*A loud ring filled the room then faded Catherine woke up with a start. Realising that someone had somehow got into the shop. Grabbing the nearest weapon to hand, which was a large dagger with a green handle and silver blade. Slowly approaching the stairs down to the shop she waits and listens.* [ModNote: Catherine was last seen here.]

*Catherine hears the jingle of coins and the slamming of the til. She begins to quietly walk down the stairs until she can see the strange burgler. The burgler is over weight, has scruffy blonde hair, though it is dirty and matted so it is hard to tell in the dim light. Slowly approaching she sees her has stubble on his left cheek...but then she steps on a loose floor board causing him to look up then she sees he has scars along the right side of his face.*
Good morning sir....most of my customers wait til the shop is open before coming in and all PAY for what they take....

*A while later Catherine is being comforted by one of the female members of the watch. After some questioning she gets asked if she wishes any to be alerted.*
I've only been here a few days..the only person I can think of is Count Marcus Wolfgang Brinkatore the 3rd.

[ModNote: Locksley was last seen, chronologically, at The Guardhouse.] *Sir Edmund also hears the report and is on his way to the shop when Hoss rushes past him. His curiosity piqued, he looks after the running man for a moment, noting his direction and description, then he makes his way to Catherine's shop. Catherine is being seen to by an officer, but Sir Edmund sweeps them aside. Seeing that she is partly undressed, he hands her his cloak* For the sake of propriety Miss Barter. It appears that you have been most fortunate, the watch was alerted by one of your neighbours. Would you wish to make a report. I assure you that the criminal will be apprehended if you furnish me with a description. *Notes the look on her face* Miss Barter, did this man injure you? Do you require medical assistance?

*Catherine slowly wraps the cloak around her. At the sound of Mrcus's voice she smiles slightly and nods. Then turning her attention to Sir Locksley ooking low and with tears in her eyes she goes on to explain the brief fight and then the assault and what would of happened if the Watch hadn't of turned up when they did.*
Yes I wish to make a report but right now I want to be alone for a while. I'll come and see you tomorrow Sir Locksley.
