The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

Los Paraisos : the Grande Diamond, 9th floor

Looks like he didn’t buy into her little lie. Then again, she hadn’t expected him to, what with her being suspiciously dressed and having been even more suspiciously cloaked in an illusion. She gave a small sigh. It was worth a try, right?

Aria watched as Kenneth moved over to the balcony, slightly confused as to why he was being so relaxed despite the fact that she could potentially attack him while his back was turned. Had he not realized she was part of the infiltrators? No, she was sure he knew.

” Anyway, sorry darling, but you can’t go up. Too dangerous, you know? Don’t worry about your friends, none. We’ve got some of our guards to help escort the lovely ladies down and out of the building already. Really isn’t safe for you to be here no more. C’mon… let’s get you out of here.[i]”

My, wasn’t he smooth? She couldn’t help but give a soft laugh, stance shifting to mirror his more relaxed pose but ready to move in case he decided the time to talk was over. A hand shifted over to where her fans were tucked securely, bring one up to tap against her cheek.

“I’m flattered, really,” She gave an alluring smile of her own in response. “ unfortunately I can’t leave just yet. I’m not calling you a liar,” she gave a shrug. “but I don’t quite think you’re being truthful about the whereabouts of the two ladies Lady Vasco whisked away earlier, and I’m certainly not going anywhere until I find [i]all of my friends.”

Her eyes hardened, sultry smile now a tense smirk. She wasn’t sure how willing she was to fight this man who had managed to break through her illusions so easily, not to mention she was more used to fighting in a pair with Xan than by herself, but then again she might not get that much of a choice.

“What if I just take a quick peek into the room just to make sure they aren’t there? That should be fine, right?"

Marcus and Selan had better be trying to get information on Estelle and Josette out of the big boss up there.

Los Paraisos : the Grande Diamond, 9th floor

Despite the lack of people on the upper floors, it seemed like deciding to keep up her illusion up to hide herself was the right choice. As a door slammed above, followed closely by footsteps quickly descended the stairway leading up to the top floor Aria ducked behind a nearby pillar, peeking out cautiously from behind her hiding spot. Although she was currently good as invisible, it never hurt to be cautious.

Finally getting a good glimpse of the man, Aria blinked in recognition at the suited figure of the rather serious faced blond. So Rugged Handsome Gambler Man really was working here, just like Mordie said. Did he work in security too? She couldn’t really see him all made up and in a dress serving noblemen, so he probably did. Then again she had thought the same of Chirps… She twitched before shaking her head in an attempt to drive out any lingering thoughts of cross-dressing men. Focus, girl, focus!

She held her breath as he passed by her, releasing it only when he continued down to the lower level and out of sight. The sounds of battle were still increasing, shouting and crashing getting ever closer as the guilders battled their way up top. She gave a small but determined smile. With Kenneth gone it meant that that there was less firepower upstairs, and it would make things quite a bit easier for her to go in, distract the rest of the room with some illusions and nab Marcus and Selan out of there so they could focus on rescuing the missing girls.

Yes, that was the best plan she could think of at the time. She slid out from behind the pillar and moved towards the stairs. What kind of distraction should she-

“Now, now, sweetheart. Where do you think you’re going?”

She froze, heart leaping into her throat as she whipped back with wide eyes to face the blond suited man. When had he...? She could have sworn he had left for the lower levels. She hadn't heard any footsteps approaching from behind at all, not to mention- how had he seen through her illusion?

Despite her panic, she managed a sheepish albeit shaky smile, body tensing in preparation of whatever might happen next.

"Would you believe me if I said I was merely looking for Marcy and Selan so we could evacuate the premises like we're supposed to be doing?"

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

It has been, hasn't it? Good to have you here, hehe ^u^

Been doing well, I hope :D

The Midnight Train to Nowhere

Los Paraisos : the Grande Diamond

The higher she climbed the less people there were, the patrons and employees having fled while security rushed down the stairs to join in the brawl happening on the first floor. By the time she had reached the seventh floor the halls were all but deserted. A bit too deserted. Where were Dylan and Lucien? They couldn’t still be touring the dungeons.

Still, just to be sure she slowly opened the nearest door, only to be bombarded by loud angry shouting from a red-faced moustache lord who had apparently been handcuffed to one of the many strange looking contraptions that filled the room. No sign of the guilders though, and Aria merely closed the heavy doors behind her ignoring the shouts of the man behind her. Somebody would get him out when this was all over- in fact, it was probably safer in there right now compared to anywhere else. She paused at what she hoped was a blind spot for the cameras (These cameras were really getting annoying. It was probably only by pure luck that she had gotten this far without anybody noticing.) to think over her next plan of action.

What now? She had been planning to have Dylan and Lucien go with her to rescue Marcus and Selan on the top floor. It would certainly not be wise to go alone, but the thought of leaving Marcus and Selan in the hands of their enemies brought a bad taste to her mouth. Not to mention it couldn’t be long until the establishment realized they could use the two as hostages to make them retreat or even surrender.

Loud crashes sounded from below and she turned in time to see security guards thrown from the second floor banisters to the first floor, crushing a small pavilion like structure beneath them. She couldn’t help but give a dry laugh as she turned to continue up the staircase.

“It’s raining men, hallelujah…”

I might have to skip posting today because my physics test got pushed back to tomorrow and I still understand very little ; v ;

(Also because I ended falling asleep for a good couple of hours so now I have even less time to study screams)
