RP LIST: Ayuuria, Comical1, LunieLu, Remix, Rufus, Maruyasha-sama
<Comical1> It was nearly dawn, the sun was on the brink of rising and the clouds had the purple-red underbellies of overripe grapes. Caitlin was tiptoeing her way quietly through the streets of the Red Guild. She had added a shaw to her outfit since leaving the card club earlier that night. It was a bit dewy out in the morning and she wanted to avoid feeling too clamy. Looking around with alert eyes, she sought the personage of Free's whom she'd arranged to meet at this ungodly hour, while maintaining a lookout for unsavory characters in the shadows who might find it most opportune to take advantage of a young woman in the empty hours before sunup.
<Ayuuria> *The streets were empty as Free made his way back towards the Entertainment guild. He rode his skatecycle like usual but he found himself still yawning once in a while from having to wake up so early in the morning. It was unusual for him to have to meet up with someone this early in the morning. Sometimes he was heading to bed at this time if had a mission that night*
<Comical1> Caitlin thought she heard the sound of wheels on cobblestone, but before she could try to locate the direction the sound was coming from, a gloved hand snaked out of the shadows closest to the building on her left and latched onto her bicept with steel strength. A sound, like a hiss, sprang goosebumps on the back of her neck as the stranger pulled her under the awning of the building he was beneath and hid them both in the shadows. Caitlin wanted to scream, but she couldn't find enough air in her lungs to muster up one, so instead she whispered "how dare you," before the creep covered her mouth with his other hand.
<Ayuuria> *as he neared the entertainment building, he began to look around for the Cait but didn't see her around anywhere* Huh? That's odd... *he scratched his head a little but rode around still, at a slower speed now*
<Comical1> Enraged that she had been caught off guard, and was at a very disappointing disadvantage, Caitlin tried to pull her sword from her hip but her body was too close to her opponent to get enough elbow room to draw. She tried to peer up in the dark to see if she recognized him but there was no way to tell. One thing she did know... he was tall... huge, in many ways, and she wasn't going to muscle her way out of this situation.
<Ayuuria> *at one point, Free just stopped and looked around with a partially confused look on his face* Maybe she's not here yet but... *She didn't seem like the type of person to come late. At the moment, it seemed it was only him and a stray dog in the alley... a stray dog. An idea struck in the young man's and he called the dog, leaning down and putting his hand out. The dog only looked at him with disinterest at first but after a few minutes it finally came to him. He smiled as he pet the dog casted Charm beast on* I have someone I need you to go find...*the dog wagged it's tail a little* Alright, I need you find a young lady with blonde here. Just scout the around and if you find her, come back to me but if she's in some sort of trouble, start barking and help her.*he said and sent the dog off after patting its head a few times*
<Comical1> Caitlin's captor didn't really say anything, not so much as make a single demand, he just leaned forward and sniffed her hair like a wild animal. is this guy for real? Caitlin wondered. She tried to speak, but his hand cupping her mouth was gripping her face tightly and left no room for her to form words. So, she tried to kick, swinging both feet manically, but only for about two seconds before she realized that she was far more outmatched than she had at first realized. He wasn't just big... he was skilled too... he had moved too quickly for a giant his size, dodging her kicks and even countering them to step on both her booted feet, causing small tears to pop at the corners of her eyes from the sudden pain.
<Comical1> the behemoth leaned slowly forward and put his mouth right next to Caitlin's ear. She tried to jerk away in defiance but it was a vain act, since her head didn't tug even a milimeter in the direction she wanted it to... which was the direction away from him. "You listen to me, woman" a dark voice spoke at last, "I expect you to walk nice and calm with me where I say and don't ask questions. If you can not do this, then it will be no trouble to haul your arse there, wether I carry you over one shoulder or drag you by your feet, are we clear?"
<Ayuuria> The dog trotted around the alley, sniffing the ground as it did before he caught the sent of people. Following the trail swiftly, it found Cait along with her captor and began to bark loudly along with growling *He had only been waiting a few minutes before he heard the dog barking and immediately got his skatecycle and rode towards the sound of the dog*
<RemixedMagic> [Flos decided to take another trip in a different part of the city. He whistled a happy tune to himself as he walked down the road.] (He's heading in Free's direction.)
