OoC: Whoa we can now add attachments? I'm going to play around with that later... >.>
BiC: Hiro looked at his map closely, there was something on it. After scratching at it he noticed something was stuck and what looked land was part of the ocean, meaning he went too far north. Sighing he kept east. For a couple of hours he had wished he had somebody to talk to, preferably a woman. His mind got tired of the silence so he began to talk to himself out loud, pretending he was talking to Elise or was he prepairing for the bitch slap and lecture to come?
It was getting close to night now and he was out of food. Where the hell was Kraft's men? Where was something that would be easy for him to kill and eat? He ditched that fish, it began to smell but that was when he still had something to munch on. In the dim sky he saw smoke, it wasn't much so it had to be people. Who where they and what were they up to? Neither mattered if they had food, he was sure he could lie his way into eating that night. But that smoke looked kinda far, that means a run or a quick jog if he wanted to make it before complete sundown.
He alternated between running, jogging, and resting a couple of minutes. There was a skim line of purple from the sun, night fall had almost made it when he made it. People in white robes, similar to what the people that followed Kraft wore. He saw two in the robes, a man and woman then a younger lady with the two who wasn't dressed in the same fashion. None of them noticed him just yet so he took out his knife and cut his clothes a bit and rubbed some dirt onto his face and smearing it into his sweat then wiping it off onto his shirt.
Approaching the group he waved. "Bless St. Elime that I found people." A rather large man with an axe cut him off, he was there faster then Hiro could react and bumped into him. "Who are you small man, and what are you doing here." The tall, buff, jack ass scared Hiro, he moved faster then him so escape if things went wrong was out of mind.
"I... I was chased out of Delfia a couple of days back from some local thugs. They followed me into the woods where they nearly killed me." The man picked Hiro up by the shirt and peered into his eyes. "Why were they chasing you?" he boomed. "They found out I was planning on turning them in for forging soul notes." The man saw the fear in Hiro's eyes. But it wasn't coming from the lie he had on the spot, it came from the fact he was done for if the man raised his axe.
The old couple remained silent. "Karl put him down." The girl came around the corner ordering the brute.
"I'm sorry miss, I only worry about you and your folks." Setting Hiro back on the ground as he spoke. "Thank you miss. May I have the name of the lady that came to my aid?" Hiro would of thrown himself at her acting pitiful trying to flatter her but a monster next to him would slice him into two if he tried that. "My name is Jessica. This is Karl, our 'hired' body guard. And those two are my parents, James and Jill. What is your name?"
'Prince charming' almost slipped from Hiro's mouth. "My name is Hiro, I guess my parents had high hopes for me. Say are you guys on a mission or something?"
"Yes, come and sit and eat we'll tell you all about it." James spoke up waving his hand towards Hiro. One thing he was graceful for, other then his good looks, was the fact he spent the last 5 years working for Kraft. He could bull crap his way into their hearts, and maybe into Jessica's pants.

