::Iole follows just behind the others with that irresistibly adorable smile stretching across her face::
Good hell Vincent. We just came to say hi. After a few years, I thought you'd have mellowed out by now.

Sina looks at the rest of the group. "Ren, who are they?"
"That's Lillith, Kenny, Iole, etc. I recently joined in the team to find Autumn Harvester." Ren said. "Something wrong in Nibelheim?"
"Demons have been around. And you were supposed to be at my place the 6 days ago."

::Iole glares at the two of them::
Oh good. The butcher has a friend. Maybe now you can get him the hell out of here, and far away from us.

"You're in a bad mood," Sina said as she went to Iole. "What happened? Did Ren do something?"

::Iole smiles sarcastically at the newcomer::
Yeah, blind rage and sheer blood-lust tend to get people on my bad side. Why don't you ask him? I'd love to hear him justify it.

Ren took Sina away for a moment. "An assasin attacked Lillith last night. Oliver, Iole, and Eva went after the assasin. When we finally caught up to him. He put a corpse of a woman with her body ripped open when I attacked him. I understand that Iole would really react like that. She's still young."
"You wouldn't!" Sina said cupping her hand on her mouth. "So you killed a woman!"
"That's not it! He replaced himself with a woman's corpse!" Ren said grabbing her shoulders.

"I know its hard to believe but you have to trust me." Ren said sadly.
"I will try, but its really hard to believe it." Sina replied

But you didn't know that. You didn't know anything until you jumped into the air like a vulture to descend on your prey. Didn't give them a chance to speak, or anything. What if she had been alive? What if he hadn't replaced himself with a corpse and we had actually cornered him, and he had been ready to give himself up? I'll tell you what would have happened. You would have simply bared your fangs and moved in for the kill without a second thought.
::The fact that Sina seems disturbed by this revelation, and that she's able to hurt Ren with her words gives her more satisfaction than she'd care to admit. Maybe she was more like her Auntie than she had thought::

Ren had nothing else to do but to look down. He was guilty at all Iole's accusations. He couldn't get mad at Iole she was too innocent and young.
Sina looked at Ren. She slapped him. "You're not the Renilius I knew. You changed. Each Delivery you made made us too far apart from each other. Who are you?"

That's enough.
::Lillith comes between Sina and Ren, her green eyes suddenly hard and unmoving::
Look, that night emotions were running high adrenaline was off the charts. Ren did something impulsive and stupid. He's a boy. What do you expect? But after that he was willing to take some drastic measures in order to make up for it. I don't know him very well, but I know enough to say that if he had taken the time to think and get his emotions in check, he would have made a better decision. All he's really guilty of is poor judgment. But again, he's a boy. Lets face it, boys are dumb.
::Lillith suddenly picks up on something from Sina that she hadn't noticed until she was closer to the woman::
Ren, is this the friend you were talking about? The one who you said might be a sorceress?

::Lillith studies the girl intensely, like she's trying to see through her::
I'm definitely getting a vibe from her. You said illusions right? My guess would be something similar to what Echidna could do, only it feels a little more physical as opposed to putting thoughts in someone's head. Probably a variation of glamoring; bending the light around oneself in a certain way to make it appear as something else. Very talented magic users are able to do this to change their appearance. But it feels like her magic is kind of... underdeveloped. She doesn't feel like she's experimented with it too much. There are girls at my school that could best her.

::Eva landed next to Iole as she looked up at Vincent with a smile::
"Its been a while Vincent. Its good to see your fine and well."
::She looked up and waved at Nahla before looking back towards Iole with her hands on her hips::
"What did I just get done telling you earlier Iole...*sigh*"
I guess it can't be helped but Iole remember just relax ok? We all need to get through this and its not a good idea to push your "allies" away.

"Oh, thanks the gods." Sighs Vincent. "Someone that knows her, good, now take her away!"
"Why so jumpy, Vincent!?" Asks Nahla, "They are our friends."
"Friends or not, behind them follows an evil god, Jenova, cults, deranged sorceresses, armies... with demons." Scorns Vincent, still using Tresk as a body shield. "Not going to have a part of it this time, I can see it their eyes, you want to ask something, something that will require my ship and inturn involve me. I can't do it, can't. Already on ant-acids, my insides are a wreck with stress."

"Oh!?" Vincent's replies, his eyebrows raised in a curious manner. "Then what is it..? As I already told the cops, I don't know anything about the murder on the docks last night, so can't help you there."
The dazed Tresk finally shakes his senses back. "Ugh... Captain... why... are you using me as a shield?" Tresk steps away and looks at Vincent curiously. "You alright?"
Vincent stands quickly upright to shows a hint at professional bearing in himself. "Uh, just making sure you didn't fall, Ensign. If you are alright now, carry on!"
"Rightttt, ok have fun." Tresk does a sloppy salute and walks off.
"OK, so what is it?" Vincent asks, crossing his arms.

::Lillith considers her words carefully::
Actually, a couple of us were thinking of getting out of the city for awhile. The police seem to have things well in hand, and I haven't exactly told the Garden when I'll be back, so I thought I'd just take a little extended vacation. Somewhere rural and quiet you know? Like Dali. And I really do hate trains. And we haven't seen you in such a long time. I was thinking... if it wasn't too much trouble...

"Ahah!" Vincent yells, pointing at Lillith. "Knew it! Want me to do something! Well." Crosses his arms again. "I'm afraid the ship is out of commission for the time being, she's not going anywhere for at least another week."
"What about Sergei's ship!?" Yells Nahla.
Vincent smacks his head in frustration. "Yes... fine... Sergei's ship." He sighs. "My weapon's supplier has a vessel, he may still be in port. Bastard owes me a few favors... hmm what's the date?" Suddenly Vincent points to a young ragamuffin child, wearing an ivy cap and dressed like a street urchin who appears to be working as a longshoreman, the beauty of no child labor laws.. "You there, boy, what day is it!?"
The confused and incredibly awkward boy turns sheepishly. "Today? Why it's C-" "Quiet! Run over to dock two and find a man named Sergei, tell him Vincent's calling in another favor. Hurry now."
The boy scurries off down the air-docks.
"So...?" Vincent asks. "Not that I'm trying too sound as if I want to know but, what trouble are you all in this time? And who is the kid?" Vincent asks, pointing over his shoulder with his thumb at Oliver who is staring up in awe at the Hijrah.

::Lillith sighs::
His name's Oliver, and I'm afraid he lost his mother to the Harvester. I guess there's no point in denying that we are still tracking him. But something's come up and a few of us have to get out of the city while some of the others stay behind.

Come on Captain. You're not even a little happy to see us? At least me? You've got to be happy to see me. How can you not? I'm adorable.
