Sacramento, California. Of all the places she could have been sent for a mission, it had to be one of the sunniest in world. The task itself was simple enough: travel back in time and prevent a theft from taking place. But it was mid-summer and the weather was the perfect example of what humans would refer to as a ‘beautiful day’. For Rima, it was just an inconvenience. The sun was far too bright, her eyes were beginning to hurt and she knew she would start to burn if she didn't hurry up and finish this job. The only thing she could be somewhat grateful for was the time of day. It was early; early enough that the majority of humans were still asleep so the street was still moderately empty. A nice contrast to the usual squealing she had to deal with back home.
“SOMEBODY STOP HIM!!!!!"
…or not. She winced slightly at the detection of a sudden high pitched scream through her sensitive ears and turned, somewhat exasperatedly, to face the direction in which the sound had come from. Stumbling gracelessly through the streets was a young and wealthy looking woman. A few metres ahead she could also see a man hurrying just as desperately away from the woman and carrying a bright red handbag that certainly did not fit in with the rest of his image.
“Guess I’ve found my target…” She murmured to no one in particular. The vampire didn’t bother to reach for the ribbon tied around her neck; the thief seemed (and smelt) human which meant her natural speed and power would be more than enough for this job. Sure enough, the man looked up seconds later to find Rima stood directly in his path, almost as if she had just appeared out of nowhere, wearing an expression that screamed ‘disinterested’ but a stance which showed no intent of moving out of his way.
“…that doesn’t belong to you, does it?” The actual mission wasn’t a particularly big deal to her, but the sooner she finished it, the sooner she would be able to get out of the sun.
