Royal Shadow

[Hellfire]

Darren looks over at her, noticing her for the first time. "For the most part." He mumbled. He yawned, stretching out his arms. "I am not a morning person." He finds a small bag and a box. He pours the bag into the box. He grabs a cup and after a few moments he pours out the contents of the box into his cup.

 

[RavenMist]

She nods slowly, "Mornings aren't too bad," she says softly, smiling at him. She felt slightly better, the sleep she had got was mostly pleasant.

 

[Hellfire]

Darren drank deeply, sighing contentedly. "It takes me awhile to wake up." He confesed, taking another drink from his cup. He nodded at Shadow. "I bet you he will is probably already awake, a thief like him has something close to a sixth sense."

 

[RavenMist]

Isabella laughs softly, "I dunno about that. I far enough from him when it came to running away from him. He soon caught up mind." She says with a soft chuckles.

 

[Hellfire]

Darren smiles and shrugs. "Just giving in to old legends I guess." Shadow stirred in his chair.


"I smell coffee." He said, moving towards Darren. He passed him and fixed himself a cup. "Nothing better in the world." Shadow said before drinking.

 

[RavenMist]

She scrunches her nose, "I don't like coffee." She points out, crossing her arms, "Nothinh pleasant about it." She adds, "It's just bitter."

 

[Hellfire]

"that is the point." Shadow says, taking another sip. "since it is bitter it wakes you up." Darren nods his head in agreement. Nathan wanders into the room. he notices Shadow and Darren.


"do you have anything worth drinking around here?" he asks as he walks towards them.


"coffee and water, that is about it." Shadow responds, pointing to a small fridge.

 

[RavenMist]

Isabella looks at Nathan, "You like coffee too? Am I the odd goose?" She asks with a laugh, getting a cup of water and sipping it. She looks between them, "I need to travel back to the house. Make sure my staff are okay." She says.

 

[Hellfire]

Nathan grabs a water. "I don't like it, but I drink it ever so often." he says before drinking from the water.


Shadow nods his head. "I imagine they would have left the building. The guild might have some guards though, should be fun." Shadow says before finishing his coffee.

 

[RavenMist]

She nods looking at her hand. She unwraps the bandage and flexes her fingers. They were stiff but not nearly as painful. She grins, "I'll have to be careful, but it seems to be pretty much healed, no pain really." She murmurs, looking at Nathan, "Are you in or out? If I'm offering you job?" She says suddenly, "You know more than any of us about running the region. Of course, it's not quite what you would've wanted but it's as close as you're getting to power." She says.

 

[Hellfire]

Nathan looks at her in surprise. he recovers "A job?" he asks with a small laugh. "I would probably do that, seeing as I don't really have anything else I can do in the future."

 

[RavenMist]

She nods slowly, "We do things my way though, you aren't a Royal. Not if you're working for me, you can be second in command, next in line to power." She states, "Don't even think about plotting my death, either. I need to trust you, and right now, I trust none of you." She says, turning away, "Nathan, you get one shot at helping me. Or I'll personally see to your death." She warns, her voice harsh. Though she knew she could never kill anyone.

 

[Hellfire]

"kill you?" Nathan snorts. "Just because I am not the best person doesn't mean I just go out killing people close to me to gain power." he was a little hurt by her statement. "I'll play by your rules, if that is what you really want."

 

[RavenMist]

"I'm not like my father. I don't intend even the worst people to die, metophorically though, I'll destroy you if you betray my trust." She murmurs, "I've had enough people do that now,"

 

[Hellfire]

Nathan nods his head. "Sounds fair to me." he said looking around at them. "I am assuming we will take the tunnel we went through yesterday." he commented aloud.

 

[RavenMist]

"No, we go through the slums. The house is probably covered in traps and the guilds guards." She says suddenly, "We approach from the front, confidently. They won't expect such a sudden confrontation." She adds.

 

[Hellfire]

"Sounds good to me." Darren says with a smile.


"I can scout ahead to disarm traps and give the locations of guards." Shadow offers. "I may even be able to take down a few of them, and get them out of the way."

 

[RavenMist]

Isabella nods, "Nathan, you're with me. I know you're plenty capable of fighting as well." She states, "We'll stick behind. We're at a slight disadvantage, Shadow and Darren have been doing his longer than I care to imagine. These guilds are clever." She says.

 

[Hellfire]

Nathan nodded. "I can use the bike to scout from the air, Darren you have the ground." Shadow said, turning to Darren. He handed him a small circular device. Darren put the device in his ear. "We can keep in contact through these." Shadow held up a handful of the devices. "Only you can hear the rest of us, and this baby will even pick up a quiet whisper when you are trying to talk to someone else." He offered the others the devices.

 

[RavenMist]

She nods and takes the ear piece, and Nathan takes one hesitantly, "We'll move forward slowly, try to move inside without being noticed." She says to Nathan, "Stick close."

 

[Hellfire]

Nathan hesitates before placing the device in his ear. He nods to Isabella. "Let's go." Shadow says as he moves towards the garage.

 

[RavenMist]

Isabella nods at Shadow, moving toward the exit, genturing for Nathan, "You ready? Prepare yourself. The slums isn't a best place right now, Nevermind two guilds being close."

 

[Hellfire]

Nathan frowned. "I guess." he said with a shrug as he followed Isabella. Shadow disappeared into the garage. Darren followed Isabella and Nathan

 

[RavenMist]

Isabella opens the door, stepping out into the open. She flexes her hands and sticks to the edges of the path toward the city. She frowns, it seemed pretty empty and she could only guess how far away they were.

 

[Hellfire]

"I'll scout ahead from hear." Darren said as they got closer to the city. "Contact me if u need me." He tapped his ear before moving ahead of them. Nathan watched him go.


"It is to quiet." He whispered, looking aorund them.
