Didymus paused.

"Yes...I suppose it isn't quite that simple...but surely there's something you CAN do as an aristocrat."

He paused.

"Think about it. Particularly as an aristocrat, isn't it your...heck, I know, you try to live up to this-but isn't it your duty to use your power for good, as opposed to shunning it? Surely there's some way. And maybe you're already doing that, but surely it at least exists..." he chuckled a tad nervously.

I can't see what you're imagining
-Shady Building-

Ethan was quiet, standing by Rica, but remaining on alert, just in case.

“He might have two kids with him, too,” Ethan added, “No harm is to come to them...”

-Ice Cream Palor-

Jimi grinned, rubbing his hands together.

He was about to make the ice cream man rich.

As Jimi started ordering, which will go on for a bit, Hammah reentered, the suit off and stored back where it belonged.

-Shimera's Mansion-

Cess smirked as well, leaning forward and giving the girl another kiss.

“I have an idea...I'll show you a simple card trick!” Cess said, pulling out a somewhat battered deck of cards to Shimera, “Like to learn?”

-Kain's Car-

Galv stood stock still in his seat.

“Sell Melanie to the highest bidder...?” Galv thought, the idea repulsive to him. He knew he had to stop this man. Even if he didn't like Kanna, at least she wasn't just using her daughter to get something!

Well...she was, but Galv didn't know that.

He looked downwards. Maybe he could crash the car. Shock Kain, grab the wheel, or just overload it's engine with lightning.

But then what? Galv only had a slightly better chance then Kain of surviving that.

He sighed...then smiled, just for a second. His dad would be with Kanna. They had been making arrangements for his and Melanie's wedding, after all (or so Galv thought), so when Kain confronted Kanna...his dad would be there!

Then Galv could make his move...

-Narroh Manor-

“He had been coming after you...we didn't think he'd change his pattern...” Samuel sighed, shaking his head. “As for what we'll do...I'm going to beat him within an inch of his life for trying to take my son...”

Samuel's a bit overprotective.

-Streets-

“Hmmm...a house out in the country?” Maize said, “That might be a good place to start. Not as many people, for instance...do you have a car we could use?”

“The Aristocratic council has the power. They make the laws, they issue orders to the military police… simply being an Aristocrat is not enough. Sure, I have influence – and I AM using it. That’s why Section Three exists.”

She sighed, leaning back. “To really do what you’re suggesting would mean I’d need to go before the council, and that… well, that’s not exactly an easy thing to do. Unless I get my aunt’s support, the council likely won’t take me seriously.”

[Shady Building]

“I see…” The man said, looking down at his papers. “… I’ll do what I can, Rica, but finding someone like this, this quick… it won’t be cheap.”

Rica sighed. “I don’t care about the cost. Just do it.”

[Ice Cream Parlor]

“Hey Hammah! Welcome back.” Sama waved over to the blonde boy, as he looked back to the table.

"Again, you're the appointed heiress of your house. Over the heads of at LEAST two older sisters, barring any other relatives I haven't heard about. That's got to count for something, it's got to mean something. And as for your aunt...again, you clearly know her better than I do, but in my admittedly meager experience with her...as long as you get the job done and are willing to commit to the city's safety and stability...you can gain at least some approval from her."

He paused.

"Make no mistake, I'd guess she thinks Section III is a waste of time and resources...but still, I don't think this is worth giving up on..."

Kain's Car

The car went quiet for a few minutes, as the two drove along the countryside and back into town. Eventually the car stopped outside of the Narroh's gates.

"Come on, we're getting out." he told the boy, climbing out of the car and pulling Galv by the arm. "You're going to stay quiet and let me do the talking....Understand?"

Narroh Manor

"Well don't do anything until we find out about my daughter..." Kanna said.

Suddenly a maid came in, face looking pale. "M'am, there is someone at the gate....H-He looks like M-Master Kain"

Kanna stood up suddenly "Was Melanie with him?"

"No miss, j-just the young master Galv"



Streets

"I don't..." Jason said with a slight frown, before turning to a small grin "But I do know how to drive, so we could always steal one"

Jason wasn't usually a theif but he knew enough from hanging out in the slums that he could probably steal one.

Ice Cream Parlor

"I hope one day we're that rich!" Colette said with a giggle, pointing at the menu and the flavor she wanted. "Strawberry please!"

She then noticed Hammah walking in. Instantly the girl stood, rushing over to her brother and hugging him tightly. "You're okay!"

Sama had sat quietly at the table while the others went to get the ice cream. He had been deep in thought about something, and suddenly he jumped up and rushed over to the others.

“Hey, hey, I got an idea… something crazy… but something that might work well…”

[Car]

“Heiress,” Alice pointed out. “Not active head of the house. That’s Olivier.”

“Not active head of the house. That’s Olivier.”

"I acknowledge that, but still, it's gotta count for something...in fact, if you don't mind my asking, Malvin, how DID you get selected as the next head?" Didymus asked.

Alice let out a little sigh.

