*Jack begins to point towards the figure, then thinks better of it. After all, the guy is obvious. He begins to calculate the odds of catching the figure versus the odds of running into trouble...and then begins to chase after the figure anyway. He begins to run from rubble to rubble, stopping a couple of seconds every hiding place (just in case...).*

Hide Almost had him making the occasional Captain Kirk shoulder roll, but that seemed much.)

*I nod at Jack and tilt my head towards the figure. Then follow behind my friend a little more slowly knowing that I step harder than he does. Not really trying to hide, I just try to catch up as quickly as I can.*

( OOC: Okay sorry if this comes across a bit half ***. I wrote a detailed
post last night at around 5:00 am. Ended up getting a phone call and was
sure I hit the add reply button. However when I checked it this afternoon
it wasn’t here. With that said here is a quicker replacement post. )


Gondin :

* It isn’t long before your feet take you to the northern boundaries of the
ruined city. The main road that goes north/south in these parts is the same
road that cuts directly thru the city. The road splits off or at least a cart size
path heads off in either direction. These smaller paths look as if they were
created by folks passing this way but not wanting to actually go through
Doing so would add no less than a half a day’s journey if your plans were
to continue south. Heading east or west at this point on either path would
be fine if you were heading in either of those directions. As you enter into
the city proper you begin scanning the ruins, nothing seeming different or
out of place since the last time through. You eye catches something moving
up ahead. Not much larger than a dark oblong spot but it looks as if its
crossing over the main road. You lose light of sight after it reaches the
other side due to the various ruin building and whatnot. *

Everett :

* You quickly traverse the distance inside the building, the mule doesn’t
seem interested but the horse watches you as you head across the room
When you reach the opening in the wall you take a quick look to see what
you can.

You see younger woman with long black hair, sturdy boots, leather breaches,
shirt, belt, gloves, and cloak running after the other, she carries a long sword
in her hand. A brown haired man, somewhat taller, wearing leather armor and
a dagger looks to be trying harder to remain hidden but both are moving east
now parallel to the building. *

Larissa & Jack

* As the two of you move down the building, jack in the lead. You can make
out the figure still moving away from you heading east. The figure is now
about two blocks away and seems to be calmly walking down the middle of
the street. In the span of moments you reach the intersection of the easterly
road and the main one that runs north/south. There is about 40ft between
this side and the other that will provide no cover. *

{ If either of you happens to glance around you notice a street pole on the
opposite side of the street. its broken and hanging over on itself but the
signs are still readable. - Not sure which is which with the angle its hanging
but at least you know the names of the two streets are Allight Lane & Maker's
Row.

*Gondin mounts his horse , pulls his cloak over his head and rides a little faster up ahead, trying to make out the 'spot'. His crossbow held in his right hand, just in case.

"Well, boy, looks like something is skittering about up ahead, might be lunch or might be a darned big cave rat! Lets get a better look see. Lemme know if you sense something boy...We are all alone here."

*Being unsure of what these two peoples motives are he does not want to approach them just yet, instead he decides to follow them hoping to get a better idea of just who they are and what they are doing here.*

*I keep moving forward trying to get as close as I can so we can find out who this person is and what they are upto. And why they seem so evasive.*

[I wonder why this guy is trying to avoid us, can't wait until we catch up so we can find out. He'll probably try to run once he sees us though...]

*I try to pick up the pace just a bit and still be as quiet as I can and yet be prepared to start running in case they do too.*

*Jack continues to stealthily catch up to the figure. The aparent non-chalance the figure demonstrates in his casual walking reinforces the ease of Jack's approach.*

As easy as pie. Mmmmmm...Pie...