"We're traveling from town to town healing the injuries of the wounded, may it be physical or emotional. As we tend to their needs we spread the word of the great St. Elime and Sir. Kraft." Hiro had a smug grin as he shot a look towards Jessica as James said 'tend to their needs'. James leaned in a little as he squinted at Hiro. "Is there something on my face sir?" Hiro started to worry, did this guy know him from somewhere?
"Hunny, haven't we seen this man before? In Kraft's castle?" Jill spoke up after spending most of the time trying to remember where she had saw Hiro before. "Ah, yes. I couldn't figure out why he looked so familiar. He was branded a thief if memory serves me right. So you figured you could use our profession against us to steal from us didn't you?" Hiro had a stunned look on his face, how did these two old geezers see through his web of deceit he started to spin.
Jump to his left and roll, Hiro had listened to his instinct to move and avoided a mighty axe crashing where he once sat. Jessica screamed as the loud thundering boom of the axe hitting the ground, sending parts of the stump Hiro sat on everywhere. Karl proved to be a tad bit slower then he first put off, or was it he took his time to avoid alerting Hiro before the attack.
Hiro couldn't match his power, nor could he run. He had one and final option. Before Karl could bring the axe out of the ground Hiro stood from his crouch laughing like a mad man. "Branded a thief, in order to get to Kraft. If you were there for more then a week you should of known what Kraft does to those who are unwilling to follow him." Karl looked towards the couple for orders, they were to stand ready for the time being. "A thief I may be but I do it in the name of St. Elime. I steal information that weeds out the phonies. There are many noblemen who lied about who they were loyal to, just to keep their titles. Some even funded the king and still do." Hiro had walked towards the couple throwing a sly evil smile towards Karl.
"If I were you I wouldn't harm a hair on my body, within moments you'd all be dead. There are assassins about 10 minutes away you couldn't get away." Jill stood as she spoke "Stop speaking lies child. Kraft was able to find them due to the divine visions he had from St. Elime herself." "Them damn visions were the evidence I showed him, the divine part of it was his knowledge of who to trust. I may get my hands dirty but it's for the safety of Kraft and his followers as such as you three, or four. Right now I'm on a mission as such as you are but I need your help."
"10 minutes away you say? If we appear to have you hostage they'll show themselves correct?" Hiro looked at James as he spoke up. "Father, please we do not need any more violence or bloodshed for this week." Hiro had made his way to the three and sat down next to Jessica as she spoke and put his arm around her. "This girl is correct, we don't need either of them. If you seek validation of my story we can wait for my group. But don't it strike you odd that I've got a group of killers just to protect little old me, and out side of the city? That's where you two can help me." As Hiro took his arm off of Jessica, if one had looked at her face they would of noticed she was blushing a little. "When I was weeding out the would be assassins attempting to join his ranks in his army I learned something.
"Five years back, there was a group of people that stood against the master mind in the rise of the Bandits. Most of them fought for 'justice' and 'peace' but during that time St. Elime rose from the grave to due so herself in the name of the church. They struck her down so they can place their names in history and try to wipe out the names of the heroes of the Scouring. They were planning on bringing down Kraft himself so he sent me out to find them, and the assassins to finish them off.
"I'm a lone man, I haven't traveled as much and you two seem like you've done more in a year then I have my whole life. Wo-" James cut Hiro off. "We'll see when your so call group gets here. Until then, don't speak again." Hiro nodded and waited in silence.

Gregory spat on the ground. They had been tracking Hiro for a while now and it seemed he had split from the group he used to be travelling with. Gregory cursed. This Hiro. . . He did not like him. Sure, he had done great things and sparked the long awaited rebellion, but he was arrogant. He did not even truely believe. And he was just a lowly thief. He, Gregory, was a professional assassin. He had EARNED his position. He was a master at his trade and his trade consisted of killing. Nobody had ever heard of him? Why? Because he was GOOD at what he did.
Suddenly he heard something moving next to him.
"Yeah?" He whispered. "Found him. Two-hundred meters to the North. What should we do? Keep tracking him? He's with another group."
Gregory got his knife out.
"F$ck it. This thief has been playing us for too long. You and Yuma come with me. The rest of you take positions. Kill them when they try to attack me. Poison darts, throwing knifes, crossbows, the works. I'm tired of tracking this dog."
With that being said, Gregory hold up two fingers and then a thumb. Then he signalled towards the North. Without a sound a body of men started moving. It seemed the trees were sighing.
After a short, dead-silent run, the assassins (all of them very experienced) arrived at the scene. They had found Hiro, all right. He seemed to have found the company of some other people. Enemies? Gregory did not know, but his men were ready.
He, Yuma and the messenger jumped out of the bushes. They wore their black attire and they were a scary sight.
"Good evening, gentlemen."

