    Amber couldn't help but look around the bustling, overwhelming city like a tourist. It had been years - she'd forgotten exactly how many, as living underground made the passing of time somewhat trivial - since the last time she'd set foot in the stronghold and headquarters of the Magic Council and their pet Rune Knights. Once, this place had been her home. Now, she barely had a home. The closest thing she had to a home, a family, was Errings Rising, but previous experience made her wary of such things, so she kept her distance. She never wanted to be betrayed again.

    The lioness had never expected to return to Era, which was of course packed to the brim with those that had once been her friends and family and now held only her enemies. In this city, you could hardly swing a cat without hitting a Rune Knight or other nosy do-gooder, none of which would hesitate to arrest her on sight and imprison her - or worse - on trumped up charges. Treason, murder, thievery, aiding and abetting criminals... Actually, now that she thought about it, most of those were true now. They hadn't been, when she'd been forced out of the Rune Knights. All the better that she wore a disguise in this, the city of her enemies. Her heritage made it possible to change her appearance, and she had done so well before she'd approached Era. Gone were her lion-like ears and tail, her most distinguishing features. Gone too was her Errings Rising mark, which marked her clearly as a traitor and a dark wizard. The scar that had crossed her Rune Knight tattoo had been replaced by smooth, unbroken flesh. Her hair was black instead of gold, and her eyes had changed to green. Her figure had slimmed from buxom to petite, and she'd lost a fair bit of height. She would be entirely unrecognizable to anyone who'd known her in her previous life.

    As she strolled through the city, which she'd come to ostensibly to gather information for the guild but had really just wanted see again, she noted a pair walking the other direction. The male was tall and burly, and seemed to be muttering to himself. Maybe he was a bit touched in the head? The girl, however, was what drew Amber's attention. Just about of a height with Amber in this guise, she had long black hair that flowed down her back, framed an achingly-sweet face and baby-blue eyes, and was pinned on the left side with two gold barrettes. The lady trailed along after the male, a vaguely exasperated expression in her eyes, though it seemed to be tempered by affection.

    As Amber watched, the pair stopped, conferred for a few moments, and then split off from each other, the female heading inside a building while the male went to wait, sitting on the edge of a well. A great opportunity. With a slight smirk, the lioness moved in closer. Her senses told her there was a decent amount of water at the bottom of the well, enough to make a fall survivable. Perfect. Even better, there was no one around to witness what was about to happen. Drawing upon her magic, she scuffed her foot on the cobbles, sending a precise, focused ripple through the earth below. It would catch the male under the feet in a sharp wave, pitching him up and over the rim of the well, into the depths below. There was a faint splash a few moments later, and Amber's senses detected faint vibrations at the bottom. He'd survived. Excellent.

    With that taken care of, Amber took up a position nearby, leaning against the wall of the building the female had entered, waiting for her to exit. Her hands idly fiddled with a rounded sliver of rock, dark on one side and light on the other, shot with speckles of quartz and flecks of bright yellow citrine. She'd picked it up on the way to Era, and thought it would be a fine addition to her collection back at the guild hall.

    The siblings were still getting used to the hustle and bustle of Rune Knight life. Lots of paperwork initially, most of it on Tony's part for having to see about getting his detective firm officially approved as a subsidiary in the Rune Knights. At least, that's what Tony convinced himself of. The two were just taking an off day, wandering the streets of their hometown, Britney primarily looking for some more out of the way stores she thoroughly enjoyed. Of course, as they went through the shopping trip, Britney gave most of the bags to Tony, who was more than willing to help carry them. She had quick run off in order to take a bathroom break, leaving Tony resting against a well he once had dropped one of his rubber ducks into.

    "And thus, Tony returned to the nemesis of a bygone era," he began muttering, setting the shopping bags aside and leaning back against the well. "Of course, he long had been used to this sort of thing. Years had passed since his most recent encounter with this foe. A deep well, one in a small clearing between buildings that had a small park around it. Tony knew that this was a wonderful place to relax and assess his notes. He knew his sister also enjoyed frequenting this park, knowing just how peaceful an area it was, what with Old Man Cody's cafe in the near distance." He thought he sensed something strange from the black haired woman wandering nearby, but thought little of it. "Of course, Old Man Cody had been dead some two years at this point, Tony lamented. It was always a wonderful ambiance within the run down cafe that now had been turned into a donut shop. The donut shop was good, he had to admit it, they were experts at glazed donuts in particular, which Tony admitted a weakness to, but it was no Cody's cafe."

