Sarah had definitely needed to catch up with Vivi. It had been some time and the truth was that Sarah was a little too messed up on the Yacht to even really comprehend all that much that had happened. Still with her leaving Macht's place and with her losing her arm she wanted to actually talk to Vivi and tell her how those things came about. She hadn't really managed to be a good friend to her and keep in contact and she felt kinda shitty for not keeping in good contact.
So she invited the girl over. She sent her the address to her shitty apartment complex, and managed to do some dishes and ordered some pizza for them to share. She had gotten a couple large pizzas, one with mostly veggies and the other with mostly meats, and some breadsticks. Sarah had an abundance of cash because of what she did for a living which made ordering food a pretty easy endeavor for her.
When she heard a buzz from her door she walked over and pressed the unlock button, unlocking access to the unit. Sarah waited near her door and once she heard a knock she'd open it, unsure if it was pizza or Vivi but would be very excited either way.

i will break the spell you put on me | everywhere I go, I am spell bound; You cannot have this control on me |
Notes --- |
Yeah, Vivi was seventeen, and had been living on her own up until the past few weeks but she still didn’t have a car. Made her kind of sad. It was pretty annoying having her bum of an aunt mooching off of her, but at least she had a care and gave Vivi rides to where she needed to go if she bugged her enough. One thing she didn't do though, even if she bugged her for a half an hour straight, was let Vivi actually drive it. Fuck her.
As Piper drove her to the designated destination, Vivi told her a bit about Sarah. She talked about how she was really strong and tall, and of the things she’d heard she’d done around school. She also mentioned that she was very pretty and a lot of fun, kind of like her childhood friend Kaya.
Piper listened, nodding occasionally. When Vivi fell silent, she took a breath and spoke up.
“Watch out for that girl. She might change the world someday,”
Vivi furrowed her brow and pondered this. The world might be stretching it… but she could see her having a pretty big influence at 552. Sarah really was something else.
Piper came to a stop at an apartment complex and allowed Vivi to climb out.
“Text me when you need me to pick you up. Ciao, Purple.”
She promptly drove away, leaving Vivi behind. The purple haired girl held a pan of brownies in her hands, as she glanced up at the building. Wasn’t Sarah living with Macht? At least, that’s what she’d heard. Probably just a rumor. After Sarah buzzed her in, she made her way to her room and knocked on the door, grinning when it was opened.
“Hey chikadee,” she walked in and placed the brownie pan on the counter, “Thanks for having me over. I’d heard rumors you were living with Macht but I shoulda known that was just silly school gossip. How’ve you been?”

"Heya! Uhm, actually to be completely honest?" Sarah's hand went to the back of her head, scratching a little and multi-tasking the motion by pulling out a tangle that she had felt for a little while. "I was staying with him for awhile after my mom, I had my own room and everything though so it wasn't like ... that. It was just... needed somewhere to live until I could afford my own place with my job."
She looked over at the brownie pan, "I... I broke up with Macht." She blurted out. She didn't know if Macht had told her yet but she wanted to. "It wasn't because I don't like him or anything, it was because I'm afraid I'm getting oo codependant with him... I feel a little enabled to not get my shit together being cared for there. So I just, I needed space to be me, time to adjust, and to grieve."
Sarah grabbed a few plates and set them down next to the brownie pan so that they could use them for pizza and brownies once the pizza got there. "I thought you'd... you'd like to know. I don't plan on getting back together with him, I think he's upset with me but I could just be projecting."

Notes --- |
Vivi would find a stool, or chair, or something—whatever was there (if not she'd probably use the counter) to sit on as she listened to Sarah. So they had been living together? Just not well, in that way. It was pretty awesome of Macht to take care of Sarah when she was in need—
Wait did she just say she broke up with him? Vivi blinked several times, her indigo hues taking on a look of confusion.
“Oh yeah?” she arched an eye brow, but then relaxed it and nodded, “That makes sense, I think I get where you’re coming from.”
She paused a moment as thoughts flooded her head. Macht had been pretty much the first dude she’d actually confessed to, and one of the first dude’s she’d held such high admiration and trust for. It had been kind of painful seeing he loved another girl more than her, but that was life, right? She'd been through much worse. Nobody owed anyone their affections.
While Vivi still held affections for the guy, she totally flushed any ideas of trying to win his heart or be with him down the toilet a long time ago and wouldn’t likely dig them back up. She’d asked herself, what good would having a boyfriend even do her? Right now she had a school to protect and fuck boys to beat up.
For him, finding out the girl he love didn't want to be with him anymore would probably be pretty painful too. She also imagined Sarah must be feeling down… hopefully they were alright. In any case, Vivi knew they'd pull through pretty quick. They were some of the strongest people she knew.
“Thanks for letting me know, Louie,” she smiled and glanced at the floor. She didn’t usually call Sarah by that name, but sometimes she felt like doing it. Now was one of those times. “If he is, I’m sure he’ll forgive you in time. Hopefully you guys can still be friends and all that good stuff.”

