Kimi

"Nice work Hestia." Kimi said as she watched her stun both of the remaining pirates and bade them bleed also. "Lets see if i can get this stun train going." Kimi said very happily. She looked back to see how Kairi was going and said, "Feel free to jump in anytime, but i'm pretty sure we got this now." She said with a very friendly and cheerful grin. As she started running towards the more healthier pirate that stood stunned along side his remaining partner. While she was running thought Kimi completely embarrassed herself as she ended up slipping on the deck of the ship. Kimi quickly picked herself up off the deck with her face red from embarrassment and backed off trying to hide herself. "Sorry about that, you can go ahead and attack." She said very nervously as she was being clumsy and not watching where she was going.

"Darn, I should've used that." Kimi said towards Ryo as she tried to think of another joke to make of the Banshee. "Should've said 'see you around' as it dissipated." Kimi said in response to Ryo's joke. Kimi thought about what Hestia said with her being a 'great finder of stuff' "Well i can certainly try to look for one, but no promises." Kimi whipped out the magnifying glass that Ryo let her barrow earlier on when they went to search for the banshee lair. Some time passed as she went around examining the area, Kimi mostly just casually went down the corridor to another room where she assumed was where the banshee originally rested as there were some stone like beds lining the walls. "Well if anything there should be something in this room." Kimi said as she began searching. During her search Kimi discovered that at one of the stone beds had a button engraved into the pictures that were caved into the base of it. As she pressed it, the bed that it was connected to collapsed revealing another set of stairs leading downwards. "Look what I found guys!" Kimi said excitedly.

Kimi ran up to the Banshee that avoided her nearly the entirety of the fight. "Alrighty then you old hag time to un-undead you." She said being silly. The banshee finally got used to the song that Kimi played, but it still had a hard time maintaining its phased look. Kimi gathered whatever energy she had and attempted to finish off the banshee with one solid punch. As she ran towards the banshee, it seemed to try to flicker out of the way or at least move, but the effects of the song were still in effect and left her wide open. Kimi cocked her arm back and punched the banshee straight in its ghostly face making it turn to pixels and disappear. She relaxed her shoulders finally and looked back at the two of her companions and said with a satisfying sigh, "Well now... Thats out of the way and we don't get the money. Want to explore this prison or get out?" Kimi said as she dusted herself off.

Kimi held up her hand to the light that peeked through her window. "mmhmhmhmmm" She grumbled at the morning. "Just let me sleep a little more." She said in a mumble voice. As she picked herself up out of her her bed Fran walked in, "Morning Mistress. Ready to get your day going?" She asked casually. "Yeahhhh. I guess could you fix me something while I do my daily craft?" Kimi said as she made her way down her stairs to her studio. Kimi wasn't much of a morning person, but at least she got out of bed. Crafting didn't take long as this was normal for her, but she did want to make her way to rank 5

The thieves were dealt with quickly in a very clean and orderly fashion. "Well that didn't last long." Kimi said shrugging. "Wonder what those guys were up to trying to rob us. Weird monsters those ones." Kimi said towards the others in a curious and joking way. As the group shrugged off what just happened like it was a normal day occurrence. Along the way to the town Kimi found a chest "Hey any of you want to open this?" Kimi was excited, but at the same time wanted to help pick up the mood for everyone so she let them open it. It wasn't long until the group made their way into Nimbus and started on their way to somewhere relatively safe from unwanted ears and held a particular comfort. When the group settle in Teion finally lowered her guard and hoped up her walls just enough to get what needed to be said out. After Teion finished with her lengthy story Kimi had to ask, "Hmm... So who was it that saved you? You don't have to answer if you don't want to, but I need to know so I can help more." She was generally curious, but she wanted to know a bit more in case the information would help. "Well regardless. Teion i'm here if you need help." She said in a very calm and understanding manner.