Hiro felt an uneasy feeling in the air moments before three masked men showed up. As the three appeared out of the bushes Hiro and Karl both noticed them right away, one of them could of wore anything. Hiro would know that man's frame from anybody's,he noticed Karl started to act. Moveing between the three and Karl Hiro spoke. "Gregory, these people are allies. They can help us get into cities unnoticed to find records of the people that could slaughter you in plain daylight."
"Young sir, no need to try to protect us. We have our own hired hands to do so, that's why I showed no sign of worry when you spoke of these people. The king has his own men hiding, preying on us men and women of the church. Without us Lady Elimine and Lord Kraft's words wouldn't spread to those who were unfortunate to hear them before." Within moments of him finishing speaking a dagger pierced the ground, with a card in it's handle. It had a black background with a skeleton hand pointing. Hiro knew that calling card. "How many of them did you hire?" "All of them. I'm guessing you know them?"
As she spoke a death cry from one of Gregory's men was heard as a shadowy figure pulled a dagger from the man's throat and it was as if it had disappeared into the darkness that surrounded the man. "What the hell is going on, call them off. We don't have to kill each other."
Hiro stared Gregory in the eyes. "Tell your men to drop their weapons, I know the man that dagger belongs to. A contracted killer, but as a body guard he only kills those who pose a threat. He's the 'kindest' of them when it comes to protecting those who contracted him. A shift death is delivered by the Hand of Death. The Iron Wall will just beat you with his fist, or your own arm if need be till you remain still for the rest of time." Jessica had ran to her parents trying to huddle be hide them.
Hiro and Gregory never got along, maybe he was the target? He wasn't sure but he wasn't going to let harm come to Jessica, such a pretty face.

Gregory looked back into Hiro's eyes. He only showed a cold stare when one of his men got killed. Impossible. They were professionals. Professionals don't get killed.
"STOP. WE ARE MEN OF THE PROPHET."
He then looked at the so-called allies. The ones who had contracted other hired hands.
"We are allies of the Prophet as well. Call back your dogs, our I will unleash my wolves. There seems to be a misunderstanding." Calmly he got the seal of the Prophet out of his pocket. He threw it to Hiro's new friends. He then looked at Hiro.
"They have their proof. I don't yield to mercenaries." Then, slightly louder, "STOP THIS MADNESS. NOW."
His men knew what to do. Once a truce was established, they will come out. But if he or another man got killed, they will unleash hell upon these travellers and their henchmen. None will survive and the only thing Hiro will remember will be the sight of Gregory slitting his throat. But for now, there was a silent tension in the air and all depended on the actions of Hiro's new friends and their reaction on the authentic seal of the Prophet.

"I am Shadow Walker, I need that fire put out to make my exit. I'm going to have to get with the others after they deal with Gregory and his men. There, if I can get to that bucket and put out the fire I can aid the others. I need to by Hand of Death some time to make his way here." "Your wolves are sloppy, they are weak, useless compared to those dogs. They worked for years right under Kraft's nose without being heard of. They operated right next to the King before that and he had no news of who they were. Like I told you, they kill if anybody poses a threat, a weapon is a threat."
Hiro bent over picking up the seal and placed it in his pockets, he was going to need it after the night was over. "Fine young sir, but it as Hiro says these men and women aren't ones to be taken lightly. Come over and sit along with us..." "Gregory" Hiro added in for James.
"Hand of Death and the Iron Wall are the two most experienced at combat what are these geezers up to if they hired them all. Doppelganger is a master of disguise, he's got some but not much fighting abilities. Brawling Bear wouldn't stop fighting unless the other side was dead, even if commanded to stop so he hasn't done anything yet. That and I haven't heard any armor moving so the Iron Wall and Brawling Bear hasn't even showed up yet."
Within after a few moments of what sounded like combat ending armor clanking came from behind then stopped near the couple. Iron Wall slammed him tower shield into the ground near them.

Gregory wasn't too impressed by the threaths made by Hiro. Gregory hadn't known fear for years, nor did his men. They were slightly impressed by the the clean kill one of the hired hands had made, but they did not let their guard down. However, Gregory wanted to avoid a battle, especially when he dealt with friendlies.
"Fine." Gregory threw his dagger into the ground and with a gesture of his hand another bunch followed. Silently men dropped from trees, crept out of bushes or climbed out the sand. "We are friendlies. As said before, we are men of the Prophet. It is against his will to kill or hurt us, something you've already done. I regret the death of one of my men, but he was lazy and uncareful and his death is deserved." He bowed lightly to the older couple and stared at Hiro.
"Give it back, Hiro."

