched when he heated up the knife but still did not move right away. After a few seconds, she ducked out of the way and looked back at Alexis, placing a hand on her shoulder in an attempt to keep her from reaching out and hurting Alarath.
"I don't know sir." She says, without even looking at Alarath at first, but after a few seconds, she looked right at him before turning toward a window. Even though the rain was still pouring down, Bria opened the window anyway. She held both of her hands up and somehow the rain was not coming inside the room. She closed her eyes for a moment and inhailed through her nose. There was something about the smell of rain Bria always enjoyed. After a few seconds, she opened her eyes again. Occasionaly she would move one of her hands very slightly. She would lock her attention on one raindrop and either stop it, suspending it in the air before letting it continue it's fall. Another one would catch her eye and she would slow it's fall and make it swirl until it hit the side of the building. Of course one could only see this if they were up close, but she didn't care. She had no intentions of showing off. She was just keeping herself entertained until they decided on where to go next. (Last edited by Katana on 02-17-07 05:54 PM) |

| Alexis released the dagger as soon as she felt heat. She knew how hot a Fire Totem can heat things, so she felt little in the way of pain.
She ripped the knife out of the wall and sheathed it, walking away from him. "Don't push your luck, fire-crotch," she insultingly added. She then looked at Bria again. "Men. Am I right?" she added with a sarcastic smirk. |

| Bria looked up at Alexis, her concentration broken. Rain began pouring into the room. Bria blushed and closed the window before turning back to Alex. She smiled.
"Tell me about it. My father was hotheaded as well...not always a bad trait though..." She added. |

| "Doctor, you can have payment. My old salary was incredibly considerate, but seeing as how I'll never have to pay rent for my apartment again, I have a considerable amount of funds. Besides what I'll need to feed everyone here, you can have the rest." Ken said to the doctor, noting his mercenary-like behavior. He'll hope to make sure he doesn't ask anything life-demanding of the man. Feeling curious, he began to scan the others, gaining first impressions. Alexis, the girl he was most familiar with, seemed to be able to hold her own. Cute, too. The other girl, Bria, was a beautiful but apparently weak girl. But he could feel at that moment the waterbending she was doing. She could certainly be an asset.
The Stone-Feet, Rei and Avendia, could each hold their own. They both seemed able to simply jump into a battle and fare perfectly well. The only one who seemed incapable of battling well was the doctor. He cared not, however, for he owed them all whatever he could. |
