GRAPPLING HOOK!

Stark Industries

"Hammah is super talented!" Colette exclaimed, rushing back over to her blonde brother and grinning proudly "That's why you should give him a super awesome job!"

Crystal looked over to Sama, frowning a bit. She knew electricity was a rare and special thing....But it was also painful to her best friend.

Perhaps she would talk to him about it in a bit...For now the girl went over to Hammah, watching the electricity in his hands crackle. "That is pretty awesome! How much do you think you can power with one blast?"

R&V Industries

"Special guests eh?" Kanna said, looking around and inspecting a full bookshelf. She then wandered over to Rica's desk, not bothering to pull up a chair but instead sitting on it's top. "I suppose that means you get a lot of business done right?"

The woman gave a little grin before yawning and looking around "Soooo is anyone going to offer me a drink before we begin?"

Knife's Mansion

"Oooookkay Sophie....Play it cool and they're sure to like you!...Hopefully" Sophie muttered to herself, making her way to the front door of the house.

The girl waited.....Hopefully they would let her in looking like this. She squished down her hair.

Hydron Streets

Jason groaned, glaring at Maize "You're not helping you know" he muttered before looking back to Melanie....She was staring up at him. With big Melanie eyes.....So big.

He groaned again "Fine then....We'll go to the workshop for a few minutes....Then Galv has to go home!"

"YAY!" Melanie exclaimed, turning to Galv "I can't wait to see it! You'll show me around right!?"

[Slums Clinic]

Inside the clinic, the nurse didn't look happy. She was a middle-aged heavyset woman with a stone-like glare that could intimidate most people, even those of the military. She looked horribly annoyed as Didymus burst in.

“Sir, you need to go to the back of the line.”

[Stark Industries]

“I don't think you'll have to worry about Hammah getting a job... he's got a good eye for design and Mr. Stark doesn't have a problem hiring electricity users.”

Sama knew from experience. Even if he rarely used his powers, and was a bit afraid of electricity in general.

“Anyway, I think you all did great. And since Stark left it up to me... I say jobs for everyone!”

[R&V Industries]

Rica chuckled as Kanna took a seat on his desk. I'm sure she was hardly the first woman to sit on that desk... and I hope Rica cleans it.

“Certainly.” Rica approached his liquor cabinet, which was next to the desk, and pulled out a rather large bottle of something probably too high in alcohol to be legal, pouring a glass for Kanna.

Hammah grinned at his little sister, nodding.

He then paused, looking up at Crystal. She almost reminded me of his mother...

“Errr, well, not sure exactly,” Hammah answered, “I've never had to use a very long sustained blast...not since...five years ago...”

-R&V Industries-

Ethan paused, looking at the alcohol, not sure if he should drink some too. Last time both he and Rica got drunk, the office had been destroyed and the two woke up about a day later, Maize glaring at both of them.

“...Pour me a drink too,” Ethan said.

-Hydron Streets-

“Of course!” Galv said, “I'll show you some of the inventions I'm working on too!”

He grinned, taking Melanie's hand and heading towards the workshop.

Maize held out her arm to Jason, much like Kanna had to Ethan and Rica earlier.

“You don't mind I'm technically a commoner, do you?” she wondered.

Sama's face paled the instant Hammah mentioned 'five years ago'. The boy leaned back against a workbench, his breath suddenly catching in his chest.

“You... were there?” Sama asked, looking over to the blonde boy. “Five years ago, I mean... you were there too?”

Sama hated talking about that day. He could open up to Crystal, and Mr. Stark, whenever the latter wasn't drunk.

[R&V Industries]

“Oooh, this is going to be fun.” Rica chuckled as he poured a glass for Ethan. He knew that his best friend rarely drank... probably because Ethan hung out with Rica, who is a horrible influence and a very... bad drunk.

Rica then poured himself his own glass.

Didymus looked apologetic at the woman.

"I'm terribly sorry; official business. You haven't happened to see a blonde-haired young woman, blue-eyed, and..."

He described Alice, hoping to get a clue where she was. Soon. He was on the clock. If he took more than five minutes without coming out again, he had advised House Malvin's guards to storm the place.

“...Yah...we all were...” Hammah answered, growing quiet now, looking over at Colette, patting her softly on the head, “So were our parents...”

He was silent now, not wanting to say anything else.

“Our parents saved us...” Jimi added, “But...they didn't make it...”

“My dad is who taught me everything,” Hammah added, “And I knew I couldn't stop using electricity because of what happened...Dad believed in it! I had to carry on his legacy!”

“... Nope. Nobody like that here.” The nurse grunted at once, a bead of sweat rolling down the back of her neck. She looked nervous, and flustered, and she was clearly lying.

Suddenly, the door to the doctor's office opened. Out came a lanky man with long arms and legs, and tidy, trimmed red hair. His name was Jonathan Crane, and he was a doctor.

“Good day lieutenant. Can I help you...?”

[Stark Industries]

Sama frowned a bit, closing his eyes. He remembered a lot of people dying that day... he could still hear the screams, and feel the blood on his face... even losing an arm, he still felt lucky that he had survived that day.

“... That's very noble of you kid.”

It was Stark. He looked sober... well, sober-ish.

“Anyway. I think you all wanted some jobs... well, I've got a new ambition. A new dream. I want all of you on this project. You'll be paid double the normal rate for engineers, and I'll set you all up with apartments in one of my buildings.”

“... That's awesome Mr. Stark, but you don't own any apartment buildings.” Sama pointed out.

