join if you wish ...

The names Rey Loys. I run a little shop downtown Varnasia, selling magic scrolls. Of course that's all for show. The scrolls are useless.

The truth is I'm a criminal. A thief to be exact, a rob banks for a living ... sometimes vaults. People hire me, the rich folk. They tell me about a painting another ones got locked in a vault, they say I can keep whatever else is in there usually.

See I got meself into a little trouble the other day, this guy sends me a letter. He's one of those rich folk see. He says he got me little sister safe right?

Now the guy wants me to a job for him. Otherwise bye bye sister.
You see I maybe a crook but I got me own set of morals. Families should be untouchable right?

Any ways, I'm in a bit of a jiffy. See here the rich guy wants me to rob this bank that he himself owns. Weird eh? Long story short the truth is that he's a pawn, his uncle owns the bank, he wants out of this trap, see? So he comes up with this plan to steal all the riches inside, then run off into the land. Probably hire some mercanaries to keep himself safe.

The security for the banks top notch. Guards at all times. Plus what other demons they got.

The problem for me is that I just one guy. I need like a whole crew to take that place down.

The Breed of Criminals.

I hope some one will read the flyer. Come to my shop. The reward is how much you can take. I want nothing - jus' me sis'.
________


The whole place had seen better days, it wasn't long ago that he had gone out on a quest but his little shop was now a mess. His sister had done a great job at screwing up all the sections. Scrolls were everywhere.
He began to tidy wondering how much she had sold for him when he was out. First he fixed up the healing isle at the front of the room. Then worked around the small little shop.
Rey had taken off his coat when he walked in the door, it lay flat on a rackk near the counter. When everything seemed in order he sat back behing the counter, he though where is she?
'Urghh' he groaned as he stood up, time to check the supplies out back ... or rather his own personal .... gear.
He opened up a small locked door behind the counter, boxes of scrolls lay everywhere. He weaved through them to the back of the room. A small table lay alone with a couple of cabinets and a small safe. First he checked the safe, a combination of 4, 17, 2, 14, and 5 opened it. It was empty as he had left it.
He moved onto the cabinet, it contained his files. He shifted his hat out of his eyes to check the contents.
'Good.' he muttered as he noticed the last one read ..... Job: Theif - cash, RR. That was the last job he had done before leaving for his .... other business.
He sighed as he sat down on the only stool at the table, everything was in order. He brushed his hand across the table and layed down. His hand felt a small bit of paper.
'Huh,' groaned Rey.
He unfolded the paper.

We got your sister. Come meet us alone. We'll be waiting at the Last Oak.

It wasn't signed.
'What!' shouts Rey after he finishes reading.

Well that was a week ago. He had met the people at the inn, they had a job for him ... bigger than any thing he had ever done before .... anything that any criminal had done in this town before.
He had sent out an offer through the local net works ... but no one replied. This job was impossible for just one person. The other crims of Varnasia must of thought the job was too risky, even though the pay could keep them along for a few years at least.
So Rey Loys needed some other way to find some guys to help him.

Late afternoon 8th day.

The scroll shop was closing soon, Rey noted that he had a larger amount of customers than usual. Around this time most days he could close early, he sister must have brought in some new customers. Rey wasn't concerned though.
A couple of girls was searching through a section, Rey decided to help out.
'Everythin' 'right gals, don't need any help?' he ask behind the pair.
'No sir, just this one.' she giggled
'That'll be jus' a copper.' he smile.
They were his last customers that day, he closed the store not long after they had left. He pulled his brown coat and hat over himself and left out into the night.
The streets were packed as usual. Not really to his liking, he took the back streets to his local bar. Varnasia was a widespread city, apart from the main line of shops and stalls the rest of the place was in all directions.
The tavern was just a small walk away. He knew the locals inside well enough but wasn't close to any of them. He picked his usual spot at the far corner of the bar. He sat with his back up againast the wall. The metal in his coat was nice against his back.
'The usual.' he muttered.
The owner wasn't much to look at, sort of over weight and had a long grey beard. His head was bald. He cleaned a large glass and half filled it with a brown liquid then topped up the glass with what appeared to be water. He slid it down the bar to Rey.
The drink didn't really have much of a taste, one time it was bitter and another slightly sweet. All Rey cared for was that is was very strong.
'So hows it going Rey? asked the owner jokingly.
'Ye know, so shut up.' he muttered angrily.
Even though Rey had hated his magic it had it's uses sometimes. He flicked a small flame to his pointer finger, it spread to his other fingers tips. The sprang awy to the owners beard, it roared with fire, Rey clicked and the fire was gone.
The bar keeper mumbled something then walked away.
Rey sat back and closed his eyes. He continued to drink silently.