<Comical1> the shadowy stranger was just about to release her mouth to allow her to answer when he heard the growl of a dog in the street, he glanced over to see it staring him down and barking loudly. "Times up," he told Caitlin without even allowing her to choose the easy or the hard way. The dog choose for her, and it was going to be the hard way. He grab the girl around her waist and tossed her over one shoulder while ducking under the awning and emerging into the pre-dawn light. He had straight black hair, shoulder length but brushed back and tucked behind his ears. His skin was a sallow, yellowish color, and his eyes so dark brown that they too looked black. He wore winter clothing, even though it had been extra warm lately. He looked both left and right in case there were people around to notice the dogs noise making before turning down the nearest alley with the dog chasing his heels.
<Ayuuria> *Not really paying attention to anything else around him, Free rode as fast as he could towards the dag barking and it didn't take too long before he saw the dog chasing after the man and on his shoulder... Cait! He looked surprise but began to pick up his speed some more*
<RemixedMagic> "Whoa!!" [Flos jumped out of the way as something fast zipped by. That was close!] "H-hey! Slow down next time!" [he called out. Not that it probably mattered.]
<Comical1> was bobbing painfully on the brutes shoulder, no tender care being taken with his galloping run as his shoulder slammed into her stomach again and again. Regardless of the sudden urge to vomit, Caitlin was free to speak her mind at last and boy would she! "Put -Me -Down -You -Over -Bearing -Bull -Headed -Bastard!" her words sinc'd with each jab of his shoulder. "I'm -Going -To -Kill -You -when -I -Get -Down!" she vowed. The dark haired man actually chucked deep in his throat "then why would I put you down?" he answered easily, as if he wasn't sprinting a thousand miles an hour"
<Comical1> "Gee, aren't you just so funny, I bet with that attitude, I really wont get to kill you" she commented snarkily, "Because I'm sure I'd have to wait in line to take a shot at you!"
<Ayuuria> *he was able to gain enough speed that passed the kidnapper and came to a sudden stop right in front from him. He hoped that it should slow him down enough for the dog to bite him* "You know, it's not nice to be treating a woman so roughly "
<Comical1> "Free?" She asked as she and the bear she was riding came to a dead stop. From a zillion to zero in 2.5 seconds. She felt like all her internal organs slammed against each other.
<Ayuuria> * 'Perfect' he thought with a grin as the dog came up and bit the kidnapper... on the rump.*
<Comical1> just then, the 'bear' gave a very UNmannly cry of pain and Caitlin heard the snarling of a dog, as it latched on and refused to let go of the mans trousers. "Git'off Git'off" he demaned as he tossed Caitlin to the ground and reached around to grab the dogs neck. He squeeze and the mutt yelped with pain and let go of his bite. The man pulled the dog in front of him and was just about to punch the poor creature in the face when...
<RemixedMagic> [Flos turned his head to some very loud sounds that were coming from behind him. He anxiously gulped. It would be day soon, but even so it was still a little dark out. Should he go check it out? No, that's a stupid idea! It would be too dangerous. . . . But maybe he should do it anyway. He can be quiet enough. Flos let out a deep breath as he stealthily made his way to the noises.]
<Ayuuria> *Freestyle ran up and punched the guy square in the face before he could punch the dog that had helped him out. Free called the dog over and petted it for a moment* Thanks. *he smiled* Now get going before he hurts you anymore *with that the dog ran off the way it came from. Free then went over to Cait* You alright?
<Comical1> Caitlin looked up and saw Freestyle offer his hand to help her up. She accepted it, glad to be off the dirty ground. As she stood she realized her ribs felt tremendously bruised and bet that under her corset she would find that they literally were. Her captor had staggered back against the brick wall of the alley's surrounding buildings, but now he had recovered from the punch Free delivered square in his face. His nose was dripping a little bit of blood, and it looked somewhat crooked. The blood, Caitlin noticed, was not red... it was black- as black as his hair and as black as his eyes. He wasn't human. Caitlin drew her sword, expecting he wasn't going to walk away very nice nice.
<RemixedMagic> [Flos arrived at the scene and immediately ducked behind a wall, really more afraid than he was before. WhydidhedothisWhydidhedothisWhydidhedothis. He peeked around the wall and looked at the scene, trying to get a glimpse of who the bad guy would be so he could avoid them. Little did he know that his eyes would be giving off a light-orange glow in the dark.]
