James smiled as Rosaline said that they were almost at his half-sister's father's restaurant. However, that smile faded quickly as a slightly worrying thought struck his mind. "Hey....you don't think big sis will be mad about me going here without here? I know she talked about bringing me here, and I would hate to make a daughter of Nemesis mad." “Nah. She’s fine. She’s told me over and over that we can come see her dad anytime we like. You’re family to her, so if she wanted to take you, she will.” Rosaline assured casually. |

Tyler sighed. He was rather clumsy today. Slicing off a finger was not on his to-do list for the day, and, with his luck, he thought that was exactly what would happen. But, Valen did have a point. "I guess," he replied. "Just don't be so surprised if I slice off a finger or get an accidental haircut." He brushed himself off once more before continuing. "So, what did you have in mind for training?" “Well, if you do slice a finger off, I might be able to regenerate it.” Valen said, dead serious as he eyed Tyler’s hand, before he smiled. “But, don’t worry. That’s not going to happen. We’ll do some basic blocking.” He offered, stepping back and holding his dagger out. “Show me your attacking stance.” |

"Well that sure is reassuring," James said with a sigh of relief. Last time he made his sister mad he had to eat nothing but strawberry based foods, which he absolutely hates, for three weeks. Every time he tried to eat something else he would get scolded by his big sis. As the young half-blood was about to walk off the sidewalk towards the dinner he heard that same hoof clicking again. Though this time the sound was much closer. Suddenly, a melodious female voice spoke up asking, "Excuse me you two, but might I have a moment of your time?" |

Though this time the sound was much closer. Suddenly, a melodious female voice spoke up asking, "Excuse me you two, but might I have a moment of your time?" In almost an instant, Rosaline stiffened sharply, her eyes flashing forwards before she prepared her most disarming smile. Slowly turning back to address the voice, she spoke easily. "Hn? Hey, hon. Something you need? My friend and I are kind of in a hurry here, sorry." She sang, polite yet clearly guarded as she relied on her instincts. Something seemed... off, about that voice. |

What Rosaline saw was a young woman with percaline skin, tied back black hair, and a bronze dress that was so long that it touched the ground. She smiled as she said, "Oh there I just need a single moment of your time. Rather, I wish to talk to gentleman you seem to have wrapped around your arm." As the woman said this James stiffened up and unconsciously grabbed onto Rosaline. He really got an off vibe from this lady.

Rosaline smiled, now getting a really bad vibe from this woman. She tucked James closer behind her, hands planting on her hips as she lifted a brow and scoffed. "Kind of a package deal, him and I, so I'd be happy to hear what the news is." She focused her ability, still having a few strokes of luck left to use if she needed to get James away from someone bent on harassing him. She asked. "James? You know this lady?" |

James shook his head before saying, "No, I have no idea who this person is." He then sniffed the air a covered it with his left hand. "I think I would recall someone that smells like a mixture of brass and donkey," he said. The woman slightly scoffed as she eyed Rosaline and said, "I would watch myself little girl, lest you and eye have a problem." As she spoke the clacking sound came from her.

Once the clacking noise started, Rosaline blanched with realization. Instantly, she backed up with James behind her, glaring right at the woman as she spoke firmly. "Niceties are over, you horse-hooved beast. I'm giving you one chance to crawl back to where you came from, because I promise you, you do not want to test your luck against me, honey." She warned, voice strong as steel and fiery as flames. |

Tyler sighed. There was no way he was getting out of training. He just hoped Valen was telling the truth about regenerating his finger, if he cut it off. "Okay, I guess." He planted his feet shoulder width apart and bent them slightly. He grabbed his dagger from his pocket and held it in front of his chest. His other arm just kind of dangled there. "There. My fighting stance sucks." "Yet you still have a much better stance than a majority of people in this world, right?" Valen corrected with a patient look, before he approached Tyler's side. He nudged the other boy's leg with his boot, signaling for him to spread them out more evenly on the ground. He then reached out to take his free arm, lifting it into a slightly tucked look, before he reminded. "This arm will balance your strike, so you can pull back right after you slash. It can also be used to throw a winding punch, so you can wind your opponent enough to get a dagger stab in." He explained. |

She warned, voice strong as steel and fiery as flames. The woman scoffed as she said, "First off you little half-blood, my leg is not that of a horse you uncultured child. Secondly, honey, my name is Empusa, and will be addressed as such by you." Matching Rosaline's harsh gaze she then added, "Now, I suggest you leave the boy. His mother owes me for what she did, and her child would be the perfect payment." As Empusa spoke of payment James shivered at its implications. |

Rosaline pressed her fingers to her eyes tightly to hold in her anger as she took in a long breath. She reached her hand out to point at the Empusa. "First off. Call me a child again, and I will drag your ass across this street by your horse hair. Second of all, I would love to see you try and get him away from me." She glanced down once, able to see a drain cap to a manhole right between them. A few gentle plumes of steam rose from the drain, as it usually did in the city with the metro under the road. Rosaline allowed her ability to tingle in her body, and she glanced back up at the Empusa, waiting for the creature to truly try and strike. |

Empusa looked at the two demi-gods with annoyance, obviously not very happy with having to deal with a stubborn woman like Rosaline. After a moment she smirked before saying, "Very well, I will take my leave for now. I am nothing if not a patient woman." Turing her back to the two she started walking away, slowly blending into the crowd. With each step the clacking returned. However, even after she disappeared a whisper could be heard in both demi's ears saying, "Though I hope you know that this is far from over. I will have the son of Nemesis." James groaned as he moved out from behind Rosaline and said, "Well, that is not what I expected to happen today. What do we do now?" |
