"Yes," Jericho answered simply.
Being silent and allowing her control social matters seemed to be wise as well.

She would make a couple of blips on her PT and search for a way to contact her King and it would be sent ringing. With her free hand, while it rang, she mused her air and some dust from her shoulders, chest, and aching gullet from that woman's strike. Trying to make herself somewhat better presentable.
And it was ringing...

After a few moments there would be an all too familiar voice.
"Ah, Miss Price. I pray your investigation is going well, for I do so abhor failure..."
He would say with a cold smile.

"Good Afternoon, my King," she gave a salute and bowed her head. "Not all is according to plan but we are succeeding in our endeavors this far. While Drake was no longer at the Brothel. The Madam was of no help but a woman by the name of Angelina aided us in another lead heading to the Lightning Tower with another Sudeki. We are here now waiting for Drake to come from the higher levels were we are not permitted to pass. It is but a matter of time now, Your Highness." She would end her report and await his response.

Rai raised an eyebrow.
"The Madam? I thought Aryn died in the war... I'm quite surprised to hear she is alive."
He would wave his hand.
"No matter, I'll deal with that matter later. Anyways, where are you now? How close are you to accomplishing your mission?"

"Heading to the third pass of the Lightning Tower, unfortunately we can do not else but wait for Drake to come down from the higher levels. Our diplomatic credentials permit us no further access. Forgive me for not being able to do more. We are progressing as quickly and efficiently as we are able." As she had mentioned before, but she wasn't going to say that to him. She was surprised about his response to the Madam of that place. It was of no coincidence that there might have been a past they shared and it wasn't a pleasant one.

"So, you are still on the main floors. That makes sense."
He would sigh.
"Too bad I was almost excited. I thought you were about to tell me you found put how to get to Leon's suite. But, it is understandable that you were unable. Seeing as how it floats above the Tower."
He would smile again.
"It really is a sight to behold. I highly recommend going and seeing for yourself, it is quite the sight."
However, this then made Rai run his chin in curiousity.
"Tell me. You said Drake is on the upper floors? I'm curious as to why my dearest uncle would've called him up there for... tell me, have you discovered the reason for his presence at the Tower?"

"We shall do as you request." She would say to his suggestion of enjoying the view.
"It is unclear, My King, Angelina mentioned Drake left with Spike Sudeki." She would lower her head. "That is all I know Regrettably. According to the guards at the gate however the upper and lower parts are completely disconnect from contact."

Rai would begin to laugh!
"Ah! So that bastard survived after all! Excellent. Well, that makes sense."
He would chuckle for a few more minutes before going back to talking to Dime.
"Yes, if you could see the upper floors you would understand. The life styles between the two floors is so drastically different. One last suggestion. Find an empty room to sleep for the night. I guarantee they won't be down till tomorrow afternoon. At the earliest. Well, if that is all. I've got other business to attend to."
Before she could respond he would hang up. Now answering his other call.

"As you wish--" and she was cut short. No matter she would turn to Jericho and see what he thought. "At least his spirits were high... That recommendation to staying the night has me a bit disheartened however." She really hoped this would have been over much sooner.

Jericho would look at her after watching over her shoulder throughout the whole conversation. "Yes. It is not desirable," he would respond to her.
"One of us should rest while the other remains awake. When was the last time you slept? And for how long did you sleep?" he would ask to assess the situation.

I slept admirably through the previous night. I can take first half if you'd like." She would suggest.

"Okay." Jericho nodded and walked into a room. He laid down on the bed inside, flat on his back, and closed his eyes.

And She would make her way up to this "View" that Raikotsu was mentioning. Heading to the top floor and started taking off her soldier garb the pain was incredible and the layers were tight and it was hard to breathe. Once at the top she would check to see if anyone else was there... If there were none she would actually unbutton the shirt and peer at the black and blue bruise that was spreading across down the middle of her torso and abs. She was lucky the woman knew how to kick with the ball of her foot while in heels or Dime might have gotten stabbed too If there were people she would just undo the lower buttons and feel the bruise across her fingers. She ached and winced, she wasn't sure she could remember getting kicked so badly but then again...
She shook her head she needed to let go of a silly dream and move on. She looked to the sky and with the inaccessible part of the Lightning Tower far above. Dime wondered if this was one of many paths Raikotsu walked and saw with his own eyes. Was he reminiscing in a sweet memory when Dime told him where she was? The Cold-Blooded King might still have those moments of course. She would handle this night at this moment.

The following day the two still wouldn't have heard or seen anything of Drake even despite it already being becoming late afternoon. But after a short while there would be some commotion outside. However, before either could check to see what was happening someone would burst into the room they were in. "Hey! The newbie is sparring in the yard with some of Veteran Guards! I heard he is a beast, if you still wanna get in on the bets now is the time!" Then the guy was gone just as quickly as he had a appeared delivering that message to the next room and so on. The two would then notice that he wasn't the only one running down stairs, but almost everyone inside the tower seemed to want to catch sight of this spectacle! If the two would follow they would make it a courtyard of sorts and the place was CROWDED, they would have to make their way through the crowd just to see what was happening. The sound of punching unmistakable however. It would take a short moment to make it to the front where they would see a young man with his back to them looking down at the people on the ground rolling in pain. He would turn around and smile raising his arms. "Alright! Who's next? I'm still warming up!" The crowd would be cheering and going crazy! |
