Multiverse legend of Kurumi Tokisaki

In the display case I am looking at is an old antique flintlock pistol . Most of the weapon is made of nice hardwood . The barrel and flintlock mechanism parts of the weapon are made of steel which has been plated with bronze.

'Perfect style for me'

I think while trying to solve the problem of how to open the display case. I let my shadow fall into the display case through the glass. On the other side of the display case from my shadow appears a hand that takes the weapon and retreats back.

'So simple'

I smile receiving the weapon from the clone hand. I slowly examine it in my hand.

'Now to find the information '.

My smile is replaced by seriousness. With gun in hand I walk deeper into the museum.

Pov 3 person

In a dimly lit corridor in the museum moves a young girl who holds an antique gun in her hands. With her current dirty and ragged clothes in the accompanied by of the dark corridor with the gun in her hands resembles a ghost from nightmares .

"Only the second floor is left ".

The girl whispers to herself and slowly climbs the stairs to the second floor of the building.

"Exhibition of military uniforms"

"Exhibition of old maps"

The girl slowly searches room after room.

"Where are all the guards or people in this museum? "

Whispering to herself, she walks down the corridor and approaches slowly to the last door .

"Trivia Vanille daughter of one of the city councilors."

"Even though you partially changed your hair color it still not enough."

"You simply had to look carefully at the footage from the store and compare it with the photos from the police poster to know who you were . "

A woman's voice is heard behind the last door.

"Of course you robbed us little bitch but such an amount of money is not a problem."

"Besides, it's the fault of these idiots that they allowed themselves to be robbed."

"Of all things, you are the one who is valuable "

"Somehow the xiong family has been gaining a considerable amount of money from the dust lately. "

"We don't know much but we do know that someone from the city council must be helping them "

" And it just so happens that the head of the xiong family was recently at your daddy's house so he must be helping them in some way "

"We just need to figure out how and for now you will act as our bargaining chip "

"Madam lil will surely reward me for it ".

The woman goes on talking excitedly and laughing in this one-sided dialogue. And the black-haired girl listening to the conversation has a confused expression on her face but after a moment of thoughtfulness her face takes on an expression of realization.

"I have to call so keep an eye on her".

The woman says and in response a deep male voice replies.

"Understood."

The door to the room suddenly opens almost hitting the black-haired girl. However, this gives her cover so that she is now hidden between the wall and the door. A woman in a suit with a scroll in her hand walks through the door without closing them she continues walking.

The girl lets out the breath she had unconsciously been holding the whole time.

(???) pov

'Didn't she see me? '

I slowly lean my head out of the door looking into the room.

' This is the museum curator's office.

Across from the front door is an oak desk with several documents.

The right wall has several tall windows reaching from floor to ceiling.

The entire wall on the left is filled with books and parchments.

And the only light in the room is provided by several candles lying around the room .

'You have to admit that the room has an atmosphere '

I think to myself appreciating the style of the office. However, the most important thing in the room are the two people in the office. My little mouse tied on a chair in the middle of the room I can see that she can see me so I put my finger to my lips signaling her to be quiet. Across from her sits the same bear faunus that kidnapped her.

'There is no option that I will knock him down '.

'He's about two meters tall and a big lump of muscle.'

My thoughts are interrupted by a sudden movement of the bear faunus.

"Where was it? "

Faunus says to himself getting up and walking over to one of the book shelves on the right.

"I have it "

He says pulling out a bottle of alcohol, from between the books. Faunus returns and sits down in his chair opposite the pink-haired girl.

"You're not going to tell the boss that I've been drinking? "

The man starts laughing at his own joke. In response the pink-haired girl rolls her eyes.

"Daddy got you in trouble? "

The man asks sarcastically, finishing his laughter and opening the bottle.

"You're not the first and not the last "

" You see I was born on Menagerie my father liked to drink and run up debts eventually his debts passed on to me and I had to join the syndicate to pay myself off ".

The man begins to tell the story while sipping from the bottle.

"What about those eyes? "

"Are you wondering why I'm talking to you? "

"I just feel sorry for you girl shouldn't rich and important assholes like your family have a luxurious life? "

Asks the faunus pink-haired girl. Seeing her lack of interest he sighs and continues.

"I won't bore you with this, but the city manager's daughter lives and steals on the street?"

" This world is twisted isn't it".

The man continues talking finishing the last sentence with a slight giggle. In the meantime while he continues the conversation I start thinking how to get my partner out of trouble.

"Looking at this situation even I can see that your father is not interested in you "

" Anyway, that's not important in the end the point is that you are the one who will pay for the sins of your father".

Says the man as I gently point my head toward the door.

"However, you have no idea how many resources we wasted to find you ".

" At the time we were looking for you I wasn't able to make money ".

He says putting the bottle aside and getting up from the chair again.

"I have to take a piss wait and don't go anywhere."

With one last sarcastic remark the guy leaves the room. I again hide between the door and the wall allowing the guy to pass. When I don't hear his footsteps anymore I peek behind the door, without seeing him I enter the room from my hiding place and immediately walk towards my little mouse .

"Are you okay? "

I say when the girl nods in confirmation . I walk over to the desk and pick up the sharp letter knife on the desk. I turn to the girl slowly cutting the ropes restraining her body. Releasing her the girl with my help slowly gets up from the chair.

'She has an open wound on her head.'

"Can you use the illusion ? "

I ask, but to my disappointment the girl denies with a nod and condemns the small wound on her neck.

' They injected her with something.

' But what? '

'A sedative? '

' It seems to me that even while under the influence of a sedative she should be able to use Semblance '

" Can you use the aura? "

I ask again and this time I get a positive answer.

"We have to get out of here and we don't have time to leave quietly so we just surround our body with aura then get out by the window and with the help of parapets come down on the ground ".

"I'd rather jump from the window and twist my ankle or in the worst case scenario break my leg than risk being caught or killed by the syndicate".

At my idea the girl nods.

"Great plan ladies "

" I'm impressed, despite the fact that there's practically no one here you still managed to get in through the locked door and bypassed the cameras ".

" Not to mention that you found this place at all".

" However, you forgot that I'm a faunus , so hiding behind a door doesn't matter to me with such a characteristic smell ".

Suddenly a deep voice came from the side of the door when my head turned towards the door to my horror my hearing was not wrong . In the doorway was standing a two-meter tall bear faunus looking at us with a serious face while simultaneously locking the door behind him.
