Delayed Arrival

[stringmods]

Who: Anyone
Where: The tail end of Aquarius
When: The 15th of January
Summary: Some people like to make a dramatic re-entry. Kandori and Q rearrive in ~style~
Warnings: Danger?

After the Coming of Age celebration, the city was quiet for the next two days...at least until the 13th Hour. As the clocks stopped working, the night sky suddenly lit up as bright as day - onlookers gaped and townspeople screamed in terror as a large object, the source of the light, streaked across the sky, leaving a trail behind.

Those out patrolling could have easily followed its path as it flew close to most buildings before disappearing and slamming into the barrier on the Aquarius sector. A loud sound echoed through most of the city, sounding like a bomb had gone off. For all the populace knew, that was exactly what had just happened. Thankfully, the barrier stood.

Then all was quiet again, save for the whispers and murmurs of the townspeople. No one would dare to venture closer to source of the panic, especially so far away from the central town and so close to a hub of demon activity.

...Or, at least, until the Visitors were all contacted and politely asked (more likely begged) to go see what was happening while the police continued to maintain status quo. They had a feeling that whatever had happened, the crash site would be heavily guarded.

Time to gather and go see what has happened exactly...

Ruri sighed at the request, and started out to the impact site, walking along with the look of a technician who just had an executive request dumped on their lap while they were in the middle of doing something tedious but requiring a lot of concentration. Taking some of the ships sensor equipment with her she set out to look where the thing landed.

"Fine fine. I'll go look."

[stringmods]

It wouldn't take long for her to come across a few demons. The fact that this area had been untouched the last few months have made them much bolder than usual, and the gigantic snake and minotaur walked close to her, the latter cracking its neck.

"Aren't you a little too far from your territory, little human?"

[electricyousei]

Ruri looks over, but not with much urgency and shrugs. She's covered by the Nadesico and most demons are somewhat reasonable.

"Actually, I tend to find 'my territory' to be louder and phonier. That and if you look at the large metal ship over there it has me covered at 30 meters with several weapons. That being said though, if I'm in your space I'll gladly move along, or if you'd like a can of coffee, I'd be happy to share."

[stringmods]

The two creatures looked at each other, evaluating their possibilities.

"She reminds me of Alice."

Eventually they walk back to her.

"Coffee would be nice."

[electricyousei]

She nods and reaches into her pack, pulling out and offering a warm can of coffee to each of them.

"Enjoy then. If there's anything else I can get for you or your friends feel free to ask. I can't guarantee I'll have it right away, but since this is your territory it is best to be a good guest."

With that she bows to them slightly.

[stringmods]

They both smell the cans slowly.

"Ahhh this doesn't smell to bad actually."

You know, offering them presents after threatening them? This girl held some hope.

"Alright, whatda you want from us anyway."

[electricyousei]

She peers at them, still deadpan as ever.

"Something bounced off the barrier, drove the city half insane, and is a mystery. I'm just seeing if it is something that will give me a headache. I don't really care beyond that. You haven't seen it, have you?"

[stringmods]

"Oh the bright and flashy thing? We don't know what happened, but two soft humans came out of it!"

One monster was already eating the coffee, can and all.

"Noisy humans too. Not good for health. Prefer 'em younger."

[electricyousei]

She peered over at the demons and nodded, "Would you like me to get them out of your territory then, so you can go back to the quiet?"
