"Bored", spoke Bones as she walked down the road. It had been less than three weeks since the disaster back in the city. Most of the gang had scattered to the wind and the few that remained spoke of dissolution. Separation seemed more of a fact now than a rumor and Bones was taking it hard. In response to this Bones simply walked around the plains. She ate what she caught and slept in the grass. Since she was a little girl she had always been apart of a bandit gang and she was sure she was going to die in one as well. However at this moment her gang was gone. There leader, Paleface, dead.
As Bones walked she saw what she would consider Sheep or in more common terms a person ripe for robbing. He had a scared look on his face and carried a bow. To make it worse it seemed that his back pack was broken, which meant he could not travel far. It was almost the perfect opportunity to strike and rob him. As a matter of fact Bones was surprised that he had not been robbed yet. Then from the corner of her eye she saw somebody planning to do that as she spoke. "Well this guy has got bad luck", spoke Bones as she began to walk away. However the pink haired maiden stopped in her tracts. There was something about this twirp she liked, or there was something about the bandits getting ready to attack him that she hated. The truth of the matter was that Bones was itching for a fight. She truly did not care what or who, but she needed to strike out at something. Everything was just so frustrating.
"How about you all just come out and save the kid some trouble", shouted Bones as she walked out from behind a tree. This would be the first time Bones moved into the young man's vision. As a result Bones would seem to just step out of nowhere and challenge up the brigands still hiding behind the trees.

"In the boozer, you’re a loser, if the dice you’re shaking. You’ll get hurt, and lose your shirt, sit there cold and quaking. Lady Luck, your gifts are bad, you trick us, then you make us mad, make us gamble, make us fight, and sit out in the cold all night." Ulai sung his merry tune in the lowest register of his voice. His little forest walk was enjoyable if a bit lonesome. He'd forgotten the two middle verses of the Bernese drinking song, and merely hummed along to the tune he knew. Then on the last part of the song, he came back in, " But now let’s roll the dice again, and win some drinking money! Who thinks about November’s rain while it’s still warm and sunny?" He'd done that part in his head voice, and was pleased to hit the note at the end, it typically gave him trouble. Now, which song to sing next?
Ulai fingered the hilt of his sword. He drummed them against it's pommel to the tune of the song. Where must he be now in the forest? The middle? Somewhere thereabouts for certain. The swordsman spit into a muddy puddle as he walked past it. When he put his head straight again, he saw something you never wished to see. Three bandits about to trouble a young man. Then another warrior, a woman with an axe stepped in front of the boy, and spoke in his defense. Ulai was behind the bandits, and spoke, "Aye, it'd be best if you just left him alone. We wouldn't want anyone to get hurt." Ulai unsheathed his sword quickly, and tilted his head as he looked at the bandit leader. His eyes probably showed a little fear, but sometimes fear was a good thing.

-"In the boozer, you’re a loser, if the dice you’re shaking. You’ll get hurt, and lose your shirt, sit there cold and quaking. Lady Luck, your gifts are bad, you trick us, then you make us mad, make us gamble, make us fight, and sit out in the cold all night.", Chitaru slowly stopped to heard the song, it looked like it could be heard from Illia to Bern with the volume at which was being sung but it was nice for him, the song reminded him of the nights at home when his father drank and his sister slept, the song sound like Samus songs ... even the volume.. How does she sleep?.
Then the song stop for some seconds only to continue -"Maybe he frogot what was next or something like that", he continue with his journey only to found a pink haired woman (i think) that seemed to be a warrior for her scars, she walk out of her hideout to face Chitaru -"How about you all just come out and save the kid some trouble" She said -"Aye, it'd be best if you just left him alone. We wouldn't want anyone to get hurt." The song man? he look back to see him only to find three more persons, they seem to be frustrated by what happened -"Nch... i going for the red boy you two for the others" and then like animals they went for their prey.
The one whit the spear ran at the right and the other at the left wile the leader wait for the red swordsman. As fast as he could Chitaru left the two swords and ran to where the woman was, changing his bow to his right hand -"miss, heroic or selfish we are in this together so give me a hand and i help you in whatever you need" he look back to face the two bandits and took an arrow form his quiver, his hands were shaking and sweating calm, you don't have to kill you just have to keep them away and then the shaking stop, he point at the one with the iron lance and shoot at his leg, he miss but the bandits collide with each other trying to avoid it and that give him time to hide in a tree and help or fight at distance.

