 I run but never walk. I have hands but no arms to see. Felix walked upstairs with the beads and placed them into an empty spot in a glass case. "Well this was actually quite a productive day. Found a home for grandmother's music box, that she used to help both my mother and me sleep when we were young, a flame sorcerer's ring, and a bracelet of a religious zealot. Granted I did gain prayer beads with split personalities but eh cant have it all can you," He said heading back down stairs.
And a face but do not talk. No eyes, though my name might disagree.

 Natalia Lucile Menard Princess? Ha ha ha. that's ridiculous. There are no princesses here, and i'll kick your ******** a** if you suggest otherwise.
Natalia walked into the room, looking at all of the odds and ends. This store had a very famous reputation, and while she was here she might as well check it out. Besides, her father's equivalent of a secret service was out and around, and she didn't much want them seeing her. She looked at a few of the objects before coming to the desk clerk. "Good evening." She said, evenly. "This shop has quite the reputation abroad. You must be proud."
Oh, you're a smart one, aren't you. ... are you quite done talking?

I run but never walk. I have hands but no arms to see. Felix looked up at the woman in here now. Three customers in one day? What are the odds. He was about to close up but he cant do that with her in here now. "Well I simply do my job and its my grandmother who forged its reputation not me. Is there anything i can help you with?" He asked her politely.

"Well, I did intrude on your time. It would be rude of me to do so without making a purchase of some sort." She said with that same courteous, yet emotionless tone. Inside she was marveling at everything in the shop and thoroughly in awe of the place, but it wouldn't do to openly gawk like an idiot. "As someone who deals in such things daily, what would you recommend? I'll be willing to pay for whatever you chose, naturally, but my repeat business will inevitably depend on what you chose." She decided. It was the most she could do not to walk over and start playing with the closest sharp object, and THAT would be undignified. Still, though, As a warrior at heart she was assessing the combat readiness of several of the items.
Oh, you're a smart one, aren't you. ... are you quite done talking?

I run but never walk. I have hands but no arms to see. Felix hopped up out of the chair and walked around the counter. He gave her a look over and thought about it. "One moment," he said to her. He then turned around and walked up stairs. When he got up there he looked around the aisles trying to find the item he was thinking about. He rummaged around through different things searching for the item. "Ahh here it is," He said finding the item he was looking for. It was a metal bracer and he took it back downstairs and placed it on the counter.

Natalia eyed the bracer curiously. It had a good design on it, and it appeared to have value as a piece of armor. She knew that if he was selling it it probably was more than what it seemed. She could see the practicality in it. It would easily cover the amount of skin her previous bracer had, and wouldn't sacrifice protection. She would have to see later if the metal it was fashioned out of was conductive or not, but she did love the design of it. "This is a very well crafted piece of metalwork. It would easily be worth a good amount of coin even without power in it. Might i ask why you made this particular selection?" She asked. She carried several swords, so she didn't doubt he would know her as a fighter, and she did walk around in armor... so she understood a lot of the selection was probably obvious. Still, though, she felt it would be best to ask. "Also, and pardon my ignorance, but might i inquire as to the less apparent nature of this particular piece?"
Oh, you're a smart one, aren't you. ... are you quite done talking?

I run but never walk. I have hands but no arms to see. Felix chuckled and walked around to behind the counter. "I choice this piece because it suits you. More than just as a piece of armor but also it has an affinity for you," He said sitting down. "That bracer is capable of self generating a small electrical charge. The original commission for it was for a full suit of armor crafted for a female warrior. She was a terror for her foes on the battle field, wielding lighting like she was a thunder god incarnate. The whole set is supposed to be powerful or so the stories say," He explained leaning back with a smile. "Perhaps you remind this piece of its former master," He said enjoying it. Felix loved the items that had a story and enjoyed telling others about them.

"It is beautiful, but i don't know what i'd do with an electrical charge." The lie caused a giant ripple to pass through her pride. She was one of the best lightning users in her clan, damnit, and playing ignorant was grating. "Maybe charge my mp3 player on it?" She joked. She immediately saw the use of the item, however she also was trying to keep her lightning abilities under wraps. Her freedom depended on her father not finding her. "What happened to the other pieces of the set? I happen to have a number of suits of armor from various time periods and this would be great for my collection." She commented, this time honestly. She was wearing armor on a shopping trip, so she couldn't exactly keep that under wraps. That was another thing. She needed to pick up casual clothes immediately. Wearing armor is too obvious. Maybe something baggy she could wear over her armor. "still, though, I'll take it. How much do you want for it?" She asked, slipping it on and ignoring the urge to make an lightning arc or two.

