Henry swallowed and awkwardly frowned. "He wants to see you in person. He says it is a very different mission." There was an awkward laugh and he shook his head. "When Mr. Appleby says it is different, then it means that it is more than just bizarre." He laughed strangely, "So as a fellow assassin, I recommend you go and see him in person."

Jasper laughed, and took his gun off the table and placed it back into its hiding spot on him. "Oh, they all catch my eye, Mauro, that's why I have them." He laughed again, shaking his head as he stood and walked back over to the bar. "You probably want one of my more fruity or nutty blends to go with that amazing glazed quail, eh?" He took a bottle from under the bar, and placed it on the wooden surface. He quickly poured himself another drink of bourbon and downed it before going and handing the bottle of beer to Mauro.


He paused, glancing at the worn glass Mauro held. "Yeah, I know that a bottle rather than a barrel for a fine beer may seem unconventional, but the makers imbue the glass with enchantments to enhance the flavor and the buzz." The mayor snickered, then stretched out his arm, offering the corked brown bottle to the half-elf.

@Ink Bottle Faerie


A small frail young man approached the elf, his blond hair frizzed and sticking to his face with sweat. "Um, Miss?" He stuttered nervously, "Are you Faervel, the hunter?" The frightened youth was obviously elf upon inspection, despite his undignified twisting of the hem of his shirt. "My master wants to see the woman who catches all the fine game for him."

The crowd paused for a moment, and then screamed out applause. The announcer, on the balcony above Kukulkan roared out happily the two winners names before then shushing the howling audience. The man, in a deep baritone voice announced loudly so the whole stadium (if you could call it that,) could hear "And now our two finalists will fight! Who will win? The talented Lizard man? Or the robust young human?"


(Sir: Ignore that if you had other plans or don't want to use it.)
Kukulkan readied his weapons, as his human opponent watched, waiting for him to make the first move. Kukulkan noted the man's defensive tactics, and decided to take advantage of this. He charged forward, khopeshes ready to swing, as the man shoved his shield forward, attempting to catch him off balance. A small wooden shield however, does not stop an 8 foot tall, 250 pound lizardman, who has been training in the arenas for most of his life. Kukulkan rammed into the man's shield, throwing the shield back, and into the human. The man was thrown off his feet, and landed on his back, sprawled out in the sand. Kukulkan stood over him, and tapped his weapons on the man's chest. He had won.

Mauro released his hand from his sword and sat down with a clink of his armor. He glady grabbed the beer from the Mayor and sat back eyeing the man. "So I'm guessing we have to work with this fool." He drank and at his beer down out of reach of the hit man keeping his hand near by just incase he tried anything. He lent forward and listened to the Mayor. "What do we get for completeing your mysterious mission." He looked over at Neto. "Hey you know how to fight right. Any kind of special training, atleast anything you might remember." Some odd reason he felt an obligation to protect him. Like a little brother he never had. "He pulled bow off his back. "And if it comes to the point we get into a real predicament ill show you how to use this so you can cover me." He handed the bow to Neto so he could get a feel for it.
 
Jasper laughed. "And I kill and rape because I want to. But at least I can act like a normal person." He swallowed, and pressed a fist to his chest for a moment, before looking back up at the Hitman. "And Mauro, right, you don't really have to work with him, just travel for a short while." The mayor shrugged. "Depends, I might have you guys help me around town for a bit. I like to have the interesting ones close." He swallowed again and muttered, "Damn, right after I finished it off."


Jasper turned back towards the Hitman. "The prerequisite to the original contract is..." He paused for dramatic effect and glanced around the room, "You need to try and kill me."
 
"Try to kill you?" The Hitman was puzzled. "So you're gonna pay me 100,000 gold to not kill you? Or is there more?" The Hitman drained his glass and set it down. "How, where, when, with what weapons, how do you want it to look, give me all the details I need now. Only then will I do it." The Hitman liked his contracts to be precise.
 
Neto felt the bow and the bumps in it. Has it been handled for some time? Well, it certainly felt special. Just like the magnum. His hand floated over to it, and he smiled. "I already know how to use this..." said Neto. Wait, what? Did he know how to use a bow? Maybe it was from his past life, before he went into 'this realm'. Weird.
 
