One day in Sina (Open. Warning for NPC Sexual Themes & Crudeness) part 1 of 3

Sebastian sighed as he popped his knuckles standing outside the local tailor he had been suited for a tuxedo for a local festival coming up called Le titzen lemo vi or a more simple term to celebrate still being alive. Sebastian stared straight ahead at the crowds of people hoarding by they didn't notice him at all, this was good. Sebastian walked head long towards the newest area build in Sina the swimming pool as they called it a big glass building that had tons of slides and pools in it. It had this one way out glass inside which was cool but other then that a normal swimming pool.


Sebastian hopped the fence that said it was closed opened the door and walked inside, he took his cowl off the top his head, removed his shirt, and then his shoes and socks. He took a deep breath then dived into the pool, he dove almost six feet before coming back up smiling his head off like a kid, "This is fun.." he said silently to himself hoping no one else came in.

"Le titzen lemo vi, eh? Aren't inner district guys amusing, having a festival just because they're alive."
Auth threw the pamphlet with the festival's name away, and gave off a smirk to the people who'd heard him, then left. He walked for a bit, only to realize just how big the crowd of people in front of him was. And how small the chances of him actually getting anywhere if he tried to go through it.

After a quick look around, Auth fought his way off to a rather shaded side alley, now blissfully empty. He grabbed a misplaced brick and jumped upwards, using the brick as ledge. A few more quick movements alongside some other bricks, a step upwards on a window grate and another jump from a second such grate, and he reached the rooftop. He made a quick check nobody decided to come after him or go running to the police, but it seemed he went unnoticed. All the better for him.

Up here, he took a seat on the roof and gazed off into the distance. He watched the long, long flow of people going... somewhere, probably... and then watched the silent houses, the clear blue sky, the birds. It wasn't very long before his eyes stopped on a shiny building made of... glass? it must have been now, since Auth was no stranger to the Inner District and it's surroundings, yet it was the first time he saw it. It looked interesting, to say the least. As he climbed back to his feet, he smiled to the building and the rather unorthodox route he just identified as being the shortest. Without hesitation, he proceeded to start climbing and jumping from building to building, heading steadily towards his destination.

Sebastian Sighed lightly as he swam it was peaceful no yelling no screaming nothing of the sort just peace and quiet, and the sound of the pool water hitting the side as Sebastian swam. Sebastian got out and sat down in a smaller pool which only came up to his bottom hand called a "Hot tub" which was just heated water with these pump things that shot bubbles.

After undertaking one last jump across the rooftops, Auth finally reached his target. It now turned out the glass building would somewhen soon become open to public as a swimming pool mini-complex. "Closed, eh? Well ain't that the best way to determine someone curious to enter..." thought Auth as he silently bypassed the fence. He'd better go about this as stealthily as possible, just in case some sort of official was in here.

Twenty paces later, he started hearing faint watery sounds. Bubbly, even. "Well, well, well... there seems to be one more curious individual in here besides me." A sly smile started to form on his lips, as a very interesting thought passed his mind. Continuing to slowly and silently move towards the sound, he soon came to see a half-naked man, happy and entirely detached from reality, sitting in a tub of some sort. "Time to give this guy a moment to remember".

Auth suddenly assume a battle-like stance, drawing out his flintlock from the trench coat and pointed it at the man in the tub. "Freeze!" he yelled. "Millitary Police. This area is currently off-limits. State your identity and business here!" he turned his facial traits into a stone-cold, professional-looking expression. Man, was this going to be fun...

Sebastian flinched and looked up he saw a Man standing in front of him he sighed lightly, "Really? out of all the times to get caught..." He stood got out and stretched, welp he might as well just tell the man what he was doing, "I was just enjoying the pool it may not be open but i never see anybody enter here so i thought why not just enjoy the time that i have. You see I'm from wall Rose, well i have a house here but it's farther south."

Sebastian sighed once again he didn't know how to go about this, Leave or stand up to the man, he choose to stand up to him. "Anyways I'm an official scouting legion member so that pretty much gives me some right to this place." He hopped his bluff would effect the man but he didn't have high hopes.

Severin looked up from his rifle when he heard a commotion coming from one of the pools. He stood up, and walked over. Severin saw a man pointing a gun at another man. "Hey!" He shouldered Flammende Gerechtigkeit. "This area is off limits! You there, drop the gun!" He stated. "You have five seonds before you become a fine pink mist!" He stepped forward, still aiming the rifle. He cocked the bolt to make sure it was loaded. It was. "And you, in the pool, hands up."