Kimi said towards Kairi, "Its alright Hestia and I can finish off the rest of them. Just save up some energy and jump back into the fight when its starts to look bad." Kimi slightly snapped out of her depressive self as she finally finished off the annoying pirate officer, but she knew that there were more to come. This was just one of many that might be around. Kimi slightly smiled at Hestia jokingly complementing her at getting rid of the pirate officer also. Even though the pirates were down a man, but more specifically an officer they still didn't stop their assault. With that in mind Kimi quickly gathered energy to use the same attack she had finished off the previous opponent. Unlike the officer Kimi didn't have to chase this grunt around the deck to fight. "Looks like you guys are out of practice. How about you go for a swim." Kimi said as she knocked one of the pirates into the water.  The jokes she told came out slightly forced as she was still under the effects of the negative thoughts that flooded her mind.

As what Kimi said was done and finished, tensions within the air subsided for the meantime leaving each and everyone person to their thoughts. The quiet sounds of the night slowly overtook what tension was left as the group readied themselves for the journey back. The clear moonlit sky paved a path through the dark of night for them to travel as the cold bitter wind nibbled at those who weren't accustomed to it.

Kimi was content traveling quietly down the mountainside, but just as she thought everything was going well she heard quick rapid movements coming from some shrubbery nearby. Before she could react a bight light suddenly flashed at them then made its way to focus on a single shadowy silhouette that blocked the path. "Prepare for trouble!" The figure said. Following that another similar light did the same and pointed to a figure right beside the first. "And make it double." Kimi at this point was confused at what was going on. "Was this some sort of secret event?" She questioned herself. The two figures then continued a dialog that Kimi herself wasn't in the slightest interested as she was still trying to make sense of the encounter. Just when the two finished their dialog, they made it clear they were looking for a fight. Kimi quietly said under her breath, but still audible to her companions, "The f*ck?"

Kimi was too focused to bother listening to her companions and too busy trying to ignore the voice in her head also. As Kimi came back into reality from trying to ignore the negative and doubtful voice in her head she looked back at Boarswain Jessamine. "You gonna try at me again missy? You're only going to get hurt." the pirate officer said in a very taunting tone. The already frustrated redhead ignored her taunts, but continued forwards with her assault on her. Kimi gathered energy to her right fist as she charged directly at Jessamine determined to put her into the ground. As she repeated the events of chasing Jessamine around Kimi saw an opening while she was dodging and got Jssamine to back up into one of the other pirates. When that happened Kimi finally got a hit off on her instantly making Jessamine vanish into the air.

Kimi just finished her attempts at crafting each and every one of her songs turned to be failures except two. Even if two were crafted only one was basically usable in Kimi's eyes. "Well this is just unfortunate." Kimi said under her breath with a heavy sigh. "Guess things can't always work your way. Maybe I should invest more into crafting I might get what I want." She continued as she cleaned up her studio and retired to her room. Kimi put away the actually songs that managed to maintain its integrity and threw away the others that just went 'potato'.

Seeing how the two attempts at attacking the banshee failed Kimi tried to think of a way around it. In the midst of the battle Kimi remembered that she recently crafted some songs that make it easier for herself as well as her companions hit an opponent. With that in mind she quickly went through her inventory for a recording crystal. "Here Ryo this will help with the fight." She said as she flashed the crystal at him. As she played it the corridor hummed with music from the recording crystal, but this wasn't something pleasant. For herself as well as those around her she didn't want to be affected this did nothing to them, but for the banshee it wailed. The banshee began to cover its ghostly ears in order to stop the song, but nothing helped. "Here now's your chance. The banshee is vulnerable." Kimi said to Hestia and Ryo in a strong tone.

Kimi laughed at how the two of them reacted to each other. Kimi placed a hand on Hesita's shoulder and said in a jokingly, but reassuring way, "Don't worry Hestia. You're plenty relaxed from what i've noticed." The two of them really looked like good friends from what she understood which made her say, "Well you say that lots of people came here alone, but ended up finding a partner or a good friend. It looks like you two are pretty close." Kimi said in a teasing manner to both Hestia and Itzal. Kimi thought for a moment before saying. "Now that I think about it I've only known Hestia for a short while, but we've already got a lot of quests done together and what not." She said to Itzal before continuing. "I guess you can say Hestia is a sort of mentor in a way also considering how much she helped me." Once Itzal mentioned how he also has a familiar, but more specifically a dragon, Kimi's eyes brightened? "What?! I didn't know you could get a dragon?"

