(Setting) Abandoned apartment rooftop, Old Town district.
| >The district was abandoned years ago as a central hub for transportation from one end of the city to the other before the construction of the Light Highway, which quite literally covered the district in blue hard light and blocked out the sun, rain and weather.
>Add to that the bad air quality from vehicle emissions and the occasional car falling through the highway and crashing through the district, sometimes killing people or smashing buildings...Nobody wanted to be here.
| >So much of the district was abandoned that the city council actually stopped maintaining the area decades ago. No modern cameras, no modern updated power grids, and nothing but a collection of all of the old junk the city used to run on. No GCPD go here if they're smart unless they have to, and the majority of the district is abandoned. The only notable non-abandoned places are at the edges of the district, just past the borders of other districts like Central or Glitz.
| >So, what were we doing here, on a rooftop of an old abandoned apartment building just underneath the highway? Well, the district is good for one thing: meeting up when you don't want anybody around.
>And Fuschia Fedora knew this well, as she parked her black and fuschia levibike on this very rooftop, dressed in her fuschia colored White Knight armor from the Ulfhednar division, with a new, fresh crack in her visor underneath the shadow of her signature fuschia fedora.
| >She waited for a certain somebody to show up, somebody that she believed could help her with solving the case of the insane child murderers.
| >A really tired and exhaust looking man passes the fire door of the rooftop. He is wearing a long black coat and around his neck hang some ski glasses.
>As he goes he is busy to put out some Cigarettes and a lighter, thats why he doesn't see the White Knight.
>After he manages to light his Cigarette he stopps at the opposite direction of the rooftop were the Knight is, sits down, and beginn smokeing.

(Am i even allowed to be here. I read now that this is a setting hosted because of another thread?)

(Technically, you are allowed, but intruding might be considered bad manners by some. Then again, if OP wanted it strictly private, they should have said so in the thread title. Plus, a big part of RPing here is being able to improvise and stay flexible. That said, you don't want to be *too* disruptive. Just my two cents.)
| (Will write post soon. Though, FAL might shoot you if you eavesdrop. -FAL)
| >Before entering the scene, FAL scanned the entire building with both his augmented eyes. First he spotted FF, no doubt about it with all her gear, then he saw another person, a man with a cigarette on the same rooftop.
"So she brought company?"
>FAL put a magazine in his M1911 pistol and pulled the slide back. He then made his way up to the top of the apartment building and walked to FF, making sure to stay 20 feet away from her.
| "Fuchsia Fedora was it? Before I talk, who the fuck is that over there."
>FAL pointed to the man with a cigarette, ready to shoot.
| >>276404
>After the man finished his last cigarette, he stand up turn around and then he freezes in his movements, because a gun pointing at him.
"Äh hi, can i help you, or will you kill me definitely?"
>you now can see that in his left hand he carry a modern suitcases which your eyes can't scan. It must be a case for security purposes.
| >>276498
(Sorry for the confusion, FAL is pointing at him with his fingers. Also, FAL's eyes can see through anything that isn't very dense, so unless your suitcase is made out of lead or any other materials with higher density, he can probably see through it.)
| As i said he can't see through it. The suitcase is also bullet proof. It was used to carry prototypes of Cyberaugmentations. My char worked in a branch were Augmentations for security purposes were build. That is also why this Handmove is common for him)
| >>276540
(oh that was supposed to be OOC, but if your char have these eyes than let me describe my char with more informations.)
| >>276404
>>276498
>But except for the suitcase FAL can see that the long black coat he waers is stab proof, also near his hip is a electroshocker, in his neck is an older Neurolinker which is modified, Unaugmented use that device to connect with machines. And the Skiglasses around his neck seems to be technical, it looks selfmade.
|
| >FF turned to the new person on the scene.
"I'm gonna be honest, for a second I thought he was you. I was just waiting for him-you-to speak up."
>She looks to the man wearing a suitcase.
"In all seriousness, I have no idea who that is. I didn't bring him here."
