It amused him how the man reacted, showing restraint to not kill him instantly, in that act, he had gained a large amount of respect for him.
"excuse the rudeness, i wanted to see how you would react," he whispered, bowing elegantly.
He knew he looked foolish, but he did not care, he knew he was throwing the angry man off guard, and hopefully this would not end in a blood bath.
"I am raven blackwater," he said, showing his drop, a large one on his chest

Skailer glared at him, and he shifted his hand off the hilt of his sword, letting it fall to his side.
"Skailer McKaiver..." His voice was thick with irritation, and he blinked slowly. "Why the hell are you bowing?" As his eyes touched the tear drop, he raised his eyebrows. Curiosity burned his tongue, and he had to ask. "What... are you?"
He gestured towards his back, and sighed, letting a slight flame burst into life in the palm of his hand. Twirling his fingers in it, he glanced back towards the tree, shrugging. "Not that it really matters..."
Ooc:// WOOO!!! CRAPPY AND SHORT!!!!

He smiled, letting the darkness play across his face,
"I am the dark heir," he said, "we normally do not live past our teen years"
He examined the man, noticing the slight fire, "You are the fire heir, i see," he comments, "well met"

Zell knew her cover had been blown, she knew she was going to be found, she didn't necessarily care at the moment, though. He mind was too preoccupied with the fire dancing in Skailer's hand. "You are the fire heir," the other one, Raven, commented. "Well met." Zell was even more scared than she was before, she didn't know there were more of them. She thought she was some freak, destined to live on the outside. Well, she didn't feel so alone now. She slitted her eyes, and got closer to the two men, knowing she was now in full view. "Why the hell are you here, then?" Zell asked, voice as thick as the poison in her pocket.

Raven turned his dark eyes to the girl walking into the view, his eyes containing a new anger,
"You don't get to be angry, you blew our cover with the gate, and froze when you heard people coming. We got lucky, ameture mistakes like that will get us all killed, and throw away a years worth of work on my part!" he whispered angrily, but the rage in his eyes died, to be replaced with a cold emotion, almost a non-emotion, "I have invested years of my life into finding this place, I saved your ass once, but it was almost a mistake, don't make me do it again."
He leaned his back against the wall, and folded his arms, and blew out a breath, "I am gonna darken this place, it's the full moon, getting set up on a watch tower is the light heir, she's going to redirect a lot of the light shining on us now, and im going to darken the shadows in the minds of others, making them think its pitch black, i can do this on a large scale for five minutes. there is a small army in here, 200 men, can you guys disable that many people?" He met each of their eyes in turn, his eyes serious, his face grim, "and after that, we can talk about payment," he added.

Zell sighed. She didn't come her to fight, she hated it, she came here to pick up a package, then bring it to her aunt, who live about two and a half hours away. She was already off schedule, for she was supposed to be to her aunt's house before three am. It had to be about one by now. But this man was looking at her with such a piercing look, she had to go against her nature and help him fight. She felt bad, almost blowing his cover. She felt the need to help him. He wanted payment, though; she had nothing to give him. "I, um, can help. But I don't actually have a weapon. I wouldn't be much of a help, I would just get in the way. I should just leave." Zell suggested, trying to get out of this so she could leave. She rubbed her forefinger and thumb together at her side.

He raised a single eye brow, almost as if he could sense her thoughts, "I'm sure we can find a job for you, and you will be payed quite well," he said, his eyes softening at the sight of his fear, "and if you are willing to stick with me afterwards, I will make sure your loved ones are well cared for."
He knew tempting her wasn't going to be good for his conscience, but if she left now, she would be an unknown again, he wanted her where he could see her.
He kept these thoughts hidden from the other two, knowing that they would not be pleased if they knew he was resorting to trickery.
He smiled innocently, trying to show he was being sincere in his offer, which he was, he would make sure that, if she stayed, her loved ones would be given a constant flow of money and the best health care.
"I belong to an organization of people like you and me, we have the wood heir's weapon in storage, waiting to be found," he turned to the fire heir, "and we can grant you a fund to do anything you chose with, research, missions, whatever." He smiled again, knowing they were going to take the carrot he was offering them.