So there was another, thought Bones to herself as she heard the other man add himself into the fray. Bones was hoping to kill all of these guys by herself, but it seemed that fate had other plans. The moment both Bones and the song man revealed themselves the bandits rushed to attack. The boy quickly rushed over to Bones saying something or whatever. To be truthful Bones was not really paying attention. All she knew was that he though she needed his help. The fact that she revealed herself and jumped into the fight should have been clear enough to him that she was sure she could take all three of them at once.
Even though the boy missed his shot was effective. Bones was not sure if he did that on purpose or if it was an accident. Either way it opened up a opportunity for Bones. "Hii yay", shouted Bones as she rushed in and swung her axe with both hands. Her target was not the one with the lance, but the brigand holding the axe. As the maiden brought down her axe the brigand jumped backwards to dodge. His step was a bit slow as Bones axe slashed him on his chest. However the wound was very shallow and only broke the skin.
"Curses", spoke Bones as the lance bandit stabbed his spear forward attempting to strike at her. The maiden was forced to abandon her axe and roll away. The duo saw this as a victory and began to press the attack toward Bones. For a moment they forgot about the archer who hid behind the tree. After all the mental talk about not needing his help it seemed as if Bones was in a tight spot. However the war maiden had a counter plan. As the duo advanced Bones reached into her back pocket and pulled out something that would flip the scales.

Oh good. The leader was rushing him, the one who motivated the other two through fear most likely was coming for him. Ulai drew his sword from its sheathe, and assumed his defensive stance. He lowered his hips, and set his left foot forward. Holding his sword in his left hand, he held out the other as an opportunity for his opponent to land an easy blow. It was a risky gambit to offer your own hand as bait, but that was about the only thing Ulai could think to do. The other man appeared to have farther reach, and if Ulai could get him to swing too early and miss, he could get in close. His opponent however, did not take the gambit.
Instead he elected to stab at Ulai's gut, and the Nabatan swordsman dashed the blade away, forced to lift his left arm to avoid the man's sword lopping his hand off at the wrist. Then he danced closer to the man while he was still hit with the recoil. He slashed the man in the ribs, and the man knocked it away easily. Ulai took a step closer still, pushing the man back. He dodged a blow to his head, and stabbed forward at the man's ribs. His sword actually made contact, and the highway man showed his shock on his face. Ulai drew his blade back to stab the man again, but was clocked hard in the jaw by his opponent. He stumbled to the ground, and instinctively rolled out of the direct path of a downward strike from the other swordsman. He shot up, and had to block a quick blow from the other man's sword.
Ulai stabbed the man again, this time aiming higher. The man tried to push the sword away with his own, but Ulai's speed behind the thrust pushed it through the man's right shoulder. The man cried out and dropped his blade. Ulai quickly drew out his sword, and stabbed the man through his stomach twice. Then he pulled his sword back out and turned to the last two fighters. He sprinted towards the lancer, probably the tougher opponent. He tackled him from behind, and both men lost their weapons as they fell. Ulai was on the bottom of the tussle when it stopped rolling, and the man grabbed his collar slamming his head into the dirt. Ulai struggled, but couldn't get the man off of him.

-"De Dree" He say while looking at a nervy tree and biting his bow, Perfect i can hide here he think while trying to climb the tree -"Hii yay", he reach a stable branch and hugging her approached his point all as he could to see the situation, he took out his bow of his mouth whit the right hand and started looking.
Did the song man dash th-"Bhum" the bandit was kill... and his blood was all over the place... he was stabbed to dead, Chitaru vomit but was holding it in and he eventually swallow it, -"Buag..i-i-were are the other two? he look at the other side only to see the song man in the floor being stepped on by the bandit with the spear, and the woman disarmed and about to be attacked by th-"Bhum" the axe bandit's chest was bleeding, Chitaru was shaking and almost fainted for the still running blood but he needed to help them or they will die and the bandits will go after him, plus he leave two sword back there.
He swallow it again and take an arrow of the quiver, he took a deep breath and aim at the bandit with the spear, You dodge this once and you will twice and then he scream -"LOOK HERE IDIOTS", the two bandits like the fools they were look at the trees, and when the spear one look at where Chitaru was he shoot, the bandit doge the arrow and let go the song man as planed, Seeing this he closed his eyes and hugged the tree hoping this will end.

