Klain laughed as he climbed toward the window. He loved following Lady Black. Every day was like a long game of hide and seek. Klain didn't like the Idea of breaking into a castle, he wasn't a thief he was a fighter, and the very thought of being mistaken for one left a bitter taste in his mouth. well it was ether that or the root he was chewing on. As he arrived at the window he breathed a sigh of relief. "Alrighty then! Heeeeere cooooomes Klainy!" Klain burst As he pulled himself into the window. Suddenly a force hit him and he fell into the water below. Klain watched with a mix of amusement and anger as a boy swum to the surface. Swimming t the top he saw a group of people coming up. climeling out of the water Klain began giggling. "Well...*giggle* What do we Have here? *giggle* Oh I know! I know!....*giggle* Why yes Billy what is it? Well teacher their sword practice. *taking a deeper more sinister tone* Why Yes Billy. Lets see how they last. *Histaric laughter." He then drew his sword.

Finally getting to the window, the Wyvern went throught he broken window and was not in the open sky. Looking down to see if she could find the Novice she knocked off, she found him and a familiar person. Slamming her palm against her face, she would let out a small sigh as she wasn't surprised at the sight she was now looking at. Klain was now looking against a group of assassins that have come for the person that was sitting on her saddle with her. Making a quick choice, she would go for it. Since her Wyvern and her armour was black. It be hard for anyone to see them go past them until it was to late. Diving down towards the moat, the claws of the wyvern opened up. Now just above Klain, the wyvern snatched him up. But as they were passing by, Venessa took her lance and would smack a few of the Assassins into the moat or to knock them over. That even counted for the novice as well. Skimming across the surface of the water, Venessa had the wyvern fly upwards into the sky. Looking back down at the castle, she could see that the castle was almost fully gone.
"How come it is that I say your name Klain and ou magically are there to find me? Anyways, do you see a safe place to land? My father and his troops are on their way to the castle to kill off any Assassin's that are still there."

“It seems the target has left the castle”, spoke one of the senior assassins as he pulled himself out the moat. “Should I give the signal”, spoke another as he followed the first. “Go ahead. We don’t want to loss men for nothing.” With those words spoken the first man pulled out a crimson tome and lunched a red bolt into the air. The bolt exploded sending a signal to all the other assassins to retreat.
“Orcleous”, spoke one of the senior assassins as the novice finally pulled himself out of the water. “Did you not say you wanted to be the best?”
“I did”, spoke the novice as he spit out a mouthful of dirty water.
“Then why are you letting the target escape”, spoke the man. Suddenly a splash was heard behind them. Seedle had jumped out of the window and landed into the moat.”
“Curse that wyvern riding wench”, spoke the fighter as he came ashore.
“Seedle you know better than to fail”, spoke another assassin.
“I did not fail”, spoke Seedle. “They just got away. If we leave now we can catch them.”
“Then you better hurry”, spoke another. “From what I hear general Blackthorn is on his way.” A few more crimson blades climbed out of the moat.
“Don’t worry we will get the target this time”, spoke Seedle as he assembled his men.
“You better”, spoke the first Assassin. “You know the price of failure.”
“Yeah yeah I get it”, spoke Seedle as he began to walk away with his men.
“Oh take the boy with you”, spoke the second assassin as he pushed Orcleous forward.
“Come on Orc we have work to do”, spoke Seedle as he rubbed the top of the novice head.
“Hey”, spoke Orcleous as he followed beside him.

"I simple Miss Black. I live to fight and you seem to find fun ones. Hahaha!" Klain said settling into the sorrows graps. He then Noticed the girl in the saddle. With wide eyes he said ["Um whos the Little one? A snack for Sorrow? HAHAHAHAHA! *Clears throat* Sorry I didn't mean it."

Rolling her eyes, she would pull the reigns so that Sorrow went for the roof of the castle. Making sure no one saw her, she had sorrow dive in towards the roof. The girl placed her face against the back piece of Venessa's Cuirass. Just before setting down, Sorrow let go of Klain makin ghim land on his feet on the top of the roof which had a staircase to get down from. Landing finally, Venessa helped the 14 year old down from the saddle as she would speak lightly. "Klain, this is Lorice. She's being targeted by a group of assassin's. Why? We don't know. I'm only told by my father to protect her at the castle until he and his troops arrive at break of Dawn. SO I figured that we hide out up here since no one would expect us to return back to the place that was sieged."

