((This is continued from the terrwyn saeth thread with okami, ai, branwyn, eragon, and now mei.))
Mei continued to follow the couple, treading softly and trying to remain unnoticed in the large crowd that surrounded her. They had given her normal clothes.. Low-slung jeans, a tight short top, and a ponytail holder for her hair, but the clothes weren't comfortable and she wondered if the job could be completed with them on. She also hated that parts of her were exposed.. She missed her flowy clothes, layered with a sash. They were meant for the martial arts. But they would make her too conspicuous-- she couldn't tell, but they knew. She didn't trust them. But she needed someone-- and her currency didn't work here. She needed money. They were paying her. That was all that mattered. She could only tell who she was following by their voices. They had led her to them; now it was her job to keep track of them and finish them off.

Okami sensed a presence. He tried to make himself stop breathing. Anything to be safe. anything.. he'd risked his life working for SCorpIA too many times before. now that he'd quit, they were rebelling against him, so his life was still on the line. why couldn't they just leave him alone?!

((you guys still posted on terrwyn saeth!!!!! it was supposed to be on the streets.. and oh yes, did mei just like disappear there? you guys got jumped and then she was like totally out of the picture!!!!))
Mei slashed someone, but she knew it wasn't her target. Quickly she jumped up on the person she'd slashed's head and then onto a rooftop. She couldn't hear anyone follow her or yell. Blindly, of course, she began running. She could see by the shadowy light she could barely detect that the sun was near setting. Good, she thought. The darkness would give her cover. She reached the end of the roof and leapt down, landing awkwardly on a dumpster. Hurriedly she put out her staff and found a corner. She could feel a dark presence, and she knew it was her employers. She bowed in the traditional Japanese way and reached out, asking for her clothes. Slowly she searched around for an enclosed space to change. Once done, she fled. She knew the creatures she worked for would not be happy that she had failed her mission. They had said kill them and get money, or die. She heard a fat drop of rain hit the ground and turned, putting her staff out. She was now on the main street. Stopping the nearest person with a tap from her staff, she asked if he could tell her how to get to the nearest hotel. Seeing she was blind, the man began to lead her to his own apartment. The small girl smiled to herself. This would be easy. She would follow him, trick him into believing she was easy, and simply dispatch him. She'd have shelter and a bed to sleep in, at least until someone noticed he was missing.

((i noticed that too........ Kirsten, u wrote one very long entry. LOL. OMG guys, our tree in our back yard blew over onto our neighbors house!!!! Their tree also fell on their house!! I feel so sry for them........ at least it wasn't our house))
Ai watched the strange figure crawl over the roof. Realizing that it could not be caught up with she focused her attention towards Eragon. He had been hurt pretty bad. But as she watched him get up, she saw that he was already healed. 'That's strange,' she thought. In a few moments, Eragon was up and on his feet. "Ai, I'll see ya later, I've gotta talk to Eragon," Okami said. "O, ok" she said. As Okami and Eragon walked off in the other direction, Ai thought about all that had happened that night. She had told Okami about her feelings for him, and he had shared those feelings with her. Then they had been attacked by god only knows what and then he had left her to walk home. She felt completely paranoid, glancing this way and that, to make sure no one was following her. She wished desperately for someone she knew to be with her.

After their discussion,Eragon and Okami headed their separate ways. Okami walked down the dimly lit alleyways. A streetlight near him flickered, then burned out. Figures, he thought to himself. Darkness always seemed to find him, and he never quite knew why..or how...

(( don't feel like writing much today )) Ai continued down the street, scensing something around her, but she wasn't sure what. 'I need to get home,' she thought.

'wow that was..interesting,' he continues on his way, thinking to himself about he and eragon actually being brothers. suddenly he hears ai's worried thoughts. he snaps into action. 'where is she? what's going on? hey wait..where am i? ' he looks around, in an area that is totally unfamiliar to him.
((I sorry, Aimee *hugs*))

eragon stayed in one spot for a while. He glanced at his watch and realized that it was 11:30, almost midnight. 'Okami, we gotta go to the church! Now!!!! Bring Ai if you have to! Let's move!' ERagon sent the mind message to Okami quickly. He found Ai and Okami's location and ran off towards it.
((it was only like, one block away))

Mei was now comfortable, and she had never started a job without finishing it. After dispatching her guide and stealing his key to the apartment, she found her subjects by their voices fairly quickly in the silent night. The church... where would that be? She willed the trio to keep talking. She knew now that she would kill the other as well... she had to finish him. He was still alive, even after her deep slash across his arm.. She drew a dagger out of her legstraps and began stalking them.

((stalking?! dagger?!!?!? creepy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!))
Okami felt that something was VERY wrong. He muttered the word "kuro" to himself and continued on his way, looking over his shoulder at every turn, yet he never saw anyone. 'Wats going on?' he wondered to himself. He was acting so self-conscious. 'wats wrong with me?' he added.

Mei leapt onto a roof, crouching and running quickly until she felt the end with her staff. Then she continued to follow the pair... until they stopped. she stood stock still, hoping they hadn't noticed her.

Ai continued to walk down the dark alley. She was nearing her house. 'Thank God,' she thought. She was exhausted from the long day. She went to her room, changed into something comfortable, then jumped into her bed. She fell asleep the instant her head hit the covers, thinking about what was to come the day after.
((I get to see Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants on Friday!!!! I'm soo psyched!!!! Unfortunately I have band the same day, and will probably late for the party, erins party that is, and i get my social pics back today, but i got to finish math, almost done))

"Shhhhhhhh......." Eragon whispered very quietly. "Something's out there......" Thier eyes started to dart around, in hopes of a glimpse of something. Eragon saw a shadow, one that had never been there before. He tapped Okami's shoulder and pointed towards it. 'What is it.....' Eragon started. It moved......'Walk very quietly and make no sounds...' they all started to silently move. 'There it is. We'll be safe in there.' Eragon and Okami started to get excited. Ai was nervous. She still felt that something was wrong.

Mei stiffened as the footsteps neared her. As they went past, she pounced, slamming into one person's back. Quickly she darted away, realizing her tactic was wrong. Spying would get a lot more done. It might be too late for that though.. the rain was falling hard and she couldn't hear the little things anymore. Silently, Mei prayed for wisdom, and blindly ran.
