OOC: Is Reina supposed to be a Wetgirl or an Assassin?

 

IC:

 

Dante looked around realising that Reina had gone. "Should we tell Riohs?" Dante asked. She must have over heard me speaking, Dante thought to himself while standing up. He walked through the restuarant and through the living area. He walked outside to to see Riohs on the roof. "Reina's gone," Dante shouted to him. He didn't care much for her himself but he knew that Riohs would go and find her. Dante then walked back inside the hotel and went up to his room, to go to sleep. He had had nearly no sleep over that last few days and didn't realise how tired he was. He lay there, pondering the what had happened that day before falling to sleep.

Selene looked around and shrugged as she saw Dante going up to his room. H3ll, he is even more antisocial than ME. She thought, walking over to Riohs.

"When was the last time you've seen Reina? I think she's gone. Left us, most probably," she said listlessly. She looked out into the dusk. The sun had set half an hour ago, and the world had been bathed in darkness.

"You want her along, don't you?" she asked, turning back to RIohs.

[CristalFlames]

OOC-wetgirl

 

A group of five men walked up to Reina. "You're coming with us. You need to answer a few questions and maybe play a game." They grinned and laughed. One grabed her arm and Reina glared at then. She pulled her arm free and punched him in the face sending him flying out of the alley. "Who's next?" Reina watched them. Another guy swung his fist at her. She ducked and knocked his feet from under him. As he fell she hit him in the gut. One by one the rest of them fly out of the alley. They got up and ran as fast as they could. "Next time don't mess with me." Reina was angry. She took slow deep breaths to calm down.

[.:Blu:.]

"Huh? What the- Reina's gone?!" Riohs jumped down from the roof and faced Selene. "Why? Why would she just run off like that? Arrg...." Riohs asked as he frustratingly covered his face with his left hand. "It doesn't make sense. Why would she just leave like that? What happened?" Riohs then heard Selene's last statement and immediately answered. "Of course I want her to go along! She's our friend isn't she? If you or Dante went missing I know I would try to find you guys too! Friends stick together and look out for each other.... or.... don't you view her as a friend? A comrade? Anything significant? Or are you probably just like Dante, and view others like casualties?...." Riohs asked.

 

-Meanwhile-

 

Saph, Gauge, and Laguna soon found Reina in a nearby alley. "Umm, excuse me miss, but have you seen a short guy with blue hair and an upbeat personailty anywhere?" Saph asked.

[CristalFlames]

Reina looked at them. "Are you talking about Rioh? Yeah. Why would you be looking for him?" She was ready to fight again if she must. Reina watched them trying to figure them out. She had never seen them around there before. She kept watching. Her hand on her weapons just in case. She couldn't relax any at all. "I know where he is but I see no reason to show you where he is. " Reina wasn't good with strangers. She was usually nice but she was still upset about being attacked just then. She couldn't trust anyone.

[Raiza]

After a while of attempting to fall asleep, Dante finally drifted to sleep. For about 10 minutes. The sound of Riohs talking outside had woken him up and he overheard what Riohs said. He can what he wants, he thought to himself while putting his wetboy armor back on. "Better go get Reina, if I want any sleep," he whispered to himself while jumping out if his window silently. He slipped through the dark streets and saw several men threatening a young girl. Wait... is that Reina? he thought to himself as she made quick work of the men, sending them sprawling in all directions. So she's a wetgirl then... he thought as several more people aproached her. He silently moved closer to them sticking to the shadows."...A short guy with blue hair and an upbeat personality anywhere?" Dante overheard. That's Riohs... Dante thought walking up to the group, his eagle soaring through the street and landing on his shoulder. "Why are you after Riohs?" Dante asked, concerned.

[.:Blu:.]

"You know Riohs?" Saph asked in excitement only to be interrupted by Gauge getting in the way. "Why aren't you going to tell us?! We need to know where he is!" Gauge yelled in anger. "Hey you can't talk to a girl like that, especially one that knows where Riohs is at!" Saph interrupted. "I'll do what I want!" Gauge yelled in response. Saph then put him in a headlock. Laguna then calmly walked over. "Sorry about those two.... I'm Laguna Riorre, and those two are my friends. We're looking for Riohs because he is also our friend. Please, won't you tell us where he is?" Laguna asked politely.

 

Saph then heard Dante's voice. "Huh? Ya know Riohs too? We're looking for him. He's our friend." Saph answered.

[CristalFlames]

"A friend...I see..." She looked away. Reina didn't know that Rioh knew so many people. No one really knew her anymore since she was no longer in the palace. She sighed. Reina started to walk off. She didn't like feeling crowded. She wanted to go with them but knew that with her around she would slow them down and get in the way. Reina didn't want to be like that. She just walked toward the palace by herself. She knew she was going to regret her choice but knew it was better than getting one of them hurt cause of her.

[.:Blu:.]

