[h3][center]~Chloe & Isana~[/center][/h3]

[color=f26522]"Ugh, why. Why does it have to be at midnight."[/color] A girl with long white hair, dressed in what was clearly some sort of military uniform groaned. She was standing a bit towards the back of the group for the most part, though she was a bit towards some of the beacon girls. From her facial expression she was equal parts annoyed and upset. [color=f26522]"I had a clan raid! A CLAN RAID. It's like, a once a year thing, too! Toughest boss in the game! I'm gonna miss all the epic loot and jolly co-operation and-"[/color] The girl placed her hands on the top of her head, trying and failing to contain her annoyance. [color=f26522]"Aaargh! I don't care about these stupid alliances and stuff! Just give me something to fight and I'll do it!"[/color]

The fact she practically shouted that was probably not going to earn her any favors with the other girls, though she wasn't one to particularly are. Next to her, a black haired girl was dressed entirely in purple...if one could even call it dressed. Most of her body was quite on display for the world, though she didn't seem to care about this fact. With a small huff, the girl reached over and grabbed the other by the ear, pulling it and earning a small yelp from the other.

[color=violet]"Quiet, you,"[/color] She snapped, turning the others head towards her own. Isana had been complaining about this the entire time they had been heading over here. For the love of all that was unholy in the world, the girl took an hour to get ready even when she could just magic clothes into existence! Honestly, Chloe had about enough of her shenanigans for the evening. Not to mention her current lack of employment for over a month. [color=violet]"Lord Iesud wanted me to attend, and [i]you[/i] haven't had any work in the past what...two months? I lost count after the first one. Either way, this will be a good idea for you to do something other than sit on your lazy butt all day."[/color]

[color=f26522]"B-but epic loot..."[/color] Isana pouted, poking out her lower lip and giving Chloe her best hurt look she could muster.

[color=violet]"Oh quit pouting and actually do that fancy uniform of yours justice, or must I start with the stupid compliments you like so much?"[/color]

[color=f26522]"I mean, if you want to tell me I look amazing in uniform, I'm not going to object."[/color] Chloe simply stared blankly at her companion. She was holding back the urge to simply slap Isana. Sometimes, the girl was completely insufferable. Not that she had much room to talk in that department.

[color=violet]"Sometimes I wonder what that Puchuu saw in you, I really do."[/color]

[color=f26522]"Uhm, my incredible amounts of awesomeness and badassery?"[/color]

[color=violet]"If by that, you mean your ability to sleep 18 hours a day and then proceed to do nothing but laze about..."[/color]

[color=f26522]"Hey, being fabulous and extremely good looking is tiring. Not that'd you'd know about either of those things, heh."[/color] Chloe's eyebrow visibly twitched at that comment. Her mouth curled into a smirk, her grip on Isana's ear tightening a bit. Almost too fast for the eye to follow, a small crystal looking orb that had been floating a foot or so above Chloe moved over Isana's head. In the next instant, a bright beam of Etheric energy fell on Isana from the orb, completely flattening the other girl onto the ground. It wouldn't have hurt the other girl, she was too tough for that but she'd at least feel a little dizzy from the sudden impact.

[color=f26522]"Still fabulous."[/color] Isana said, holding a hand up from where she laid face first on the ground. Sometimes, that quirk of Isana's to never have her clothing or looks torn irritated Chloe to no end. Still, she was pretty sure she had won this little debacle.

[color=violet]"Learn to actually back up your 'badassery' with skills next time."[/color] Chloe said, brushing a loose strand of hair out of her face. Now that her 'friend' had been dealt with she could move onto more important matters. [color=violet]"Now, would you kindly do what I keep you around for instead of lacking all intelligence?"[/color] With a simple thumbs up, Isana lowered her hand to the ground. A second later a pillar of earth carried Chloe to about the same level as Victoria. The small orb floating around her shimmered slightly, then fell into her hands.

Now, what to do here? Lord Iesud needed allies. Followers. People that wouldn't mind burning this world and starting a new one. This little truce would certainly make it easy to get to know a few of the other girls and possibly convince them...she wasn't exactly one for acting, so she might as well simply be her usual self. Her usual self was the best self, after all. Couldn't get any better than she was.

[color=violet]"I'd apologize for my friend there, but she's likely to cause another incident before the night is over."[/color] Chloe sighed, obviously annoyed just as Alicia finished. [color=violet]"But that is not really a discussion for everyone here...I for one, wouldn't mind a sort of...truce."[/color] Chloe said towards Victoria. A truce had many advantages, especially for one such as them. They could accomplish their tasks so much easier than if they had the constant threat of being interrupted by some foolish girl from the beacon. [color=violet]"As long as those self-righteous Beacon fools agree to keep their petty morals to themselves, then I see no problem with a sort of alliance."[/color]

Isana pulled herself up off of the ground, brushing a few rocks off of her and leaning against the pillar of earth that Chloe was standing on. Honestly, she had no interest in an alliance. An alliance meant less fighting - which meant less fun and less work for her in the long run, unless she wanted to go running t the Mint for work, or find a patron. Iesud had offered on multiple occasions to take her 'under his wing' as he put it. Maybe Iesud would be alright, but the Mint? No. Way. In hell. They had bad written all over them. As much as she didn't want to give up that coin, she didn't want anything else to do with them.
