"Well that's good. I guess this means the police, if there are any searching, hasn't reached this area yet," said Rooi. "So anyway, what's the nearest city besides Cypress?" she asked.
With the rope cut loose, the wingless dragon started to walk away. "So, I see that you're an upperclass person like me. I bet we'll both get along good," said Kathia before she suddenly notice the weightlessness of the lease she was holding. Curious, she looked to the lease and saw that it had been cut. "What the?!" she cried out in shock. Then she whipped her head around to look for her escaped slave and saw him trying to get away. "Stop right there, you filthy slave! You think you can get away just like that? Well you've got another thing coming!" she yelled at him. Then she took out her remote device thing and pressed the button on it. The collar around the slave's neck released a voltage of electricity to shock the dragon. The dragon let out a cry of pain before he dropped to the ground. "Now get back over here before I shock you again," Kathia ordered him. Reluctantly, the dragon slave walked back over to Kathia, who tied the severed lease together into a knot. She did this as she said to Aaron, "I don't know how and why that dumb animal tried to run off like that."

Drake and Ronan both shrugged. "No idea. I only know of the deserts of the south." Ronan said. "Perhaps if we know the direction to one, we can fly there with ease." Drake added. Ronan grabbed his weapons and started to sharpen them using a rock nearby.
The stranger glared when he glanced back seeing the dragon was still bound but electronically. He continued to walk away seeing he couldn't free the poor creature this time.

Sam looked to the person walking away. She tapped her fingers against the side of her drink in thought before looking at Vox. "Nuh uh" Nami scolded, knowing what was going through her head. "Just keep walking to that library, sis" Nami dulled her eyes. "If you get caught, I'm not helping" she whispered grouchily before turning on her heels and walking. Sam grabbed Vox and followed into a thicker group in the walking crowd. She walked along casually on the outside and nudged Vox when they got closer. Vox was careful to come at an angle not directly in Kathia's sight. He slipped a silent current of electricity from his mouth to the collar and kept walking with Sam. Though the shock initially would hurt, he intended to overall surge the collar.

"Life without dragons would likely be better. I am sure with some intuitive thinking we can find something to fill the void they would leave behind." Aaron answered Kathia's question. When she introduced herself he thought quietly for a moment. Rittevon...sounds familiar He shook Kathia's hand warmly. "It is a pleasure to meet you Miss Rittevon. Oh and yes I am from an upper class family. Now that you mention it I guess my family would not be so well off without dragons. My parents are slave traders after all." Aaron looked down at about the same time as Kathia to see the cut leash and the dragon slave slinking away. Kathia seemed pretty peeved about this and pulled out the remote for a shock collar and activated the dragon's collar before ordering it back. "Hmm..." He hummed to himself as he looked around the crowd to see if he could spot anyone suspicious. "I suppose it is possible that he chewed through it but I doubt that. Look at how clean the cut is if he had chewed it the rope would be an utter mess. I think we have a wannabe thief on our hands." Aaron said to Kathia still looking about for suspects.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
((I presume he is ducking weaving and hiding and such and is playing off the "I belong here" thing whenever he get's spotted))
Kat's cage was dragged out of the tent and back into a small holding area with several other dragons. Those present didn't really notice Fayte that much, they were always getting new attractions, and although some wondered why he was without an escort none bothered to ask figuring it was a decision made by someone higher than they were. Kat stretched in her cage but stopped when she heard footsteps. "I hope you remembered pants Balgus, I am a lady after all." She said not bothering to turn around to see that it was actually Fayte.

Sora's eyes slowly fluttered open as she took in the sunlight around her. She nudged Harumi to wake her up. Harumi looked around in a frightened fashion, but then relaxed upon remembering the night before. She looked to Sora who had walked over to the others. "Good morning," Sora said happily to everyone. Harumi walked up behind Sora and yawned. "So what are we doing today?" She asked.

Fayt cocked an eyebrow at her statement. Apparently she'd seen Albel's... episode. "Well I'm not sure if he's got pants on, but I don't wear pants" he commented, teasing that the comment was unintentionally targeted at him. Fayt crouched down by the cage, "You look tired" he added, looking her up and down. He did find it humorous that no one stopped him or asked questions about his being there.
((Lol, Aaron- looks around for suspects. Doesn't notice someone surge collar))
Sam sipped at her coffee and hopped on Vox. She heard Aaron's statement and nearly inhaled the coffee in silent laughter. Ah I love oblivious people.... she thought with a grin, facing the other way of course. Sam crossed the street and watched from a distance on Vox to see what happened now. Since city life was more or less boring, she fully took advantage of any excitement going on.

