Posted by: Kronos Oct 19 2005, 08:38 PM
Andre was in Dras Leona on less than honorable buisness. He was working the poker table because the black jack and roulette tables were full; the ace of spades seemed to love him. He was an expert on slight of hand and his winnings proved it. He was about to walk over to the roulette table following a man's departure when someone walked in the door, someone who could recognize him and say he was not "William Smith", someone who was about to corrupt his winnings, it was Sirian.

Sirian walked through the doorway, eyeing the poker tables suspiciously. He was looking for a man that had a nice bounty on his head, but has had no luck what-so-ever in finding him.

Amber sat low in the high rafters of the dirty casino. Normally she worked for no one, but at the moment this was differnet. She was on a mission to kill. Someone had to do it and the guy that had hired her had a good enough reason, it seemed. Amber had deiceded long ago she'd watch the man and decide if the kill was worth it. She watched the casino iditots gamlbing their money and lives away. She settled into a comftorable postioin and waited.

Sirian walked over to the bar and sat down to have a drink when he noticed a woman sitting on one of the stools. He decided to walk over an introduce himself. He approached her and said, "Hello my name is Sirian, may I by you a drink?"

Amber crept down from the rafters unnoticed until she reached the floor. She had spotted her victim and I looked as he had spotted her. Now it was time to decide if the kill was worth it. She sat down on an empty bar stool to see what excitment the evening would bring. She sat still taking in the conversations until a young guy about her age sat down next to her. She studied him. He had sholder lenght silver hair and a exteramly nice sword but what caught her by suprise was his unsual silver eyes. She decided he'd be a awsome challenge to fight.
"Yes, you may buy me a drink," Amber said in a soft voice. Any other time she would a defiently refused, but this stranger was for some reason differnet. She decided no matter what she would not let her feelings get the best of her, the never had and they never would. He was her victiam, nothing more.

Sirian called the bartender over and bought two drinks. He handed her one and took a sip of his. "So what brings you to a dusty casino like this?" He asked.

"I guess you could say I'm on business, if that is what you would call it," she simply replied.
Posted by: Caiden Nov 8 2005, 03:16 AM
"Pretty interesting type of business; being in a dirty casino like this," Sirian chuckled. Realizing that this interesting lady was not going to give him any answers to why she was here so he decided he would take his leave. "Nice talking to you miss, but I to have also got business to attend to," he said. He stood up and took one last look around the casino. "Farewell," he said and with that, he walked out the door.

Andre let out a sigh of relief as Sirian got up to leave, but he just couldn't leave it at that. He had been talking to a girl that seemed to appear out of nowhere and that peaked his curiosity. "I'm gone," said Andre as he went to collect his winnings accompanied by the sighs of poor suckers who had hoped to win back their lost chips. He went out the side door and walked around to the front, so that he could try one of his best pastimes and spy on poor Sirian.

Amber smiled to herself as the guy left just as soon as he came. She never did like people that suck around for a long time. She finished her drink quickly and left to follow the stranger with silver eyes.

Sirian walked at a brisk pace, he had waisted too much time talking. He heard foot steps behind him and new he was being followed by someone in the casino. He had a hunch, but wasn't sure. He went into an alley way and was about to call his dragon Relik when he saw a shadow.
Andre new by the flash in Caiden's eye he had been spotted. He did what he knew best and began to think up a cover story. "Hey Caiden," said Andre casually, "imagine meeting you here. I thought I was the only one who hung around in backalleys.
Posted by: Caiden Nov 14 2005, 03:19 AM
"Stop making a fool of yourself," said Sirian who was getting angry, "I know you were following me; you haven't changed one bit," he said shaking his head.
Posted by: Kronos Nov 15 2005, 10:21 PM
"What, me follow you? I'm shocked that you'd say that," retorted Andre hiding a smile, "but still, why are you in a back alley.
Posted by: Caiden Nov 15 2005, 11:57 PM
He lowered his tone and said, "Calling Relik. I got a lead on a person who had a nice bounty on them, but it was a fake. Now stop trying to fake not following me, I know you were. I haven't seen you in two months, but I still know your old ways," he said with a grin.
Posted by: Kronos Nov 16 2005, 09:36 PM
"I'm still offended by that," Andre said in a mocking tone, "but it has been awhile since we last worked together. Shall we hunt down a new bounty to replace your wild goose chase? I'll split the profits with you 75-25. What do ya say?"
Posted by: Caiden Nov 16 2005, 11:18 PM
"Fair enough, but I get the 75," he said with a grin.
Posted by: Kronos Nov 16 2005, 11:22 PM
"Ha ha," Andre laughed dryily, "50-50 it is then."
Posted by: Caiden Nov 16 2005, 11:34 PM
"That will work. Do you have Jupiter with you?" He asked.

