Blake's stomach rumbled rather loudly and she realized that it had been doing so for at least a few minutes. "Ah, alright calm down. I want food as much as you do, where's that damn angel?" Karael had seen the problems Blake now faced, it seemed that the mad crowd had disguised itself in the form of normal people. The mad crowd of humans converted by a fallen angel; Blake had no idea if the one that had done the converting was still alive.
Karael had said before that she was only able to vanquish demons, but that wasn't the same as killing them. In the world of dust and demons some of the rarer knowledge stated that vanquish really mean 'to wipe from existence', kill basically meant the same thing but depending on who or what you 'killed' would effect the outcome. Blake figured that thanks to this logic when Karael said, "I have the power to vanquish demons." She hadn't said, 'the power to only vanquish demons' this probably meant that she could do other things as well.
But being someone who respected other people, and angel's personal space as much as she valued her own Blake decided not to think too hard on that subject anymore. The danger growing was doing so inside the Vale City courtroom. Karael had told Blake an hour after she saved her and Weiss from the two fallen angels that the mad crowd wanted to put a death bounty on Blake's head.
When Blake had told Karael that she had ways to defend herself, to name one her Dark Armor, Karael just said in response, "Well that is nice and all, but some enemies are very strong." Obviously being an angel didn't come with a lot of smarts, but then again it was called Dark Armor…Blake answered Karael saying, "Well you really haven't seen me in this Armor suit, and it's baddass! I can do a lot of things in it, mainly channel my aura through it and become even more powerful, granted that's just another way to spend up my aura, and if I'm not careful I wont have any left for my body. But I should think that after a while my Aura capacity will increase."
That conversation had happened almost 4 hours ago, and it being the middle of the day Blake was starving. Eventually Blake would have gotten tired enough and went and got some lunch for her self, but at that moment Karael reappeared a few feet from Blake. The angel looking no worse for ware said, "I brought you some food that I hope will satisfy your hunger."
"You wont eat any of it? I mean no offense. You are an angel, what do angel's eat?" Blake asked morbid curiosity written all over her face, when Karael didn't respond but almost glared Blake to death she decided to let the subject drop. "Hey yeah, thanks for the food anyway…can I have it?"
Karael was still holding the food, which was still indiscernible to Blake since it was contained within a plastic bag. The angel tossed the bag to Blake, who deftly caught it and then putting her back against the wall road divide slid down to the ground stretching her legs out in front of her. Blake was currently perched on top of an old highway bridge that had been abandoned because the crack in the earth in which it bridged was apparently untested for Dust.
Therefore Schnee Dust swooped in and claimed the lot on the premise of searching for more dust. The only reason Schnee Dust had gotten the permission to seize the lot was because they had promised the highway builders a small cut of initial findings if they tore down the bridge.
This didn't seem like much, but anyone in business long enough would eventually hear about the massive revenue that Schnee Dust always made when discovering a new and untouched vein of Dust crystals. The initial findings were top layer of dust, which was impure because it was mixed with soil. Even then the stuff was worth quite a lot when compared to regular wages, and would happily compensate the highway builders for any expenses they might have when tearing down the old bridge.
Blake set the bag on her lap and opened it up. Inside was a bag of flavored potato chips, not one but two Twinkies, and a plastic wrapped turkey and bacon with cheddar cheese hogi sandwich. Taking her time Blake started eating and savoring the food, her brief respite was cut short when a worker yelled, "What the hell are you doing down there kid? That bridge is set to blow up any second!"
Blake then devoured the last food item from her lunch, a Twinkie. After finishing it Blake just dropped the bag filled with trash off the edge of the bride. Detonators set under the bridge activated and several D4 explosive charges blew, and Blake a split second before morphed into her Dark Armor. 'Karael must have summoned the power of god…eh probably just projected some kind of holy magic shield.' Blake thought as the explosion roared white hot around her.
D4 explosive charges stood for: Dust 4th, which really meant that there were three dust elements that acted as stabilizers for the 4th and highly explosive Dust element. In this case judging by the heat Blake assumed that these particular D4 charges were Dragon Fire, which when activated exploded with a radioactive like heat surge that left no negative after effect.
Blake marveled at the technology, the three Dust elements could be programmed like a computer to unleash the Dragon Fire upon any desired object. And if D4 detected any other objects similar in make near the initial explosion, it would send as many arcs of Dragon Fire out to finish the job.
What confused and had Blake worrying, as she stood there safe and sound in the crack of the earth, was who in the hell had invented D4.
