Neo looked back, noticing the cart. He saw Vesuvius as well however. And before Ronin went flying for Vesuviu's skull, Neo snatched Vesuvius' headband away.

That could be useful... Neo thought.

Neo was getting a little angry. He was so close to Vesuvius and then a storming spike fell out of the ceiling. Neo saw Vesuvius reach out his arm to protect his head from the spike. Neo used the spike like a pole, grabbing onto it and using his momentum to turn him around, making sure he was still on Vesuvius' side of the spike. Neo noticed the blade on his right hand and held his armguard moving it upwards and downwards. Then in a quick motion, he bestowed his left arm speed from his right hand, rubbing his hand across Vesuvius' chest. Getting this close was usually a bad tactic, but it seemed appropriate as Neo wouldn't have time to lift his legs. He was in a fight, and it wasnt a normal rub in the chest. Everybody always thought that an edgedancer could lose friction, that wasn't always the case. Neo infused a lot of stormlight and his hand gained friction. It rubbed against Vesuvius, meaning it would shred through everything.

Quote

Just for clarification, gaining friction is essentially like sand paper, but here its on a far larger scale.

A whimsy roll wasn't going to stop Neo from advancing on Vesuvius. He had to be stopped from stalling, and that meant Neo had to attack head on. He was going to pay for those children. Neo didn't know why it bothered him so much, it just did.

 Neo saw the arm getting ripped off of him, that was good progress, now while w Vesuvius was still regaining balance Neo went close and did a careful and precise kick upwards, going to knock his headband over.

Neo went back to work.

He finished up healing Althea and raced over to vesuvius, he gave Ronin some stormlight before they attacked, giving them an additional boost. Neo noticed that Vesuvius had been lucky in dodging all attacks, but he couldn't be lucky forever. Neo wasn't particularly bright, but noticed that Vesuvius did not often go on the offensive and only dodged or counter-attacked at most. If that was his playstyle, it was likely he was planning on receiving backup, or escaping. Neo couldn't let that happen so he stormed towards Vesuvius, reaching for his headband.

Sorry, wrong thread.

Neo saw Max charging in with his blade whilst Althea elsecalled away with the huge wound she had on her. Neo was ready for this moment. He immediately picked up momentum again, going as fast as possible.

First, he breathed out a lot of stormlight, leaving only a manageable amount left, he gave that to Max, boosting him and healing his wounds, then he was heading towards Althea still full speed and going even fasting, pushing his boundaries. As he was just about to brush past Althea he bestowed all of his speed towards Ronin, slowing him down completely. Massive g-forces hit his body as he went into an abrupt halt, causing him to kneel to the ground with heavy nausea as well, while just barely being able to touch Althea and healing her.

Neo saw Vesuvius doing a half barrel roll. He spotted a rat earlier in the sewers, now bestowing it all of his momentum with his Lense, resulting in a rat flying through the air and Neo being able to change course for Vesuvius again.

By the way just to clarify, a quad axle jump is just a type of ice skating jump where I rotate about 4 and a half times.

Neo went towards him and realized that Althea was suddenly behind Vesuvius, ruining part of his plan. He didn't worry though. Neo breathed in stormlight, illuminating himself in order to make Althea's glow look a lot less visible. He then did a quad axle jump and then went on to slash Vesuvius' head in a roundhouse kick mid-air.

Okay, I think I made myself look flashy enough for him not to notice Althea.

While you would be faster than Hellbent, it wouldn't be by that much

What? How? My skates can go up to 60 km/h

Neo saw Hellbent break into a sprint. Immediately afterwards, Neo started doing his thing, breathing in some stormlight. He easily sped up and outran Hellbent, going directly for Vesuvius, giving him a bow to his aluminium headband.

Quote

Okay guys sorry for not posting for a couple of days I really did not have the time but after a day from now, ill be active again.

Neo looked towards the others, that horrid, melodramatic looking man. He noticed that he was wearing aluminium, he couldn't be affected by his bestowers' Lense. He thought, Guys, we need to remove the aluminium on him, it will give us an almost immediate win condition. He then shared that thought with them, using his bestowers Lense. Neo moved forward infront of everybody and then thought, Shoot, what are his abilities. 

