Serin was walking about town looking for a bit of trouble to get himself into all in the name of entertainment of course, cant fight the police that would be absurd. Walking along the busy street his mind began to drift off a bit thinking about classes and the what not, trying to remember if he did all the homework or if there was any he forgot to do. "I don't think I forgot anything at least, I should have everything all done.....at least everything I can do right now." He momentarily paused at a fruit stand and studied a apple from behind his glasses checking for imperfections on it. Not finding any he payed for it and continued on his way while munching on his snack losing himself again. Before long he had managed to get himself turned around and wasn't sure where he was anymore. "Welp. Least I have some time to figure out how to get back I suppose. Could be worse, least Im not getting robbed or something." After some thought Serin decided that wandering around some more would be the best way to find his way back to a recognizable area, but his plan would be all for not when he heard a high scream erupt from behind him.

"Help! He's got my purse! Someone please help!"

Serin quickly ,and now alertly, directed his gaze over to where the women was pointing and sure enough there was a person wearing a hoodie running off with a purse. Without hesitation he dropped his apple and booked it after the thief threading his way through the crowd attempting to close the distance between them. "Stop! In the name of the law I command you to stop" He held no power with the law but regardless it was illegal. "Damn it I cant catch up at this speed, I need to slow him down." Serin muttered under his breath while shedding his jacket. Another minute of the pursuit passed before the crowd has disappeared and now stood locked up stores and houses, however Serin didn't seem to notice this change his concentration being on the thief. Coming up with a plan Serin cast his semblance and had a puppet run from behind the corner ahead, forcing the thief to duck into ally with hopefully a dead end. Once the puppet was dismissed Serin ran in after the thief to see him turned around toward the entrance and manically smiling, almost in anticipation.

"What a big man we got here, so brave as well running after a thief to save a random women's purse." The thief's voice practically mocked him as Serin approached with his blade now out.

"Heres the purse boy, we found yourself some much better prey now..." The thief said throwing the purse towards Serin. What do you mean we? Serin thought to himself was the realization of what had happened entered his train of thoughts. Rapidly turning around he found his exit now block by several muggers with their weapons draw, two had appeared on either side of him as well and one popped his head out from behind a dumpster in front.

"Theres no where to run now boy, just give in and make this easier."

"Welp"

[Swordslinger]

"Oh shoot!"

That was the only warning Serin and the muggers got.

Before anyone even knew what happened, a small vial of red Dust appeared in everyone's vision, flying through the air with nary a care. That is until it hit the ground, in which case, everything exploded in a fiery red cloud.

[mylies43]

The vial of red dust exploded before Serin, providing him with the opportunity to move into a more open area to fight all the muggers. Turning toward the exit of the alley he charged, slamming into one of the muggers who was still dazed and confused before bursting into sunlight. Swiveling around again Serin prepared to fight with the still extended blade on his right arm.
"Thanks for the help."Serin said to his help before pushing some buttons on his scroll Serins locker filled with arrows and his other blade came flying down from the sky before slamming into the pavement beside him, he reached in and quickly armed himself before the muggers got a chance to catch on.
"Lets do this" Serin said as he shot a distraction arrow into the alley so that it hit behind the muggers and forced them out the alley into the street. As the first few muggers streamed out eyes full of rage he lunged into action attacking the first one to exit.

[Swordslinger]

Camille Alyssandra blinked.

".....What?"

Okay, backtrack, what was happening? She had dropped her brand new dust vial (cost her 20 Lien too...) which then exploded, ruining any return value and any chance of, you know, using it. The very next second, some...tall guy called his locker and nearly crushed some poor fool. From that act of near  wanton manslaughter, she was able to gather he was a Beacon student, same as her, but that was all she knew, really. In fact, if Camille had passed by him in the street, she would have thought he was a basketball guy.

Anyway, back to reality. He was currently picking a fight with six or so muggers, if the classic "thug" look they had on was any indication. So....She guessed she should try to help him? Maybe?

Eh, she'd just watch and kick anyone that came close, that'd seemed fair.

[mylies43]

After lunging into the crowd of distracted muggers Serin grabbed the one nearest to him and forcibly slammed him into the ground rendering the man unconsciousness before moving onto his next victim. By now the muggers had taken out their own weapons which varied from swords to knifes to whips and several other  things he didn't get a good look at. Raising his right arm to block a incoming attack he quickly countered with his left into the mans gut. A blow to his back alerted Serin to someone behind him,so he turned around to block that mans attack and counter. This pattern continued on for several moments before Serin jumped out of the fight beside the girl.
"Your not very helpful you know...."Serin said to her while analyzing the situation to find the best way to win. After quickly deciding that the best way to win was beat their leader Serin doubled down on him making sure he felt the most. Firing a arrow at the leader before jumping Serin catapulted himself over the head of the muggers in front and slamming the leader into the ground. He struggled with him for several more minutes before the muggers finally gave up and ran off, leaving the original women's purse. Finding a moment to rest Serin put his hands on his knees as he glanced at the girl beside him and caught his breath.
"Why didn't...you...help?"He wheezed between breaths."Honestly...why even...throw the dust...in the first place?" Serin continued as he picked up the purse. ' Was this really worth it?' He thought to himself as he ex aimed the now damaged purse.