    As he was lost in his musings, he found himself tumbling into the well, splashing at the bottom. He kept himself calm, only screaming a little bit, before looking around and assessing the situation. "It appeared as though Tony was now in trouble."

    Britney left the shop, a fairly large store of Le Boutique Seudisant, admittedly enjoying some of the clothing the place had, though not envying the price tag. She looked around a bit, noticing a bunch of familiar faces from her childhood and the part few years of college, as well as a few unfamiliar folk, but none were the too familiar face of Tony. She knew that Hyberion Park was nearby, so she figured he would have been there, making her way off towards the familiar resting spot of the Altarias.

    "Too deep to jump, he knew," Tony's monologue continued. "He could wade on the water for some time, and calling for help would likely yield results quickly. Whether by any of the upstanding citizens of Era, passing Knights, or his own sister, Tony had nothing to worry about. Of course, he still wanted to escape from this stone tomb he had been placed into, water about..." he looked down. "Some fifteen feet deep. Or so. He was not entirely sure."

    Britney went to the park, seeing no one around. "Tony?" she asked, a bit of worry in her voice, not hearing his calls from the well yet. She looked around, a noticeable urgency in her examination, but certainly nothing that would mark panic as she tried to find her elder, incredibly clumsy brother.

    Amber grimaced in annoyance as her sensitive ears picked up the sound of the male's muttering, echoing up from the well. With a sigh, she shifted her foot on the ground, manipulating the earth as subtly as she could. She opened gaps in the bottom of the well, allowing water to drain from it, enough that she could feel the male's feet hit the ground. She closed the gaps then, leaving him roughly waist-deep in water. She then closed the well over his head, leaving enough gaps in it for him to breathe but hopefully muffle his mutters and cries for help. The well was deep enough to be entirely dark at the bottom, so a cursory glance wouldn't reveal anything. A light shone down would, of course, show that there was no water in the well, and it was shallower than it should be.

    With that, she stepped up to the side of the female, putting on a slightly confused and concerned expression. "Hey, you look worried. What's wrong?" she asked, injecting well-meaning concern into her voice, which was lighter and more breathy than her usual husky tones.

    Tony soon found himself sinking further into the water. Wait, that was not quite right. Tony was not sinking, the water was receding. Soon enough, he was able to stand in the midst of the water as the well closed up above him. He crossed his arms, deep in thought. This certainly was a predicament. He could see light, which at least meant that he could breathe, but it would still serve to restrict his ability to call for help. The new rocky ceiling above his head was going to be too thick and he was too deep to be able to call from down there and it be heard up above. "Knowing this was his only chance," he confidently muttered to himself, "He decided to climb to the apex of his new tomb, hoping for assistance, as he was already getting slightly hungry and the well water had made his backup reserves of fruit snacks soggy. If he could escape, he had a burger that he had set near his sister's things, and he hoped he could get to that."

    Britney jumped a bit as a light voice called out to her. "S-sorry, didn't see you there," Britney told the black haired girl as she turned to see her. "I suppose it can't hurt to at least talk to someone about this. My brother was supposed to be waiting for me and I don't know where-" She cut herself off as she saw their things and rushed over to the well to see it mostly closed up. "Dammit, they must be working on some of the routing from the well to the rest of Era. It wouldn't surprise me if Tony fell in there..." She sighed. "Anyways, usually my brother doesn't wander off like this but if he's not here..." She put a hand on her chin, thinking of what to do.

    Unfortunately, Tony would find that the new rocky ceiling of the well was just a few feet above his head when he was standing on the bottom. It was also quite thick, the airholes taking weird paths through the stone in order to attenuate the sound waves from below. He would have a hard time escaping without resorting to magic of some sort, which Amber would likely detect.

    "Your brother... Would you mind describing him for me? I may have seen him around." said the lioness, cocking her head slightly. She continued to affect a concerned and helpful demeanor, inwardly smirking. This girl was gorgeous up close. Any amount of time the lioness could spend with her was time well spent.

