[ModNote: Continued from The Watcher's Challenge.] *Midnight looks back. Something wasn't right.There was something in the air...something she reconised...but couldn't remember. It was malice but a dark and evil kind...and then it was gone as if never there. With a sigh she trundles on towards the school.* [ModNote: The Alzan Assassin is seen again in Awaiting Orders.]

*He sees her worry plainly but has missed the true reason for it. His senses are dulled to the point of an untrained student of the 'arts'...*
Don't worry Lass, We'll find her. We'll get her back...
*He's torn between whether or not to admit that he has no idea how to do such a thing. It's like trying to walk through thick smoke...*
*The Atlanteans blade has done 'something' to him. It's like Coriolis has been removed from the link given to him as a birthright.*
[Thinking] Damn that fishman and his folly! What has he done to me?!?

[ModNote: Continued from Open Shop.] *Leytan and Walter where not that far behind the 2 Watchers as they made there way to the school gates.* *Leytan was following the blood tail left by the wounded Midnight.* "We'll soon have them." *He thought to himself.* *Janis and Midnight where still a good mile off the School gates and Leytan and Walter where catching up fast.*

* Following more closely than Leytan and Walter, unseen by either them or their mutual quarry, was Sylvester Hands. *

*The Ringmaster is also heading to the Boarding School, however he knows the place well and has taken a shortcut, he arrives before anyone and enters. He heads to the dorms and retrieves his all purpose clothing. He descends and leaves again, all before anyone arrives on thse scene. He is not aware of his impeccable timing but if he was he would no doubt find it hilarious. With his cloth in hand he decides to go and wait for the delivery of the additional ingredient for his potion, when he has that he can tell the messenger to send a message to his contacts. With this in mind he goes off to find supplies and hopefully lodgings.*

(occ: What we playing here follow my leader? *Midnight and Janis move on both lost in their own thoughts. Midnight worrying about little Mog...her loss of the bout and her injuries. Then all of a sudden she goes dizzy and has to sit at the roadside. She must of took more than first appeared...her head begins to pound again.* I need to stay still for awhile.... *With that Midnight lies down to rest. Her jewel begins to glow a sapphire blue and then a soft orange light appears around her.*

*Lying in a soft bed would be a better prospect than sitting here on the gravel-drive of the old Boardng School but dragging her bodily almog the ground is likely to cause 'offence'...* *The glow from her pendant is disconcerting because he had no warning that it was going to happen. His own remains inert...* what the.....! *His ears are still sharp however, despite they're lack of enhancements. Someone [OOC: Sly in this case ] has been sloppy in their tracking technique...* I'll be back in a moment Rhiannon, you ok by yourself?

How many times do I have to tell you?? The name is Midnight...
*She says the last bit through clenched teeth as she deals with her injuries.*
I'll be fine.

*Sigh* So be it... *He turns and walks away from her to investigate the sound. The constant contention of her name is becoming frustrating, has she forgotten so much these last few years?* *An intolerable but unmistakeable scent fills the air as he approaches a small group of bushes about a hundred yards further up the curving road.... It could only be the 'Honourable' leader of the Guild of Thieves and Beggars........* SLY!!!!!!! *The staff is brought to bear as he approaches the suspected hiding place...*

*Walter notices Coriolis leave the girl on her own and has no doubt Leytan, with superior skills, has also seen him. Walter indicates to Leytan the perfect time.*
"After you get her we'll take her to the Wolf's Howl, the investiagation there is over and it's all closed up, no one will dare approach there for fear of vengeful ghosts. Good luck Leytan, old boy."
*Walter watches the path to the boarding school in case anyone else comes to try and interfere.*

*Minutes pass by and the orange glow disappears and the jewel fades back to it's normal colour. She sits up slowly. Not looking any the better for the treatment but then she only dealt with the internal injuries. The external injuries would heal soon enough and needed no aid.*
*A second later she heard a almost silent noise of branch being broken when stepped on.....but before she can move.*

*Leytan appears from the bushes, realising she has heard him he moves faster and unsheaths his dagger as he approches her. Wanting to put fear into her moving at him he brings the dagger to her at fast speed and counts the time mentally til he stops the dagger just inches from her....*

* Hands may be stupid, but he has wit enough to react to that bellow, so he has time, as Coriolis begins the long swing of his staff, to leap from the bush, scratching himself more than a little on the branches but avoiding a distinctly worse injury. He launches himself at Coriolis's legs, knocking him to the ground, grabs his staff and whacks him hard on the head, with the obvious objective of rendering him unconscious. *

*Midnight's instincts kick in and with speed brings her dagger up to meet Leytan's with a clash of dagger's and a ring of steel meeting steel sounding in the air. For a very brief moment Leytan looks surprised....not many people had managed to defend themselves so quickly.*
Midnight: You again!!!
*With a sinister smile Leyton looks at her.*
Leytan: Yes ..Midnight.
*Midnight looks surprised at him knowing her name.*
Midnight: What happened when I came here? I got a photo put in at the bad guys office...

*a gentle sneer crosses his lips at the remark*
"As I do not belive in the exsistance of either good or evil Midnight, I'm hardly likely to be insulted by that remark. I do appolagise for this my dear it is a purely buissnes matter. I also appolagise for what is about to happan, but you have left me little alternitive."
*Leytan shifts his weight onto a different part of her upwardly held dagger. Pushing the blade over the top of her hand and out of her immediate grip. His left hand immediately grabs for her throat, curling around the back of neck and causing speckles of frost to form on soft skin.
*The intended effect is almost imediate.*