"Even if he wasn't lazy and the most careful one of you all the result would be the same."
"Since you have your ranks show themselves then we shall do the same." The Iron Wall had said piercing the ground with the tip of his lance. Standing in the bushes only feet away from Gregory was a man clad in all black, with a dagger covered in blood. Walking past him he grunted a 'humph' in disappointment in the so called assassin joining Hiro and the new group.
Another jumped out of the wagon, clad in all thick leather hide from head to toe with steal gloves with what looked like bear claws on his knuckles. This man had appeared to make Karl look like a puny man with the amount of muscles his body had. He had made his way with the others.
"Hiding in the sand, to due so in such speed. Hiro you don't give them enough credit. Even if you're comparing them to our group." That woman's voice, she spoke as if she was apart of them but she did sound familiar. Elise had come from her hiding spot, which was with the Brawling Bear and joined the others. "Elise?" "Later Hiro, we've got more important things to worry about." Nodding Hiro looked at the others.
Hand of Death, Brawling Bear, Elise, the Iron Wall, and Shadow Walker were all in the open together but that left one other. "The only ones that would of survived were the ones hiding in the sand, that's if they didn't attack." said the masked one of the group.
"That voice, it sounded off. It wasn't as cold as it was before, did he get soft? No wait the only I don't see is Doppelganger, I figured he was playing the old man. This plays into our favor if there was a surprise waiting."
The masked one kept talking "Has being the lapdog of Kraft himself made you sloppy my kind Assassin friend?" "Quite you, skilled you may be but it's against the code itself to speak without the contract signers permission in situations like this. But why should I give it back? Wasn't my orders to use it to get what I need in other places? I had you hold onto it so I didn't lose it but I may need to keep it for now."
"Jessica sweetie could you run along while we talk. Karl go with her to make sure she's safe." James then turned to Hiro. "Now where were we?" The two had made their way from the group as instructed by Jessica's father.
"I was going to ask you guys to help us gain access to restricted area's using your status as holy men and women so I didn't have to risk my cover being blown. But there's more to your mission then you told me. There would be no reason to hire almost all of the Cult of the Damned for protection."
"Our goal is the same as the man who started the whole revolution years ago. To ensure St. Elime and Sir. Kraft's words are spread and enforced. Oh how much better the world be if that was the case. Using our missionary reasoning nobody would question the assassination of the leaders of towns, terrorizes that defild the name of St. Elime as us being the ones carrying it out."
"What's your take on this Gregory ol' boy."

Gregory arched his eyebrow at the bunch of mercenaries in front of him. These men. . . Assassins? They seemed like a bunch of freaks to him. He had to admit that they knew their trade. Maybe it would be wise to travel with them.
"Officialy, we have another task, thief." He said to Hiro. "We should be looking for the murderers of Saint Elimine. . . But off the record. . . I would love to see how this plays out."
Gregory just stared at the other assassins. Two groups of assassins. Big groups. He grinned. They could raise hell in any town. They would be absolutely unstoppable. His decision to play along seemed to be a wise one. But Gregory had his own agenda as well. Hiro was getting arrogant, and one day or another, he will get him. His men were dead silent. None of them was afraid.
"Men. Rest. I have some things to discuss. Now, who am I supposed to talk to? You, masked one?"

"No it is I you need to speak to." James spoke up when Gregory had asked that question. "Looking at what happened in Ostia they show records of people that matched what Kraft gave me. One of them used to be a noble appointed by the others, he should know where his other friends are."
"Are you mad Hiro? We all would die if they find out what is going on." Elise butted in. "Do you forget who you're speaking to, the best thief any of you've met, noblemen are my targets so I know how they think when it comes to security." "But this is you we're talking about, something shiny that looks worth anything will distract you." the mask assassin said. "Or any pretty girl around." Elise added.
"Gregory, think I'm up to the challenge or not? Are you on board for that plan James, to target Ostia like so."
"If what you speak of is true, then that man shall receive divine punishment at the hands of the men and women here for murdering Saint Elimine."