    Britney almost felt as if something was off about this girl, but there were no grounds for accusations. At a time like this, she just needed help. "Same hair color as me, maybe a little bit of a dark brown. Little over six feet tall, fairly stocky, usually wearing a really raggedly old light green duster." She sighed. "You'd know if you've seen him because he'd be talking to himself. It's... a bit embarassing, honestly." She rubbed the back of her head. "Anyways, it's not like him to just wander off, so I'm suspecting that there might be some foul play. I doubt he's dead, he always manages to bull crap some way out of situations like that, but I don't see signs of a struggle." She began looking around, seeing if there was any clues as to her brother's location. "I'm guessing you don't know when the well was closed off for maintenance?" she absently asked the air as she crouched down and looked around.

    Amber gave a little frown of confused consternation. "I don't really remember seeing him.. He sounds pretty distinctive. Especially with that... Habit." She said. "As for the well... I don't know. I don't actually live here, I'm just visiting. It's my first time here." That was both truth and lie, mixed together in roughly equal parts. With Amber's shapeshifting to help control her autonomic reactions, it should pass inspection, even to trained truthfinders. She'd always been good at lying, and after coming into her heritage she only got better.

    Britney gave a bit of an undignified snort at the comment on him being distinct. "You're definitely right about him being distinctive with his habit. He's had it forever and it's... well, to say that it's not the best for his social life is certainly true." She shrugged. "Well, I doubt he's in the park, so I suppose it might be for the best if we go and look out for him elsewhere?" Her voice went into a mutter. "Though I suppose if I need to, I can always do that..." She brushed it aside, going to pick up her things that Tony inexplicably left behind. She still did not trust this situation at all. Something was fishy. The only lead Britney had right now was this woman, so she had to go with it. "Sorry to ask, but is it alright if you help me carry some of these things? Tony had been carrying them for me, but if he's missing... well, I already spent the money on this, and it's just bad investment to leave it lying around, huh?" She chuckled at her own horrible excuse for a joke. "And if nothing else, I can at least drop this off at home and then go file a report with the Knights." As she grabbed a decent amount of stuff, she offered a hand to the woman. "Britney Altaria. Oh, and we're looking for Tony Altaria. Just in case that's something you might want to know."

    Tony had managed to worm himself up to the top of the well, loading up his archive magic to see what the best way to bust through this was. He certainly was not comfortable, barely clinging to the cobbled rocks on the edge of the well with one hand as his other fiddled with his archive to see if he could get some sort of way out.

    "It was at this time," Tony still monologued despite being incredibly strained. "that Tony knew that he could break through. If the ceiling could be broken, he could call for help, as he knew that he would not be able to fully climb out of the well with his current physical state. Now that he knew how to maneuver his way around the inside of the well, the detective knew that he had to make small increments to get out of here. Just as his mother always said, 'life is a marathon, not a sprint.' Tony had to be cautious with how he went through this. Everything here reeked of foul play, yet Tony hadn't the evidence of present. He would have to bring his camera back from home to detect if there were signs of magic usage and if he could find the source. Admittedly, he did not actually know if that was something his camera could do, but he would certainly try."

    As he talked, he typed away at the keyboard of his archive, hoping to burst through the thick rocky ceiling of the well.

    "Of course, let me help." Amber said, grabbing a few of the bags she felt she could justifiably carry. With her magic and her heritage, she was stronger than she had any right to be, especially in this form, so she had to be somewhat careful.

    Feeling the male climbing up the side of the well, she irritatedly scuffed her foot on the ground, sending a ripple through the earth similar to the one that had knocked him down the well in the first place. This would barely be detectable through magical or technological means, but would serve to knock Tony's hand loose and pitch him back down into the well. It would then smooth out the sides of the well, making it nigh impossible to climb.

    With her hands full, Amber didn't try to shake the woman's hand. "Kenna Brown." she said by way of introduction. It was a pseudonym she'd used a few times before, but it was a common enough name to not arouse suspicion even if it was associated with her. She'd always thought it was rather clever, as the color amber was 'kinda brown'.

