While it was still dark, the light coming from the village was bright enough to illuminate some of those grim faces in front. Carwain took one look at them and groaned inwardly. At least with luck, maybe he could get rid of the group behind him before he started negotiating himself out of the mass.
By the look of the leader, he clearly recognised Carwain as well, so when Carwain steered his horse straight towards them and waved a hand above his head slightly, risking an arrow, the leader barked a word and made a signal.

Several men rode forward with arrows nocked, when the oncoming group behind the fleeing man on horseback reached the firing range, they unleashed their own rain of arrows. Screams and yells filled the air, and the sound of arrow flying through the empty space between the two groups was loud and clear. Carwain reined in his horse as he neared the waiting group, and he managed a disgruntled look. Immediately, he was unhorsed.

"We wouldn't want you running out again, would we?" Sanum said sarcastically as he tied Carwain's hands behind his back.
"You don't have to, i'm glad you guys get rid of them," Carwain replied, jerking his chin towards the sound of the fighting.
"That's because you owe us enough to warrant some... attention."

Later that day, Cathy went to the market. She got a few things that she needed, and went back to her house.



Hey, I have a quick question, before I continue. Since my characters are kinda off, and away from the other characters, could someone bring them into the main plot or something?



Donavin took one more look in the mirror, before leaving his hut. He stopped by a feild, and picked a big boquet of flowers for Cathy.

um, ok... Carwain's up against his enemy, and Jack and the others are trying to elude the remaining pursuers..... (that's your plot, owl). I'm gonna get Oridea out of the city, maybe we can work something up there.

It was getting really late into the night. Exhaution crept up onto the dancers and party makers. The music however, took on a slightly cheerful tone, and the food and drink was replenished. The celebration continued, unabated.

"Time to go already?" Llian said, surprised as his cousin excused herself for the night.
"Why don't you two enjoy yourself and i'll see you tomorrow morning?" Oridea smiled apologetically and winked at Kala.
Kala laughed, "I thought you've boundless energy." However, she gave Oridea a squeeze in the hand and steered Llian away towards other friends.
----

Breathing in the cold air, she quietly slipped back into her aunt's estate. Something small and quick was flying towards her, and she stretched out her arm. Ruffle landed delicately, his eyes unnerving.
*Bad news...*

While the night wore on and the city was just on the edge of going into a slumbler, Oridea reached the Intelligence Office where she was quickly admitted into the working room of Carwain's friend.

"He's not here," Uyn said.
"Don't i know it," she replied, taking a chair.
Uyn shrugged, "The thing is, i only know vaguely what he's up to."
"And i've bad news for you," Oridea slammed the broken arrowhead onto the table.
Uyn picked it up gingerly and closely examined the arrowhead, he turned it in the light to get a better look. Then he grunted, "So they've caught up to him at last."

Oridea arched her eyebrows, "You don't seem surprised."
Uyn offered a crooked smile, "That's because they've been sniffing his trail for months. Carwain knows that."
She shook her head, "What do you propose?"
"Can't do much right now, our resources are tight at the moment."
"Am i supposed to rescue your "boss" by myself?" she said incredulously.
He pondered awhile, "Well, it'll be very much appreciated if you volunteered..." he put up his hands in protest as she glared at him, "But i think we can at least get you equipped with some information before going."

"People, Uyn, i need hard trained, bright intelligence agents that you can spare."
"Right.... and a couple of right people for you when you reach the checkpoints, that's all i can do."

Cathy talked to Ryan a little longer, before he left. After he left, a knock sounded at the door. Cathy opened it.
"Donavin, come on in." Cathy said. Donavin smiled, and walked into the house.
"I trust you've been well, Cathy." Donavin asked, handing her the boquet of flowers.
"Yes, I have been very well. Thank you." Cathy said, taking the flowers and putting them into a vase.
"Good. Are planning on doing anything tomorrow?" Donavin asked.
"Yes, actually I am. My cousin is comming up here. I haven't seen her in quite a long time."
"Well, do you think that your cousin will mind going on a picnic tomorrow?"
"Maybe the day after. She'll be very tired from traveling, and will most likely sleep the rest of the day. Wait, I take that back. Marianne never was the one who'd sleep after a day of traveling. I think she'd actually enjoy a picnic."
"Very well. I shall make arangements for you, Marianne and Lusha to come with me on a picnic tomorrow. Shall we say, 3:00?"
"That will do."
"Great. Until tomorrow." Donavin tipped his hat, and walked out the door. Cathy walked upstairs.
"Lusha, Donavin invited us on a picnic tomorrow."
"What about cousin Marianne?"
"She's coming too."
"Goodness. You sure know how to buisy up each day, don't you."

ok. hi owl, what's happening with your group of characters?
----
Oridea has already left a note explaining her sudden disappearance, in no time at all she was packed with supplies and a horse. Ruffle was waiting somewhere ahead, hopefully keeping track of Carwain. Uyn handed over a few envelops, and outlined to her where the checkpoints were.

She started out early next morning, when the sun was just peeking over the horizon. Well rested, she spurned her horse down to the village where Carwain was captured.