<Ayuuria> Hmm? You're that guy who's been wanted for kidnapping and raping innocent women. *giving a disapproving look and wasn't sure what to do until he saw something in the shadows out of the corner of his eye (another NPC). He smiled, knowing full well who it was and grabbed Cait's hand* Let him go, the police will catch him soon enough. *'Well... more like my guild will kill him before that' he though*
<Comical1> before they got more than two steps away, all three were distracted by a strange pair of glowing orbs bobbing around the darker end of the alley, the end of the alley the increasing sunlight hadn't touched yet. "Another witness, can't leave more of those hanging around" the villian bellowed as he ran past Cait and Free to snatch up poor Flos who was only trying to stay hidden. "Free, I know him!" Caitlin shouted as he began running toward the sunlight, "We can't leave him, I know him, he's the fiddler!"
<LunieLu> Elowyss was on her way home from a guild meeting when she had heard an awful racket half way down the market street, curious as to what the whole commotion was about, she had decided to quickly make her way towards the shouting she had been hearing. Stumbling upon what seemed to be a scuffle between 4 people, appearing behind Flos to see the giant andersweltler snatch up the young male she had been speaking to yesterday.
<RemixedMagic> "GACK!!" [And Flos, the foolish boy, was taken.]
* K crew, so we have started in the Entertainment district, but all that chasing and running, we are now in the alley leading between Entertainment district and Market district *
<Ayuuria> *Free noticed the shadow vanish swiftly after the andersweltler and looked calmly at Cait* He'll be fine but we should go after him just in case *he got on his skatecycle and went after him*
<RemixedMagic> "AHHHHHHHHHHHH LEMMEGOLEMMEGOLEMMEGO!!!" [Flos kicked and screamed loud enough to wake the oldest woman in the city.]
<Comical1> really wish I had some wheels too right now *stricken with envy* Caitlin ran back toward the end of the alley where the mammoth-man, spotting his persuers, smiled devilishly and carried Flos around the dark corner into another street knowing the rest would follow... what he hadn't anticipated was yet ANOTHER witness, as he tripped over Elowyss. He growled with frustration, threw Flos over his right shoulder, told Elowyss "you shoulda stayed home!" and then scooped her up on his left shoulder before marching off with both of them and still counting on the rest to keep up.
<LunieLu> Pretty much bouncing straight off the andersweltler when he crashed into her, Ella yelped lightly when she was picked up. "W-Wait! Let me go!" She struggled, hitting his back and kicking as hard as she could, "Let me GO! Right now! Or I swear..I-I'll...!"
<Rufus-Vulpe> Aila: 3rd trip this week, the grumpy mechanic was really beginning to get tiered of having to buy more parts for jobs that she knew she wasn't going to be reimbursed for. Especially since lately, everyone decided that they all wanted something or other fixed, and by word and mouth, old fliers or what ever, they decided to come to her to get there unimportant crap fixed. Not that she didn’t appreciate the money coming in, and the masses of chocolate and other fun gadgets she could buy with it, but it left her with minimal time to spend doing other actives she enjoyed, say, playing football with the kids, or sleeping. Sleeping good too. Now trudging through an alleyway to get back to her workshop, it was hard to miss the yelling coming up ahead in the moderately quiet alleyway. “oh geez, what is it with trouble and ally ways?” the female groaned, ready to turn back and avoid the fuss all together, she really didn’t need it. Or at least, she would have, if some bulging twit and twit two and three (who twit one was carrying) stormed passed, and made her drop all her stuff on the floor. “OI!” the female snapped, leaning down to pick up her stuff only to growl loudly as she spotted her precious chocolatey goodness... on the floor.... in a puddle.... un eatable..... oh boy, this was gunna spell trouble.
<RemixedMagic> [Flos thought he was going to be sick with all this movement until he saw the passenger on the other shoulder. Recognizing her, he decided to make the best of the situation and said,] "O-oh! You're the physician from yesterday! Ha ha ha, hello!" [He tipped his hat.]
<Comical1> "Caitlin reached over to touch Free's arm gently before answering, Another time dear, but now we must hurry". Another shadowy character, like a ninja making no sound and keeping just inside the other's periphrial vision, (Ayuuria's NPC) was the closest in persuit. The General Andersweltler couldn't see him but he could feel him close on his heels. He shrugged his massive shoulders, starting to feel somewhat weary from carrying too many people like barrels of wine. It wouldn't be much further though, he thought as he ducked under a tatty curtain leading into a cellar in the bottoms of Merchant District. Inside, he knew he wouldn't be alone and it didn't matter how many 'witnesses' he picked up along the way, he would have enough manpower to make it a fair fight Caitlin, bringing up the rear of the train chasing this madman could see Free just reaching the curtain that the crazy person had gone under.