Gregory started grinning.
"Hiro, you're a basterd, but I love that plan. I'm with you. My men are as well."
He then looked at the other mercenaries and the 'leader' of the pack. True missionaries of the Prophet. The world will burn at their hands and victory will be closer.
"What are we waiting for? Buckle up, men, to Ostia!" The men grabbed their weapons, and provisions and were ready to leave.

"I'm riding with the old couple and their group. It's best we keep ourselves away from you Gregory." Hiro looked at James. "If it's not too much trouble be we must leave this moment, this trip is going to take a while and a lot of ground needs to be covered. If you're not attached to the horses each town we'll leave them behind and I'll get you guys new ones that haven't been worked near death."
"That is fine sir. Let us go then." Hiro and the new addition to their party gathered everything in the camp and boarded the wagon and set off. Hiro sat next to Elise and across from Jessica, what a view for him. He tried not to speak right away, but a little bit after they set off he curled over as he felt Elise's elbow being driven into his gut. "W-wh-what the hell was that for!" he spit out after catching his breath. "That's for not writing for so long. And this isn't for coming out to check on me like you wrote a few times." She had shifted and slapped the hell out of Hiro.
"Hehehe... If you don't mind me asking, what is your relation to each other?" Hiro dared not to answer, Elise might beat the hell out of him... Some more. "That lap dog and her were really close friends years ago, till he hired us to protect her during the whole bull crap with the king. He's the former member of our group you've heard about." The burly voice of Brawling Bear spoke up.
"This 'lap dog' saved your asses a few times. A couple of papers almost made it to Kraft's desk if it wasn't for me keeping tabs on his nobles. Apparently you made a scene in a bar, said something somebody found interesting. They did their research and made it sound as if you worked for the king, sent it to a noble to have Kraft track you guys down so they could get a large reward." "Yea, but the Hand of Death put an end to him. We're not as careless as you think. Bu-" the masked one was cut off by Hiro, like he was. "Not careless? I had the report in my hands before burning it. But it does look like my suspicion was right, where is the Hand of Death?"
"He had a compartment attached to the bottom of the wagon. It's his current hiding spot, he most made his way out of the shadows down there while we were packing up. He wasn't careful to hide himself, he probably figured we all weren't paying attention. He has got a little bit sloppy in the past few years. Speaking of which, has your killing skills improved any Hiro?" Doppelganger said as he pulled his mask down. "Your ablity to sneak around was second best, after his."
Elise chuckled "Hiro has and always be too scared to take another life." "That doesn't mean anything! He-" Elise shook her head and closed her eyes as she layed it back as Jessica started to talk. "Look little girl, that man isn't anything more then a thief. He'll say anything and do almost anything to work his way into your pants. Then when you let him screw you, wake up and see he's gone. He's done it many times before. I'm the only woman that woke up with him still there"
Jessica blushed for a quick second then got angry. "Whoa way to ruin everything Elise." Faking a stretch he put his arm around Elise. "Get your arm off of me asshole. I'm still pissed at you." Elise barked at him. "Fine! I'm just going to try to find a way to doze off, I'm tired as hell." Pulling his arm back he leaned back some and fell a sleep. During the hours of his rest, a good 12 hours of waking up and dozing off again, they made it to the fork in the river(by the U in Etruria on the map). Karl and James both took shifts sleeping and keeping everything moving. Each stop for new horses they took tabs of how much Hiro was going to owe them upon waking. The last stop they made they decided to rest at an inn to get something to eat and a real chance to rest.
OoC:If anybody wants to you can join in at that point.

