An older woman with long, red hair looks around the ruins. She calmly lights up a cigarette and takes a deep breath before beginning to move on “Seems more familiar than I’d like. But I’ve got a little off time. Enough for a sweep anyways.” For now the woman keeps her right arm hidden under her long, leather jacket, ready to pull out the gun that rests hidden beneath it

Kali would notice someone...quickly attempt to tap her shoulder as if to gain her attention. Their presence would've been seemingly undetectable beforehand, as if they simply appeared and yet their appearance would leave a lingering feeling that they had been there all along. "Excuse me miss. I seem to have lost my way. Would you mind pointing me towards the closest immense energy spike in the area?" If she turned to face them they'd simply notice an oddly calm looking individual with silvery hair and pale, lifeless skin.

As the woman walks forward, the area gets more and more pretty, flowers growing, large trees bountiful with fruits left and right, it almost looks like a paradise in some ways actually, despite the city being in ruins. In the distance, it may be possible to see a small hooded figure hunched over. They kinda seem ghastly in a way. Meanwhile, it may be possible for Kali to tell where there's a power surge because of said natural looks increasing right in front of them.

Kali feels something at her shoulder, and as such she responds in the only way she knows how, by quickly stepping away as she turns around and brings out her solid red magnum from beneath her coat and points it at the offender. After the initial reaction, she takes a deep breath “Don’t touch me like that. It’s a good way to lose a hand.” With no apparent danger around Kali stores her pistol away again. The woman takes another puff of smoke before shaking her head “Afraid I don’t have that kinda gear on me. All I can give is a guess.” As Kali continues into the city, she’d notice more and more life blooming. Pleasant, but still potentially dangerous. She catches sight of a distant figure, but for now they seem too far to know much about “I’m willing to guess your surge is coming from that way soldier.”

"Losing a hand isn't that big a deal is it? You'll never get anywhere in this world if you have to be afraid of such consequences. The consequences are often more interesting to me then how one gets to them." Despite having a gun pointed at him Elian wouldn't seem to have been bothered at all. He simply looked around at the nature, specifically focusing in on one of the flowers. He'd reach down to touch it but the moment his hand made contact the flower would suddenly have its life hastened, as days became mere seconds. Under normal circumstances this would end with the flower wilting and dying. Elian would walk forward after this, further towards the source of this rapid growth. "Quite troubling but nothing one can do but face travesty head on."

A young looking girl was walking idly by, her hands in her pockets as she looked around the place. Ironically enough, she herself felt like she was just at home even with all the clear signs of desolation. She breathed in, and spoke to no one in particular under her hoodie with a smirk on her face. "It's so beautiful here. But oh look, just when I opened my mouth. It's now...bright." She pulled down her purple hood and groaned, clearly looking forward over the heavenly paradise in disdain. Though there are also others around, she decides to take after that one random person floating midair and leave them alone instead of messing with them. Not much for company anyways. Either way, the girl was moving closer.

As Kali, Ellian, and Susie head towards the figure that seems to be causing this rapid growth in beauty and nature, they can hear a young voice, that, to them, most likely is coming from the figure. The air around them seems moist, however the rain isn't pouring around them. In fact, a beam of calm moonlight is circling them as they seem to be gently touching a withering flower, making it suddenly bloom with life and color. The figure seems to smile, proud of their work. "It's nice to make the pretty flowers happy again." It's easy to see that the figure at least seems young, from it's small stature to it's soft voice, to even it's way of speech. Meanwhile, the pair would only really find water and soil under the rubble of the flooded and pretty city. Nothing too major, but it's hard for a flooded city to have resources under rubble if they've all been washed away.

“Why do I always get stuck with the freaks? Life’s worth a bit more than that you know.” Kali asks herself, though she doesn’t bother keeping her voice down for that complaint. She keeps moving, one hand on the gun that is once more stored beneath her coat. Once they get close enough to the figure to hear them, Jali would slowly shake her head before shouting to them. “Having a fun little stroll?” the woman asks in a somewhat harsh tone. They keep their weapon under their coat for now ready to bring it out in case of any sudden movements.

