Looking for Blaze

[Blaze]

Blaze meeps and stops the attack, the unfurled scroll hitting the floor.

"Wow... s-sorry, didn't think it would do that much environmental damage. I'll stick with the little ones from now on." she says, sounding sheepish despite the robotic inflections in her voice.

[Feng]

"Well whatever that was, it did its job. The Chikuza are worm food..."

He walks over to a nearby barrel and plunges his hand in, withdrawing a sorcerer.

"Most of them anyways! Looks like someone actually survived that onslaught."

The sorcerer meeps, kicking his legs and trying to escape.

[Blaze]

"Aha, so here is the cockroach."

Blaze crosses over and draws a Desert Eagle, sticking it under the Chibi's chin. His face is reflected on her helmet.

"Wanna live cockroach? Answer any question this man has accurately, and you can scuttle away."

[Feng]

The man nods before turning to Bones, his face however turning pale.

"Y-you! You're the Gentleman!"

"Ah, so it seems you realize just who you're dealing with," says Bones with a sly grin. "In that case, I'm sure I don't need to tell you what will happen if I catch word of your kind plaguing the tourists in this sector."

"B-but the Seal Tribe. They're just insects compared to the might of the Puf-"

"Shall I turn you in to the Chibiwanbanshu? I'm sure they could always use another cadaver..."

"EEP! No! NO SIR! I'll flee and never trouble this spot again!" O___o

"Good. Because I would hate for Blaze to have to break from her busy schedule to exterminate some vermin... Run along now." -.Q

Bones drops the sorcerer to the floor, who wastes no time fleeing back to the Market Proper.

"So annoying..."

[Blaze]

Blaze chuckles as her body armor vansihes, replaced by the dress once more.

"The Gentleman? Rather grandiose title there Bones."

She picks up the ginat scroll and it vansihes.

"Anyway, where too now?"

[Feng]

"Even though I'm a mortal, I've managed to become entangled in the mythology" says Bones with a grin. "With firepower like that, it won't be long before you too have a pet name whispered in fear amongst the Chikuza..."

He points to a stairwell in the distance.

"That's the way to go. Better hurry. The vultures will be swarming for easy pickings soon..."

[Blaze]

"Pfft, I don't care about titles." Blaze says. Regardless, she follows Bones to the stairwell quickly.

[Feng]

"This leads to the Well of the Shaman, one of Doc's favorite spots to shop before... well, you know. Anyways, we won't be harassed by Chikuza goons down here. Trust me..."

[Blaze]

Blaze nods, giving Feng a pat on the shoulder.

"We'll get him back."

She descends rapidly!

[Feng]

After a long flight of stone steps the two find themselves in a large natural cave that is dimly lit by a bluish light. The air is filled with a pungeant smell, something similar to... burnt toast?

A hunchback chibi, eyes milky from advanced age, hobbles over to the two.

"Just a moment, just a moment. Let me ring up this customer's order and I'll deal with you two soon enough!"

[Blaze]

Blaze wrinkles her nose a bit.

"Smells like what happens when Logos tries to cook breakfast..." she murmurs, leaning against the cave wall as she waits

[Feng]

"Be right back" mumbles Bones heading into a nearby door. "I have to go take care of something. Try not to get kidnapped while I'm gone, alright?"

[Blaze]

Blaze looks rather offended at that.

"I am not some damsel in distress Bones!" she yells after the mastermind

[Feng]

Bones laughs, before dashing off.

As Blaze is left alone another figure accidentally brushes into her, a slender fellow dressed in a blue jacket.

"Excuse me..." he mutters.

[Blaze]

Blaze stands aside for her man. No pockets means no need to fear pickpockets!

"Sorry."