“An ingenious move”, spoke one of the head assassins as he held a pair of binoculars. From below the walls they watched as Vanessa circled back. Their shock troops had already gone off toward the destination that she was flying calling them back at this point would prove to be useless. “It seems that target has not left the nest”, spoke the man.
“Great and our assassins are already fleeing the castle”, spoke the second.
“Looks like we are actually going to have to show our skill”, spoke a third.
“It seems so”, spoke the first as all five of them drew their blades. Without saying another word to each other they crossed the moat and climbed up the castle from a previous assassin’s rope. As the fifth assassin reached the top he was spotted by a guard. Before the man could sound an alarm the fourth shot an arrow from his bow and hit the man in the center of the neck. The first and second began to climb the tower with the rider from the outside using knives while the third and fifth entered through a window. The fourth hid the body and kept watch in case the maiden tried to use her little trick again.

It is a true...Honor..hahahaha*back to origanal tone* Honor to meet you. Hahahaha. Im sorry I'm sorry. Klain walked over to the edge of the roof. Tapping his sword on his shoulder Klain paced the parimater. "You can best defend this girl here. The best I can do is run interference. If their busy killing me their no where near you. I know how much i can take so I won't do anything crazy...Well crazy for me that is. *sinister Laugh* Hows that sound to you?

Venessa was getting a bad feeling. Whispering in the Wyvern's ear she would gently pat it's head. Stabbing her lance into the roof, she would take off her cuirass and pauldrons. Eyeing up on Lorice, she would walk over to her and begin to put on the armour onto her. Sliding the helmet onto the 14 year old's head. She would then say to her in a low calm voice. "Listen to me, you need to get onto Sorrow here. She will fly you to my father's postion. He will keep you safe. I don't want you to argue with me." The scared girl nodded her head as she understood. Helping the child up, she would then yell out "Hyaaah!"
Sorrow ran off and soared into the open skies, flying in the diraction that her father was coming from. The assassin's that were on the walls would hear the Wyvern flying off and would only see what would look to be the rider flying off with no passenger. One of them would say to the other, "It would seem that the rider is flying off towards their reinforcements. So that leaves our target and her body guard that was left behind."
Venessa pulled her lance out and looked at Klain who was, well, acting like himself. A Nut case for better words. She would place a finger on her lips as if for him to be quiet hoping that he would get the idea that this was to be a surprise for their hostile Guests.

The third and fifth reached the top of the tower first. As soon as the firth reached Klain and Vanessa position he threw a hand axe at Vanessa. From his perspective the maiden without the armor was the target and she was to be eliminated as soon as possible. The third immediately drew his blade and attacked Klain. He did not want him to strike at the fifth.

Klain jumped infront of the hand ax. The blade sank into the upper half of his left arm. Klain caught the attack ment for him in a deadlock. "Learn some manners would you. Its not nice to interrupt someones date." HAHAHAHAHA! The crazied swordsman punched the man in front of him below the belt with his buckler causing blood to shoot from the ax wound. He then hit the the double overed man behind the head his pummel. "That ones yours!" Klain said charging the ax fighter. The fighter through two more before Klain was on him, the swordsman deflected both with his sword giggling all the while with a increasingly depraved smile on his face. Klain swung down hard, cleaving through the mans hand ax handle and sinking his sword in the mans shoulder. The fighter pulled another ax out with his good and buried it in Klains side. "Very Goooooood" Klain purred as he pulled the sword out and ran the man through. "But not good enough" He the stabbed the man again and again.

With Lance in hand, she would see another attack after Klain from the swordsman. The shaft of Venessa's lance would meet witht he sword as she would look at him shaking her head. The Rider would quickly take the lower half of her lance and attempt to sweep the assassin's feet from out under him. Quickly taking out her Bottle of Vulnerary, she would see it was little then quarter of a bottle. Thinking quickly, she would take it and pop the quirk out of it. From behind Klain, she would pour the medicine over his wounds to heal him. "Make it last Klain, that was the last of my bottle. Now show the Axe man why they call you Hydra you ravage dog you." Quickly getting back onto her target, she would twirl the lance a bit and put the point aiming at the swordsman. Tilting her head, she would let out an evil smile as she went quiet.
She was somewhat thankful that her father taught her the ways of a Knight's fighting style since he wanted his first born to be a Knight like he was. Taking the tip, she would make a semi-circle on the ground as she would then lift it up aiming at the man again. "You attempt my life, and your going over the edge. I swear that to you Assassin." it seemed that her plan had worked out after all. Now they needed to wait for the reinforcements, which might mean that they would need to get to the ground floor or even inside the main castle.

