Streets

Shimera's eyes widened. This Cess seemed very extraordinary. She then got the urge to have this boy tell her future.

"I'd like my fortune told..." Shimera said, coming up to Cess and smiling. From a little pocket in her shirt, she pulled out five dollars. She's an aristocrat, of course she has five dollars.


Slums: Streets

After looking at the time, KxS started running. She needed to get back to her workshop/home...fast.

Collete smiled brightly and nodded, winding the key in it;s back and watching it move along the table.

"E......D.....D.....I......E" Collete noticed, her eyes following the little toy. "Eddie! Is that it's name?" she asked her older brother.

Slums: Old Shop


"W-Wait!" Sophie exclaimed, rushing forward and grabbing on to Spoony's arm before he could leave. "I'm sorry! Really I am! It's just....Well I don't get to on airships often....Or...Ever. I just want to see one!"

Sophie had always loved airships and one day wished to travel the world on one.

"what would I have to do to convince you to let me come along to your little shindig?"

Stark Industries

"I think you look wonderful" Crystal said with a slight smile, moving forward and fixing his tie a bit. "There! Perfect! You're going to sweep those ladies off their feet!"

Crystal giggled, heading out the door "And now we can go!"

Nevex looked at KxS with a small smile. I suppose I have time for a small little favor. "You seem to be in a rush. Need a lift?"

----

"...Getting dark." 75## sighed, looking around...he saw Samuel, Alice and the party in danger. "Well...I guess I can party a bit." He grabbed his pick, letting his abilities run free.

"Let's rock." 75## began to play a fast guitar solo, trying to knock the thief against the floor.

[Slums]

The thief paused, looking to Samuel. He looked genuinely confused, and conflicted. Then, he suddenly pushed Martis down and charged at Samuel, aiming the gun at his chest.

As he moved, Alice dashed forward and slashed! She cut the man's arm, and he dropped his rifle with a gasp.

[Stark Industries]

Sama was a bit flustered as Crystal stepped forward and fixed his tie. He adjusted his glasses and shook his head.

“I have a feeling the only way I'll sweep a lady off her feet is if I accidentally trip somebody.” Sama replied with a self-deprecating laugh. “Anyway, I'm not going to smooze with rich ladies.”

“I am.” Tony stated bluntly. “I'm hoping to take one home... or two... maybe three...”

Sama groaned. “I'm sorry about him. He's a utter pig, but deep down he's a nice guy.”

Stark led them towards the train station, where a large train was being boarded. A train that would led towards the Airship Port.

[Slums: Caskett Residence]

Roll grinned and hugged her brother.

“Oh thank you Rock! This will be great! We'll have a wonderful time, and maybe even meet some nobles!”

She grabbed a few things. “Of course, I don't have any fancy clothes to wear... oh well! I'll worry about that later. For now, let's get to that train!”

[R&V Industries]

Rica noticed the time.

“Ah, Ethan, we've got a choice to make. We can take the early train that's leaving soon, or we could kill some time and take the late train. Depends on how long you feel like rubbing elbows with the snobs.”

Riley's Workshop

Riley shook his head a negative.

"Nope, nothing new. I just stopped by the junkyard and found an automaton though. I'm actually surprised, do you know how rarely those show up in the Junkyard? And this one is almost brand new, just broken up a bit. I just couldn't let an opportunity like this pass me by."

He finished washing his hands off and splashed his face a few times before taking up a towel. That's when Aiden showed him the money and Riley took it, rifling through it... Before taking just a few bills from it and passing the rest, a good 80% of it, back to the girl.

"We're not exactly under financial constraints right now, so since you earned this, it's mostly yours. Thank you for your help as usual, Firefly, but now we have enough to splurge a little bit, so those are yours to do with as you will. I know would have liked an allowance like that if I was in your spot."

Grinning, Riley stepped out of the bathroom, still playing around with the towel.

"Say, you were outside as well. Did you notice anything strange? Everyone seemed awful excited today for some reason."

"It's okay, I think he's nice...Perhaps a bit eccentric....But nice!

Crystal giggled, taking a seat on the train, string out of the window. The slums looked back at her, looking especially drepressing right about now. She turned to Sama "I hope the party is really nice. I always wanted to go to something like this!"

Of course the girl needed to remember she was there to serve drinks and food and not to dance and mingle....Well not much at least.

[Train]

The train station was a bustling place, but thanks to Stark being... Stark, the three were able to get through quickly and they soon arrived on the train. Naturally Tony had a private compartment in first class.

“The party will be wonderful!” Stark grinned, helping himself to the brandy.

Sama rolled his eyes, and looked to Crystal. “I'm sure it will be fun... I just hope you have fun, and don't have to spend the whole night working.”

Didymus had stood firm as the theif charged at Samuel...he was going to fire, but Alice intervened...

Didymus stepped forward and lowered his rifle, pointing it directly at the theif's head.

"Stay down." he said.

"Let's get a medical man here and take this joker in. Any of your people good at dressing wounds, or should I get my medic on it?"

Slums: Old Shop

Spoony was startled as the girl grabbed him before he could teleport outta the shop.

"Well...", Spoony said. "Okay, you can come with me as a guest. I'm allowed to do that, but... how good of an actor are you? We'll have to get you... and now, me, some new clothes. But if we can pass you off as a rich person, you can totally come with."

Train

Rock and Roll had arrived at the train station, and soon boarded the train they needed to be on.

