Agrabah 2932 By:Kalynn Osburn(writer) Laura Huser((Creator of Nefret))

"How fa' do ya' think she'll get?" Anna asked as she leaned on the window pain with her metal arm.Nefret's purple hair was already dissapearing into the crowded streets as she covered up her head with the hood of her brown parka. A heavy rain was starting to fall and the view from the window was obstructed by the drops.

Roi shrugged and adjuested her sword. "Taking a look at those fellows starting to congrigate at the street crner, I'd say about five minuets." Roi crushed the denari note in her hand and thrust it into Anna's hand. "Put this in the jar. I'll be back to collect it later. You gotta give shorty credit, tryin to buy me off with a measly hundred denari." Roi chuckled. "I just hope she lives long enough to get it back."

Nefret walked down the streets, trying to avoid the cars driving at top speed through the puddles. It was of new use however and she screamed as cold water splashed her body and the sound of laughter came from inside the car. "You peices of...!"Nefret cut off her sentence and was contented to growl in a feral manner as she ducked under an overhang to ring out her abused parka. Anubis sniffed at her heel and licked at her casually. Nefret smiled down at her dog. "It's okay baby."She hugged him and petted down the wet fur.

"Hey baby! Why don't you try petting somthing that pets back!" Nefret grimaced at the cat call and turned around to see a kid who looked to be in his early twenties looking at her from a street-corner. He gestured rudly with himself and grinned. "Whatda ya say sweet thang we can go back to my place and get all warmed up." he got closer and Anubis growled.

Nefret sneered at her husteler. "No thanks buddy. You can't handle what I got." she walked out into the rain and went several streets over before she heard a trash can topple over. She turned around, half frightened and saw the same guy standing in the ally-way, only now there was another two with him, and hey looked far more menacing. Nefret went for her knife and Anubis lowered his ears back.

"Oh the little priestess pulled a knife on us!" Said one of the bigger men coming towards her. "What ever are we gonna do?"

Nefret backed up a little. "How'd you know I was a priestess?"

The same man who'd confronted her earlier grabbed her shoulders, even though he'd been in front of her eyes a moment ago. "Lets jus say your names gettin kinda populer round' my people." He grinned and his jaw pulled back to show off viciouse teeth and a muzzle like a crocodile. He shoved her into the allyway and the bigger man, who was now growing corse black scales over his hands, grabbed her and wrenched her arms back.

The third one, a skinny man with brownish scales grabbed the snarling dog and wresteled it to the ground. "I got the mutt! What am I supposed to do with it?"

"How da Hell should I know? Set just said to get the priestess with the purple hair alive.Kill the mutt for all I care." The mangey reptile- like apperition said in a raspy voice.

The other man-thing cackled and raised his hand high, bringing it down on Anubis's head. "No! You basterd! Leave my dog alone!" Nefret screamed and jerked in the two mens arms. The one holding her took her arm and twisted it back, straining the musces as Nefret yelped."Let me go! Get your hands offa me!" Nefret twisted one of her arms lose and grabbed the knife from her side, slicing it upward into the larger man's eye.

The man screamed and clasped his ruined eye, flailing back and yelling for help from his comrads.The first one who'd assulted her grabbed Nefret by the hair and punched her across the side of her face, the hard contact bringing her to the concrete. "Pray to your Goddess you little whore!" He raised his fist again to deliver another blow.

Nefret closed her eyes and braced herself for the hit.The shadow of his fist raised high above her head and she heard the air cut as it was brought down.