    Kenna looked a bit embarrassed by the woman's full hands. "Right, probably a few too many bags for a handshake, I guess, Kenna." She thought she had felt a small shift in the ground, but it was not enough to confirm. If her hunch was right, then getting Kenna away from the well and unable to tell if Tony was down there would be ideal. Of course, she had no idea as to what the very nature of this woman was, nor what her intents for Tony were. "Probably don't want to worry my parents by not showing up with Tony, so we'll drop off my bags at a point where the two of us always used to hide things." Britney then turned on her heels and began walking, hoping her plan could work.

    Tony was mere moments away from Archive breaking through the ceiling when a rumble dislodged his hand and he went crashing into the water. Soon enough, the cobbled rocks on the inner workings of the well had gone smooth, a sheer cliff, "...smooth as silk. Tony was never sure of the origins of that phrase. Britney, his sister, had some experience in sewing, but Tony was never one for that. Was silk smooth? Was it just a strange idiom? The detective was unsure of the logistics of silk's smoothness, but he had begun a hypothesis in his head. Whoever had trapped him down here had no intentions of killing him, that much he figured. If they did, they likely would have already done so. No, this was a means for kidnapping. Tony at this point had little in terms of a motive for why he would be trapped down here, but he had enough information to make a working hypothesis. Pacing around at the bottom of the well, munching on his fruit snacks, he began to explain his hypothesis. Whoever it was after him, they had something they wanted from him. It was likely not his wares, and it certainly was not his life. Tony had done little in order to draw the ire of potential ne'er do wells, but he could not count this out. The motive was all so strange. But the methods were as clear as the sunny day he and his family had gone on some few days after their employment with the Rune Knights. There was an earth mage. They had some way of sensing his presence down there, possibly of hearing him as well. In addition, they were an earth mage that, critically, had no intentions of killing him." He put his hand against his chin, leaning back against the inside of the wall and seeing if he could figure anything out, knowing that his sister was fine.

    "Sure thing." Amber said, smirking a little to herself as she felt Tony splash back down into the bottom of the well. He'd certainly have a hard time getting out now. After all this was over, she would have to come back and refill the well from the nearby aquifer. She didn't want any of the townspeople, associated with her enemies as they may be, to go thirsty just because she wanted to mess with a guy and her sister.

    "Lead the way, and I'll follow." she said, hoisting the bags up over her shoulders and following along behind Britney. The further away from the well they got, the less control she had over what lay at the bottom of the well, and the less she could even feel it. For a moment, she wondered if that had somehow been Britney's plan; to lure her away from the well, thus giving Tony the opportunity he needed to escape. But she shrugged it away. This Britney didn't seem to be shrewd enough to even know what she'd done with her brother, let alone figure out who'd done it and how, and concoct a plan to deal with it in such a short amount of time.

    "So, you're just visiting Era? What for?" Britney asked. She needed to make sure that she did not seem suspicious to this woman who she herself was suspicious of. "Sorry, I'm just a bit curious. Not exactly a great tourist destination, unless you're a fan of the police in which case... that's fine, I guess. I mean, Tony's been super into the Knights since as far as I can remember." She kept her pace slow. Being in a rush could lead Kenna onto the plan. Yes, she could dismiss it as being frantic to search for Tony, but that could lead to her suggesting the two split up. If they split up and Britney's hunch was right, then she could just return to the well and make sure Tony was incapacitated. She could use that as a trap to trail this woman back to the park to make sure of the situation, she suspected the woman would have some way of keeping a tab on her, whether by magic or other means. Despite Tony's eccentricities, Britney knew that he'd be fine. After listening to some of her answers, Britney decided to go with a bit riskier of a play. Hopefully this only suspect of present would not be slighted by her questions. "So where are you from?" she asked, putting on a bit of a flirtatious voice. She never liked this sort of method, this sort of "seduction" to get her way, but she had unfortunately gotten used to it thanks to some of the guys in her college classes. Perhaps it would work on this woman? Only time would tell...

