"Damn I love this job," Argoth murmured as he watched the officials die. He listened to Torak and turned his head to face Marisa, "Shall we, love?" Marisa smiled at her date and nodded and the two of them stood up from their table. Argoth and Marisa inconspicuously made their way over to the exit and waited for the others outside.

Blade and Maria made their way to another exit. There were almost clear when a guard stopped them.
"I need to ask you two a few questions." He said.
Blade turned to the guard, his face full of worry and fear, and all composure gone. "Aw, come on, man. People are dyin' here, aren't you worried about bein' next?" Blade started sweating.
"Now calm down, sir, I-"
"Two senators just fell over and died man. All I wanted was to take my girlfriend out for some dancing and some drinking, and two guys die right in front of us." Blade took a big, raspy breath, and covered his face with his hands. "I don't deal with death well, man. My brother was a soldier, and when I lost him, I just- I gotta get outta here."
"Sir, please-"
"How dare you.?" Maria asked, exasperated. "My lover is having a mental breakdown, and you wanted him hauled in for questioning?" She grabbed Blade's shoulders.
"You- you're right, clearly you don't know anything, you can go."
"Thank you." Maria said, she turned Blade around, and walked him out of the castle. When they reached a safe distance, they dropped the act.
"Nice work." Maria said.
"I get by." Blade replied with a smile.

Torak and Christina calmly made their way to the other exit and had no trouble with any guards as they fled the scene.
Torak looked around and said "We'd best find another way out....they will be guarding the entrance by now. I know of a secret way out fo here."
Christina nodded and held onto Torak's hand tightly.

Argoth and Marisa wandered into an alley on the side of the building. The two of them stood there holding each others hands while they waited. "They better show up soon," he murmured, "Shit's about to hit the fan." Marisa looked up at Argoth with hungry eyes and a beautiful smile, "Well, in the meantime.. and before she finished Argoth was already there. He pressed his lips against hers and the two of them stood in the alley for a good while passionately kissing one another. When they finally broke away Argoth said with a smile on his face, "It's been a long time since we did that, almost forgot what it was like." Marisa rested her head upon her date's chest and quietly whispered, "Thanks for taking me with you again Argoth, I had a swell time." He kissed her on the top of the head and wrapped his arms around her and pulling her in closer. "Anytime, love, he responded. The two of them stood there in the alleyway just as they were while they awaited Torak and Blade's arrival.

"Come on, we need to get out of here, especially you." Lien murmured, leading Oarashi away to the palace garden. Grabbing him quickly, Oarashi yanked Lien back behind a corridor pillar, waiting out a trio of Guards rushing by them, corralling the confused guests that were in the gardens previously. Once clear, Oarashi nodded to Lien, allowing him to lead him deep into the shrub maze.
Being as silent as possible, the two dragon boys carefully picked out their path through the high-walled maze. The light from the castle and the moonlight where the only source of light to help the two not trip over anything, until finally Lien found the outer wall. Thick ivy grew on the once stone wall, so after grabbing a handful of vegetation and giving it a few good yanks, Lien assured himself that it was sturdy enough to climb up on.
Quickly they both clambered on to the allure and ducked simultaneously behind a parapet, avoiding the gaze of a guard as he quickly glance over the outer wall's walkway, then disappear back inside the castle. Looking down at the wide moat on the other side of the wall, Oarashi frowned, knowing that if they both jumped in right now, the splash would attract the guards patrolling the castle. So with his water spell, Oarashi summoned a geyser of water out of the moat, urging Lien to step on the pillar of water.
After a bit of urging, the dragon prince finally stepped onto the geyser, feeling like the water was solid underneath them. Then Oarashi lowered the geyser with him and Lien down to bank level and leapt to the grassy bank of Hyrule town, quickly rushing away from the castle as fast as they could. But passing by an alleyway. Lien stopped and looked hard in that shadows. Oarashi had taken a few good strides ahead when he realized that Lien wasn't running with him, stopping and turned around to look at him. "Lien, come on what are you doing there?"
Lien walked into the alleyway, getting a sigh from Oarashi as he followed behind and peeked in. "Argoth. . . waiting for your . . . guests?"

Argoth looked over at Lien and smiled, "Yeah, Torak likes to be late, and I dont know what the hell Blade is up to. Here, wait with us," Argoth suggested.

Blade walked into the alleyway shortly after Lien arrived.
"I see our new friends are here." Blade noted. "What do you know?" Blade asked.

Oarashi just watched Blade, shrugging as he had a smile cross his face. "I do hope you were not addressing me, I have no idea whatever you are talking about."
"So long as I do not get into trouble I'll be fine just lingering here with you I suppose." Lien just simplely dismissed Blade's entrance as he tilted his head to the side, his eyes closed to think. "I know your job is to protect Hyrule inside-out, but I never understood why you must do so in the clear sight of pratically every noble in the kingdom. One of these days it's going to catch up to one of you after all."

"Because that contract was requested by the King himself." Torak said, appearing from the shadows with Christina.

"Indeed, if our remote location does not save us from the noble's prying eyes, then the king will save us from the rope." Blade added.

"Alright then if you suppose, so where are you heading off to? Your base of operations I suppose?" Lien inquired, tilting his head, but clearly he still looked a bit unsure about Blade's assuranace, but he and Oarashi weren't going to stick around anyways.

"That is where we will be headed...yes...but-"Torak stopped in mid-sentence. His hand shot up and he nodded up towards the rooftops...to non verbally say that someone was spying on them. Something shuffled in the darkness and a discarded Hylian Shield fell to the cobblestones as a cat scurried past it.

In a flash, Oarashi twirled blindingly fash as he blasted an ice spell at the rooftop. Even if he had missed, there was no way the spy could escape without the risk being seen in an attempt to find some footing on the roof tile. The ice spell quickly expanded over the roof tile in a smooth, polished slippery trap and glowed eeriely in the moonlight and magic.

"Two nobles just died, and you're drawing attention to us like that?" Blade asked. "Whoever's following us made a mistake by dropping that shield. Because I can track its owner by scent." Blade walked over and picked up the shield. "And after I distance myself from this area, that's exactly what I'm going to do." Blade walked away with Maria.
"Calm down, Blade, not everyone thinks the way we do." She said.
"I know, which is why you probably saw this coming." Blade stopped and turned to her. "I need you to stay in Hyrule."
"I did see this coming." She admitted. "I agree with you, too. The only one who comes close to us is Torak. I'll stay, I just need to make the arrangements with my father."
"Thanks, Sen." Blade said softly.
"It's Maria until tomorrow." She turned and continued walking. Blade followed a few steps behind, taking in the scent on the shield. When he had it, he gave it to a beggar. The two started to make their way back to the hideout.
[exit Maria and Blade]

The wind had picked up, giving off a chilly air and Christina huddled closer to Torak to keep the heat.
"Tread lightly, Lien...there are sure to be more wandering eyes watching..." Torak quickly put Christina behind him and pulled out his blade.
A dark figure leapt from the roofs where Oarashi sent the ice and landed infront of Torak. The figures blades shot out and he leapt at Torak who barely blocked it, Christina backed up a bit as the fight got more intense.
