==> Alex: Look around
You are doing just that, taking in your surroundings and trying to locate the source of the odd presence you felt earlier. You didn't even notice the two newcomers. "Hmmm... I know I felt that presence around here somewhere.... Now where did it go?"
==>
You, as the Thief of Void, continue walking carefully examining the darkness. "What even was that mysterious energy? I don't think I've ever felt a force like that before... How curious..."
And you've been around, so the fact that you couldn't recognize the energy said something.

==> Pieter: Recognize a someone.
You did. Was that... Bowser Jr? Couldn't really tell... Either way. You look at the others nearby. "Are you all okay?"

He sat there and watched as people hopped off the building, completely ignoring him. Well, that wouldn't end well...
"HEYY!!!!! DON'T IGNORE THE FUTURE KING OF THE KOOPAS YOU JERKS!!" he yelled, running after them and hopping off. Or at least he would have, if he didn't re-colect his scattered items first.
THIS TIME he ran after them, hopping off the building.

Evan shook himself off and tried to collect his thoughts, taking count of everyone he had run into so far. There was that little Koopa who seemed ticked off at him (he'd deal with that later), the being in the black suit and red armor, and these two Homestuck-looking guys. Already he had enough questions to fill a textbook.
He looked up at Pieter and replied, "Y-Yeah, I'm fine! Thanks!" Then he turned to Alex. "If you're looking for the demon I was fighting, I doubt he's here anymore. He likely used the shadows to teleport to somewhere he could regenerate in privacy."

"I'm good," the armored being replied calmly.
Orange visored eyes looked over to the dog and new human.
"What kind of demon are we talking about here?"

"That's a good question." Alex turned from the alleyway he was looking down, attempting to find a trace of the demon he was looking for, and turned to the young man before him. "He must've been a pretty tricky guy to be capable of teleportation. Don't let magic users fool you, that shit is way complicated."
Putting away his stave, Alex crossed his arms. "Make it quick, It might be prudent to get back on the search as soon as possible."

Pieter sighed lightly. "I can't sense it anywhere nearby... which is really saying something. Then again, if I tried to search too far I'd not get anything concrete. So what was that thing's deal, anyway?"

A very noticeable teapot-esque sound hit all of their ears. "DON'T INGORE THE UP AND COMING KING- BOWSER KOOPA!!!" the young prince roared, his face burning red. A single, enourmous fireball shot from his head, wizzing by them like a cannonball.

Evan gave everyone around him a quick, uncertain look, not sure who to trust. He soon decided that the situation was dire enough for drastic measures. If things took a turn for the worse, he'd let Carter chew him out later.
"His name is Sanguine," Evan explained. "He's one of four generals leading an army of inter-dimensional shadow demons called Præt'nos. They're constantly pursuing us in the hopes of stealing the... this, uh... special key that I'm charged to protect, but now-"
"WATCH IT!" Carter barked, prompting the duo to dodge Bowser's fireball in the nick of time.
"HEY, lay off, kid!" Evan shouted. "I got enough problems already!"

The suited being didn't seem phased.
"Sending a fireball at civilians and someone that is aligned to fire.... Are you an idiot?" they ask as the black wing arms catch light again.

Alex took in the story a moment, properly absorbing what he needed to about this current story. This demon, Sanguine by name, has gotten away with this odd key.... Whatever it was supposed to be... He wanted to ask what was so special about this key, however they were soundly interrupted by the arrival of-... Wait.... WHAT DID THE KID CALL HIMSELF?  "Bowser? " He quickly dodge-rolled out of danger and pulled out his Dream Catcher Racket. "Are we REALLY dealing with Baby Bowser right now?! How is he here?! This doesn't make any sense!" Well the island's certainly surprised him before. |

Pieter nodded as well... before ducking as the fireball whizzed past his head... though his hair ignited. "...Oh. I think I'm on fire..." He snapped his fingers, making a temporary vacuum around the top of his head, killing off the flames. "...And I guess that answers my question from earlier." He folded his arms. "Take a deep breath, kid; no sense in messing up your blood pressure." He pulled one of his trombone mutes from his sleeve.
"So, do you have any idea where that thing might've gone to?"

The tiny Tyrant hopped in place, his stack officially blown. "Hey! I told you not to ignore me!!!"
More small flames billowing from his mouth, he suddenly errupted into a flash of white, his fireballs suddenly much hotter than they were previously. The mysterious glow notwithstanding, he was ticked off and approaching fast.

"Oh, for crying out loud!" Evan was quickly getting fed up with Bowser's tantrum. Worse still, he couldn't do anything about it without the Paramount Key, and since getting that back was his top priority at the moment, that left little time to deal with the flame-spewing Koopa.
"Carter, take care of him!" Evan shouted as he turned and ran down the street, signaling for Alex and Pieter (and the suited being if he/she wanted) to follow him.
"On it!" Carter charged towards Bowser, but rather than attack, he decided to try a calmer approach first. So he laid down on the ground within the Koopa's field of vision and smiled at him in perhaps the most adorable way a dog could.

"Oh for crying out loud," the armored being commented. "Temper tantrum? Is that how a future king wants to be remembered?"
The being dropped down into a fighting stance.
"Maybe it's time we put you on ice," the being teased holding up what looked to a token of a clear crystal and replacing a red token on the belt.
