[color=yellow] “For fuck’s… I’ll take that.”[/color] The guard snapped as he snatched the evidence away from Max. [color=yellow] “As for the picture, keep it open and on hand if you don’t want your device immediately confiscated. In the meantime, don’t move.”[/color] The guard quickly set about clearing the lingering group away and the ballroom was emptying quickly as the staff diverted the students back towards the central campus. The sirens reached their crescendo as three campus police vehicles whipped around the corner, followed closely by an ambulance. A few mages seemed to pull themselves out of the shadows of the wall and vampire guards showed up on foot terrifyingly quickly. One bat fluttered around the scene. Most of the people here were in plains clothes and more than one mage was sent away when it was apparent they were intoxicated. The area was quickly tapped off. The bat circling the scene plummeted in front of the boys and nearly hit the pavement, shifting back into her bipedal form in the blink of an eye. She was short and squat, a terse looking woman dressed in a shirt, shorts, and some mismatched sneakers. The guard caught the woman up to speed on what the trio had already discussed but she dismissed him with a wave of her hand. [color=FF1BAC] “Imbecile.”[/color] The woman grumbled, her voice raspy, but that was all the effort she put into the man she shooed away. She turned her eyes on the three. Gears were whirring in her head as she took them in, head tilting from side to side. [color=FF1BAC] “Detective Abigail Foster. I’d say a pleasure to meet you but its not. Assuming that cop out of a guard had anything right, you stumbled across a body, took a picture of some sort of rune, tampered with evidence, and then got help. Sound about right? I’m thinkin’ it does. Normally, we could just take a statement,check out some security footage, and send you off because frankly I don’t think any of you have the balls to pull a stunt like this but since you have technically messed with our crime scene and we don’t have a camera back here, even I can’t hand wave your stupidity away. Gotta take you in, question you some more, and then let the Princess decide how she wants to handle the lot of you. Questions can wait til we’re in the car.”[/color] She lead them over to one of the campus vehicles, a brief back and forth between its original driver and her resulting in the keys in her hand and a slinking off vampire, and practically stuffed them in the back seat of the car. Once the car started up and she pulled away from the curb did she speak again. [color=FF1BAC] “You’ve got about ten minutes until we reach the holding area. Speak now or forever keep your peace.”[/color] [hr] [sub][right]Interacting with [@WeepingLiberty] [/right][/sub] [color=D42CF9]“Well, I’ve never really been to a dance like this so honestly, it kind of was? Never had the chance the other Revels or more like I never really gave myself the chan-”[/color] The music went silent and in the middle of the ballroom was calmly explaining that accidental damage done to the smoke detectors required the event be ended early and that all attendees are required to vacate the premise but can continue to enjoy the other events of the Revel. [color=D42CF9]“Oh, that’s too bad. I wonder if…”[/color] Dennis trailed off, his attention seemingly elsewhere as he stood and offered his hand to help Amaris out of her chair. [color=D42CF9] “Hm, something seems to be going on outside the ballroom? There are sirens blaring? And…”[/color] Dennis gasped. [color=D42CF9] “Eris Samuel, his mage, and the Astorio mage are all being escorted away! I wonder if they caused the damage?”[/color] [hr] [color=bc8dbf] “Thank you, Benjamin.”[/color] Ryner accepted the cloth gratefully, dabbing away the blood from her eyes. [color=bc8dbf] “But I think it’s about time I leave you to acclimate to your new home. It’s been a pleasure getting to know you. If you ever need help or have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me. Even if it’s just a friendly ear, I’ll do my best to help.”[/color] Ryner said her goodbyes as she made her way back outside.