Hiro almost instantly woke up once they said they were staying there for a bit to get proper rest. Elise ruined his chances of fooling around with Jessica and sleeping with her that day was out of the question, well for a while he figured. "I've... uhhhh... f**k it, I'm going to get laid. Have a good one." Hiro said with a wave as he exited the wagon. The others knew what he was going to do so why lie.
"See told ya, the man is scum. To think I almost fell for him when we were younger. But I still love him, he's a great man when he wants to be." Hiro made his way into the crowd, remembering he was broke and owned James and Jill a decent chunk of change he had to make some money then work his charm. Bumping into a man he slipped his fingers into his pocket taking his wallet. "Sorry sir, I my legs are feeling weak at the moment lost my balance for a second." the man told him not to worry and was on his way.
The guy had basically no money, just enough for a drink or two at the pub. Maybe money could wait, he needed to feel the touch of a woman. He looked for a decent pub and took a step in one and saw a few decent looking ladies so he stayed.

Scouting out the women two had a man sitting next to her talking, much younger then him. Hiro was getting old so he couldn't work his charm as well as the younger guys. Curse them, but Hiro was still the better sweet talker then most of them.
He saw one fine looking lady by herself, clearly she looked better the others but was alone. What gives? Hiro asked a local patron of the bar the woman's name, Kallen. His next question was why she was alone, basically one of the richest people in town claimed things about her which most guys didn't want to bother with her. "That's my cue, flatter her and worm my way into her pants and out by time the others plan on setting off."
Walking to the bar he found out what she ordered to drink, got two of them then sat next to her and sliding one closer to her and put his arm around her. "Say, Kallen, what do you look so glum? You look better then any of the other girls yet you're all alone." Sighing she looked at him. "I haven't seen you around here before, you must be new. But since you know my name you must of heard the rumor about me." "Yea yea, complete bogus bullcrap if you ask me. If you were really a demon out to steal souls of men you must be a failure of a succubus."
Leaning in close to her he started to whisper into her ear. "I am a servant of Kraft himself, spend the night with me and I can clear your name." Kallen looked into Hiro's eyes, they showed so much honesty. "Really?!?!?! How could you do that." Hiro smiled at her. "You'll see soon enough, I can't speak of it here. Too many... Let's just talk about it later. Now let's go back to your place so we can... Spend some time ALONE WITH EACH OTHER." Hiro spoke a little bit louder so people would hear him and look at him to see who he was with. Getting up the two started towards the door.
Poor soul, foolish man, idiot, slut, whore, and things of those nature were whispered that Hiro caught as they exited the bar. Such names they used for her wasn't fitting for one of her loveliness. Soon enough her name will be cleared and Hiro would get what he wants.
On their way to her place Hiro past Elise, who saw him, winking at her he kept going. "Hmph that fool didn't waste any time." Hiro and Kallen got to her house, spent a few hours doing each other. It started to get dark when he was getting bored of her. "Now, name and location of the ni- ass hole who said that stuff about you. Also why did he make up such stories." Hiro almost called him a nice guy for keeping her basically untouched for him.
"That big house we past on the way here, that's his home. His name is Bors, one night he took me out to dinner it was real fancy and all and showered me with gifts during the date. Then when we got to his home he wanted me to sleep with him, I even refused to kiss him good night, he was a pig. The next day he told everybody I tried to seduce him to steal his soul."
Hiro got full clothed and looked at her. "I've gotta be going, the things I'm wearing are too bright for what I'm going to do." Kallen get up and ran towards him. "But how are you going to clear my name of being a succubus?" Hiro smiled "Well step one is me leaving, if you were a succubus I wouldn't be leaving alive. Step two is I'm breaking into his home, taking stuff for you to black mail him with if there is anything. Step three is in the morning I'll get you and explain the rest then. Also what does the man look like, just in case." She had told him a description of Bors, Hiro left and went to the inn he saw Elise at and found their room.
He got his thieving kit, Shadow Walker's outfit his nifty lock pick, and the remaining home made smoke bombs. "So it looks like you've got some work to do. This town bores me, I'm going with you." Hiro looked at the Hand of Death. "Well try to keep up, from what I hear you're slipping up and going soft."

