Bounty Inc Role play

[Knight Errant]

Besides the provisions he bought, everything of his was already prepared before reaching town.

As for telling the others what exactly he had on him... he never did that. He considered it none of their business.

"I am ready..."

[Haylie]

Grey returned her two short swords to her back, followed by her bow (but no quiver; odd), her backpack containing several herbs she could use for healing and energizing purposes, and several small slabs of meat. She's a nervous eater.

She'd removed her hood so her ears were clearly visible. She was among friends, it didn't matter what anyone else thought.

"I'm waiting on you guys."

[Shadowmaster]

"I'm all set." Rath says. He hadn't bought anything in the town, since he was carrying all he needed.

[Katty]

(OOC: Just waiting for Guen to post so I know what she has and such. When she does post, you lot can begin going down the path to Macion)

[Mistress Guendolen]

(Sorry, my internet time has been limited the past couple days.)

Saira didn't need to procure much for the journey. At least, not here, anyway. Most of her gear consisted of things she brought with her- beside the sword and dagger, she always carried, she had her sickening-gas gems, attached to the cuffs of her gloves (one use only apiece; they were small), the feather-float stone on the hilt of her sword (that one had five uses imbued; one was taken from a past mission, so there were four left), and a small sack full of little smoke bombs tucking in one of the pockets inside her cloak. Beyond that, all she bought in town were some hardy travel rations. "All right, I'm ready to go," she said. "Anyone else got anything they need to do before we hit the road?"

"Master Kale, Master Kale!" The little girl ran into the alley, worry lining her delicate face. "Someone is saying bad things about you!" A barrel in front of her smirks. It shivers and Kale crouches down to her level. "What are they saying, Maira?" She stops to catch her breath. "I was taking some money from some of those gamblers you told me about, and they were saying that you're going to die!" Kale barks out a laugh and shakes his head. "Oh no, my child. They are simply betting that I will die. That doesn't mean it will happen." Maira lets her shoulders sag and she is visibly relieved. "Now child, do you know why they they were betting on my life?"

Maira nods. "They said that some people were coming to town after you. They hunt bonatees." Kale scratches his chin. "You mean bounty hunters?" Her eyes brighten. "Yes! That's it!" Kale tilts his head as he continues to scratch. "Did they say how many?" Maira shakes her head. "No, but they said you would either kill them or be killed. They said those things were most likely." Maira looks up at Kale with water in her eyes. "You won't die, will you?"

Kale smiles and puts a warm leathery hand to her cheek. "No. I'm not going to die as long as you don't want me to." She sniffles and hugs him as best she can. "Then you'll live for ever and ever!" Kale hugs her back. "For you I will. Now child, let's see what you stole today. If it's not worth more than yesterday's lot, you'll have to go without dessert like we discussed."

[Knight Errant]

Grunwalde sighs and starts absentmindedly running a poison needle between his fingers deftly, the closest sign to impatience he usually shows.

"I am ready... I have been for some time."

[Brnin8r]

Lathan sighs and shrugs after looking at his equipment. He was prepared enough, but he was always wanting things more 'sophisticated' than his items. There seemed to be intricate magical items on every person but his. His family heirloom remained the only item of personal and superstitious power. "Well I think it's high time we head to Macion." he said flatly, a little put out by his own analyzing.

[Katty]

The bounty group starts heading down the path. You are moveing, but not a dead sprint. If you ran, you would get there faster, but be very tired. To much so to get your bounty. For this mission, Saira will be in charge. It is her turn after all. The mission before this one, Grunwalde was in charge, and before that Rath was.

The path is rather uneventful, nothing much happens. But you do here a russle in the bushes after a while.

[Haylie]

Instinctively, at the rustling bushes, Grey jerks her head toward the sound and reaches for the bow on her back.

"What was that?"

She takes a sniff, using her remarkable wolfish smelling ability.

[Knight Errant]

Grunwalde pauses, glaring into the bushes. In his fist suddenly there are several needles.

It could be nothing, of course... but they have stayed alive so far by not ignoring potentially dangerous signs.

[Brnin8r]

Lathan's sword leapt out of it's sheath and he took a defensive stance in front of anybody. What good would he do with a sword behind all the ranged folk? "We mean you no harm if you're intentions are good." he said as he approached the bush a little more, looking to Saira to see if she had any leaderly motives before he further investigated the bush.

[Katty]

A young wolf boy jumps out at you. He is all beat up. All he has on is a dirty loincloth. There are beating marks all over him. He looks hungry. His claws are somewhat broken. His long thick hair is a messy, very messy black. His eyes are filled with hate, fear, and confusion all at once. He jumps on Grey.

"You smell good."

[Haylie]

Grey looks surprised, to say the least. She jumps backwards just a little bit, her hand still near her bow.

"And you smell... unique."

[Brnin8r]

Lathan cursed himself for letting his guard down long enough for the wolf boy to jump out and at Grey, he spins quickly to get closer to the wolf boy, his sword drifts to the boy's neck, "I wouldn't imagine her on a platter until you consider her allies first. Who are you?" he didn't want to seem terribly hostile, but the boy had already gotten past him and had jumped at Grey
