~"I would sooner die on my feet then live on my knees"~
~The Flying Courage Carriage 8"~
Naomi gave a respectful nod as Esterfania excused herself from the conversation, "Thank you" she replied softly before watching her leave. 'What an interesting young woman' she thought to herself, turning to look out the window as she revisited some of the details from their conversation. She hadn't really had many opportunities to converse with people like that, not through lack of trying but she'd found people were often too busy or unwilling to talk with a complete stranger.
She exhaled softly and once again closed her eyes, returning to her previous state of calming relaxation as she allowed her mind to wonder between the peripheries of sound that echoed throughout the steam powered machine. She'd have remained in that state for a while had she not been disturbed by some unsettling sounds coming from the other end of the carriage, causing her to furrow her brow slightly as she listened intently.
'How odd... she thought to herself before raising from her seat, the perception she'd explained to Estefania earlier taking it's effect as she processed the sounds she was hearing, sounds which flagged on her mind and convinced her something wasn't quite right. She pressed her hands on the door and slid it open before slowly and cautiously peeking around the corner, seeing the open areas of the carriage with the many people seated. She narrowed her eyes as she saw the scene before her.
It appeared that four men were ordering the seated civilians to give up their possessions, demanding they empty 'everything' into the bags they held in front of them. Naomi felt uneasy and briefly looked back into the carriage to where her belongings were situated, the many maps she'd procured now at risk of being stolen. 'I can not permit this' she thought to herself, walking over and gathering them into her bag before stepping out of her booth.
"Hey you!" a strong voice called to her from behind as she closed the door behind her, "Hand over your bag, now!" he stepped forwards, the other three of what she assumed to be his comrades taking little notice, apparently having confidence in his ability. Naomi said nothing at first, but turned in his direction as she contemplated her options. After a moment more she eventually responded, "I'm afraid I can not do that" she replied, causing the man to raise an eyebrow.
"Then me and you are about to have a big problem" he said before reaching to his side to pull what she suspected was a sidearm. Naomi clenched her fists as she raised them in front of her, exhaling as she pulled focus. The windows would begin to frost over and the temperature inside the carriage would drop at a quick rate. Soon enough the temperature dropped to a level which caused peoples breath to plume in a cloud in front of them with each exhale.
This time the other three were paying attention, having noticed the dramatic change in environment and now seeming to look at her suspiciously. "Girl you don't want this fight, I don't know what you think you're up to but there's four of us and one of you" he warned as the others moved into reinforcing positions behind him. Naomi knew the odds weren't in her favor, after all these didn't look like regular thieves, but she couldn't part with her maps when there was so much at stake.
Without a word she'd exhale before her arms moved in a quick fluid motion, water materializing from the moisture in the air to form two water snakes that circulated in the air beside her. The two water snakes would combine and compress into a large ball of water, it's shape changing till it made a fist which hardened into ice. Naomi stepped forwards and threw her right fist in a punching motion, the fist of ice hurtling towards the first hijacker. As it traveled she was already preparing her follow up attack.
