Only a day since his transfer and Ryo was already screwing up. Though one might commend such attempted heroics, chasing a thief into the mines was probably one of the most foolish things he could have done. Well, he was already lost. It wouldn't do him much harm to keep looking... How had this all happened anyway?
"Some transfer... They won't even let me work. What's the good of just sitting around here anyway? It's not like I'm going to hurt anybody. Eh... Well, not intentionally." All he could do was slump back against the wall. That damn thief! This was all his fault.

Zac was off in his own world at this point, examining the prize he'd stolen not too long ago from the Stamarian Empire. Its blade was curved and graye, the crossguard yellow in color and curved upwards, with the same symbol a Zack's' crest in its center. The handle was also yellow, had a small spike at its bottom, with blue cloth wrapped around the middle of the handle itself. Odd combination, but it worked. Elegant, if a bit loud.
But just why was the crest there? As far as the boy knew, the symbol had been unique to him, until now atleast. It was a bit troubling, but at the same time, maybe answers of his past could be found deeper in? Probably wouldn't be good to ask after the stunt he'd pulled, though. Speaking of which, just where had he wandered off to anyway? A cave? A mine? How the hell'd he end up here?

...Ryo's mouth was gaping. Had that thief really just wandered right past the barracks!? Needless to say, Ryo gave chase, knocking over several people in the process. It wasn't long before he was just a few feet behind him. "Hey you thief, stop right there!" He actually thought it was going to work.

"Uh..." Zac scratched the back of his neck as some weird guy who seemed familiar rushed at him. Wait! This plan he just had could work! "Oh hello. I'm totally not a thief. Just the local snack food seller here to wish you a good time. How are you?" The people Ryo had knocked over didn't seem to care about what was going on too much, but what of the giant himself?

"Oh, well I'm having a fine time. What about-" cutting short, he punched the thief square in the face. Hitting the kid had felt better than it should have... "Don't play games with me! You know very well what you've done. Now hand over that sword before I make you."

The boy didn't seem to mind all too much that he's just gotten jacked right in the forehead, seeing as how he got up right after and started poking at the snazzy bracelet the knight seemed to be wearing now. "Hey neat man. Where'd ya get it? I can I have it?" This was starting to become a battle of wits, I tell ya.

An idea then hatched within his head. "...How about we trade? They're certainly making a big fuss over this bracelet. In fact, they would probably just forget about you once the sword is returned." They wouldn't, but why play fair with a thief?

And then the thief was a smoke-stack.

The negotiation failed, Ryo gave chase deeper into the mine until the light seemed to vanish. Well, it was abandoned. Not as though such old light sources would still be going. He could try and fight a generator, but priorities come first. "Show yourself you wretched little coward!"

There's just no decent people in the world anymore, is there? The boy seemed to've lost his pursuer, but you could never be too sure. Why was one measly sword so important anyway? Sure it had a cool design and all, maybe'd sell for a decent price, but just one weapon? Bah. As he ran, Zac soon came to a dead end, just wonderful.

Luckily, Ryo had stumbled upon one of the generators in his pursuit. Soon enough, the section of the mines they were plodding around in lit up. "I'm telling you to hand over the sword! Do you really think anybody is going to let you get away with this?"

"Uh..." The kid was drawing a blank at first, but then got an idea. Pointing the blade at the soldier, the thief announced "Hey man! This sword has a secret power! So if ya don't back off, I'll let it loose on ya!" The bluff was made more obvious by how Zac was waving the weapon around, showing he had little experience. But hey, worth a shot.

Ryo was baffled. Was this really the thief that managed to sneak into the storage facility with little difficulty? Even he knew how to hold a weapon, but this kid was blindly waving it around in the air! All of these problems and worries came not from a spy, but from some kid who just got lucky! Perhaps if he gave the child a bit of a scare... "So you're going to kill me, huh? I suppose self defense is my only recourse." Working up some magic, he held his hand forward, launching a rather large sphere of light at the thief.

Oh... crap.
On reflex. Zac duck and roll'd the best he could, just barely getting out of the way of the blast. So, yeah, bluffing hadn't worked. Shoulda known that'd be too obvious.
But luckily, the blast did blow out the wall behind him, revealing another tunnel. Hey, convenient. The boy looked at his pursuer and gave him a mocking two-fingered salute. "Later bro!" he called, then running off into the new passageway.
What was even the point of these mines anyway? No one seemed to realoly be digging around in 'em anymore, and the paths turned and twisted so much that it was like they were looking around for something at random. Eh, too bad the kid hadn't read the description topic in the section.

With little delay, he began to chase after the thief again. However, they were moving further from the light and back into darkness. "Just how stupid are you!? Is your life worth as little as that weapon!?"
