"Yes, well, I am afraid I must ask you to take it down. While we do not generally want to interrupt your business, despite the moral and legal implications, this Order has committed crimes on Earth. As such, aiding them in any way is illegal.", He paused for a moment, accepting a stack of posters from one of the bodyguards before turning back to the man and placing them on the counter. The stack of bounties was for all charged with aiding Sophia, and of course Sophia herself. "These posters, one for a "Sophia Aethis" and others issued for those accused of aiding her, must be removed. Make no mistake, we will investigate the claims and put the accused on trial. However! On Earth, the accused must be allowed a fair and just trial. We have strong reasons to believe that not only will this Order of Sanctity execute the accused, but it is reported that they are planning to kill her on sight. We cannot allow that."
"That is precisely what I was referring to. That there will be some here who are now considdered criminals is without doubt, the text on the posters that were discarded indicates so much. The question is; Just who amonst us is wanted. This, I intent to find out." Caius responded.
Yeul blew a small sigh as she walked alongside Caius, wiping a few sweat droplets from her forehead.

Sam reached the city limits some ways infront the group heading for it, having used boulders and trees as cover. After looking for a vantage point, Sam approached a building, and jumped onto its rooftop. There, he turned towards the group, and laid down on his stomach, and seemed in on the approaching group.

Elm returned at the ships' docking site not long after dropping Sam off. Unable to see with its cloaking field active, it didn't see that Shara had found the tracking beacon, leaving it with a suspicion.
Hovering a fair distance away and above the group, it kept watch for movement.

Caius gave no further response to EMily, not seeing anything left to talk about. When Winona spoke, Caius glanced to her briefly, then returned to looking straight ahead. "We have." He answered curtly.
After a few more minutes of walking, he, Yeul and Emily made it to the city limites. Stopping, Caius looked around.
"Shall we ask a local if what we are looking for is in the area?" Yeul questioned after catching up with Caius, having fallen behind by a few paces.
"We would do exactly that." Caius responded, curtly. "Take the moment to catch your breath." He added, a bit more warmly, although his expression didn't change much.
Crossing the street, Caius approached the nearest pedestrian. "Excuse me," he called out.
Yeul gave a nod to Caius, then looked to Winona when Caius walked off to speak to the pedestrian, electing to answer Winona question more indepthly. "There are many ravines in the area where we usually dwell."
[hr]
[color=edc393]Okay, so let's see what you're up to, here.[/color] Sam thought as the trio entered the city propper. Watching Caius approach a pedestrian, Sam moved his left arm by prodding it with his knee, and activated his cloaking device, then stood up and approached, moving over the rooftops when available.

"In that case, if anyone catches these people, we'll hand them over to you, not the Order. Does that sound acceptable?" the man replied. "And, if you're planning on opening an investigation, we have reason to suspect that these people lured members of the Order to Bristol and murdered them."
[color=Texas guy]"Hooooooowdy!"[/color] The man turned to Caius, taking off his hat and waving. [color=Texas Guy]"Well looky here? You one of those anime hillbillies my daughter keeps going on about?"[/color] He then asks, squinting a little at Caius. [color=Texas Guy]"What can I do fer ya."[/color]
I have no clue as to what you speak of. Caius thought as he looked a little dumbfounded by the pedestrian's response.
"I wish to know if there has been any otherwordly activity in this area." He stated after a moment's silence and blinking pronouncedly. "That is, other then myself and those with me."

You nod, standing silent for a moment as you think. You idly say that being hunted is quite different from what you thought.

The leader thought for a moment, then speaks again. "Very well. We have had reports of this battle, and it is going to be brought up in the trial. I shall also take this opportunity, for I assume you have a way to contact the Order, to ask you to relay an invitation for diplomatic overtures. We must know who we are dealing with, as extradition is a distinctly possible outcome to the trial. If they accept, we would be happy to meet them in the Frankfurt city hotel. We have a diplomat there already who will inform us when they arrive."

The man handed over a piece of blank paper, and said, "You can write down your message, and the relevant details, and I'll pass it along."
[color=Texas Guy]"Well shoot, me and the misses came up here to do some travel and see some sights. There hasn't been too much in the way of oddities I'm supposen, although there was that one guy that said he saw some space aliens back in '72 in our 'otel lobby, and I recon, that old hag by that walmart seemed rather strange. Shooot, that old gal needs a old helpin' of Jesus."[/color]
The man paused as he had another look over Caius and his accompanied group. [color=Texas Guy]"You're not one of those girly men, are ya son?"[/color]

"Indeed. I've been on my own in hostile environments before, but actually being targeted..."Samus gave a small frown. "It is unsettling. We need to resolve this business with the knights as soon as we can."
Caius stared blankly at the man for a moment, then shook his head lightly, deciding the man must be completely off his rocker. "I won't be dignifying this with a response." He stated -speaking less haughtily, and sounding slightly irritable - then walked away.
He walked by the first pedestrian he saw, and approach the one after that, raising his hand to get their attention. "Excuse me," he called out again.
Yeul blew a small sigh and turned away from Winona. I suppose that sates your curiousity, then. Seeing Caius move, Yeul followed after him.

[color=Texas Guy]"God damn hippies..."[/color] The man grumbled eyeing Caius as he walked off. [color=Texas Guy]"What is this glorious country comin' too..."[/color] He continued as he strolled off to go buy some whisky.
[hr]
[color=Some regular guy that isn't from Texas]"Sure..?"[/color] He said as he looked Caius over too, but took a bit more time looking at EMily and Winona before bringing his eyes back to Caius. [color=Some regular guy that isn't from Texas]"Some sort of costume party you guys going to?"[/color]
