Defender of Tomorrow

" Then I guess you'd be willing to start right away? After all, the sooner we get this becoming a pattern for you the better it will be. " 

One delicate, slippered foot came to press against his chest none too gently. She was far more powerful than she looked. “Which one of us won’t be standing again?”

However, Jayce was a hardened man, especially when it came to violent ladies. Which the League seemed to have a plethora of. 

He reached forth a hand in protest against her to stop with this nonsense. 

" Woah there, foxy.  I guess this mean you're really up for the task and eager to go. " 

  So friendly! This was how a true Hero was supposed to be. Eagerly the manatee shook his hand in return, the smile being returned with a curl of his mouth.

"Really?!" That’s the first time someone actually said that he could be a champion, instead of telling him it was a stupid dream, that the peaceful race of manatee’s were not meant to be champions, and that someone couldn’t join the League.

And suddenly, unaccounted for, he was assaulted by a row of questions. Jax? Yeah Jax is a good guy but he haven't really been top-tier in the league for quite a while. Oh? How did Urf not know Jayce was a champion of the League himself? Well he was gonna answer these questions none the less.

He clapped his own chest and smiled widely, pointing at himself with his thumb.

" My favourite champion, is myself! Jayce - The Defender of Tomorrow! Piltover's Hero and the best scientist in all of Runeterra! " 

He let out a hearty laugh, bending down on hes knees and putting his hands on his kneecaps as he leaned forward looking at the manatee with an amused face.

To be honest she didn’t think he could do it. Not on his own. “Then you have my help. I do not think you can do it alone and I certainly want to get out of here.” How could one not use an assassin?

"Do you think so?" Sure that she could pull off quite the look? Really? Wasn’t her current appearance proof enough that she could could pull off quite the look? Especially with how he was behaving a moment ago. "But next to my sister I suppose it doesn’t really matter, does it?" A heavy sigh escaped. Maybe this was just her way of fishing for compliments. "I mean I’m sure you’d rather have fun with my sister too, right?"

He kept his charm on, staying on Cassiopeia's good side is more likely far more beneficial than having someone who can spit acidic poison on your face as an enemy. 

" But of course. There are those far less appealing than you, the list is large. 

And well, I would lie if I said your sister is not quite the looker. But you're comparing apples to pears right now, milady. " 

If he could he would've pat himself for his utterly clever statement. Since Katarina was red like an apple and Cassiopeia green like a pear. Well played Jayce, well played.

Figuring out what to do with the situation. He moved in closer and put his hands on her shoulder. Keeping her tail in mind. A lash from that would probably feel like being smacked by a golem.

Was that a serious question, it sounded like he already knew the answer. “No, I just came here for a vacation away from Prince Jarven and the rest of the Demacian army, especially those I’m in charge of.” Did he really think she would be here if she wasn’t stuck? A hand placed on her hip, weight resting on that leg.

" Oh so now I piqued your interest? " He responded sound as hurt as possible. His arms crossed as he turned to his side. 

" I'm gonna build a machine of course. A inter-dimensional warp gate that we all can waltz into and land somewhere in Runeterra. Simply really, for someone like me that is. "

"I don’t want anything, personally," he shakes his head, keeping himself still; arms still raised defensively. "We’re not allies, and I’m aware we never will be— but I’ve already spoken with a few of the other champions and they’ve decided it’s best we put our heads together to get out of here. That is of course, unless you think you’re so great as to get everyone out yourself."

But no matter how he looked at it, two bodies work faster than one. Jayce did still need sleep, did Viktor even need such things? That man was more machine than man. Inside his head there was a struggle between his personal pride and reasoning. 

He gave off a heavy sight. As if he was chewing on the most bitter words he ever were to use in this combination.

" I suppose.... The research on how to get back would go faster with another scientist. "

It's not like Viktor was gonna ask for payment for this. It was essentially free manpower. And despite Jayce personal feelings, pretty damn good manpower for the task at hand. Who knows how far Viktor have augmented himself. His brain was probably like a super computer. 

"For someone so smart, you really are dumb." Lifting her knee up she slammed it into his chin. Now she could have been crueler but the amount of strength she put it her knee kick was just enough to get him to fall backwards. Straightening herself up a boot was placed on his chest as to hold him down. Leaning forward and she smirked. 

"You look better lying on the ground." 

Of course, he only played dumb for now. Jayce enjoyed playing around. Sometimes it did end up biting him back, but oh is it worth it by the end of the day. 

As she leaned forward he quickly twisted his body to make her foot lose even the slightest of balance. It's a good thing he was wearing thick clothing. As the foot toppled he grabbed it by the ankle and pulled her down next to him using his impressive strength. Those pecks and muscles were not for simple show after all. 

Rolling on top of Katarina. He grabs her as quickly as he can by her wrists and locked her legs with his own. Leaving any limb of hers free would probably be the death of him, literally. She was an assassin of highest caliber in the end.
