Krea sighed as she picked out her food in the cafeteria not really looking at anyone. She had a lot on her mind. So much has happened in the last few weeks.. First her and Cedric had tried to catch or take out the member's of those troublesome Guardians.. Only to have it ruined by some random street punk... Then Dominic came in and teleported them all back here... Cedric had taken all the blame and now was locked away in solitary as punishment for making a move without orders. Since then Krea has met Unicorn, and two half bloods.. But they where nothing like she been taught.. She even had lied said there was no unicorn...
Once she had gotten all her food she found a table to sit at. Placing her food tray down Krea sat down but only ended up just staring at her food.. Krea did not really feel like eating.. She had so much on her mind, she then glanced around the cafeteria. Her fellow Templars happily eating, talking or making jokes or boasting about things they have done. Krea sighed again pushing her food to the side placing her arms on the table and rested her head on her arms.

"HEYA!" A loud, deep voice greeted enthusiastically. It was followed by a large man dropping into the seat across from Krea. His own meal tray clattered down onto the table, piled with a small mountain of food. It almost seemed like he was trying to startle the poor woman, but his greeting seemed pretty sincere. Maybe he was naturally rough and excitable?
"Why the horse face?!"
...And maybe a little dense.
Just a little.
"Oh my god," A second man came up. "It's "why the long face!" He shook his head, taking a seat next to the larger man. He looked at Krea apologetically. "Look, I am so sorry," he started to say, trying to shove the first man from his seat, but he simply wouldn't budge. It was like the second man wasn't even there. "Cali here simply doesn't know how to properly treat cute girls-"
"Look, long face, horse face, same thing," The larger man interrupted with nonchalant insistence. He had no intent on insulting Krea, but he cared little about the semantics of the phrase. "Point is, you look down! At meal time!" He raised a brow with a bewildered look. "You're not gonna have strength for your next fight if ya don't eat, y'know." He pointed at her tray, then took a large bite of his own meal for emphasis. "Whatever's eatin' at ya, you should eat it back!" He laughed.
The second man sighed. He'd given up trying to get his comrade to budge and resigned himself to the seat beside him. "Yeaaaaah..." He agreed in defeat.

At the sudden entrance of the rather large templar Krea jumped and looked up with a startled look, blinking a few times as her now fast beating heart raced. She then gave a sigh as she tried to calm her self down as she looked X-Caliber. Soon someone she guessed was his partner followed shortly after seemingly annoyed with his partner's antics. When X-Caliber encouraged her to eat Krea looked at her trey of food then back at the other two templars. She then offered a small smile as she then slid her tray back in front of her and took a small bite of her food. "Y-yeah.. You're right." She said softly talking another small bite. Hmmm.. Should she ask these guys for advise? They where outsiders who joined the Templars right? She had never really spoken to them till now.. But perhaps they could offer different view then those raised in the Templar order? " Ummm.. I know this is sudden and a bit random... But... If you have been told something is true... Only to start learning it may not be true.. What would you do?" Krea asked though now found herself unable to look at the two in front of her and stared down at the table.

"I think that's called lying," X-Caliber shrugged, shoveling a forkful into his mouth. "If they told you stuff that ain't true, they lied!" He nodded sagely.
"What do you mean?" The second man frowned, tilting his head. "Are you saying... someone lied to you?" His eyes widened as he came to his own conclusion. "Was it in the matters of love? Is that why you look down, miss?" He sighed, rubbing at his temple. "Playing with a lady's heart is a despicable thing to do...!"
"Coming from you? You're one to talk!" X-Caliber laughed. "Ferris is a heartbreaker, yanno."
"Wh-...!" He turned to the larger man indignantly. "I am not!"
"Uh huh." X-Caliber side eyed him with a wry smile. "Anyway, if ya want a real answer in this scenario... I'd kick their ass!" He beat at the table with his other hand with mirthful emphasis. "...Unless they didn't know they were lying. Maybe then I'd just give 'em a light beating," he chuckled.
Ferris slumped forward in his seat, resting a chin on one hand while he idly drummed away on the table with the other. "Something tells me whatever she's talking about isn't as easy as that..." He sighed. He accepted his defeat before his romantic pursuit had even begun, but he wasn't about to ditch his seat when the woman was obviously still troubled by something.
"What is it, then?" X-Caliber took a particularly large bite of his meal. "Ya mean the kinda stuff that your parents tell you when you're a little kid? Like finding out the Easter Bunny ain't real or whatever?" He scratched at his cheek in thought. "I mean, that kinda stuff you figure out on your own... Unless... Ah!" He leaned forward. "Don't tell me you still think that thing's real?!" He paused, then looked to Ferris inquisitively. "...Would the Templars go after a rabbit that lays eggs?"
"I..." Ferris blinked, caught off guard. "I... don't know, man."