    Tony, meanwhile, was still pacing around in the water at the bottom of the well. "Tony still wondered what the mysterious assailant would have as a possible motive. He did not look particularly well off, and if the plan was slave trade, this would be a horrible execution of it. At least, that was what he had assumed. He was not well versed in the slave trade, but he had seen a movie about it some time ago. A dashing young lady of Bellum, kidnapped by Pergrandians! Her woe strucken father, demanding that she be set free! A wonderful tale of a father's love for his daughter, what an amazing movie 'Captured' was, and what a wonderful performance by Neil Leeson!" He coughed, getting back on track. "So why would they go after him? And who were 'they,' anyways?"

    "Well, I thought I would like to see the home of the Magic Council. They kinda are the real power in Fiore, you know? Plus, I'd always heard that Era was one of the most beautiful cities in the country. I think it is, in a way." Amber replied to the first question. She continued to answer the girl, carefully manipulating the truth.

    The lioness raised an eyebrow slightly as Britney's voice changed, a hint of flirtation sliding into her voice. Amber knew at that moment that something was amiss. This attempt at seduction was so bad, the demidemon knew immediately that the girl had never tried it on another girl before. Which likely meant that her efforts were fruitless anyway. But the fact that Britney was even trying... She was definitely suspicious.

    "I'm originally from a little village in the south of Fiore. It was so small, it didn't even have a name, we just called it 'the village'. I eventually decided it was too small for me,and left to explore the world." More lies mixed with truth. She didn't remember her home town all that much, but she remembered that it was tiny, and somewhere in the south.

    Well, she's probably not doing this for me, Britney thought to herself as the woman answered about her hometown after she seemed unfazed by Britney's attempt to flirt. "That's definitely more interesting than mine and Tony's story," Britney said, giving up the facade of flirting. Flirting with women was never something she was comfortable with anyhow, so she must have misread some of the subtle signs Kenna seemed to be giving. It was no issue for her, at the very least. "Me and Tony just grew up here in Era. Dad worked in the Knights. Tony always admired that. Well, Dad and the detective movies he watched." She shrugged. "You have any siblings? Oh, no problem if you don't wanna talk about your home life. I get that not everyone has as pristine of circumstances as me and Tony." This woman was still the only lead Britney had, but she was not the one that was really good at detecting things with people. That was Tony when it came to everything except people being weirded out by him. Tony always confused Britney, she had to admit.

    "If they weren't after him..." Tony continued. "What could they be after? His stuff? Certainly there were easier targets. It had to be Tony, specifically. So what for..?" He took a moment. "It was at that moment that everything clicked for him!" He brought up his Archive computer. "There was one thing that distinguished Tony specifically." He quickly began typing on the keyboard. "They were not after Tony..." He hit send, the message hopefully being sent over to Britney's phone. With that, he began typing out something more frantically, a dark green light emitting from the holographic computer orb to burst through the rocky ceiling. Light filtered in from above as Tony managed to get a weak enough holding from his Archive Magic onto a grip, getting just to the point where the rocks had returned from normal. His hands gripped on the smallest of rock "handles," as the Rune Knight detective struggled to climb out. He figured that Britney had moved far enough with who she suspected was the culprit so that Tony could escape. Thanks to archive and her phone, he could track her down easily and hopefully stop this fiend from taking his sister!

    Amber cursed under her breath as she sensed a minor seismic event occurring near the well. It felt like shattering stone and falling rock, which meant only one thing - the male had broken free. Distracted as she was, she completely missed what Britney was saying. But it didn't matter - the jig was up.

    Just as Britney's phone would buzz, Amber would lurch into action like a striking snake. She dropped the bags to the ground and whirled, grabbing Britney by the back of the neck with a single hand, lifting the girl off the ground as her hand transformed into that of a demon - red-skinned and scaled, with vicious claws in place of fingernails that dimpled Britney's soft skin. "Well, princess, looks like the fun is over." she purred. "Your brother just broke free, and it seems like he sent you a message. But you knew what I was up to from the start, didn't you? Clever girl."

