Hal was now nervous being in the same room as Jya from the way she had started acting and speaking. "Um... So.... You never told me your name." He sat down on the bed next to Jya, keeping at least one eye on her, he wasn't sure what she would do next.

Jya lied down for a moment to focus her thoughts. Her vision returned back to normal but she couldn't shake a yearning for something. First things first, she needs to address her friend here.
"My name is Jya, I would like say I'm just an adventurer with no particular destination in mind," she replied to her companion with a more normal tone with of hers. It seemed odd, her reply was calm and normal, yet she had so easily hidden away that gnawing at her core. She felt she could easily tell a lie and sound totally natural. Well than again, she had her own practice through the years.
"Is there anything you could use here for a weapon, I can't kill all three of them by myself, Hal," she said with an apathetic tone. She didn't seem to care about the lives of those bandits one bit it seemed. The other times she killed was for survival... Was it the same now?

"I... I... I don't know. I haven't looked for anything of the sort in here." He started to look nervous. "The only training with any weapon I had as 'stab, pull, and keep going' from when I was in the Bern army a while back." He had looked away from Jya trying to avoid eye contact with her. "I guess I could look for something... I don't know how much of a use I would be though."

"Well everybody got to start somewhere!" Jya encouraged, getting up and patting Hal on the back. It was true, she started in just a lowly little village that no one really paid any attention in. It was all by chance that she even started adventuring. She coughed a little after her body seemed to lurch back to normal. Looking around she found the paper just lying on the ground. After careful examination, there was no longer any words on it. The only way she found it was the same paper was due to stain. With a quick sleight of hands, she stuffed it back into her pocket.
"If you could stall even one of those guys I'll be grateful," she said, formulating a plan on the spot.
"Yes, this'll work, I'm the perfect bait...Hope there is something you could use here..." she said, looking around the dusty area herself.

Hal had sighed not wanting to engage anybody in combat but it looked like he had no other options. Looking around he only saw a broom laying around, so he picked it up. "I think I could slap them around with this, but I'm not sure how much of a use I'm going to be." He had slouched over a bit thinking of fighting.

No, she wouldn't be the perfect bait, Hal would. If he has a strong reaction and panics, that'll be even better. The problem is if he was willing or not. She didn't want to force him to do anything he was against. He seemed, well brave in his own way but he appeared to not have as much experience as her. She continued to think but decided either way she was going to get out of it in some way.
Getting up she opened the door. It wasn't quite night time but she didn't want to wait. Her body ached and she needed to find a way to relieve. With that she plunged into the forest quickly noticing that the bandit hadn't strayed too far from the area.
"Hey you idiots! Want your things or not?"she yelled at the top of her lungs. If Hal had any objections than they just had to find a way to handle the situation without a bait if the bandits get there too soon.

Hal started to panic as Jya shouted in that manner. He saw some ratty old robes laying around so he threw them on trying to cover his face. Yanking her back he pointed to the room they were in. "Hide in the closet, I'll try to trick them into looking under the bed. That's when you attack them."
He went on the porch starting to sweep hoping they'd show up and not notice his face.

Jya was glad she wasn't alone after all. With her hands grasping her blade, she dove under the bed. She did her best to hide in the shadows of the bed. Her hands whitened the more she hardened the grip. The whites of her knuckle began to show. She slowly silenced herself and stopped her movement, ready for an ambush.
The bandits had come expecting something.
"You, old man, seen a girl round here?"

Pointing in the house. "Yea some witch bolted in there saying she needed a place to stay. I haven't had any company in a while so I let her stay" Hal had said trying to sound old. He had started to sweat a little 'Oh man I hope this works'

The bandit's rushed into the cabin, in a closed in space. Their axes won't be of much use now! Jya sprung from the bed and jumped enough to stab one of the man in the throat about twice before being pushed off. The man toppled over and fell dead without much struggle and her eyes seem to zoom out. As the bandits moved there seemed to be an afterimage. He moved so slowly... She pushed her already weak body forward but it felt as though her body couldn't keep up. Her slowness caused fist to slam into her stomach as she sliced the juggler of another man. She toppled over against the war and the last of them looked in horror at his dead companion or soon to be dead companions. Soon he made a run for the door.

WHOOOOSH! BAM!(OoC:Yes, the bandit saw the Batman popup of bam as he was hit) Hal had rushed in and saw one of the men trying to flee and swung the broom with all his might. He had hit him right in the nose with the handle, the man dropped his ax and grabbed at his face as blood started to gush from his nose.

Jya wasn't sure what came over her, as the bandit fell over from the broom attack, she leap at him. Her dagger was pointed outward to thrust into the man's neck ready to end his life. Before it could pierce his throat she caught herself.
"This isn't right," she said to no one in particular. With a ease she flipped over her blade to the hilt and slammed it into the man's head just enough to make sure he was knocked out. He probably already killed the other two but one more alive seemed to help her conscious.
"I need to clear my mind," she muttered getting up and staggering past Hal.
"I think I need to figure out who I-I," she struggled for her words.
"Best time to move is the night after all," she said, walking towards the woods. She wondered where her next destination would be.
