Darkflare

(Not bad. This place does seem to cover a good variety.) Lilith took a moment to remind herself of her intention to being in the arena in the first place. She looked for the nearest fighter who wasn't occupied in the moment to ask around. "Excuse me, this may seem somewhat strange, but I was wondering if you knew of a fighter named Darkflare."

As Lilith looked around the facility she turned to the monitors to see who the first fighters were. "Those two? They did seem like opposites of each other, so this match seems fitting." Although somewhat interested, Lilith decided to look around the facility more and see what it had to offer. She wanted to see if there was something she could use to warm up before her fight, as well as to see if there was anyone else besides the group she came with.

A number... She figured this was a way to determine the matchups for the exhibitions. There was no "right" way to choose, so she just picked the first number in her mind. "I pick 2." With registration complete, she headed toward the double doors and into the training facility. "They have something like this here? Interesting... Hmm...I wonder if it would be possible to expand something like this."

As Lilith completes her form, she feels like she can barely make out the faint sounds of a crowd cheering underneath. She decided not to think much of it and handed the completed form to the receptionist.

(20 gil per spectator. I see, so they rely on fighters to provide an audience for their profit) Lilith proceeded to fill out the form before being tapped on the shoulder. Considering how things have been going, she wasn't surprised at all that Penelope would ask her for help. "Give me a moment." She reached into her outfit's pockets to take some money out. Though she didn't look it, she wasn't too bad a fighter, so she would look for the occasional small bounty at times as well as any other small jobs she could do. There was also that one time a punk tried to mug her at knife point, so she took what he had on him as compensation for "emotional damage". "Here.... although I should have made you fight too..." She handed the fee to Penelope. Of course, she was kidding about making Penelope fight especially after sensing her aura. Poor girl would get slaughtered if she did.

Without a word, Lilith simply walked into the elevator and waited there. (Except for Penelope, they all seem formidable just by their auras alone. Now it's a matter of seeing their techniques myself.) She ceased her concentration for a moment waiting until the elevator moved and took them to their destination to resume.

(An undeveloped aura. She seems to be very young so it makes sense. Maybe she's not meant to be a fighter. Nothing wrong with that.) (A dark aura, but it's different from other dark auras I've felt including mine. Curious. The other one seems.to have the same aura, but it's mixed with....light? Interesting...)

Finally, a reason to open the good champagne.

Upon entering, Lilith did as instructed and followed the signs looking for the man in question. As she did, she concentrared on scanning the area, more specifically she attempted to sense the ki of others. As she had no idea how far the arena actually was, she simply focused on the group she came with. At least, she would know just how capable they really are. (So... you're not all talk, right?)

"You have my thanks." She turned to signal the rest of the group to come over before heading inside. @A person @Agni Blackheart @Sinjik

Lilith sighed as she walked toward the other entrance and approached the bodyguard guarding the entrance. "Pardon me, but which entrance is the one for the arena?" @LightFlare_Da_Realest

"The flyer we found was in a public area and didn't really try to hide what it offered. I get the feeling that both the club part and arena part of this place is well known. ...of course, it doesn't hurt to confirm my theory by actually asking them directly."

It was only a brief moment, but it was enough for her to suddenly find herself in a bigger group than she expected. Since everyone had the same destination anyway it worked out better. Considering the destination was an underground arena however, she couldn't help but note the irony of the sudden friendship potentially being put on hold should they be potential opponents. "Hmm...I wonder if this friendly environment will stay should any of us be paired to fight against each other. ....I feel like we would be offended if our opponent didn't do their best, no matter who it was." With the group beginning to approach their destination, Lilith observed the surroundings of the building. "Two entrances, one with a long line...ah that's right, the flyer did mention a club. What a pain, I hope that noise isn't heard in the arena. I doubt all those peopke are fighters so unless that's some kind of VIP entrance, the entrance with noone in it is the one for the arena."

"I've been wandering for a while that I can't remember. I do know I'm not from this world. I'm hoping the one I seek can help me with some...personal issues."

"Hmm....why don't you take advantage of that? What I mean is, don't just watch the match, observe how they fight. Note how they move and attack, why they do that and try to figure out their thoughts. You might be surprised at what you learn."

"Anwalt, was it? You seem to be what they call a blood knight. One who enjoys the thrill of fighting." "Not that I'm a pushover, but my reason for being in the arena is that there's someone I seek and I'm hoping to st least get some information. But the possibility of having to fight has not eluded me."

"...you wouldn't happen to be heading to the Bottom as well, would you?"

Lilith sighed as she shook her head. "There is no need to always be so direct..." She turned to the young man. "We're visitors as well, but I imagine any of the tourist spots should have one available."

"My name? ....just call me Lilith."

As the woman and her companion continue their walk in the city they would come across a flyer. "The Bottom. That's the place. For an underground arena, the way this is advertised makes it seem like it's become quite a popular area. Underneath...I believe this is a dance club, of sorts." She looked over at her companion. "Hey kid, places like these also tend to attract meatheads. Keep it in mind if you're going to stick with me."

"The best way to look for it would be to ask anyone that looks like he or she could be a fighter. Places like that tend to attract strong fighters or at least anyone that believes themselves to be one."

"Kid..." The embrace had caught her off guard. "You are way too trusting of people. You could get in trouble for that."

The woman sighed. "All right. I suppose some company wouldn't hurt. At least until I find that arena anyway." She was hoping that the girl's eagerness wouldn't bring them trouble while they were together.

"You're going to follow me around, no matter what I answer, are you?"

The woman seemed unamused at the girl's attempts to be cute "I'm not from around here either, kid. I heard this place had an arena somewhere. I'm looking for someone who happens to be a fighter." She couldn't help but feel that no matter what she said, this girl wasn't going to leave her alone so easily.