((Pretty much XD it seemed like more fun to let them get away with it than whipping out his sword and screaming gwah. Besides she an Vox are supposed to be some kind of epic thieving duo. Wouldn't make much sense if they got caught by someone who wasn't really looking for them. After all they don't seem to have any kind of knife or sword.))
When Kat heard the response she turned around to see who it was since it clearly wasn't Balgus. Before her stood a furry...thing. "You've got fur so it's okay." She replied to the joke. She smiled at Fayte when he shared his observation. "I've been lucky these past couple days. Two people have shown concern over me. I really appreciate it. But yes I am very tired and I still have three more shows and then the fights. But I think with some food and rest I will live through it all. My name is Katherine but you can just call me Kat. So my little furry friend what brings you to my cheery corner of hell?" She said to Fayte resting her head on her forelegs.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aaron sighed not seeing anyone that stood out at least not immediately. "Care for a drink?" He offered to Kathia warmly concluding that whoever had cut the rope was long gone by now. "We could stop at the coffee shop...is that girl riding her slave?" He said spotting Sam. It was certainly a strange sight but he didn't think anything of it, dragons were slaves to be used for whatever purpose their masters gave them. If the girl wanted to ride on it's back that was her prerogative. Aaron shrugged it off as a weird preference and returned his attention to the lady next to him. "Whatever. So how about it Miss Rittevon? My treat of course." he offered with a flirting smile.

((Ahaha, no they're not thieves. Sam just causes trouble is all. If that means watching a slaver run after her slave, she finds it funny))
Sam fidgeted on Vox's back and took another sip of her drink. She noticed the man look over and she smiled sheepishly while offering an innocent wave. The smile was mostly because she wanted to laugh. Oh how she loved being a pest. Sam reached around and abruptly shoved another piece of jerky into Vox's mouth, "That one earned an extra treat, buddy" Vox returned with a snort of laughter.
"Fights?..." Fayt murmured. He'd missed her question while in thought. Fayt was a great mechanic. He knew he could pick the lock but that might cause a bit of a scene. Ice breath would go better here. I could shatter the lock he thought. No one seemed to be watching. "You think you could fly if you got out?" he managed to pull off one of Albel's micheivous smirks.

((Soldier: Sir if we raise the right signal flags they will open their gates to us. General: Shut up book worm. Men, get the battering ram! Men: Raaaaaahhhh!!! That was the first thing that went through my mind when I saw your post but I see plenty of practicalities in Fayte's choice ^_^))
Kat smiled at the furry creature. "I can fly but how far I would get is another question entirely." She looked Fayte in the eyes as she spoke. "Why, are you going to rescue me from the trouserless wonder and his band if sniveling lackeys?" She said feigning to be a damsel in distress at the end. "Knights normally were shinning armor but I guess fur is good too." Her voice was almost too smug like she didn't believe Fayte could pull it off, but her eyes were hopeful.

"I think I may have an idea," said Rooi. The timing was perfect when both Harumi and Sora woke up. "Morning," Rooi replied back to Sora. After Harumi asked where they were going, Rooi said, "We have no idea, since the three of us aren't from around here, but maybe you would know. Harumi, do you know where a city nearest to Cypress is at?"
((You may use an existing city that's at the Role Play Info's thread, 'Infos on Continents', or you may make up your own city so that I can add it to the thread.))
An electric jolt zapped the collar and shocked the dragon slave who yelped in response. Kathia being too busy with the conversation, was unaware of what just happened. "Slave traders huh? I'll have to consider purchasing a slave from you someday," she said. After Aaron examined the leash and pointed out that someone, a thief, must have cut the rope. "Or it could one of those blasted dragon sympathizers! They're always preaching stop enslaving dragons, stop hunting them, and they tried to take our slaves from us so that they can free them. They're nothing but idiots! They don't even know the importance of why we use dragons and their parts," Kathia ranted. Then when Aaron offered her a drink at the coffee shop, Kathia replied, "Why sure, I would love to." Then she turned her attention to the girl riding her dragon and said, "Looks like it." Then they went to a coffee and ordered a hot chocolate with steamed milk.

