Company Matters [Open to Anyone][NR]

Something was going on.

Some mother fucker was hacking files. Whoever it was, they were damn good at it too. Whenever Alec tried to trace the signal, it looked as if someone in the Red Light District, the Ghetto and the Business area were all trying to get in at the same time. Whenever it looked like he was about to get a lock on to whoever it was, they jumped offline.

Using his own abilities to find whoever it was wasn't working either. He was drawing a total blank, something that didn't happen too often. It was like whoever it was was hiding behind some sort of new stealth that blocked everything?

Alec spent hours looking through the many video feeds; cameras placed all over Edge City. Hour after hour was spent looking from screen to screen, looking for anything out of the ordinary... Until the screen appeared with the dark dressed figure with the red V on his chest. He was wearing a cape and a black set of armor he'd never seen before. Alec calibrated his computer to search for all images of this strange individual.

The database was bringing up nothing on this guy. He'd put something in each district visited, some sort of computer part listed nowhere in the markets, legitimate or black. Alec didn't know what they did, but quickly came to the conclusion that whatever they were, they were scrambling the signals of his tracking device, making it hard to pinpoint who it was hacking him. Was this guy on the screen the culprit behind the hacks?

This guy was interesting, and brought a grin to Alec's face when he should have been pissed off. Alec really wanted to know about that armor he was wearing, and about how he was invisible to supernatural tracking abilities. So, while the computer continued to work to try and position the hacker, he would call a meeting, sending a message to his Company Employees, and also underground to any and everyone that would pay attention. The butlers downstairs at the front gates into Tower grounds were instructed to let people in and show them to the elevators that would lead them to the 1,000th floor and to his office. He had a plan. It was time to see who was brave, and who was just blowing out hot smelly breath.

Tired, so tired.

She had pushed herself too far, too hard. Too soon. Far too soon. She knew she was powerful, she had known it since she first started showing signs of her abilities when she was a very little girl... but she had never done half of the things she had done recently before, and it was beginning to take a toll on her body and her mind. Especially her mind. Demitria's brain had been such a chaotic place to be, even for the brief sixty seconds she had spent in it when she returned her back to her normal state, and restored her memories... So much chaos, so much noise...

All she wanted to do was to take a nap, another one. Or possibly drink more hot chocolate.

Oh wait, she still had a full cup in her hand: complete with about twenty marshmallows and whipped cream, the cup itself super large. She took a long pull from the straw, sucking up more of the warm sweet liquid as she entered into Mr. Kane's office. She closed the door behind herself, took a glance around, and then stepped off to the side.

Mr. Kane had called a meeting which she wasn't about to miss no matter how tired she felt, which was the only reason she was here now, compared to downstairs, in bed, or filling her mind with more pointless sugar in an attempt to keep herself awake. She took another glance around, wondering if she was the first of however many to show up... She pushed her black hair out of her face and then took another sip of her hot drink.

He'd been planning to return home; he really had, but these new events... they interested him. He'd wanted to stop by Niala's rooms so that he could thank her; it was about the only reason he wasn't underwater heading home finally. Rest was wanted; needed. Time with his family; before the next asinine event hit. This wasn't asinine; and in a way it effected his family; sort of. Convoluted logic, but legitimate. From the suite he had been sharing with his mate and child he left; down the hall and into the lift; not liking the looks the security gave him as he flashed the guest ID that still gave him access to the floor with Alec's room. Given he was only using the normal hallways and channels to get there as a courtesy; yeah. He could do without the looks.

Maybe if he was more human looking; versus his more comfortable hybrid form. Oh well.

A knock at the door; entrance without waiting for acknowledgement. Offending to human sensibilities; but not to his own, not when he treated Alec the same way he treated any high ranked member of his own society. Maybe not the nicest way; but he violated none of the customs he knew. Flynn was too old to care about learning new ones; definitely not the 'modern', constantly changing ones.

"Kane. I have heard you are in need of assistance. I am... curious; you need trackers? I would be willing to offer my services; if needed."

Polite, close enough. He was sincere enough; he was a master tracker of old, he didn't need a bunch of random abilities to let him find things. Merely a scent, a signature of what he needed to find; or a just the information to find it. Close enough.

"Teeheehee..."

