"Who are we? That's Sacha. Luke and Gary. I don't know who I am...who are you? If you take it, bad things will happen and this isn't a tea party, it's a horrible game."Jasper clutched the list tightly in her hand, the wild look in her eyes still aflame. She couldn't believe the utter stupidity of this woman. Was she actually this dumb or was she acting? As the girl introduced her partners in crime, Jasper's attention had long gone from the useless blabbering and naming. Honestly, how air-headed could this crook actually be to forget her own name?! There was only one thing Jasper could agree on with this seemingly psychopathic woman and that was the fact that this
was not at all a tea party, yet they had been the one inviting them to one.
"That list isn't yours...it's hers."Again, another dull statement coming from none other than ???. Well, you could say it was
once the Queen's, but now it had been turned over to them, her group, so they could go back home, to earth. Unless Queen Delirium sent these bandits to come and retrieve
her Living List for whatever reason, then it was definitely
theirs for all everyone in the human batch understood.
"Luke, Gary, Sasha, no one leaves, not until we have the list. Let's get that list." Leila's former imprisoner was now gathering at the exit with a pink haired female on his back. They didn't look intimidating at all. Playful actually, but Jasper knew they were out to do some damage. Another male, grey-eyed, with a somewhat somber look joined the forming line intending to block the cave's entrance. And of course, their leader who currently had a pipe in her grasp. Out of the four, Jasper felt most threatened by her and it wasn't because of the weapon she wielded. There was something about the lady that was...
off. Whether it be psychologically or maybe she had some sort of mental disorder like Mado, but worse. Bipolar even. Dark wisps snaked around her aura and Jasper could see it clearly.
It was a stereotypical battle scene, one side versus another. Humans versus Nobodies. And all for a List. What did they want with it anyway? If only she knew. If only their attackers could explain why they wanted it or what their intent was, then maybe, just maybe, they could
share the list, but as of now, the opposing group only barged in as a threat. Period. Jasper could feel the tension rise in the air as both packs lined up ready to fight. She couldn't be more afraid. Her high had died down. The anger was still there, but extremely toned down from just a couple minutes ago. Feelings widdled down to two things only. Confusion and uneasiness.
“Pfft. Let’s see you say that again when we kick your ass.” It was Leon. The newbie. His attire no longer spotless as she had last remembered them, but there they were, his feather earrings. Pristine as could be, dangling beautifully from his lobes. She could tell he clearly was not enjoying himself, especially on their first day joining the group. He contrasted with Ace, who had been jumping up down cheering for her when returning back to the group with the list.
Haruken had trails of blood, both dried and new, streaming from his head and he looked pretty bad. Eyes trailing down to her legs and clothes, she knew her current appearance probably looked just as bad as anyone else.
They had to keep this list no matter what. They had no choice, unless they were ok with staying in Nowhere, but that just wasn't an option for her. Seeing mini puddles of that goop that she had fallen into not too long ago, a ding presented itself in her mind. The gunk had some sort of drunken affect on whoever who inhaled it from a close range.
Jasper's eyes followed Sacha's who had his gaze turned to the reddened handkerchief on the ground. She had used it to wipe and bandage her cut, but it must've fallen when she stomped towards ???. His expression saddened and that's all she needed to understand that he must have been the one to put it there. How nice of him, but he was on the 'bad guys' side. He looked less harmless than the rest as well and he wasn't much taller than her either. Not a surprise, since Jasper basically shared the height of a typical manikin, but with added 3-inch heels (she's not wearing heels though...)
'He's kinda handsome... too bad I'm about the ruin it' She scooped up a handful of the slime, trying her best not to make a face and not to breathe in any of the unknown slush. Approaching the handkerchief calmly, her muck filled hand was tucked behind her back as she continued towards Sacha with the possession now in hand, mimicking his gloomy expression.
"Sorry about your handkerchief... how about I give you this instead?" A handful of
'beer' goop now revealed from its hiding spot, her hand went straight for his nose and mouth area at which she generously smeared a cup full of the stuff all over his face.