Amber crouched in the alleyway behind some trash cans and listened to the two old friends talking.
Posted by: Kronos Nov 22 2005, 09:37 PM
"Oh yeah," Andre said casually, "but it'll take a minute to get here. can you wait a sec?" Instead of witng for a reply, he started to leave the alley, "Be back in a minute!" he yelled.
Posted by: Caiden Nov 23 2005, 12:13 AM
"Alright, I'll meet you on the outskirts of the city," said Sirian. He heard a noise by a couple of trash cans and said, "whoever you are, you can come out."
Posted by: venus Nov 25 2005, 02:14 PM
Amber cursed loudly for stepped on and old bottle, apperetnly the rackt had given her away. She drew her sword and stepped out.
Posted by: Caiden Nov 25 2005, 03:17 PM
"Now why would you be following me?" Asked Sirian with a smile. Then he saw that she had her sword drawn and his look quickly turned serious.
Posted by: venus Nov 26 2005, 10:00 PM
Amber laughed queitly. You really don't want to know, she thought to herslef. "Well" she said, "I thought of you as kinda interesting I guess you could say. Your defentlay an elf and I'm still not sure about your friend there. He's on the strange side."
Posted by: Caiden Nov 26 2005, 11:35 PM
Sirian laughed and said, "Yes he is a bit strange, but he is extremely smart and a good fighter." This girl seemed different than most; she seems to not trust many. "So, are you skilled with that blade?" He asked.
Posted by: venus Nov 27 2005, 02:20 AM
Amber thought for a minute before she answered. She had heard many stories of any mortal fighting with an elf would not even stand a chance of even living much less winning the fight. She had never fough with an elf before. "Yes most would say I am quite skilled, but compared to an elf..."
Posted by: Caiden Nov 27 2005, 02:59 AM
Sirian laughed for a moment and then asked, "Would you like to have a friendly match to pass the time until Andre gets back?"
Posted by: venus Nov 28 2005, 11:31 PM
"Well...lets see...what if you tell me what's going on first and who is this Andre and where did he go? And what were you to doing in this dirty alley way and in that casino.?" Amber did not trust this guy. And since he was an elf and really could easly kill her then why would'nt he? Telling her he would challenge her to and "friendly" fight and then he could kill her. She decided to stall the fight until she could fiugre out what to do, although she was itching to fight, she was suppose to kill him, not the other way 'round. "Then we can have a "friendly" match."she replied.
Posted by: Caiden Nov 29 2005, 10:54 PM
Sirian thought for a moment before he answered, he doesn't just usually give out random information to strangers. He could scry her, but it would be rude to do so. He studied her and decided that it would be okay to tell her what is going on. "Alright," he said," I guess I can tell you, but you can't go and tell others. Andre is going to get his steed Jupiter so we can go on a bounty hunt. In the casino, I was looking for a man with a bounty on him, but it ended up in a dead end. And the reason I was in the alley way," he sighed," is because I was calling my dragon. If you are willing to, you may accompany us on our bounty. It's strictly up to you."

Amber pondered on this a moment. If she went along she would have to decide if she wanted to kill her victim...if she did'nt go she could merrily forget it all happend...althougth it would nag at the back of her mind for all eterinty. And she was not nearly ready to give up on her job. She let out a long whisle and her big grey and black mare, Deliaih came at a full gallop. "When do we head out?" she asked.
Posted by: Caiden Nov 30 2005, 12:28 AM
"As soon as possible, we're suppose to meet Andre on the outskirts of the city," he said, "I'll just run, you can ride your horse; Are you ready?"
Posted by: venus Nov 30 2005, 11:21 PM
"Its no problem if you want to doubule on the back of Deliaih, if you can hang on." she told him.
Posted by: Caiden Dec 1 2005, 12:38 AM
"Alright, that will do," he said getting up onto her mare, "I'm ready when you are."
Posted by: venus Dec 1 2005, 09:38 PM
Amber squeezed Deliaih into a soft trot as they passed though the city. Dust was just comming and it set a soft glow of orange light thoughout the city.
Posted by: Caiden Dec 3 2005, 12:30 AM
Once they were out of the city, Sirian slid off of Amber's mare; he studied the vast contents of the sky for any signs of Andre. After a couple of minutes of looking, he decided to go and sit against a nearby tree and wait. He drew his sword and ran his finger down his blade for any scratches or marks.
Posted by: venus Dec 5 2005, 02:14 AM
Amber watched Sirian sit aginist the tree. "How long you figure were gonna be waiting here?" she asked him.
Posted by: Caiden Dec 8 2005, 03:47 AM
He shrugged, "Maybe 10-15 minutes tops," he said. "You might as well make yourself comfortable for the time being," he said. He smiled at her and then carried on with his blade.
Posted by: venus Dec 9 2005, 01:51 AM
Amber smiled back. This ought to be interesting, she thought to herslef. She slipped Deliaih's reins over a low hanging limb and sat down under a tree near where Sirian was fingering with his blade. She let her body untense for a minute and took in the world around her.
Posted by: Caiden Dec 14 2005, 09:08 PM
Sirian paused for a moment and glanced over at Amber. "What exactly were you doing in that casino?" He asked. His tone was more serious than before, but still friendly at the same time.
Posted by: venus Dec 15 2005, 02:51 AM
"Business..." she replied in the same tone Sirian has asked the question in.
Posted by: Caiden Dec 29 2005, 06:31 PM
He knew she wouldn't give him anymore details than that, so it would be unnecassary to ask anymore than that of which he has already asked. He knew whatever it was, she didn't want him to know what it was and he was fine with that. It was starting to get dark now, this is odd he thought, why is Andre late. He stood up and said, "Lets go back into the city, I think Andre might've gotten held up, but don't worry, he can handle himself. He won't fly at night so we'll have to wait until the morning," he said scanning the sky one last time.
Posted by: venus Dec 31 2005, 03:39 AM
"Sounds good", Amber repiled as she stood up and untied Deliaih's reins and mouted up. She reached down to give Sirian a hand up on the back of her mare.