"Soft? I'm just as ruthless as ever. Ha! A lap dog of the 'prophet' is calling me soft." Hiro laughed as they were leaving out the window to the ally. Once both were on the ground Hiro spoke softly to the Hand of Death. "Sure Kraft didn't contract me in the proper manner but a client is a client." "If that's what you want to look at it then do so. Now what are we up to."
"I found me some chick to sleep with, a fiiiiiiine one at that too. I didn't have to try hard to have a few hours of some good sex too. She's been branded as a succubus and I told her I could help her clear her name. Then she had told me it was a rich dude that started them lies." "Haha... Now I see, you're going to reclaim your money and some belongings from this man to pay back the three Jay's? So any targets to be spared?" Hiro looked at him. "Only the head of the house hold, Bors." Hiro had told the Hand of Death what he had learned about the man.
The two made their way in the allies, using hand motions to let each other know when it was clear to move. Even thought it's been five years since they teamed up they still remembered what their signs were for. Hiro had scanned the fence once they got there to find the easiest way past it. Climbing over was the only option so they didn't have to walk through the front. (OoC: Going to say HoD for hand of death now.) HoD gave Hiro a boost up, before jumping down Hiro reached down and helped HoD up and both landed at the same time darting towards the bushes.
They saw only one door up front, and one at the back. There was a decent amount of windows around the large house. Hiro pointed to the back, then up asking if they should go in the back door or a window. HoD twisted his hand as if he were turning a key then opening a door then the back, checking to see if Hiro had his lock pick. He lifted up his left hand showing the device he rigged up years ago with a lock pick on it. Both nodded and crept their ways to the back. The only light were from the candles inside the house and from the waxing crescent moon.
There were few rooms towards the back with light, but they were upstairs. Nearing the back Hiro peeked around the corner, he saw a dog chained up that appeared to be sleeping. He turned to HoD and grabbed his left wrist as he curled his fingers inward warning him of a dog, then put his hands together and tilled his head and placed them under it indicating it was sleeping.
HoD nodded and move quickly and quietly towards the sleeping dog. He had made his way to it without it waking and grabbed it's snout and squeezed as he put his dagger in it's head. As he was doing that Hiro made it to the door, slowly testing to see if it was locked or not. It was so he worked his magic with the lock pick and it was open. Both men made it in and the door closed and locked again without alerting anybody.
Now they had less light to work with, which was good for the two. With all the years of working in the dark they could see just as well in the dark as they could in the light. Foot steps were making their way to the two, both moving behind something waited for them to get closer. A woman's figure came in view and HoD moved in grabbing her from behind, covering her mouth and slitting her throat and dragging her away as Hiro move towards her candle and putting out the fire and scanning behind her to make sure none saw what happened. HoD placed the dead body in the closet near the back door. The two had kept their path down the hall quickly this time due to no hiding spots for the time of need.
They had came to a fork in the path, one led to a living room and the other to the study. Hiro nodded towards the study so they made their way inside. There was the path to the hall and one door, it's path would have the door inside of the room so Hiro placed a chair at an angle so it wouldn't open while HoD stood at the door way where they entered, to kill any that walked in.
Hiro made his way to the desk and tested each of the drawers and they were all unlocked. He grabbed stacks of papers then moved to a corner where a candle wouldn't show too much light if one peered down the hallway. He lite the candle and started to read, that was the one thing he couldn't do in the dark was reading. Just lame poetry and novels, mainly of love and heroism. Now Hiro was second guessing his decision to spare Bors, clearly the man was useless to write about that stuff.
A loud scream came from down the hall, where the back door was. HoD checked to see what it was about, another servant had opened that closet door and the dead woman's body fell upon them. Both men looked at each other then the window, the door had tried to open and somebody started to ram it trying to enter shouting for somebody to open the door. They then both darted to the window, Hiro grabbed some stuff that looked valuable while HoD grabbed something and threw at the window breaking it.
After jumping out they ran towards the fence, both jumping and climbing on their own. "Split up, meet back at the inn." "You go left it'd be quicker to get back. Don't get caught." "Yea, the same goes for you. I remember the rule about capture, I've got my dagger with me." The two went different ways
As Hiro ran he jumped over trash cans and bums sleeping in the allies. Bors estates was now lite up with armed men searching the surrounding area looking for the one who murdered the woman finding nothing at the time.