<Ayuuria> Yeah... Er, I'll go get the athorities *At that, Free went off the alley and down the street to find the police* (And I'm going to pull out of this rp )
<LunieLu> "H-Hello again.." Ella squeaked out as her ribs were battered every time the male carrying her ran, she growled under her breath before lashing out at the andersweltler again, "Let. Me. Go!" She huffed and look at Flos, "How on Lodan did we get into this situation?!" She glanced up to see Cait and Aila following behind.
<RemixedMagic> Flos: "I-I don't even know." [He shrugged and tightened his hat on his head.]
<Rufus-Vulpe> Aila: swearing under her breath as she shoved the busted engine she brought back into its bag, and left the sopping chocolate where is was in its puddle, an evil shine glittered over the females visible eye as she plotted her chocolate murders demise. Watching as he and his perusers disappeared behind a tattered cloth, Aila reconsidered following. There were.... quite a few people... she didn't like people. Sighing, she followed behind, though at a much more casual pace than the others. The only reason she was following, THE ONLY REASON, was so she could deck the bastard who pushed her over in the first place then go back home as if nothing had happened.
<Comical1> Caitlin had caught up to the dingy curtain, and stood around for a second, hesitating after Free skipped town... was it something I said? she wondered... well their 'date' hadn't really played out very cordially so perhaps she had made a bad impression. Circumstances could do that. She looked around; with Free's departure, so too went his ninja comrade that had been inching around in the shadows. Perhaps they really will find the authorities. The military might be able to put a stop to this... but if they did come, it would spoil all her fun. What remained was Caitlin herself, an angry engineer woman who looked like she was trying ruthlessly to keep to herself, and the two captives on the other side. Cait looked the engineer up and down, evaluating her worth in a fight (I'd bet on her!) and considering how likely she would stick around to assist in a fight (judging by that "keep to myself" posture, not likely). On the other hand, even though the fiddler wasn't much of a bet for a fight she did like the lad, and the girl swept up in this mess next to him didn't deserve to be kidnapped on her account. Caitlin heaved a big sigh... it didn't look good, but she didn't come this far to just give up. She was going in. Raising her chin high she swept the curtain aside and walked into the unknown.
<Comical1> I typed a crap ton again, but Vulpe gave me permission
<LunieLu> "I swear..if you don't let me go right now.." Elowyss warned, sneering under her breath at the captor. "how dare you treat one of your own kind like this." She considered her options whilst shouting at him, she knew she wouldn't have the strength to take him..but if he put her down and turned his back at any given moment, she could stun him..
<RemixedMagic> "Hey, uh, Mister? I think we should, uh, talk this out? You know, actually be friends and reason with another--WHOA!!" [His hat suddenly flew off and he lunged forward to grab it, but to no avail since the kidnapper was too strong. The hat fluttered and landed on the ground with a plop!] "Noooooo!"
<Rufus-Vulpe> Aila: swiftly swinging her bag over her shoulder she made her way quickly through the rag and down the steps into the cellar. The area was a little cramped for her liking, but its not like it mattered, her dexterity wasn't exactly the best anyway. it's like moving around the junk yard you call your workshop Aila mused, dropping the bag carefully at the doorways entrance where the light was peaking through. Needing to catch up to the runners who would soon meet the cellar's no doubt dead end, the mechanic swung her rump onto the stairways banister and slid down, gaining speed. So much speed in fact, that she was practically flung off the end of it at the bottom and strait past the blond female and into the giant oaf holding the two hostages.
Groaning, she pushed herself up, now sitting on the large males back. “huh, lucky banister?” she questioned idly, only to yelp as the oaf beneath her groaned and tried to sit up and push her off. More from reflex than anything, Aila implant her first strait into the males face, a large cracking noise sounding as she knocked him out cold. “YE-OUCH! What the heck is your face made of mate!” she cursed, jumping up and waving her hand back and forth in attempts to wave off the pain. Then, she kicked him in the side for good measure. “and that’s for knocking my chocolate into a puddle jack arse!” the female sneered, now nursing a bruised hand.
