Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

Ruby appears.
"Cute definition. Try demigod."
"You are neither a demigod or supposed to be here." Iruk grumbles.
"His point is that I found dozens of killswitches in his AI. Be wary while modding him." Ruby says, winking before disappearing.

 

The earth guardian blinks twice, taking off her glasses and rubbing them before putting them back on.

"'ho the heck was that?" The fire guardian asks.

A pair of guards suddenly burst into the room, swords ready.

"Everything alright in here?" One asks, "There was an intruder, and they're believed to have been here."

 

Iruk sighs.
"Everything's fine. They left. Just Ruby."

 

The guards don't seem satisfied, but leave anyway.

"Well, no point delaying! Let's get to work!" The earth guardian says, heading back to her desk.

 

Iruk waits for orders.


The water guardian sees a cloaked draconian walk by with an odd staff, who bumps into them accidentally.
"Ah, I'm sorry, miss."

 

"Oh, s-sorry." The water guardian says. After the draconian walks away, she checks herself over to make sure nothing was stolen.

 

Nothing was stolen. However, she can see the draconian enter City Hall.

 

The water guardian contemplates for a second, before walking toward city hall.

 

Sarin is sitting outside, eating a cookie of sorts.

 

The water guardian takes the next turn away from city hall, trying not to be seen.

 

She bumps into a merchant.
"Nnguh? What the hell?!" They growl.

 

"Aah! Sorry!" The water guardian says, her voice trembling as she stumbles backwards fearfully. Her eyes widen with fear, and an icy shield appears in her hand.

 

The merchant seems to be sleepwalking. Something invisible picks up dropped goods before the odd draconian walks off, claws clenched.

 

The water guardian runs like her life depends on it to city hall, scared.

 

Sarin's just entering, the door slowly closing behind her.

 

The water guardian throws her shield down and surfs on it, before making a leap for the door.

 

She takes out Sarin on the way in, an odd time flux cushioning her fall.

A draconian carrying the staff the guardian recognizes from earier peeks at the small dogpile from a corner room.
"The hell do we have here?"

 

"Sorry! I'm really sorry! Oh god, this is all my fault, sorry." The water guardian says hastily, looking like she's on the verge of tears. She tries her best to get up, and help up Sarin after.

 

"It's fine. Most people who don't know us are always in a hurry." Sarin says, smiling as she accepts the guardian's help up.
"You know this guardian?"
"Sort of. They were looking for you earlier."
"Oh? What do you need, then?" Lidnis asks, stepping out into the main lobby.

 

"U-U-U-Uhm, I-I was s-supposed to p-p-pick up s-some m-materials for I-Iruk." The water guardian stutters, her eyes shining with tears.