"Uhh.... Wait where you-" Laguna was interrupted by Gauge. "Tsch, let her go who needs her help. If she doesn't want to help us then we'll just find someone else to help. She's not worth the time...." Gauge stated as he crossed his arms and leaned against the wall. ".... You know Gauge, you should really be more considerate of other people's problems. Maybe she had a reason for leaving. Who are we to judge her? Anyways, Riohs still might be in town." Laguna said. "So do you know where we can find him?" Saph asked Dante.

[Raiza]

Dante watched Reina walk away and thought for a moment. "I'll tell you where Riohs is if you get her to come back. Riohs would like that," he said. These people don't look very dangerous, but Riohs can handle himself. Besides, he'd be happy if he saw Reina come back, he thought to himself while yawning. He was very tired now and needed some rest, considering how he hadn't slept in 3 days. He didn't really care about Reina or Riohs, or pretty much anyone, he just wanted to go to bed. He couldn't sleep because of Riohs making all the noise and panicking so he had come to get Reina, to shut him up.

[CristalFlames]

Two guards from the palace walked up to her. "Your the one causeing all the trouble in town. You're under arrest. Come with us." Reina was confused. "What? What are you talking about?" They grabbed her arms and tried to drag her away. Reina pulled to get free. "Let go of me!" She bit into one of their arms. She didn't let go of him. They started to hit her trying to get Reina to let go. Reina was mad now. She let go grabbing one of the guys arms and threw him into the other guard.

[.:Blu:.]

"Go get her? Forget it, I'm not a babysitter. C'mon guys we'll find Riohs on our own." Saph said as he began to walk off. "Is this what Riohs would've done?.... Just walk off when someone needs help?" Laguna asked. Saph suddenly stopped. "You do remember Riohs' motto, don't you?" Laguna asked. ".... Yeah.... You don't need a reason to help someone...." Saph replied. "We should probably try to find her and help her out." Laguna said as he walked off, followed by Saph. "Tsch, you guys are insane...." Gauge said as he followed them. "(Something's creepy about that other guy right there. Wonder what it is?)" Gauge thought to himself.

[CristalFlames]

"You guys forgot who I learned from!" They looked up. "My father is your captain! Don't forget that!" Reina told them. She didn't even pull her twin blades out to fight. She hated killing people. "So your the captain's daughter that went missing?" One of them asked. "Missing? I was kicked out." She was confused."Our captain said his daughter went missing when her mother yelled at her." Reina looked at them. "I see. Well you can tell father this. I am not coming back until I find the one I love." They stood up and nodded. "I guess we can't take you in now." Reina sighed.

[.:Blu:.]

"Where could that girl be? Sheesh, we got bigger things to worry about. Avith is planning something big, and I need Riohs help to sneak in to Avith." Saph said as he scratched his head. "Oh yeah, like you're the only person with problems around here." Gauge said with his arms crossed. "Would you two please.... Huh? Hey look over there. Isn't that her?" Laguna asked as he ran over. "Is there a problem here officers?" Laguna asked. Saph then ran over as well. "Hey you, we need you to come with us to the man from before." Saph said.

[CristalFlames]

They looked at them. "No. Not anymore." The guards answered. They walked off leaving Reina there with them. Reina looked at them. She sighs. "Fine...I just....didn't want to slow them down....I didn't want to be in the way...like he said..." She started to walk towards them. "Rioh is this way..." She showed them back to where the group was. She lead them to the room where they were. "There's Rioh..."

[DarkAngel787]

Selene knew in her gut that she should try to help Reina but her body dreadfully needed rest.

Early in the morning that day she had ridden hard to Sythgren, did her job, then she had help fight off a number of guards. Then to top it all off, she had ridden back to the Desrian capital at breakneck speed. It was lucky she hadn't broken her horse yet. She would never forgive herself if she had broken her beautiful horse Moondapple.

She was sleeping deeply, but unfortunately the dreams came.

 

She was sniffling, a little five year old. Her mother had come back to the house in one of her stupors. Her mother had been under the influence of a weed called Royalsbane, more commonly known as Cocaine in the modern world. She had stumbled into the house, screaming, and as usual had taken it out on her child. Her father was a nice man, she was told. He had died when Selene was at the meager age of one. Her mother then was immersed with a drug and another dangerous man.

"YOU STUPID CHILD!" Her mother yelled at her, as usual. "YOU DIDN'T MAKE ANY MONEY TODAY. YOU COULD SELL ALL YOUR TOYS IF YOU WANTED TO!"

"B-but...Mommy...I only have my doll left!" Selene had whimpered, holding up the scraggly item that was her only childhood toy that she had left.

"OFF IT GOES! WE'RE SELLING IT! HOW DARE YOU HIDE IT FROM ME!" her mother had yelled, and had slapped her across the face a couple of times.

Selene had cried. The day after was her birthday.

She ran away that day.

[.:Blu:.]

"Slow them down? Who are you talking about? You couldn't mean Riohs and some other people would you?" Saph asked curiosly. "So they're here at the inn huh? Fine then I'll have to teach Riohs a lesson for causing me to go through so much trouble." Gauge said, cracking his knuckles. "Thank you Miss, your help is appreciated." Laguna said.