Mauro was reliefed that he wasn't directly working the The Hitman. He realxed and looked at the Mayor while he explained The job for Hitmzn. Mauro almost fell out of his chair. "Try to kill you, are you mad what kind of request it that." He thought for a moment. "Is this all supposed to be a game or something. And you never answered my question. What will me and Neto will be doing." He stopped and looked at Neto handle the bow like he had years of training. "So you do know something." He passed him the Bag of arrows. "You can keep it for the time being maybe it'll help you rememeber some things from your past." Mauro looked back at the Mayor. "Ok anyways as I asked before what exactlly are me and Neto going to be doing."
 
The mayor slammed his fists into the table. "Just fucking kill me." The air around all of them was thick now, after the booming voice of the mayor echoed through the mansion. The shadows flickered menacingly and now there was a howling wind outside. Jasper's dark green eyes pierced at the Hitman, sending chills through the spine of any mortal man. "Do it."
 
Neto caught the Quiver (that's what it's called, the bag of arrows), which was filled with bows, and slung them around his back. He put the bow alongside it, and stood up straight. He felt like this was familiar... Did he hunt? Maybe, or maybe it was something else... What were they doing? He was about to say that, but Mauro beat him to the punch. He stood up straight again, looking like an army soldier. He jumped when the mayor pounded his fist on the table. What was he saying? Why would you want someone to kill you? He shook his head, touched his back, and realized. His back was stuffed. His backpack, the quiver, and the bow were too much. He sorted it out. He decided he would put the quiver in the backpack, keeping the zipper locked tight around it as it's sticking out. He put the bow on his back, on top of the backpack. They seem to have come to an agreement. He grinned to himself. Adventure awaits him, it sure does.
 
The Hitman drew his pistol and put it to the Mayor's head. He was unsure of this. "Do you want me to kill you or try to or what?" The Hitman was confused. He cocked the pistol and rolled his neck.
 
The fire burst and popped loudly, roaring up and the flames licking the stone above it. Despite that, the room seemed to darken Jasper's teeth were clenched together tightly. You could nearly see the sparks coming off of them. His eyes reflected the fire, his pupils growing and now his daring glare was absolutely terrifying. Through his clenched white teeth he spoke, his voice low, and dripping with venom. "Pull. The. Fucking. Trigger."
 
The Hitman looked back into the Mayor's eyes. He shifted his grip. The Hitman pulled the trigger. The familiar sound of a silenced gun rang through the room as well as the squelching sound of the bullet impacting the skin and brain killing the Mayor.
 
Neto flinched. Did he just kill the mayor?! "What the heck?!" exclaimed Neto, jumping out of the chair. "We don't even know why he called us here yet! Is he still alive?"
 
The blood spattered against the white papers behind him as Jasper fell backwards, onto the said papers. They flew out from under him, falling like red snowflakes around the room. A few of the papers landed in the now hellishly roaring five. When the papers landed into the fire, it changed colors from a normal red, to a bright green and then to a black. Out of the fire stepped a tall figure, dressed bizarrely. The man's pale face was cold and hard, and the light didn't seem to touch him.


The being that stepped from the fire smiled wickedly, pure teeth showing beneath his oddly colored lips. "Thank you for that. He needs the rush occasionally."


The mayor bolted upright. He was covered in blood, and for a few seconds there was a large hole in his forehead. But you could watch it stitch itself back together, and see the mayor wince in pain as it did so. After the whole closed up, Jasper panted, quickly taking off his now bloodstained shirt and using it to wipe up the blood from his forehead. Underneath the shirt, he was wearing what could be identified as fine mithril chain mail. The mayor seemed in a daze, his eyes wide and bright. The fright in his eyes looked odd on his cut features.


The man that had come from the fireplace looked around the room with his nose turned up. With a simple flick of his head, the room began fixing itself. The papers seemed to absorb and make the blood disappear, then organized themselves into neat piles on the table. The bottles that the men held were filled again, along with the decanter in the corner that Jasper had drank dry. The bottle began to hover, and pour the brown liquid into a crystal glass. The man held a hand out and the glass came flying to him. He then handed the glass to Jasper, who grabbed it eagerly and downed the liquid. The odd man lifted his nose again, and the glass filled. This time the mayor, simply ran his hands through his now clean coppery hair.


Jasper looked over at the odd man, then back to the three guests. "Sorry about that. But thank you." He took a small sip from the crystal glass.

Thats what the man looks like that came out of the fire place.
 
The Hitman took a step back as it all happened. "What the fuck just happened?" The Hitman asked, putting away his pistols. He sat down and drained his glass again.
 
