"DAMN IT, COME BACK HERE ASSHOLE! I WILL LITERALLY FUCK YOUR INSIDES OUT! WHEN I GET FINISHED..." Eva stops mid sentence, quickly regaining her composure when she notices all the attention she's attracted. "Alright, new plan. Leave this dump, find a full leather body suit, comeback and kick that prick's ass" Finally, Eva notices the guards and hears the doll trying to rat her out. "Unbelievable! Fine, if the doll wishes to play things that way..."
Using her magic, she begins to enchant the guards. "Oh my, thank goodness! Two big and powerful guards have come to my aid! I don't know what happened! Those 3 students and I were having a polite conversation, and this maniac doll rushed at as with whatever that scary beeping thing was! He handed it to me, and that assho-I mean hero electrocuted it! I know that two big strong men like yourselves would never allow such harm to come to such an innocent and frail girl as I"

Cliff tries to shove Reymnodo back but doesn't really do much more than stand in front of the man. He swiftly slides one of his hands into the the Reys pockets and grabs the first item he can find. He pulls forth a smooth item of sorts - an Aura Quartz Link that shimmers a soft blue hue - and pockets the item.
Despite being sneaky about it Selene can hear the soft hum of the device and as she looks to the source of the humming she sees the doll put something in his pocket.
The guards take a moment to stare at Eva. The expression of one of them seems to almost immediately change. - He's definitely fallen for her charm. The other however seems a little unsure, albeit looking more relaxed than before.
"Yes of course." the charmed guard says as he looks over to the doll somewhat confused. "What kind of doll are you anyway, did they break you or something? We'll need to bring this one back to Hall A." The other Guard, the relaxed one, scratches the back of his head. "Wait. Are you sure? It looked like she was the one that dropped the device." He goes to pick up the broken pipe bomb, wary of it possibly exploding anyway.
At this point one of the male students watching nearby steps up next to the guards. "Dudes, I saw it. She was completely innocent." - Seems like her charm has worked its magic on some of the outlaying people as well. He continues explaining: "That doll totally kept harassing Ser Donnadieu's Son when him and the girl were just having a chat!" Then another student - a girl this time - steps up besides him and lifts a finger towards the guards. "That's not true at all! She threatened to kill everyone!"
The two students quickly begin to argue with one another as the guards become more and more unsure of what to do. The various onlookers chatter between one another with some new passerby's stopping to check out the commotion. This is the second time in two days that Reymondo is in a situation like this and Kaavi pinches the bridge of her nose in frustration.

Selene waves her hands around to get stop Rey from patting her. "Ugh I'm not a freaking dog damnit!" She again fixes her hair. Rey walks forward seemingly mesmerized by the girl now talking to the guards. "Okay?" She says rather confused. She follows behind so she doesn't lose site. Him being the only person she knows here. As they cross the hall a strange creature comes up to Rey. Bumping into him then running over to the guards. "Did he?" Selene saw something. "He took something..." She whispers. Once Rey and the creature reach the guards Selene runs up to the creature. She stares at it. The thing being much taller than her. A moment passes and as the creature speaks she pokes it in the leg. "Excuse me?" She says in a kind yet passive aggressive voice. "Could you please give my friend back the item you stole? I don't care if the guards are here. I'll get it back if you don't comply." She slips her right hand into her bag and grabs the butt of her rifle. "We can do this the easy way, or we can do this the hard way. The choice is yours." She softly smiles.

Reymondo stands and stares at the doll that just tried to push him. A look of irritation is etched on his face as he looks at the strange doll. He thought the dolls around this school were very well maintained and looked alot more elegant but this thing, this looks like it just crawled out of some hole. Rey moves around it, not wanting to waste any more time. He walks over to the girls side just so he could make sure she was who he thought she was. "Eva?" He says and when he sees it is her, he smiles brightly. He then turns and looks at the guards, holding his hands out. "I am sorry about anything she could of caused. She is my younger sister and is very new to this school. I told her to make sure she stands her ground if he gets bullied, it looks like she took it to heart." He chuckles nervously.
Suddenly Rey hears Selene talking to the doll that is now behind him. He then turns on his heel and glares at the doll with a hatful look on his face. This wasn't the first time he was ever pickpocketed, but that doesn't mean he likes when it happens. "I think you guards have a doll that needs to be put out of commission. It is making false accusations and is stealing phone your visitors. Who knows what else it could do...or has done." He says, his voice as cold as ice.

Eva threatened to murder students in cold blood, and yet Cliff was going to pay for it. It was at that moment, Cliff remember the story about the man with the whole world against him, but while the man had his fists a raw spirit to fight back with, Cliff had absolutely nothing. There's was only one option.
In a desperate attempt, Cliff took out his last bar of soap and threw it in Selene's face, a quick diversion to give Cliff a head start. Then, he ran for it as fast as his legs could carry him, leaping past all the confused students, making sure the students blocked Selene's line of sight. He could out speed Reymondo and the guards, probably, but the girl with the gun was the problem. All he could do was hope she wouldn't shoot out of fear of hitting a student.