Seth had been walking for some time.
He had heard of a shop, that sold scrolls. He hoped for any water magics there. Perhaps one that conjures water, or makes it rain.

He sighed, and went on.

Somne time later, he ended up infront of The mentioned shop. But it was closed.
"Crud" he muttered to himself.

He had been walking for some time, in hopes of getton there, and now it was closed.

His hear dipped, nad he sighed as he left for a tavern. Perhaps stay the night, and shop tomorrow.

A few minutes later, he entered a neaby tavern. It was not too crowded. a few people here and there.

He went over to the bar, sat there, and called teh barkeep. Which seemed to have burned his beard not too long ago.
Seth dismissed this as an accident on the kitchen.

"Yo. Barkeep. The bigggest mug you have, and fill it with water."
the barkeep grunted in confusion. But he poured it nontherless.

"that will be 2 copper" the barkeep said as he served the great mug with water.

Seth took a good drink, and seemed to me energized with it.

"Yo. barkeep" Seth started, "do you know when the magic shop down the road,will open?"
 
'Hey noble looking guy!' shouts Rey. He gestures for the guy with clean skin to come over to him. 'I ain't openen it til' tomora.'

He sat his drink down on the bar. He crept along to the noble-guy. 'Bu' if ya didn come ta buy scrolls ... may hap we can a talk here.'

The barkeep laughed at that.

Rey shot him a glare.
 
"noble?" Seth thought, he didn't look like a noble, did he?

He was having slight problems understanding this person, at first.

"Well. My main idea, was to buy scrolls, but that can change, depending on what you wish to talk about" He grinned, as he walked over to this persons table.
 
'Well yall Nobles like to have rich coffers righ? So I got sum fun planned ...' he smirked at the guy with clean looking skin. 'You rich folk r all they sum.'

He had a few of his drinks by now.

'Wanting ta put more money in ya pokeet .... but en gen uer comen innn herers asking bout mesh scrolls.'

'Butt hay, have a seat.' he slurred and tried to poke the guy, although his aim was .... well not there.

'Tha nema ista umm. .... he he ... right ... it Rey.' he looked over to the barkeep. 'Bringuss sunfun ta eats.'
 
"Well then" Seth started. "I guess you have you're night planned" he snickered, at his drunken state.

"Ill get a room, come talk to me as you sober up, or we can meet at your shop, if you open tomorrow" He grinned.

He walked over to the Innkeeper, and payed for a room. Not too expensive one though.

He left, towards his room, guessing for some sleep before the day after.
He had some way to travel, after he had checked through the scrolls.
 
'Those rich folk are all the same.' Rey said to Barkeeper, 'I have a few strong drinks and he think's I was drunk. I mean I was only pretending to talk like that.'

The bar keeper shook his head, 'So you still want that food?

'Nah, gotta ge home, plannen ta do.' He walked out onto the main road and head out for his little shop.
 
He came to the door that had the same number as his key... 1..
Seth chuckled.

He entered, and found that the room was sorta low standard, but it was plenty if one took the price in thought.

Seth closed, and locked the door. And proceeded with undressing.
His clothes where laid on a chair, in order for fast dressing, if it was needed.

He creped under the blanket, and started to fall asleep.

Evan was walking down the streets of Varnasia with Boko walking next to him, the large Chocobo was taking one step to every 3 of Evan's, he was looking around for a hotel with stables next to it for Boko to sleep in, "there is one" he announced to the bird "KWEH!!" Boko replied, the two walked over to the hotel and Evan went in, Boko had to wait outside, he walked over to the main desk and placed hi right hand on the counter
Evan: "can i have a room and a stable slot please?"
Clerk: "yes you can...thats 100 gil for the room and 250 for the stable slot"
Evan: "so 350 Gil, thats not bad"
Evan handed the clerk his Gil and the Clerk handed him two keys both with the number 14 on them
Evan: "thanks"
as Evan left the hotel to put Boko in the stable the clerk shouted "enjoy your stay" to him Evan exited through the door and walked towards the stable closely followed by Boko, upon arrival he left boko in the stable slot and locked the door "stay here over night then we are moving on to a different town" he gave Boko one last pat on the head and then he went inside.
he walked up the hotel stairs and into room 14 he locked the door behind him and got undressed, he then grabbed a towel and went for a shower
 
The hour wasn't all that late when he walked through the scroll magic shop. He feeled his way through the back room to the area that had his desk. The note from over a week ago still sat there, he brushed it aside and pulled out a layout of the bank from on of the cabinets.