    Britney felt a buzz on her phone, and before she could even check, her neck was grabbed fiercely and she was lifted into the air. "Dammit, I was right," she choked out. She tried wrestling herself away from the grip, but the woman was too strong. "I...I had my suspicions, but I couldn't-"

    Tony was there surprisingly quickly, an Archival computer already loaded up and ready to use spells. "The climactic moment had arrived," Tony said, figuring out how best to take care of this situation while Britney was in danger. "If Tony were to act too hastily, there would be disastrous consequences. But that was something he could deal with later. This woman was not who she said she was. An earth mage of some sort, that was all Tony knew. That, and the now demonic hand she bore. It looked so different from the rest of her body that it-"

    "It's not a TakeOver!" Britney choked out, weak. She had managed to figure out what grip to get this woman taken down, but she did not know when to enact her plan. "Stop monologuing and help me, Tony!"

    Tony slowly made his way closer, making sure that he was ready to stop his approach should she perform anything suspicious towards Britney.

    "Correct on all counts." Amber replied with a smirk. "I'm not who I said I was, and it's not a Take Over." A ripple shimmered over her flesh as she transformed into her real shape - gaining a few inches in height and a curvier figure, hair and eyes transmuting to gold, animalistic ears and tail sprouting from her body. Most tellingly, the Errings Rising mark swirled into existence on the part of her midriff left visible by her cut-off top.

    "Take another step closer and I snap your sister's pretty neck, big guy." she purred with a faint sneer. "Or maybe I'll just let the earth swallow her." With an effort of will, she opened a rift in the ground beneath her feet, dangling Britney directly over it.

    Tony stopped in his tracks right as the woman told him to stop. He thought of what he could do when he noticed Britney beginning to take in air. Britney seemed to have a plan, so Tony let her do what she needed. Britney got enough strength from eating the air, a vibrant green emanating from her fists and feet. She kicked backwards, staggering the unsuspecting assailant into dropping her. Britney quickly kicked the side of the hole in the ground, keeping her from falling. As soon as she could, she dashed back ahead, grabbing the woman in a headlock. She kept the grip on the woman tight as Tony marched over and delivered an inelegant boot to the face, knocking her out.

    "That could've hurt me, Tony!" Britney chastised.

    Tony shrugged, picking up the woman over his shoulder. Britney gave a quizzical look as he seemed to effortlessly carry the woman back to his detective firm, finally getting the chance to use his cliche interrogation room. Upon stepping in, he had Britney help tie the woman to a fairly comfortable chair as Tony dimmed the lights except for the one hanging in the middle of the room, swaying back and forth and lightly flickering. He waited for her to come to, having Britney give him a signal when she awoke so her could dramatically spin his chair around.

    "You've made some mistakes getting to this point, miss," Tony said. "Of course, there's a reason for this. So the question is... why?" He set his elbows against the desk and looked at her. "Start from the beginning."

    For Amber, it was all over so fast she barely had time to grunt. All of a sudden, the helpless girl she was holding summoned magic of some kind and broke free of her grip. Then there was a flurry of motion that ended with the lioness in a headlock. Before she had time to consider her escape, a boot connected with her face with a flash of phantom light that faded into darkness. Before she passed out, a single thought floated across her consciousness. "Crap."

    When she came to, she fought back a groan at the pounding in her head. She could feel ropes around her arms and legs, and it wouldn't do to show her captors any weakness. She kept her head down and her eyes closed, controlling her breathing for the time being in an attempt to fool her captors into thinking she was still unconscious. Meanwhile, she flexed her arms and legs as slowly and carefully as she could, testing the strength of her bonds. They seemed to be ordinary ropes, nothing fancy like magic-infused or metal-threaded. She could still feel her magic, which meant they hadn't taken steps to neutralize it. That was a mistake.

    Smirking a little, she raised her head, staring directly at the person across the table from her, her eyes turning slit-pupiled in the glare of the light. As she thought, it was the male from before, Tony. She listened as he monologued for a little bit, then shrugged disdainfully.

    "Why did I attack you? Well, the answer is that I thought your sister was attractive and I wanted a little time alone with her. But you were in my way, so I dumped you down a well." she said with a faint sneer. "It didn't take much effort."

    Tony and Britney were both a bit stunned at this. "Wait, that's it?" Tony asked, somewhat disappointed.

    "That's a really petty reason for assault," Britney plainly said.

    Tony brushed it aside. "Well, it doesn't matter. Tony knew that there was something off about this woman. She clearly was not who she said she was, and the brief period of questioning he had with his sister-"

    "I literally just told you her name right before we got here."

