@oOWonderKinOo He's already on his way home though and would have already passed the alleyway she's in.

As Raven opened his mouth the answer the question on whether they had take-out or not, some customers came in the girl had to dart out of the way. She bumped into someone and lost her balance. Raven instinctively lunged for her and caught her elbow. Suddenly, he felt wind tearing at his hair and his eyes widened when he realized that he could see the street far below him. What…Where…Where was he?! He blinked and he could feel the solid ground beneath his feet, someone clenching onto him tightly but then in the next instant he was in the air again. His stomach churned as he realized how far he was up and his breathing began to speed up in panic. Heights. Why the hell did it have to be heights?! Wait..if he was this high, what was holding him up? As if the thought broke a spell that was suspending him in the air, he began to fall. The wind tore at his hands and clothing as his stomach dropped as if he was on a roller-coaster. A scream lodged in his throat, a choked sound being the only thing that escaped. He closed his eyes and he could see the restaurant again but it was like he was seeing it from afar. He was clenching onto to something tightly as if to anchor himself. Raven? Raven are you ok? What’s wrong? He could hear voices faintly over the wind screaming in his ear. The noise bumped around in his head and made him feel dizzy. His vision blurred and he was seeing the ground coming closer and closer. The scream that was lodged in his throat did escape then and it echoed inside his head, the sound being thrown away by the fierce wind. Suddenly, he heard a voice cry out clearly as well as a large gust of wind hit him. Whatever he had been clutching to disappeared and he would have fallen forward if not for the strong arms that wrapped around him and supported him upright. He was seeing double now, the blurry restaurant and the street he was about the crash into. Right before impact everything went dark and his body jolted. When his eyes fluttered open, the world was spinning. Jack was staring down at him in concern as noise echoed around him. Something about an ambulance…Raven felt dizzy and his breathing was coming out in terrified pants. Jack was saying something but his ears were ringing and he couldn’t make out what it was. Finally, after a few minutes of taking deep breaths the dizziness faded and he was able to sit up from here Jack had laid him out on the ground. His uncle protested but Raven tried to tell him he was fine. ”Fine? Fine?! You looked like you were having a panic attack. That is not fine!” Raven was a lot of words, not really sure what had happened himself. There was a loud noise outside that resembled the screech of sirens and the doors burst open as two EMP’s came in and knelt next to Raven. After checking him over and after answering countless questions, the medics declared that there was nothing wrong with the boy. His uncle wasn’t convinced and after the medics left, he lead Raven to his office. ”What happened out there? One minute you were fine and the next you were acting like you were about to faint. Are you okay and don’t try and tell me it was nothing.” Jack said, arms crossed over his chest as he stared at his nephew. Raven stared down at his hands. ”I don’t know what happened. I guess maybe it was the lack of sleep finally catching up with me.” He finally said. Jack sighed, knowing he wasn’t going to get anything more out of his nephew. He then told the boy to go home and get some rest and that he didn’t need to come in tomorrow. Raven tried to protest but anything he said fell on deaf ears and so Raven stowed his apron away and grabbed his jacket before he was on his way home.

Trip City

@The ghost in black Lunch hour was usually chaotic but Autumn didn’t think she had ever seen it this crazy. Did the whole city deicide to come to The Silver Dragon for lunch? It sure looked that way. ”Here you are sir.” Autumn said as she set a hamburger and a glass of coke in front of a man dressed in a suit with a Bluetooth piece in his ear. The man took one look at the food in front of him then glared at Autumn. ”What kind of fool do you take me for? I didn’t order this garbage! I asked for a water and a salad, are you trying to make me fat?!” Autumn blinked in surprise because she distinctly remembered this man ordering no such thing. Autumn then apologized and said she would take it back. Clearly it was not what the man wanted and so he then began to rant at her. The girl’s facial expression fell into a neutral visage, turning into an emotionless mask as the man continued to explain in great detail how Autumn was such a stupid and incompetent child. The man didn’t seem to like the fact that he wasn’t getting a raise out of her and so he stood, face very red. He then snatched up his glass of coke and upended it over Autumn’s head. Her mask slipped, revealing a stunned expression as the man shoved past her and stalked towards the door. Autumn stood there, soda plastering her hair to her head and dripping down her face. She slowly turned, aquamarine eyes tracking the man as he headed for the door. Rage, swift and hot, surged through her body and his fists clenched. She then jumped slightly upon feeling a hand on her shoulder. She glanced up into Sarah’s sympathetic eyes. ”You okay? That was rough. I have a spare uniform in my locker if you want to borrow it. You can just give it back to me tomorrow.” Autumn nodded in agreement and followed along as Sarah led her to the back. Sarah lent her a pack of wipes and so with that and the uniform in hand Autumn locked herself in the bathroom to get cleaned up. Thankfully the coke missed her pants but her shirt was absolutely sopped. She threw it off and it hit the linoleum with a wet slap. She turned on the facet and ducked her head under it, running her fingers through it. She pumped some hand soap into her hand and lathered it through her hair. She knew it wouldn’t work as well as shampoo but hopefully it would help rid her hair of the stickiness the soda caused. After rinsing her hair out thoroughly, she then got down to business of ridding her skin of the rest of the soda. After going through most of the wipes she finally was soda free. She shrugged on Sarah’s uniform shirt and fingered the ends of her hair. Drying it was out of the option unless she felt like trying to use paper towels. Deciding it could just air dry she squeezed as much water out of it that she could then shoved her soda soaked shirt into a plastic bag that was used for food deliveries, Autumn exited the bathroom and stowed the bag in her locker to take home later. She took a deep breath and entered the main room again. She shot Sarah a grateful smile, turning to survey the room. She heard a voice speak up from next to her and she turned to face Eris. She gave her a smile. ”Jack? He should be in his office doing paperwork.”

The Gemstone Masquerade

Estelle hummed quietly to herself as she raised the viewfinder to her eye, focusing on the sun as it began to rise above the ocean. A quick snap followed and she clicked a button and the picture popped up on the screen. She gazed down at it, bright blue eyes scanning over it. "Too bright." She mumbled and fiddled with the settings on her camera before she snapped another picture. This one was much better. A smile came over her face as she took a few pictures of the ocean as it crashed against the shore. When Sebastian had said he was buying an apartment close to the water she had been happy since that meant a beautiful landscape that she could photograph. She glanced down at her watch and saw that Alastair would be waking up soon. As if he was conjured up by her thoughts, her brother settled down next to her on the edge of the roof. She glanced up at him, watching as he fixed his glasses before taking a peek at Estelle's camera. "Nice. Sebastian says it's your turn to make breakfast since he has to head to the shop early." Alastair said quietly, a warm breeze ruffling his hair slightly. Estelle nodded and stood up, brushing off the back of her shorts. Ever since Alastair had nearly burnt the kitchen down he was officially banned from the kitchen and either Estelle or their twenty-five year-old brother cooked. However, Sebastian worked three jobs in order to make ends meet and so he didn't have time to cook most of the mornings. Estelle and Alastair had offered to get jobs as well and so Estelle worked part-time for a cafe and Alastair worked as a waiter at a restaurant right next door. The siblings headed inside just as Sebastian was headed out the door. He gave them a quick farewell before he was gone. Since their shifts didn't start until later that morning, they had a bit of time to get ready. Estelle headed into the kitchen while Alastair wandered around the apartment and tidied things up that were out of place.
