A Strange Freind.

[Skarkill]

[ModNote: Continued from Room 2.]

*Skarkill enterd the part of the Inn reserved for the "commern folk" he glanced around. People acted in the usual manner, some ignord him, others looked at him with contempt, others in terror, some even got up and left. Skarkill didn't care he never had, he knew no one would start trouble with him they were all to scared of what the retrabution would be.*

<To himself>

"Were is she, she's just got to be here."

*He continued toscan the crowded Bar room.*

"The usual Skarkill?" The pub landlord called out.

"No Thanks Dal." Replied Skarkill "Actualy I'm Looking for someone."

*The air got tence, people stoped what they were doing to look. When Skarkill was looking for you it could only be trouble.*

"Now Skarkill." *Dal started trying to make his voice sound Authorityran.* "You Know perfectly well that you are not to "Arrest" anyone in my establishment."

"I'm not after some one Dal. I'm Looking for them. I need to talk to them."

"OH RIGHT" said Dal "Who Are You Looking for?"

"Kully."

*The air agine grew tence now three men had got up and moved unseen behind Skarkill.*

"Kully came in all right Skarkill and she was in a teribal state, Mumbaling something about a bloke assaluting her and threating worse treatment." Dal replied.

"Yer an know you come in wanting to talk to her." said one of the men behind Skarkill. "Thats a cowincidence isn't it Goblain Master."

"What are you saying?" Skarkill rplied turning to face the men.

"I'm saying that you were the one who beat the poor elf maidern up an now your wanting to intimidate her so she don't report you."

"That rubish I was the one who found and helped her if not for me she would have been dead." Skarkill protested.

"HA A LIKELY STORY. COME ON LADS LETS TEACH HIM TO RESPECT WOMEN." (Kully only hears this part.)

*Befor Skarkill can react he is knocked to the floor and beatern by the Three men with other coustomers joining in.*


*Kully has been sitting in a enclove nursing a drink. She hasen't seen Skarkill enter or heard the conversation but she dose hear the men yell and the start of the fight.*

*She pays it no heed untill she hears*

"Arrrgh NO I'm tellin the truth I never touched Kully. I helped her. Oh god somebody help me."

"Yer right Goblain Master."

"I Says we take him out side and hang him from the nerest tree."

*Kully looks out of the encloved to see Skarkill been held in a chair. There are welts appering on his fore head were he has been beatern.*

<One man Says>

"This is what happerns Skarkill when you beat up inocents like Kully and Now your going to hang for it."

*Kully springs up and rushes over.*

[ladymorgan]

*Upstairs in the reserved part of the room then Lady Morgan's rest has been disturbed by sounds of a scuffle in the public bar downstairs. She enters in disguise and sees her client Skarkill being beaten.*

Lady Morgan: *Throwing off the disguise* now then why do you beat this goblin master? He may be a foul creature but has he done anything to cause citizens to bring justice into their own hands?

[Kully]

*Clenches her fists and screams*

Leave him alone! He's telling the truth!

*As her words fall upon the ears of everyone in the pub, there is a crashing and grinding sound of splitting wood, and the floorboards crack apart as if a outside had pulled a heavy anchor through the pub, but there is nobody standing at the start of the crack except Kully. She claps a hand over her mouth and turns and runs out of the pub.*

*When someone goes outside to search for her, she is gone - no trace whatsoever*

[Skarkill]

*Skarkill lifts him self out of the chair and limps towards the door.*

"Sorry about this Skarkill." Dal says helping him to stand.

*Skarkill just glares at him and pushes him away. He walks through the door, Pauesing only to turn around and punch his original attaker in the face.*

"You guys orter leran not to judge a book by its cover."

*Skarkill stumbles out into the street and limps off down the road.*

"Well thats blown it has'nt it?" he says to himself. "God only knows how I'll find Kully now.

*Suddernly Skarkill's Is aware of some one either following or directly behind him. He prepers to fight, But hold on the presensc isn't Human or hostile in feel.*

"It Can't be. " Skarkill says and turns round to see..

[Tzigane]

[OOC: ru planning on someone like me being there, or the ghost of your sister?]

[Skarkill]

(OOC Either my Sister or Kully.)

"Sinstar?"

*Skarkill is face to face with his sister. She looks at him with great sadness in her eyes.*

<Sinstar voice a gentle childlike voice>

"Brother, Why do you act so? Why do you forsake Kully now?."

<Skarkill>

"I'm a goblain master like it or not its who I am and always have been, It's not natural for me to help people."

*Shakes her head dissapointadly.*

"Skarkill you are more human then Goblain our mother was a human remeber only our father was pure Goblain Master. You have emotions and feelings in you, you just bottle them up."

"SO WHAT."

"Brother, You have been givern the chance to atone for your crimes, don't waste it."

"I failed to save my own sister, How can I help Kully?"

"Brother, You COULDN'T save me. But You Can Help Kully. Go to her."

"I don't know were she is."

"I will guied you follow me."

*She glides of down the street Skarkill follows, she stops beside a clump of bushes .*

"She is in there."

"Go to her and help."

"Will you come and help me I can't do this on my own."

"No dear brother, She can not see me."

"But..I...I can't....Sinstar wait."

