Fragility of the Mind

"Yeah... She left the room after his comment... She seemed very distressed..." Videor replied, sadly, continuing,"I hope she's alright."

"So...he hurt the two people closest to me, he's in a relationship with someone who enjoys eating people, and he nearly killed my best friend? Am I right?" Leana asked, her voice neutral. She was leaning against the wall now, looking down at the floor with her arms crossed over her chest.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 20:05

"Yeah... I'm sorry Leana..." Videor replied, though he was a bit confused at her reaction. She was taking this a lot better then he had thought...

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 20:16

Leana said nothing for several moments, her eyes closed. When she opened them she had a dangerous look in her dark eyes before standing up straight and turning to Videor.

"Come with me," she said in a low voice as she walked into a nearby room.

(i know what has happened... lolol, sorry for randomly appearing again, school was a bitch D:)

Raine saw Ariel walk out, not knowing it was Leana, and walked in, finding Gabrielle. She sat down on the floor and looked at her dryly.

"Someone's looking rattled, and it's not me," was all she said as she went to examining her nails.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 20:20

Videor nodded, following Leana.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 20:26

When Videor had entered, Leana closed the door shut and turned to face Videor, her expression the same.

"Whatever you know about Ariel you better throw out the window," she started in a low, slightly angry tone. "We are nothing alike, although we do have one thing in common. Do you know what that is?"

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 20:28

Gabrielle looked down at her own dry nails, and sighed. Ignoring her statement seemed like the best of options. "Raine, do you know something I don't, that I'm supposed to know? Somehow I feel awfully out of the picture here."

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 20:28

Videor had a few ideas, but kept a straight face as he replied,"No, what may that be?"

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 20:32

"If someone hurts the people closest to us then they will pay," she answered, her voice dripping with venom. "We handle it in different ways, but we both make sure that whoever hurt our friends is dealt with." She glared at Videor and clenched her jaw, though she wasn't angry at him.

She looked at Gabrielle again, slight burning curiosity laced in her tone.

"And what sort of 'something' would I know and not you? I can't imagine anyone spilling their secrets to me, I'm not exactly the favourite of the bunch."

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 20:42

Gabrielle shrugged and looked at Raine. "Me neither. That's why I asked." She decided she'd respond to only what she wanted to hear. It was the most pragmatic of options, but inside of her she felt a little sorry.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 21:00

Videor lightly nodded as he replied,"I agree... To an extent..."

"But what did you have in mind?" He thought afterwords.

Udo back walked aimlessly through the mall for a time, all the while working his way back to the ATM. Just as he expected, the skinny pickpocket was working at the machine. He appeared frantic and frustrated; he probably found guessing Udo's pin more difficult than he'd anticipated.

Udo smirked before walking up behind him. He tapped his cane against the floor to get the boys attention. He turned around before exhibiting a wide-eyed stare followed by a brusque attempt to run. Udo simply let out the bottom of his cane and tripped him up. Udo set his suitcase down and walked up to the boy.
"Not a bad lift, mein jünger." Udo said with a smug grin as he offered the boy a hand up.
The boy accepted with hesitation and dusted himself off once he was on his feet. He looked up to Udo's expectant outstretched hand. In which, the boy placed Udo's wallet.

Udo continued. "You might've got away with it, if your approach wasn't so deliberate. No subtlety."
The boy wasn't convinced. "What do you know, huh?"
"Keineswegs." Udo replied, before pulling his money card out of the ATM and slipping it into his pocket. He stepped forward and placed a rolled up wad of loose bills left over from Udo's recent purchases. "Now go. Buy something to eat, and leave everyone's wallets where they are."

Udo turned from the boy, back in the direction he'd left Alevon.
"Your next slip-up might be your last. Quick hands are useless behind iron bars." Udo added before picking up his suitcase, leaving the boy with his wad of money. He thumbed through them, straightening them out, as he counted; nearly seventy-five dollars. He was dumbstruck as he watched Udo limp away into the crowds mid day shoppers weaving around.

Alevon turns to Udo
"Ah, welcome back. Did you enjoy your leave?"

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 23:14

Udo laughed. "You could say it was entertaining. Any success with the recruiting?"

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 23:15

"Yes, we have several people that possess good abilities"

(verified)

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 23:28

Udo nodded.
"Very well. I'm finished here, so I am going to return to the base. Will you be going as well?"

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 23:31

"I still need to recruit some more and take care of some more business...but if you'd like to return now, perhaps you have a phone, so we may contact each other later?"

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 23:38

"Well yes, I bought a cellphone, but it has neither been charged or activated, so at the moment, I don't know the number." Udo replied with a shrug. "I'll have to give it to you when you go back."

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 23:43

"That defeats the purpose of my attaining it, but alright. See you, then"

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Fri 17 Dec 2010 - 23:48

Udo laughed. "Only for the moment. Auf Wiedersehen, mein fruende."
He nodded before turning and backtracking to the base. He followed the route Alevon used precisely and was soon returned to the elevator access. Udo sighed as he rocked and shuddered in the elevator. Once it stopped he slid the door open, grabbed his suitcase and headed back into the main area of the base.

Alevon continues about his business, collecting people to fight for their cause and such

...well, this is going nicely...only one or two more stops, and I think we're ready...then so it begins...

Raine just stared at Gabrielle for a few more lengthly moments before sighing loudly and flopping down on the ground, wincing slightly in pain.

"Well, this conversation is SUPER interesting," she muttered, sarcasm present in her tone.

Subject: Re: Fragility of the Mind Sat 18 Dec 2010 - 14:56

Emir woke up, standing up from his bed and patting his suit as he walked out of his room and waved goodbye to Nicole as she waved back.

He walked where Gabrielle and Raine, yawning very loudly.

"Hey Raine, haven't see you for long time." He said.