“It’s… complicated. Olivier won’t let my dad be the head of the house… she’d sooner shoot him… but at the same time, she has no children, so it had to be one of us.”

She paused. “My sisters, well… I don’t know why one of them wasn’t chosen. Maybe because Olivier respects me for joining the military? I don’t know.”

-Narroh Manor-

Samuel got up, looking to Kanna.

“...Let's go...”

Samuel headed out, to meet with Kain.



Galv just glared at Kain, though remained quiet, being dragged by him...

Soon...

-Streets-

“Steal a car huh?” Maize said, grinning, “I like that idea...”

She looked around, trying to find a car they'd be able to steal.

“Here we go...” Maize said, then popped off the door.

“Whoops...little too much there...” she chuckled.

-Ice Cream Palor-

“Yup, I'm fine!” Hammah told his sister Colette, then turned to Sama.

“An idea? What idea is that?”

Sama nodded once again, his face breaking into a small grin. This idea was… well, completely insane… he knew from experience…

“Okay. Remember what you guys said to me back in the slums?”

That was only a few minutes ago. Of course they do.

“Well… you were right. I shouldn’t be afraid of electricity… and neither should the rest of this town. We were right back in the day, trying to harness electricity instead of steam… and tonight at that party, I’m going to prove that!”

Sama was getting waaaaaay ahead of himself.

“We just need to show the Aristocrats that electricity is a better energy source… if we do that, we can forget all about this defense contract… Mr. Stark’s company will be the biggest in Hydron… we’ll usher in a new age! This… I mean, we could do this, right?”

"Wait, she won't LET your father be head of the house? And as for the military part...you see? That's how she can be reached."

He chuckled, and shook his head.

"I'm sorry. I don't mean to try...making light...of you family situation. And again, my studies of politics during training...made me think that of all the houses, and I know how much of a suck-up I will sound like, but, well...there was always, it appeared, a glimpse of honor about House Malvin. More so than the other houses, at least...and then, well, you already know what I think of you..."

No she doesn't. Not quite...

He kept silent about THAT.

"And hello...what have we here...?"

He looked out-two people, youths, their age or so by the looks, were attempting to...were they breaking into a car?

"Looks like we have a super-strength forcing open a car door...maybe it's theirs, but what say we check it out, Malvin? To protect and serve, right?"

(Yes, that's Jason and Maize. I can't just have Didymus and Alice stall in the car forever. XD)

KxS waited for Jimi to finish what might be the biggest order of ice cream in history. In the meantime, she listened to Sama introduce his idea. She smiled a little. She knew that electricity could be harnessed into energy and that he didn't have a very bad idea.

One thing that slightly irked her was that this might mean her and Avenger might go out of business, but she didn't say anything. Maybe they'd still make a little cash, though they didn't make a lot as it was.

The girl adjusted her glasses and just kept listening.

Avenger? He was too busy dreaming about chocolate chip cookie dough.


Shimera's Mansion

Shimera gleamed. "Sure!" she replied. This was gonna be so fun!

“A long time ago, my father and my aunt had a competition to see who would be the head of the house. My father had the birthright, but… well, he was no match for my aunt. Don’t get me wrong, my father is INCREDIBLE. He can bend a solid steel girder.”

She sighed. “But my aunt… well, you have no idea what she can do. She’s…”

Then, she trailed off, as suddenly Didymus was looking out of the car at people breaking into a car on the street. She frowned.

“… Better than the party.”


[Ice Cream Parlor]

Sama was still standing, hoping someone would agree with him... and starting to sweat.

Didymus paused.

"Yeah, I heard about that when we were studying governmental politics...I don't doubt that your aunt has an...iron constitution..."


“… Better than the party.”


Didymus chuckled.

"That's why I love-" he caught himself. "...our little escapades. Heh."

Dodged a bullet. Maybe.

He stopped the car, and stepped out, slinging his rifle over his shoulder, and opening the door for Alice (if she hadn't already stepped out).

"So, you want to handle this, or should I do the talking?"

".........Sama did you hit your head when you crashed with that suit?" Crystal asked, eyes off the menue for a moment to stare at her best friend. "It's near impossible to get people to even tolerate the use of electricity...It's only caused problems for most people...

"I think that's AMAZING!!!" Colette exclaimed, jumping up. "I mean why shouldn't people give something so great a chance?"

Colette didn't have the horrors of the element in her head, even if it was what took her parents away.

Narroh Manor

Kanna and the others met Kain at the gate of the estate, letting him in hesitantly. Kanna looked around for Melanie, but instead there was only Galv.

"Where's Melanie?" Kanna demanded, glaring at the man but staying back. Kanna was used to being knocked around by the man.

"Not here" Kain said with a grin, pushing Galv in front of him "But I did bring this one. He'll do for now right?"

Streets

Jason blinked when Maize ripped off the door....He tried not to question it, instead he bent down to hotwire the car...Which wasn't too hard considering the cars all ran off of steam.

"We'll bring it back later" he said, roaring off and heading out of time.

"I guess we'll start with our old vacation spots...Try our luck...."
