They couldn't stay here, they had to keep going. Tanka insisted that he was fine and most importantly, their mission was to ensure the survival of Mayor Lindon. It felt nice using her ability again, as much as Rose hated to fight there was a certain sense of satisfaction then went with taking out an enemy in three moves, which was how long most of her duels went simply because of the nature of her gift. "Stay close." Rose needlessly reminded as the two girls shot through the city, mostly taking the paths less traveled so as to not be seen whenever possible. Miiko then lead them to a strangely familiar building, with vines growing all over it. It was like being hit by a truck, seeing the Parliament Building like this. Hopping over the fence, the two girls entered.
With a growing sense of foreboding, there was nothing greeting them in here except for silence, an odd emptiness compared to the loud cacophony of fire and death that was happening on the outside. "Be careful, Caster, I don't like this." She had defaulted to calling Miiko Caster because you never know who might be listening in. At least like this her face was partially obscured so perhaps she wouldn't be recognized on sight as the spoiled impulsive daughter of Jace Miya. This deafening silence was way too loud, wasn't it? It was all darkened, hardly any light was allowed in, this darkness serving to accentuate the eerie feeling of despair. What was there to do but keep searching, however?
Then they finally heard a voice, a familiar one, it was the voice of a little girl, but with a professional, military sort of accent to it, rather than a childish inflection. Lise, of course. "Mayor Lindon isn't here." She said and that was enough to give Rose a brief feeling of hope, if he wasn't here then he probably knew that it wasn't safe to stay here when the battle broke out. "Jace probably warned him beforehand, how troublesome." And then there was another voice, one that sounded like it belonged to a princely tall man with piercing red eyes. "Captain, there's someone here." Sam Hans spoke and the tension was so thick you could cut it with a knife.
That was how the two pairs eventually became face to face. Lise took one brief scrutinizing look towards the two and Rose stood in front of Miiko to try and hide her identity if possible. Rose was much more plain in appearance, so she wouldn't be quite so immediately recognizable. "It's just civilians." Lise said hastily and Sam seemed to not, agreeing with her statement. "If you were looking for your Mayor, he's not here." A tight smile formed on the child's face. "You should leave, a battlefield is no place for citizens to be." Sam's eyes were almost urging them to leave, to not try and fight Lise, but he said nothing because he had to protect his identity as the spy.
