The last step that Indigo made was right on beat with the siren beginning to sound. It caused them to nearly jump out of their skin, lurching back and grabbing for the hilt of a throwing blade that was hidden in their waistband. [color=bd33a4]Well, if they didn't know I was here before....[/color] There was a muffled [i][color=gray]K A N G[/color][/i] against the door, followed by dampened cursing and a loud [i][h3][color=orange]KSSSHHHHH[/color][/h3][/i] that accompanied the image of a stranger bursting through a stained glass window and hitting the ground. Indigo's breath caught. They stared at Vincent with a mixture of realization and bewilderment. As the stranger stood up, glass shards embedded in his arms, the other revenant's eyes widened, purple electricity crackling in their pale irises. [i][color=bd33a4]Maybe it's just...adrenaline...[/color][/i] Their expression quickly turned guarded. They had to be careful, they weren't sure who these people were, let alone if they welcomed people like Indigo around them. Their nose scrunched in response to the bath statement, and their mouth opened to speak when the door swung open, exposing a small, strange looking girl to Indigo's view. She looked disappointed, like she was expecting someone else to be at the entrance. A taller man accompanied her before the door was shut quickly, practically in Indigo's face. They frowned, counting the number of individuals that had exposed their appearances. The glass man. An odd girl. A dark haired and light haired man. Another....Indigo's brain stopped in its tracks when their eyes spotted Poppy. The wings that buzzed behind her confirmed what Indigo had been wondering before. They weren't the only one that was strange. It brought them some form of relief, but also more anxiety and confusion. [color=bd33a4][i]She's different, though, not like what I've become...[/i][/color] And then a [i]drone[/i]. Indigo took a few feverish steps back, bringing up their hands as a sign that they meant to harm. Something in their head told them that technology like this could be extremely dangerous, and at this point, they hadn't penciled 'Get blown to smithereens by a drone' into their agenda, so they were careful to do as it asked. [color=bd33a4]"U-um..."[/color] their voice was low, sounding somewhat masculine with a slight rasp to its timber. [color=bd33a4]"Indigo. Call me Indigo."[/color] They shifted uncomfortably from side to side, slowly lowering their hands to clasp together in front of them [color=bd33a4]"I...I don't have an answer for that second question. The only reason I'm here is because I've been following [i]that[/i]--"[/color] they gestured behind them, [color=bd33a4]"river for a while, and it led me here. I saw the lights coming from the windows and...I haven't seen electricity since...."[/color] Indigo hesitated, then finished, [color=bd33a4]"since I woke up. Listen, I don't mean any harm, I don't want any trouble, I'm just trying to figure out what the hell is going on here, and you lot are the first upright and alive bodies I've seen that aren't those monsters."[/color] Continuing to wring their hands together, Indigo avoided each set of eyes, deliberately looking down at the ground. They weren't sure if they were making the right decision. [color=bd33a4][i]Maybe they know what's going on...maybe they can help me.[/i][/color] Slouching slightly, Indigo let the thoughts race through their head, catching them every so often and then releasing them like thrashing fish back into the raging rapids of his mind. But what other choice did they have? They wanted desperately to find sanctuary from the hell they had woken up into, and this was the first time they'd seen anything close to it. A reinforced building with [i]alive[/i] people inside. [color=bd33a4]"I'm just trying to find answers, and then I can get out of your hair, and you can forget this ever happened. I...I just want to try and make sense of all of this."[/color] Indigo grimaced, still staring down at the ground and fidgeting with their fingers. Either they made the right move, or they'd have to take off running shortly. Only time would tell at this point.
