Completed [The Great Bazaar] Intangible Troublemaker (Ehati)

[Fubuki Kouri]

Fubuki Kouri 53rd of Spring, 14th of Bell, 513 AV Haaaa~ I'm here again~ Ehehe~ Kouri mused herself in her mind as she found herself in the Great Bazaar again. This crowded market is always full of interesting things, people, and events. She had met various people in the market and got into trouble with an arrogant squire once, some people defended her, and it went from bad to worse when some of the knights intervened and punished one of the people who defended her because he was using magic to get back at the arrogant squire for hitting him. But at least no one got killed and all ends well... except for the Inartan who got sentenced to work in the mines for the rest of the season. "Hmmmm.... What should I do today, huuuh~?" Kouri thought out loud as she floated to the market, her mischievous mind gears turning. She was feeling naughty today and wanted to satiate her pranking impulses. Kouri rubbed her hands togehther as she 'dove' into the ground. Her body up to her neck was completely underground now as she floated forward to the crowded market. A few chimes later, she spotted a prime material for pranking. Two heavily muscled man were queuing on a bladed weapons merchant stall. Kuhuhuhu... Kouri positioned herself to between the two men's feet and... jutted out one of her Soulmist tendrils to... rub the front man's behind. "W-what the petch?!" One of the muscled man shouted angrily as he felt something... or someone rubbing his butt cheeks and immediately looked behind him. Kouri quickly retracted her tendrils and watched in glee. "YOU! What the petch did you do? Are you a seedwaster or something?!" The offended man accused the man behind him of sexual harassment and homosexuality "You rubbed my behind! Now tell me good reasons why I shouldn't mess up that perverted face of yours with my fists!". "By the gods!" The accused muscled man was utterly surprised at this random accusation, he was just peacefully queuing for his turn to buy weapons when this petching bastard stained his pride as a man and warrior, he would not take it, this bastard's going down. "I didn't do a petching thing you insufferable fool!! But very well! It seems you're looking for a fight! I tell you now that you've got one! HA!" The man extended his right fist and jabbed his opponent's left cheek. Predictably, a fight immediately broke out between the two men. The crowd around them immediately form circles to watch the brawl, some of them even started to place bets. Ahahahahaha!! Huahahaha!! Fuehehehehe!! Kouri watched in glee from a few meters away and slowly rose up from the ground to get a better look. Her face was very very happy. "Ahahahahaha! Aaaahahahahaha!" She couldn't contain her giggles as she hold her stomach and shaking in laughter.

HeyThis is way shorter than I thought it would be, sorry. @-@

"Stop it. Stop it right now!" Ehati approached the fighting with a glower on her face that could, arguably, curdle milk. She was dressed as a civilian, having been done her work for the day bells ago, but her bearing was obviously one of authority and intimidation not often seen unless somebody watched eagles fight. She didn't look anything special, being only a few inches taller than five feet, but as she lifted her arms and situated herself between both men, neither of them could make the mistake of not seeing her. They would have to reach around her to get at eachother, even though she was significantly shorter than them.

"I am a Knight and I'm ordering you to stop this fighting right now!" She shouted. She possessed quite a loud voice.

Turning her head, she glared at the bystanders placing bets. It would have been funny, how fast they broke up, had it not been for the seriousness of the situation. Personally, Ehati was disgusted at this behaviour. These people were the epitome of safety and order and here they were scrabbling in the Bazaar while others were placing bets on the outcome. It was shameful! Had Syliras really devolved so much?

"Explain yourselves," she said to the two men as she seperated herself from between them, maintaining the sound of authority. It might have not been in her authority to seperate these men and question them, but she wouldn't let it go until she knew what they were going on about or they were sent away to the Tank. "We aren't Ravok, we don't just condone fighting in our streets. I ought to put you both in the Tank."

