The hooded figure stood from her table. She felt a measure of unrest from the little one, and that troubled her...if she was correct, the little one was an officer, yes, but was...having trouble...fear...
The woman blinked slowly, shifting her emotions. She lightly touched the table with a hand, lifting herself, and she walked to where Kiri was sitting. In a voice that she knew, from experience, would pervade calm, she spoke.
"Peace, Kiri..."
Sitting down, she looked towards her, noticing her stance.
"You are afraid...do not worry, there is nothing to fear in this place..."
She gave Kiri a small smile. Her eyes no longer glowed, and they had gained a dimmer yellow color.
"I will not harm you...and neither will anyone else, i assure it."
A slightly blink of a light, just above her eye, flashed, highlighting a neural band, and, around the light, what could have been either hair or fur. The hooded figure winced as it blinked again, and she tightened her grip on the table, before relaxing again.
She stared at Kiri's right arm, with a curiousity rarely seen.
"You have some sort of implant in your arm..." She muttered, before looking back to Kiri's face.
"Well, i'm Vix..." She said, extending a glove hand in a friendly gesture.
A million dollars isn't cool. You know what is cool? A basilisk.
