Part 3: The City of Crime

[Halbarad]

"What in blazes is that racket, anyway?" Clyde grumbled, stretching as he sat up on the edge of his bed.

[Shukuen]

Leets smiled wryly towards Clyde. "It's music. 100-years after your time."

[Dexie Oblivion]

"Money?" He lets his hand slide to his sword hilt, a grin forming on his face. "I  believe I will not be needing any money, wouldn't you agree?"

[Halbarad]

"So technology advances at the cost of good taste?" The professor stood and stretched. "I'm not sure if that's a fair trade or not."

He headed over to see Jan. "Thanks for all the help with the wolves. Somehow I doubt any of us would have made it out of there without you."

[Dracos]

"Woah, woah, gonna be pullin' dat kind of stunt, you gonna be getting killed real soon.  And not going to be threaten' Greg." He backed off.

"Don't worry about it. And you three need to check in with 'Honest' Sal to get us passports into Vault City. He's down by the docks, but be careful not to run into the Crimson Tears down there. They usually like wearing red bandanas and all of 'em have small tatoos below their eyes like a tear."

[Dexie Oblivion]

Darx thinks for a moment, grinning all the while.  Hmph, pathetic lowlifes. A little show of force and their cowardice shows itself.

He draws his sword fully and idly twirls it by his side, taking a step towards the hipster.

"So.....Greg, is it? I think you'll be showing me around town, don't you? It would be in the best interest of both of us." He grins wider, his wings slowly flapping themselves.

[Dracos]

"Dude, you're wacked."  He pulled out a gun, pointing it at him.  "Back off before I cap you one."

Dracos

[Shukuen]

"All right. You rest for now, Smith. I'll go get us those passports."

Leets paused by the door, glancing at the others. "Anyone want to join me or would you rather take care of our guide?"

[Olvelsper]

"Sorry about all this. Just didn't expect ravenous monsters on the way." Jan raised a hand in apology to the rest of the group. "I have to show you all something when you come back too."

[Dexie Oblivion]

A loud laugh erupts from Darx.

"You dare threaten me? And with such a pathetic weapon?"

He takes a step back, extending his wings to their full twelve foot span staring wickedly at Greg.

"Go ahead and fire, if you think you've got it in you.."

He raises his sword and takes two more steps back.

"But if you miss...you will regret it....keheheh..."

[Dracos]

"What the hell, craze newcomer." He blasted two shots and ran.

Darx got the interesting sensation that occurs when two bullets enter his left wing, passing through in a decisively painful manner.

[RyderHakubi]

Replying softly from the corner, Ryder mentioned, "Yeah... I'll go with you.  I need the air anyway."

Ryder stood up, and cracked his neck... and it was loud.  Like, loud enough for everyone to hear it.

[Shukuen]

Leets blanched at the noise. "You sure? You don't sound like you're up for it."

[RyderHakubi]

Embarassedly looking around at the room, Ryder mentioned, "It was the first time I've gotten a chance to do that since I got here."

Stretching out a bit, Ryder waited for Leets.