A girl jumps off the rooftop of a nearby building, plunging their spear straight towards the ground below. They drive the spear into the recently bloomed flower, digging it into the ground and tearing it apart. She then jumps off and lands feet first in the middle of the group. "Yo, anyone know where I can get a bite around here?"

Elian would seem to change their expression suddenly. It shifted from calm to cold in almost an instant as they addressed the figure. Their eyes seemed to grow dangerous as if anything could happen if they were to direct them at someone else. "Who are you and why do you posses such power over life? Do you think of yourself as a god or as a human? Or perhaps neither." They'd seem unarmed but in one of their hands a strange device, similar to a gun, would appear. It looked almost magical in nature but their was the heavy scent of dark magic swirling around it as well.

"Can't stand those who infect something that was fine as is." The girl ushered as she glared at this figure from afar. Since nobody noticed her yet, she decided that now would be the best time to put on an ominous looking mask with glowing neon tape that took on the shape of an x. She stalked the group a bit closer, keeping a knife hidden in her pocket.

The figure turns around to face Kali and smiles softly. It seems that this being was completely made out of water, and was simply rehydrating the poor dried up flower. "I just wanted to make the place look all pretty after that big mean wave crashed through it!" However, the figure begins to become transparent with slight worry upon it's face when Ellian is seenz with Susie giving off a vibe that shows she has dangerous intentions. "W-What do you mean? I-Im just trying to give life to a desolate lifeless place... I'm just a simple water spirit... " Then, once Kyoko stabs right through the flower, the figure freezes up. Literally. It's once again easy to see it, but the air around it becomes chilly as it gives off a dangerous aura, seeming much more physical than it did even when it was first visible. "Humans will always destroy nature's beauty.... Now leave or else I will show no mercy." The pair continue to walk near the small area before the figure's little outcove.

“You’ve gotta be kidding me.” Kali slowly shakes her head, breathing out another puff of smoke as she tries to rein herself in. It’s been a long day, so rather than try to make sense of the situation, Kali simply turns back. After all, she’s not really getting paid for this so there’s no need to get involved in the mess that seems likely to go down “Don’t go around picking fights for fun at least. Never know what you’ll run into.”

Elian would once again rapidly shift their mood, returning to a calm demeanor. "A spirit, I see. I am curious as to what role spirits serve, especially those aligned with the elements but otherwise it seems I have no official business with you. However, it does seem rather odd that a spirit would take such a proactive role." Elian would look over to the destroyed flower now, seeming to be the point of distress for this spirit. He'd take a step back before considering whether he should address the problem with his own power. "This seems to not be a problem associated with me. I am much less human than I seem afterall."

Kyoko merely smugly frowns at the figure. "Yeah, no, i'm not leaving until I get my hands on a MacGuffin." She clenches her spear, holding her hand in front of her and causing a barricade made out of a diamond pattern to materialize out of thin air, ensnaring the figure and Kyoko in a closed space where no one else could interfere. "Show me where the food's at or I will show no mercy."

"...I don't get it. What's a spirit? Sounds like something out of a fairytale." While the girl would usually keep up her act of being threatening up, seeing Kyoko suddenly plunge into that flower was very...weird. At the same time, she almost burst out laughing, but seeing as how this random girl was very offended by her actions, Susie wouldn't bother trying to feed into it. "Welp, not my problem. It's hers now." She shrugged as her eyes darted toward Kyoko from her mask. Despite the fact that the girl has stopped tensing up with the spirit that stands before them, her hands seem to be ridden with dry blood which would most likely still be unsettling at the very least.

The figure smiles at Elian, reverting to what seems like it's normal state. "Isn't it pretty though? I like making sad places happy again." Suddenly, the closed space stops the figure from getting out to talk to Elian, or the girl that left, and once more becomes transparent once more, becoming worried. "T-Theres plenty of fruits in the surrounding area... Y-You could eat that... Please, I'd rather not fight... I just want to be peaceful..." It seems to be crying, yet nothing is coming out of it's eyes. Instead, it becomes harder to see them because there seems to be some sort of mist being produced from it's eyes, blocking it from being seen.

The barrier disappears, as does Kyoko's weapon. She smirks at the elemental while also barely shrugging. "I guess you're all bark and no bite." Kyoko then moves at supersonic speed, scouring the area for any fruit she can come upon and consume.