@Itzal @Hestia

Kimi agreed with Hestia as she mentioned that she didn't want to mess with Jomei and Tel being all cute together at the dance. Kimi scratched the back of her ear giving a  nervous laugh as she said to Itzal, "Well yeah this is a event for couples, but I came here alone." Kimi paused for a brief moment as she stared at the ground and back up at Hestia. "I came here just for fun since this is my first event. Maybe after the event ends we can all go for a quest or something if you like. If you didn't know i'm actually quite new. Recently I've been rushing myself to improve so I can catch up to Hestia and my other friends." Kimi said with a friendly smile as she suggested for a little questing. Noodle came up from behind Kimi giving her a small scare, "Ohhh hey there Noodle." Kimi looked back at Itzal to introduce her familiar, "I know its probably weird dressing up familiars, but this is my little buddy. His name's Noodle, Hes a little shark doggo." Kimi said cheerfully.

@Itzal

"Well I hope this event went well for you as it has for us." Kimi said to Itzal in a friendly tone. Kimi laughed a little bit saying, "You know I was actully planning to trade partners with Jomei and Tel for dancing just for fun. I don't know I was kinda hoping more people would end up dancing, but Its alright. We all had fun anyways." Kimi continued to try to spark up small talk just to get to know Hestia's friends a little bit, this was actually a first for her to meet someone outside her own friend circle so she hoped it would go fine. "Anyways Itzal, I'm curious if you don't mind me asking. How did you get to know Hesta?" Kimi asked genuinely curious about Hestia's friends. Kimi let the question sit for a bit as she was unsure if this was alright to ask, but she honestly wasn't to sure what to say. So far everything this evening happened nicely and the event turned out great in her opinion. 

@Itzal

"Well im not too surprised that they ended up winning thought. They do look great together and from what I know we just happened to place second. The voting went fine and honestly I didn't expect us to do well." Kimi said slightly blushing now that she realized that she practically kissed Hestia in the middle of the whole dance floor. Kimi went up to Hestia's ear and said in a low tone embarrassed. "I feel like we got second place with that kiss." Kimi paused for a moment to see how Hestia would react. Kimi then turned her attention to the player that was with them and introduced herself. "Hi there, sorry for the random introduction. its a pleasure to meet another one of Hestia's friends." She said in a very calm and friendly manner. Kimi extended her hand to greet the other player. Before continuing some small talk. "So how do you find the event so far?" She said openly to the two of them.

@Itzal @Hestia

Kimi shied away a bit as Hestia planted a kiss on her cheek, "I'll join you i guess. I don't know too many people here so it would be a help if you could introduce me." Kimi said shyly as she hesitated to take Hestia's hand. Kimi walked side by side following Hestia to whomever she was going to see. Kimi spoke up as they went along in the ballroom, "Now that I think about it, I don't know too many people aside from our guildmates. I only really know maybe, two or three others. Sadly thought I don't go questing with either of them anymore. Its been sometime since I have at least since i've last seen them." Kimi paused for a moment to think of the last time she saw her friend Kaya who helped her when she was new before continuing. "How about you? do you know a lot of people aside from those in the guild?" Kimi asked 
@Hestia

Kimi has spent the past couple of days in her estate waiting for something to do at the same time not wanting to go out. After the events that happened with Hestia and Kairi on the pirate quest in the sixteenth floor she hasn't been one to want to go out as much. Noodle sat down by her side with his head on her lap as she sat in bed thinking of what she can do to kill time in her house. She went down to her studio to craft some songs in the meantime to begin her day of killing time.

Kimi heard what Hestia said and continued to focus down the pirate officer Jessamine, but still she wasn't able to get close. Kimi watched as Hestia took some damage from the pirate aggressors and was slowly going into a deep anger towards herself for being completely useless during the whole fight. "...GIVE UP..." The voice in her head grew louder as she failed to land a single hit on Jessamine. The voice in her head grew louder with each consecutive failing hit to the point she felt pain in her heart. "Keep that up and you'll just get yourself hurt luv." Jessamine said tauntingly at Kimi as she backed off to give space for Hestia and Kairi to attack, but also for her to gather her thoughts. Kimi tried to shake off the feeling of uselessness that was overwhelming her, but her doubts and insecurities kept rising as the voice seemed more and more right.

