If Cold Steel's heart wasn't so cold and lifeless, he'd probably find the group of girls attractive.
Sapphire shoots her chain, coated in a volatile poweder of Lighntning dust at Cold Steel.
Without moving a muscle, Cold Steel reacts. A burst of blue energy coalesces around the front of his torso before blasting out at the chain, engulfing it in ice all the way up to the gauntlet all in an instant's time. He finally glances at her.
"So much rage, so little control. This is what you rely on for your protection?" He speaks, talking more to himself than to the group.

"D-did you just freeze Archangel?" She grins. "Oh it is on now!" She dashes towards, before melting the ice on the chain and gauntlet.

Cold Steel simply stares at her before a surge of blue energy channels down his legs and into the ground, forming a pillar that blasts her backwards, into the air, and probably off the building.

Sapphire dies, the impact killing her.
She is probably dead. She might actually survive if I decide to join this later. But for now, Sapphire is dead. With blood. Everywhere. Ew.

OOC: Aura is a thing and she wouldn't be dead. Maybe a few more of those would do it, but not one.
IC: Ruby is about to dive off the roof after Sapphire when she sees Yang, who is about to climb the building, catch her. She turns back to Cold Steel and says, "Please don't attack my team. To answer your question, my questions would ask what you knew about a group that might be hidden somewhere around here. They've been conducting attacks and thefts in Vale and we're trying to find them."

OOC: I killed her off because this got boring. And I wanted to see drama.
OOC: Then you're going to have to do better than that. Her aura would have kept her from dying from both the initial impact and the fall. For your sake though, we can say she was knocked out and just let her drop out of the story.

I can live with that, but the reactions on the chat were hysterical.

OOC: I just realized that CS doesn't know about aura but made an attack on that scale regardless... CS is such a jerk...
IC:
Ruby turns back to find Cold Steel vanishing over the edge of the building. He didn't see Yang, and he most certainly did not want to see their responses to Sapphire being blown off the building. He looks back to see Yang catch her and decides it's too late to turn back. The concepts of kindness and mercy are something he is no longer acquainted with.

Ruby says, "He's not going to tell us anything more than this. Let's check it out." She jumps of the building and uses her scythe to slow her descent by digging it into the wall. She starts heading in the direction the arrow pointed, waving for the other to follow.

They find the gaping hole and probably Argai if he's still there.
Argai puts up his hands. "I wish to deal with the local authorities in a calm and responsible manner!"
Yang says, "We're the best you've got. The only locals around here are Grimm."
Ruby asks, "What happened here?" while gesturing to the hole.
"I honestly don't really know." Argai looks at the hole again, then peers into it. "There was a fight between some things that looked... vaguely like you, and the person you were chasing. I think they were loading something onto a vehicle of some sort. Then I followed the other normal one up here."
It begins snowing very lightly throughout the city as Cold Steel attempts to sneak his way to the other side of the city via alleyways and rooftops. It snows more the closer one is to the Cryoborg as he finally stops in a dark alley in a more congested part of the city. Collapsing to the ground, he sits behind a dumpster as he begins to heal his wounds and regain his strength.
Bianca is awakened by the heavy snow, and the cold slowly rouses Sabel. It dawns on him, with much horror, he was separated from her.
"BIANCA! WHERE ARE YOU?"
He runs down the alley and from there takes more or less random turns to try to find his sister, who is meanwhile sitting on the ground trying to recover from her bruises.
Cold Steel, deciding that he needed to move, made his way up to the rooftop via sliding up the wall, from which he looked at what view of the city he had. This place, in many ways, seemed not unlike from where he came from. Blue energy coalesced in his hands as his emotionless eyes stared at the world around him with pure hatred. These people.. these humans... they were no different from those from whence he came, and for that, he planned on making them suffer, as his world had made him. Where to begin? At their strongest point. Bring down their protectors, tear them apart from the inside, send those they protected into panic, and watch as chaos ensued. However, to do this, he needed a plan, to create a plan he needed knowledge, for knowledge was truly the ultimate source of power.
