Dark Angelverse: On the Hunt

Laka blinked as she and her father suddenly appeared in the busy streets of Washington. Laka blinked, then tugged at her strange, Earth-like clothes. She'd chosen baggy leggings and a short sleeved shirt that almost reached her knees, which were ideal for hiding her blaster and vibroblade. On her wrist she wore a sheild, but it had cloth wrapped over it.

Dressed in jeans and a trenchcoat her father stood by her side, looking out through her visors and frowning. He didn't like it, being alone with Laka in a strange enviornment with only an escape through a nexus portal to rely on. And he didn't even know where to look for the boy who's brother had been mindwiped into forgetting him. He sighed, then looked around. They'd just asked to be sent to Earnest, but he was nowhere in sight.

"Stay on your guard," he muttered to Laka, who nodded once, sharp eyes glancing through the crowds.

Earnest followed and indicated that they should turn to the right on the walkway they came out onto. As they did so a turbulent river of storm water rushed along to their left. It was pretty dark, but lightbulbs in cages lit the area at wide intervals, showing gang marks and other graffiti.

Laka liked this place immensely, it reminded her of her first home, and a little of the mechanic's room in the underbelly of the craft.

They walked for several minutes, then Earnest paused next to a metal ladder bolted to the wall and checked the hidden warning light before jerking his head upward. "Her place is up there."

It was clear from his body language that he didn't feel like going out in the open at that moment.

"Hey, gimme back my jacket."

"Awww!"

"C'mon, kid, let's go," Canderous said comandingly.

Laka snuggled against him.