“Where did that little runt go”, shouted Seedle as he and his men searched for the wyvern. The night sky made perfect camouflage for the black wyvern.
“There I see her”, spoke one of the assassin as he pointed toward a wyvern flying in the sky.
“How in the world did she get over there”, spoke Orcleous. It was in that moment that Seedle realized that they had been doped. “We have been doped. That wench was never going to actually planning on leaving. She flew in this direction and then turned around. They are probably back in the castle already.”
“And it looks like the sun is rising”, spoke another assassin as the light from the dawn started to break the horizon.
“Does that mean Lord Blackthorn will be here soon”, asked Orcleous.
“I believe so”, spoke Seedle. “Truth be told I don’t want to be here when he shows up. We are pulling out men. If you fall behind it is your own funeral”. With haste Seedle and his men moved to avoid the incoming army.
Meanwhile the first and second assassin reached the top of the tower from the backside. To their great surprise the target was not there. Instead they saw the dead bodies of their comrades.
“Where is the girl”, spoke the first assassin as he drew his sword. The third drew his twin swords and prepared to back up their leader. The light of the sun appeared over the horizon and shinned off his tempered blade. The second assassin turns toward s the light and spoke.
“Bad news the General and his troops will be here soon”, spoke the second.

"Me take use healing salve, Now thats Funny. hehehe. But I thank you for the thought." Klain said pushing the dead man over. He pulled the hand ax from his arm with a wince. " I wonder what todays flavor is?" *Licks ax blade* mmmm Blueberry pie Just like mema used to make. Wait I don't have a grand mother." He then dropped the Ax and placed his palm on his face snd looked up. After a few secounds he began a low slow laugh that picked up in speed and volume. Letting his face go but still laughing he walked over to the side and looked down. Hahahahaha! Hello?! Heloo?! Anyone listening? Hahahahahaha Becouse I'm waiting and no ones coming. Well execpt this meat puppy." He then kicked the dead man over the edge. "Woopies! Aaaaaaany waays you can find me sooooo. I'm....Coming....for...you." Wahahahaha. Turning around and smoothing his hair back he gave lady Black a smile and a thumbs up.

Venessa looked at Klain for a while as she saw him kick one of the dead bodies over the edge. Shaking her head, she would smile a bit. 'A mad man that he is, but he has his...' Hearing the voices behind her, she would quickly turn around and see two more of the assassins standing there with their weapons drawned out already. Her Iron lance came back up as she held it in her usual defensive postion. The tip aimed at them, but the lance close to her body so she had better reaction time. The question rang through her ears like nails to a chalk board. "If your asking where miss Luna is, then you need alittle more work then I originally thought. Sorry to say cahps, but you chose the wrong person to hunt down. And this time around, you failed to get your target. At this time, she's most likely in a good hiding place."
In truth, her mount sorrow flew all the way back to Blackthorn castle where she dropped off the 14 year old girl in safe arms of Venessa's mother who was ready for combat. Sorrow began her journey back towards the location where Venessa was, and was flying at a fast rate too. The wyvern stayed high into the sky as the sun started to bead up on the horizon. Venessa's father and his league of troops marched steadily towards it as well. With him in the lead, the General had his massive lance out ready to kill. Behind him was his three advisors, A Paladin in purple armour, a Sniper and a sage. Behind them was the main force with mixed units of Knights, Caveliers, soldiers, and archers. The forces were almost upon the castle walls as Venessa heard the heavy marching. She only needed to stall them a bit longer.

"The target is no longer obtainable", spoke the first. He was no fool and the absence of her mount told him enough. The two men looked at each other. The second drew out a knife and threw it towards Venessa as the first rushed to the right side of the tower. He pulled a grappling hook from his back pocket and tossed it towards the edge of the tower. Rather than slowly climb down the rope as a normal person would do he jumped off the side of the tower allowing the rope to swing him across to a nearby wall in one swift motion. The second moved to follow his example and threw his own.
