That was nowhere as sweet as many had imagined it and wars ravaged the world for years, until humans and other beings started to accept each other's presence in the new, shared world. Now, in year 2367, most advanced technology is mixed with the harnessed magic, bringing new highs and lows to Earth. And in this world that is balancing on the edge, everyone keeps playing the theater of life, hoping, believing, dreaming... Now it is time to meet the actors... [Ainthe Deleon] | ||||

The Green Library was dimly lit by the light filtering in through a single window, but Jayce didn't mind. His eyes were used to shadows and darkness, and were scanning the room back and forth. Although he had been assured that he would not have any trouble here, he refused to let down his guard. His paranoia--not that he liked to call it that; he preferred "instincts"--had kept him alive all these years. He didn't see any reason to change his ways.
As such, he sat in a corner of the room, his back against the bookshelves so that he had a clear view of his surroundings. He didn't like surprises, unless he was the one doing the surprising. He sat casually, one leg crossed over the other, one set of fingers tapping slowly across his thigh as he watched the door, waiting for his new partner to appear. Jayce was used to working with new people. Most of his partners didn't last more than a few jobs, whether because they were killed or they just didn't want to work with him again. He didn't mind it, though. People came and went. In this life, nothing was constant. He sighed and stretched, his hands up above his head, cracking his neck back and forth, eyes closed for just a minute. When he opened them again, a small tremor of surprise went through him as he saw that a woman was suddenly standing across the library, in front of a window. He hadn't heard her come in, hadn't seen the door open. It would have taken her a few moments to walk from the door to where she stood now. His green eyes narrowed as he looked at her, slowly lowering his arms. She wasn't a normal human--not that there were many pure blooded humans left these days, but she wasn't as normal as she could have been. As she should have been. Jayce didn't have a lot of love for those on the supernatural side of the spectrum. He could only make out her silhouette against the light of the window, couldn't see her face, but he assumed she was here because of him. "You're Deleon?" He asked, his voice echoing in the library. He hoped he got the name right. It sounded right. My Quest Thread Chats are much loved :) | ||||

Ainthe's eyes slid over her new partner's body, darkness as clear as daylight to her, noting how well muscled the stretched arms were and the strange markings on his face - something stirred in the back of girl's mind when she saw them, but she couldn't quite pinpoint it. Other than that, he seemed fairly normal. ~ Hello, I am Sadrain, a ghost Caracal, but you can call me Rainy.

Jayce watched the woman as she approached, taking her in. She seemed fairly business like. That was good. They could get this job done and get on with their lives. Just as long as she understood that he was the one giving the orders.
"Jayce Raggenrol," he said, taking the papers from her. His eyes didn't even touch the words--he knew it was too dark to read properly, and he wouldn't allow himself to sit there and squint like some idiot. Tossing the papers on the table, he asked, "So what's the job?" My Quest Thread Chats are much loved :) | ||||

Ainthe sighed in the manner "oh, the idiots I have to work with" and got up, taking the chip. She walked to the back wall and few moments later, it turned into a large screen. When she inserted the chip, it asked for password she quickly entered and then multiple folders appeared. Before the girl went further, she turned back to man, with slightly haughty expression. ~ Hello, I am Sadrain, a ghost Caracal, but you can call me Rainy.

Jayce's fingers began tapping along his thigh again as he listened to her. There were several things not working here: first off, she seemed to think that she was in charge, and that may be so on paper, but that would have to change once they got in the field. It was only natural that Jayce would take the lead when they actually started on the job. That's how it was always done. The bosses could put anyone they liked in charge, but Jayce always came out on top in the end. Just give it time, give it time.
Second, it was becoming clear to him that he would have to teach her her place. Regardless of what she thought her position may be, she had no right to talk to him like that. Either she was stupid, or she thought she had more guts than she did. But again, these things would straighten themselves out in the field, away from the prying eyes of the higher-ups. "Sounds vague enough," he said as she described the mission. "Get in, keep quiet, get the thing, and get out. And yes, I'm trained in the use of several types of vehicle, and those that I haven't had training with, I can figure out pretty quickly." My Quest Thread Chats are much loved :) | ||||

Ainthe heard something in his voice that irritated her. She couldn't pinpoint it exactly, but it sounded too much like arrogance and boss' attitude. The girl grit her teeth, glad he couldn't see it. ~ Hello, I am Sadrain, a ghost Caracal, but you can call me Rainy.

Jayce watched with feigned boredom as his new partner ran through the plan. His eyes darted across the maps, following her fingers, processing her every word. The job itself didn't seem to be to terribly hard. There would be quite a bit of sneaking around, disabling security, but he could work with that. What he couldn't work with was having her in the lead. Not only did he not have a lot of trust for those who dabbled in the supernatural, but he didn't exactly like the idea of playing the sidekick. It just wasn't how it was done. He was in the lead. He gave the orders. He went in while his partner kept watch. Not the other way around.
Still, it wouldn't do much good to bitch about it here. Too many authority figures. If he tried to muscle his way into the number one position, he'd be shut down immediately. Maybe even shipped out to another company, and to be perfectly honest he didn't like the idea of having to move again. While it was true that he spent a lot of time switching between companies, it was a pain in the butt to get to used to a new structure. He'd just have to wait until the mission was underway, then work his way under Deleon's skin. Maybe he'd even rescue her from certain death. That would be worth some points with the boss. He put on a little smile as she finished her speech, masking his contempt. Looking up at her, he said, "Sounds simple enough. And in the meantime . . . ?"

He was up to something! She could feel it, she could see it, behind the well put up mask of boredom. She was master of pretending after all. And so, Ainthe, spoke calmly, despite the vicious thoughts going trough her mind. In all honesty, she had thought she would have gotten past the point of getting ticked off so easily by man, but, apparently she wasn't. Or, it was just her intuition telling her he would give her a lot of headache. There were men who seemed to do nothing but that. ~ Hello, I am Sadrain, a ghost Caracal, but you can call me Rainy.

Jayce had always had an eye for vehicles and other shiny objects of considerable worth and excitement. This baby was the whole deal--to be honest, he was surprised his new employer had this kind of thing at their disposal. It was just big enough for two people, but it's sleek, dark design allowed it to move quickly and silently through the coming night, nearly invisible to the casual observer. There was plenty of storage below deck for weapons, equipment, and whatever else they might pick up along the way.
As he drove to the predestined drop spot, he chewed a plastic toothpick and thought about the approaching assignment. He should be in charge, but how could he when his partner was keeping information from him? Purposefully, too. She didn't want him to know anything he didn't need to know. She'd string him along, give him a bite here and there. Just enough to complete whatever asinine task she gave him. Bullshit. He'd have to get his hands on those plans at some point, turn everything to his own direction. He slid the hovercraft behind the building, his fingers tapping the wheel. To be honest, he was nervous, too. About magic. He'd never trusted the stuff, never seen any good come of it. But maybe he could use that to his advantage. Any screw ups from her end and he'd be able to run this thing all by himself. Having parked the hovercraft, he jogged to where he was supposed to meet Ainthe, slowing just before he rounded the corner and she came into sight. From there he walked casually, his clothes dark and functional with a variety of tools and weapons concealed within the mix-matched pockets. When he saw Ainthe, he couldn't suppress a smile, his eyes running over her. He hadn't been able to tell before, seeing as she was buried beneath all those ruffles and lace, but she was quite a looker. Only slightly ashamed, he allowed one more lingering look before approaching her. "Lookin' good," he said. "Ready?" My Quest Thread Chats are much loved :) | ||||