>She glances again at FAL before looking back to the other man.
"So, who are you and why *are* you here, if I may? I sorta use this spot as a private meeting place...Do you use it for that as well?"
| "Whoever the fuck he is he needs to get out."
>FAL unholsters his pistol and points at the man's head.
"One minute. Jump off this rooftop, or leave. If you don't, then I'll do it for you."
| >>277240
"Tss... i only wanna relax here a little bit from a hard workday..."
>Then he goes with fast step to the fire exit. As he passes you you can hear he says
"I start to hate this Fucking City"
| "Now then..."
>FAL said, still with the pistol out.
"Let's get down to business."
| >>277666
"You didn't need to go all cowboy ranger on him. He had as much a right to be here as we did, if we wanted privacy we could have simply asked. Not every problem can be solved with a gun, otherwise I'd be a murderer and not a sentai hero."
>Fuschia Fedora sighed grimly as she looked to the fire exit.
"Still, glad we have the privacy, though I don't approve your methods."
>She turned to face FAL.
"What are we here for, FAL?"
| "This is how it's like when you're an ex gang member."
>FAL said, holstering his pistol.
"Two things, Seven, and White Thong."
>FAL scanned the area around him with his eyes.
"This is about protecting Seven. I'd like to answer your questions first before I go on."
| >Two rooftop far away a man in a long coat with a suitcase could be seen. He is sitting down and smoking a Cigarette while he leans on the railing.
| "White Thong is out of this discussion. That's exclusively Wardrobe business. That's my business."
>Fuschia replied firmly.
"But I am happy you're here to talk about Seven. My top priority is the safety of this city, so clearly I do not wish to bring harm to anybody who isn't to blame for the child murder incident. However, I'm not fully sure I understand the nature of Seven's affiliation with those named 'Double' and 'Nine'. How is she related to those two, for starters?"
| "Double is a temporary hired operative of the gang. Every temporary member is called Double followed by a number. I'm known as Double Eighteen in their gang."
>FAL took notice of the man two rooftops away.
"And Nine... I know Nine personally. She's another victim, just like Seven."
>FAL paused.
"I don't think you get why I mentioned White Thong. Imagine a nine year old girl with fox ears getting torched by that bitch. Remember, she can't die."
| "And that's my second question. What do you mean 'she can't die'? Everybody can die, it is just a matter of what it takes to kill them. What special abilities does Seven have?"
>She also noticed the other man on the rooftop, but she didn't want to make that known so she didn't give him any attention.
"And if Nine is a victim, why did she defend and help Double when he was killing that child? She's still guilty of that."
| "I'll answer your questions about Nine some other time. This is about Seven."
>FAL said, then looked off into the distance.
"She regenerates after a fatal wound. She feels the full pain of dying, but comes back to life, and she's only nine years old."
| "That's quite remarkable,amd cruel...and almost unbelievable."
>FF gave a steely gaze to FAL.
"Is she some sort of mutant, or human experiment? And if so, who are the people who experimented on her? Is that her 'Boss'? Because I also would like to know as much as I can about whoever that person is too, since frankly they seem to have manipulated Seven into a sort of stockholm syndrome. She adores her boss even though he controls an internal kill switch to keep her in line, right?"
| "I don't know how she can regenerate, but I've seen her get shot in the head before with a hollowpoint round... It blew off her head completely, yet she regenerated it fully, as if she wasn't hurt at all."
>FAL said.
"Now... About White Thong. Now that you know about Seven's power, what do you think White Thong will do to her if she goes after their gang?"
| >>279312
"White Thong won't go after their gang of killers. I'm going to put a stop to her before that ever happens. As a matter of fact, talking with you now is taking precious time away from me doing that. I'm not here to talk about if a killer goes after a gang of killers. I'm here to talk about how to catch the gang of killers that Seven is affiliated with. So unless you have information on how I can bring Double and Nine into custody, I have more important things to do."
| "I never wanted to bring Seven harm. She seems as if she is simply a victim caught up in the activities of Double, Nine, that Boss figure and potentially even you. So instead of trying to make it out as if White Thong is the immediate danger to Seven's safety, let's talk about the people who actually tried to kill her and have placed an internal killswitch inside of her to prevent her from telling me the truth, since they seem to be more of a threat to her, right?"