"I think that's called lying,""If they told you stuff that ain't true, they lied!"
When X-Caliber said that Krea felt her heart sink... Could it really be true? Everything she had learned... Everything the Templar ever taught her was a lie?? She had met a half elf and a half earth fairy and even a unicorn and they where nothing... NOTHING like the higher ups made magical beings to be... Derek had a chance to hurt her but he talked things out.. Lucy was friendly and bubbly. Lani seemed friendly as well. GAHHHHHHH Krea had so many emotions going though her she had no idea how to react to this... Everything she knew could be a lie... But why would they lie?? Tears of frustration started to form in Krea's eyes as she stared down at the table. She... She wanted to figure things out.. She needed to know the truth.. That meant.. She needed to find Derek, Lucy, Mona and Lani. She needed to get to know Aster city as a whole.
As she was deep in thought she half been paying attention to X-Caliber and Ferris Ha... Fighting the templars for lying was not gonna work.. Then somehow the conversation went from beating people up to talk of a easter bunny? Whatever that was to a magic bunny laying eyes.
"Pffft!" Krea started to softly laugh as a the image of egg laying bunny came to her head. " Egg laying bunny.. That's funny." Krea said as she laughed. She would laughed a few minutes before calming down, and looked at X-Caliber and Ferris with a smile. " Thanks.. I.. I think I know what I want to do... I will go find out the truth. Then decided what to do next." The truth seems like it was going to hurt... A lot.. But she had to be brave and face it.

X-Caliber frowned, his strange magic rabbit question unanswered. He tilted his head, quietly mouthing to himself "Would they, though...?" He shrugged, then dropped the thought. At least the young woman seemed to cheer up a little... While Ferris was much more visibly pleased with her change in mood. He wouldn't have thought to put forth a rather... absurd question, but maybe sometimes the absurdity of a wandering thought was the right amount of shock a person needed to snap out of a funk.
"Thanks.. I.. I think I know what I want to do..." Krea smiled. "I will go find out the truth. Then decide what to do next."
X-Caliber's eyes lit up. "...Do you need help beating someone's ass, then?" He asked eagerly, almost hopefully. Ferris furrowed his brow, shooting him a sideways glance.
"Excuse his language-"
"Aw, don't coddle her, Ferris. It's embarrassing. We're all knights here! She can handle it. It's not even that bad of a word!" He let out a hoot of a laugh, then turned back to Krea. "...I am serious about fighting, though. Doing drills is getting boring, and I could use some excitement...!"
"Haa..." Ferris sighed, scratching his head. He really had no chance with girls so long as he was around, huh? He gave another resigned sigh, then smiled. "While I'm not exactly on board with jumping someone-"
"(I'm not saying we do that!)" X-Caliber protested.
"...If you do need help dealing with some kind of problem, then I'm also open to lending a hand." He nodded, then properly introduced himself. "I'm Ferris by the way, as my compatriot said earlier. And he's...." The young man trailed off. "...Do you really want to be introduced as X-Caliber?" He grimaced. "I don't mind it, but when I say it to someone else, it's kinda..."
"Arrogant? Hah!" The larger man waved a hand dismissively. "Blame my old friends for nicknaming me that! I've been using it long before I joined. Besides, the higher ups already have to call me King if they have to call us by last names!" He laughed again. "Anyway, if ya want my name, Demarcus is fine. Or Marcus. Or even just Mark. Whichever one you use, I'll figure out if you're trying to talk to me eventually!" He gave a hearty shrug, then finished the last of his food. "So! When're we fighting the guy who lied to you?"
