Azura x Beruka C
Music: Dance in the Dark
AZURA: Beruka, I do appreciate you coming with me into town.
BERUKA: That's unnecessary. I'm simply following Lady Camilla's orders.
AZURA: Even so, I must-
BOY: Oh nooooo.... Look out!
*Pottery smashes against the floor!*
BERUKA: Urgh...
AZURA: Are you alright?
BERUKA: Yes. Though I'm afraid I dropped your things.
BOY: Golly miss, I'm terribly sorry. Here, let me get the stuff you dropped. It's the least I can do.
BERUKA: It's fine. My reflexes should have been sharper.
BOY: No, no, no...I insist...
*The music cuts out.*
RUFFIAN: Beruka.
BERUKA: ...!
*A blade is drawn!*
RUFFIAN: Heh.
*A strike cuts deep!*
RUFFIAN Gah! Dammit!
AZURA: Have you forgotten there are two of us?
RUFFIAN: Nah, I just assumed you were some dainty princess. But you actually pack quite the punch. My bad.... Hehehe....
RUFFIAN: Well, won't make that mistake next time!
BERUKA: You assume there will be a next time?!
*Her swing misses!*
RUFFIAN: Wow... Are you REALLY Beruka? Either you were overhyped or this retainer gig has dulled you something fierce!
RUFFIAN: Either way, I'll be seeing you.
BERUKA: ...
AZURA: He got away...
AZURA: There's no point giving chase. We'll only put the villagers in danger.
BERUKA: I suppose.
*The music returns.*
AZURA: Did you know that man?
BERUKA: No. He was an assassin. It's likely he was sent at the behest of someone that does know me.
BERUKA: The only question is...who could that person be?
AZURA: Well, there's not much to go on. The only thing he left behind is his dagger.
BERUKA: ...!
AZURA: Beruka?
BERUKA: May I have that dagger, Lady Azura?
AZURA: I don't see why not.
AZURA: You'll certainly have more use for it than me, I'll bet.
BERUKA: Thank you.
BERUKA: ...
AZURA: Do you know something about that dagger?
BERUKA: It's nothing to concern yourself with.
BERUKA: Now, shall we return?
AZURA: Yes... I suppose so.
