Marleybone: The Waste of Time.
He absolutely hated it.
Upon arrival, they were insistent about keeping the Krokonomicon safe and that he couldn't even see it. They also went on about 50 million things, which only got a noise of murderous intentions. He ended up leaving the museum in the middle of the guy's lecture, not having a care in the world about it. His mind was mush before something triggered his senses.
A Death Aura.
Oh no.
He attempted to track it, being unsuccessful. Someone called out to him, but he shut down his physical senses to focus on the Death Aura. Professor Blue was definitely there. But where? Where was he? He felt his shoulder being shakened. Could they not see that he was busy? He tried his best to focus, but the shaking was throwing his magic off. With a mental curse, he turned his physical sense back on before pulling away, seeing the Museum guide.
"Very rude, don't you think?" He sure hoped the look he got matched his answer. He wasn't going to answer you. The Marleybonians in Krokotopia were a lot nicer. The Death Aura was back, causing him to zone out once the guy tried to resume his lecture. Physical senses were turned off as he tried to track it. Again, no luck. He was sure the man was annoyed with him. Thankfully, when he zoned in, another voice cut off the guide.
"You are ringing the poor boy's ears off."
"I am bloody not."
"Sure. I'll be taking him to do something much more beneficial than listening to you. He doesn't seem to be the type to listen to blabbering of nothingness." Red felt a tug, which his feet instantly followed. Upon getting out of earshot, the second person spoke. "I have just the idea to get you in there. I don't know how successful it'll be, but I know your reasoning and we best be quick. Time to put that magic to use." He nodded instantly. Something that wasn't a lecture. He didn't mind Erika's, but that was as far as he would go.

Sherlock, the guy who helped him, pointed him to the O'leary Gang, hoping to see if Blue had set them up with anything. And he did. A one way ticket out of jail for the most dangerous mastermind in the world. Green. Lovely.
Wattson, Sherlock's partner in crime, was a little sad, but decided to get Red's mind locked onto something else. After Red got another criminal locked up, Wattson led him through another criminal's lab, learning that he had been asked to supply Blue and Green with an army of Robots.

Red was not impressed with the set up at the Museum.
They clearly didn't add Green into the equation. Red could only stare at them as they tried to explain themselves, only getting shut down by Sherlock. He quickly dealt with the two counterweights before climbing the Clock Tower.
Upon reaching the top, his expression stayed unimpressed when he saw Blue with the Krokonomicon. Instead of backing down from the powerful Death Master, he simply turned his own aura on, eyeing the duo. Blue scoffed.
"I'll leave this to you." That was his mistake. The second Blue teleported, Red let the storm out. The robot and undead that were with Green stood no chance while she was taken down just as quickly. A vine escaped his wand as he dragged her downstairs.

After turning her into the police and watching the museum staff try to defend themselves, he left for Wizard City. The Headmaster hummed.
"This isn't good... Oh well. Head back for class. You've done more than enough."

Duncan helped him relax. Between the Death Aura from Krokotopia and Blue's in Marleybone, he felt sick. Nolan was able to help as well, helping him catch up on work he missed and getting him fresh air whenever he lost energy. He thanked both of them before retiring to bed. He then went deep into thought.
Blue was definitely planning something. But what?
