"Ack!! I'm sorry Dark! Damn! Don't try to kill me-e!"
I dodged another slash at my head from a good friend of mine, who was currently after my head. He and I had stopped in Bastok, I had a few things I needed to pick up at the local auction house and he needed to get a bit of gear. I had settled myself in his room while he was switching armors. I noticed he had added a few things to the room since I had last visited him.
He had added a few little items here and there, but he had added a cute little Wind Egg to the top of his Blue 9-Drawer Almirah. I knew what was inside the thing so I didn't bother opening it; I wasn't a Dragoon so his pole-arm collection didn't interest me. I was rather curious about the little egg on top of it though. I didn't think he would have something like that in his room. I touched it and admired the craftsmanship put into the little egg, running my fingers over little wing like protrusions on the top.
"You're not normally this quiet. What are you messing with Kiayashi?"
I about hit the roof. I was being rather quiet while I was looking at the little egg, but that silence ended when I had jumped. My foot had been under the edge of the Almirah, and jumping made my foot hit the bottom of it. Since I had discarded my Beetle Leggings at the door, that hurt, and it also jarred the entire thing. I saw the egg wobble in it's place and then fall to it's side. It rolled. I had jumped back and just out of reach of the small item as it rolled off and hit the floor.
Silence.
Water being shut off.
Foot steps.
Silence.
"KIAYASHI!!!"
I heard faintly the sound of his Thalassocrat being pulled from it's place beside his bed. Then I heard the door slam.
I was already out of there and running toward only Altana knew where. I glanced back only once, and saw a very furious Darkwind running after me in only the bottom portion of his best armor, his lance raised. I never looked back because I almost lost my tail to his lance.
This is where I am now.
Running.
Running from a crazed half-dressed Elvann with a huge ass lance.
I kept running.
Then I saw my savior in white garments.
Thank you Altana, Patharogix was in Bastok on Iceday.
