"Well, in case you were wondering, my name is Naara. Pleasure to meet you, eheh..." Naara smiled. She chewed her lip again and looked around her. She hoped no more bad things would happen to her today. She'd had about enough of misfortune.
[Yay, top of the page!]

Naara smiled at them both. Even though she found them a little bit scary, she had to admit they seemed pretty nice now that they weren't holding her hostage. At least she wasn't a part of the group they were fighting. She glanced at Sara's flamer and shook her head slightly, trying not to imagine herself burnt to a crisp.

Zahth "Yeah no worries" Dominic nodded in response, he was looking across the way to a small mass of people scrambling away from a coffee shop.
He watched as a man came out really slow, holding a girl very close to him. She looked uncomfortable and kicked a rock toward them, it was a voluntary move he could tell. It was clear the man had a weapon pressed against her; living on the streets you learned fast who was carrying weapons. He patted the man's shoulder and moved past him, walking the opposite direction of the girl and her captor. He gave her a very subtle nod to the girl showing his understanding.
When he moved around the corner to a nearby building he lept straight up and caught the edge of the fire-escape latter. With the agility of a profession gymnast he landed on the first landing and moved up the steps to the top of the three story building. He lept across the gap between the next few building till he was directly above the slow moving pair. The young man wasn't sure why but he felt like he should be helping this girl. Picking his way down the side of the building, climbing head first like a spider he stopped less then ten feet above the man and woman.
"Oy-yo, you might want to run miss, keep your clothes nice and clean." He commented as he dropped to the ground below and beside them.
His right arm came up top grab the man by the hair, his left raised high and a long thin blade popped from his sleeve just below his wrist. The blade sunk deep into the gun-man's neck, killing him swiftly and quietly. Dominic eased him to the ground, closing the man's eyes out of respect for the dead. Standing straight he twitched his fingers and the blade slide back up into the spring-loaded sheath. Following the strange man, Ryuu saw the woman and man, the woman running away, while the man was sliced in the neck, killing him quickly. Dammit, he thought. My wallet returned by a murderer. Keeping his head low, Ryuu ran past the alley the man was in, walking towardthe ancient statue that was his link to the past. Was it like this in the middle ages? he thought, shaking his head in frustration. No, it probably wasn't like this, murderers, pickpockets, con-artists running around... There's just too many things to handle. I wish there was somewhere else... Leaning against the statue, he let out a deep sigh. Then, the statue slid. Letting out a cry of surprise, he turned to see the statue had moved a whole foot. And under that, he thought he saw something. What in the world? I thought this was cemented down... But maybe... Pushing against the statue, he found it moved even more, and there was soemthing underneath it; a hatch. lifting up the heavy old door, he fell in the hole underneath it, landing with a heavy thud, the hatch shutting behind him, leaving him in complete and total darkness.

There was little left of the forest where the bandits had fled into. Which even extinguished Roland's hope of retrieving any arrows. He was trembling in rage. The cowards! his mind screamed, those dirty bastards killed Rusher! Roland peeked around the corpse of his dead horse and found what he needed. A bindle that had been miraculously undamaged during the scuffle. Alain and Cuthbert had joined each other on the side of the road, watching their friend unroll the makeshift blanket. "Roland. You do not plan on doing anything..." Cuthbert tried, but felt at a loss for words. "You don't plan on doing something foolish, do ye?" Alain filled in, staring off in the distance at the two remaining horses. Cuthbert's lay in the grass, letting the wound up in the air. It was panting heavily. Probably won't last much longer. Alain thought with a certain sadness. Roland turned toward his ka-tet, staring at them with his icy bombadier's eyes. It made Cuthbert pale two shades, sending the hand of death tracing up his spine. Roland now had what was concealed in the bindle. Two six-shooters that were almost twice the normal size. The revolvers were set within two makeshift holsters. Roland's finger's danced along the sandalwood grips. He knew he would have to put them away when he found this person named Xerxes, but for now, he was the gunslinger his birthright claimed him to be. Alain turned his head from the horses and paled almost as white as Cuthbert had, yet somehow, he was not surprised in the least. "Thy father's big irons?" Alain asked, keeping as much uneasiness out of his voice as possible. Roland gave a solemn nod. Still maintaining his silence, he began to walk the dirt road once more, the pearl butts of the guns gleaming in the noon sunlight. Alain and Cuthbert had guns as well, and none to scoff at, for that matter. Yet they were by no means in league with Stephen Deschain's big irons. Roland should have felt honored to wear them. Instead he felt a festering hate boiling deep within him. He kept a placid face all the while, yet deep within him, he wished to re-meet the two in the gray suits. And pay them back ten-fold for what they did to Rusher. Still looking as if they had seen the ghost of King Arthur Eld, they began to follow their leader.