"Guys what are his abilities? Might be a little late to ask." He worriedly stated.

Rye patiently(ish) waited. He had been super bored over the past few months and he was not going to let an exciting opportunity slip away.

The man set down his book.

"Welcome to the Ghostbloods. Any further questions?"

@Minato™

"Hmm, where do I join missions and stuff like that?" He asked. Rye wanted to start working right away, no matter what he had to do.

@Ark1002

Neo followed along accordingly, not wanting to distract anybody further.

"If it's relative, wouldn't it make sense for the specific point to be here considering this was Frob's hideout", Neo added

Neo knew that he had to prove himself somehow. Even if they didn't trust him.

Neo felt a lot calmer, he relaxed slightly. He began speaking, "You can trust me, really. Okay, I'll admit it was a prank, I just wanted to see how precise I could get, but my intention was never to 'starve' anybody let alone try to sabotage the mission". Why was he being so open. He 'looked' through his left eye, making it flame blue, and for a split second he could see Max's rioting before turning it off. Very subtle. If they weren't interrogating him he probably wouldn't have thought of something like that, he didn't really feel like pointing it out though. If they really thought he wasn't on their side, the last they would need was more protest. Besides, Max deserved honesty. 

Neo continued, "I'm not really sure how to give you definite proof that I'm on your side. I helped you out with that crazy axe guy, I could have just shove the axe's head deeper and made a run of it, considering how hard to catch I am. Uh... I just came to the alleyverse, barely know anything. You can check my arm for tattoo's, don't have any. Considering my lack of efficiency with my bestower's Lens, I wouldn't really qualify for a spy or assassin. If you can let me prove myself against Vesuvius, you won't regret it. You can even check through my belongings here and at the Canton of Combat, I have nothing to hide."

He looked towards Max, "Devaan told me about that", he said, really confused whether Devaan told Neo Important information by accident.

He then looked at Althea, feeling a little bit annoyed considering he had a Lense right here, while Althea did not appear to have any blood-forged Lenses or be an Oculator.

"Not necessarily, no. For example, just thinking about food while having the Lense directed at someone, could make them starve. Especially when its a strong lens that has been concentrated into a monocle for more power."

:"What is that what this is about?" he asked, "I'm not even of legal drinking age in some places, let alone supportive of a cold-blooded murderer that killed 20 children." He then sighed and continued.

"Look, what I did to Max was an accident, I assume that you guys don't know a lot about Lenses. My Lens is not a weak thing and can easily get out of control without proper focus. Anyhow, I hate to be the voice of reason here but the longer time we spend here wasting, the further Vesuvius will get."

Although, it does feel nice that they thought that of me. Must mean I'm amazing.

Rye waited patiently for the process to be finished, feeling a strange sense of excitement.

@Ark1002

Neo stared at a hungry-looking Hellbent, quickly deciding that delaying questions might not be the best course of action.

"Okay okay, good for you mrs leader, I will answer your questions. I may have accidentally made Max hungry, I'm sorry max, it was a mistake, I won't do it again." Even as he said it in a relaxed way while not looking tense, he was focusing his monocle, ready to take action as he still had some stormlight over from the fight.

Rye complied, feeling a bit more anxious considering he hasn't ever had a tattoo.

What do you mean?

Neo noticed Hellbent and the summoned weapon.

Hmm... In theory if I make myself sound less scared they'll probably overestimate me at least a little. How do you sound less scared? Sarcasm, Neo thought as he still couldn't decide if they were planning on extracting info before killing him or if they were just thinking he was some sort of spy.

 "Okay then mistress. Let's start with the first question. I'm from a Rosharan family. Why am I here? Well after I applied to the canton of combat they sent me here as my first mission. You know, I'm kind of surprised they didn't have more security in the canton of combat but I guess that's just me. Anyhow, I mostly joined the canton of combat because Vesuvius needed a spy and all..." he paused, awaiting their reactions. "Haha sike! that was a joke... definitely a joke, anyways now that I told you about myself it only seems fair that you guys tell me about yourselves, how else are we going to have a proper conversation?".
