Finding Someone When You're Not Looking (JT, Eleonora)

[Eleonora Schmidt]

Even with Jeff pulling all the attention to himself the fullbringer was able to see her and stop the arrow the blonde shoot, a bit frustrating but this was what she was expecting as now Eleonora would be able to see how much it takes to attack after using the shield and with the hellion so close he'll have to do something quick or be run over by Jeff.

Yet the fullbringer aim to Eleonora which was kinda terrifying because even if there was a good distance between them the speed at which the water arrow traveled would not give her much room to think before acting, common sense would be to just drop to the ground or jump to a side an avoid the hit but Eleonora is not a person that uses common sense especially when under pressure and besides this was the opportunity she was hoping to get.

As the arrow draw closer she would rise her own bow and release an arrow of her own, the attack of the Fullbringer might be fast but if there's a thing you don't challenge a Quincy in is archery, Eleonora's spiritual arrow traveled at a speed of 800 and while assuming she shoot to stop the attack it was far from it, the spiritual arrow swiftly cross path with the water arrow and both kept on their path as just like the fullbringer target the blonde she targeted him.

Once her arrow leave the bow Eleonora would try to duck and drop to the ground yet the attack of the fullbringer would still hit her in her right shoulder, it definitely hit harder than she expected so much she had to hold herself from letting out a scream of pain, just grunts and heavy breathing as she hold her shoulder, but even through the pain she was smiling as now that man would have to act extremely quickly to stop the arrow and hellion on his way

Seeing the oncoming arrow Eleonora sent yet another of her own at the man, Jeff loved how she took every opportunity to bring this guy down. The arrows passed each other, being only a mere Inch away from one another before continuing their hurdle towards their targets. The man decided it was best to yet again speak "Water Guard", creating yet another shield that easily protected against the Quincy's arrow. His own shot on the other hand, seemed to hit it's target.



It was pretty clear the girl was in pain from this, only just stifling a sound of pain. This enraged Jeff, no, he was more than enraged. At this moment in time Jeff was livid, this man dared attack the girl he planned on adopting and having under his wing? No, play time was over. Jeff completed his charge toward the man who was grinning by this point, not seeing the actual anger in the Saika's eyes.



Jeff upon reaching the man and slamming into him full force, started sending him flying backwards. The problem for the racist man, however, was the second Jeff made contact with the Fullbringer he released his Dark Skill 1. An aura blasted from Jeff covering a 10 foot radius around him, that's when the man would realize the slam that only bruised him before had just cracked his left arms bone.



As the man with his newly broken arm began soaring backwards, Jeff grew to arms made from yellow aura from his shoulders. These aura arms moved at a speed of 300 to grab the now airborne Fullbringer. Upon grabbing him Jeff would slam him downward into the ground with a strength of 600, doing so caused the man to spit up blood. The man could tell his spin was just broken, however, it didn't sever the nerve meaning he felt everything still. Though he wouldn't for long as Jeff puts the left aura arm on his chest and slowly presses down until the man stops moving.



Turning to face the girl Jeff's attitude would change completely from before, he now shows concern for how she's doing. Walking up to her he asks, "Are you alright? How bad did he hurt you?" Looking at the wound where the arrow hit her shoulder, it didn't seem to be anything major at least. With a little bit time that would heal, but he wanted to make sure she was gonna be safer from now on. "I'm gonna take you under my wing, in fact you can even say I'm your adoptive father! Though in order to make sure I can come to your need we will have to complete a small ritual. It won't be painful, so don't worry about that. It'll make a tattoo on your body of something we choose, for that I was thinking of a stone maybe? To represent our new care for each other is as solid as a rock!"

How annoying and frustrating that no matter how much she throws his way this man can shift between the water barrier and projectiles with seemingly no down time, and now her right shoulder was in a world of pain so much that barely moving her arm felt like hell, but she wouldn't let this hold her back since the fight wasn't over she had to do her best to stay alert and defend herself.

Yet she wasn't ready to witness what her eyes caught, the other creature that has been fighting this fullbringer alongside her just drop any pretense of having an average strength, he was going all out and Eleonora barely could registered what was happening thanks to the pain and how fast everything went, she just saw the man fly backwards get slammed back into the ground spit blood from the impact and then gargles follow by silence as the yellow hand slowly crushed him.