 

"Well? Do you have an answer? Ugh.... I'm sorry for yelling like that. I just want to know do you consider the others or me as comrades are just people used for your liking. Arrg, man...." Riohs crossed his arms. "I can't speak to a girl like this. It doesn't feel right. Look Selene, I know you have your mission tommorow so I won't bother you anymore. Get some sleep, okay?" Riohs asked.

[Raiza]

Dante silently entered his room and locked the door. He got changed and got into bed hoping to get some sleep and rest. He soon fell to sleep, but he started to dream. He started to dream about the day he lost everything...

 

He was in handcuffs, being taken into the main court, he could hear screaming and shouting. Crowds surrounded him, attempting to throw things at him and beat him. The only thing stopping them was the guards, who were pushing back the crowd. In the middle of the square, a large stage stood, with several beams scaling each end. There was going to be an execution and he was next. His parents were up there, the rope being tightened to the necks. A tear fell down his face and dropped to the ground as the floor beneath fell, leaving them hanging. He glared at his old best friend who was among the gaurds in the tower, watching. He was the one who has cuased all of this, and he would die.

OOC: Just gonna start my post at where I was told everyone was... If I'm wrong, well, let me know somehow please.

Blud opened up the door to the some-what small inn at the capital city of the country he had currently wandered into; Desria. It was late, he was tired, and it had just started to drizzled slightly when he opened the door. He sighed and walked inside out of the pathtic amount of rain. 'Just great,' He thought to him self as he took off his bandana and shook the water out of his hair. 'I get caught in the rain as soon as... Actually who am I kidding? I waited for the rain to come before I walked in... It's fitting really. Matches my current mood.' Blud put his bandana back on and walked over to the person he assumed was running the Inn.

"Excuse me," Blud said in a dull and dreary voice. "Are there any rooms open?"

"Nope, sorry," said the man. "We're all full here."

Blud hung his head and sighed. He lifted his hand feebly and said, "Thanks anyways. Care if I stay until the rain stops?"

Without waiting for an answer, Blud turned and walked over to a table to sit by himself.

[DarkAngel787]

THe innkeeper watched with interest."Well, we do have acommodations if you're a...special one..." he muttered softly so that only Blud could hear. "You know...one of them assassin superiors?" Most of the city was afraid to actually say the word "wetboy" because they were afraid that once said the wetboys would come after them.

Selene woke at a ridiculous time, but this was when she usualy woke up. 3:00 AM.

She began to do her usual exercises in the morning: Pushups, situps, practice fighting. She was sweating but she used her Talent to mop it up.

[Navras]

Blud looked at the innkeeper, somewhat confused but not showing it in the slightest. Assassin superior...? he wondered to himself. Then it clicked in his head, and he knew instantly.

"Oh, you're referring to a wetboy and the reason you didn't say it is because of those ridiculous rumors about us being ghosts or something like that, correct?" Blud slowly stood up from where he was sitting, sighed and said, "Yeah, I'm a wetboy. But don't worry about the room... I'll just sit out in the rain for a while... I like it... really..."

[Raiza]

Dante slept, still dreaming. It was a different scene this time, before that day...

 

Dante stood proudly his parents, the crowd watching as he was going to be appointed Head of the Wetboys of Desria. His best friend, Isaac Alinus, watching nearby. Envy burned inside him, along with anger as his hand formed a fist. He should be Head of the Wetboys, not Dante and he going to make sure Dante wouldn't live long enough to be Head of the Wetboys.

 

Dante was with his girlfriend, Grace, when everything went wrong. "I'll be right back," Dante had said leaving her. He went to his room to get his coat, as it had started raining. He walked out of his room and down the stairs to see Grace lying on the floor, the rain water around her stained red with blood. He ran to her and found a small knife with a red jewel next to her. It was Isaac's knife. He had killed her. Suddenly men came running from all angles, surrounding him. He had been set up by Isaac and now it looked like Dante killed her. He saw his parents being carried away too. "What?! They haven't done anything wrong!" Dante had screamed attempting to fight the gaurds. But it turns out they weren't normal guards, they were Wetboys.

[DarkAngel787]

Selene looked up and was alarmed. That sounded like Dante's scream. She looked into his room but he was still sound asleep.

Huh. He must've screamed in his sleep. I wonder what he's dreaming about, she wondered, remembering her own dream with her mother and the drug. She shuddered and began to fight all the harder, creating a dummy to practice on with her own Talent.

She decided to go down for an early breakfast. It was already 5:00 AM.

[Navras]

Blud sighed and looked around, trying to find something that could tell him the time.

"Dose anyone know the time?" Blud asked, almost inaudibly, but just enough for people to turn his way. No one answered though. Blud sighed and turned towards the door. When he got there he opened it a crack and saw that it was now pouring outside.

"Maybe I'll take a walk... while this rain lasts at least..."

[DarkAngel787]

Selene looked up.

She immediately scanned him for any talent.

Yep. Another Wetboy.

"It's 5 AM. Why are you here, wetboy?" she said, neutral faced. She showed no hostility, but wasn't welcoming.

She looked outside.

"I hope you aren't the revenge that Mislet has sent me?" she said, confused.
