(PP-F4-NK) Kindling Passion <<EaL>>

[SeaGaul 0]

Victoria adjusted her grip on the handle of her curved sword as she waited by the exit of the fourth floors main settlement and safezone. She needed to get a single material to be able to start her profession, but the truth was that she was a bit nervous about leaving the safe zone at all. She was a prospective business major, not a gamer like her sister or a fighter like her old roommate. She glanced around again. It was middday, and snowing as usual, and she couldnt help but wonder if any of the passerby would offer to help her or at least ask her why she was just standing inside of the safezone holding a starter weapon like she was going to beat someones head in with it. Perhaps it was the crude way that she was holding the weapon that was alienating her from the other players? Or maybe they just didnt care.

Once again the wintry weather was upon her as she shivered uncomfortably in the snow as she looked about as she particularly despised this floor thanks to the weather. "Why must it always be snowing here," she sighed both her arms quickly wrapped about her body as she walked forward in her normal one piece dress. It wasn't the proper location to be travel with the type of wardrobe she was capable of selecting form today. Kindle then blinked now seeing another woman who stood there menacingly with her blade pointed toward the sky, the oddity of seeing a girl of her apparent nature just standing with her blade was rather peculiar. "Hello there," the yellow eyed female asked the monochromatic colored one. "Are you working as a living statue or something?"

Victoria turned to face the newcomer who immediately greeted her with a snarky comment. "No, im not, thank you for asking." She replied as politely as she could, heat starting to build in her gut as her anger awoke. She held it in, and hid it from showing though. Even rude people could be useful, and many were rude because they thought that they were better than others. That sort of cockiness often meant that they had lots of materials, col, or were a high level. She sheathed her sword, placing her hands on her hips sassily. "I was just about to head out and get some materials for a quest, not that it should matter to you."

Kindle blinked taken back by the sassy attitude that now was being sported by the female before her, rather shocked that such an innocent figure had so much fire. She herself had a fire, although she sometimes failed to express the fiery passion that others were capable of. She  now craned her head to the side as she pondered what she was thinking uncertain of what she really was planning to do today. "I could use more material I suppose although I would want payment if I find them and give them to you instead." Stretching out as she closed her eyes contemplating whether or not she should be demanding more as she was in some power. "Do you have much col?"

Victoria stared at the woman as she offered to help get her materials in return for col. Victoria would never pay someone to do something that she could so easily herself, especially in the amount that the other woman was bound to ask for. If she had any col that is. Strangely enough she hadnt acquired any in the time that she had been in this game. "No, i dont have much, and even if I did I wouldnt give it to you." She stated, gripping the handle of her now sheathed curved sword. "Of course, you could always help me fom the goodness of your heart, and I might owe you a favor then..." She suggested with a smirk.

Kindle thought on this, "I prefer something tangible, but I suppose your favor could be your assistance from this point on as a support in battle or on future quests as I'm always in need of more assistance while upon my journey in this world. You don't have a house or anything by any chance or a shop, or perhaps this is your earn a living quest which case you are up the same creek as I am as I have done it but I don't want to deal with the hassle of owning my own shop. It's quite tiresome to continuously be dealing with the business side of a corporation and I really don't want to deal with the money handling that is why I've been gathering assistants to assist in starting up our own big shop of sorts I guess. At least we would be if we ever were working on that."

"Im sorry, but it would be idiotic on my part to agree to a deal that ill help you with any future battle or quest, just in return for gathering a few materials." She stated. The positive benefits she would get from that proposed deal were heavily out balanced by the negatives. "As it happens this is my earning a living quest, but unlike you, im not in the same situation as you. In the real world I was two years into my business major, so I understand how that sort of thing works." She paused for a moment. "Now, if your going to help me get some materials, in return for a single favor of equivalent value, please do. However, if you wish to continue proposing heavily unbalanced deals, or just want someone to be your verbal punching bag, please leave." She stated seriously.

Kindle sighed and nodded, "Very well, I can see that you are not an idiot unlike the other men and women that I try to sucker into deals. I can help you gather materials an exchange for my one favor I will make a proposition where we can call upon one another or you could let me sleep in your shop free of charge and in exchange I will assist in the business to the best of my ability. Perhaps future material gathering with you or simply just cleaning it up once in a while to make sure that it stays spotless so people enjoy the mere presence of it when they walk in. As a spotless shop is necessary for any person who wishes for good advertisement from word of mouth." Kindle said now sliding up her own hips rocking in against the mysterious business woman as she looked at her still partially intrigued.