Sebastian turned and saw the other man he saw this as his chance to get away, he jumped and flipped backwards, he ran through the bushes and busted through the back door. His eyes started to dart around he had no where to go. He sighed and jumped towards another building climbing it slowly and charging forward upon the roof he wasn't gonna get caught back there.

Reia walked through the bustling streets of Hermiha District, wearing a bright red dress that she had pulled from the depths of her closet for this occasion. The festival was celebrating life, after all, and red was a very lively color. In hindsight, it wasn't the best decision on her part. Her dress was attracting a lot of unwanted attention. She had worn it with one specific person in mind, but he wasn't even here.

Reia pushed her way to the outskirts of the crowd so she could be alone. She wandered the streets until she found herself in front of the pool that she and her squad had visited a short time ago. However, it was dark and empty now, or so she thought. Reia suddenly heard voices yelling from inside. Interested, she picked the lock on the gate and went in to investigate.

When she saw who was in the pool, she smirked. "Well well, what have we here?"

Auth was just listening to the man explaining himself and thinking how boring it's going to turn out when he heard a voice crying "This area is off limits!" . And this time it wasn't his. maybe this was going to turn out interesting after all. In any case, his target suddenly darted away. Probably thinking of making a daring escape while he was occupied with the... garrison member, it looked like.

"Military police, off-duty, yet decided to check the area." Auth holstered the flintlock in one swift movement. "Lower your rifle" From the poolside, he now saw yet another figure peeking in. "This is turning out so much better than expected.", he thought.

"Garrison, keep our new guest occupied while I catch the other." Auth darted towards where his quarry ran off to. Soon he saw him on the rooftops. "Bad choice. I'm faster than you, you should have hid". Auth re-drew his gun, making sure the safety was still blocking the trigger, and started running. He was more used to this thing than his quarry, that much was obvious, and was starting to catch up. "Stop now and there might be no consequences" he shouted after the man.

Severin kept his rifle up and watched the man take off. "That guy?Military Police?"Severin started laughing. When he stopped, Severin turned to face the newcomer. "And who are you?"His smile vanished. "You 'Military Police ' as well?"He looked the woman up and down. "You don't look armed. what are you doing here?"He asked.

"You mean you don't recognize me, Severin?" Reia asked. She supposed she did look a little different than the last time they met. Her hair wasn't in its usual crown plait braid, and she was wearing a dress. Still, she was surprised that Severin didn't recognize her. Perhaps it was too dark for him to see her clearly.

Severin sighed. "Oh, it's you. Reia. What are doing here?" Severin lowered his rifle. "Nice dress, by the way." He said. "Something wrong?" Severin looked at Reia. He looked back at where the two men were. "Those two yours?" He chuckled. "Military Police.... Did he really expect me to believe that?" He looked up, wishing it wasn't so dark. "Why is it so dark in here? I thought they at least would have put a lantern or some candles in here."

"Sebastian is ours," Reia responded. "No idea about the other one. So what are you all doing here? Don't you know the pool closes at dusk?"

Cora was sitting at one of the tables at the festival. She just drank a bit of alcohol. Not much, but she wasn't really used to it.
She stood up and went away from the tables. Cora took a short walk around the area, when she came near the now closed pool she heard people talking inside.

Hey...wait...should we?
No it doesn't concern us, go away and don't interfere with them.

Cora nodded, good idea. Better not disturb them. She just wanted to continue her walk,
as she saw a girl, getting pinned to the wall by a boy. Seven of his comrades were standing around him.
"Hey...let her go!", she said quietly but loudly enough to let them now she was here.
"He just wants trouble!", someone said, coming at her and pointed a knife at her chest.
"I'm not as male as you think!", Cora said. He came closer and Cora could reek his smell of alcohol.
"Don't annoy me.", something inside Cora snapped. She grabbed his shoulders and rammed her knee inside his stomach, causing him to let out a small cry of pain.
"You...", he lifted his arm in order to hurt her with the knife. Cora was a bit too slow to block everything and her left arm got a cut from the wrist to the elbow.

I will never drink anything again, I'm getting too slow.

Before the boy could do anything else she kicked his head and ran away. The other ones after her.
She jumped over the wall of the swimming pool and landed safely. Cora stood up quickly turned around and saw one of the boys pointing at the wall.
Then she looked around and saw a whole group of people standing there.
A girl in a red dress, someone from the Stationary Guard, and someone else standing a bit behind the others.
"Oh...even more people...great!",she said quietly while she hid her injured arm behind her back. "Hello...guys..."

