Detchitoyo High School: Freshmen Year, Q. 1

[Festy_Dog]

"Ah, thank you, both of you. I was curious, because I represent one of several interested parties."

Thomas is quick in his reply.

"And what interested party do you represent in that case?" he asks, again paying careful attention to Robby's body language.

His trigger finger twitches.

 

[Lichtenhart]

J.K. likes to think the best of the people he mets. So when Robby asked that strange question, he thought that he was probably simply curious, and even if he wasn't, there was no harm in playing good cop to Kryptonite's bad cop. It's always come easy to him to seem not as smart as he is. People sees him and thinks he's some kind of animalistic retard, or at the very best a dumb jock. and it's easier to see how people really are when they think to be smarter than you.
Now that it looks like Robby had some reason to want to hang out with them, he sees no reason to drop his cards. He'll explain to Thomas and Krypto later.

"Really? There are people interested in what we did? Can they help us?"

 

[Festy_Dog]

"Really? There are people interested in what we did? Can they help us?"

Thomas sutbly takes a step out of Robby's view, then tries to meet Josh's gaze. He doesn't say anything or move his head, but his sapphire eyes seem to be looking for answers.

Robby "My organization has nothing to hide. I am a member of the Earth Friend club, a group of like minded students that want to protect the Earth and study it. Getting the chance to study a greater elemental's core does not occur often. On a side note, it is very strange that you mention a female controlling the elemental. We don't know of many female summoners powerful enough to bind an elemental that strong."

"Why are you being so inquisitive? He only asked a question."

Kryptonite says nothing, only scowling slightly.

Fool. Of course I'm being inquisitive. The question is - why is he being so inquisitive? Funny that you didn't question that... we have to watch ourselves.

Thomas
"My apologies if Kryptonite came across as harsh, but some of us feel caution should be shown extra attention while we still do not know who our enemy is,"

At this, Kryptonite only nods.

Apologize for me, will he... well, I suppose it's for the best. I should be concentrating on the events at hand, not on my thoughts. We need to deal with this one, and find out why he's here...

Robby
"My organization has nothing to hide. I am a member of the Earth Friend club, a group of like minded students that want to protect the Earth and study it. Getting the chance to study a greater elemental's core does not occur often. On a side note, it is very strange that you mention a female controlling the elemental. We don't know of many female summoners powerful enough to bind an elemental that strong."

"Hmm..." Kryptonite muses aloud. "Earth Friend club. Interesting."

I'll have to look into this club later on... if it really exists, there's going to be traces of it somewhere. And I'll find out if it does what he says it does... there is a chance that this whole thing is a fake, and I'm not going to fall for it if it is. Take no chances.

Kryptonite ponders for a small moment. "You say that you don't know of many female summoners... would you happen to know anything about the ones you're aware of? Where they live, their activities, things of that nature?"

Doesn't hurt to ask him about that... chances are that if someone sent him, they already know that we're looking for her... or him. Whatever.

 

[Zack2216]

Robby "Hmmm, the leader of the Earth Friend club is a summoner. However, he has had his elemental since he was young, and has trained and performed magic rites on it to bring it to it's current strength. He has only summoned and bound his one elemental though, and he occasionally summons other elementals and creatures from other planes. The leader of that all-girl witch club might be able to summon though. However, I don't 'keep tabs' on the activities of others."

 

[Festy_Dog]

Thomas' grip relaxes on his briefcase relaxes.

"It would appear you represent a group worth trusting somewhat. I wouldn't oppose having the leader of your club examine the crystal in that case," Thomas states simply.

If I'm taking too great a risk I assume Kryptonite will put me back in place.

 

[GnomeWorks]

"Assuming we were there to watch over it." Kryptonite says as Thomas finishes. "I don't think we're done with the heart yet."

Damn it, why is everyone so trusting? If this one was sent by the girl who summoned that thing, told him what to tell us... it could be one giant trap.

It might not turn out to be so. But until I have proof, I'm not going to believe one word this kid says. It's almost too coincidental...

 

[Kalanyr]

Lugh smiles as he listens to the debate followed by the agreement, for those who look there's something a little unsettling about that smile, it just seems a little off.

Please, Please be a trap, finding out who sent that thing will be far more interesting than listening to someone preach about the sanctity of this realm even as they trample all over it.

 

[Zack2216]

Robby "We appreciate your cooperation. I will get back to you tommorrow during lunch, and then we can talk about when we can meet. But this is assuming you will let us study it." Robby smiles, and begins to walk away. Christian on stage has started another song.