She was rather enjoying all of her little sister's ooh's and aaah's that came from her each time she rode in the elevator, which is where Cala was walking out of at the moment: Devon secured on her shoulders. Mister Kane had wanted a meeting, and she wasn't about to leave the girl behind in their suite - she had far too many monsters still living in her head to allow for such a thing... last thing any of them needed was some little girl suddenly screaming her head off because she thought she saw a shadow move wrong.

Besides, until she knew that asshole who had been after her sister as a tasty snack was dead, she wasn't taking any chances... Darkman Tower or otherwise.

She walked down the hall and paused outside of the office door, she reached forward while keeping one arm secured around her sister's legs so she didn't topple backwards. She opened the door and stepped inside, ducking slightly to ensure her sister didn't bump her head on the door frame as they entered. She pushed lightly with her foot to close the door and then removed her sister from her shoulders and placed her, standing, on the ground next to her, before looking with her mismatched eyes to Kane, wondering what this meeting was all about.

"Ello, ello!"

Devon got to ride up the elevator on her sister's shoulders, and she couldn't be happier. It had been about a week since she'd been awoken from her very long slumber, and already she knew and awful lot about the world around her. Including how to press the buttons on the elevator, which she had got to do! And that.. well, that had about made her day.

The lollipop in her hand, overly large, and about the size of her head, had helped to make the other part of her day. As her sister removed her from her shoulders after entering into the office Devon reached up on hand, grabbing a hold of her sisters shirt, while stepping slightly behind her, like any sort of scared child would in a new environment. She was brave enough to be here, but not brave enough - at least at the moment - not to be hiding behind her sister halfway, licking at her lollipop in otherwise complete silence. She'd come out in a moment, so long as no one started yelling, threatening people, or otherwise being scary.

So, this was the place?

The rumors spoke of a tower, impossibly tall. This had to be it. Blue eyes stared around, spear in hand as he stepped into the building. The people around looked at him, some even reaching for weapons as he made his way inside. "I'm here looking for work..."

Miraculously, the people stepped aside.

This.. should not have worked. Letting an unknown, obviously armed man into the home of your boss? Disgraceful. But this wasnt Ryuukishi's tower. Perhaps the rules here were lax?

Oh well.

Ding!

Armor clinking slightly, stepping into the enclose space of the elevator. The soft hum of the engines working to take him up the 1000th floor...

Destiny was already within her father's office, leaned up against the glass behind him and off to the right as she had been when Demitria had been here before - before she had got her memories back. Arms were folded across her chest and she was just standing there, silently, waiting to see who all was going to show.

When Cala entered she grinned. She hadn't seen the female in quite some time, and to see some little girl with her - that looked oddly like a smaller version of herself - she figured the rumors had been true enough: Cala had found her sister. She took a close look at the girl: human, which was surprising, but then again, Cala was full of surprises, perhaps she was waiting to turn the girl later? When she was a bit older?

She turned her attention to Niala, giving a nod in greeting, and taking note of the large cup of sugar the girl had in her hand: she hoped she wasn't about to be sent out to do anything else - she looked as if she were about to fall asleep.

Then she turned her gaze to the rest, curiously, taking note of Flynn's reappearance, and someone else... She kept herself quiet, waiting for her father to speak.

One by one they all showed. Some faces were familiar, some were fresh. Didn't much matter. Flynn was here again too, and he looked alot better than he did the last time he was in this office. Had he found his purpose again? Alec grinned at the thought. Perhaps he'd even participate in what he had planned. Alec stood up from the leather recliner and walked around in front of his desk.

"First I have to take care of a quick Company matter. I've noticed everything you've been doing Niala. All of your efforts haven't gone unnoticed. If you want, i'm promoting you to Underboss, my right hand. You're an important part of The Company now, and i'm proud of you. If you want time off, that's fine with me. I'm not expecting you to participate in what I have planned, but you can if you want."

Alec knew the girl didn't have any family; no parent figure to tell her good job and give her a pat on the back, so he aimed to be that person. He meant every word he said, and those with the ability to read emotions and see if someone was telling the truth or lying would see that Alec was a man of his word. He put both hands on her shoulders with a grin, his healing factor seeping into her being and repairing the damage, mental and physical. Niala would probably feel as if she just ate a bunch of sugar.

Angelic Healing Factor:

"Now... as for the rest of you... Thank you for arriving on such short notice. It's good to see you again Flynn, and tracking is exactly something I need right now..."

Alec reached behind him to press several buttons on his desk, which brought up a large holographic 3d image of the individual dressed in black with the cape and the red V on his chest. The image was life-sized, next to him so everyone could see.

