Gabriel reached up and gingerly touched his swollen lip. Bastard, he thought glaring at Erik. As you can imagine reader, as soon as Erik had caught up to Gabriel he had given him a good going over.
Erik caught Gabriel glaring at him out of the corner of his eye, so he smirked at him. This only caused the paled eyed man's glare to intensify. "So slick ya got me out here, now what is the plan", Gabriel drawled as he began to fan himself with his hat.
"Well first we need to go to the stable and ask a work hand where Oliver and Chloe went", Erik said with an evil grin. Gabriel snorted noisily knowing that Erik's definition of ask was a lot different from most people's definition of ask.
"Okay, lead the way buddy", Gabriel said, putting his hat back on. Erik then proceeded to ninja up the nearest wall grabbing onto the nearest ledge and hoisted himself up. The light sounds of Erik's shoes running along the ledge echoed softly down the wall until they faded into nothingness.
Gabriel shiftily eyed the wall and the ledge that Erik had disappeared over. He then took a deep breath before taking a few steps back and ran full speed to the wall. You can do it, you can do it, he mentally chanted as he lunged at the wall, legs flailing.
SPLAT!
Gabriel stuck to the wall like a bug on a windshield. He stayed suspended there for a few seconds before he slid down the wall with a moan.
Gabriel blinked a few times, trying to clear the stars from his vision. He slowly stood up glaring at the wall accusingly. "Screw it, I'am gonna walk to the stables", Gabriel mumbled as he began to stagger to his destination.

I turned away from the horse I had just been brushing and set the brush on top of the stall. The horse: Phantom began to whinny frantically.
"Shhhhh, boy your okay", I murmured, patting the horse soothingly. The horse slowly calmed down as I whispered to it softly.
"Just you wait; I almost have enough money to buy that horse farm I have been telling ya about. And when I get it you will be coming with me", I whispered excitedly.
Phantom had at this point calmed down completely. "Looks like I missed a spot", I exclaimed as I spotted a dull spot on the horses back.
"Now let's see if I can fix that", I lulled in a sing song voice. I reached over to grasp the brush I had just set down, but my hand just hit the top of the stall. What the duck, I thought as I looked at the spot the brush should have been.
Damn it Jimmy, I thought as I faced palmed. "Jimmy quite taking my tools", I called as I glared around the stables, expecting the bucked tooth idiot to pop out at any moment.
Nothing, the stables were completely silent, save for the gently breathing of Phantom. "Jimmy", I called again as I stepped out of the stall.
I took three steps and then a large crash made me jump out of my boots. I slapped my hands over my mouth in an attempt to keep a girlish squeal from escaping me.
Success, I thought in glee since I managed to keep quiet. I would have given myself a high five if it weren't for the object that flew past me. It hit the wall next to me before clattering to my feet, making scream like the sissy I was.
I immediately stopped screaming as soon as I recognized the object as my missing brush. I scowled menacingly at the thing. "You win this round brush", I exclaimed pointing my finger angrily at it.
I continued to glare at the brush before sighing in defeat. Note to self: don't get in glaring contests with things that don't have eyes, I thought as I stooped to pick up the brush.

Erik
I could barely subdue the chuckle that wanted to escape me as I watched the little black haired fellow glare at the brush I had just thrown at him.
He then sighed in what seemed like defeat before he bent over the retrieve the item. Now is my chance to really scare him, I thought as I stepped from the shadows and snuck up behind him.
I gently tapped him on the shoulder, making him stiffen and drop the brush. He then gingerly looked around his shoulder, his brown eyes widening comically as he spotted me.
"Don't move, I have a few questions", I growled. I flinched in shock as the man fell to the frown in a dead faint.
"Damn it, not again", I said frustrated.
"I thought ya didn't like usin foul language", I heard Gabriel mock from somewhere behind me. I looked over my shoulder to see Gabriel standing at the entrance of the stable.
I just glared at him, that was until he started limping towards me. "What happened to you?" I asked mildly concerned.
I noticed a light scowl cross his face before he shrugged his shoulders. "So lemme guess ya were just askin him where they went an he fell asleep", he stated mockingly.
"It does not matter what happened. All I know is now he is useless", I stated as I rubbed my face in frustration.
"Well, maybe we can find out where they went if we go look around Oliver's office", Gabriel suggested as he began to walk out of the stable. I sighed following him out.
"Okay follow me" I said as I scramble to the top of the stable. I paused on the stable roof waiting for Gabriel.
"You can do it", I heard Gabriel say. A loud crash resounded throughout the air, I then heard Gabriel curse loudly before he staggered away.
I chuckled lightly before I began to make my way to Oliver's office.

Erik and Gabriel raced through the hidden corridors. Finally they reached the hidden door to Oliver's office. They threw open the door.
Chloe and Oliver were sitting on a blanket on the floor. A picnic basket setting next to them. Oliver immediately stood up, putting himself between them and Chloe.
"Phantom what are you doing here", Oliver exclaimed with a glare. "Yeah Erik what are you doing here?" Chloe asked curiously as she stood up and walked past a flabbergasted Oliver.
Gabriel cleared his throat. "I'am here too ya know", Gabriel said stepping around Erik and giving Chloe a flirty grin. Erik had to restrain himself from strangling the living daylights out of his so called friend.
"Oh umm well- why are you both here then?" Chloe asked becoming more confused.
"Oh um well ya see-", Gabriel stuttered as he rubbed the back of his neck. "We were just planning on- uh", Erik continued before looking at Gabriel for help.
"Ummm", Gabriel murmured scratching his head. "Tee-peeing his office", Gabriel finally exclaimed pointing at Oliver, who in return tilted his head in confusion.
"Yeah! Wait- What?!" Erik exclaimed, giving Gabriel an incredulous look. "Yep gotta go", Gabriel hollered before slamming the secret door shut.
"What just happened?" Oliver asked tonelessly. Chloe simply shrugged before sitting down on the blanket.
Oliver looked quizzically at the hidden door; before he snapped his fingers like he had just solved a problem. He then walked over to his desk and paused looking at the pile of papers that resided on it. He then shrugged before pushing the paper mountain off on to the floor.
"Ah- Ha", he exclaimed as he picked up a role of duck-tape that had been smothering beneath the papers. He then proceeded to unmercifully bind the secret door shut.
Oliver sighed in satisfaction as he took a step back to admire his work. Chloe face palmed.
