Welcome to Gaia! ::

Port Yokosuka:

Ascendant; Submerged nearby: Deep Sea

A trio of six year olds, two boys and one girl, were tinkering around with Idrial's unconscious body... after having fetched a change of clothes, more so a life-size doll's set of clothes instead. The three six year olds were accompanied by a eight year old girl, who had more or less dragged Erina over to babysit them. The room more or less resembled a daycare center, minus the workers and staff and with a more serious environment. There were one way mirrors around the walls, allowing only those outside to observe what happened inside.

Erina nodded to the eight year old, who promptly brought over a syringe which contained a stimulant used to wake people up, though fatigue while awake was a completely different matter. The child picked out a section of Idrial's wrist and poked it in, emptying it in full before pulling it out, discarding it in the trash bin, and returning to Erina's side hugging her leg like a rock. Erina sighed and looked on and over at Idrial.

"Hello there, sleeping beauty," said Erina. She raised an eyebrow. "Don't mind them, they'll get bored of it... eventually." It didn't sound too hopeful as the doll-like clothes was technically a maid outfit...borrowed from someone else. The three 6 year olds noticed that Idrial was awake and messed around with the outfit Idrial was dressed into while keeping a seemingly tight grip on it. "A Geass user I presume?" guessed Erina from trying to lip read Idrial. It wasn't her strong point, but it was the first thing that came to mind due to the recent events affected by Geass Users. She held back from making another assumption to avoid being perceived as unsure.

Erina kept her facial expression blank. If that's right then... what about- "You're the one who was piloting that abnormal knightmare. The one that went through and back from the shield that the Nephilim had set up," replied Erina. "Does that give you a clue to who I am and where you are?" She didn't mind taking guesses, provided that there had been proof to support her claims. The video feed she had checked wasn't very clear, but it was obvious that the knightmare belonged to a Geass User for certain. All that was left now was to await either confirmation on their suspensions, or not.

Everything's confirmed then. Now let's see how she reacts to this "In short, hostile territory if you consider me, the children, and the place your at, occupied by your enemies. Otherwise, a guest," replied Erina. "And you can consider me their babysitter and this their playroom. And well, don't want to interrupt the children's playtime no?"

"Your own personal goals?" asked Erina. She smiled endearingly at Idrial. She paused for a second before speaking, patching up her previous question. "Not that it'll affect your fate. So don't worry, you won't die or anything of the sort, unless you try something. Like say Geass, your Knightmare, or harming anyone in here other than yourself." She raised her hands in the air to prove to Idrial that she wasn't armed.

"Vengeance is short termed and self destructive. Better have something long term to work it into," replied Erina. "Because of, well, security reasons, I can't and I won't either way. And for that matter I'm not going to ask for your name either. But thanks for informing me on your partner's name."

"You could call me Boss, if you don't like it. And, a suggestion for your long term goal. How about changing the world? Through whatever means necessary, short of terrorism and unnecessary destruction. That is, not Nephilim. They are our enemy, and one that doesn't deserve the mercy that others receive," replied Erina. She paused for a moment as she remembered something relevant. "Oh and it seems they turned a spy of the Black Knights over to their side. From what I recall... I think his name was Asura. That ring any bells?" Even if she failed to persuade or convince the girl, at least she would be doing something beneficiary to both of them.

"I'd say... from current history that country would be, Britannia. The second guesses would obviously be the Chinese Federation since they've been going at the same thing Britannia has," replied Erina. She nodded. "We just eliminate combatants until it's a stalemate. Those who do more than that, are our enemy."

At that moment, the door opened and Esther walked in, closing the door behind her. "Don't worry, we don't think you're insane or out of your mind."

"Of course not, or else wouldn't that make the Leader and Ex-Shinigami and Fiona all the same?" added Erina.

"No, Master is different," replied Esther crisply. She stared at Erina in regards to the latter's words. She blinked before smiling and striding over to Idrial. "You're more than welcome to join us... provided you can prove that we can trust you."

"Not again Esther-sama," sighed Erina in resignation.

Esther snapped at Erina for the latter's words. "We're not doing 'that'."

"I didn't mean to imply-" She stopped mid-sentence and promptly shut up as she came to full realization the track and outcomes she was going down to. It was better to stop than get led around and tick off her superior. "Sorry about that outburst," apologized Erina.