Sebastian growled lightly as he jumped to another building this guy wasn't letting up and he if he didn't stop following him Sebastian was gonna punch the dude in his mouth. He slid and fell downwards into an alley he was faster on the ground, he turned the corner and ran back towards the pool taking more side alley's along the way. If this dude didn't let up soon they were both gonna end up bleeding, Sebastian jumped the gate and ran back in side hiding in a bush it was pure shadow in the small trees and no one could see him unless they looked really hard.

Reia heard a commotion coming from behind her. She turned just in time to see a young girl leap over the wall. Some boys were running up to the other side, yelling and pointing at her. The girl mumbled a hello and tried to hide an injured arm behind her back. Reia took one look at the situation and sighed. "Did those boys hurt you?" she asked.

Severin cocked his rifle and walked over to the boys. "Alright, ladies! Who wants to eat some lead?" He looked at the young group. "Tch, tch, I almost pity you, with the amount of ass-whooping you are about to get." He chuckled. "So, who's first?" He looked at the scared look in their eyes.

Auth saw his quarry jump off and run into the side streets. "Ah well... I get it, I get it." he mumbled. "You hid. Fine." He stopped atop a rooftop. It started to not be worth the trouble to go after this guy anymore. "Just so you know, I ain't gonna play hide and seek with you" He spoke to the dark streets. "I'm going to return to that pool and then go grab a drink". Auth etched the ex-target's facial traits into memory, just in case he would need to recognize him later on.

He started making his way back to the pool. He was not in a hurry to meet mister trigger-happy garrison anyway. Still, that place seemed like it attracted trouble like a magnet. And that was not necessarily bad, either. "Only, you know, be careful not to get yourself shot in the face" he thought to himself.

And was he right about the place attracting trouble. It seemed that the commotion inside at least tripled since his last visit not so very long ago (with not-so-long meaning a matter of minutes). The sounds gave it away. He checked his flintlock, arranged his coat, assumed stern expression and started to walk towards the back entrance, hopefully without having his brains blown off...

Cora shook her head. It was nothing for her, so why bother anyone else with it, when it didn't hurt her. She lifted her arm a bit and looked at the cut, about 30 cm (for the americans one foot) long and had missed the atery about 1cm. She shook it quickly to get the still running blood of her arms and climbed up the wall.
"Look idiots, I got back-up!", she said with a big grin on her face. She took a seat on the wall and her legs dangeled of the edge. Next to her left arm a small puddle of blood was forming.
"Right, like he said, who wants to be the first to get his ass kicked?", one of them turned around and tried to sneak away. Cora pointed at him, "There, Sev...Mister Wildner! That one wants to be first!", she wasn't sure how to address him right.

//@nerdeity where are you from? The names you use are all german

Sebastian smirked and picked up a big rock as the man rounded the corner towards the back Entrance he chucked it at his head and hopped he hit, he hid knowing he didn't have long before he found out where the rock came from. Sebastian stretched slightly as he hid behind one of the drink stands he opened the door to the shack and went in closing it silently behind him where he hid in a closet where they held the drinks, oh lord he looked around the closet Liquor all around him, he downed one of them and smiled a bit of whiskey and Vodka mixed together delicious.

Watching the pack of boys chase after this girl brought Reia back to the night she ran away from the palace. It was a clear night with a full moon, very similar to this. Having successfully evaded the palace guards, she made her way to the Underground City, where she thought she was safe. Then a group of thugs attacked her. Reia had tried to defend herself, but it was one against six, and this was before anyone taught her how to fight. She didn't know what she would have done if Levi hadn't come along.

Reia watched as the girl took a seat on top of the wall and pointed out a victim for Severin. At least she didn't appear to be emotionally traumatized or anything. However, she had a large cut on her arm, and it was bleeding pretty badly. Reia grabbed a clean towel off of a rack and walked to the wall. "Let me see your arm," she said.

Auth was walking towards the back entrance when he noticed with a side glance that a rock was heading towards his head. He attempted to dodge, but the rock was faster and still got him around the forehead. Luckily, it wasn't enough to do any more than make him see black for a split second. Of course, blood was now slowly crawling from the shallow wound, but alas, his brains weren't blown off.

