Reselda looked between Jessy and Kala a minute before looking down, "I...Well I have the entire city to live in. Or most of it. There are some areas the gangs don't want you messing with but other then that I live where I want." she answered with attempted cheerfulness, deciding she could trust them, though she didn't know why. twisted

Kala, remembering she forgot water, used this as a chance to propose an idea that had just crossed her mind. Why don't you come live with us? We have enough space, the apartment is small, but we do have that extra office we could fix up really easily, there's plenty of work to to be done, you'd get all the food you want, we're not exactly hurting when it comes to money despite where we live, mind you....the neighbor hood is relatively quiet, gangs are not usually a problem... She knew she was rambling, but she didn't want to give Reselda the chance to really object at all, and worried she wasn't making much sense at all. So...what do you say?

Reselda jerked her head up at the offer, shock becoming the only apparent emotion, "I don't know. I don't want to be a bother and well there's.... she started before becoming silent again as she looked down at her hands. twisted

Kala put her elbows on the table, resting her chin in her right hand. She'd caught the girl's hesitation at the end of her sentence, and wondered if the girl had powers of her own...but let it go for now, and pretended that she'd not caught on. You won't be a bother...if I thought you were going to be one, I'd of handed you over to the cops. And no, this not a pity party either....I'm serious about this offer.

Reselda looked up searching for any signs that Kala wasn't telling the truth but not seeing any signs she sighed softly, "I guess I could stay for at least a little bit." she commented quietly. twisted

Then it's settled. Maybe the three of us could go shopping this evening and get the room all settled for you....in the meantime, eat up. Kala grinned, happy that the girl had finally accepted their offer. She knew Cain wouldn't object to it either, knowing that she had a pretty good intuition when it came to people. He trusted her instincts.

Reselda shyly found a place to sit and slowly ate a little of what was given her though most remained on the plate. She seemed to have closed herself off once again almost as if there was something she wanted to say but was afraid to. twisted

Cain came forward, to buy some time. He knew both of the cops, and he set them at ease, using his natural born charisma and the polished skills of a born salesman. He actually made a sale with one of them, accepted a coffee date to appraise the other's rare print collection, an appreciable side-business. When the two left, he knew he had done well. Cain wondered what the three goyles were doing above him, and noticed it was lunchtime. Normally, he would lock the door, but today he just elected to close it and draw the shade. Anyone who could come in would trip the bell and let them know they had come in. Cain placed a small sign Be Back in a Bit in the window and mounted the stairs. A vague pain ached his arm, but he paid it no mind, attributing it to stress. Very little could hurt him, anyway. Noticing his sweet wife, he kissed her and grabbed a ham salad sandwich, which she knew was his fave. Kissing her again, he wolfed down the sandwich, grabbing a Stewart's orange Cream pop from the fridge. After he had washed it down, he asked, Well, I take it we have a houseguest? Little did he know, his arm was soaked in blood...

Reselda stiffened a bit as Cain stepped into the room but continued to pick at her food moving it around on the plate more then eating it, ^I should be okay as long as they don't find out the truth about me.^ she thought to herself as she made sure she wasn't showing any emotion. twisted

onyxfire Etain asked gently, her smile remaining warm as her eyes danced with laughter. She couldn't help but feel kinda sorry for the girl who seemed so nervous and scared. ninja Katrina knew she was fumbling over her words but what exactly could she say? My village wisewoman told me that in this country there was a girl with an extraordinary gift for the truth that could help me to stop accidentally killing people? It sounded crazy no matter what language you used.

Etain blinked slightly. She knew this girl was hiding something about why she was here but decided to let it go. It really wasn't any of her business anyways, she offered politely, she added offereing a hand. ninja

Cristiana walked through the town with one bag over her shoulder. She sighs as she wondered how many more towns must she search before she finds them. Ticking her necklace back into her shirt she walked around a street corner and noticed a couple of punks hassling someone. "Hey Stop right there!" With that she rushed at the punks easily KOing one and then did a spin kick KOing the other one. The lady then came up to her and thanked her gratiously but Chris didn't mind, she never did. It just felt right to her to help those getting bullied. She then continued on down the sideway, nowhere to go, nothing to do just there.