Rock was no longer wearing his blue armor, but since it doubled as something that could be used for defense in emergencies, he did have it with him in his luggage. The clothes he was wearing were the nicest he owned. While they weren't much compared to some of what the other passengers on the train were wearing, they were still pretty spiffy.

As Rock and Roll sat down on their seats, Rock spotted a very famous figure.

"Hey...", Rock whispered to Roll. "Is that... Tony Stark?!"

The girl now went from excited to dejected in a span of about four seconds. While the concept of going to a fancy party was amazing she wouldn't really fit in...which seemed to be one of the deciding factors to the boy in front of her.

Sophie was a pretty girl, but she was also pretty poor. The nicest clothes she had on were on her right now and were covered in dirt and a bit of blood thanks to the little run in earlier. Her face, while cute, was a bit bruised and dirty as well.....She had the potential to be one of those girls with money, but wasn't quite there....That would require money.

"How hard is it to be rich?" The girl asked

Train

"Who knows, maybe i'll get a break! I'd really love to go dancing!" Crystal said with a dreamy smile.

I can't see what you're imagining
-Streets-

Cess took the money, pocketing it, and grinning at the woman.

“Hmmm...” he took her hand, looking at it.

“I see...a very good time for you in the near future...” Cess said, “There's a party...Fancy movers and shakers...in the air.”

He had heard about the aristocrat party that was happening.

Cess continued to trace random lines on Shimera's hand.

“I also see...something fun. A handsome stranger, perhaps?” Cess grinned. He was totally trying to flirt with her now.

-Spork Residence-

“Yah, that's his name!” Hammah nodded, “I think I remember dad trying to make an automaton...”

He sighed, looking at several other half finished inventions piled in his room.

Most of everything else was at the junkyard...Old things of his dad's.

“I guess this was just a small thing he made for us,” Hammah said, “You were barely born when this one was made...”

-R&V Industries-

“Let's take the early train,” Ethan said, “I've never really been on an airship before.”

He straightened his own tie, “Just need to get Maize, and we can go.”

Ethan turned, and after a few minutes poked his head back into the room.

“Let's go.”

-Train-

As the train stopped, two more figures entered.

One was the dark haired Gallic, smiling softly, dressed in a neatly pressed suit. Behind was his red haired daughter, dressed fancy as well.

“Ahhh, the train,” Gallic said, “Such a marvel.”

In truth, he detested the train, but would never let anyone know.

Walter also stood behind them. He provided security.

-Slums-

Samuel glared at the man as well, then looked to Alice and Didymus.

“Didymus, back away,” Samuel said, “You don't want to get to close to people like this...”

Spoony waved his hand and said, "Eh, it's not that hard. Actually, all you have to do is just say you're from some rich family or something. It doesn't really matter, I don't think any of them really pay attention to what the kids do."

Spoony then said, "Look... I probably shouldn't have come to this shop and scared you, so I'll do this as a way to make it up to you. And I can get you cleaned up and looking like a rich girl really easily. I can afford it easily, so really, it's the least I can do. So, if you don't mind stopping by here and there to get us fixed up for the party, it really shouldn't be a problem at all. Besides... I think it'll be a lot of fun. The way my family is and what they let me do makes it hard for me to make any friends, and I've always been curious of what people from this part of town are like."

[Train]

Roll looked over to one of the compartments that they passed by, and gasped.

“It is! Wow... Tony Stark! He's an aristocrat, but he works in his own engineering company. What a guy... he's kind of dreamy, don't you think Rock?”

I'm sure he agrees.

[…]

Sama paused, rubbing the back of his neck with his gloved right hand.

“You should find some time to dance!”

He paused once more. By now, I think we all know what he'd like to say – but we also know Sama, and he chickened out.

“I'm sure it'd be fun.”

[R&V Industries]

Rica grinned when Ethan returned, and adjusted his fancy top hat.

“Excellent. Let's make haste, the train leaves soon.”

He headed out of the room, and nodded to Maize. “Good evening, Maize! Looking forward to the party?”

Don't worry. Rica won't flirt with his best friend's daughter. He'll just fall for the same woman as Ethan and cause trouble later.

[Slums]

The thief groaned, but he shook his head.

“Screw you man! If I can't get the goods, you may as well kill me... he ain't no let no failure live anyway...”

Alice paused. “What are you talking about?”

The thief shook his head. “No way man... no way!”

Suddenly, shots rang out. Alice was on edge – but she wasn't the target.

The thief was. Struck in the chest. He was dead.

And from a nearby rooftop, a team of at least seven thieves crouched, with rifles aimed; and they opened fire on the military relief team!

Rock scratched his head and tried to agree, "Ummm... I guess? I do know that he's more or less earned his fortune, though. Not like a lot of the other famous aristocrats that simply inherited theirs from their family."

Rock then thought for a moment, "Say, Roll, wouldn't it be awesome if it turned out your parents were rich aristocrats? Heh... ummm..."

Rock cleared his throat and said, "But... whatever they are, I'm sure we'll find them someday."

"Say, Roll, wouldn't it be awesome if it turned out your parents were rich aristocrats? Heh... ummm..."

Roll paused, becoming pretty quiet at the moment. She suddenly looked down, taking a small silver pocketwatch from out of her pocket. It was the only momento she had of her real parents, whom she had never met.

“... My parents... aristocrats?”

She suddenly closed her eyes and punched the wall.

“No! That would be terrible... if my parents are rich, then why would they have given me up...?”

Roll was now shaking, and teary eyed.
