Skye backed up a few steps and looked backwards only to bump into a man at a pool table who turned and leered at her. Quickly backing up, she twitched a little and did her best to keep moving. Al around her people were doing things, and the chaotic feeling in the air was only heightening her fear. "Hey you..." A hand reached forwards and set itself on Skye's shoulder. The young woman had to fight the urge to scream and ended up making a weak 'ep' sound as she twisted around to see who it was and backed up. Lexington Fawks stared at Skye for a brief moment with a curious look on his face "Ya ok, dude? You looked kinda panicked.." he stated. Skye was dead silent but slowly nodded. She... she was alright. She was alright.
"I just...need to find my cousin.." she squeaked before turning to leave only to find the hand on her shoulder again. Freezing, she internally flinched before looking back.
"Hey Lex, I don't think he appreciates that," a blue haired man with similar golden eyes as 'Lex' walked up and shook his head. "Just let him go~" The hand was released from Skye's shoulder, and she quickly stepped back and away again. Both boys looked at one another before shrugging and offering smiles back at her. Skye hesitated but slowly smiled back. "You said you was looking for your cousin?" Law asked. Skye nodded a little. "Well... we'll help ya out. What does he or she look like?"
"Reddish black hair...she's shorter than me..." Skye mumbled weakly. The two nodded and then started to look around the casino. Unintentionally at least at first, Skye took this moment of their distraction to turn and run through the crowd. Something about those guys had... had really scared her... Something about those... gold eyes.... Rushing past a few people and knocking into a few more, she tripped and ended up falling flat on her face.
"Ya ok, kid?"' a voice asked, and as Skye looked up, she found a black woman with teal hair and yellow eyes looking down at her extending a hand out to help her up. Unlike those luring golden eyes, these at least appeared to care a little. Nodding her head, Skye took the hand and was slowly pulled up to her feet. Gwen, meanwhile, smiled a little at the white haired boy and then patted him on the shoulder before turning back to her game. Upon seeing this, Skye let a breath out and once again started to walk around.
"Fang? Fang where are you?" the white haired girl called.

Stepping back for a moment, she shook her head and forced herself to step forwards again walking further into the casino as she did so. There was a bust of sounds, lights, and games all over... and people seemed to be doing more than just playing those. Others sat around at tables and held cards to their faces while still others were rolling dice or something down a board. "Woah... it's... like one big game place..." the silver haired teen mumbled as she continued to walk around. "What do you think Fang...Fang?" Skye looked around startled to find that the woman was gone. EP.......

She still felt so shaken and wasn't even sure if she knew what to say if she tried to open her mouth. After a moment, she looked back to Ty and offered a weak smile. "......alright..." she said quietly nodding her head and trying -and failing- to smile more. "We... need to figure out how to get your name off those wanted posters..." she sighed after a moment.

"Alright....we can... probably find a doc somewhere or something in this city..." she mumbled only for her eyes to travel sideways at the sound of someone running. Rather than Teme, whom she was sure it was, a red haired man went running by pursued by a brown haired woman. "Indiana! Indiana get back here!" a voice shouted causing Nami to sweat drop and set a hand to her heart before sighing. Thank... thank God that wasn't... Looking back at Ty, Nami slowly moved away- forcing herself to full height and bringing up a hand to her face trying to regroup.

Nik's reply caused Stormy's face to falter a little, and the flat line that came to her lips stayed there even as he did take her hands and put his forehead to hers. The sudden kiss on the forehead caused a soft blush and a softer smile, and that giddiness came back again as quickly as it had diminished. With quick ease, she walked with him down the hallway and to the room.
As they came into the room, Stormy looked around it habitually before stepping forwards and sitting down on the edge of the bed, presumably pulling Nik with her. "You've... been working hard, hu?" Stormy asked offering a cheesy smile as she mentally strove to kick her confidence and such back up the ladder. Of course he'd been working hard! He was the new Duke after all, and he was her Nikkibear~ She knew he could do it (even if maybe he didn't want to).
After a moment, she leaned her head on his shoulder and just sighed. This - just this- was pretty nice... very nice....

Hopefully the cashier would... understand a day or two delay in payment especially with ....just....yeah. "I..." she started before slowly finding herself standing up as Ty did so. "I think... my arm'll be ok.." she mumbled before reaching sideways and setting a hand on it finding blood trailing down it. Shock was preventing the pain but also making it hard for her to tell how bad it was.

However, when it came, eyes closed all the same, and for all the fear and anxiety and aggression that still plagued her, for a brief moment, a sliver of peace wormed its way into her skin. Ty... I think... I ... might love you... Hadn't she known it all along though? He'd been her first actual kiss, the pecks even... He'd been her friend at the fair and been her traveling buddy for who knew how long now? He was always right there, and it agitated her to no end of the thought of him dying.
Breaking the kiss, she leaned her head on his shoulder and just breathed in again feeling the tears still flow but caught in a flurry of emotion that left her raw. She was happy. She was sad. She was happy. She was sad. Damn it all why couldn't she just pick one at the moment? This wasn't dress color shopping though and...
......heh....
"T.....Ty... I think... I stole a dress...." Nami murmured, a weak humor from the situation setting in.

It was comforting. It was ridiculously comforting, and just being able to be held made her want to cry more for reasons Nami wasn't even sure of. However, she slowly forced herself to stop and gulped rather hard. He arm? Nami didn't even register the pain, yet as she slowly allowed her vision to take in the small cut that was the remnant of her close proximity to death, she gulped, bit her lip, and forced herself not to cry out again. Looking up, Nami found herself staring at Ty- those crisp blue eyes, and for a brief moment she just stared. "T-ty that... I...." she started to break again, ad her voice quivered weakly.

