Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Come on. In you go," she briskly ushered in the stranger after opening Luciano's door. Normally she would have introduced the visitor to her boss upon entering, but seeing that he revealed nothing about himself, she closed the door behind her and stood quietly with her arms crossed over her chest. And so, she waited expectantly for the two men to begin their conversation.

(Are we in your office or your room, Ange? Dx )

(( XD Office, Babe! Sorry for the confusion! ))

Twi was fixing up his house with his new array of Gold Medals and the fourth-place ribbon for the olympics. he could hardly believe it -- Durem made last place. it must have been the first time in Gaian history. still, he couldn't help but to smile at that. for all of that effort they still got 4th-place, but it didn't stop Durem from trying harder than they ever had before. not to mention, he had made some new friends both on the team and outside of it.

he had been staying in touch with Louie Von Helson alot more as well, since the bombing of H&R Wesley. the rebuild shop was looking very nice now, and he decided it was even better than before.

but that was not the end of things. it weighed heavily on his mind what Louie had asked of him the other day; thinking about it again made him gulp. but if what Louie said was true, he had no other choice. he had to put a stop to the Don's activities at once.

Twi left his house after he finished redecorating, and went to find Louie again. he was going to give him his answer -- that he would help the Vampire Clans who defected from Kuro Gang affiliation and join the war against them. he knew his treachery to the Dark Elf race would be complete with this decision, but enough was enough.

walking the streets at night had become normal for him now. he took the long way to H&R Wesley, stalling himself and admiring the city and the starry sky.

Charlotte tried to even out her shallow breaths or at least quiet them. Quickly drying her finger tips on her jeans, she grabbed the hilt with both hands and went back to work. 'This would go so much faster with a credit card...to bad I already used it,' she thought finally feeling the thin blade hit the junction of door and door frame. She gave herself efforts a small smile, which didn't last long as she heard distant shuffle of her not-so-stealthy trackers.

She was tempted to drop the knife so she could turn and fight, but then decided that knife fighting looked better than bare hands (or in her care gloved hands). She rammed the knife into the wedge again when she looked up noticing the light that had been on wasn't anymore. Either they were closer than she had thought or...

"Clever little bloodsuckers aren't they...they brought a caster along," she muttered rolling her eyes before she went back to work. It was barely a second before she heard a soft tick. Holding the knife in place, she grasped the door handle and gently pulled it open. She nearly groaned from the lack of an alarm, but then again the caster would be running magical electrical interference wouldn't they. She was just taking stock of the dark hallway ahead of her when, mostly out of feeling she chanced a glance behind her. She ducked barely missing knife that went wheezing ahead of her into the shadowy hallway. Bolting inside after it, she snatched it up on her way in hoping or possible praying that one of the members had broken habit and had decided to keep normal dark elf waking hours.

The soft clank of a metal object falling in the right wing hallway made Waffle stop and turn around in curiosity. Nobody should have been in there this late at night. Next came the sound of someone picking up the object and several pairs of feet tapping lightly against the tile floor, approaching the lobby. Her eyes went wide. It's a break in, isn't it?

She drew in a quick breath, then shouted as loudly as she could toward the stairs to the upper floor of the building, "We have a break in at the right wing! Get down here now!"
She coughed and darted up the stairs to get her orb, repeating what she just shouted, although it was likely that someone else would jump into the fray.

A hand smashed through the her side table shield forcing Charlotte's knees to brace against it. Using the force of her opponent, she slammed the table further up their arm. Only then toss it and the vampire attached to it aside to block the other ones advancement.

Hallways fighting was not her strength. No way to toss a knife or sneak in a jab when all three of her attacked so close. Flipping back, she dodged blast of flame from the caster. Who had apparently and unfortunately, given up on keeping the electrical interference spell going. Coming to a stop, she realized three things. One that the lack of spell meant that alarms must have triggered. Two she wouldn't be alone for long and three she entered a large room. In fact, it was pretty spacious.

'Sadly that doesn't give me an advantage...not with a bloody cast-' she cut her thoughts dodged another blast. Then narrowly missed getting clawed again. Punching the plasma sucking in the throat, she realized again three things. One footsteps were sounding from above her, two there were two people shout, and three both were shouting for back up. 'Great.'