    "...yielded results he could not quite find in any databanks. Of course, this was not uncommon. Smaller villages or foreigners often did not have census data, so he was not certain that this alleged 'Kenna Brown' was who she said she was. The mark upon her chest was one that Tony had read frequently in his journals. Errings Rising, a prominent dark guild stationed in the mountains of Fiore. One of the three largest Dark Guilds in the country, at that. Of course, he had only seen them in reading. So then the question came..." He slammed his hand on the table, taking the lollipop out of his mouth that he was using as a mock cigarette. "What was your real purpose of coming to Era? Errings Rising scouting mission? Their leader was certainly an intimidating foe, as was the Warlord in their midst, the one simply known as Jester. One of only three in the entire recognition of his systems..."

    Britney sighed, taking a few steps forwards. "I'm sorry about Tony, honestly. If don't think you're lying about your motivation to attack Tony. An attempt to seduce me is... flattering, I suppose? But either way, you still attacked two members of the Rune Knights. I'm guessing you were acting alone?"

    "And another thing!" Tony blurted, spinning on his heel. "I recall seeing a mark upon your ribcage that was one of the Rune Knights! You clearly are not a member of the Rune Knights, so I will have to charge you with impersonation of an officer! Explain yourself, ma'am!"

    Amber's eyebrow lifted at the woman's last statement. This pair were Rune Knights? Her old commander would laugh himself to death if he'd seen this guy muttering and bumbling through an interrogation.

    "Yes and no." she replied to the question, deciding to be honest. For the moment. "I came to Era to gather information about the state of the Rune Knights. Garrison strength, supply lines, troop movements, so on and so forth. Attacking you two I did on my own initiative. However, if I had known you two were Rune Knights, I would have planned it out a little more carefully. You would be the ones tied to a chair, not me."

    She then turned her gaze back onto the male. "The reason I'm not in your database is because 'Kenna Brown' is not my real name. Look up the name 'Amber Stone' and that should answer both of your questions. Assuming they didn't redact my files." she said. If they hadn't, she would be in the Rune Knights' personnel files, probably listed as defected or Missing in Action or something. Hell, they may even detail everything that had caused her to go into hiding. Or at least, it would detail the 'official' story. Certainly not the true story.

    Tony quickly brought up his Archive computer, typing in the name. Sure enough, the result came up and it looked like this woman. He could not see the exact details of her removal from the Rune Knights, perhaps because his Archive had not been fully linked up with the Rune Knight's system. "Any particular reason for the scouting on Era?" Tony asked as he continued to look through any files he could about this woman.

    "I doubt she'd be allowed to talk about it," Britney said, rolling her eyes. "I'm guessing that you were too wary of me for my flirting to work, but that's fine. Not going to work now either, so I won't bother with it. I'll just ask you straight-up. Who exactly are you? Of the three most active Dark Guilds in Fiore, Elysium and Errings Rising aren't exactly subtle. I mean, having Warlords in the midst won't help, but it seems like everyone is pretty blatant on what they do." She pushed Tony aside, who went to a different stool to work on compiling files on Amber Stone. "I've seen both be referred to as terrorist guilds. So why the secrecy? Elysium attacked Magnolia recently, destroyed their guild hall. Nothing subtle about what they did there. Dragons are a little bit on the tough side to hide. Why wouldn't Errings Rising just attack Era?" She leaned up against the desk, looking at the woman. "I don't know why I'm asking you. You probably don't know. Seems like only higher ups are aware of the situations, and I don't think you're one of their higher ups. That said, I want you to tell us all you're aware of before we have to turn you over to the more... willing to use different means to gather information." Britney raised an eyebrow, not knowing if that bluff would work.

    Amber smirked at Britney's ham-handed threat of torture. It was so obviously a ploy, she almost laughed out loud. With a slight grunt of effort and a ripping sound, she leaned forward and placed her elbows on the table, lacing her fingers in front of her. Her wrists still trailed the ragged ends of the rope she'd been bound with, which she'd ripped through with hardly any difficulty.

    "Let me tell you what I've observed on this scouting trip." she said with a smug smirk. "First, the Rune Knights must be truly desperate for members if they allowed you two in. It's clear you barely know anything about investigation or interrogation. You can't even threaten me properly. Granted, you may have some powerful magic to play around with, but it takes more than strength to be a Rune Knight. It takes skill, dedication, experience. You're so green you didn't even think to use magic-suppressing handcuffs."

