A/N: Hi everyone! Thanks for taking the time to read this story of mine. I tried to stay in character but then again i was told I suck at that so... anyway I write fanfics solely for fun, and i'm not going to spend a ton of time looking up the facts so sorry if I'm not very accurate... I'll take any suggestions on how to lengthen this and make it better, just please be nice :)

Taira sat with a few of her friends from Signal Academy: Saige, Alva, and Nixon. All four had weapons on them. Taira had her sword Swiper, her bow TrebleShot, her cane that turned into a staff during battle, and her shield Ripple. Alva had a staff named Banisher, Sage had a scythe named Hacker, and Nixon had a pistol he didn't name.
They were at a Dust Shop. The area was dimly lit, this being emphasized by the darkness outside. The four students sat in chairs around a circular table, and Sage, Alva and Nixon had books in their hands. Their eyes rarely lifted from the pages. Taira held a vial of fire dust in her white-gloved hands, and the daint glow around her and the bottle suggested that she was using her semblence, protection.
She was handling the Dust with utmost care, and after a while she stood with the vial. Keeping a hand on the backs of her friends' chairs, she followed them around to the counter.
"Thank you. Can i please examine a vial of water dust next?" She asked the middle aged, black haired store manager as the glow disappeared from the vial and she handed it over. There was the sound of glass clinking, and then another glass vial was slipped into her outstretched hand. "Thank you."
Again the faint glow embraced the vial of Dust. Taira gave the vial one small shake and put her hand over the top of the vial to feel it. It was only a slight shake, so there was no evidence that Dust had left the vial, except for her glove. Also her semblance prevented it from going anywhere. She continued her process with several different vials of Dust, and when she was finished she sat and waited.
She heard a book close across the table. "Done Nix?" She asked.
"Yep." Came the reply.
"Me too." Then two books closed one after the other.
"Me too." Alva said.
"Yeah! Let's go walk around!" Saige exclaimed.
They left the Dust Shop and wandered the time on the clock tower read 11 pm, and the streets were sparsely populated. But these four were alaays active wihh a sport or activity, especially Saige. She was quite an energetic, childish one. They walked along the streets and talked. Taira used her cane and. her friends' voices to guide her, as she was blind.
Suddenly, Nixon did a full turn. "Uh...guys?" He asked. Alva and Sage turned around too.
"Woah! W-Where are we?" Alva asked. They had never set foot in this part of town before. Suddenly,they heard a gunshot, a door slam, and running footsteps.
"Guys what's going on?" Taira asked.
Then the door opened and slammed again and an elderly male voice yelled "Get 'em!"
Alva nudged Taira in the right direction and they took off running, as Taira's cane turned into a staff and she slipped her arm into Alva's.
When they got closer, Alva whispered "Fire!" And stepped out of the way as Taira focused on the sound of running footsteps and loaded her bow. She shot, and heard the effect of the arrow meeting flesh, a male voice grunting with pain. They ran closer and Nixon fired his pistol, while the other three ran forward and took back the stolen Dust.
Taira stabbed the criminal to make sure he wasn't getting up again as Alva approached Sage. "Stay here and follow after! We're running this back to the owner." She said as the pair took off running.
A/N: Again, I know it's kind of short, if anyone has ideas to lengthen it I'll take those into consideration