[Fubuki Kouri]

Fubuki Kouri OOCIt's okay, Ehati. Doesn't matter long or short, as long as it's a meaningful reply. The two men reluctantly stopped fighting, they knew that messing around in the presence of a knight was a very stupid thing to do. The female knight ordered the men to explain themselves. The offended man first spoke "This petching vagik!" He sharply pointed his right index finger to the other man "He rubbed my... *cough* behind! What a seedwaster!!" He was fuming with rage. The accused man's apparent anger rivalled his opponent, he immediately shouted to defend his pride, reputation, and integrity. "I did NOT do that! I would rather die that to do that vile, disgusting thing! Petch! Even a woman wouldn't want to touch that disgusting butt of yours!" "WHAT DID YOU SAY?!!" The offended man was trying to charge at his opponent again, but the knight's hand stopped him. "*Cough* Excuse me..." The calm voice of an old woman suddenly entered the scene and an elderly human, wearing robes and holding a walking cane stepped in. "I happened to be in walking in the area... and... *cough* this man is right, he is innocent, he wasn't the one who touched you." Before the offended man could say anything, the old woman cut him off and continued "Yes, you were touched but... it was not the person you accused who did it... it was a street rat trying to grab your money, but he ran away already" For some reason, the old woman lied about it to the men. However... The old woman's eyes slowly searched around the crowd and... ?!! Kouri was giggling and laughing all the time so she didn't see the arrival of the elderly woman. Then the woman looked her straight in the eyes, Kouri noticed this and her expression was full of shock as the woman pointed her walking cane at her. The old woman approached the knight and whispered in her ear as to not let the others hear it. "That's your suspect... such a naughty girl... be careful, she's one of those spirits called 'ghosts'... I couldn't tell the men that, they wouldn't believe me anyway." The old woman then turned to the men. "Now you good men should come with me" The two men started to protest, but quieted themselves once they saw the stern look in the woman's eyes "Come, I said, don't make me repeat myself" "Yes... madame..." They both relented and walked away with the old woman. The crowd slowly disperse and went about their business, their source of commotion gone.

With her current remarkably short fuse, Ehati was swiftly growing irritated with the two men and their bickering. When they began to swear and insult eachother with all the indignation of two squirrels wronged, she lost what temper she was holding.

"Stop swearing!" She exclaimed, first. "Haven't either of you learned that swearing in the presence of a woman is hardly the kindest thing to do, not to mention that it truly is extremely rude? If you can't say anything nice, then shut up and don't talk until you figure out how to sweeten your tongues."

She had straightened and set her shoulders, backing her words with a tone that said she wasn't just talking and that they had annoyed her. A woman appeared, as though out of nowhere, and Ehati had to tame the glare she would have shot at the woman into something more pleasant. She listened in, intently, more concerned about theivery in the city than wounded pride, but nodded that it would be in the men's best interests to stop fighting and go on their respective ways. She backed that up verbally as well, reminding them that if she found them arguing again, she would make true on her threat to apprehend them. She also promised to find out about the kid who pickpocketed the one man.

The woman began speaking to her then, something about the culprit, and pointing in the direction of a gap in the stalls. Ehati's eyes raised to follow her gaze but she didn't see anything. Perhaps the child was hidden. However, the woman continued to rattle on and Ehati's doubt began to grow. The culprit was 'one of those spirits called ghosts'?

"All spirits are called ghosts," she replied flatly. She nodded at her as she left then, not interested in carrying on the conversation if the woman really thought to blame a ghost. However, she did approach the mentioned location warily, half expecting a wild kid to spring out at her. "You can come out now," she said loudly. "I know you're there." How amusing it would be if the woman was senile and had left Ehati talking to a wall.

[Fubuki Kouri]

Fubuki Kouri Uuuuuu... Kouri whimpered in fear, most of her body was under the stone floor with the exception of her head; which was jutting out from the floor, exploring her surroundings. "Fueh?!" She exclaimed in shock when she saw the female knight walked to her location as if she knew Kouri was there. She quickly dropped even more to the ground, concealing her whole body. Nnnn.... no no no... p-please don't find me... Kouri whimpered in her mind, her ethereal body was shaking as well. She looked like a typical naughty little girl caught in an act. W-what?! Her eyes opened wide in shock when the knight said she knew Kouri was there and told her to come out. Uuu... w-what should I do? She bit her right thumb and gritted her teeth in panic. S-should I run? Kouri could easily phased through the walls and ran away, but it seemed the old woman knew her face, running away would just prove that she was guilty. Uuuuh... uuun... a-ah! I-I know! Her child-like mind formed an instant contingency plan... whether it would be successful or not, she didn't know; she didn't have much choice in this matter. She slowly rose up from the ground, turned her body to face the female knight, and tilted down her head while gazing upwards, giving the most cute and innocent expression she could muster. "U-uhm... did you call me, Madame? How can I help you? Though... I'm just a little girl... I can't be much of help to a knight..." She acted like she knew nothing of the incident, like a typical naughty child trying to wriggle her way out of consequences.