I run but never walk. I have hands but no arms to see. Felix shook his head and smiled. "First one is on the house. It is a courtesy I show all first time customers," He said as he stood back up. "As to what happened to the rest of it I am not sure. The full set was together at one point but the pieces have floated around everywhere. Where they could be I am not sure. There might be another one somewhere in this mess but even I am not sure about that. Most of this is in the same spot it was a few years ago," He said walking around. "However this might help you if you are hunting down something like that," He said picking up a book and bringing it over to her. "It has chronicles of many different artifacts and might be a good place to start, though this would not be on the house," He said setting it on the counter before he went and sat back down.

"I see. And how much would the book cost?" She asked, showing much less excitement then she actually felt. The idea of having an entire suit of armor similar to this one was too much to pass up. Though it would have to take a back seat to the whole, 'not getting married' bit. I mean, she was friends with the water clan's royal house, but she was NOT marrying her best friend's brother... and "lily?" totally not a rad last name. 'Natalia Lily" just sounded too cutesy and childish. She shivered.

I run but never walk. I have hands but no arms to see. Felix leaned back a bit thinking about it. "Hmm I would say around $50 considering the books condition, age, and wealth of knowledge that is probably a huge bargain," He said looking at her. He normally wouldn't want to sell it for that price but he figured that she needed it more than him at this point.

”They Continue To Think They Are So Safe”
Everden sat in the seat of the HUMV as they rolled slowly down the street. He was getting bored of sitting still in this vehicle for such a long time. He knew what they were here for. The satellite picked up two signals in this area and their goal was to try and neutralize the threats in the area. Kill or capture. As the three HUMV rolled around the corner, Everden looked at the target building. "Really? Is this it? The place looks like just a worn out shop. Couldn't of been anything more interesting." Everden sighed and climbed out of the vehicle, motioning to all the others to unload. As they did, several men climbed out of each of the HumVees, each of them carrying very strange looking firearms. Along with them though, large disc like objects began to fold open on top of the HUMV. As everything was setting up, another man approached Everden. "Is this the correct spot?" Everden looked down at the screen in his hand and made sure that the two blips were present. "Yes. Go get on the roof Garenth. You may be required here in the next few moments." As Garenth went around the most forward HUMV, Everden had all the rest of the men take position nearby.

Instincts are a b***h... or at least, they were in a war veteran who had spent too much time in intricate waiting games. Something didn't feel right, and Natalia had no idea what. Thy were in an enclosed space with shelving blocking their view, and Natalia had no way to assess the situation or prepare. How big was this force? Was it one person? was it one hundred? Was it a person at all? ******** if she knew. Her insides were just screaming. She vaulted behind the counter and pushed Felix to the ground. "Company" She said, starting to pull energy while she undid the chain she wore around her waist.
Oh, you're a smart one, aren't you. ... are you quite done talking?

I run but never walk. I have hands but no arms to see. Felix twisted out of her grasp and grabbed a bag from under the counter as he moved further back to the store. He grabbed what looked like a doorknob off a nearby shelf and opened the bag. "Artifacts in," He said as all the artifacts within the store not held by a person got sucked into the bag. He did this behind a support pillar. "I don't know about you but I am getting out of here, Oh and I lied earlier I know where another piece of that armor is," He said moving to the wall stabbing the doorknob into it.

”They Continue To Think They Are So Safe”
"In position sir!" One of the men said to Everden. The man looked down at him and nodded and immediately, the soldier crouched down, aiming his weapon towards the store. "Activate the Sonic Nets." The three HUMVs turned their large turrets towards the store, charging up for only a moment and then firing a focused beam of sonic energy, immediately shattering the glass windows of the store and sending the wave into the building. Two of the waves were aimed towards the counter, aiming to completely surrounding it in their effect. Cover would do very little against these weapons as they aimed to just put sound around the target. If caught inside of the wave, the balance within a person's eardrums would be thrown off, crippling them. The third sonic net was firing towards the door that the man escaped through. The sound waves going through the now open doorway. However, with the man not standing anywhere in line with the doorway, the waves did little more but prevent the woman from following.
