Urban Rivals

Lucy stayed behind the girl with a good distance. She kept the knives out of her view, too.
Sarah cautiously spoke. "Yeah, sure. We're like Sherlock Holmes, and you're an important witness. Could you tell us some stuff?"

The little girl put a finger on her chin. "Mmmm... like, about those archdemons that were here?" then, she covered her mouth. "Ooops!"

Nero's eyes widened. "Archdemons?!" he stepped forward. "Tell us what you know, now!"

The girl shook her head. "I don't waaaanna!" she cried out.

"Tell us!" his voice was a yell, now.

The girl recoiled a bit. "Well... I'll be willing to tell you... if you race me!"

Michael, who has been watching from the background, face palms. "OK, this is so ridiculous that I'm getting pissed. I'm heating up. I need to blow off steam. I'll race her, but don't expect me to win, since she probably has a Speed lateral or something considering her choice of challenge."

"Race?" Sarah asked. "If Michael doesn't think he can win, then... If you give me a moment to warm up, then I'll race you," Sarah replied. "What sort of race do you mean?" This girl is weird...

"Race? Why do you wanna race? Can't you tell us now?"Tailisu asked the mysterious girl. He saw that Nero got agitated when he learned that the two guys were archdemons so this probably couldn't wait. Just who is she and which side is she on?

"Listen, baka." Virgil said. A sword appeared in his hand. "I dunno what an archdemon is, but really bad things are going to happen if you don't tell us, and we really don't have time for a race. Can't you just tell us and assumed we'll do it after?"

OOC: In other words, can't we just go kill stuff?

The girl tapped her chin. "Mmm... alright then. I guess I won't tell you where they are~"

Nero had enough. Bringing up his hand, he made to blast a fireball at the girl. It was a small one, to explode in front of her.

"Aah!" she let out a scream, jumping back. "Hey, meanie!"

Nero, balled his fists. "I'm not in the mood for games. At all!"

The girl stood still, before smiling. She let in a deep breath, before letting off a raspberry. Nero could swore he felt his eye twitch. Even from behind his mask, he was frowning deeply.

The girl then took off into a run. They could only guess that there would be no race.

"What a pain."

"I got this! Stand back, I'm from the internet!" Virgil said. He spread his arms, and about twenty swords and knives fell out. He then went over to a motorized shopping cart. He unzipped his jacket, and lifted his shirt. A gaping maw appeared on his stomach, with black tentacles coming out. Virgil's eyes turned totally white as it stretched and distended to fit the machine in.
"Alright, now we're riding in style!" Virgil said, his legs having turned into wheels as he sped after the girl.

Ella didn´t say anything as she saw all this happen, she simple stretched her legs out. Her feet began to change shape slowly taking the form of roller blades, with a combustion engine on the back of each foot. "I don´t know what the point in this is but I´ll give it a try." she nodded her head before fls started coming out of the engine and she sped off.

Asilla and Dawn ran for the others.

With the others later that day.....

Asilla saw smoking ground. "Nero..... You idiot." Dawn said as she was attempting to punch him. "NOT TO A LITTLE KID!!!" she said, as she punched him in the jaw.

@Leavanny; (Good work, I was seriously going to time skip my next post.)

The punch only made the boy reel his head, shaking off easily as he looked away. "Not my fault she was stalling."

They were still within the mall, walking to find a different path. The group had settled within a food court. Nero had decided to sit down, but the others... well, the food wouldn't eat itself.

"Help me with this, will you?" Virgil said, lugging a barrel of iron oxide towards a tub of aluminum powder.

Water has never tasted so glorious. Tailisu was thinking that as he gulped down a bottle of water, he felt better already. He was smiling but then his face took on a confused look when he saw Virgil carrying who-knows-what to a tub filled with some type of powder. "..Are you gonna drink that with your stomach?" He asked him which makes sense in context.

Asilla went to Nero. "Next time, stay alert. Dawn can get really mad really fast." she said to him as she sat down, and started to eat. Dawn did the same, giving Nero a death glare.

"Baka. I'm making thermite." Virgil said, eating some pocky.
