The Tenth Night [Action]

[cowledcrusader]

 [To the surprise of no one, Batman has been hard at work in his room with a series of chemicals and scientific equipment.  Next to him are several pieces of equipment, but prominently are the little spheres he usually stores smoke in.   He appears to be tooling with creating compounds to go into them, if you're scientifically minded and in his house.

However, Batman's left his door open.  This is probably unusual.  Housemates, you know you want to bother Bruce while he's hard at work.

Of course, Batman wouldn't be Batman if he didn't go out on patrol when night falls.  He'll be floating around his usual haunts on patrol, not really expecting to find anything wrong.  There almost never is.  But old habits die hard.  Maybe someone will catch a glimpse of the Dark Knight tonight.]

[ It's a little ways into the forest that Saix can be found, in a thicket of trees not far from community building one. Wrapped up in a plain set of Luceti-issue winterwear that does not impeded his movements, he's just finishing up with his own business: for a split second there's a massive weapon (http://fc00.deviantart.net/fs18/f/2007/130/0/d/Saix__s_Claymore_by_YenSid_kun.jpg) in his hand, but it vanishes as he turns back toward the village, disappearing from his grip with a flash of harsh white light.

He's leaving behind the battered remains of several trees and a boulder, his head lowered as though deep in thought.

Things on his mind, perhaps. ]

[Batman waits for a moment before investigating the remains of those trees and the boulder. Definitely the work of that individual and his unusual weapon. Such feats were fairly common here, but it was still worth investigating. Never know when trouble might rear up.

After a moment, he keeps to the shadows and follows Saix a short way at least, to see if he can get any idea of what he was doing. There was a barracks and a Battle Dome for training... so he was probably blowing off steam. But for what reason?]

[ Saix makes a point of avoiding the more populated areas as he makes a circuit around the village - once or twice he becomes aware of someone else on the path and chooses a different direction, skirting company and questions. His goal seems mutable, apparently walking simply for the sake of it.

A man without a purpose.

After a time, he can't help but recognize a little touch of darkness on the edge of his senses - someone's heart? But who here in this happy little town with its heroes would have darkness in their heart?

Saix will do the reasonable and polite thing: simply stop and look over his shoulder, searching. ]
