I hate this. Anik thought. If I don't knock him out in one minute I will kill him.

Anik felt the kick coming, and stepped back to avoid it. At the same time, she brought down her second sword, hoping to cut through his leg. The parried sword she held in place.

After a bit of looking, Topaz spotted Speedy and crouched down in front of him. [color=FFCC33]"Hey, I think you owe me a race."[/color]

Shara would have had to run a short distance before she reached Yeager, allowing him to make a wide slash at Shara with his long scythe as she came at him, trying to keep some distance between them. "Such dull tactics for an assassin..." he replied as he struck.

[color=006d5b]"I hear them. Their footsteps, their breathing, their clothes. People make lots of sounds, and when you've had 17 years relying on those sounds to get by, you pick up on them easily."[/color] Matilda explained. [color=006d5b]"But a lot of the time, I try to avoid fights. Or I let Joel do most of the fighting."[/color]

[hr]

The guard brought his leg down when Anik dodged, then stepped back away from her second sword.
At the sound of fighting, a few more guards had emerged from the cave in which Yeager had demonstrated his blastia earlier. They all had swords at their hips but, due to the distance between them and the sounds of the combat, they had come out with bows in hand.

You stop as you realise your opponent will simply use his superior range, and you barely manage to avoid getting slashed up. Stepping back, you call out to Anik that she should leave now. You wait for her to get running before you yourself turn and run, though not in the same direction. You head north, hoping that Anik has sense enough not to lead the guards straight back to the group.

OoC: Yeah, I'm gonna hold off on fighting in the future. Without maps, it is far too difficult for me to keep my spatial awareness.

"I SAID THIS WAS SUICIDE!" Anik called out to Shara, partly because she had the feeling that this would not end well, partly because she would be able to "see" her surroundings with it.

As she heard Shara call for retreat, she herself retreated as fast as she could, while calling to Yeager:
"Sorry man, no hard feelings!"
She would head west for now.

As Anik started retreating, the guard she had been fighting pursued her.
One of the other guards aimed his bow at Shara and fired an arrow, however it missed her, and struck the ground a little to her left.

[color=006d5b]"Yeah, I've been traveling with him since the last time the whole 'showing up in another world' thing happened to me."[/color] Matilda replied.

Yeager was thoroughly disappointed with the half-hearted assassination attempt. He briefly considered doing something about their escape, but decided it wasn't worth the effort. "Hmph, bold enough to strike in broad daylight right in front of the palace, but cowardly enough to flee at the first sign of trouble. At least add some grace the next time you try that, ja?" he called out to them as they ran, before turning to enter the palace doors. He payed no attention to the wounded guards as he walked in.

You hear Yeager's words echoing through your mind, along with your cheeks turning burning red at the embarrassment of this whole fiasco. You keep running, sheathing your sword on the way, until you are well clear of the city. Only then do you stop to catch your breath and take in your surroundings. Through the furious beating for your heart echoing through your head, only one thought survives clearly. [color=0066cc]I need to train.[/color]

When she was sure no one else but the guard was near, Anik stopped retreating. Instead she turned, whistled, jumped higher than an average person could do, and brought her swords down, one of them directly into his heart, one of them to counter any attempt he made to block her.

Aqua briefly looked back towards the city, concerned for Shara and Anik, but username was unsure if they were close enough to see each other.

Speedy answered Topaz:
"Oh, yeah, I forgot that. Should we do it now? But we will leave the others behind, if you don't say where the goal is."

After Yeager entered the palace, the guards closed the doors behind him. Another guard led him up the stairs, into the blade of the building. After a minute or so of walking, Yeager would be led into a room, in the centre of which was a marble table. At one end of the table was a Calibethan man who looked to be in his fifties, wearing obviously regal white and blue attire. At the centre of the table was Califorth, still in his armour, with two older Calibethans on either side of him, also armoured.
Directly opposite Califorth was a woman, who looked around the same age as the Prince, and was wearing a blue and white dress. To her left was a man in white and blue clothing, that seemed much less intricate than that of the two other unarmoured figures. The only remaining seat was to the right of the woman.

"Mister Yeager, I presume?" the man at the far end of the table asked. "I am King Calidyne the Third."

[hr]

Anik's leap stunned the guard just enough for him to react slower than he needed to. He went limp as Anik's blade pierced his heart, bleeding internally.

As the guard bled out his life, Anik whispered:
"Silence ..."

With the sound of some birds she made out a tight alleyway, dragged his body there and placed it so that it would take at least some hours for him to be found.

Then she moved north, keeping near the border of the crater, and searched for Shara again.

Yeager made an elegant bow to the King. "Ja, milord. You presume correctly. I apologize for my lateness, but as I'm sure you've heard there was a bit of a disturbance."

"But then we have to go through the city again! Is there a way around the city? I don't want to crash into things!"
