Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

The keypad buzzes, and there's a slight rumble, though nothing seems to have changed. It seems that was the incorrect code.

 

"Shit, there are four..."

I follow the mayor, inspecting my surroundings.

 

His office is pretty plain; nothing more than filing cabinets, binders, and stacks of paper and pen.
"So, questions?"

 

Another buzz, and another rumble. Incorrect again.

Sapphire preps an escape, pretty pissed.

 

The keypad chimes, and the back of Abigail's closet opens up into a separate closet, made of metal. Abigail's armour rests on an armour rack, and there seems to be a pair of buttons to change racks, left and right.

 

Sapphire hits the buttons to change racks, hoping to find her mask.

 

Her mask is on the rack to the right, resting undamaged and untouched.

 

Sapphire takes it back, putting it on before rotating the rack back to Abigail's armor and looking for a way to close the safe again, fully cloaking.

 

There's a slight reaction as Sapphire takes her mask, and shortly afterwards a large rumble.

There seems to be an 'X' button to close the safe under the rotation buttons.

 

Sapphire steps out, hits the button, then dashes to the kitchen real quick, concerned.

 

Outside the kitchen window, all she can see is magma. The fairy from before seems to be looking out at the magma from the window, smiling.

 

Sapphire sighs.
"Guess I'm stuck here." She says, uncloaking. "Fucking hell... Feels good to have my mask again."

She turns to the fairy.
"Welp... how's your day going?"

 

The fairy turns to Sapphire, before her eyes widen in fear. She quickly hides behind a plant pot of aloe vera, scared.

 

"Hey, don't worry. No more nets." She says.

 

The fairy tentatively peeks out from behind the aloe vera, cautious.

 

Sapphire doesn't seem hostile, just stressed, behind her mask.
"The homeowner never gave me back my mask. I just came to pick it up." She sighs.

 

"D-Did she say you could take it?" The faerie asks.

 

"She said I could have it back two weeks ago. I can't fight or anything without it, so I had to hide for two weeks waiting for her before I got fed up with waiting."
Pause.
"She disappeared the day she was going to return it. Hasn't shown up since."