((lol WELL THEN Also, Red, it would help if we could create boards there )) Fayt chuckled light heartedly as he looked between her and the lock. "We can sneak you out of here. I walk around here and no one asks questions. They say if you walk with confidence and direction, no one will question your destination. I say we try at least. You can fly somewhere I'm sure" he spoke cheerfully. He laughed in a sort of dry-air sound and looked at the lock. He used his ice breath to cover the lock and its insides in freezing ice. Many people took Fayt lightly because of his friendly disposition. They never took into account he could be nearly as destructive as Albel. SNAP! The lock shattered in one strong, yet seemingly effortless tug and fell to the ground in pieces as he let them go. He straightened himself out and looked down at the cage. "If the lady is willing to travel" Sam tapped her fingers thoughtfully against her drink. The slave didn't seem to notice what Vox had done. "Vox, if you'd please" he looked to Kathia's slave. "I believe I successfully surged your collar. Whenever you feel like running... pick carefully so you don't get shot" he said telepathically. While the colalr may have been shut down, the slave could still be shot if police were nearby.

"Well," Harumi said while thinking carefully, "there is Athens to the north." She smiles before continuing. "I've heard that it's a beautiful place. We could go there."

"Alright Athens, it is! We'll be going over there as soon we eat breakfast," Rooi said. Then she looked at Ronan and asked, "Hey Ronan, is the deer ready to eat yet?"
The slave, who had been tied outside the coffee shop, heard a telepathic voice that told him that the collar has been surged so that Kathia couldn't shock him with the remote again. With his master inside the shop drinking hot chocolate, the dragon decided that this was the perfect time to escape. So he began to gnaw at the leash to tear it loose. Once he was freed, the dragon started crawling away through the streets.

Ronan took the meat off the racks for cooling. "It's ready but I recommend waiting for it to cool off so you dont burn yourself." He grabbed one and tossed the meat at Drake who ate it in one gulp. He breaths fire so the heat of the food was nothing new to him.
The stranger noticed the slave dragon from earlier crawling by without its master. Poor creature must've gotten free. Now would be an excellent time to help him. He thought. He walked over next to the dragon and followed him. He whispered to him,"Do not be afraid, I'm here to help you. There's two streets to get past before you can reach the city gates. You won't get out without my help so I'll need you to trust me." He took hold of the rope but held it loosely. "Just pretend and you'll escape the city to freedom." He whispered again. He held his naginata tightly in his left hand just incase he needed to use it.

((ya I'm milking the pants thing for all it's worth ^_^ Hope you don't mind me snatching Fayte I can edit if you like.))
Katherine eyed Fayte with genuin intrigue. "They do, do they? I guess that just applies to you though. need to walk on two legs to be considered more than just an animal by these things." She said sarcastically but as he started breathing ice on the lock Kat sat up and watched silently. No way, he's really doing this. SNAP! The lock came off in shattered pieces and the gate to her cage creaked open, no longer restrained by the lock. Kat sat in silennt shock as she stared at Fayte. What about the others though? She thought looking over to Bale's cage. She didn't have long to think, having heard the snap from inside a nearby trailer Blagus came out in a t-shirt and heart boxers. "What was that noi...Oi what do you think your doing with our slave!?" Kat's mind kicked into high gear and she lept out of the cage and snatched up Fayte as she took off into the air yelling back at Balgus. "We were going to buy you a new belt." And as she flew away she yelled back over her shoulder. "But I guess you don't need one anymore!" She couldn't resist one last taunt at the oaf's expense. After she was well into the air and above the clouds she looked down at her unwitting passenger clutched carefully between her claws. "Eehhh....sorry for picking you up like that. Kind of a first thought thing. I can't really just let go of you from here, and landing in the city is out of the question. Uhhh...care to join me for quick trip to the forest Mr. Furry?"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Aaron lead the way into the coffee shop and ordered himself a cup of Irish breakfast tea. When the drinks were ready he payed for them and sat down at a table inside the store with Kathia handing her the hot chocolate. "Sympathizers." Aaron almost spat the word. "Alas much like jerks and losers I believe sympathizers exist solely to make life difficult, they're nothing but useless hippies who contribute nothing to society. But, to be quite frank so long as they're purchasing dragons from my family I really don't care what they do with them...heck releasing them back into the wild essentially recycles them since they probably just get caught later. Huh, I retract my earlier statement, they do contribute to society after all." he joked sipping on his tea.
((A the joys of a well oiled economical system. The spell will effectively rust that too XD))
