Ren sighed inwardly, he should not have gotten his hopes up. "But wasn't that Vanessa's fault?" They were at a row of vending machines which sold practically any kind of basic necessity that one could ask for. He himself bought meals from the machine, when he was sick or too lazy to walk out for a meal. However, Alyssa had stated that the ready-to-eat meals were unhealthy as "you do not know how much preservatives they put in the meals from the vending machines." Every time the officer came over, she would get annoyed at the fact that Stella was still eating from the vending machines.<br/><br/>He laughed, "Whatever suits you then! I think your brother would be waiting for you." He walked over to one of them and peered at each of the options. He decided on one and tapped his card on the scanner and pushed a button of his choice.<br/><br/>He collected the plastic case which was still warm, as though just cooked.<br/><br/>Ren stood back to allow Stella to make her purchases. Just then a familiar figure appeared in the distance. It was Vanessa. The girl who had found her newfound powers extremely interesting compared to Stella. This was probably because she was a level zero prior to her becoming a blood warp.<br/><br/>Also, she seemed to have little inhibition in finding the slightest excuse to use her blood. Which resulted in her and Stella getting chased from the restaurant. As the girl jogged over, Ren had a slight inclination to see her fall. And fall she did, but she did not hit the ground, instead two crimson tendrils pushed her back to her feet and retracted into seams on her fore arms. "Hello!" She said cheerfully as she rotated the box filled with fifteen chicken nuggets to make sure everything was alright with her meal.