The youth crouched down again and helped the girl up, walking her away from were the scene. He kept whispering words to calm her, guiding her away from the scene and back down the street toward the coffee shop.
"You should go home or change your clothes at the very-least." Dominic commented quetly as they neared the shop, "Having blood splashed across your back is going to draw some attention; even in this neighbourhood."

As he hobbled around in the darkness, painfullly stubbing his toe on a rock, he found the floor became wet, and muddy. He could hardly breath, The tunnel becoming humid, and hot. He could feel what he thought as misquitoesbuzzing around him. The mud baecame water, his legs sinking knee-deep into it. sll of a sudden, it felt very open, unable to feel the walls around him any more, his foot falling into a pothole, knoking him over into the water. "Dammit all!" he said, getting out, mud clinging to his clothes. the water, after an hour of walking, was lowering, getting back to solid ground. All of a sudden, he ran into a wall. ...No, not a wall... he thought to himself. ...A door? feeling around, he did find a knob. Turning it, it opened up to... another tunel. Ryuu sighed, and comtinued hobbling through the blind tunnel.

Fumi gratefully took the stranger's hands as he helped her up, she grabbed the bag of money. His words did sooth her and she felt her heart slow. at the comment about changing she said, "You're right, I really must get out of this. But first I have to see Sam; I have to let him know I'm alright. But after I see him on't you please come ith me to my appartment; I have some questions for you." She meekly smiled up at him.

"Fine fine, not like I'm suppose to be anywhere." He said with a shrug and followed after the woman.
They walked into the coffee-shop and he caught the eye of the man behind the counter. The older man ducked down alittle in fear when he saw the newcomer and acompanied by a regular with blood soaking into the back of her clothes. Seeing this Dominic patted the air to calm the middle-aged man, guessing that this had been the man who had the guns pointed at him.
"I'm assuming the bag of money the young lady carries belongs to you." Dominic commented taking a seat on a stool on the edge of the bar.

Sam had a relieved and horrified exspression plastered on his face. "Yes, it dose. Fumi, I'm so glad you're ok!" Fumi gave him the money and he put it behind the counter. He then walked to her and said, "I'd give you a hug, but sanitation would have a fit." Fumi smiled, "I'll get that hug later; I told you I'd be fine. But all the credit goes to... I'm sorry I don't know your name." Sam smiled and vigously shook the man's hand, "Thank you so much sir. Fumi is a sweet girl, and my biggest coustomer. I'd hate for anything to happen to her." He release the man's hand, "I'm just so happy you're ok, Fumi. You're the daughter I never had." Fumi smiled and said, "Sam, you're the father I wish I had. I have to go clean up now, I'll be back later to make sure the Life Security guy came." She lightly placed a hand on the man's shoulder and nodded toards the door. as she walked to it her hand slipped off.

Naara laughed nervously. "Oh, it was nothing," she said, putting a hand on the back of her head. She glanced over at the gang's opponents, and gaped at what she saw. The two enormous guns caught her eye. "Er...Milo, you might want to take a look at that," she said, pointing a shaking finger at Roland and his guns. She closed her eyes and quickly opened them again in frustration. This is not my day! Dammit! She chewed her lip again, backing up to take cover in the trees. Maybe I can slip away while they are preoccupied with the fight... she thought for a moment, watching Sara and Milo closely.