<Comical1> Caitlin had her sword out, at the ready, but was standing there dumbfounded and confused. "Did that really just happen??" 0_0 She tiptoed cautiously toward the mammoth-man on the floor, sleeping like a baby after being nicked on the chin by the mechanic. remind me never to fight a mechanic Caitlin mused. She about started to smile when she saw the poor fiddler and the young woman in a heap by a round wooden table that looked like it'd been carved by a blind carpenter. "are you guys alright-" she started to ask but the last word caught in her throat and was cut off by Elowyss's MEEP as she was hauled to her feet by another shady figure behind her back gripping both of her arms with both of his hands. from every dark corner of the cellar another dingy bafoon materialized with either an expression of excitement or one of boiling anger. "the mammoth's got friends" Caitlin whispered as she held her sword ready in front of her.
<LunieLu> A loud yelp sounded from Ella when she was flung from the mammoth's grasp, she then groaned softly in pain when crashing into the young fiddler who had been on the opposite shoulder to her. She looked up at Cait, holding the front of her skirt down with a soft blush; she was about to reply when hauled to her feet, a small meep/gasp sounding from the winged andersweltler. "H-Hey!!" She shot a glare over her shoulder at the guy who had grabbed her
<RemixedMagic> [Although aching and in pain, Flosscrambled from under the physician's weight and tried to help her up.] "Oh my gosh, are you alright?" [He then twisted his head around to catch sight of the other crooks in the room. He could see them all very well, and his eyes glowed orange in the dark.] "Oh, drat."
<Rufus-Vulpe> Aila: the mechanic went still as several more shadows materialised out of the shadows. oh geez, what are these guys? Ninja? she thought with irritation, her feet sliding into a more solid and defensive stance as she brought on fist up in front of her and the other tinkered with something inside her coat, sneakily and away from view. All hell was about to break loose and she knew it. this is why I don’t get involved with people Aila thought as she begrudgingly readied herself for a fight. Fingers dancing against the mechanical contraptions she was hiding, she groaned when she realised she had only brought two with her, not really thinking she would need to use them. That, and a wrench. Hmm... maybe she could throw it at some ones head?
<Comical1> It was nearly dawn, the sun was on the brink of rising and the clouds had the purple-red underbellies of overripe grapes. Caitlin was tiptoeing her way quietly through the streets of the Red Guild. She had added a shaw to her outfit since leaving the card club earlier that night.

He smiled, knowing full well who it was and grabbed Cait's hand* Let him go, the police will catch him soon enough. *'Well... more like my guild will kill him before that' he though*
<Comical1> before they got more than two steps away, all three were distracted by a strange pair of glowing orbs bobbing around the darker end of the alley, the end of the alley the increasing sunlight hadn't touched yet. "Another witness, can't leave more of those hanging around" the villian bellowed as he ran past Cait and Free to snatch up poor Flos who was only trying to stay hidden. "Free, I know him!" Caitlin shouted as he began running toward the sunlight, "We can't leave him, I know him, he's the fiddler!"
<LunieLu> Elowyss was on her way home from a guild meeting when she had heard an awful racket half way down the market street, curious as to what the whole commotion was about, she had decided to quickly make her way towards the shouting she had been hearing. Stumbling upon what seemed to be a scuffle between 4 people, appearing behind Flos to see the giant andersweltler snatch up the young male she had been speaking to yesterday.
<RemixedMagic> "GACK!!" [And Flos, the foolish boy, was taken.]
* K crew, so we have started in the Entertainment district, but all that chasing and running, we are now in the alley leading between Entertainment district and Market district *
<Ayuuria> *Free noticed the shadow vanish swiftly after the andersweltler and looked calmly at Cait* He'll be fine but we should go after him just in case *he got on his skatecycle and went after him*
<RemixedMagic> "AHHHHHHHHHHHH LEMMEGOLEMMEGOLEMMEGO!!!" [Flos kicked and screamed loud enough to wake the oldest woman in the city.]
<Comical1> really wish I had some wheels too right now *stricken with envy* Caitlin ran back toward the end of the alley where the mammoth-man, spotting his persuers, smiled devilishly and carried Flos around the dark corner into another street knowing the rest would follow... what he hadn't anticipated was yet ANOTHER witness, as he tripped over Elowyss. He growled with frustration, threw Flos over his right shoulder, told Elowyss "you shoulda stayed home!" and then scooped her up on his left shoulder before marching off with both of them and still counting on the rest to keep up.