"I'm not really sure, but I'm just gonna give it some time, you know?" Sarah's apartment had stools next to a breakfast nook along the kitchen. It sounded fancier than it was, truth be told her place was a pit. Of course, she had really put a lot of effort into making it her own place through and through but she had been gone so much working or going to school or training that it never really reflected her efforts.
"I'm hoping he can be amicable about it, I know that it wasn't like a 'I don't like you I'm breaking up with you' it's specifically like a 'I'm having issues, here are the issues I'm having I need space to be by myself'. Still, I worry because of timing but like, that's part of the reason."
She looked at her missing arm, "I really hope I figure out who Aegis was. I have something to take from them." It filled her with a mindless rage that she had yet to actually beat Aegis. The door buzzed and Sarah walked over and pressed the button, letting the pizza delivery guy onto the ground floor. It'd still be a minute or so with the elevator wait and ride to her floor.
"Did you have to battle any of those things?" She asked, "You seem to be pretty unharmed but sometimes it's hard to tell."

“I hope he is too. Macht’s a good guy, if he does get mad or hurt, time should set things straight I’m sure. And if not, then… I dunno,” Vivi propped her elbow up on the counter and rested her cheek on her palm, “Dating stuff’s complicated as fuck.”
Vivi watched Sarah glance at the stump where her arm used to be. A pit formed in her stomach, and the feeling she got when Sentinel finally went down returned, just not to such a painfully intense degree.
“Ah yeah… those things. I helped fight two of them. It was weird because the Wraith ended up being someone I knew… and the second one was someone Macht knew. That wasn't pretty,” Vivi’s brow furrowed and she blinked rapidly, “Yeah… I didn’t sustain many injuries besides some head trauma and some yucky scrapes on my back and stomach…”
As compared to Shugo, Valo, Sirynn, Macht, and Sarah who were battered broken… They weren’t the bad ones yet they were the ones who suffered most. It was people like Vivi who deserved to suffer, yet here she was in not nearly as bad of a condition.
Vivi slumped forward and rested her forehead on the counter for a moment.
“Uggh… I just wish I could’ve done better... more,” she sat back up, “I’m assuming you lost your arm to one of them…?”
Finally she was addressing it. Sarah was a pretty chill person, so maybe she was worrying to much about upsetting her? Losing a fuck'n arm though… that was pretty serious.

"Yeah... Valo and Levi, by chance?" She asked as she thought about it. Those were the two who had talked to her. "I'm thinking they all might have gone to our school, if I find Aegis..." She trailed off a little. She didn't address Macht and dating because she knew down that conversation trail led her being a little bummed and she didn't want to second guess herself. This was what she needed and she wasn't in a place where she could be emotionally available or supportive to Macht, just as she was sure he wasn't in a place to be that for her either. They needed to find their own coping methods that didn't rely on the other in her opinion.
"I'm glad you only got some light injuries," She looked at her stump, "Yeah uh, Aegis. Large guy, black, didn't get a look under the mask. He went unconscious mid fight, but he cut it off with my old sword. I kept fighting after that, for quite awhile. Finally passed out from blood loss when some other thing came for him, a thing that let out a terrible screeching sound."
Her hand rubbed over the spot where the arm had been cut off and the door buzzed. Sarah walked over with the cash in hand, doing the normal greeting before handing over the rolled up bills. "Keep the change! Have a good night and stay safe okay?" She remembered the warning she had received.
'don't go out after dark'
Sarah wasn't sure what was going on but it all felt so chaotic. She set the pizza down on the breakfast nook next to where she and Vivi had been seated on stools, and grabbed a few paper plates, setting them next to the pizza and breadsticks. She tore off a few paper towels too, and pulled down a couple glasses, "Want some ice water? Or some iced tea maybe? I also have... apple juice and root beer."