There was a crashing noise, back in the alley. Metal rending and crashing. A door had been sheared off its hinges and lodged in the wall opposite of it. The Fire Dust had extinguished rapidly, but the damage had already been done. Several windows on the old buildings were blown in. Trash smoldered and smoked. There was something worse, though. In the middle of the chaos stood a man. It was as though he filled the alley. Malice, aggression, hatred radiated off of him, scorching the air as much as the burning trash. His armor was old, scored, scraped, and gouged. The rifle in his hand was a modification of an old model. Atlesian Gear. Atlesian stance.

Janus Rogo loomed, glaring at the pair of students. His helmet was at his side, in a spare hand. He simply glared, waiting for a response.

[Swordslinger]

Camille did the only thing she could in this situation.

"He did it." She said, pointing at Serin.

[mylies43]

"What. NO, wait ,what,why!." Serin turned to the girl and glared at her before continuing,
"WHY. WHAT HAVE I DONE TO YOU,NOTHING THATS WHAT." He screamed at her. Honestly what the heck was she thinking!? This dude just exploded a wall Serin sure as hell didn't want to be the next thing embedded into the wall. Turning back to the very scary looking man he raised up his hands and retracted his blades.
"Look, I don't know what shes talking about ok? If anything she's the one that did it,whatever it is. I mean, hell ,she just left me to fight six dudes by myself and she just watched and if that isnt messed up I dont know what is."He said while slowly backing away from the man.If he attacks her Im booking it she can deal with this herself. He thought to himself.

[Janus Rogo]

Janus stared, bewildered by their responses. The moment passed quickly, however, as he found his composure and advanced on the two. He'd shaved in the past couple days and managed to get a decent haircut. The militaristic appearance of him had replaced the disheveled, homeless look he'd worn in a futile attempt to conceal his identity during the bombing incident.

He'd been concerned he'd been found out when he heard the scuffle in the alley, then almost certain when the grenade went off. He'd come out expecting to find himself surrounded by police and dedicated Huntsmen, possibly even another Specialist, sent to hunt him down. Or an Inquisitor.

He definitely hadn't been expecting these two.

"Maiden on high, compose yourself, you idiots. You're supposed to be warriors, not a pair of rambling, childish twits.", he said as he stepped into the light. He doubted he had much time before the law showed up, drawn by the explosion. He wasn't overly concerned about these two children, either. Or at least not threatened by them. Concern for their skills, however....

[Swordslinger]

Camille tilted her head, nonplussed by the man's appearance, "To be perfectly honest, I don't even know what happened." She admitted with a shrug of her shoulders, "I just tripped and lost my Dust vial, that's pretty much why I'm here."

[mylies43]

'Where does this guy get off calling me a kid? I just beat off six guys on my own no thanks to the stupid little traitor over there. Gesh.' Serin thought as he paused in his retreat so that he could react to what the man had said. When the man walked closer it became possible to make out more details of him, but something seemed...off. The man was clean cut and fairly normal looking(not one that seems to be the type to burst out walls) but Serin swore recognized him from somewhere, but where? This line of thought and the insult of being called a rambling child was what caused Serin stop backing up and stay, albeit in a defensive posture.
"I will have you know I'm not a kid, I just chased some thieves half way across the damn city and fought them off over a stupid purse." He said raised the purse to drive his point home. Serins slight high from fighting off the attackers and being scared shitless by the explosion the man had created made his judgement a little clouded which allowed Serin to someone make the leap of logic that he could possibly defend himself against the strange man if needed, but first thing first....Serin turned to look the girl and said,
"What happened is that you walked in on me fighting six other guys and dropped your stupid crystal and then when i fought the stupid muggers off and this guy burst out of the wall like some stupid freakin Grimm!!" He gestured to the man while yelling at the girl,"You IMMEDIATELY blamed me for something that you didn't know what it was! Now, are you up to speed on current events or do I need to explain something to you again!?" Serin practically screamed out at the girl before before turning back round to the man, keeping both the girl and the man in sight, trusting neither at this point in time. Part of him wanted to retreat, but the chaos and Serins growing anger forced him to stay, not allowing him to do the smart thing and book it. So instead he adopted a much more aggressively and defensive body language. He also realized that somewhere in the scuffle he lost his glass exposing his eyes which swirled with the many conflicting emotions of fear and anger that Serin was experiencing.

[Janus Rogo]

Janus stared between the two, anger tempering to outright disappointment.

"Fuckin kids these days."

With that, he shot straight up in the air, took a 90 degree turn, and sailed off into another, distant part of the town.