<LunieLu> Pretty much bouncing straight off the andersweltler when he crashed into her, Ella yelped lightly when she was picked up. "W-Wait! Let me go!" She struggled, hitting his back and kicking as hard as she could, "Let me GO! Right now! Or I swear..I-I'll...!"
<Rufus-Vulpe> Aila: 3rd trip this week, the grumpy mechanic was really beginning to get tiered of having to buy more parts for jobs that she knew she wasn't going to be reimbursed for. Especially since lately, everyone decided that they all wanted something or other fixed, and by word and mouth, old fliers or what ever, they decided to come to her to get there unimportant crap fixed. Not that she didn’t appreciate the money coming in, and the masses of chocolate and other fun gadgets she could buy with it, but it left her with minimal time to spend doing other actives she enjoyed, say, playing football with the kids, or sleeping. Sleeping good too. Now trudging through an alleyway to get back to her workshop, it was hard to miss the yelling coming up ahead in the moderately quiet alleyway. “oh geez, what is it with trouble and ally ways?” the female groaned, ready to turn back and avoid the fuss all together, she really didn’t need it. Or at least, she would have, if some bulging twit and twit two and three (who twit one was carrying) stormed passed, and made her drop all her stuff on the floor. “OI!” the female snapped, leaning down to pick up her stuff only to growl loudly as she spotted her precious chocolatey goodness... on the floor.... in a puddle.... un eatable..... oh boy, this was gunna spell trouble.
<RemixedMagic> [Flos thought he was going to be sick with all this movement until he saw the passenger on the other shoulder. Recognizing her, he decided to make the best of the situation and said,] "O-oh! You're the physician from yesterday! Ha ha ha, hello!" [He tipped his hat.]
<Comical1> "Caitlin reached over to touch Free's arm gently before answering, Another time dear, but now we must hurry". Another shadowy character, like a ninja making no sound and keeping just inside the other's periphrial vision, (Ayuuria's NPC) was the closest in persuit. The General Andersweltler couldn't see him but he could feel him close on his heels. He shrugged his massive shoulders, starting to feel somewhat weary from carrying too many people like barrels of wine. It wouldn't be much further though, he thought as he ducked under a tatty curtain leading into a cellar in the bottoms of Merchant District. Inside, he knew he wouldn't be alone and it didn't matter how many 'witnesses' he picked up along the way, he would have enough manpower to make it a fair fight Caitlin, bringing up the rear of the train chasing this madman could see Free just reaching the curtain that the crazy person had gone under.
<Ayuuria> Yeah... Er, I'll go get the athorities *At that, Free went off the alley and down the street to find the police* (And I'm going to pull out of this rp )
<LunieLu> "H-Hello again.." Ella squeaked out as her ribs were battered every time the male carrying her ran, she growled under her breath before lashing out at the andersweltler again, "Let. Me. Go!" She huffed and look at Flos, "How on Lodan did we get into this situation?!" She glanced up to see Cait and Aila following behind.
<RemixedMagic> Flos: "I-I don't even know." [He shrugged and tightened his hat on his head.]
<Rufus-Vulpe> Aila: swearing under her breath as she shoved the busted engine she brought back into its bag, and left the sopping chocolate where is was in its puddle, an evil shine glittered over the females visible eye as she plotted her chocolate murders demise. Watching as he and his perusers disappeared behind a tattered cloth, Aila reconsidered following. There were.... quite a few people... she didn't like people. Sighing, she followed behind, though at a much more casual pace than the others. The only reason she was following, THE ONLY REASON, was so she could deck the bastard who pushed her over in the first place then go back home as if nothing had happened.
<Comical1> Caitlin had caught up to the dingy curtain, and stood around for a second, hesitating after Free skipped town... was it something I said? she wondered... well their 'date' hadn't really played out very cordially so perhaps she had made a bad impression. Circumstances could do that. She looked around; with Free's departure, so too went his ninja comrade that had been inching around in the shadows. Perhaps they really will find the authorities. The military might be able to put a stop to this... but if they did come, it would spoil all her fun. What remained was Caitlin herself, an angry engineer woman who looked like she was trying ruthlessly to keep to herself, and the two captives on the other side. Cait looked the engineer up and down, evaluating her worth in a fight (I'd bet on her!) and considering how likely she would stick around to assist in a fight (judging by that "keep to myself" posture, not likely). On the other hand, even though the fiddler wasn't much of a bet for a fight she did like the lad, and the girl swept up in this mess next to him didn't deserve to be kidnapped on her account. Caitlin heaved a big sigh... it didn't look good, but she didn't come this far to just give up. She was going in. Raising her chin high she swept the curtain aside and walked into the unknown.