Bursting into tears less than a second after that, the woman sobbed rather hard and proceeded to shake her head and sob harder. She had no words to describe her level of fear that was breaking higher than her pain at the moment. "I hate that bitch! I hate her! I hate her! I hate her! That fucking bitch!" she screamed out but her voice collapsed on her right in the middle and ended up coming out as a pained whisper.

Nami was screaming, screeching, and wailing like the banshee herself even after having her arm pulled and her entire body dragged off by Ty out of the store and down the street. Rage had blinded her, and fear was only egging it on. She wanted to go back and kill that woman for even daring to harm the one constant in her life at the moment, and yet she was pulled along down the street and away from Teme. Slowly her voice died down, and her legs worked faster. Thus, they ran.
Temera Efrette scowled and watched as the man took off. Forcing herself to her feet, she quickly took chase after the man in question and the woman he had been with. At first she had caught the general direction, yet when Nami had finally stopped screaming, she found herself caught in the maze of streets that was the city. Growling, she simply continued to run and look for her target -targets now. That woman was going to pay big time for this.

Teme's head darted when the seashell was tossed, and slowly heading that way, the woman aimed her gun through the smoke and growled a little like some feral cat. Nami's eyes grew, and her face went scarlet at Ty's words. She sat there startled for a few seconds feeling her heart beat screaming in her ears. He loved her? He loved her. And he was going to die just like... all the other people she loved? Something deep within Nami snapped and snapped hard. Shoving herself up, she twisted around and found the first thing that came to her hand. Teme, meanwhile, was focused on where Ty was yelling. "Shove it, jackass! Your head is on the list!" the blond haired woman barked. Suddenly the sound of running could be heard. Teme's head darted in the direction but before she could raise her gun, Nami swung. Wood cracked on skull, and the brown haired woman was left standing there seething: blue eyes wild with terror and aggression. "Don't you dare hurt him!" she screamed raising what she had taken up - a wooden cane of some sort- and sent it cracking down again on a very disoriented Teme. The blond hared woman blocked the attack with her gun this time and proceeded to shove Nami back before trying to aim the gun and finding it hard.

Upon hearing Ty's words, Nami physically fidgeted and shook her head forcing herself back up again though lower than she was at full height. "I'm not leaving you!" she shouted back. Suddenly a bullet went whizzing by, and Nami was left staring in horror that it had come so close. For a few seconds, she just stood there, and after that, she managed to take a step back and ended up falling flat on her butt again. Maybe... maybe she should get out but... but he.... "You... you better come find me later or I swear I'll..." Nami didn't get to finish her statement as the sounds of feet entering vibrated. "Come out!" Teme barked still with her arm pressed against her nose and mouth.

As smoke began to fill the room, Teme's eyes grew and narrowed again. Swearing under her breath, the blond woman pulled up and arm and put it over her mouth to keep herself from taking in the air. Staring into the room, she stepped out again waiting for those to run by to get out. Upon hearing Ty's call, Nami's eyes widened, and she forced herself up. Pushing the store clerk who was trying to get her to go out with her, Nami started to move through the smoke disregarding her own problems at the moment. "Ty? Ty!?" she called through the smoke before suddenly tripping over something and flinching. Ow. She'd hit her arm again...Teme growled and watched as various people ran out of the store but not her target, damn it.

Nami had been hit -though not lethal and not even through her vitals. The bullet had grazed her arm causing her to cry out startled and fall sideways on the same damn arm. Flinching, she ended up curling by the register for a brief moment before fear compelled her to move behind something. No sooner had she started to crawl than the woman behind the register seized her by the arm and pulled her behind. Nami nearly screamed, yet when she realized what the other woman was doing, she nodded and hid behind the counter.
"Hey! I know there's a Ty somethin' or other in here! Get your ass out here!" Teme barked venomously as she stopped shooting if only for a brief moment. Reloading her guns, the blond haired woman waited and looked around the room with a heated anticipation about her.

Nami could have face/floored a million times over had she not caught sight of Ty's hand After a second or so, she took it and stood up slowly again before starting to set the things that had dropped back up as well. "Yeah.. remind me not to do that in a crowded store..." she mumbled a little before shaking her head and slowly looking back at Ty. "I'm going to take this to the register," she said after a moment pulling the tag from the dress before starting to walk over.
Just then, Temera Efrette walked into the store straight backed and leering. "Hey! You!" she barked at Ty before pointing her gun at him. "Your bounty is mine!" she barked before releasing a barrage of bullets. The few people in the store suddenly broke into panic as screams of fear rang out.

Fighting back this urge, she removed her hand again and offered an easy smile and rubbed the back of her neck. "I... thanks..." she beamed a little and couldn't help but giggle -giggle?!- if only a little. "I think... Yep I think I'm getting it," she stated flatly before spinning around lightly -only to trip on the rug that was in the store and go crashing into a table. The cashier flinched. So much for graceful...

"I'm gonna try it on," she grinned before practically skipping to the back. Dodging under a rack of clothes before disappearing into a dressing room, Nami closed the door quickly after that. The cashier who had watched all this put a hand to his heart and let a cool breath out. Thank Arceus she hadn't broken anything. Meanwhile, sounds of moving could be heard, and in another second, Nami came out once more wearing the dress. It clung a little but fit her figure rather nicely. "It feels really durable.. and really soft..." she hummed a little twirling about and causing her dress to flare a little. [/scrolly] |