>FF retorts.
| "You're dead wrong there. The leader of the gang doesn't kill permanent operatives, that's my job."
>FAL said, pulling out his phone.
"Regardless, I still want that bastard dead. Ever heard of the Aces gang? I thought you would've recognized ONE, the white eyed man on that livestream."
>He showed FF a picture of ONE. He was a man with a large scar over his face and a pair of white eyes.
"And... Don't even think about going after Nine."
(1/2)
| "Nine is fast enough to kill me before I can blink. My eyes can't even keep up with her."
>FAL put his phone away.
"If you're thinking about catching them, you're not going to be able to. The most you could do is help me kill ONE, or let me help you kill White Thong."
(2/2)
| "I thought I made myself clear. White Thong is internal Wardrobe business. That's for a Wardrober to handle, not anybody else."
>FF was firm on her stance of this.
"Besides, I don't know why you're worried about her in particular. The city is filled to the brim with psychopaths, genocidal maniacs and serial killers, and yet you're worried about this one? Seven is in danger just by being here, we all are. That's why the Justice Wardrobe does what it does, to make the city safer."
| "White Thong isn't special, nor is she any more dangerous than any other murderer in the city. The only thing that makes her stand out is that she went after the wrong hero, and now she'll have to face justice for that, from a Wardrober. But that has nothing to do with you, Seven or any of your other gang members. End of story."
>FF clearly wasn't going to budge on this stance.
"Again, your gang seems to me to be more of a danger to Seven than anything else."
| "I will go after Nine and Double, as well as anybody else affiliated in this psychopathic child murdering spree. From what I understand, it was supposed to be Seven who died on that livestream, wasn't it? The only reason she didn't is because she can come back. Killing her wasn't *fun* enough for those two."
>FF continued pushing the subject.
"So if you want to protect Seven, as it seems like you do, why haven't you gone after Double and Nine yourself yet?"
| "Because Double is a skilled decker who I can't locate, and Nine is another victim that I want to save just as much Seven."
>FAL walked closer to the edge of the rooftop.
"Seven was the first victim two years ago, when she was seven years old. The reason she didn't die was because of ONE, and me."
>A noise came from his pocket, he pulled out a flip phone and answered the call.
"I'll be there in an hour."
(1/2)
| "If your decker skills are up to par with Double's, I'd gladly help you find him. But I'm not sure about your marksman skills. How good are they?"
>FAL asked, pulling out his rifle and putting a magazine in it. He didn't pull back the slide yet.

| "What would I need marksman skills for? I'm not planning on killing anybody unless I have to. That's not how I do things."
>Fuschia Fedora shifts a little as she stands.
"My decker skills are more than sufficient, but if you plan on killing these people then I'm going to have to find them myself. I don't kill unless absolutely necessary. I can take these people down myself."
(Sorry for the wait, I've been having irl issues ;-;)
| >He smirks.
"I get it, so you're a shit shot."
>FAL pulls out a flip phone, then passes it to FF.
"See what you can get out of this. It belonged to Double."
>FAL pulls the slide back from his rifle then goes to the exit.
"Good luck with Double. Though, do me a favor and tell me if you find him."
>FAL leaves the building.
| (Hey, so I'm going to be taking a vacation until the 28th ;-; I'm sorry and I will be back!

| >The whirring blue color and the infinitely loud sound of rushing cars could be heard for miles. The Light Highway, one of the greatest constructions of Glitch City, a road that covered the length of an entire city district and allowed anybody to get anywhere at anytime. It was a phenominal sight for sure, a symbol of the technological age.
>However, its existence lead to some side effects.