Kimi watched as the second Undead guard fell to Ryo's blade, "Nice work." She said with a bit of light in her eyes. Kimi had gained a bit of hope now that they can focus mainly on the banshee that was before them. She watched as the Banshee rushed for a quick attack on to Hestia only to be warded off slightly by Hestia's thorn enchantments. "Well at least we know we can hurt it." Kimi thought silently to herself. Quickly as Hestia said it was her turn to do something she made an attempt to attack, but couldn't quite 'catch' the Banshee. "The hell is this?" Kimi said slightly confused and frustrated as she couldn't keep up with how the monster moved about the corridor. She moved back a bit to give space for her companions to try making an attempt at the banshee as she failed once again to strike it.

I watch as the pirates fail to hurt Hestia with their attacks, "Well this is turning out better than I hoped." Kimi thought to herself as she prepared to attack with her All Might ability. Kimi wasn't sure for whom to focus her attacks on, but when one particular pirate started barking orders at the obvious grunts she knew that she had to focus that one pirate down. As she gathered energy to perform her All Might ability. The pirate officer proved to me more nimble than she thought and ended up missing her attack. Kimi let out a heavy sigh of frustration as she stepped back away from the pirates so she wouldn't be in the way of her companions. "Well i sure messed that up." Kimi muttered to herself. As she said that a voice slowly crept back in her mind. "...WORTHLESS..." Kimi shook her head trying to focus more on her battle than her own well being.

Kimi stood still analyzing her thoughts until Hestia came to her side, held her hand, and talked to her in a low tone that whatever happened on the boat wasn’t her fault. Kimi listened contently and nodded before saying, “No need to explain, just give me some time.” She said back focusing on the ground. She paused for a little while gathering her thoughts and feelings, but disregard them and glanced towards the pirates who were enjoying themselves. Kairi and Hestia then went went on to mention the pirates and the plan to which she said with a very forced smile, “Well let’s just go with whatever works I guess.” Kimi said trying to add to the conversation. “Whatever gets the job done, right now it looks like just grunts. I don’t see any big baddies.” Kimi said in a slightly low tone. Kimi looked at the ship and the pirates on it to make sure she didn’t miss anything, but it looks like only normal deckhands were just manning the ship as of now.

Just as Jomei mentioned her wound Kimi shrugged it off intently trying to get at what the condition of her companions are.”It’s really fine. These things will happen and as long as everyone is fine, I’m fine.” Kimi said in a very reassuring voice. Just as Kimi turned to check on Hestia, she bursted out talking to sternly with a hint of anger at Teion. Kimi’s worry began to rise as she really wanted to talk about this under a more calm situation, but because the two orange players did a number on them by themselves Kimi could understand Hestia’s reasoning. She put her hand on Hestia’s shoulder while still grasping her stomach, “Hestia, I know it was bad, but just think for a minute what Teion might’ve been dealing with? For all we know there’s a lot she’s carrying on her shoulder and I don’t wish to add more to it.” Before Kimi could finish calming Hestia down Teion broke into the conversation explaining herself. Kimi glanced at Teion really wishing she could’ve finished calming Hestia before going to her explanation. While this happen Kimi looked back at Jomei giving him a concerned look for assistance. 

Once Teion finished and said it was best for her to get going Kimi staggered forward to stop her. Noodle caught wind of the tension in the air and through the bond he shared with Kimi, he also went to stop Teion. Kimi place her hand on Teion forearm and said with a slightly forced smile, “W-wait, don’t go just yet.” Noodle walked up from under Kimi and placed his paw on Teions foot looking up at her with his gleaming puppy like eyes. “It’s not your fault. We should’ve been more careful and had someone on lookout.” Kimi tried to reason, “Also I shouldn’t have let my emotions get ahead of me and I should’ve thought more about my actions before putting myself in danger.” Kimi tried her best to comfort Teion as she really was worried for her since when they first met. Kimi continued in a more sincere and calm voice. “Next time we will just have to take extra precautions. For now let’s just sit and talk about it. I know you’re not comfortable right now, but I WANT to help you. I know there’s something more to this and you could use as much help as you can.” Kimi looked back at Hestia as she mentioned helping Teion. Kimi looked down at the ground gathering her thoughts to find the right thing to say. She felt a bit off giving such comforting words since they weren’t close, but she honestly wanted to help her. “Look... I know we just met and you most likely don’t consider me a friend, but at least let me hear everything you’ve been carrying on your shoulder this whole time. Since we’ve started this quest chain you’ve been stiff, but I saw someone cheerful under that shell when Noodle went after you for your cookie.” Kimi said looking down at Noodle and gaving a small chuckle. Kimi paused for a while to let what she said sink in and made sure Teion wouldn’t go running off. She then muttered one word in a low comforting tone, “Please.”