“I'll buy one.” Stark shrugged. “Anyway, what do you say?”

Shimera's Mansion

"We're heading toward the living room where the butler sleeps on the chair by the fireplace," Shimera said with a whispered voice. She then opened a secret window of some sort that was eye-height.

It showed the butler snoring on a comfy chair in front of the campfire. Shimera giggled at him, motioning Cess to come and see.

(Barely any effort due to tiredness and personal issues.)

Didymus was not a first-rate interrogator by any means. But this nurse was clearly intimidated by his question. He was about to grill her a little more when Crane appeared.

"...doctor? I'm wondering if you've happened to see a rather pretty young woman with..." he again described Alice as quickly as he could.

"...your nurse here seems a tad intimidated by the question, and insists she is NOT here."

He didn't mention House Malvin's guards outside who would storm the place-at least try to-if he didn't report back.

"Ohhh looks expensive" Kanna stated, accepting the glass and placing to her lips. The woman took a long sip before shuddering....It was strong. "Very refreshing" she said, overall happy with the strange tasting liquid. "Now i'm ready to get down to business"

....Not the bad kind! The less bad kind!

"I'm interested in being your partner"

....Not that bad kind! The less bad kind!

"I think I have all of the assets that you would be interested in"

....Not that bad kind! The less bad kind!

"Not to mention i'm very skilled at what I do"

...Not that-Oh screw it.

Stark Industries

Colette smiled up at her brother. She knew how sad Hammah got thinking about their parents....And Jimi would just get all stone faced and distract himself with work....She didn't remember her parents as well...

The girl then looked over to Mr. Stark "You'd really give us a new house?" she asked. The girl had lived in the same old crumbling house most of her life.

Hydron Streets

Jason looked down at Maize's arm, taking it after a moment. "I don't mind" he explained "Kanna on the other hand will flip out...But that's fine, I always loved to get on her nerves."

Somewhere Erin is steaming. And stabbing a little Maize doll.

Knife's Mansion

As the gates opened, Spoony ran out of the house and toward the front gates to escort Sophie inside.

"SOPHIE!!", Spoony yelled out. "Great, you made it! Follow me, dinner is about to be served!"

From inside the mansion, Fork looked out the window, and scoffed, "Just look at that... one of our servants should have been the one to see Sophie here, but Spoony just goes and escorts her himself. I say, mother and father, don't you think this is peculiar? Even for Spoony?"

-Stark Industries-

Hammah's face lit up...A new place to live? A nice place!

“It's a de-” Hammah began, but was cut off by Jimi.

“We'll also need a private workshop for Hammah in his spare time,” Jimi said, “And we will either need time and/or manpower to move our stuff from our current residence.”

-Shimera's Mansion-

Cess looked as well, chuckling quietly, then looked to Shimera.

“Errr...” he whispered, “Is there somewhere...private, we could go to?”

He figured...he'd just have to go for it.

-R&V Industries-

“Well...I have to say, from what I know about your company, your assets would be quite...beneficial,” Ethan said. “I assume you'd have to go over the records though, and us for you...And I would love to spend more time with you...”

He hadn't flirted for over twenty years...

He took a drink of the alcohol, shaking his head slightly, “I'm sure working together, we could...create something great.”

Like Aaron and Adrianna? Wait, no...

-Hydron Streets-

Maize grinned at Jason as he took her arm.

“Well, I am also rich and all,” Maize chuckled, “Just not aristocratic by blood...Though I suppose if I married one...”

As she trailed off, somewhere, Erin was angry, and not sure why.

-Workshop-

Thankfully, the workshop was nearby, and Galv opened it up, letting Melanie in.

“It's not that big...” Galv said, “But it's where I work...what do you wanna see first?”

[Slums Clinic]

Crane paused for a moment.

“... Yes. I recall a woman like that. She brought some supplies and asked some questions. Now I hate to trouble you, but could you ask those people outside to stand down? Having armed nobles in the streets bothers my patients and the worrying is not good for them.”

[R&V Industries]

“I must admit Kanna, I find myself enthralled by the idea of our being partners.” Rica grinned, and he meant both in business and the bad kind. We know what he means all the time.

“Between our two companies, we could form the largest engineering conglomerate in Hydron. We'd be an unstoppable force in this city.”

[Stark Industries]

Stark nodded to Colette with a smile.

“Of course. Buying a apartment building is no big deal. And if you're going to work for me, you need to have a nice place to live.”

He then looked to Jimi.

“Why a private workshop?”

[Knife's Mansion]

Knife scoffed a bit, looking to his daughter.

“I'm hardly surprised. It's fine... I have a plan. This will all be over soon.”

"I suppose I could ask the men outside to stand down..." Didymus said.

"...but you're going to have to tell me where that woman IS. In fact, I'm afraid that I'm going to have to search this place, it shouldn't interfere with your operations, I just want to have a look around, you can continue treating your patients as they need..." he said.

He seemed a tad insistent.

[Slums Clinic]

Crane looked a bit annoyed.

“Excuse me, but exactly what makes you think you have any right to go searching my clinic? I told you that the woman was here, she asked me a few questions, she asked directions and then she left. You have no legal recourse to search my clinic. I am a doctor, and you will be interfering with operations by snooping around as I'm attempting to treat people.”

The man paused, and turned to the side.

“Tell you what. If you insist, then tell your gun-totting friends to stand down and get out of patients way, and I'll personally show you every room in the clinic until you're satisfied that this woman is not here.”