Rey traced his finger along several routes, he could see no weakness yet. He had done the same thing every night. It seemed inpenetrable, demons warlocks and other creatures guarded each way.

The only weakness he noted was that there seemed to be less guards at night for some reason. But of course he already knew that several guards slept at inns across the street.

He sighed and rubbed his head. His hat floated away to the floor, he ignored it. Soon an hour had went past.

A second gone.

He knew still that even if he used all his powers of the Razier, he could not breach the vault.

He gave up not long later, he felt his way through the scroll boxes and cabinets to find another door, he unlocked it and entered. Rey through himself down onto the bed, he though about the informant he was seeing tomorrow. Don't know him, trust him or care for him, was the code he followed when meeting an informant.

He needed help he had already realised.
 
once Evan had finished in the shower he strode out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist he let out a large sigh and then looked into the mirror.
After 10 minutes of staring at himself he decided it was time to give up on this day and sleep until the next. He sat on the Bed and buried his face in his hands he then lay flat on the bed with his knees of the edge and his feet flat on the floor and fell asleep.
 
OOC: sorry, a friend invaded me for the weekend.
He left now, so I can post ^^
So. I will make it daytime. So we can get it moving ^^

ALSO. Seth (my char) and Kira's character know each other.
You will note this when we actually meet ^^
--------------------------------


Seth awoke, the heat was too much, perhaps he should not use the blanket the next time.
He got up, tuned on the water, and streamed it to himself. Regaining the lost water.

"Ahh... Much better" he smiled to himself.
he got dressed, and looked at the time.
It was roughly 10AM.
He decided to pay the scroll shop a visit. perhaps the owner had slept off the booze.

He exited the door, after dressing himself.
And he left out the main exit.

As he exited the door. He heard a unique sound.
it sounded like a chocobo. But he dismissed it as a mistake.

He headed towards the scroll shop
 
Evan was lying peacefully sleeping when a load sound woke him up "KWEH!!" the sound happened again and he figured out that it was indeed his beloved pet Boko being tormented by some children he walked over to his belt and grabbed his piece of chalk the he walked over to the wall and drew a transmutation circle, he then opened his window and lent out "he you kids, leave that bird alone" one of the boys looked up at him with a smile on his face "Hey Mr go back to bed and we wont throw rocks at you" Evan smile "okay but i did warn you to leave the bird alone" he place his right hand on the transmutation circle it began to glow and the boys arms and legs were grabbed by the earth that had shot out of the ground.
Evan then climbed back into his room and shut the window he pulled his jeans on, strapped his belt to his waist, grabbed his T-shirt and walked downstairs it was a sunny day so he didn't put his T-shirt on and he walked over to the trapped boys.
Boy 1: "Hey jerk lets us go"
Boy 2: "yea we will tell our daddies to come beat you up if you don't"
Evan: "haha, listen kid I'm an Alchemist, you think your daddies scare me ?"
Boy 2: "Your no Alchemist, your too young"
Evan threw his saddle over Boko's back and made sure all of his components were still in it even thought his saddle was in a locked safe, he never did trust shifty Inn keepers, he then looked at the boys
Evan: "If I'm not an Alchemist explain your current situation"
 
Seth got to the shop, but it had not yet opened.
He sighed, and left.
He opened his coin purse. It was rather empty, he could not buy many scrolls with that.
Perhaps a small job to make it heavier.

he walked over to a nearby board, that stated "Jobs" with worn letters.
He browsed the wanted files.
Chefs, bakers, guards, nurses, hookers?
He was rather surprised by that last one.
But one would never know.
he continued browsing, until be found a better one.
"Bodyguard for one day, good pay"

He smiled, and ripped of the flyer.
He looked around ,and stopped a pedestrian, to ask for directions.

He was directed, and left.

