"Oh, trust me, I know." Jasmine stated with a roll of her eyes. It wasn't hard to tell that she wasn't the most impressed at the moment. However, the question was why, specifically.

"I don't know entirely what these do, but I'm willing to bet that to the non-human variety, it ain't pretty. I'd take one out, but... I doubt that'd go well." She added with a light sigh.

"So yeah. Thank you." she then said. "Because... I really don't want any trouble to befall anyone. At least nothing serious." All the while, there was some bitterness to her voice, but it wasn't identifiable why.

She was fuming that her sister had a hand in this, at all.

Jake was silent as he heard the bitterness in her tone, but figured that it maybe wasn't the best idea to mention it. It was never a good idea to tell an angry person that they were angry. Unless one wanted them angry at THEM as well.

So he just sighed.

"I understand." he told her, as Ty suddenly opened the door.

"Yes?" he asked.

"Escort her to Agent Sharp." Jake told him, gesturing to Jasmine.

"Can do." Ty responded.

"Thank you." was all Jasmine said before heading off with Ty. She made sure to keep the satchel of gems close to her though, as she really didn't want to risk them being lost, or dropped or something.

"You actually seem to be quite normal. I'm surprised." She commented bluntly.

"I ... thought it was all mages and non-humans here."

Ty just laughed out loud.

"We're 99.99% mages and non-humans here." he told her.

"I'M the .01%." he said further. "Among... a select few." he added.

"But I seem normal. That's the key word there. Seem." he continued.

"I assure you, my dear, I am FAR from 'normal'." he went on.

"And I'm sure YOU hide much behind your appearance as well."

"Don't we all?" Jasmine replied with.

"Seriously." she added. "Pretty sure everyone has something they hide, regardless of how big or small a thing it is." As they walked, she kept pace with him the entire time, but seemed... well, ansty.

Extremely antsyt, and her hand that was holding the satchel wasn't hidden by the long sleeves, but kept twitching.

"Honestly, I'll be happy to be out of here." She commented with a light sigh.

"I'm way too on edge."

Ty noticed this, and raised an eyebrow.

"...are you all right, young lady?" he asked.

"I can tell you're on edge." he said further. "You seem generally antsy, and your hand keeps twitching." he commented.

"And yes, this place is... overwhelming for those that are not used to it." he then went on.

"It's like that for everyone that first comes here... usually." he added.

"What has you SO on edge, anyway?" he asked.

"What I am." Was all Jasmine said in response.

"Don't worry about it. I'll be fine. I just want to get out of here, so that I don't need to worry about possibly hurting someone." She added honestly.

"And no, I don't think I'll be hurting anyone here. Even if I did, I'm on the way to the bossman, who from what I've been told could certainly handle me, as well"

"....what you are." Ty mumbled.

"...ah!" he then said.

"Well, don't worry TOO much about it." he told her. "We're a hunter-friendly place, as long as the hunter means no harm to us." he assured her.

"And yes, Agent Sharp IS quite the capable individual." he confirmed, before looking at the satchel again.

"Why are you here, anyway?" he asked.

"You're a new face. I've met a few hunters in the past, but you're certainly new to me." he commented.

"Because of what I bring." Jasmine answered honestly.

"I don't know what it is that can be done with them exactly, but at the very least this is probably the best place to find out what they do, what they can do, and everything." She added.

"So I'm here to drop them off, mainly."

"Huh, I see." Tyson responded.

"Well, fair enough." he said.

"We thank you for your help." he told her further, sighing.

"We can use all the help we can get." he mumbled.

"Some of our agents are going nuts, it seems." he growled.

"Yeah... so I've heard." Jasmine commented after a moment or two.

"Anyway, thanks for the walk." She said simply as they stopped outside of the door to Hal's office.

"At least, I'm guessing this is the place to be." She added with a chuckle. "as we stopped, and all."

Tyson nodded in response.

"It is." he told her.

"See ya." he said.

