Action: At the Bay

[The faint resonance of an echo reaches Ib's ears waking her from her slumber. Her sword is at her side and her rose mask is positioned over her eyes. A soft sigh leaves her lips before she swings her legs down and into the shallow pool of water. The box that rests next to her tumbles and falls, splashing next to her. Cold eyes look down at the case before picking it up. The memory of red words flash across her thoughts as she does.

Thief Thief Thief

With a soft growl she pushes the though away and pockets the box in her backpack. There is no need to read what's inside, she already knows this world isn't her own. It's then that she notices that it's missing. Her eyes widen and her ruby gaze flicks over at the surrounding area.

Where is it? It had been with her moments before.

In her sudden panic she hadn't noticed the phone that slipped from the box and into the water around her. Her fingers are twitching as if to reach for her sword. Her eyes cast towards the phone and she plucks it from the water with an angry hand. Her steps are quick as she moves from the the water and on to the shore. The hologram gives her pause and her first reaction is to swing her sword which passes effortlessly through it. This isn't like the museum.]

Video

[Brown hair frames her face while a single red eyes peers through a black mask. There is a rose across the right eye making it impossible to see more of her face.]

You will give it back.

[Her voice seethes with anger.]

I know you stole the painting now give him back!

[Ib is almost shouting into the screen now her fingers clenching the small phone. She doesn't know how it fully works just yet, she found the video first but only the painting is in her thoughts.]

Threaded | Top-Level Comments Only

[It just so happened that one particular non-human being was looking into the Bay at that moment to see if anyone of interest had woken up recently. Only to spot someone swinging a sword at the hologram...]

Er. Hello?

[Gale happened to be passing near the Bay, decked out in his pilot suit, complete with butterfly mask and cables hanging from his neck, as he was doing a little additional intel gathering throughout the cities. Not that he got anything new, but he stopped when he caught sight of that girl from the corner of his eye. Well, that sure is an angry looking girl with a sword over there.

Clearly, the best thing to do was turn towards her as he rested his hands on his hips.]

Y'know, a hologram isn't gonna feel that. It ain't gonna hurt you, either.

[A dark glare is pointed towards the girl. Bright red eyes lingering on her for a moment before the gleaming metal of her blade is pointed in her direction. She has no problems with killing in order to get the answers that she needs.

Her mask is still positioned over her eyes but her intent is obvious by the glare she casts towards the girl.]

Tell me where it is. Give back what you've stolen.

[Each word drips with venom.]

[Ib is wearing a mask as well. It's black and perfectly positioned over her eyes and nose. A red rose is fashioned on one side while two bright red eyes look over at him. Her long dark hair falls well below her hips while her clothes suggest she might have been a student.

The gleaming metal of her blade turns towards him as if positioned to strike.]

You never know what can come to life.

[Her voice is soft and silky smooth but it's obvious that she's on edge.]

If you know this place then tell me where my painting is.

What painting are you accusing people to have stolen?

[He paused for a moment as he thought about it. He could not come up with anything.]

[Ib clenches her teeth before speaking, her voice low and dangerous.]

It's a painting of a boy. He's sleeping, he's wearing a blue jacket and he's pressed against the wall.

I need this painting back.

[Zelos sometimes took a detour past the bay on his way too and from work - taking a different route home every now and then kept things interesting.

Today, however, was definitely not the best time to be doing this. He flinched as he saw the attractive young lady trying to slice through the hologram. Jeeze, these new arrivals were getting violent.]

Woah, woah, settle down, my beautiful flower. That thing won't hurt you.

As much as I usually am the likely culprit, I didn't steal any paintings. Too big, hard to sell, and my wall's already filled with music posters.

I'm sorry that your painting got stolen, but I do not have it.

[At least she didn't have any painting around at least.]

[Crimson eyes flick over towards Zelos. She notes the color of his hair and a slightly curl looking smile pulls at her lips.]

Beautiful flower?

[She asks softly.

Her blade stays at her side but for the moment she keeps it lower.]

Don't you mean beautiful rose? Red, like blood.

[Ib takes a step towards him.]

Where is this place?

[Her voice is silky smooth as she calmly replies.]

You're a thief then? Perhaps you know where a Gallery might be? Any place my painting might have gone?

My walls are far to bare and only this painting will fill them.

[Zelos gave a raised eyebrow at that comment, before covering this with a playful grin.]

Is that what you'd rather I called you? It'd be my pleasure, beautiful rose~ It's suits you.

[Juuuust ignoring that blood comment.]

This is Genessia. Can't really say I know where it is, exactly, but it's a city in another world. No one really knows how we all ended up here. Pretty nice place once you get used to it, though.

I see.

[So young.]

Where am I then?

[She hadn't listened to the recording and she hasn't opened the box she woke with.]

[Not the gallery then.]

I see.

[Ib continues to step closer, her eyes set on Zelos. He'd be perfect, if only she had her painting.]

Tell me then. Were can I find my painting?

[It has to have been with her.]

[Daniella tilted her head ever so slightly, watching the girl from the shadows. Why was she swinging at that thing. It made no sense what so ever, even she knew it wasn't really.]

Swinging at something... Not human seems a little... odd.

[She grips her rather large blade of glass, no one ever seem to speak to her about it, so she kept it on her as much as possible.]

[Bright red eyes turn towards the girl, her gaze narrowing slightly.]

Not human doesn't mean it's not alive.

[She's fought many things that weren't human.]

And what are you?

Although this place did just get a little better, now a lovely young lady like you's come by.

[Personal space? Sure, he didn't need that anyway.]

Let's see...what does this painting of yours look like?

[Ib's voice stays calm but it's clear that talking about the painting makes her a little tense.]

It's of a boy, sleeping against a wall. He's wearing a blue coat but it's hard to see his face.

[She tries to keep her voice light continuing her steps forward. She only stops when they are about a foot apart.]

Do you think you can find that?

... Uh, what?

I don't usually steal things besides hearts, and...

[NOT HELPING! Still, she's sort of backing away.]

[Ib's lips curl into a smile.]

I've stolen a heart before too.

[She lowers her sword but only slightly.]

Can you tell me where I can find my painting?

Currently Genessia, which is where everyone first arrives. There are other cities as well as that one though.

[She paused to think about it, if it was a painting she had then if she didn't have it now...]

Can I ask if you had your painting on you when you arrived?

[He doesn't move away from her - right now, he doesn't see the need to - although his sensitive eyes pick up how she tenses when she speaks.]

Leave it with me, I'll keep my eye out for you. Wouldn't want to see you lose something so important.

[Ib simply nods her head before taking another small step forward. She noticeably relaxes and her eyes stay fixed on Zelos.]

And where would you look? In a place like this?

I didn't.

[Her voice is slightly tense, obviously she wouldn't be looking for it if it is with her.]

I need to find it.

[Keeping his gaze like that made him a little uncomfortable... he glanced away, glad his winter coat hid the Cruxis Crystal in his chest.]

I guess...the museum in Nova City, probably?
