Midnight Train [CLOSED]

The cool night air and the steady rhythm of a silent train ride allowed Lilith Antonovich to fall asleep in her seat. With her arms crossed along her chest, pushing her bust up for any on lookers to oogle, Lilith's head fell slightly to the side. Her soft white hair fell over her face, shaping the gentle contours of her cheek. Lilith was a beauty to be sure, but also a deadly woman with enough power to stop the train with her own two hands. When the obnoxiously booming voice of a certain individual brought the train to life, Lilith's eyes crept open until they fell on the robbers who threatened everyone. She sat up in her seat and watched the scene with tired eyes. Finally, something interesting was happening.

Lilith was intrigued by the other passenger. He was rather gutsy, especially when the robbers were as armed as they were. Lilith knew nothing about the more modern weaponry, so the guns didn't phase her. And neither did the men. The few other passengers coward in fear, one of them being a young child, which automatically kept Lilith alert. The man's snarky attitude was not met kindly, but with a fist to his face. The man fell out of his chair and onto the floor not three feet away from her. Lilith uncrossed her legs and pressed her boot underneath his chin to make him look up at her. "Hey. Don't you think it would be safer for you and the other passengers just to leave the nimrods alone?"

Lilith giggled at the words of this strange human. He really was a brave one. She glanced at the weapons the others had and nodded. "Well, alright then." Lilith said and then Lucian mentioned their goal, "Yeah, you're probably ri-..." Lilith was cut off when the bastard robber kicked him in the ribs. Lilith looked up to see the man trying to hit her as well. She raised an eyebrow and in a flash had her hand up and pointing right at his palm. When hit hit, it was no different than a man slamming his hand down on the pointy end of a knife. Her finger went straight through. The man jumped back and yelled at the top of his lungs as blood poured down his hand. His henchmen all backed up after that.

"Mmm..." Lilith licked the blood off of her finger and looked to the leader with a smile, "A little too fatty for my tastes, but not bad at all. I'd calm down on the red meat though; you have no idea what that does to your body if you eat too much." Lilith tilted her head frighteningly to the side, her smile just as scary as her eyes began to glow demonically. "Now... Should we talk about this? I don't really like scaring children, so it'd be nice if I didn't have to rip you to shreds. I could though, if you want."

"Seventy percent chance of what?" Lilith questioned him with an eyebrow raised. The man freaked out and Lilith turned her attention back to him. The man just opened fire, missed. Opened fire and would have hit, but the bullet stopped. Lilith raised an eyebrow and looked at the bullet. Since it was going to hit her nose, she went cross eyed when doing so. She narrowed her eyes suspiciously at the man walking away. He must have done it. Interesting. Another wave of bullets were fired off and most of them stopped. One kept going and slammed into Lilith's arm. "I'm not even sure that is going to leave a bruise..." Lilith said as she watched the bullet fall to the ground, "It stung, so it might, but something tells me I won't see it." Lilith wiped off her shoulder and sighed as she stood up from her seat.

"I told you I didn't want to scare the kid. You didn't listen. Now, you... I don't know." Lilith waved her hand around trying to think of something other than the word die, "Are going to get your ass kicked, I guess." It was then that she noticed her new friend distracting the child. "Oh, you die. Okay, this works." Lilith's leg shot up for a direct strike to the underline of the leaders jaw. People heard and she could feel the man's bone shatter under the impact of her kick. The cracking sound would be disturbing to most, but she had heard it before. As their leader fell to the ground, Lilith send another kick to the other's side and felt his ribs crack under the pressure. "You guys got on the wrong train." Lilith said and then finished the last guy off with a nice punch straight into the chest. "Alright, they're down."

In the end, Lilith did not kill the men. She let them live only because there was a child on the train and the kid didn't need to see something like that at their age. Lilith stood over the three men and looked up and down the train a few times. "I'm curious about something... What the hell is on this train that they would want to rob it?" she asked and then looked to Lucian, "Do you have any idea?"

The moment he opened his mouth, Lilith was confused. He talked a lot and was giving a lot of useless information in the process. It was making Lilith more confused! It wasn't until he asked about her finger that she returned her attention to him. "Wait, what?" Lilith tilted her head, "If I have to, why? It's easier to punch my way out of shit... My fingers aren't exactly sharp, that guy was just really weak and very stupid... Okay! Everything you said just went over my head, so why don't you speak Arcadian or Zakatian and keep the details to a minimum. There is no need for all that extra shit right now. What exactly is happening with the passengers in the other car? And what about sand and rubber?"

"I speak everything, but I am not fluent in Nethorallian." Lilith said in Cierian and then moved into Braukan, complimenting his smirk with her own. He went onto explain in a way that she understood, which meant he excluded needless details. "Or we can just kick their asses? Stay behind me." Lilith pretty much walked through the carts with ease. She ripped the doors open, none of them able to withstand her strength. Once he walked through, she forced them back shut whether they wanted to work or not. She had him guide her to the rear car and once they got there, she stopped to look at him. "So my way is to usually punch it and kick it until things listen. Is there a reason we should do this differently? I don't want anything to explode or derail the train, so I'll be willing to listen." she asked. It seemed the others were already inside and too stupid to put a lookout up.