As he arrived, he was told that Mr. SN was the one he would protect.
The man had various jewelry, and Seth got a feel to rob him, instead.
He was not to fat, but his stomach bulged a little.
He had short greasy black hair, and a slightly longer nose the normal.

But Seth he continued with the job.
the details where simple.
Later that day, there would be an assassination attempt, and it became Seth's job to halt the assassins.
His pay would be 500 gold coins.
Which was a rater good one for such a job.

Seth had one requirement, that he had a good deal of water to his disposition.
The men where confused, but assured that there was a fountain at the site.

Seth accepted the job, and was lead to his home mansion.
there Mr. SN entered a big room, without any windows, just a simple door.
Where Seth was stationed.

Outside of the door, there where a few small fountains, as well as one large one.
"this dude is loaded" Seth muttered to himself.

He took predations, he gathered a big orb of water, and froze a thin layer of ice on all the surrounding walls.
He used the gained energy, to keep the m frozen.
This was his alarm.

This way, he could feel when the ice was shattered, and he would know where the intruder was.

Seth gathered a massive amount of water, and just dropped it on the floor.
That would help him if there where a battle, and of anyone neared his position.

"Come get me" Seth smiled, as he waited

Evan was walking down the street when he over heard two men talking "WHAT DO YOU MEAN A BODYGUARD?" the first man stated sounding angry "well apparently he is an Alchemist, one who controls Ice and water" the second replied Evan had a strange feeling that he knew who they were talking about "hey you two" he shouted over "why do you care so much about someone's bodyguard" the first man saw Evan sword and signaled him to come over, so Evan did "are you any good with that thing?" he asked "yes why?" Evan replied, the first man looked around to make sure no one was looking then he handed Evan a piece of paper.
Evan read the paper and smiled "this is a request for me to assassinate someone" Evan stated "yea can you do it or not?" the man replied "why isn't there any thing in the 'price secti..." Evan asked but the man interrupted "thats for you to fill out" Evan looked at the man and smiled "it'll cost you 3000 gold coins" the man Smiled "i shall send my son to the bank for you" the man waved his hand at a man stood in the door way and then filled out the price section "there sign here please" the man pointed to a part of the contract and Evan signed it, the man then Handed Evan the contract and gave him directions to the house, Evan then walked to get Boko and remembered about the boys. He arrived at the hotel released the boys and mounted Boko, he whispered the directions in Boko's ear and they left.
Five minutes later they arrived at a mansion, Evan dis mounted Boko and walked towards the house attempting not to step on any of the Ice "i recognize this" he thought to himself.
He walked up to the house and noticed the frozen room
He looked inside and saw two people one fitting the description of MR SN the other he recognized, he crouched down as not to be seen "fuck, why did it have to be him" Evan muttered under his breath he knew he had to get the attention of the Body guard so he light one of his Fused black powder bombs and threw it up in the air it exploded creating a load bang
 
*ga-DOOM!*
No one in the mansion could have ignored that explosion.
Seth ran over to the nearest window, and looked towards the rest of the smoke.
He looked around for a second.
Then.

"oh no. not him" Seth muttered to himself.
He unfroze the window and opened it.
Seth jumped out, and the robe flapped all around, as he landed on the moist grass.

"So. we meet again" Seth started with a smile.
"I take it you're the assassin" Seth assumed. as he readied himself
 
Evan was stood on the grass "So. we meet again" Seth started with a smile. "yes i guess we do" Evan replied "I take it you're the assassin" Seth assumed Evan grinned and looked to the floor as Seth readied himself "wow, you know why I'm here" Evan cracked his neck and slid on his white glove he then smiled and crouched down "No hard feelings but" Evan placed his hand on a transmutation circle and four pillars of earth leapt from the ground, these were intended to grab his arms and legs imobalizing him
 
Seth sighed as his hands, and lets where entangled.
"You this didn't work on me the last time, why would it now" Seth stated somewhat disappointed, as water came from the most soil, and froze the 'vines'
Seth moved, and they broke off, and fell to the grass as ice.

He waved his and over the grass. And water came out from the grass, and collected itself as puddles all around.
Seth ended up in a larger one.

"Should we get this started then" he grinned
 
Evan placed his right hand on the handle of his Katana, he looked as though he was thinking "I know I have gotten stronger but has he?" he then Looked up at Seth "I have a better Idea, How much are they paying you to protect this Guy?"
 
"500 shiney gold coins" he replied. as the water around him, started acting somewhat aggressive