"Now why exactly do I get the impression it was the bathing survey corp...?" He wiped some of the blood off, then shrugged. "At least it wasn't Mr. Garrison with his rifle." He continued towards the back entrance. It was highly unlikely that whomever threw the stone was still there, and yet even unlikelier they will meet again in the three meters until he entered. So, he went inside.

"Oh boy." Auth thought. In front of him was a large group of... thugs? nah, drunk boys more like... a young girl standing on a wall with a flesh wound on her arm and a woman in a red dress trying to tend to her wound. Oh, and the garrison member who, of course, was still pointing his rifle at somebody. he could guess what exactly was happening here...

"Hey you, yeah, you with the ugly faces." He shouted towards the group to attract their attention from Mr. Garrison. Maybe he didn't realize it, but when the guys would break mentally and just suicidally attack, that rifle wasn't going to do stuff, given the distance and sheer amount of attackers. Time to get serious, fast. He grabbed his military police insignia (technically, it was his father's, but they all look the same anyway) from his pocket and help it in plain view. "Military police. On your knees and hands where I can see them. You're still not in too much trouble, just don't make this harder on yourselves."

Groups of people tended to dumb up the more people they had. Probably garrison and maybe the woman in red already saw through his bluff, but as far as options go, it was the best. "Hopefully they'll keep their mouth shut" he thought.

Cora shook her head and grinned.
"It's ok! I'm always ok, I had wounds worse than that.", as a prove she rolled up the sleeve of her right arm and showed the red lady the scars she had there, both her arms were covered in scars, there used to be more, but the older ones faded away. That was also one of the reason, she always wore long sleeves. Seeing the scars on her arms, was not that big of a problem, the problem were those on her back.
She looked at newcomer, who told the boys to get down. One laughed.
"The military police are cowards, you just joined them to be safe."

Coras voice was suddenly deeper and more quiet, the look on her face also changed, to a cold expression on her face.
"And you...what about you, you have lived in the inner walls all your life. He had three years of training to be able to get here.", she said calmly. Then jumped of the wall and came close to the boy, "So stop talking", her face was about 5cm away from the boy's face. He tried to get a knife out of his pocket, but she unarmed him in an instant and knocked him out by hitting the knife handle against his head. He fell on the ground.

Did I fucking tell you to take control, Nec?
No, I thought it would be better if I took control, you are drunk.
I'm slightly drunk, not completly drunk, just sitting there would have done the same! Give it back!

Her expression on her face turned from not visible to the one she had before.
She got back on the wall and whispered a small, "Sorry!", to the red lady. She looked on the ground. At least she had a knife now.

"Well, damn" Auth thought. He could deal with one drunkard that believed police are cowards, but now... His mind started dashing through the options available. A shooting would lead to disaster in terms for both sides. Trying to restrain them all would be much more trouble than the other people here realised. Fighting one or two of those would be no problem, but never underestimate what sheer numbers can do. Only one choice left: Intimidation into submission.

"Coward, eh...?" He pocketed the badge and popped his knuckles, making a satisfying crak. "How about we fight fairly then?" He grinned, putting his scary face on. "The three strongest of you against me, without any weapons." He grabbed his flintlock and threw it over to the woman in the red dress. "If any of the other try anything funny, this woman here and the guy with the rifle will open fire." He popped the knuckles on his other hand. "So, any volunteers?"

It was perfect, so long as his allies understood not to interfere. Three of the drunks already started moving forward, probably the most brave and stupid of them. Against three, it was going to be an easy fight, even if they broke the rules and used knives. And with three separated and one already down, even if they broke the rules, it would be easy work for the four of them to subdue the opposition. The only scenario in which they could lose was that when either of his allies acted on impulse. Auth entered battle stance. Soon, it was going to begin.

Severin sighed. "You aren't Military Police. That badge isn't yours. It's someone else's." He checked the bolt on Flammende Gerechtigkeit. Fully loaded. The bayonet was steadily affixed as well. "I don't care who you are, but you are putting your hands up as well." He honestly didn't care who this guy with the gun was. The drunks weren't going to listen, as more were already heading towards him. "Time for the universal solution." Severin shot a round into the air, and watched as the group looked at him. He pulled the bolt back, and the empty shell fell and clattered on the floor. Closing the bolt, he aimed at the men. "That didn't sound like it would sound too pleasant. Last one on the ground with their hands on their head gets a bullet in the leg." He watched as almost all of them immediately dropped, with the exception of the few who were going back to the man.
