Angel Rose debates

[angelrosebladess]

As she looked into the window Angel Rose debated if she should enter or not. Her pitch black hair blowing in her face partially covering her deep blue eyes. She bit her lower lip and walked past knowing she should be on her way. As she walked she heard, what sounded like foot-steps from above her. She looked up and saw a figure but couldn't make out if the figure was male or female. Angel quickened her pace trying to make it to her home without havine to confront anyone.
She kept looking over her shoulder and saw that the figure was following her. Her heart quickened as she turned into an alleyway, normally a safe haven for her but she felt fear as she continued walking and heard a thud behind her. She gasped and stopped, slowly turning to see what it was that made it. She saw no one and figured it was a cat or something that made the noise. She shook off her fear realizing she was being silly. She continued walking but heard foot steps yet again but this time it sounded like there was more than one set.

[Lady Blackwell]

Max was idolly walking through a town, as her saw a young woman looking into the window of the tavern, he stopped and looked at her, she had long black hair, and when she turned to walk past him he saw how stunning she looked. and as she went down the street some what.

Max heard "Hey look at her" in a soft whisper, followed by "Let's get that one" with a 'hey sexy' whistle.

As max looked around to who could of said that, he saw a figure jump over the ally way beside him.

The Roof! Max thought as he quickly climbed up and ran after the guy who just ran by, and as he was gaining on the figure, the stunning female turned down an alley. and just as the man was about to jump into the alley way, Max Tackled him clear across the opening, he then rested his hand on the man's head, and used his paralysis touch.

"Shh! dont say a word" Max whispered, not like the man could, he had no control of his limbs at all, but the natural breathing and beating of his heart remained the same.

Max quickly turned around as he heard scampering of feet on dirt, he did a quick estimate of 3 or 4, and as he looked. there was a good 4 Beggers just about to turn down the alley way, Max sighed and jumped down. landed on his feet and went down to a knee. and slowly got up letting his cloak below in the wind, obscurring his face from view, of the beggers.

Angel stopped and turned facing the ones following her. The wind blowing her hair behind her and the light from the street made her pale skin glow. She stood there looking at the 4 beggers behinder her and saw the figure between them and her and figured he wanted a piece of her too. She pulled out her sword and waited for them to attack. She glared at them all ready for anything they throw at her.

As she watched the figure inbetween her and the assaliants she began to wonder who he was and why he was there. She waited patiently watching as the figure who stood before her dared any of the beggars to come towards either of them.

[Lady Blackwell]

Max drew his sword, cracked his shoulders and slowly approached the beggers.

"If you were smart, you wouldn't still be standing there" Max said as he rushed at one and stabbed it through the stomach.

He then looked at the others and motioned for them to try anything. they all rushed him at once, max ducked one attack and punched the guy in the face sending him sprawling backwards, as he spun on a heel, and slashed out, slicing a gash in one of the begars stomachs.

Just as Max regained his balance he felt something stab him through his shoulder, he quickly rolled to the side, while holding the wound with his one hand and the sword in the other, as he lunged towards the last begger he tripped, and ended up headbutting the bandit in the stomach sending him back into the wall.

"He killed them Get him!" he heard a few people say, so as he regained some mobility he tried to make a break for it, down the alley. just barely stopping infront of the woman he has just saved, and as he shifted his weight he collapsed. the dagger in his shoulder had done some serious damage, and it was taking its toll on max.

[angelrosebladess]

Angel watched the fight between the figure and the beggers. She looked down at him and back at the beggers coming towards them. She stepped over his body as one of them went to attack him she blocked the swing and pushed him back causing him to trip over the garbage cans hitting his head rendering him unconscious. She turned to the rest and started slashing.
The beggers turned and ran off without looking back. Angel heard the figure groan in pain and went back to him. She put her sword away and knelt down beside him assessing the damage. She carefully pulled out the dagger and tossed it to the side. She tore off some of her dress and wrapped his wound up. She bit her lower lip wondering if she should bring him back to her home and heal him or leave him there.

[Lady Blackwell]

Max, watched as the woman he saved, had saved him, and then bandaged his wound up, as he drifted of into unconciousness, the last thing he did was, charging his hand with enough mana to numb the area of the wound.

"Max wake up!" a familiar voice said

"Huh?" Max said as he looked around, he was on an open plain of bright green grass about a foot high, and across this plain was Clyde, Smiling and waving.

