Riven laid back and sighed in relief as Irelia left her room.

That went better than expected. I'm glad she doesn't know the truth about Syndra trying to sabotage that guy hitting on her.

"Syndra, what are you doing?"

Syndra jumped, but let out a sigh when she realized that is was Riven. After that she merely pointed around the corner of the building.

Riven moved up next to Syndra and looked around the corner. After a moment of looking she saw Irelia sitting down drinking tea.

"What am I looking at? Irelia drinking tea is hardly out of the ordinary." Riven asked. A moment later someone walked up to Irelia. "Who's that?"

"I don't know, they've been talking for a little while now. That guy went away for a little bit, but then he came back"

"Hmm….wait. Do you think he is trying to flirt with her?" Riven asked.

"Pfft. Good luck with that. I doubt she would even notice if he was." Syndra scoffed.

"I don't know. Maybe she was really sheltered as a child and doesn't realize that not everyone is straight."

"I'm not saying that I don't believe you, but I am mentally denying everything you just said."

Riven could see Syndra tense up a bit when Irelia laughed at something that the mysterious man said.

After a few moments of watching them talk Syndra grunted. "Well, maybe I should just mess with him then, even out the odds a little bit." Syndra then reached out her hand towards the two.

Riven reached her hand out and lowered Syndra's hand.

"Don't." Riven said.

Syndra looked at her with a perturbed expression on her face.

"If Irelia actually is straight, then nothing you do will make a difference in the end. And if Irelia did find out that you were messing with her love life, then your chances of getting with Irelia are low."

"Fine." Syndra said curtly. Then she went back to watching nervously.

After that the mysterious man made a motion towards the residential area down the street.

Oh snap, is he asking her back to his house? I wonder if Syndra…

Riven's thoughts were interrupted when she heard a crack on the side of the building. When she looked the side of the building was mangled from Syndra's magic.

Yeah, she caught that.

Irelia merely shook her head and motioned towards the inn that they were staying at.

Riven sighed, at least she is as oblivious as ever.

"I'm going to go over there and see if I can't help Irelia out."

"Good."

With that Riven walked over to where Irelia was with the supplies that was sent out to get. When she got next to her she put her hand on her shoulder as she laid the supplies in Irelia's lap.

"Oh, hey Riven!" Irelia exclaimed. "I was getting worried, you and Syndra had been gone for a while."

"Sorry about that, I got distracted helping Syndra. She should be back shortly. So who is your friend here?"

"Oh right I forgot!" Irelia then turned her attention to the mysterious man.

In that time when Irelia wasn't looking Riven mouthed 'Back off' to the man.

"How rude of me! His name is Timeo. He works down the street. He was kind enough to offer us a place to stay the night, but I was just telling him we already had a room here for the night."

Some how I don't think that offer applied to all of us. A shudder went down Riven's spine at the follow up thoughts that unfortunately invaded her mind. The man seemed nervous now, and was probably looking for an excuse to leave without seeming rude. Riven wanted to make sure that her message was clear, so she wanted to do one more thing, but she wasn't sure what to do.

Crap...what did Kat used to do to scare guys away? A few moments later the answer came to Riven.

She took a seat down next to Irelia, picked up her sword, and in the most intimidating and obvious way possible she started to sharpen her sword with a whetstone. Riven's motions were long and exaggerated, in reality she was worried that she might hurt her sword but hopefully she wouldn't have to do it for long.

"I know that you insist that we stay at your place, I'm sure it is very lovely. But we are already settled in here, so I'm afraid that I must decline your offer."

Her plan ended up working and shortly after the man excused himself and quickly scurried away.

Riven sighed to herself in relief when we went in the opposite direction of Syndra.