To say that she was scared was an understatement, not only she just realized the true power of what she was trying to fight but has witness a person being killed in cold blood, sure that fullbringer definitely deserved it and it was him or her but still this is something she was not ready to see just yet, hollows just disappear after being defeated the man was still there and there was no way to sugar coat it or reason it outside of it had to happen.

She heard the hellion talk but right now she was a complete mess and trying to focus away from the dead fullbringer was a hard task, yet she did heard something about taking her under his wing (not the part about being adopted) and honestly while she may not understand this creature but it's hard to argue that having it as an ally would be highly positive.

"Alright, the name's Eleonora Schmidt" She'd say letting go of her shoulder and extending her left arm see if the hellion helps her stand up. "Thanks for helping me here I..." she would give one more look at the fullbringer "Not sure if I'd be here without you so... Thanks and sorry for trying to shoot you earlier"

Walking towards the girl Jeff stops just in front of her. The young Quincy begins speaking to him, holding out a hand for help getting up. There was no way he wouldn’t help her, reaching out towards her with his aura arms the Saika grabs her by the waist and promptly lifts her up to her feet.

Jeff would then continue on speaking, “In that case Eleonora, I’d be glad to help keep you safe. This will be a simple ritual, we just need to pick our palms to cause a little bleeding. With our bleeding palms we initiate a handshake and start thinking about a rock tattoo anywhere you want! Once the tattoo appears on your body the ritual is complete. So what do ya say, how about we get this started?”

It’s only at this point Jeff realizes the young girl keeps looking at the corpse behind him. Granted, she was also trying to avoid it at the same time. With a slight grin he would simply step in her line of sight of where that body lay. “Don’t worry about that, If I have anything to say about it, you won’t have to be the one to perform those kinds of deeds.”

With that said Jeff would begin motioning for Eleonora to follow him. Walking on into the woods some he would spot a recently abandoned cottage. Strange to see that in a park, but why dwell on things like that, right? Moving towards the door of the quiet wooden building, he would look back every now and again checking on his adopted daughter.

If Eleonora was talking to him at any point, Jeff would take the time to listen while he continues walking. Upon reaching the door he would reach for the handle and turn, sure enough it was locked. “Well, nobody lives here anyway”, those words would be followed by the sound of breaking metal and wood. For an object that barely has much metal, it's always funny to hear how much metal breaks in them.

Now that the door seems to be unlocked Jeff pushes it open, revealing a classic log cabin vacation home design. It was dark of course due to the lack of lights being on, but it seems there was a light switch near the entrance. Flicking the switch up, the lights actually turn on, apparently there must be a working generator or something.

Sitting down in a chair, Jeff motions toward a second one across from him. “We can perform the ritual here.” A grin would once again begin creeping on his face, this would be the second child he would adopt and ensure he had a way to protect. So with that he would wait for a response, though he was already anticipating the yes.

Everything was happening too fast for the blonde to process now that the adrenaline of the moment has died down, she was expecting a regular night hunting hollows and ended up meeting a creature from hell and witnessing the death of a Fullbringer, sure it was trying to kill her but at the same time it was a hard pill to swallow seeing him like that, fortunately Jeff would step on her line of sight and promise that if he has any saying on situations like this one she won't be the one getting her hands dirty, on one hand it ease her up a bit but on the other the idea of taking another person's life is not a position she'd like to be in too often, hollows are one thing as (at least on her mind) they are just mindless beasts that cause problems.

"I don't want to sound ungrateful or anything but... Why did you help me?" The blonde would ask as she follow Jeff deep into the park looking for a place to start the "Ritual" "I mean, I was trying to shoot you minutes ago, as a matter of fact what are you? I just shoot out of fear but didn't stop to think if you were dangerous or not... Sorry about that" Now that she finally has time to catch her breath she's trying to connect the dots on the events tonight and everything she's gathering is that she was on the wrong for shooting first and asking questions later, especially since it turned out this creature was "good" and save her in the end.

Taking a look at the abandoned cottage they were going to use only made things creepier but hey he already help her once there is no reason to doubt he has "good" intentions, Eleonora would sit in the chair across Jeff and take a deep breath imagining the rock tattoo as was told, she would think of her right shoulder not only because it was easy to hide but at the same time a reminder of this day since it was were she was hit "OK, I'm ready"
