Clapping was heard, slow at first, as a footsteps echoed behind her. A chuckle then, as whoever it was sounded like a man, with a deeper voice. Speaking then, he was being sarcastic.
"Damn, don't know what that thing did to you, makes me wonder what you do to toasters and microwaves."
He stopped clapping when he spoke, approaching Vic. Cody Blackwall, a man of sarcasm and smuggling of nearly anything had approached the Sororitas. Most likely he wanted something, but then again he was more likely to be stabbed.

"I usually ignore those. I prefer to cook my own meals. This one? Attempted to hold up a shop, then ran off when the owner blasted him with a shotgun. Then he came back with some little girl, threatening to kill her if the owner didn't open the safe. Fuсker slit her throat and ran off in terror again. He thought he could use the Dojo as a hiding spot. ...I needed some practice. That's all." [i]The woman would say with a deathly serious tone, before maintaining a releasing pose, looking up at down at the smuggler. Her helmeted head would loon upon him, staring at him silently before speaking.[/i] "What about it? You don't look like the melee type. And you're certainly not here to chat with some soldier that probably thinks she's some innocent soul who's flying up to heaven. So speak."
-
The man gave a curt shrug. "Alright Ms. Bossy. Personally, I saw the sword, and was like 'damn that's cool, wanna get me something like that', but as per usual it involved talking to some super dangerous person on a murderous rampage. So, I had to work up the courage to talk to yeah, and I mean that by letting you finish what you where doing. Once you where done, I walked up- ah skip that, you know it now. Anyways, what I wanted to ask; where do I get a sword like that? And I don't mean no knockoff." He grinned, knowing the story would leave little impression on her anyways.
-
"...So an unknown individual wishes to obtain a copy of an extraordinarily powerful weapon so that he can commit unknown atrocities with such a tool, while likely paying me an absurdly large sum of cash for the retrieval of such a tool. Look for a trader, preferably one originating from the Imperium of Mankind. No one here should have such capabilities to obtain something like this." [i]Victoria stared upon the smuggler with a certain disdain, even as her face was hidden by her black helm, before sighing.[/i] "...The weapon in question is referred to as a power weapon, which generates a field of energy that splits molecules in half, thus severing practically anything, other than another power weapon. I doubt that you would be able to obtain one yourself.. but it's a miracle that everyone here doesn't have one already. What would be in it for me?"
-
"Well that depends, sweet heart. I got cash, resources, or if you need it, man power in the form of myself." The man seemed more thin curious when she explained the sword. At least then pirates would be easier to deal with.
-
"...How much can you pay me for this? The sword itself will cost incredible on it's own, so I'll need payment for that as well."
-
"Name a price." The man grinned. He had contacts everywhere, and a few who owe him money.
-
"A.. price. You want me to be honest with your price? Ten million."
-
"Done. Easy and simple. Give me a day and I can get the money together."
-
[i]...Surprise was an understatement.[/i] "I'll require the sword by then. Likely from the blacksmiths.." [i]Victoria only trusted Cody to uplift his end of the bargain, really. She could get a.. finer home, for herself and Vance, with that.[/i]

The man nodded. "Just contact me when its all done."
-
[i]With that, Cody would receive a nod, before the Sororitas simply left.[/i] [i]She had.. three options. The first was employing the services of the Dojo's engineers and smiths, of which would demand ludicrous prices. The second was search for an Imperium trader, of which she knew of none. The third, was..[/i] "Ms. Raidriar." -------------------------------- [i]The next day, Victoria was simply waiting in the same courtyard. Now, with two power swords: her gladius, and what may have been a simple longsword, albeit double-edged.[/i]
-
After a few hours Cody showed again, along with a dufflebag full of something. The man was eager to see what she had gotten, and even more ecstatic to have a weapon like what he was about to see.
-
[i]As Cody approached the silent, yet armored figurine of Victoria, the Sororitas would look up at him, brandishing the deactivated power sword that was, supposedly, his for the taking. She stood up, her gladius Fury sheathed at her waist, whilst presenting the blade to the smuggler.[/i] "The weapon," [i]She introduced the sword, whilst she would find herself studying Cody underneath that helmet. She expected a trap, a trick, or a lie. She had the equipment and the efficiency to counter him, she supposed.[/i]
-
Cody knew not to mess with the woman, and even then he had enough people out to kill him. Once he stood near her, he pulled the bag from his shoulder, dropping it at her feet. He spoke then. "The money, 10 million units as you wanted."
-
[i]Taking up the bag (or at least, bringing it to her side), Victoria held out the fine weapon, it's adamantium edge sharp and efficient. It was.. the real deal, to say the very least.[/i]