Skailer watched the two with furrowed eyebrows, and shoved his hands into his pockets.
What was the point of asking a complete stranger for assistance? It's not like two extra people would make a big difference. He scoffed, and turned away from them. "200 men is easy. But that's not why I came. In fact, I've just missed my target. Why would I help you?"
A sudden thought made Skailer spike with anger. "And don't you go yelling at her for 'almost ruining your plans'. YOU were the one who made that enourmous racket, sending the shingles flying when you jumped off the roof. You're the amateur. How did you save her ass?! I don't need your funds. I don't need anything but necessities anyway, and those are already covered. Extra money will just weigh me down. It's not like I have a set place that I'm staying or anything."
He glared at Raven, and turned to look at the dark-haired girl. "What's your name?" His voice had gone several levels gentler, and he gave her a crooked smile.

Raven laughed at the outburst, amused by the enormous temper that the fire heir let show, "That racket was what saved our asses, thank you very much," he snorted, "the gate creeking open caught a lot of attention, and they would have searched around here if not for that, foolish boy, those drunks were a lucky coincidence, couldn't you hear the footsteps of the guards coming towards us?" He looked at the angry man, pointedly, "When they heard those hit the ground, they went to investigate the roof, instead."
He gestured at the scared girl with his chin, "she had frozen stiff, and was going to be seen, and the alarm would go off."
Uncrossing his arms Raven waved his hand, engulfing the fire in a bubble of darkness, "and that is going to give us away at this point."
He paused, knowing he had pushed the man too far with the last big, "your mark is gonna be a mile down the road from here for the next hour, i can help you tag him if you would like." He gave a sincere smile, trying to repair a bridge that was burning quickly.

Ooc:// LMAO!!!! For some reason this made me laugh really hard! Maybe it's because I can picture Skailer's expression >.< He'd be shaking with rage... XD
Bic:// Skailer's expression was furious immediately, and he dropped the hand previously holding the flame to his side. He glared at Raven with loathing. "No thanks." he growled, and waved it off, dropping the subject. "I don't need your help." He literally vibrated with anger, and it came off him in scorching waves.
A small smirk crossed his face. "Are you really so desperate that you're asking strangers for assistance? Like I said, I wouldn't know if I'm your friend or foe at this point."

Raven smiled at the man, again amused with how angry he was, "you are a liability, I don't NEED your help, but i would rather get it than have to kill you. I can't risk you blowing my work." Raven paused, and in a friendly voice, said "it doesn't matter whether you are friend or foe, if you get in my way, i will kill you quicker than you can light a fire."
He stepped into the darkest part of the shadow, and disappeared, when he next spoke, it was as if he was everywhere in the shadow they stood in, "do you think you can catch, much less kill a shadow in the night?" he whispered.

Zell gasped. When the man, Raven, had disappeared into the shadows, she felt the hairs on her arms stand on end. His voice was everywhere, and this frightened her even more. He has asked her a question, what was it? Oh yes, her name. But her voice was too shut in to say something. She had watched them fight for the interest's sake of dominance, and that made her want to just flee now. She looked over to the other man, he was furious. Zell didn't want these two to result in a fight, and wanted to calm them done, even if she had no idea how to. So, doing the first thing that came to mind, she thrust out her hand and said, "Hi, my name's Zell Torcelli, nice to meet you!", and put on a crooked smile.

Raven appeared out of the dark, standing on the other hand of the shadow,
"Hello, zell," he smiled at her gently, "I am raven." He bowed to her elegantly, before turning to the fire heir
"Alright hothead, i've had my fun, but now, for seriously, ill tell you what, if you help me, i will let you burn this entire place to the ground, sound good?" he offered

This made Zell quite happy, they were getting along a bit better, she hoped. She sighed. At least Raven was trying to make an agreement, it was just up to the other, now. But, if he burns the place down, I won't get the package, she thought Her eyes widened. She had to get out of here and find that package. So, before he answered, Zell ran from her current spot and fled out the gate.

Skailer's face changed ever-so-slightly, and his muscle twitched by the edge of his mouth. He crossed his arms over his chest, turning away slightly. "Why would I want to burn it down? I've got nothing against it." But his argument had lost its vigor, and he was just arguing for the sake of arguing. The excitement was obvious in his voice.
He sighed, and his proud expression dropped. "Fine-" He stopped short as Zell fled, disappearing into the darkness. He muttered a string of curses. "Great," Skailer snarled, grinding his teeth together in anger. "Now she's gone. Wonderful. Now I can't burn the damn place till she gets out!!!" He made a face, a grimace mixed with something else. "She just is out to get herself killed isn't she?!"
