<div class="floatleft">(http://oi42.tinypic.com/n4bfxd.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Mathilde Delacroix<br/><strong>Location:</strong>Town<br/><strong>With:</strong>Shun, Destiny, Dieago, Yuri, Luna<br/><br/>Mathilde was uncharacteristically quiet once they reached the town park and Yuri showed them the fountain with the missing Tear, so dry that it literally broke parts off when he touched it. She tended not to talk as much when she was deep in thought, as she was right now. She was a great duelist, but her primary use for the Guild had always been as an investigator, where her brains and her time travel could truly come in handy. The best place to start with this case was finding a motive, but if she were to apply Occum's Razor, the motive was most likely vandalism. That meant any number of punks could have done it, but from that motive, it could go in two directions: it was either arrogance or revenge. If whoever did it was just trying to show off, that could be just about any of the familiar punks in the area. But what if it really was someone who had a grudge against the Fairy Tail? That narrowed it down a bit, assuming they had the time (well, she<em>always</em>had time) or the willingness to interview all of those people.<br/><br/>Before she could share these hypotheses, she was suddenly dragged in front of the fountain and offered as a prize to whoever could find the Tear. She blinked a few times as she processed what Shun had just done, glaring at her associate for a few seconds silently conceding that it was probably for the best. Though there was a bit of a flaw in her plan... "Um, Shun... Doesn't zis only get us ze help of ze men? And ze straight ones at zat? You should probably offer up ze boy, too," she suggested, gesturing toward Yuri. Surely he was handsome enough to be a reward for any ladies (and certain gents) who weren't interested in herself, Shun, and Destiny. Of course, the chance that anyone in this random crowd had any clue where the Tear had been taken was astronomically small...<br/><br/>But stranger things had happened.