"I feel like I make a good shield though." Lilith shrugged and smiled like a brat. The two made it to the car they needed to make it to and Lucian had a plan. Well, it seemed like it might be a plan. He seemed to know a lot actually. "A prisoner, I can take easily. A bomb would destroy the tracks and likely the train as well..." Lilith thought about the situation to herself for a moment when he decided he had a solution. She was supposed to open the door and let him peek inside? "And if they already have those guns pointed at the door?" she asked with an eyebrow raised, "You're not bulletproof, I am."

And there was the confirmation she needed. She just smirked at him. That was easier than she thought. It was him with the bullet stopping. Cool. "Alright, alright! We'll go with your plan." Lilith just shook her head at him. Lilith followed his lead with a leap up to the car and making it there in half the time. She kept staring at that can of his, wondering what it was actually going to do. She watched with curiosity as he 'made his own door' and the moment he said slam her foot down... SLAM!

The loud noise obviously alerted them to her presence. Lilith hopped into the car through the hole quickly took note of her situation and decided it would be easy to take these guys out. She charged the first three and began knocking them out in the old fashioned way, with her fists. Two of them went down, but the one with the shotgun was able to get a shot out. Lilith gasped from the pain, having been hit at pretty close range. "Son of a..." She decided it was time to take care of that one.

Lilith was able to quickly disarm him, removing his weapon and tossing it off the train. With a few well aimed kicks, Lilith threw the rest of the men in the corner and pointed at them. "Stay." she said then looked up the hole to Lucian. "Alright smart person... Lucian, yeah. That." Lilith remembered his name, "You can come on down." As he came down, she dusted the pellets off of her body and looked at the wound. That one actually was going to bruise and badly. "That one... actually did hurt. Ow."

Lilith laughed at his 'that' comment. "Well, aren't you cute." she stepped up to him and whispered a little seductively into his ear. He went on with his list and she just stood back and watched him. Lilith watched him curiously as he discovered the things contents. "Lilith." she said to give him her name, "Hm?" Lilith looked in shock about the amount of cocaine that had just been dumped over the floor. She kinda understood how much that shit was worth. "We're heading into Fennmont right now. If this shit gets into the city, it could cause quite a few issues that Zakat will like. And if people find out it came from Arcadia.... more issues than either country already has. What the hell should we do with it?"

Needless to say, Lilith was confused. She had no idea what was going on because she wasn't a scientist. She was not into trains, or drugs, or whatever this can of freezing stuff was. She just did as she was asked and created the second hole, though the entire time she held an expression that showed everything he was doing was going over her head. She returned to his side when he asked and suddenly one of the men jumped up and held a gun to his head. Lilith just looked at the  guy with the most annoyed expression. "Holy shit. Are you fucking kidding me?" Lilith tilted her head, "I single handedly knocked out your entire fucking crew. I left you all alive and you still think that you can do shit about it? If you were smart, you would have stayed down you fucking moron."

Lilith shot both of her arms outwards. Her left went around Lucian and pulled him into her while her right pushed the guy's gun away. The man was ready to kill, but the simultaneous action Lilith did allowed her to move the gun and Lucian just enough to allow the bullet to pass by Lucian's hand. However, it did slide up the back of her hand and shot into the wall. Lilith tightened her grip around the man's wrist and broke it under the pressure. The man yelled in pain and Lilith decided to shut up him with a precise kick to the side of his head. "You alright?" Lilith asked, scratching the tiny scrape on the back of her hand. "Let's hurry up and get this shit done. Wanna check on the kid in the other car."

Lilith watched Lucian with an eyebrow raised. His entire demeanor changed. "Hey, are you freaking out?" she asked, but he didn't seem to hear her. She shrugged it off and waited for him. Once she was given the signal to go, she followed him out toward the other car. Realizing that the others may be awake now, he asked her to go first. "Sure." she walked into the other car, ready to kick some ass, but they were all still knocked out. "Hm?" Lilith turned to Lucan and raised an eyebrow, "Thank you for what?" After he explained, she nodded and went over to the unconscious men. She made sure to tie them all up using whatever she could find, usually their own shirts and belts. "How long until we reach Fennmont? If these guys wake up again, they could be an issue." Lilith asked, glancing around the car.

"Hm. Well, you're welcome." she nodded to him and then they moved to their original car. He answered her questions and so she took her seat again. With one leg crossed over the other, Lilith laid her head back and crossed her arms over her chest. She was going to take this time to relax, but Lucian brought up what to do with them. "Just turn them in when we reach Fennmont." she said, her eyes still closed. Her eyes shot open when the car shook and she heard the loud boom. Lilith looked to him with a raised eyebrow again. "Is that what you did with that stuff? You blew it into the air? Clever idea." Lilith chuckled and then went back to relaxing. She turned to him again when he spoke to her and shrugged. "Don't know. Could be a day, could be weeks." Lilith said and then smirked at him, "You don't need to get me anything. I doubt I'd want anything you would be willing to give in the first place."