"Sister? What the hell is this guy....wait, I know that voice" Eva thought to herself as a man approached her. A mix of annoyance and relief washed over her as she laid her eyes upon a familiar face. "Great...as if this day wasn't complicated enough" She flashes a coy smile a Rey, and once again starts to work her magic.
"Big Brother! Oh you're here! Please make all these mean people go away. They won't leave me alone and I'm scared!" Eva begins to cry and throws herself onto Rey, hugging him very tightly. She leans in close to his ear and seductively whispers "You know I've always wanted a big brother to "play" with." ,then quickly goes back to sobbing her head off as if it never happened. She also takes note of the doll making a break for it. "You better run asshole, you're on my list now. I've never gotten to break a doll before, hopefully they're as tough as people say. It'll just make it more fun for me!"

The more sober of the two guards is about to protest Rey when, seeing no other way out, Cliff tosses the soap at Selene in hopes of causing enough of a distraction to escape.
While not exactly the most threatening or hurtful toss he somehow manages hit her square between the eyes causing her head to reel back. Figuring that after such an attempt she would likely be pissed as all hell Cliff makes out for a sprint, managing to weave in and out of various students with surprising speed and catlike agility. He makes it a 10 meters before Selene can even recover from the soap pegging her in the face.
Both guards now fully understand who is at fault here and begin chasing the Doll, albeit not nearly as fast or agile which causes them to bump into the occasional student or attempt to make an awkward dodge as they pursue the doll.
Reymondo suddenly feels a strong need to protect Eva, not that he hadn't before but for whatever reason his interests in doing so have expanded tenfold. He then snaps out of it, remembering that just the other day Lyn had tried the same trick on him and failed thanks to the influence of Mitsuko.
Still, realizing it or not, he seems to slightly favor Eva's words regardless. Just with significantly more caution.

Selene's head cocks back with a verbal squeak. She steps back with one foot. Then lurches forward. Drawing the gun with speed. She was hit with soap of all things. Not only did this piss her off, but it also offended her to be hit by soap. She was very clean and hygienic. Being hit by soap was an insult to that. It only took her seconds to recover, and it only took her seconds to draw, crouch and see a path between the chaos. She breaks off in a sprint practically leaving dust in her trail. She dodges between the student with ease due to her small stature. She passes the guards, but there was still distance and students between her and her target. She could easily make the shot if she wasn't concerned with hitting one. So she weaved left in the hall. Then banked right. Dashing diagonally across the hall and running (totally Prince of Persia style) up and along the wall. Though she only had a few seconds this wouldn't be the first time she has done this. This action would give her a clear save shot from above before reaching her peak on the wall and pushing off to fly across to the left side of the hallway. With this action she fires then quickly cocks the gun and fires again aiming for the center of the creatures back. (Afterwards she will hit the floor via rolling and begin to chase again if the shots have no effect.)

Reymondo could only watch as all of this chaos unfolds. Before he had a chance to even react, a bar of soap flys past him and hits Selene. He quickly reaches into his coat to grab his revolver, however a ghostly hand is placed on his arm. He doesn't need to look up to know that it's Mitsuko. "There is no need to get yourself involved. That little girl should be able to handle it. If not, you can always get another one. You need to focus on why you came here." She points and Rey looks and sees that she is pointing to Kaavi. He turns to speak to her but she has already vanished.
He lets out a sigh before he smiles at Eva. Having a sudden urge to protect her, He hugs her back tightly. He pets the back of her head as she cries her crocodile tears. "Your kidding me right?" Mitsuko say as she watches him. "Are you really falling for this charm once again? I would if thought you of all people would recognize her charms." She walks over and slaps Rey once again. "Keep your head straight." and vanishes once more.
He can feel her charm fading and he feels himself in the right headspace. He frowns at Eva. "There was no need to charm me. I wasn't going to stop protecting you. Now please follow me. I wish to talk to you but now is not the time." Rey Stands up straight and walks over to Kaavi. "If you wouldn't mind, let get moving before this becomes worse. Also..." He gestures "Eva, this is Kaavi. Kaavi, this is my little sister Eva."

Wide open spaces, a thieves worst nightmare. The plan was simple, get off the campus, avoiding any 'Lucien'-like students and faculty along the way, find the most crowded place in town and dive right in. The biggest question was whether Cliff could make it to the end of the hallway. Cliff held the item he stole from Reymondo in a tight grip just in case he had to throw it in the opposite direction to create a diversion. It would be a shame to leave with nothing but a fat kid's wallet but it's far far better than being caught.
Cliff took a brief look behind him, long enough to clearly see how or what was after him, but not long enough that he accidentally ran into something.