Shadow stepped to the building's edge. Looking down he saw news trucks pulling to the side of the road. Cameras rose up and caught a glimpse of the Dark Avenger, only seeing a figure in the bright sunlight no one would be able to tell it was one of the cities guardians. Cameras wern't the only thing trained on Shadow as red dots covered the Shadow suit. Shadow jumped out of view of the gunners as a voice filled the air,
"This is the Omega City Police Department. We know you were attempting to remove artifacts from the musiem unlawfully. You are ordered to surrender and come peacefully or we will use force."
Ken snickered to himself,
"They still say that, no one in this city ever listens."
Like an actual shadow he moved across the roof of the building, Shadow set up his three electric Shrangs on building transformers and set the electic charge on remote from the suit. In the distance Shadow could hear the sound of a Police Chopper getting closer. He knew that if he didnt work fast the eye in the sky would have a fix on his location at all times. Shadow crawled across the ground to hide himself from the sharpshooters. He could see some of the sharp shooters setting up they're weapons inside near by office buildings. Shadow pulled out what looked like a punching dagger from the back of his belt. Thinking to himself,
"Good thing the suit comes with a backup plan. One shot MacInnis, make it count."
Standing up, Shadow activated the Shrang's electic charge. It overloaded the transformers causeing a massive light show above the building. Shadow hit a button on the side of the grapling launcher. The blade flew through the air and dug itself into a building. Releaseing the button the launcher began to recoil as Shadow lept off the building and swung across the street. One sharp shooter caught sight of the fleeing hero. Firing a single shot the bullet grazed Shadows arm and tore through the suit. Ken now knew that the suit's shock armor system, which cushoned incomming projectiles and stopped most bullets was probably offline as well. Shadow broke through a window of the building across the street. Not experienced in this type of activity (he ushaly used the boots) Ken messed up his footing on the landing. This caused him to roll into a metal desk knocking it back into a cubical wall. The frail wall broke and caused the other two cubical walls to fall ontop of the desk. Pushing the rubble aside Shadow stood up and moved to the changeing room of a gym underneath the deserted office. After breaking into quite a few lockers Ken finially found a suit that would fit him as well as a large gym bag. Leaving the gym Ken noticed an entire SWAT team passing him heading to search for the thief. Sneaking out the back Ken walked down the street. Store after store refused to let him use they're phone. Ken walked up to an antique shop. Opening the door an old fashioned metal bell rang. Ken walked in the show and walked over to the front counter.
"Hello"

Kala smiled as her husband came into the kitchen, and returned his kiss rather happily. She was still worried about Reselda, but knew they wouldn't win the girl's full trust for quite awhile...in fact, she debated sharing the secret of her own powers with the girl, if only to help her feel more at ease. She took a sip of milk to wash down her own ham salad sandwich before answering her husband's question. Uh huh...I was thinking she could stay in that little office room, since we so rarely use....Hunny!! Kala had just looked over at her husband, as he took another swig of his cream soda, and saw the gash on the underside of his arm. She moved closer to him as Jessy stood up. Jessy, get some towels, please...we need to put some pressure on this. Gah...what are we going to do... At that point, Kala phyiscally jumped when she heard the bell down below, letting out a small squeal before she could stop herself. Heart beating a mile a minute, she was glad when Jessy stepped back into the room with a couple towels. Standing up a little too quickly, sending her chair the floor behind her, she took the towels away. Can you go see who's downstairs? Gah, one thing after another today....where'd I put the towels? Kala actually started looking around the table not realizing in her panicing state of mind, they were still in her hands. ****************** ((Sorry to take over your chara, Seren, but this is an emergency xd )) Jessy quickly handed the towels over, noticing the panicky tone in Kala's voice. Briefly she wondered what was happening, but a voice from below stopped her from asking any questions, and instead went downstairs as she'd been asked. At the foot of the steps, she stopped in surprise to realize it was Ken at the counter. Hey! I thought you had to work after class...surprised to see you here!
