Winter and Four entered Winter's room. She flicked turned on the lights in her private room, not too bright, but not too dim either. There was a simply desk with a lamp on it, tucked into a corner.A few files with papers inside of them sat patiently on the desk.

In the middle of Winter's room was a large Queen-sized bed, neatly made.

"Its not much my room and the ship. But at least its comfy enough."

[HEADING=3]The City of Cape Town, South Africa.[/HEADING]​

In the harbors, all the boats that once majestically floated were all sunken. Some were completely submerged while others slowly sank. The city itself was taken right from a fire-bombing video from World War II, buildings collapsed and not a single person insight. Just a few mechs that made a patrol around. They spotted the Atomos, but didn't care. They had the city, and that's all that matter.

From above, Gabranth and Athena could see that the destruction had perfectly created the Crusader's symbol. A human skull, encased around a kite shield. At the bottom, the faint words in Latin could be seen.

OoC: @Outis Well, so do I. Trust me, the worst story I read recently was about a nation where slavery still exists (like in Roots) while it is technically illegal. It was made illegal in 1985, I think.

"Hmm how to fix the problem of clothes with blood stains on them. Man I sure do wish that John guy had more clothes in his bag. Hmmm there is always the choice of being naked. But people don't seem to like that. And they will never stare at my face. Sometimes they just stare at the ground. I wonder why though"

@Salty: Humans do cruel things to each other. That's pretty much fact. And the basis of the Vanguard Universe.

1985? Wow... that's a long time... Just... wow

Four shrugged and said to Winter, "It's nicer than my ship. Then again that's not really saying very much."

"I really doubt that." Winter chuckled, taking a seat on her bed. "[sub]Four... Do you know what happened when you jumped into combat?[/sub]"

"Alright then. I think I'll do the same, actually.
Good night, Riou."
Erica said, then headed to her own room.

"She was being dificult. It's too much of a hassle to keep watch all the time." Kefka replies as he went back to his desk.

"I think it is safe to say this constitutes as a threat..." abranth remarks as he looked at the destruction below.

OoC @Outis: The world's a nasty place.

"Well after all those holes got blown into my ship today there really isn't any contest any more." Four said with a chuckle that petered out into a sad sigh. [small]"It's gonna take me forever to fix all of that."[/small]
"I got pissed off that someone was blowing holes in my house. That's what happened." She answered Winter's question.

"Hey, I can help patch those things up if you like." Winter chuckled back. Her mood sullied

"[sub]Four... You entered a blood-rage and your voice changed again...[/sub]" Winter looked down.

"But what's the fun if she can't experience fear?" Luca replied.

"Anther one to deal with? Fantastic..."

OoC: @Rosh Agreed. But I think it's important to note that while your characters might do certain things that doesn't mean you are condoning them.
@Outis Well, some estimates say that there are some 12 million people still living as slaves. There are even some in America. Yes, even America is said to have some underground slavery. I think the estimate is fairly low mind you. Then, there's THIS [http://www.cnn.com/interactive/2012/03/world/mauritania.slaverys.last.stronghold/index.html] story that I was referencing. It will break your heart, so be careful, and go in knowing that.

Anyway, think I'll go to bed for now.

@Salty: Of course. Some of the characters I created are for the sole purpose of showing how bad things are if pushed to extremes. Also, Good night dude.

Yumi just started pacing around the hall in deep thought about this problem of hers.

"I would really appreciate the help on that. The hull looks like friggin' swiss cheese." Four said, smiling at Winter. She stepped closer and put a hand on her shoulder. "And I was just angry. You need to stop worrying about me so much."

OoC @Salty: I don't condone a lot of things that the characters here do. Doesn't mean I'm gonna object to it.
If everybody was a goodie-two-shoes, that'd just be goddamn boring.
Also, g'night. ^.^
@Rosh: Where would Kayle be?

"Oh, but there'll be plenty of times to have some fun, I assure you.
This is just spending time wisely. The time saved not having to check up on her can be spend on the good things! Like senseless carnage!
Whahohoho!"

[hr]
"I can agree with that sentiment..." Gabranth said as he landed the Atomos some distance away from the city.

"Nothing a few things I can't scrap from my own ship." Winter chuckles.

She tapped a few buttons on her wrist communicator as it replayed Four's voice and with a few quick modifications her normal voice and her anger voice were world's apart. She shook her head as it shown snap shots of Four's IS, the body language fixated on one thing only; murder.

"[sub]Four... I've seen this rage before. I carry the exact same thing. And I refuse to let my emotions get the better of me. I do it because I don't want to end up hurting anybody here. I don't want to wake up and see that I have destroyed everything I hold dear...[/sub]

@Nail: Hold on...
[hr]
Kayle is within visible sight of the Atomos with her sword ablaze, cutting down mechs.
"How unjust this world is... Cruelty against man, cruelty against nature! It's sickening!" she bellowed, cutting down another mech.

"That's different. I had a reason to be angry. It's not like I just get mad at the drop of a hat or anything." Four said to Winter.

OOC: Hmm, I wonder if this would be a decent time to introduce my character for the neutral team...

Winter laid back in the bed. "I know... Perhaps I do worry too much."

But it won't stop me from keeping track of this behavior change. I love her too much. And I WON'T see that I will have to kill her in the end. I won't allow that future to occur.
[hr]
Kayle, finished with the mechs, sighs, as her sword's flames disappears. "Its late.."

The sounds of combat that could be heard even through the thick hull of the Atomos, intrigued Gabranth. He had not seen anyone stand against those that laid waste to the city, afterall. Who could this be?
Gabranth exited the Atomos and looked around where he saw a familiar sight. It was the armour winged woman he had seen before. Figuring this would be a good time to assess the Kayle's combat prowess and subsequently her worth, Gabranth walked closer, though not with the intention of comming to her aid. Merely wishing to observe.
From behind his helmet, Gabranth cocked an eyebrow when he saw Kayle had dispatched the mechs all on her own. Perhaps I ought to reconsidder.
"You there..."
He said, walking closer to Kayle.

OoC @Drak: Go for it.

Kayle looked at Gabranth. "Oh. Good evening to you. I was just bringing about justice to this city in any way possible." she sighed. "What a lawless bunch that William person has brought..."