*Sinstar has faded from site.*

*Skarkill walks over to the bushes and pulls them appart to see Kully hudled up looking terifeid.*

[Skarkill]

*Kully hasn't noticed Skarkill yet.*

<To Himself>

"Poor little Elf Maiden."

<Out Load>

"Kully? Kully its Skarkill, can I Talk to you?"

[Kully]

No! Just go away! Just leave me alone!

*Skarkill advances and she shrieks at him*

LEAVE ME ALONE!

*The roots of the bushes wrench themselves from the earth and form a barrier around Kully. Skarkill jumps back in surprise*

[Skarkill]

"JESUIT KULLY, THERES NO NEED FOR MAGIC. I'M UNARMED AND THE GOBLAINS ARE NO WERE ABOUT."

"Look I just want to help you, And you do need help from someone, even if its a goblain master."

"What you say."

*Againe he looks deep into Kullys eyes. Unlike normal however instead of the Goblin evil that usaly infest Skarkill's Eye there is a almost warm Humanity in it, it relax Kully a bit.*

[Kully]

Ok.

[ladymorgan]

*They are about to speak when Lady Morgan comes into the alley in her guise as 'Equaliser (assasins garb so you do NOT know who it is.)*
Equaliser: Well, well, well if it isnt my number one customer and the elf maiden. We sold you that Red Dragon Caller to use on her, did it not work?

*Skarkill looks nervous and Kully's eyes open wide with shock.*

Equaliser: If you aren't going to finish her off then I will. *Pulls out a sword which glows green in the dark alley.*

*Skarkill steps between her and Kully*

Skarkill: Ave the Red Dragon Caller back if you want it, but I aint got it Sly as. Now just beat it, Kully's with me understood?

Equaliser: Very well, I suppose you want your own wicked way with this elf maiden. Do not forget our deal, in 3 days the Archmage shall be a corpse.

*Before Skarkill can say anything else Equaliser leaps up onto a rooftop and disappears.*

Kully: *horrified look* You wanted me killed and you've set assasins on Rob too! *Kully slaps Skarkill and runs off down the alley*

[Kully]

[OOC: Woah! The boundaries are blurring - this is worrying. Emii is me. Kully is my character. The last thing I want is people thinking I'm her and she's me - then what would happen? Would I be fictional in their eyes, or would Kully be real?]

[Skarkill]

"KULLY, I SWEARE ON MY HONNOUR I WAS NOT RESOPNSABLIE FOR THE CONTRACT ON YOUR HEAD, I WAS MEARLY THE INSTRUMENT WHO WAS TO CARRY IT OUT. EDWARD DEAL PUT THE CONTRACT OUT, AND THE ASSASIN GUILD CAME TO ME, AND PAYED ME TO ARRANGE THE NESSERSERY DETAILS."

"AS FOR ROB I DON'T KNOW WHO IT WAS WHO WANTED HIM DEAD I GOT AN UNSIGHNED LETTER TELLING ME THAT IF I ARRANGED HIS DEATH I WOULD BE REWARDED I WAS GOING TO DO IT MYSELF, BUT THE ASSASINS PAID ME TO TURN THE CONTRACT OVER TO THEM."

*Kully is in tears at what she considers to be a betraly.*

<Kully>

"You were still involved though you still agreed, I don't care how much Human Blood is in you, Your still more Goblain then Human. Your Evil and always will be."

*Kully rounds a corner, Skarkill starts to walk sadly off, when sudernly he hears Kully scream. He runs round the corner.*

"WHO IS THAT. Kully asks. A girl no more then 25 is standing in frount of them, or at least the image of a girl for although she is there, she isn't.

"Sinstar." Skarkill replies. "My Sister, Or Late Sister would be more acurate."

<Sinstar>

"Kully, dearhart you need not fear my brother, for although he is a vile creatuer sometimes."

"Thanks a lot Sis nice to know you care."

"This time his hart is in the right place, He means you no harm, and he dose want to help, Tell him who your attaker was and he will help."

*She begins to fade.*

"Will I ever see you agine Sister?"

<To Skarkill>

"Yes But the next time you see me in this form will be on your dieing day. Take hart Brother we will meet agine in the pysical sence VERY SOON."

*She disapers.*

"I wish she wouldn't be so flameing mysterious about what she meens. She was always that way even when we were growing up, Sinstar the Decicver she was called because she could make the most outrages tale sound beliveable."

<To Kully>

"Well now are you preperd to tell me the name of your attaker?"

[Kully]

Well, if you check the coins that were left in the alleyway, you'll see toothmarks on the edges of every single one. Who do you know who is so money-hungry that he bites every single one of his coins?

[Skarkill]

" DEAL"

"THAT LOWLIFE."

"Right I'll see to him Kully, Don't you worry."

"Come on Lets go and have a little talk with Mr. Edward Deal shall we."

*Makes to leave but notices Kully is a little reluctant.*

" Don't worry Kully I'll make sure he dosen't hurt you. And By the time I'm through with him he won't touch you EVER AGINE."

*She is still hesitent.*

"Trust Me Kully, Just Trust Me."

*He kisses her tenderly on the lips.*

"Come on."

*He takes her by the hand and walks with her to the market. Kully is shocked and thinking to her self about what just happend.*
