Finally after wandering through the desert not having a clue where she was going they arrived to a city with signs of life. Fallon Square a place covered by paladins and if they were anything like the paladins back in Jherra than Tori knew they were nobody you wanted to fuck with so she was going to watch the potty mouth. Swearing or using the lord's name could probably get your head chopped off or something.
"All right where can I take a bath?" Tori looked over to Zira as she crossed her arms in front of her chest and tapped her foot. "Don't pretend like you can't smell me. I haven't had a bath for the past four days." Between being raped for three days and finding herself in all out hell in Jerico and traveling the desert she hasn't had much time to bathe. Tori looked to take this chance now before searching for a ship back to Jherra.

"You...."
Alexis approached the three that had entered the city, her eyes narrowing over Tori making it obvious she hasn't forgotten about the life she took back in The Dune Sea and all of the places for this "woman" to be she had to be here? In Fallon Square? For now Alexis didn't even pay attention to the mute and the male that must have joined the group some time after their little encounter.
"You have some nerve coming here. This is a holy place not a safe haven for murderers."

Joshua stared at this newcomer, she looked ridiculous. Didn't like murderers though, were spree murderers ok? Yeah she was just trying to act tough. This Tori was not a murderer, she killed that spider in self defense, he was there for it! He looked from Sparkles to this new chick then back to Tori, then he did something stupid: he spoke up.
"She killed that spider in self defense, some crazy blind chick sprang it on us for no reason. Who do you think you are to demand Commander Tori anything?"
he put his left hand on his hips, hiding the armored hand behind his back in a napoleon-esq fashion.

This place was beautiful. Everything her parents said it was and more. Zira had never been here in person before now and even the pictures she had seen of it didn't do the city any justice. Her attention would be pulled away from the beauty as she turned to Tori upon her question. It was true Tori did have a stench about her but Zira wouldn't had said anything even if she spoke. But before they could get a chance to look around that blonde from before approached them and now a clear look of worry fell on her features as Zira looked to Alexis and then back to Tori. Pleading them both with her eyes not to start any kind of confrontation. Not here.

Tori looked over to Alexis and her day just got a whole lot worse than smelling horrible from lack of a bath. "Oh for chri--- I mean good grief." Do not use any lords name in vain. Repeat, do not use anybodies lord name in vain. "You can relax, Malaware, once I had a bath I'm on the first ship off this continent. With any luck you'll never have to see me again." Tori then heard Joshua speak and immediately her palm was in her face. "Joshua, shut up."

Alexis glanced over to the newcomer of the former duo. An eyebrow raised by the time he finally finished speaking. Alexis naturally had no idea what he was talking about and would dismiss it as mindless babble.
"Spider? Blind chick? I haven't the slightest clue what you're talking about. I'm referring to the unarmed man this woman---" Alexis nodded her head over to Tori--- "shot six times in cold blood. I just came back from informing his mother that she would never see him again. Have you any idea how painful that was? Are you proud?"

Zira took a couple of steps closer to Alexis, posing zero threat to the blonde as she pointed over to a nearby inn, trying to hint that they should take this little dispute there as to avoid disturbing the peace and luring one of the paladins towards them. They had just gotten here and Zira didn't want to give a bad first impression to any of the nearby guards.

Joshua turned and stared at Tori "Six times? huh..." Then she told him to shut up.
He Obeyed.
Six times in cold blood? she liked those pistols, and this Malaware seems to not like people dying, and likes putting herself through the grief of informing the next of kin. A real saint. She would hate him. David remained quiet, knowing there was nothing they could do to get into or out of this situation unscathed... He simply nodded and moved back, his mask tucked away in his clothes.

Tori kept the palm to her face not believing the amount of stupidity radiating off of this woman, this so called soldier of the Ajerian. It was as if Alexis had purposely ignored everything Tori tried to explain the last time they met. "Malaware..." Tori trailed off as she moved the palm from her face. "Deal with it. In your line of work you're going to be telling people a lot of things they aren't going to want to hear. Think of it as training and as for the man he was far from innocent and I acted in self defense or are you just so determined to give me trouble you'll argue your case through wet cement?"
Tori's eyes looked over to Zira as she pointed to the nearby inn. The Commander agreed and without another word to Alexis, even a glance for that matter, Tori began her walk over to the inn not caring that she didn't have money right now. She was banking that because this was a holy city they would allow them to stay out of the goodness of their hearts or that Sparks or Joshua had some left over changes to get them a room.

"I beg your pardon? I am with the Ajerian you'll learn some res-!"
Alexis couldn't believe this Tori had just walked straight by her and for the inn. Never before had she received such disrespect even as a simple grunt. Alexis would bite her lip and allow the party to enter the inn before resuming this conversation as it wasn't wise to continue out in the open like this.

Joshua gave this Malaware chick a small little wave, what the fuck was an Ajerian? Clearly it was just a special branch of police officer which delighted in emotional masochism and a lack of fashion sense. That didn't matter now, Sparkles was sparkling and Commander Cold had just committed the snub of the century. Joshua shifted, moving his right hand to the front of him and tucking it into his shirt absentmindedly. He simply followed the babes in command to the inn.

There was an apologetic look which now filled the face of Zira, directed at Alexis before she followed Tori into the inn. Pulling out her wallet from her back pocket she looked about at the money inside and caught up to Tori, handing her what Zira assumed would be enough if they had any rooms available in the first place.

"Haha... Bitch blew you off..." A silver haired male walked up besides Alexis, Clad in black jeans, a gray wife-beater, boots, and a black button up shirt that remained unbuttoned. On his back rested his father's sword rebellion. Tucked under his arm and held there was a medium sized box, the sole reason he was in Fallon Square. Daikus took a minute to finally stand next to her, "So... whatcha' gonna do? And need any help?"

Tori entered the inn and turned around just in time to see Zira handing her money. Sergent Sparkles continued to prove her usefulness as Tori took the cash and looked over to the man behind the nearby desk. "This is only temporary until I can find a ship." Tori wondered what the other two would do once she found one. Would they wish to stay here or would the two insist on traveling with her to Jherra? Sazan could always use new people to fight in the army if they were up to it. It didn't seem like either one of them had a place to call their own unless they chose to remain here.
"A room for three please." Tori handed the man the money and moments later they were being led up to their room which was around medium side with a couple of windows looking out to Fallon Square. Tori suspected that Alexis would be up barging down her door any minute now to bitch about what happened in The Dune Sea some more. She merely pulled up a chair, sat down and crossed her legs as she waited. The other two could do as they pleased.

Alexis Malaware was made to look a fool and you better believe she wasn't going to take this lying down. Right then would she hear a voice and turn around to see a man who fit the description of the hybrid she heard so much about. The one that defeated an Abyss general when the odds were heavily stacked against him, quite inspiring and of all the places and times to show up, he had to appear here and now. Best not show weakness.
"Maybe to hold them down but I can handle the rest."
That didn't come off as cocky did it? Course not. It was confidence and confidence was key. Alexis made her way to the inn believing the hybrid would follow as she walked right in and asked for the room of Tori and her party. The inn keeper knew who she fought for and no one around here wanted to be on the bad side of either the paladins or the Ajerians so she quickly learned the whereabouts of their room and went up to it, barging in and staring at Tori sitting there so calmly.
"Who the hell do you think you are!?"
