[Action] That Sinking Feeling
Who: Erza and Soma
Where: Fayren City streets
When: February 28th - late at night
What: Erza's going out bounty hunting, but things don't go quite as planned; Soma intervenes.
Warnings: Mild violence.
Erza's eager to go out and hunt down criminals - it seems like the best way to establish Fairy Tail's reputation in this place. Unfortunately, the bounty that she took doesn't have much to go on; nobody had seen the mage in question and lived to tell about it, given his tendency to kill the people who he robbed.
Still, it wasn't that difficult to find the locations where prior robberies had occurred. While the damage had been magically fixed after the bodies had been recovered and potential witnesses were questioned, people tended to not forget seeing quicksand pits in the city. Most of the robberies, somewhat predictably, happened in alleys or isolated streets, so Erza decides to stick to the rooftops (figuring that they're the best vantage point, though the fact that she'll stick out like a sore thumb up there doesn't occur to her) and wait.
With the moon high in the sky, Erza is about to move on to another area to continue her search when she hears a piercing shriek. It's brief, but enough for Erza to go on. After hopping over a few rooftops, she seems to spot who she's looking for - a couple, gagged with what appears to be hardened mud or clay, and a man who would be nondescript if not for his hair, which looks like an octopus is resting on his head.
"Halt!" Erza leaps from the roof, landing between the couple and the thief, who was clutching what he had taken from them. Not being particularly good with following instructions, the thief takes off running. With a wave of his hand, a stone wall rises out of the ground behind him, trapping Erza and the victims in the alley.
"Don't worry, I'll stop him." Erza summons a sword with a watery blade to her hand. It only takes a few moments of being submerged in the water to dissolve the gags, which only leaves the problem of the wall. Erza stares at it, contemplating what to do...
...only to burst through it moments later, clad in gold armour with massive shoulder-pads. "GET BACK HERE!" The thief is much further down the street, still clutching his ill-gotten gains and running as fast as his legs can carry him. Grimacing, Erza gives chase, though given how loud the destruction of the stone wall was, she probably won't be the only one.
