[IC] When the Rapture Comes Knocking

[RhineQueen]

Roxy chuckled and blushed harder. "Hah. Well I'm glad someone thinks my weird awkwardness is cute."

[ChristaEinheart]

Christa smirked a bit, then blinked when Vagin came in.

[RhineQueen]

Roxy nodded to Varg and held up some of the food they had found.
"Hey. Check it out. We got some grub. Nothing fresh, but it's fairly hearty."

[ChristaEinheart]

He smiled a little and nodded. "Good!" and sat by them on the floor, grinning.

Christa happily nibbled on something.

[RhineQueen]

Roxy sat against Christa, unwrapping one of the granola bars, happy that it was apple cinnamon, her favourite flavour. She was also happy that Christa had actually returned her affections and quietly sung to herself.

[ChristaEinheart]

Vagin and Christa enjoyed, and Christa started to sing along and harmonize with her.

[RhineQueen]

Roxy took out her ukulele, adding it's soft strums to the tune.

[ChristaEinheart]

Vagin added his deep baritone to the tune.

[RhineQueen]

As the police station filled with the small choir, Roxy finally felt safe. With the song filling the air and the company filling her heart she completely forgot about the events that had led them there and the stress of the past few days melted away into the fading afternoon light.

[ChristaEinheart]

That's when a polite knocking was heard at the front entrance. Christa stopped and she looked to Vagin. The two stood and frowned.

[RhineQueen]

Roxy stopped her strumming abruptly and looked up to the door, her eyes wide and confused. She looked back and forth between Christa and Vagin.
"Um. Do you think it's the lady on the radio?"

[ChristaEinheart]

The girl frowned more. "I will see. Vagin, stay here with Roxy." and she trotted off before he or Roxy could protest.

[RhineQueen]

Roxy watched tentatively as Christa went for the door, tensed and ready to do something. What, she din't know, but something.

[ChristaEinheart]

Christa took down the stuff and opened the door. "Hello?"

It was a woman. She grinned with relief. "You must be one of the people with that girl on the radio."

[RhineQueen]

Roxy visibly relaxed, sighing in relief. She stood and approached the door, smiling.
"Hey." She said, extending her hand. "I'm Roxy. I'm the one on the radio."

[ChristaEinheart]

The woman grinned again. "I'm Aria, Aria Blake." and shook Roxy's hand.

[RhineQueen]

Roxy smiled and waved her in, nervously checking the city skyline before closing the door.
"You uh, you didn't have any trouble getting over here, did you?" She asked.

[ChristaEinheart]

She nodded. "There were some creatures, but I managed to lose them."

Christa tilted her head to the side and she and Vagin put the barricade back up.

[RhineQueen]

Roxy nodded, but her face didn't agree with her gesture. She swore under her breath and ran a hand through her hair.
"Did you... do you know what they are?" She asked, almost dreading the answer.

[ChristaEinheart]

She sighed. "Demons."