    She shook her head and stood up, ripping her way out of the rest of the ropes. "You want to know how I know that? Because I used to be one of you. Until my commanding officer ordered me to kill innocent civilians and then disavowed me, kicked me out of the Knights, and put a bounty on my head. I swore I would kill him one day for that. Second, I observed that this isn't a Rune Knight facility. They're never this rundown, and they have magic-nullifying interrogation rooms. And that means that I can bust my way out of here whenever I like, and no one would be able to stop me." she said, a sneer creeping into her voice and face.

    "My name is Amber Syenite Stone. My comrades used to call me 'Breaker' because of my destructive magic. Recently, I've inherited a new title: Queen of Stone. It was a mistake not to bind my powers, and it was a mistake to let me touch the ground." As she spoke, the earth began to shake beneath them, the building rattling and the lamp swinging wildly. "Now it's my turn to ask the questions, unless you want me to bring this whole building - maybe even this whole neighborhood - down."

    Tony flinched a little at the bindings breaking while Britney seemed oddly unfazed by this.

    ”Tony?” Britney began turning to face her eccentric older brother. ”Didn’t you say you used the magic nullifying rope?”

    Tony sheepishly scratched the back of his head as he typed in some of the new information in. ”I thought I did... well that probably means that, on the bright side, the boxes for the holidays probably won’t be able to be broken by magic.”

    ”You switched the rope you sent to mom and dad with the anti magic ones?”

    Tony refused to answer. Britney sighed. ”See what I have to deal with, Stone? Anyways, despite Tony’s... uniqueness, let’s say, he’s a skilled detective and knows his way around Archive. I myself am a university graduate and have a unique lacrima that allows me to absorb any element. No, we are not as strong as the top brass, but that is not our jobs. We are just soldiers of the knights, nothing more, nothing less. I will admit that Tony’s made a mistake, and he’s prone to do that. But if we thought we were really in danger, he’d almost be too prepared.”

    Britney sighed as she leaned back. ”Tony had discovered what he needed to find. Amber ‘Breaker’ Stone. A highly respected Rune Knight. She matched the description of the woman he saw here. However, she was eventually released from the force. While the official story is budget cuts, there are rumors on forums that she was involved in nefarious deeds. Just as she described now what her superiors told her to do, the rumors said she worked alone. These claims were disputed. Some forums claim she was a loose cannon. Others a victim of a corrupt force before a recent reform. The officers mention in that incident by these unreliable forums are mostly removed from the force. Some dead, some missing, some retired. Tony suspected that perhaps this ‘Amber’ had gone on a tour of revenge, but he hadn’t the proof.”

    Britney sighed. ”I take it that means you’re telling the truth, Stone?”

    "Damn right I went on a revenge tour! Those bastards ruined my fucking life!" Amber shouted, slamming her palms into the table, cracking it badly and almost shattering it. "For years I was a good soldier, doing everything I was told to do. I enjoyed my work. Hell, I even loved it. I was helping make the world a better place, using my destructive powers in a constructive way. How did the Rune Knights repay me for my loyal service? By tricking me into killing dozens of civilians, kicking me out and putting a bounty on my head. I was forced to live underground for almost three years, lest my pretty head got put on a spike. The first thing I did when I emerged was join Errings Rising, who is helping me get my revenge and tear down the corrupt institution that stole my life away from me. I'll show the Rune Knights and the Magic Council what it's like to be on the receiving end of the Breaker's wrath. Even the whole Fioran government if I have to." Throughout the lioness's rant, the room continued shaking, the quake worsening as stuff fell off the walls and cracks began forming in the walls and ceiling.

    "And I'm certainly not going to let a two-bit detective and his goody two-shoes sister get in my way. So you'll either give me the information I need or you'll be the next two names on my list." With that, she slammed her fists into the table yet again, completely destroying it. Shards of wood flew everywhere, chunks of splintered table clattering to the ground. The demidemon stood tall, golden eyes blazing as she glared at the siblings, lionlike tail thrashing behind her.
