Leo followed the map and realized that the address was on the far side of town, north of the plaza. He sprinted through town, dodging and weaving obstacles gracefully, until finally he made his way into the heart of the plaza. Oddly though it was surprisingly empty for a weekday. Sensing something was wrong he quickly made his way north until he had reached the address.

Leo rung the doorbell and waited for a while... A man in his late 50's answered the door. "Password?" He is asked dully. "PASSWORD!?" "Umm.. food?" Leo replied. The man grunted and took the food and money. He returned to he house and brought back a backpack which he handed to Leo. "Watch yourself, boy, guard activity has increased dramatically in the plaza."

"Oh yeah? Well I can take on an-- *SLAM* .... Weirdo..." He said as he walked away from the house, ego slightly bruised.

"Ahhh a long history then between you two." He said, "well seems like a nice enought place in this city." he said as he laughed.

//@ GRace i loved that last part it made me smile XD

[Ookami-onea-chan91]

"Yeah I guess you could say that about us..." Smiling slightly although it didn't really show in wolf form. "But as just friends its kinda boring, but no one has ever gotten close to Charlie cause she doesn't like deep relationships, guess she's used to things like that." Shrugging as he turned down a side street to take him to the rebels hospital.

"What the hell are you?" Noelle scowls as she stares at his tails, she knew there was some strange people in the world but this took the cake before narrowing her eyes, "Talent?" she scoffs, "It's more keeping my ass alive than talent."

[Darc Crusada]

"well i guess some people are just like that expecially in this line of work." He said as he followed Jason, "So how did you get the ability to shift like that?" He asked.

[Natsunaine]

Lance smiled and shook his head with his arms folded "It Doesn't matter what i am dear. But i do have an offer for you if you don't mind me carrying you a few more roofs" He chuckled and pointed in the direction of charlies alley "There is place this way that has free food and a place to stay"

he walked over to the area where he had dropped his sword and once more put it on his back looking up at the women "As for your talent you would make a fine mercenary like myself. I am known around this area as the Slaughtering Kistune. Have you heard of me?" The smile he was famous for appeared once again on his face.

[Ookami-onea-chan91]

Jason nodded and glanced up at him. "Ummm.... Well I believe that it was when I was taken as a child for my regular shots. I guess I got a bad batch of lycanthropy serum that was supposed to help prevent me from catching it." Sighing as he trotted along. "Oh and the only the person that really is close to Charlie is Ted. I swear they gotta be a couple."

[Dawn]

Noelle gives him a very evil eye, "How do I know your not some pervert?" she now wished she had chosen to wear a much longer dress, "and fine but no funny business." she crosses her arms, "Mercenary? I honestly never had much on my mind besides where my next meal is coming from and who's ass I am going to kick to get it. And no, I haven't."

[Darc Crusada]

The man laughed, "well everyone has to have somebody." he said as they arrived at the hospital.

[Graceful Reaper]

As he walked back to the plaza Leo noticed a lone guard carrying a assault rifle marching around the plaza. *Leo thinking* (Hmm... should I engage him..? I can sense he's alone but... aww why not?) Leo charged at the lone guard, sword drawn. The guard saw him coming from a mile away and fired several shots at him. Leo easily deflected them with his sword.

The guard realised he needed to change tactics, dropped the gun and brung out his combat knife, slashing Leo on his cheek. "Tch! Damn you!" he said as he slashed at the guard. Easily deflecting his attacks, the guard slashed again but missed, giving Leo a opening. He was able to slash his arm off and followed up with a leg sweep, sweeping the guard off his feet. "Please, I have a family!" Leo paused for a moment.. "I HAD one too. Know my pain!" he said as he thrusted his sword into the mans chest.

"Geez, more trouble then you were worth.." said Leo as he took his opponents weapons and stuffed them in the backpack. Leo headed back unaware of a spectator..

[Natsunaine]

Lance smiled and gently picked the girl up on his back and began jumping roof to roof being careful to not drop the women "Well, Are you new to this town?" He paused jumping for a moment to be aware of his surroundings he noticed Leo killing the poor lone guard and shook his head "That boy needs to learn" He mumbled to him self as he began jumping again

Lance had reach the alley way of charlies Rebellion Hide out he jumped to the Balcony gently letting the women down and knocking on the door "Charlie! Are you in here? I have someone who needs to meet you"

[Dawn]

"I guess you could say that." Noelle replies, praying this crazy dude doesn't drop her, "but than, I usually don't stay in one place long. Things have been getting, well.. crazy."

[Ookami-onea-chan91]

Jason nodded slowly and pushed through the swinging doors intote rebel hospital and let out a small woof like sound as he glanced straight up to meet the end of a double barrel shot gun that was aimed at him first. "Password?" The elderly looking man huffed out in a grumbling tone. "Charmaine's frost." Jason said the words accented with a low rumbling growl as he sat down on his rump. "She sent a round of daily meals as normal Jud so calm down and put the damned thing down before you kill me on accident." Growling as he shook his head. "Fine fine Jas, but first you need explain who this is?" Pointing to Darc with his gun. "Guest from Charlie, so just calm down already."

Charlie appeared at the door of her restaurant and raised a brow at Lance before looking at the girl. "Ooookay....Ummm another new person?" Sighing she stepped back to let them come through as he held the door open. "Get your plates of food and eat. Then we can talk."

[Darc Crusada]

Darc smiled softly as he handed the back pack over to the man, "Hows it going?" he asked.

[Graceful Reaper]

A second guard, hiding on a nearby rooftop watched everything that had unfolded between Leo and the guard. Unknown to Leo he was there, the guard fired a rocket launcher shell at Leo. Unfortunately, Leo heard it go off before it even left the launcher. "Aw, damn it! My only option would be to evade it!" He said.

He took cover behind a bazaar stand. When the shell hit the plaza, it exploded in a glory of intense heat and shrapnel. Which severely injured Leo, ripping the karate Gi he was wearing to shreds. "Huff.. gotta make a quick escape.." He threw a smoke bomb down on the already shrouded in smoke, destroyed plaza. Making his way back to the balcony of Charlies restaurant...