Kimi went home for a bit to change into more comfortable clothing making sure it is as stylish as it was comfortable. The reason for this was since Hestia did invite her to an after party also since she might as well look good for Hestia if she can get the chance. After a bit of time she finally settled down with a nice brown coat to go ever her matching faded black shorts and stockings with a somewhat lose fitting navy blue top. “Well best I get going now, don’t wanna keep everyone waiting on me.” Kimi told herself looking down at Noodle for a response. Kimi laughed a bit at Noodle who was still sporting his tuxedo and said, “Here let’s get out out of that strangle suit.” Kimi wrapped a bright red scarf around Noodles neck gestured for him to walk beside her to the party. 

Kimi took some time trying to find her way to the party, but eventually she made it. As she entered she noticed that most of everyone was already around. “Whoops guess we’re kinda late.” Kimi said with a nervous smile looking down at Noodle. She waved as she entered the room scanning for Hestia who invited her. Now that everyone was out of their dresses and suits, it was fairly easy for her to find Hestia and she made her way over. “Heyyo Hestia! Sorry to keep you waiting, hope you didn’t wait long.” Kimi said with a very kind smile and a slight blush as they were officially together. She offered a hug to her with Noodle wanting a bit of the hugging. 

Kimi went home after a long day out playing with Noodle and testing her new gear. As she dragged her tired feet up her patio steps Fran opened the door, "Good evening mistress care for diner?" She asked in a elegant tone. Kimi waved her hand in a dismissive way and said, "Tea is fine, you should make one for yourself too." Kimi said in a very kind manner gesturing to the seat beside her. After sometime Fran came back with a tray with two cup and a teapot. Kimi told Fran about her day and the two talked a little bit about occurring events. After sometime Fran spoke up, "Ohh its a new day. You best get some sleep before morning comes." As Kimi stood up to make her way to her bedroom, she passed by her studio to make her daily crafts.

As the group was getting along well during their break the floor began to quake harshly. Bit and pieces of the dirt and clay ceiling fell down, but nothing to serious happened aside from witnessing Spencer become dumbfounded as Ryo held on to him for balance. It wasn't long until the shaking stopped and it seemed everyone was questioning what that was about. Spencer and Hestia made a good guess as to what that may be saying it was probably the boss of the floor. With that said Kimi grew a bit concerned with having Spencer around, especially since this might be a bit to difficult for him. Kimi looked back towards Ryo and said, "Well if it is the boss man of the dungeon, we better get moving before he makes another quake. I don't want the get tunneled in." walked about scanning the walls to see if there was indeed a chance for them to get tunneled in, but so far nothing presented itself. Then again she can never be too sure, and wouldn't want to wait to find out. She sat back down waiting for the others to catch their breath and recover.

After Jomei managed to free Kimi with his familiar she fell to one knee letting out a small grunt of frustration that she let herself get caught and nearly killed. The following moments that transpired happened in a quick and orderly fashion as Jomei and Teion took charge of the assassins in a swift action. Though everyone was now on more or less equal grounds the assassins knew that they were at a disadvantage and escaped. Kimi let out a sigh of frustration, "Wish we could've caught at least one of them to get a bit of information." She looked towards Noodle and pat him on the head saying, "Thanks for the save buddy. Might not be around if you didn't help." Kimi didn't forget to thank Adere who helped her get out of the mans hold. "Thank you too." She said with a weak smile giving a small appreciative nod. Kimi held on the the area where she had been grazed feeling a bit uneasy. "Are you two alright?" Kimi asked looking at both Teion and Hestia disregarding her own wound. Kimi picked herself up after she finally calmed down a bit.