"It was my brother, uh..." she fell silent for a moment and scratched her head, "Valo... he's okay though, thank god."
She listened to her explain her run in with Aegis.
"Shiiit. I hope you find this mystery dude. Just remember whoever Aegis was using wasn't responsible," she said, "At least I don't think they are... I wonder sometimes how they ever got taken over in the first place."
Sarah paid for the pizza and began setting things up for them to eat, in spite of missing an arm. Part of her wanted to offer to do it for her, but Sarah was a strong woman and probably wouldn't appreciate Vivi treating her like she had a handicap... though she kind of did. She was just dealing with it so much better than most would.
"I'll have some root beer, thanks," she grinned, "Oh right, I do have some weird side effects after the fight though."
She lifted her shirt up revealing some strange black markings on her abdomen, they were also on her back and other places mostly covered my her clothes.
"I had a bunch of skin scraped off and a few gashes, but in place of the injuries these things appeared..." she let her shirt drop again, "It really freaked me out at first. I mean I've calmed down now, but I don't know what to make of it."

"Brother? I didn't realize you two were related," She answered back but at the mention of Aegis she got a little upset, but hid it completely. She didn't let it go without comment though, "Whether through weakness of their willpower or weakness of surrendering themselves, they cost me an arm. My weakness cost me it too, but I paid the price in losing the arm. They didn't pay a price, not yet. They haven't paid enough."
Sarah was very set against punishing whoever had been Aegis, knowing full well the lengths at which she would go to hurt them and the person who created Aegis. Of course, she already had a plan for the one who made Aegis, now it was purely just finding the one who was him. She grabbed the rootbeer from the fridge, uncapping it and pouring some root beer as Vivi showed off her rock hard ab-- scar.
"Huh, looks a little like mine." She said as she pulled her shirt up over her stub where her arm was. The mark where her arm used to be was very visible and similar in fashion to the one vivi had. "Probably just means you have something inside of you, something desperate." She pulled the shirt down. She had known what her mark did, she had discovered it while training by herself, she remembered what she had done to the area around it.
"Pray you never access that power. I think... I think it's the same weakness they had." She didn't understand it completely, but she knew how dangerous she had gotten.

"Well we're not by blood. It's a weird thing, we've just considered each other siblings for a long time. He's been more of a brother to me than my blood brother ever was," Vivi replied, "I mean--if I had a blood brother, I bet Valo would be a better one. I don't have a blood brother."
When Vivi quit rambling she felt slightly embarrassed, but didn't let it show. She liked to think she was level headed and didn't go off on random spiels, but she still fucked that up sometimes.
"But yeah, I guess you're right. I dunno if I'm in a bit of denial since Valo was one of them or something... I just don't want to believe he's in the wrong," she replied, "Best of luck at finding them and make'n 'em pay though, chika."
Vivi took a good look at the markings that had showed up on Sarah's stump--they were pretty damn similar to her's, but what did they mean? Had she contracted some kind of creepy disease from fighting demon people or something--
"Probably just means you have something inside of you, something desperate. Pray you never access that power. I think... I think it's the same weakness they had."
"It signifies some kind of power...?" Vivi arched an eye brow, "Like the weakness they had..."
She said the last part much more quietly.
"If it's like those things I don't know if I wanna use it..."
All this talk of the creatures was causing the sadness from before to swell back up in her chest. She tried to think of other subjects, but everything else was just another problem that made her want to pull her hair out.
"Hey... have you heard anything about the snakes?" she asked. If Sarah had, Vivi had no doubt she would pick up on what she meant. If not, Vivi would dismiss it as a silly question.

"The snakes..." Sarah nodded, "Yeah I've heard from them. Baba, or Shinsuke, he's one of the ones I fought. I visited him in prison, we talked for a little while." With her shirt back down she tried to think about what Vivi's ability would do, and she wanted to know really badly. She thought that if she knew, Vivi and herself, it might help Vivi to know when and if she would be desperate enough to use it. Sarah remembered how much faster the girl had seemed the last time she saw her, but no longer had that ability to gauge someone's speed outside of witnessing it first hand.
"I fought him and another, Yoshi, who apparently has some ability to take a bullet to the head without the bullet actually penetrating. Outside of that, Baba has an ability too but.. that one I'm keeping to myself. Just... don't get confident if you fight him. He's tougher to put down. I guess these guys, these two members knew Macht... used to run with them in a gang or something."
It was a huge thing that had Sarah realizing how little she knew about Macht and how she might feel about him if she knew the whole truth. It was a red flag. "Baba told me that the next time I saw him I'd want to kill him, and to avoid going out late at night if I can. I haven't seen him yet, but I've been out a night and so far nothing. I was starting to wonder if they and the whole thing with Aegis and them were somehow connected but... it's doubtful. different styles, very quantity over quality the snakes are, and Aegis and them seemed very quality over quantity."
She couldn't remember if Vivi had been there that day in the mall, "What's your experience with them?"