"W-What the hell?" yelled Neto. What just happened? I mean, it's possible to survive a point-blank headshot, but... He looked just fine. He almost pulled the magnum up, but calmed himself down and shoved it in his pocket. No reason to shoot him again. He hastily sat down, and began to munch on the fruit, a new found hunger pounding in his head. When he finished, his throat felt parched. He almost reached for the alcohol, but decided against it. He sighed as he crossed his legs in the chair, waiting for an explanation.
 
The man came to stand next to Jasper, who slouched over , letting his hand dangle in between his legs. The man slapped the back of Jasper's head. Jasper glared, the man gave a knowing glare, and Jasper sat up straight. "You just helped summon Corvalles."


Corvalles rolled his eyes. "Formally known as the God of Corruption." He smiled grimly, cocking his head to the side. He looked absolutely terrifying. "Hello, mortals."


Jasper snorted. "If you hadn't noticed, I'm not part of that mortals bit."


The god looked down his nose at Jasper and scowled. "Technically that is true."
 
The Hitman whistled. "Immortal..." he muttered. The Hitman looked at the two immortals and put on his business face again. "So, do I get paid now or is there more that I have to do." He asked.
 
"What the Hell." Mauro screamed as the Mayor was shot in the head. The flames the man were all a blur. Mauro snapped back too it when the Mayor stood back up. "What kind of witchcraft is this." He sat down mazed at what just unfolded in front of him. He listened to the man who just magically appeared and The Mayor speak of imortallity. "I don't care about that now I cam here because you said you had business for us. After that show I not sure I want to stay here any longer. So please tell us what we need to do and will be on our way."
 
(Can you use exclamation marks and question marks instead of using periods? It kinda sucks the fun out of your paragraphs. Uh, I'm not being picky or anything, just giving you suggestions)


Neto's eyes practically popped out of his head. What the heck is happening?! "Yeah, what're we doing?" he asked. Neto kinda wanted to get out, but part of him wanted to stay to see what was going to happen. Before he knew it, he was standing up, and he was in the doorway.
 
Viknus, who may or may not have fallen asleep on the side of the road(depending on whether or not my delay in response skipped a lot of time), walks into the town, inhaling the cool air deeply. As he enters the city, he begins searching for a general store, not one in particular, but just a "general" general store. He gently tugs at his shoulder strap holding his hammer. (If the guards stopped him at the gate or something like that, then that last sentence was him looking past the guards anxiously)
 
The God nodded his head, and suddenly there was no longer a door, only a blank wall at the end of the short hall. Corvalles crossed his arms and glared down evilly at the three before him, a scowl upon his lips. The fireplace once again began to flare up, the flames dancing wildly and changing colors.


Jasper began to sweat visibly, and glanced toward the God. He widened his eyes and tried to signal with his expressions alone. "Really? You guys just saw a man shot dead, a God come in through the fireplace, and you still want to talk about why I brought you here? This is ridiculous." He took another sips from the crystal glass and sighed.


--


There were no gaurds at the road that entered town, but they did seem to be littered about the town. If Viknus would walk a little bit further into town on the highway, the only way to enter town, just past the road that lead through the Old Town, he would find a large trade goods sop, with the lanterns still burning in the windows.


(No man, unless I specify a time skip often times this role play is a little slow paced.)
 
"That was a god? Anyways, I'm sure some of us are feeling a bit... Spooked." said Neto. "And my butt is starting to curve in with this chair. Can we just get a move on with it already?" Neto wasn't really feeling spooked, but he was sure some part of him was. He sighed, and sat back down in the chair, eying the alcohol. Maybe just a sip would be fine... He reached over, and sipped a little bit. "Wow, this is good." said Neto, taking another sip. Before he knew it, he drained the glass.
 
Viknus finds the shop and enters, not entirely aware that he had his weapon on him, or whether or not it mattered. He looks around for a shop keep, scratching his weapon strap as he walks toward the shop keep. "Crafts of metal, you purchase?" His voice was much scruffier than he remember it being, and his thought to this: I need to find a tavern after this...
 
Jasper sat down his own glass of bourbon and sighed, running a hand through his sparkling hair. "Well, honestly, it is an odd job. You have to--"


He was interrupted by the menacing god next to him, who waved his hand and made the mayor's voice stop working. The god spoke, his voice was deep and booming, filling the very depths of the heart with a shiver. "Never mind. I want to know why mere mortals do not tremble in my wake!"