"Someone has been hacking into my files. This person knows about alot of you, what you look like, your abilities, so fourth and so on. I believe this is the person doing it. He left signal scramblers in several districts, and every time I try to trace his signal, he jumps offline before I can zero in on him. I thought of going and removing the scramblers, but he'd run away and i'd never find him. There's something strange about this guy... when I try to use my senses or psychic abilities to find him, I run into a dead end. Its like this guy is invisible, or has something to hide with... This guy is something else. He looks like a little kid too. So here's my offer... I have 20,000 credits for the person that brings him here, to this office, alive. I really wanna talk to this dude. Hell, i'll even offer up 10k right this minute. But remember. Do. Not. Kill him.

Alec looked out the window, in the direction of New Vegas, or Ground Zero as it was now known as. Something had happened over there. Something came out of that portal, and built a large floating island. Thousands upon thousands of the creatures that lived there were converging upon this island, worshiping whoever it was that created it. Alec wasn't about to leave Edge, or go running the streets in pursuit of vigilantes. He had to keep an eye on this place. It looked like she was creating an army...

"I don't know if any of you have noticed... but some strange floating island has appeared over what used to be New Vegas... There's some female out there, and she's gathering the minions that inhabit the surrounding areas. I'd go after this dude myself, but, someone has to keep an eye on things... Anything could happen, and it could affect us all. So... any of you up for the task?"

Niala blinked at the Boss, these words had been the last she had expected. She had simply been doing what she could do, trying to be as helpful as possible instead of just laying around the suite Alec had given her being more of a burden then a help. His words made her smile, despite her shock. She gave a nod. "Thank you.", she said softly. An Underboss... her? That was sweet, more than sweet, and she'd make sure Alec knew he had made the right choice. And she could go take a vacation? That sounded nice... maybe she'd go spend some time on Amaranth's island, enjoying the beach, or going hiking, or off exploring somewhere with Nanalie... yup, fun times.

And then suddenly she felt as if the hot chocolate had kicked in and then some... but wait, she had just started on the cup, and it had been her first. No, this had to be coming from the Boss, he had healed her. Her smile turned into a grin and she said "Thanks.", again.

She took another sip of her hot chocolate threw the straw as she listened to the Boss begin to describe what was going on, paying close attention. He had said she didn't have to involve herself, but if no one else offered to help... she would probably end up going herself. She understood him not wanting to leave, especially with a new place appearing elsewhere... it took a lot of magic, or ability, or whatever to create something like that - so whoever it was had to be powerful.

Hnnn... hacking files. These creatures laud their technological superiority; yet they had such weak security. Anyone with access to a ancient system and a data connection could break into the stores of knowledge they kept floating around the wire and silicone based servers. When they made the switch to crystalline or biological based computing; he would be willing to learn their ways. Otherwise; no point. He had his ancient data node, the connection in his skull still worked. He had all the access to knowledge he needed.

"Tracking is my specialty; or one of them. I can find nearly anything; so long as it exists fully in this realm of existence."

He had to smile at the praise given to Niala; he was going to be heaping some on her at a later moment himself. She had done wonderful; she deserved to be celebrated for a while.

A glance to the corner; a head tilt to the angelic woman; they would need to talk soon; he felt he needed to apologize to her for his erratic behavior before; his cowardice and insanity and all the horrible things he had done. After this was ended; yes.

The other two females... related. Vampires; he could smell it. Or... the elder was. She just gave the impression of Malkavian insanity; without even trying. The younger... close relation; very close. A sibling, maybe even a daughter? He didn't know; he wasn't sure he cared. So long as the elder was.... civil; as much as a Malkavian could be; they would get along well enough.

The last... familiar. A smell, a feeling... fire, air, power...

Dragon-kin? Sort of...

No; not dragon-kin. Too young; the aura was wrong.

Well well well... a Ryuukishi then? The draconic almost cousins of the biskmatar. It was rather interesting to see one; to know they had survived as well. This day was just full of surprises.

"The island in the wastelands... it appeared while I was leaving. I thought I was seeing falsehoods; until I realized that others could see it. I would offer information; but I have none. I was... not in the best of conditions to gather intel while I was there. However... for what it is worth... I do believe that whatever it the island is uses geothermal updrafts to maintain itself... the winds where being controlled; or so it seemed. Again, I cannot be sure of this; but if I am right; it does give us avenues of approach if the need to 'take care of business' arises."

