First Night [Action]


[In the middle of the previous night, a note will be left under the door of Clark Kent.  It reads as follows:]

Clark,

There are urgent matters to discuss.  Be on top of Community Housing 7 at midnight.

[The note is not signed and not dated.  Mysterious letter is mysterious.  The only question is whether or not Clark will meet him there at the appropriate time.   As for the rest of the night before then, Batman will keep tabs on Luceti.  He's looking for anyone in particular he might find useful.  If you want to be shadowed by this vigilante or speak with him feel free to be out and about minding your own business.  Don't worry about finding him.  He'll find you.

Be warned, he may not even stop to talk if he doesn't want to.  That's just how he is.]

[Terra pauses, any relaxation washing away as she's almost certain that she's being watched.]

Who's there? ...Kefka?

[She pauses for a tense moment, then realizes it's probably paranoia getting the better of her. Muttering something to herself, she shakes her head and glances around once more before heading deliberately away from the town, following the river. There's a cautious glance back, once or twice, and it's evident that she's worried about being followed.]

[Kefka. One of the more commonly uttered names amongst the villains here. Judging by her reactions to the name, she's not in league with him. In fact... he's fairly certain he's seen her before in his research about him.

...Of course. She's one of his favored targets. Terra. What Kefka wanted with her was a mystery, but the evil mage reminded him too much of the Clown Prince of Crime. Men like him don't target people without a reason, even if it's just for some sort of punchline.

...If she's a target, she might be willing to share any information she has about his activities. But now would not be the best time for that. She's agitated and afraid. And he knows all too well his presence would be unwelcome right now.

Though that won't stop him from trailing her, keeping a fair distance away at all times. If she heads too far out of the village, though, he'll leave. He's got other things to look into as well tonight...]

[Terra does continue with the intent to head out quite far from the village, only pausing every now and then to be certain that she's not followed. Whether or not Batman sees it, at some point, she sheds her human appearance and become a glowing being, gliding amongst the trees. Such breaks help calm her down.]

[Just as he's about to turn and leave, he will see that, not that he has any clue what it is. He watches her glide and fly around for a moment through the trees. Clearly, she has great control. Though... it may be the reason Kefka's after her. For now, though... he's going to leave the scene. But now, he'll have to find time to speak with her.]