"Any friend of my "big brother" is a friend of mine" Eva says as she flashes a quick grin towards Kaavi. As they begin to depart Eva leans in close to Rey."Sorry Rey, the charm was more for our "audience", but good to know I don't need magic to charm you" Eva whispers. "This is the second time now you've saved my neck. You just can't stay away can you?".
Well, one disaster averted for now, although Eva was still no closer to completing her mission than when she arrived, and now she will have to deal with Rey poking his nose into her business, but knowing Rey, maybe that won't be such a bad thing...

Kaavi looks on the whole scene, honestly somewhat baffled and confused. She's far too tired to properly comprehend just what all was going on. "What in the world?" she whispers as the case after the doll ensues. She shakes her head and runs a hand through her hair.
Before too long Rey and Eva join her and Rey introduces Eva. "Right, of course." Kaavi offers to shake Eva's hand. "I'm Kaavi Treis, a student-teacher here at the Academy. It's a pleasure to meet you... albeit through such awkward circumstances..."
Meanwhile, Selene is in pursuit of the doll - Cliff - who is sprinting like mad past various students to try and escape. She is about to shoot when the various students watching the scene spot her rifle and begin to panic. Despite the sudden rush of Students cliff manages to weave in and out of them quite delicately, until there is suddenly no where to go. Where there was, just a moment ago, an opening, some students have turned to run the other way and by pure accident created a human-wall. Cliff, with all his momentum, runs head first into one of the students and flips over-top, landing harshly on the ground in-front of the tightly packed group which are now trying to scramble past him to escape the manic with the gun.
Due to this unfortunate turn of events both of Selenes shots just barely miss targets and barely miss the students, too. She lands into a perfect roll, carrying all of her momentum from her previous run.

Selene hits the ground and tucks her body. Rolling back into her sprint. It was easy to keep a somewhat visual beat on her target amongst the ocean of panicking students. Funny enough she was quite amused in their fear. These kids come here to practice reality manipulating magic and other various typed I'm probably not aware of, and a gun scares them? She thinks as she keeps her eyes locked on her target's general location. Through the various gaps of bodies she sees the creature collide with someone. Flipping over and on to the ground. SCORE!!! She grins with glee.
She weaves through the students. She hops through the air and slides on the ground through the rest. Again using her momentum to stand herself back up. She is now over the target. She looks down the barrel, but not through the scope. She doesn't need it at this range for obvious reasons. She is breathing heavy. Not gasping but clearly out of breath. She wasn't trained for long distance sprints. Even down this hall took a bit out of her. She was meant to stay in one place. Unseen. Her breaths are slow and deep with an aggravated face. Her eyes though haven't changed. Still the same as they always are albeit more angry. The gun is pointed at the creatures face. Her finger is on the trigger and the cocks the lever very slowly. Faint clicks can be hears and the revolving clip slowly turns. Click click click click. SNAP!! The barrel rotates for the next rod to be ready. Selene hears nothing but her breathing. No yells. No panicked footsteps. The red glow of the rod can be seen at the end of the barrel where the creatures face is. She moves it closer up to the eye so it can see what its in for. "I..." She takes a few breaths. "I don't need soap. I'm clean. I'm delicate. I'm beautiful and I smell like a flower field on a summer breeze." Again the takes a few breaths. Still exhausted. "I'm a lady damnit!!" She stays aiming at the creature, but has no intention of shooting.

Reymondo gives Eva a light hug to show keep up the illusion that they are family. He then turns to look down that hall to see Selene standing on top of someone with her gun pointing at them. If he had to guess, it is the doll that took his AQL. "Excuse me Kaavi. I need to get my friend and my stolen item back. Also...do you think you could get my friend out of hot water? After all she did all of this to help me and get the broken doll. She really isn't a crazed gunslinger."
While all of this is happening Enkidu is also feeling the effects of the charm and has placed himself in front of Eva. He has his back arched down a bit and his wings a little bit apart, ready to attack if needed. Rey looks down at his friend and laughs a bit. "Looks like my partner wants to help keep you protected. Eva, this is Enkidu."

Cliff's eyes flaired with actual emotion. Cliff felt alive for the third time in his life.
"I'd rather eat your bullet than let the guards decommission me. I have one goal in life, and if I can't accomplish that goal, then life is not worth living. Never surrender, not even to till the last breath!"
In a single motion, Cliff pulled out his piano wire, lassoed it around the barrel of the gun, and used all the force he could muster to yank the barrel out of harms way. Assuming how heavy a sniper rifle is normally, it would probably take the frail looking girl a second or two to reposition it and point it at his face again. A second or two was all he needed.
Without even a millisecond of hesitation he leaped to the side, hoping to find another way out, but at least expecting to leave a few students between him and the gunman.