Cala glanced down at her sister, who seemed to be trying to hide behind her. She blinked a few times and then shrugged. If her sister wanted to hide, she would be what her sister hid behind it was as simple as that. So, for the moment she remained silent, watching as Alec showered the girl named Niala with praise for all of the hard work she had done. Yes, she had heard about that... Niala was the reason Demi was back in top form, better than she had been before she had died. Yes, Niala deserved a lot of praise. Though, Cala couldn't help but wonder how she survived mentally in Demi's head for that long... she could still remember what had happened to the person who had tried getting into her own head, it hadn't been pretty.

Then she listened in silence to Alec describe the situations going on. Someone was gathering information on them, joy. Not that Cala cared much, she had never bothered to keep what she was a secret: the only part that agitated her slightly was the idea that this could pose some sort of danger to her sister, and that she wasn't going to tolerate well. It was the reason she had turned that bastard vampire's jaw to dust in a single blow. No, no, she would definitely be keeping close to her sister. Unlike the rest of them her sister was human, her sister was fragile... her sister was easily stolen and to hell with that idea, her sister was going to remain alive so long as Cala remained in this world.

She reached back, placing a hand on her sister's head and remaining silent, looking to the rest.. wondering if anyone was going to volunteer to go take care of this situation.

After a moment, seeing that no one in particular seemed especially scary or threatening, or as if they were going to cause trouble, and as she felt her sister place a hand on her head, she stepped sideways, coming up to stand right next to her sister. She still kept her hold on the hem of her sisters shirt with her left hand, the right holding the stick of the giant lollipop. She tilted her head back, looking up at her sister, wondering if she was going to go and agree to go help with the problem that the angel from the park had spoke of.

She wasn't totally scared anymore to stay here by herself, so long as she stayed in the tower... and didn't get carried away playing with the electronics... or the light switch, she loved the light switch.

But, seeing as she could personally do nothing to help, and could only wait to see if her sister decided to help or not, she kept silent and continued to lick at the head-sized lollipop in front of her.

The male crouched in a corner, Wrath held horizontal across his lap. His head tilted, forked toungue flicking out to taste the air.

Oh. My. Dragons.

The air... such a bounty of scents. Something sweet, and the wonderous taste of angels; something he'd only had the pleasure of tasting once before. But there was something else, blue eyes flickered over to one of the people present, particularly Flynn. He felt strange, a sort of old power. Another lick of the air would reveal the answer: Daoine. So, there was actually one of the left, beond the one Biskmatar he'd come across several times? Well...

The angel was speaking: mentioning things about a hacker; someone manipulating technology to achieve certain effects.

"If you cannot stop him from stealing the information, why not cut off access to the information?" It seemed logical enough; if you could not protect something destory it so no one else could use it. "He's clearly smart. If he's taking it, take the whole system offline so he cannot get anymore."

The barest flicker of a smile formed across her face as she watched her father praise Niala on all that she had done. She personally was still working on a gift for the girl: a sort of thank-you present for restoring her best friend back to her old self, with many upgrades. Yes, she had felt that extra power buzzing off of Demitria, it had felt like the girl was constantly giving off a static charge now, and that was with most of her power masked. She could only imagine what it would feel like if Demtria stopped shielding herself.

She then listened carefully as her father explained the situation with the hacker, and then with the sudden addition to Ground Zero. Yes, things seemed to be heating up again... She reached into her pocket for a moment, pulling out a small touch-screen cellphone. Not the most useful method of communicating, given the fact that she could telepathically speak to people, but for this purpose it would do. Her thumbs flew over the letters for a moment, typing out a quick message to her daughter of all people, before the phone slipped back into her pocket and she returned to folding her arms across her chest.

She looked between each person in the room every so often, paying extra special attention to the male that she didn't know.. she didn't trust strangers.

No one had really volunteered to do anything but Flynn, which was surprising. No one was jumping at the sound of 20k credits. Alec was staring to think he'd have to handle this one on his own too. He was irritated, but he kept himself in check for now. He decided to respond to the person with the spear.

"Yeah, I thought of doing that sir, but if I turn everything off then I wouldn't be able to try and get a bead on him, because he'd probably run, hide, and never be heard of again... I'm trying to bait him--"

The computer beeped, and then it appeared that his efforts were beginning to pay off. Alec went back behind the desk and began to type. The Hacker was online again, but hopped off again just like he'd done all day. This time, it didn't matter.

