The door opened and before the Crystal Maiden could finish her "Trick or Treat", the Mogul Khan was already yelling at them.
"You come to bother me with this bullshit? Me? The mighty Axe?"
Completely undisturbed, Rylai smiled at him. The Templar Assassin was getting ready for a fight, though she tried not to attract the Khan's attention as she moved into her battle stance and called her Psy powers.
"Yeah, it looks like we do. You have some treats for us?"
"The Axe doesn't have treats!" He was still yelling, baring his teeth and puffing his chest out. "Get away from here before I show you my axe." The bang as he slammed the door was so loud, it rang in Lanaya's ears.
Rylai blew a breath out. "Well, at least it went as expected. Arrogant asshole." She shuddered a little. "I hate him."
The Templar Assassin nodded. "And you are afraid of him."
The Maiden looked at the Assassin from the side. "And you are not?"
She thought about it for a moment. Maybe… a little, if he was faster than her, if he was able to catch her unprepared. Otherwise no. In this situation they had just been in, no. She'd have won every fight. While protecting Rylai. Easily.
She didn't have to voice her thoughts, Rylai having been able to pick up on most of them, at least good enough to understand the general direction they went in. She linked her arm with Lanaya's. "I'm so glad you came with me today. I feel safe, no matter where we go and whom we visit. Thank you."
Beautiful, the Assassin thought as she looked at the blonde woman on her arm. She was the most beautiful female she had ever seen. She couldn't help herself, she had to lean down and kiss her. "I'd go everywhere with you, do everything for you."
The smile she got in answer was so bright, she couldn't resist to kiss Rylai again.
