New Orleans, 4:26PM

"Rem, someone's followin' us ami." A brown haired boy half whispered.

"I know, c'mon." Remy replied looking straight ahead.

"I t'ink we should try an loose 'em, don' y'?"

"Oui, but dey know dis area as well as we do."

"S' wat? We can still loose dem."

Remy sighed, "Theo, I don' t'ink we…"

"T'ieves!" Someone shouted from behind.

"Don' look back." Remy said harshly, but quietly, stopping his friend from turning. "Jus' keep goin'."

"Hey! Le Beau." A second voice yelled.

"Rem" Theo said nervously.

"Dere not stupid enough to attack us 'ere, der's too many people about." Remy said calmly, though on the inside he was thinking frantically on how to get them both out of this situation.

"Rem I don' like dis, maybe we should call someone?"

Casually Remy looked across the street into the large shop windows, enabling him to see the gang following not far behind, "non, der watchin' us t' close… wait, we'll have t' make a run f'r it. Der's t' many. Call Henri, or y' Pere when we're further away."

"How many?" Theo said suddenly.

"douze."

"What!" he exclaimed quietly, "What da hell is 'e up t'?"

Remy shock his head slightly, "der's an ally down 'ere wit a six foot wall, remember?"

"Oui, we can jump dat easy."

"S' can dey, but it's our only choice, soon as we get to it run. D'accord?"

Theo never got a chance to respond when gun shots where fired, causing a chorus of screams, which Julian's shout rode on, "dats y firs' an' las' warnin' T'eives!"

"Run." Remy said quickly shoving Theo in front. More gunshots were heard as the two sprinted further down the road, silently slipping into a side ally. A bullet clipped the corner of the building, causing chips to fly off; one shard cut into the side of Remy's cheek.

As the wall came into view the two thieves got ready to jump over, Theo ran in front, extracting an expandable bo staff he cleared the wall with an inch to spare. Remy followed, expanding his own staff and copied Theo's moves. Landing gracefully Remy nodded to Theo, who was ringing a guild member, before the two took of down the rest of the ally.

The gang chasing them were not far behind, shooting at the two manically.

"Remy no ones answering!"

The end of the ally way came into sight, "c'mon."

Suddenly two figures blocked the exit, the shorter of the two spoke first, "well, well, well wat d' we 'ave 'ere. Two petit t'eives out all alone." The man smirked.

"Stop messin' about, c'mon let us go." Remy said calmly.

"Why would I do dat hmm? When I can do dis." Julian pulled out a gun and tested its weight in both hands before pointing it at Remy.

"Cos de guilds will hunt y' down an' kill y', if y' shoot us."

"How will dey know 's me?" Julian sneered.

Raising an eyebrow Remy looked to Theo, "'Cos y' be stirrin' up trouble for months now, dere not stupid, 'specially since dey already know wha' y' doin'." Remy bluffed. Moving his had closer to his cards in his jean pocket.

"Y' lyin', dey don' know."

"Really? Y' soun' sure of y'self" Remy said pulling his cards out.

Julian looked about quickly at his gang, "well we 'ave y' outnumbered anyway Le Beau."

Remy smirked; his empathy picked up on their nervousness, "not f'r long. Look."

Julian turned and in that second Remy kicked the back of his legs, and threw a charged card into the group behind him.

"Rem c'mon!" Theo grabbed Remy's arm dragging him down the ally past the momentarily stunned attackers. Stumbling Remy followed, shaken by the force of the explosion he'd created.

"Theo! Wait! I …."

"not now Rem! C'mon! lets jus' Aghh!"
