Shiro is on rather friendly terms with Gren and Abel, they may not appreciate such a leader that enjoys cutting down the tiger boy.

But you know all this already. XD

No no no I enjoy cutting him down. Sapphire just wants him to stop being such an idiot.

I prefer yelling at him and threatening his life. It's really cathartic.

Heroes of Beacon - the Next Chapter

Sapphire Rode - The Shelter

Sapphire wanted to do something to help the animals she really did but at this point she didn't see the wisdom in letting them out. At least half of them were so heavily sedated that even if their cages were opened they'd more than likely continue to lie there. This reasoning was not shared by Abel however who after wiping a large amount of dog slobber from his face used the pointed end of his spear to shear the tops off most of the cages. With the ferocity of the swings Sapphire was shocked that he'd managed to avoid hitting any of the animals imprisoned here.

It was needlessly excessive but Sapphire understood why Abel wanted these creatures free. Each one of them was wild and used to open spaces and freedom. Otherwise sedation wouldn't have been necessary, domestic pets while perhaps not happy about being kept in a cage wouldn't cause enough of a fuss to warrant sedatives. Besides should they run into something more than they could handle the animals could serve as a distraction what with the chaos the wakeful ones were making.

Sapphire smiled slightly and unlocked a few of the cages allowing the animals that wanted to to run free. When Abel was finished his liberation mission he followed Sapphire's suggestion that they take a look at the lower levels. As they pushed through the doors to the stairwell a cold chill ran up Sapphire's spine. It wasn't anything specific just a very bad feeling that they were descending into something that did not welcome them. It was of course ridiculous, this was a Shelter for animals, whatever was in this place couldn't be more than they could handle and yet despite the fact that it was illogical Sapphire switched her semblance on just before they started down the stairs.

It was a good thing too as the area was littered with security cameras. As long as she didn't alter the environment in any significant way even electronic surveillance would be unable to detect her. Sapphire's footfall was near silent, in fact unless someone was listening for her specifically they'd more than likely miss it altogether and that was without her semblance active.

They encountered no resistance on the stairs or in the room below. This unsettled Sapphire far more than if the med lab had been full of Atlas Paladin Suits. The emptiness of the facility was far more threatening than any physical form could ever be.

Sapphire was about to do a thorough search of the room when they heard sounds. Sapphire didn't shrink away from the room. With her semblance active there was no reason to avoid detection as long as she remained inconspicuous. Abel on the other hand was another story. He slipped past her into the shadows whispering that she should turn invisible and follow the two people that had entered the room.

Sapphire smiled slightly, she'd never fully explained her semblance to her team. It seemed all of them were under the impression that her semblance was invisibility. Abel had advised her to use it without realizing that it was already on. He could only see her because he'd been there when she'd activated it and he was expecting her presence.

Sapphire walked out into the room staying a good distance behind the man and woman that had marched into the room but within earshot so that nothing of there conversation would be missed. From the little that Sapphire had gleaned so far they were planning something. Making History was very rarely a good thing. The Faunus wars had made history, the great criminals had made history, and the Grimm had made history. Whatever this woman was referring to Sapphire couldn't help but feel that it was not as good a thing as those two seemed to think.

I know how you feel, my last post felt kinda weak.

Sapphire Rode - The Shelter

Abel was still angry. Sapphire could tell but he was choosing to keep quite about it. The mission was more important after all. Sapphire discovered that she was unable to apologize for her behavior to Abel. There wasn't a way in which she could both say she was sorry for the manner in which she acted without taking back the things she'd said to Shiro. Gren was rational, while he may not like how Sapphire had reacted he could recognize that the faunus needed more self control. Abel on the other was much more emotionally driven. There wasn't anything she could say to him that would make this right without acknowledging that her words to Shiro had been false. Despite how important Sapphire considered the team's unity such a lie wasn't quite within her grasp.

As they entered the building Sapphire got a good look at the layout. The place was filled with cages housing all sorts of animals. Sapphire looked around at each one. This was cruel, some of them were kept in enclosures no bigger than a bedroom closet and others only marginally bigger. Didn't they have facilities to let these animals out in. Sapphire had had a dog in her youth. Several acres of land hadn't been enough space for him. He'd run and jump and bark till someone came to drag him back to the house. He never wanted to be cooped up and Sapphire couldn't imagine that any of these animals were thrilled with the arrangements either.

That was when she realized something. Almost all the animals were sleeping. The ones that were awake for the most part were lying down and all of them looked tired as if they'd run a long distance. Had they been sedated. Sapphire looked the area in disgust. This wasn't right, even if the animals had high aura levels, no matter what they could learn here these facilities were not set up to help the animals the way they should be helped.

The long tongued dog rather surprised Sapphire but no trace of that could be seen on her face. A nasty thought had just occurred to her about this place but she had no supporting evidence so for now it was merely a terrible idea.

Around this time Sapphire's scroll beeped signalling she'd received a text message. Hoping it was a status report from Gren Sapphire was only slightly disappointed to discover it came from Shiro instead. The gist of it was rather disturbing. The presence of Faunus on the island was rather unsettling as was large lizard creatures with an unnerving ability to control a semblance.

Having to fight animals was something that worried Sapphire. In general animals were unpredictable and because their brains didn't function the same way as a humans her semblance served only to agitate and confuse them.

"Come on Abel, we should go see what's beyond those doors. This place is disturbingly empty. I'll feel better when we find someone who can shed some light on what's going on here."

Praise the lord, Kaben has seen the light.