"See ya." Jasmine responded with a smile, before Tyson parted ways with her.

After a few seconds, and the receptionist buzzing the man behind the office door, she looked to Jasmine and nodded.

"Agent Sharp's waiting for you." she told her.

"Please go in."

Jasmine nodded before making her way into the office, closing the door, and leaning against it.

"Hi." she greeted.

"I have these, and I'm reasonably certain that they affect those that aren't human, or normal, or just not your standard run of the mill person." She said as she reached into the satchel and withdrew one of the brilliant blue gems, the same that the others had witnessed and tried to hold previously.

As she pulled it out though. Hal felt it.

Hal was immediately taken aback by the gem... because he could feel what it did. Even from over there, he was sensitive to what that thing could do. Or perhaps it was just the aggregation of a bunch of them together that was doing it. He'd guessed it was that.

"...hello." he responded.

"And... yes, I can certainly tell that those are... not to be messed with lightly." he commented.

"I get the feeling these will explain why some of my agents have been acted the way they have been." he went on.

"Thank you for bringing them." he said to her, before thinking about it.

"How did you find these? Or come into the information that these are the culprit?" he asked.

"As it stands, I'm not willing to divulge my source." Jasmine stated plainly.

"Primarily because I will take care of that issue myself. If I can't, then I'll bring them here." She added before dropping the gem back into the bag.

"You got somewhere that these can be placed to kept safe? I suspect that these are what is causing others here to .... not act like themselves." She continued as she tightened the drawstring of the satchel.

"You can keep 'em and study them all you want, hopefully you can find a cure/reversal."

Hal was silent again, before nodding.

"Yes." he said.

"I do." he told her, before turning his back to her and searching for a suitable containment unit.

As he did, though, he could feel his... latent urges... threatening to come forth. It seemed like he wanted so desperately to say something to her. Something... that he knew he'd regret.

So he bit his tongue, and focused on the search.

When he turned to give her what he'd found, he found the sea green haired lady was far too close, a blade in hand, and ready to stab him with it. He could feel it against his suit, even.

She didn't say anything, but he could see that her hands were shaking, and she wasn't running him through with the surprisingly long blade she had. After about thirty seconds, she let out a cry of frustration before pushing away from him,.

"Son of a BITCH!" she exclaimed before whipping her blade at the far wall, the point embedding itself about an inch deep.

"Just do whatever you want with those, I'm having a real hard time NOT taking you out where you stand." Her voice was biting, but there was definite frustration there.

"...." Hal was silent, before setting the metallic box onto the desk.

"Put them in there." he told her.

"Because I am having a VERY hard time not making you a literal plaything for my whims." he said darkly.

Jasmine narrowed her eyes, but dropped the bag into the box, and when Hal closed the lid on it, they both felt a sudden rush of clarity. Hal slumped forwards a little, and heaved a heavy sigh.

"That... was unpleasant, to say the least." he muttered.

"I apologise for my previous potentially threatening statement."

Jasmine was completely silent for a few seconds before shaking her head as she sank to the floor.

"Do it." She stated. "Seriously. Do it. I'd prefer that than dealing with my own sister." There was venom to her voice, but it wasn't like it had been before.

"Just... ugh." She muttered.

"So you've got them and can do the research you need." She then said as she got to her feet.

"Do what you need to, and don't sweat any potentially threatening statements. It's fine. I was the one who barely managed to hold back from attacking you, after all."

Hal shook his head.

"Well, you would have attacked me, but... I assure you, you would not have killed me." he told her.

"Not unless that blade has MUCH more to it than meets the eye..." he added, looking at the embedded blade.

"Please, take a seat and regain your composure." he offered.

"Also... your sister...?" he then asked her. "What, prey-tell, does your sister have to do with this?" he asked further.

Jasmine accepted the offer and sat in the chair, meaning to get the blade when she was feeling more stable, but before she could say anything more, she started to hear... something.

Something that chilled her and unnerved her... but she couldn't even make out, or understand or comprehend.