Vivi placed a slice of pizza on her plate as she listened to Sarah, her brow slightly furrowed as she went on. She nodded occasionally and seemed visibly concerned, but didn’t say anything until the red head finished.
“None yet,” Vivi replied, “My brother talked about something that happened at the mall, and um…”
How did she put this next part? It wasn’t a big deal of course, it was just over the school message board. But she couldn't just be like "Oh hey I was talk'n to some dudes from Riot the otherdaaay--", though. Nah. In any case, she'd heard some cryptic warnings from those guys.
“Beware the snakes,” Kaiser had said.
Even Mikey seemed freaked out when he heard they were around. That in itself was enough to set Vivi on edge. Very, very on edge, seeing as that guy was someone she was freaking scared of, though she didn’t like to admit it.
“I’ve heard things about, per se,” she scratched her head, “They sound dangerous. I mean, as if the school doesn’t have enough to worry about as it is, now there’s this mystery snake threat. Sounds like you’ve had quite a bit of experience with’em.”
So Macht ran with them? Interesting. Vivi would have considered going to ask him about it, but seeing as he probably wanted to tear her heart out at this point, that was probably a bad idea. Vivi’s throat tightened at the thought. Funny, how she seemed to keep loving him, even after he chose someone else, and even after he entirely stopped loving her. She was freaking hopeless.
“I guess I’ve just kind of been stressing about it,” she chuckled wryly, “It’s always one danger after another at this school. I just have this funny feeling that something pretty damn bad’s gonna happen thanks to them at some point. I dunno.”

"Yeah, experience is a word for it. I think I can handle it though, at least as much as I feel like handling." She admittedly didn't care about the welfare of the school or most of the students in it. She cared about a few people and that was it, the rest could burn and she wouldn't shed a tear. Still, the idea of testing her might was intriguing, testing her strength against Baba and Yoshi, a matchup she had wanted to do by herself, to take them both on at once.
"Yeah I get those vibes too, I just get this overwhelming reassurance vibe that I'll be able to handle it after everything that happened with Aegis and the others." She thought about her arm and what it could do. She wouldn't be able to use it at the school unless she knew those she cared for were far away from it, the beast in her shoulder.
"Maybe it's overconfidence, or maybe it's disbelief that these guys amount to anything considering the weak ass attack at the mall. I know that it was an intentional loss for the most part, that much I gather. Whatever we did that day, we helped them in their end goals."
She grabbed a slice and bit into it, having to take another two bites to keep up with the stretching cheese that refused to break. Once she swallowed it down she had to ask Vivi something, "How have you been doing, with getting stronger? I mean it wasn't long ago that I was able to size up your capabilities but I mean your convictions, you able to take these guys on and go for the kill if necessary?"

“If they gave me good enough reason, and assuming I was physically capable of it, I’d off them in a heart beat,” Vivi replied, “I’ve kind of put a lot into protecting the school and trying to make it better. If some fuckers want to come along and mess with it, or my friends then they've asked for it."
She took a bite of pizza and sipped her root beer.
“I feel like shit for saying it, but I’ve done it before. Typically I’d say I’d never kill someone… but when something’s threatening someone you love, you don’t think. You act on instinct."
Vivi glanced at the floor for a moment, and when she blinked she could’ve sworn she’d seen images of blood spattering the walls beneath her closed lids that split second. She was freak’n twelve years old, then. Had time changed her at all? In this aspect of herself, she really doubted it.
“What about you? You don’t seem to have any problems with doing what’s necessary.”

"Fuck no I'd kill anyone for threatening me let alone anyone else. To be fair I'm more self centered. No offense, I just can't really afford to care about others with all the shit I'm going through. I gave my arm and nearly my life for this city, I'm officially hanging up my cape and mask." She said as she thought over the circumstances.
"That said I am curious about these guys in particular and I do enjoy a good fight. I just don't intend to let any of them live if they come at me. I'd rather bury my enemies than risk them finding me in my sleep." There was a finality and a comfort to putting people to rest like that. She already had one foe out and about who she had stabbed, that was enough for her to worry about.
She drummed her fingers on the counter, "I think I've already pissed off a few people with that mindset but I don't owe the school anything, I don't owe the people there anything. Only people I'm looking out for are my friends and me, and to be honest most of you are so strong you don't even need me."
