    Marty shrugs. Okay...sure. She probably would

    He'll head up the stairs softly and walk towards the bathroom. The shower was still on. But there was a weird smell...like something metal melted. Marty grimaces. He'll approach the door and knock slowly. Trissy?

    The door swings open at Marty's touch. The shower is still running, the curtain open with a hole torn in it. On the floor is Trissy's wedding ring. There are acid splotches all over the room.

    Evan probably makes small talk with Trissy's dad while Marty is upstairs.

    Martt looks very worried as the woiden door slides open easily. He walks inside and gasps. He quickly reaches down and grabs the ring he loves so much. Hr avoids the bizzarre acid and inspects the hole in the curtain frantically. No blood. That's at least a slightly good sign. Oh gods! Evan!

    Chesslyn's ears prick up when Marty yells. He stands quickly and beckons Evan, rushing up the stairs.

    Evan leaps from his seat and runs up the stairs towards Marty. Once he sees what's happened he goes pale.

    Dammit. Okay Marty, don't panic. We're gonna find your wife. She's fine. Chesslyn drapes an arm over Marty's shoulder, trying to calm him down.

    He shoots a look at Evan. Keep him calm. Don't let him freak out.

    Marty growls as the old man puts his arm around him. Marty will try and throw the man away. Get away from me! Oh....Oh gods....N-No...You! He will now turn to face the old man angrily. Why is it that when yous arrive, my wife goes missing?!

    Evan moves to take Marty by the shoulder. He then does something odd... His eyes become almost hypnotic. Absolutely empty of anything except for focus.

    Marty. Listen to me. We'll find Trissy. It looks like she was able to leave us something behind. We can use it to track her if we must. I can get us into the more shady places in the Nexus if we need to go there. We. Will. Not. Fail.

    Chesslyn steps back as Marty shoves him.

    I did not do this. I don't know why you think I did, but we're finding her. Calm down.

    He growls again and will slam the man against the wall. Well, considering her family has killed her once before, then you show up...and she disappears. Isn't that a bit of a coincidence old man?

    Evan decides to end this fight the way he normally does.

    He, easily faster than anyone should be able to, draws the monstrously large rifle Jormungandr and fires a blank that goes off like a cannon shot.

    Enough! Both of you. There is no point to any of this. Now could you both kindly use your heads and help me as I try to figure out where she was taken?

    Marty's about to respond with a particularly foul retort, then, a gun goes off and he eeps and backs away. I....gods....there's acid everywhere. What does that mean?

    Chesslyn nods. Acid, definitely. I've seen it before. Some kind of undead, usually have acid dripping out of their fingertips. Chesslyn looks at it again. Looks like they left footprints. Maybe we could track Trissy down. And the guy who took her.

    Evan makes a hushing motion towards Marty and then scrapes some of the acid off of the floor and puts it into a vial that he produces from his coat.

    We can bring in the magic at this point and follow it like a living person's blood.

    Yup. I can cast it now, if you like. The father looks quite worried. Seeing as how Trissy just got stabbed in the eye. Not dead yet, though.

    The magic, if I'm not mistaken tracks the acid they found is being used to track the rest of the acid found within Crossbone. So it would lead them to MURDER in either case simply because that's where the acid they are tracking is located.

    Evan starts to walk out the door.

    And in walks Lumia! She looks . . . tired.
    Her lime green hair is loose, tangled, and fairly matted and dirty, her armor is being held together by rope at the moment; most obvious sign as to why is it looks like she was wearing it when she decided that sprouting wings would be a great idea, and the armor shattered in the back.

    She drags herself over to a chair at a random table, and crashes down into the chair, sighing slightly.

    A young woman walks in, looking exhausted. The only spark to her is in her fierce emerald eyes. Her brown hair has been hacked short. Her leather armor has been cut to pieces and is only good for protecting her modesty now. Her face is caked with dirt and ash and sweat. Her arms are slightly burnt. She reeks of blood and sweat, demonic ichor and sulfurous hellfire. She stalks up to the bar and takes a seat, closing her eyes to rest for a second.
