Black and Blue

A Shattering Performance
The cries of seagulls echoed across the empty sky as the heavy sounds of civilization pierced the silent seas. The hustle and bustle of the everyday residents of Pandora as they continued about their usual business was the first welcoming sight that greeted Jacquotte Delahaye as her small wooden dinghy she had commandeered from a group of fisherman a while back struck the ship harbor. Sitting up and kicking off her blanket, Delahaye stifled a yawn as she stretched and shook her sleepy limbs awake. Rubbing the last bit of sleep from her eyes, she finally took in the sight before her before a smirk broke out on her face.

"Pandora, the Everlasting Island" Delahaye muttered to herself in excitement, having been dying to arrive at this island for the last few weeks. "This is it!" She continued to mutter as she stepped from her small boat onto the pier. "This is where my legend will begin, where I’ll finally begin chasing my ambitions!!".

Making sure to retrieve her precious weapon Dawn from the small boat, Delahaye began to make her way inside the harbor town of the island. As she continued to her destination, she unintentionally garnered plentiful attention from both genders, some would argue that it was bound to happen due to her risky yet sexy attire and her beautiful looks, others would say it was due to the massive cross-shaped sword she carried, however most would agree that the one feature that garnered the most attention was her striking and unique sapphire colored hair.

Despite all the attention she had gathered, Delahaye paid them no heed but instead stayed focus on her targeted destination. The infamous Jewel of Pandora, a large hotel that houses some of the wealthiest patrons from all over the four blues, a place filled with the untold riches that the many patrons brought and later donated to the hotel. However despite what one might thing, Delahaye held very little interest in the riches instead what she was after was something that most people assumed and chalked up to as a rumor. What she was after was Pandora’s Box, a mythical Artifact that is said to hold the power to equal one of the ancient weapons. While many scoff at such claims, she knew better after all her own father was one of the select few who actually had the privilege to work on the safe that guarded the box.

Normally getting into the Jewel was nearly impossible due to its rather exclusive list of clients, however luck was on her side as the owners had opened up the hotel to all in celebration of it’s 30th anniversary. Glancing down at the flier about a musical concert in her hand as well as the invite she had stolen from some arrogant noble, she was barely able to contain her excitement. "It all begins today."