Well it looks like it is time to see if this smoke bomb works, thought Bones to herself as she began to pull it out. Before she could act a arrow flew from behind and struck on of the bandits. Like fools the both of them turned to see who had struck them. "The pipsqueak", spoke Bones with surprise. The fact that she got aid from him was a major insult to her pride. Still she was not going to let his opening pass. Quickly bones shifted her hand. Instead of grabbing hers smoke bomb she placed her hand on her hand axe.
"Keep your eyes on the real threat", spoke Bones as she tossed the axe into the air. Like a little whirlwind it spinned through the air at astonishing speeds. The weapon planted itself into the expose throat of the brigand wielding the axe. The one with the lance moved to strike at Bones. She was the real threat as the young archer was now hugging the tree for some reason. At the moment Bones was weaponless, but she was not defenseless.
As the soldier rushed forward and stabbed with his spear Bones quickly turned her body at the last moment. Quickly moving her body to the right she twisted her torso causing the spear to stab right by her. She then grabbed hold of the lance with her right arm and held the shaft in pace. The brigand tried to throw a punch, but Bones right was faster. The war maiden hit the man square in the jaw causing him to back up. The blow made him groggy and left him a bit daze, but Bones was not done with him yet.
Quickly the brigand rushed forward. Like a Olympic wrestler she lowered her body and grabbed him by the legs. The maiden then straddled him like a bull and smashed her elbow into his jaw. "Son of @#$%", shouted Bones as she began to pound the man's face in. He and his friend had caused her to loss face and she was not going to let that go. Over and over the maiden began to beat his face in with her fist. First he struggled, but after awhile his body simply went limp. After his face was completely covered with his own blood bones finally got off him, but that was only temporary. The maiden then retrieved her axe and finished the job. A clean blow splitting the skull.
After the kill Bones reveled in the moment. She let all the aggression just flow out as she retried her tools of the trade. With blood still on her hands she turned toward the singing man. "So what is your story", she asked while dripping blood.

Ulai was saved by both a distraction from the kid, and a severe beat down on one of the bandits by the axe wielder. He lifted himself slowly of the ground, rubbing his head. As the woman killed one of the brigands in cold blood, he quietly wished he'd stuck to his former position on the ground, staring up into the trees. The Nabatan swordsman stood up, and went to retrieve his sword. When the weapon was back in its sheathe, he dusted his back off. Turning, he called up to the archer in the tree, "Why don't you come on down? I'd like to thank the monkey who saved me." The dark southerner joked with the tree climber. Then he turned to the pink haired woman just as she asked, "So what is your story?"
Ulai scratched his neck and laughed, a boring one, he thought with a smile. He cleared his throat, "Well, I'm from Nabata, been a bunch since I left. Been a bodyguard, been a merchant, been a merchant's bodyguard, been a sell sword, been a musician, been a painter, been a writer. I've been a bunch of stuff. But the one thing I've always been, is Ulai. How are you? I'm Ulai." Ulai smiled warmly at her. He spit on the ground again, this time not anywhere near any puddle. He looked over to the dead bandit leader, and though with a more sad attitude on how he was the first man he had killed in some time. At least three months in fact. Oh well, at least it was for a good cause.

-"Why don't you come on down? I'd like to thank the monkey who saved me." ....is it over?... seconds after listening to the song man, without looking at where the battle had taken place, Chitaru go down the tree holding the bow with his mouth and making sure that any arrows from the quiver fall out, -" Hmp" he let go the tree a few inches off the ground falling on his feet and then walked to were the others were trying not to see the floor, bumping several times with the tree roots in the attempt. -" So what is your story?" The woman want to chat a after this?... she is really used to thishe think while leaning on a tree for the stress caused by the blood, How they can be that calm in battle or kill without problems? how many times have they been in situations like this?... well a promise is a promise and i need help too, after a few falls he reach them while they were talking, -" So thanks for the help Ulai and you miss, i owe you one but can you tell me were are the swords i left behind before? im not a fan of blood" he ask after listen Ulai´s story trying to don't see them directly, -" Call me Naigto, i was going to Carrahe to make a delivery and in the way i fell in a puddle and my backpack broke, that's why im like this" he say still holding his bow.