<Comical1> I typed a crap ton again, but Vulpe gave me permission
<LunieLu> "I swear..if you don't let me go right now.." Elowyss warned, sneering under her breath at the captor. "how dare you treat one of your own kind like this." She considered her options whilst shouting at him, she knew she wouldn't have the strength to take him..but if he put her down and turned his back at any given moment, she could stun him..
<RemixedMagic> "Hey, uh, Mister? I think we should, uh, talk this out? You know, actually be friends and reason with another--WHOA!!" [His hat suddenly flew off and he lunged forward to grab it, but to no avail since the kidnapper was too strong. The hat fluttered and landed on the ground with a plop!] "Noooooo!"
<Rufus-Vulpe> Aila: swiftly swinging her bag over her shoulder she made her way quickly through the rag and down the steps into the cellar. The area was a little cramped for her liking, but its not like it mattered, her dexterity wasn't exactly the best anyway. it's like moving around the junk yard you call your workshop Aila mused, dropping the bag carefully at the doorways entrance where the light was peaking through. Needing to catch up to the runners who would soon meet the cellar's no doubt dead end, the mechanic swung her rump onto the stairways banister and slid down, gaining speed. So much speed in fact, that she was practically flung off the end of it at the bottom and strait past the blond female and into the giant oaf holding the two hostages.
Groaning, she pushed herself up, now sitting on the large males back. “huh, lucky banister?” she questioned idly, only to yelp as the oaf beneath her groaned and tried to sit up and push her off. More from reflex than anything, Aila implant her first strait into the males face, a large cracking noise sounding as she knocked him out cold. “YE-OUCH! What the heck is your face made of mate!” she cursed, jumping up and waving her hand back and forth in attempts to wave off the pain. Then, she kicked him in the side for good measure. “and that’s for knocking my chocolate into a puddle jack arse!” the female sneered, now nursing a bruised hand.
<Comical1> Caitlin had her sword out, at the ready, but was standing there dumbfounded and confused. "Did that really just happen??" 0_0 She tiptoed cautiously toward the mammoth-man on the floor, sleeping like a baby after being nicked on the chin by the mechanic. remind me never to fight a mechanic Caitlin mused. She about started to smile when she saw the poor fiddler and the young woman in a heap by a round wooden table that looked like it'd been carved by a blind carpenter. "are you guys alright-" she started to ask but the last word caught in her throat and was cut off by Elowyss's MEEP as she was hauled to her feet by another shady figure behind her back gripping both of her arms with both of his hands. from every dark corner of the cellar another dingy bafoon materialized with either an expression of excitement or one of boiling anger. "the mammoth's got friends" Caitlin whispered as she held her sword ready in front of her.
<LunieLu> A loud yelp sounded from Ella when she was flung from the mammoth's grasp, she then groaned softly in pain when crashing into the young fiddler who had been on the opposite shoulder to her. She looked up at Cait, holding the front of her skirt down with a soft blush; she was about to reply when hauled to her feet, a small meep/gasp sounding from the winged andersweltler. "H-Hey!!" She shot a glare over her shoulder at the guy who had grabbed her
<RemixedMagic> [Although aching and in pain, Flosscrambled from under the physician's weight and tried to help her up.] "Oh my gosh, are you alright?" [He then twisted his head around to catch sight of the other crooks in the room. He could see them all very well, and his eyes glowed orange in the dark.] "Oh, drat."
<Rufus-Vulpe> Aila: the mechanic went still as several more shadows materialised out of the shadows. oh geez, what are these guys? Ninja? she thought with irritation, her feet sliding into a more solid and defensive stance as she brought on fist up in front of her and the other tinkered with something inside her coat, sneakily and away from view. All hell was about to break loose and she knew it. this is why I don’t get involved with people Aila thought as she begrudgingly readied herself for a fight. Fingers dancing against the mechanical contraptions she was hiding, she groaned when she realised she had only brought two with her, not really thinking she would need to use them. That, and a wrench. Hmm... maybe she could throw it at some ones head?