Victoria nodded slowly to the other woman, although she did raise an eyebrow. "Why would you want to sleep in my shop when you could just sleep in yours?" She queried. The deal was a good one, and she certainly wouldnt mind letting the young woman sleep in her shop, she just didnt understand why, and as such she was suspicious of the proposed deal, just because it sounded so good. "Ill accept your deal, on the condition that you keep the mobs away and protect me for the short time were outside of the safe zone." She said, not mentioning that the reason for this was that she didnt have any skill points in her weapon.

Kindle now leered over her curious to why a woman like her with her quick wit would need someone of her ability as a fighter. She thought over it for a few seconds before a shrug rolled over her shoulder before nodding, "Although I will only sleep there when I am feeling lazy enough to not just stay at someone else's pace." She spoke casually as she enjoyed messing with people and popping by to their abodes when they least expect it. For now Kasier's shop was her near permanent sleeping corridor as well as a possible business partner if she was remembering correctly. She then looked around, "On one condition I can't actually fight anything yet as I still haven't allocated my own stats so I don't do anything as I'm a martial artist in training." As the deal was sealed she no would ruin her end for the time being as she was stuck with her useless self. "I hope you can actually fight off the mobs because I will just leave." A wicked grin across her features.

So neither of them had any fighting skills? This didnt sound good. They wouldnt be able to defend themselves if they came across a mob. She frowned. "Im a transporter, not a fighter." She stated, making sure that the other woman knew that she couldnt protect them if they came across an enemy. "Lets just run out and grab a material so that I can get this quest done. Just going out and straight back in so that we dont run into any enemies." She stated, explaining exactly what the gameplan was. She was sure that neither one of them wanted to die, so it was best that they played it as safe as possible.

Kindle merely nodded by the comment of the white haired women's analysis on the current situation. It wasn't safe for newbies like themselves to head out without any type of bodyguard or weapon. "I suggest once we see anything nearby we make a quick sprint away from it. Else I will gladly leave you behind to be a meal to the pet." Kindle wasn't about to lie to someone as beautiful as her, but she also wasn't going to let her own neck be risked while she was out meaning if she would live by tossing her to the wolves she would. "Rest assured if we aren't in danger then I will drag you as fast a possible." Her straightforwardness was the only reassuring part of her comments right now.

Victoria frowned to the other woman. She certainly didnt sound very reliable or helpfull. She wasnt even sure why she was bothering to go out of the safezone with someone who couldnt protect her and was bound to tun off at the first sign of danger. She walked out of the border, glancing around the surrounding area for anulything that could be used as a material, but not finding anything. She glanced back at the other woman before sighing and sending her a party and a friend request. All she needed was one material and she could go back in where it was safe and warm, and start making progress with her business. She was already bored with material hunting, she wasnt sure how other people did it as a job.

Kindle yawned once more a bit disinterested in their search for materials that this lady beside her needed, why exactly was she helping the rather sassy girl? Stopping in her tracks she glanced about the floor to see a lack luster amount of interesting foliage upon the ground. "Eh I don't see anything I think it's about time to head back and rest probably." She stated calmly stretching her limbs out from side to side bored as neither this quest or girl seemed to entertain her fully.

Victoria frowned, staring at the annoying person who was accompanying her. This woman was annoying as hell. "I dont know why im out here with you. You arent even doing anything but bothering me and complaining!" She exclaimed as she continued to look around for materials, trying to ignore the other woman as much as possible. She certainly wasnt about to pay the woman for following her around and complaining, she had better find some materials or start being a bit politer. Victoria was actually debating whether or not to find a weak mob to attack, but quickly decides better of it. She wanted a few level ups before she actually fought anyone or anything.

Kindle blinked rather taken back now as she was so harshly attacked by her traveling companion. "I didn't realize I was so useless to you don't even have a reason to stick with me. Would you rather I leave you here to die then for the wolves or would you like my assistance but if you don't like my attitude I do apologize as I'm always like this ... not sure why." As she stopped to look for more materials she sighed realizing that this was a hopeless cause.