"The name is Bones", spoke the maiden as she stared at the big man. The run introduced himself, but Bones paid him little mind. She did not like weaklings and the Runt was all weak. Still he had helped her out in the last fight, though she did not need it. Bones had a little surprise for the two idiots. That smoke Bomb would have most definitely done the trick. Still there was always the chance she could have messed that up as well. At the very least he did not steal her kill so she can forgive his weakness.
"So many jobs and no professions", spoke Bones as she looked at the big man. She then turned toward the squirt and pointed her blood covered hands toward a clean patch of dirt. "You dropped your swords over there squirt. Next time take better care of your equipment. A merchant who can not keep hold of his items is both dead and broke. Your like a bandit magnet walking around here barely clinging to your belongings. What in the world was going through your mind you fool. Could you not tell that trio had been following you for quite some time? What would you have done if the two of us not showed up? Then once the fighting got bloody you ran and hid in a tree. How is hiding in a tree going to save you from bandits with axes! You need to think more before you act fool!"
One moment Bones was pointing to his lost swords and the next she was scolding him for being careless. The maiden had spent far too much time with her three stooges. She was starting to become a overprotective mother. With the bow squirming up like Shu use to Bones had substantiated him for the runt. It was a bad habit that she was going to need to break. Ruthless, that is what Bones needed to be. The moment she let her feminine emotions come up was the moment she would find herself dead. A bandit can never loss there edge.
"Pshaw, look at me acting like my mother", spoke Bones as she reattached her iron battle axe to her back. The metal gave a pinging sound as the powerful magnet took over and held it in place.

Ulai nodded as the young archer spoke for a few moments. So he was a merchant of sorts? Or maybe just a delivery boy? Either way, it was interesting. "Sounds like you've been on quite the trip there little monkey." Ulai went and collected those items which the young man had lost. They weren't far between, and the care-free Nabatan could tell that blood made the boy rather squeamish. No reason for him to become sick or uncomfortable simply because he and the lady weren't the ones to actually drop what the boy was presumably carrying. Ulai handed them back to the little monkey with a smile. He then turned and listened to the woman explain to the boy how he should have handled the fight.
Ulai nodded, "Well, she's not wrong lad. If you are going to be carrying weapons, or something that can be used as a weapon, you have to be prepared to use it in defense of yourself. Or, better yet, hire some guards, get someone who knows their way around a battlefield step up and keep you from gettin' your head or an arm chopped off. I've seen a man get an arm chopped off. Wasn't pretty." Ulai grinned down at the kid. He seemed nice enough, and as frightened as he was, he wasn't sure the woman should be so harsh with him. However, he was right to be scared, the world was a pretty scary place sometimes. He grinned at the pink haired woman, "Aye, a very motherly sentiment. 'Now now son, make sure that when you kill the man you clean off your weapons. You wouldn't want them to get rusty would you?"

As the redheaded man spoke Bones let out a frown. She did not like being compared to a mother. Sure she brought it up, but it was more like a self insult rather than a complement. Bones hated the very idea of a mother. She loved her own mother, of course, however she understood that having a child would only lead to the dulling of her axe. When one becomes a mother they put there heart and soul into there children. She cares for them, looks after them, and tries to teach them how they are suppose to be in the world. That amount of devotion and emotion toward a single person is a weakness. Not only can the child be exploited to get you to do things that you do not desire, but they can also serve as a crutch to hold you back in a fight. Bones remembered well what happen with the triplets and the archer. The maiden had allowed herself to become close to the boys and ended up truly caring for them. Then they were taken hostage and Bones was forced to disarm to save one of them. It it had been the wrong opponent she would have been dead. Such emotions are a weakness. One that will be exploited on the battlefield.
"Alright that is enough", spoke Bones as began to walk away from the boy with the bag and the burly man. "I don't have anymore time to waste here. I need to get back on my journey. Kid watch your back next time. If you don't you might end up a meal for the crows." With that Bones strapped her axe back to her back and began to walk away. She did not want to give her name or say any goodbyes. She really did not know them and getting to know them was not on her objective list. The maiden feared she would do it again, just like she did before. She was already lecturing the boy on how to properly move around, if she stayed longer she might even end up traveling with him, and before long she would be considering him her little brother. She already has three of them holding her down, Bones did not need more. Without another word Bones walked off leaving the two men to whatever fate the heavens had in store for them. At this point Bones did not care just as long as it did not come back to hurt her.