"From the looks of things...The area i've been able to figure out where this guy is points to Murder INC headquarters. My system casts a "net" across the entire city, and every time this guy gets online, the net closes a little. It gets smaller and smaller around INC HQ."

Alec had been meaning to go out there and have a look around, but he'd kept putting it off. He'd definitely have too now, and erase any files or anything left behind that people could use. He never expected to come across a hacker or anything of the sort. A mistake he'd have to learn from so that it didn't happen again.

"He could still be there, right now...or at least, he could have left something behind that leaves a bread crumb trail back to where ever he hides out. I don't offer up this kind of money for these kids of jobs very often. I'll even sweeten the pot some too: a General position just opened for the person who brings this guy to me, along with the 20k. Any of you think you got what it takes?"

Well, at least someone had spoken up about helping. That took a bit of the pressure off of her shoulders. She wanted to be helpful, she wanted to prove she could do what was needed of her... but she didn't want to do it all. She needed a break, and the Boss had said she could have one, so that was what she was intending to do. So, she hoped that whoever ended up volunteering, especially as the Boss made the pot even sweeter, had some good luck on their side.

There was a lot of credits on the line, and now her old position. That was definitely a good deal just to have to chase some guy down and bring him back to the Boss without killing him. She wondered who would end up being the one to do it...

"The offer is rather generous." Agreement was real; that was a lot of currency in the city; one could live quiet well for a fair while on that; a high position on top of that would guarantee a comfortable life. He was not in need of any of it; he was happy to reside on the island that Amaranth ruled; he technically held a high rank in her court, but that was because he was considered a protector of the island; and one of the more powerful ones at that. Or had been; with everything that had happened, there where new, more powerful beings there to help. He was fine with it, too; it meant his daughter was safer, and there was more peace for them to enjoy.

"I have not been to your former headquarters; but if you would be willing to provide a current enough map of the area; I can get to work. I need only study one for a few moments; my memory for maps is rather well developed. I shouldn't have any issues; unless you have something that I need to know. Precautions and the like."

A roll of his shoulders, the flash of a rune on his person; his bow and quiver appearing already slung over his shoulder; both of his blades at his waist held by a simple white cloth sash. No threat, nothing but moving the items from the storage rune to their normal place. His armor would be left for later; used if needed. He doubt he would; against a human. Still; ready to be quickly summoned; if the being surprised them.

Cala's grip shifted upon her sister's head to her shoulder, mismatched eyes flashing over to the male who had made his weapons appear: she knew who he was, simply because she knew Demitria very well - being her friend and all, despite Flynn and herself having never been formally introduced. But, she was still slightly jumpy around people, at least with her sister still human, and breakable.

She personally wasn't going to involve herself in the matter unless specifically asked. She had no reason to enter into it if others could take care of it, and could continue to use her time elsewhere, like ensuring her sister was prepared for the world she'd woken up in, and that she felt safe. "I will only step into the matter if I'm absolutely needed... if not I will remain here and ensure my sister is well looked after."

Her hand returned to her sister's head and she ruffled her blond hair playfully, grinning in that same unhinged sort of way she always did: but it was entirely nonthreatening. She had no reason to threaten anyone, after all. She just happened to have a few too many loose screws in her head... or lost marbles, depending on which way you wanted to put it.

So, her sister was going to stay here with her unless asked otherwise. That was nice, very nice. While she knew the names and such of a few people in the building, she only knew her sister particularly well, so she had been clinging to her for the past week since she arrived. And it would seem she would continue to get to do just that. It might have been selfish of her, but she didn't care.

She just kept licking her lollipop, glancing at Niala every so often... wondering what all a small girl like herself had done, she only looked a few years older than Devon herself. Perhaps... perhaps it was time to make a new friend?

"I have no need for money, nor a 'position'." Twas true. He had want for little things in this world, save for a comfortable place to sleep. "I'll take the job, however." Blue eyes glanced over to the Daoine, taking note of the appearance of the bow. Curious. Juding by residue of energy, runic.

"Im not much of a tracker, but I can possibly flush him out for someone to capture."

That tongue flickered out, those blue eyes watching the crowd.