*At that, a thought crosses the mad One's mind. What if he is aware of us? Jack's mind begins to cascade with the mental eddies of possible scenarios. As he continues to tail the unknown personage before him, he starts scanning the structures about him. His ears seem to open wider to pick up unusual sounds, sounds that indicate ambush. He also tries to pick up subtle clues from the figure, to see if he/she/it/pie has detected them.*

Gondin :

* As you ride into the ancient city you get closer and closer, another figure,
this time you can make out the form is humanoid, maybe even female. A
moment later another figure dashes across the open area this time the figure
seems to be trying to use steal. It pauses momentarily and seems to look at
you before continuing on. *

Everett :

* You move forward trying to hurry but be as quiet as you can you don’t get
far before kicking a small stone into a nearby pile of stones. Knowing there
isn’t much you can do you hope that it goes unnoticed and continue on. The
two of them make the dash across the street. You not the male pauses to
look north then possibly back in your directions. *

Larissa :

* You bolt across the street trying to close the distance between you and
the mysterious figure still casually walking away. You do just that but surely
it has to have heard the commotion by now. *

Jack :

* As you move to follow after Larissa who has now moved ahead of you
and is in a big hurry to find out just who or what this is you get about half
way across the street and notice to the north that someone is riding your
way on a horse you hear a sound from behind you, a stone skipping across
the ground perhaps. If the figure hasn’t noticed you by now it hasn’t led on
or maybe it’s just extremely hard of hearing. *

Wee scrunches up his face trying to make out anything distinguishing about the person crossing the road. (Spot check:14)

MR. Wee Yells Loudly: "Hey, You Idjit! You caint 'Sneak' out in Tha Open! Yer sure to git festoonified by crossbow stickers that way! Fanny all swollen up and feathered like a Yule Gobledybird! Yeah...I'm yellin' at YOU!' Wee waves the light crossbow in a slight featherduster fashion.(Not hard enough to evict the bolt)

Wee continues forward at half move and will slow when in medium range.

"Clang..clang..rattle.jingle..jingle" the gear and metal trade goods clattering from the pack of his Bone E fried Dwarft War Horse.

* When Gondin begins to yell and makes his mock charge this gets everyone’s
attention. Even Larissa hears the commotion, even though she’s past the
street. Jack manages to get a good look at the approaching dwarf. Both the
sounds of the warhorse and the dwarf yelling create an echoing effect making
it hard for Everett and Larissa to tell by hearing exactly where he is. Although
Jack can see it’s a dwarf he can’t make out features so much. ( Jim : I will
except a new spot and/or listen check now that you can act on this new
information. Everyone else can act accordingly with what they hear too. ) *

( OOC : Cody, Jim and Larissa : Please include an extra d20 roll separate from
anything you might already be rolling for you next post. Jim if you get 14 or
higher on either roll you can tell its your friend by sight or sound. )

*Realizing things have just changed with this new person showing up, where ever they are, he ducks behind some cover, and tries to find this new person...or people*

I don't think he was talking about me, most likely that silly person I was following. Hopefully they still don't know I am here yet.

*Jack looks around, wondering what sort of thrice-cursed individual would try to out do him in the Wacky Jack department. His mind goes back to when he went "Booga booga booga booga" to a kobold mmmm....Kobolds...chief, just before being chased around their trap infested lair. Shaking his head, Jack focuses on the new person in ruins, and sees..that..it's...*

"Oh lords of chaos, it's the Wee!"

*With a look on his face of sheer terror, Jack suddenly flees towards where the mysterious figure is. Lungs working frantically, He doesn't even attempt stealth. in fact, he talks to himself as he goes.*

"Gotta...Run.."

*He suddenly stops his mad dash, and begins to do a heel-toe stepping, shaking an imaginary hat as he does. He seems to almost sing his next words.*

"Gotta...Dance!"

*He then snaps out of the momentary oddity. Looking to the ground, he begins to talk.*

"You're right, Harvey! We've got to run! We must flee! We've got to milk the cow fantastic! No wait ! No time for that!"