Max took off to a jog to get to clyde, as it seemed the field just got longer and longer, after a few minutes max hit the ground hard outta breath, staring out over an oceon of green,

"You're in Trouble again Aren't ya?" Clyde said as he sat down beside max.

"I always was in Trouble, and seems like that hasn't changed bout me at all has it?" Max said as he chuckled

"Well there's always hope," Clyde said with his sly little grin

Max couldnt help but laugh

"Well considering how my life had been and still is, it seem's thats the only thing keeping me together."

"Well remember these words and one day they will serve you well, Salva il mio culo ancora una volta" Clyde said slowly and softly with a smug look of amusement on his face.

"Salva il mi ...... wait clyde what does it mean?" Max said as he felt a tug back to reality.

It was black and cold, those were the only things max knew.

Angel finally figured that it would be best if she repaid him by bringing him back to her home and healing him the best she could. She grabbed him and lifted him up and started dragging him to her home.
She looked around making sure no one saw her and brought him inside. She laid the stranger on her couch and quickly closed the door locking it and shutting the blinds to the windows not wanting anyone to see inside.
She grabbed a few herbs and made them into a paste looking back at the man that saved her from being mugged. She became curious as to who he was and why he was there. Angel removed the dressing from the wound and smeared the paste over it chanting a protection spell over him while his wound was healing. "mother earth keep this man from harm. allow him to heal so use your charm." she kept repeating it til she grew tired and weak.
Angel grabbed a blanket from the closet and placed it over him. She went to her room and shut the door still confused as to why he was there and why he saved her. She began disrobing trying to figure it all out. After she disrobed she climed into bed and curled up under the covers drifting off to sleep.

[Lady Blackwell]

Max woke up and it was Dark, he slowly sat up before relizing he was inside someones house. he quickly stood up and spun on his heel while going to draw his swor dbut realized it wasnt there, and his cape wasnt on.

"What the...." Max said as he scanned the room and saw his white cape on the other side of the room, so charging his hand full of mana he walked over to this cape, and slowly picked it up, in underneath was his sword and his sheath.

After he had put all his equipment back on he walked around scanning his surroundings, after a while of scanning he came upon a door that was closed, so before he walked in he bent down to a knee and looked in through the key hole. he say a bed, with a lump in it, it looked almost as if someone was sleeping.

He went to sit down on the couch he woke up on, and started thinking, after awhile he went to a window of the back of the house and looked around, he was on the ground level and could easily climb in and out of this window.

"A Little Breakfast would be nice" Max said as he opened the window and slid out, he knew where a nearby chicken farm was and was going to head there to get what he wanted for breakfast.

At about sunrise he climbed back in through the window and walked to what he assumed was the kitchen and found a flat surface that he could throw ontop of a fire, and started heating the cooking surface, after a few minutes he reached in his satchel and took out the 4 or 5 eggs he had taken from the chicken farm, and cracked them on the cooking surface and started cooking breakfast.

after a few minutes he had a plate and 3 eggs on it and ate 2 as the other plate had 2 on it, he carefully slid his last egg on the plate and walked to the bedroom, and knocked on the door before slowly opening it.

"Breakfast is ready" max said as he showed the plate before himself.

[angelrosebladess]

Smelling food being cooked Angel woke up and looked around her bedroom. She got dressed and heard a knock at the door. She walked over and saw the plate before she saw the man. She smiled and took the plate. "Thank you." She looked at him and then at the wound. "You shouldn't be up at the moment. Your wound is still healing." She walked out of her bedroom causing him to move back into the living room area.

Angel noticed he had put on his weaponry and his cape and sighed. "I guess you're going to be leaving then.. You are all ready to go." She looked down and wondered to herself why she felt so hurt that he was ready to leave. He is, after all, just another stranger, but some how he was different. She couldn't put her finger on it but she knew some how he was different than the rest.

[Lady Blackwell]

Max backed up as she came out.

"I guess you're going to be leaving then.. You are all ready to go." she said as she sighed.

"Nah, i just feel bare without these on me, i sleep, walk, eat, and relax with all of this on, without it i feel like a horse without it's legs." Max said as he got a big smirk on his face as he went to wipe his mouth.

"By the way, i have to repay you for treating this wound of mine, so i won't be leaving tell then." Max said as he turned back at her and smiled while wiping his mouth with a piece of linen on the counter top