'Well, good. Glad to see two volunteers spoke up...', she found herself thinking as she looked at the two males. She understood where Cala was coming from with not wanting to step in right away. She had heard rumors, lots of them, and most of them all spoke of her sister having been sleeping with the dead for a very long time - so the fact that her sister took top priority in her mind was understandable. In fact, Cala was acting almost sane when it came to the safety and security of her sister... and Cala sane was something she had never seen before.

Odd... but nice.

She shifted slightly in her position of leaning against the window, feeling the familiar vibrate of her cellphone going off. She slipped her right hand into her pocket and pulled the small device out. She opened up the message back, brow furrowed for a moment as she did so. After another moment she sent a quick reply back, her face relaxing, before slipping it back into her pocket again.

She returned her lightning blue gaze to the room at large.. hoping silently that the pair would be able to succeed in the task put before them...

Alec nodded his head. It would be Flynn, and this other strange individual, Ryuukishi. Alec didn't know about him, but he knew OF him, just as he knew of anyone else who inhabited his Grand Daughter's island. He went back behind his desk and took a seat again, typing in several commands. Credits were automatically loaded to Flynn's account. Next, he'd put up a map of Edge City, indicating where INC HQ was by a flashing section to the northeast of the metropolis.

"10k is in your account, Flynn. It's yours if you get him or not. The other 10 will be waiting for you when you guys bring this kid back here to me. I'll understand if you have to beat his ass some, but try not to over-do it. Ryuukishi, you tagging along for free won't be forgotten either, and your assistance is appreciated. I can't offer up much intel on this guy, except to say that he has some kind of armor on i've never seen before, and it looks like he can glide with that cape he wears. He seems pretty fast, and like I said before, he's doing something to make himself invisible, even to supernatural abilities. Anything else you'll have to find out the hard way. Good luck you two, and try not to make too much of a mess..."

Alec lit another "cigar." How was this gonna turn out? He'd have to turn on some of his screens and watch this. And what about the chick out in Ground Zero? what was she planning? What was she doing? Nothing, for now. But there was always a satellite pointed at the area, keeping a close eye...

"If there are no more questions, this meeting is adjourned. Thank you all for your company."

Seeing that there was nothing left to do, and nothing else she had to say to the Boss, she figured it was time to pack herself up an overnight bag with all of her art supplies and other things, and perhaps go and take a short little vacation to Sugure no Shima. It was a lovely place after all, and she would get some seriously good drawing time in. Maybe she'd even draw up a new creature to summon.

"Well then, I think I'm going to head out to Sugure no Shima and go take a little vacation... get some quality drawing time in.."

With that said she turned and walked out of the office, heading downstairs to her room to go pack and then prepare to leave...

"A fair enough condition, Kane. I shall return as soon as possible." He wasn't one to toy with prey usually; unless this person was able to entertain him in some form, he would end this chase quickly and be done with it. He was tired of the city; although he wasn't above taking a quick detour to say goodbye to Snow after this was all said and done.

To the others, a small bow of his head; acknowledging them as he would anyone; the added dip of his ears a signal that stated he was offering them a wish of a peaceful journey to wherever they would be going next; rather formal for him, but it worked. His attention hovered on the dragon-born, the Ryuukishi that had offered his own services. He would make for an interesting partner in this; if he so choose. "Dragon-kin, you are willing to work together, yes?" To everyone else; the sound would be guttural, growled and harsh; almost like the sound of earth scraping against earth, rocks falling; the tongue of the dragons spoken through a throat not truly meant for it. Understandable; if not the most eloquent dialect of the species.

"I would meet you at the building; if you wish. Otherwise... please be careful, and stay out of my way. I have no reason to harm you; but my skills in combat can lead to... accidental friendly fire."

A final nod back to Alec before he turned and walked out; he would make his way to the old INC building alone; he needed time to think, to plan; best done alone. If the Ryuukishi decided to take up his offer; they could confer at the site. Otherwise; he was working alone, and not bothered by it at all.

-Exit-

She watched Niala walk out, obviously off to go start some wonderful vacation: that she deserved, very well, and then watched Flynn do the same. She glanced at Alec, figuring if there was nothing else she might as well be on her way, too. Head off to go teach her sister some other wonderful thing... while keeping a close eye on her for that damn so-called vampire that wanted a piece of her.

"Come on, Devon... let's go learn about other stuff."

She picked her sister back up, placing the girl up on her shoulders once more, which was where she seemed to like to be, claiming it made her feel tall or something, and turned to leave...

-Exit unless stopped.-