*With that Jack starts running towards the figure.*

(OOC: spotting the wee Needless to say, Jack made the check)

are going to be times where posting between each other is what will hold you

*I cringe and look towards the noise as I stop in mid-stride and then turn back to the shadowy figure since I can't tell what the comotion is. Then continue towards the person I'm persuing. When I hear Jack run off making noise. I figure that he will tackle that problem, while I take this one.*

[What in the nine hells was that? Oh well, Jack will probably go find out while I take care of things over here. This isn't right, all that noise and this person doesn't even turn around? Its got to be a trap!]

*Once I get close enough, I reach out to grab a shoulder with my left hand. Sword ready to impale him if things get hairy. ...*

(OOC: Well heres my roll: http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2893217/ 19 so hopefully I made it.)

Gondin's horse half thunders down the road all a clatter as the mighty Negro skinned Mountain Dwarf pulls him into a skid then a beautiful dancing. He watches the strange fellow do a scatterbrained tarratella and scream his name before bolting. It brings a twinkle of memory about a youthful rogue who had damaged his brain when he sampled a cup of Bugbear whiskey...or was it the clubbering of that morningstar.....

Wee makes his way toward where the man ran to, horse dancing. His eyes squinting, still trying to make sense out of things.

Wee face breaks into a beacon smile, he begins to chuckly like an Otyug who had tunneled into a hobbit birthday party...".Huhh, huhh huhhh...Ha..ha..Harr..Harr,
No use runnin', the rocks caint hide you from 'Tha Hammer'!"

With that Wee lays the reins into his lap and places the crossbow strapped on his back and takes out a Massive Golden Dwarven Hammer,lifting it skyward to catch the light.

"Dang it! Now Ima gonna have to come in thar and grab ye by yer ear to git yer attenshun! I gots a reputation to uphold an all!" Wee dismounts takes a beautiful dwaven made shield onto his arm and sighs. (Spot check 3)

Everett :

* No one seems to be paying much attention your way and even though
your quite sure at least one of them knows your there. The warhorse riding
dwarf comes skidding into view before doing some kind of dancing maneuver
with his mount, switching from his already drawn crossbow to a shield and
hammer. He quickly begins making an attempt to find the man that just a
moment ago seemed nearly raving mad as he fled the scene. You’re really
the only one at this point that has a line of sight on the female. She’s quickly
closing the distance between herself and the dark mysterious figure they seem
to be after. *

Larissa :

* You put all your efforts into reaching and attacking your foe if need be. As
you get within about 10ft of him for the first time he turns around. It’s a
man; maybe about 50 give or take a few years, his graying hair long enough
to hang inches past his shoulders. The robe he wears is a fine deep blue, so
blue it looks black. The material is dull in nature except for the wide red and
gold trim on the edges and cuffs. A warm smile is on his face and he looks at
you like you have been friends for your entire life. When he speaks it’s to you
and you alone, its sounds so warm and inviting. *

" Larissa, be a dear and make sure the others don’t want to harm me. Now
run off and gather everyone up for me would you? "

* For a moment you think ' he’s my friend ' then it occurs to you don’t know
this man! You reach out to grab him but you hand crumples against some
unseen barrier. his smile doesn’t leave his face but changes into that of
someone knowing much more than you. Your momentum carries you’re into
the barrier, you hit hard but not hard enough to hurt much more than your
pride. You find yourself lying on the ground as he finishes what he was
saying.*

" Well now that didn’t go as I would have hoped. At this moment though, it
would be the wisest thing to do. I mean you no harm, if I had you would not
be here. Gather your friends and come sit with me a spell. "

Grondin & Jack :

* Jack heads right towards the dark figure but in a b-line motion that takes
him in and out of various walls and rubble. by the time he’s online with the
thing he can see Larissa falling to the ground at its feet. It still has not tied
to hurt her either. With Grondin on your tail he also sees about the same
thing but also seeing this figure for the first time. *

( OOC: Larissa, Grondin and Jack all see him by his description in this post
now and if you want more details I can but I didn’t want to go on and on
about clothes. )
