Habit city bar or tavern

Trouble came up on the other side of the man his hands on his blades. "Why hello Blade Master it has been far to long since we last saw each other excuse me for being so brash but unless you came here to take me up on the offer to join me I'm afraid you will have to leave or die. Trouble's face was completely serious he turned to look at the two girls he would deal with them later.

Tibodico's eyes were closed, but that did not dull his senses in anyway. Long time no see. It would appear as though no one collected those bounties yet. Sadly i'm not here for the usual business. His eyes flickered open. It would appear as though i have already risked to much being here. He looked around. Tired. Bored. And still very dangerous.

Trouble looked intrigued. "Yes you have risked all this for a runaway acolyte?" Trouble smiled running his hand through his hair. "Don't tell me you have gone soft Tibodico I can't remember you ever caring about anyone before especially an acolyte is this girl special to you?"

Tibodico Ignore his soft comment. If you must know, i'm collecting a personal bounty. IF she doesn't return with me i'll kill her and Restore my name. This gives me a bad reputation. Tibodico Blinked. Slowly. He was really tired of everyone just coming up and talking to him. She better Start walking, or die, because a fight is about to break out.

Trouble chuckled a bit. "You know old friend one of these days we shall have a real conversation." Trouble turned to look at the young girl. "Well what is it acolyte your teacher has come to collect you will you reward his brave actions or get him killed." Trouble pulled his blade out just a little he knew Tibodico had been approached a number of times tonight so he was in a bad mood if the girl didn't follow him out of here things would get violent.

Maeve looks to trouble and then steps up beside the girl. "Actually, Trouble, I was hoping you would accept myself and this young girl into Bad Habit."She gave Tibodico a cursory glance as she said this, her muscles tensing for a battle.

Arina was surprised. This woman whom she had only just met was protecting her. Why? No one had ever thought she was worth protection before... They had all merely left her to die. She did not object when the woman suggested they both join this man's group. Now, so long as she remained near this woman to repay her kindness, she would be able to fulfill all of her promises.

Niza smirked widely he jumped into the air and a black fog formed around him and when it cleard he was a dragon Breathing a black flame above all ther heads he flew away not to far though he was close enough to attck anyone that he needed to he just flew above their heads in a circle

Tibodico Turned to walk away. You have disappointed me, Ari. That was the first and last time Tibodico had ever called her by her first name. I take my leave now. It would seem as though i have been shamed in my teachings. This Is annoying. And with that, he began to walk down the road. Hands in his pockets. Fearless. If she didn't follow, the next time they meet, she will die. Much to his disproval. It must be done. If he had a choice. Well, things would be different.

Ari clenches her fists and looks after him. She did not wish to let down yet another person. She closes her eyes and bites her lip. She would only be a disappointment to him. That's all she had ever been good for. Her father had told her that was all she would ever be good for. She wanted to prove him wrong.. but with how many times she had failed in doing so, she truly did not believe she would be able to.

Maeve watched the girl. There was something sad about this picture. Maeve then disappeared and reappeared in front of Tibodico. "Give the girl another chance. I know what it is like to feel disappointment, and I also know what it is like to believe oneself is a disappointment." Maeve looks then at the girl. "She is strong. Stronger than I believe myself to be." she then turns her gaze back to Tibo. "But she is also weak. I understand the Silver are a very emotional race, but this girl seems to hardly even show her emotions. That cannot be good for her." No one had ever heard Maeve talk quite so much, nor would they likely ever again here her say so much at one time. With those words she stepped to the side, brushing her hair from her face and looking at the girl.

Ari stiffens slightly as she listens to the woman. No one had ever spoken so openly in defending her. What worth did this woman see in Ari? She simply could not understand it. Ari was weak, and always would be. No matter how hard she trained, she would never be able to prove she was anything but a disappointment. What could she do....

Trouble walked up behind Arina placing his hands on her shoulders with a devilish smile on his face. "Just run along now Tibodico I do not wish for this situation to escalate further. This young lady has made a choice to live amongst us, but if she does decide to change her mind I will accept that as well." Trouble looked at Tibodico warily and whispered in the girls ear. "If I may be completely honest with you young one your place is here with people who understand your pain who understand what its like to be an outcast from society here with us is where you belong we will make you strong we will be your family this is your true home." Trouble pulled his hands off the girls shoulders walking around her looking at Maeve. "I would like you to visit Mr.Lavon inside the palace now please and do not worry I will inform you as soon as possible to the young ladies decision." Trouble directed her towards the palace and sent her on her way and walked behind Tibodico. "I will escort you out of the city friend I know how you hate to walk alone." Trouble smiled looking up at Niza nodding at him to follow.

Tibodico sighed. The choice she makes is her own. I'm not one to pressure......usually. And with that, He continued to leave. Not caring that he was completely open for an attack. It was just like he said. She can do whatever she wants. He was just giving her the 2nd chance to return. That was the only reason he was here.

Ari bites her lip and then nods to herself, her decision made. She then hurried after Tibo. She knew that by following him she was agreeing to whatever punishment was to follow. And she also knew she may not survive that punishment. But if she could, she wanted to try one last time to prove she could earn someone's approval, and she wanted that woman to smile at her, and be proud.

Trouble smiled as he saw the girl run up behind the Blade Master she was either very brave or very stupid either way she was no longer his concern he saw potential in her gifts but now she was useless to him. Trouble smiled at the girl. "I hope you do not come to regret your choice child and remember Bad Habit is always on the lookout for eager young recruits." Trouble continued walking after Tibodico he could kill him right here right now but he still hoped he could make use of the man add him to his personal tool collection. "I hope you to have a save journey back home, oh and Tibodico don't be to harsh on the girl she is just young and confused."

Tibodico waved the man away. I beleive we shall see each other soon..... Trouble. And with that. He left.

Arina followed quickly after her master, glancing towards Trouble once before also leaving.

"Indeed we shall old friend." Trouble smiled and waved at the girl. "Do come back sometime miss Arina." Trouble watched as they left and the undead closing the gates behind them.

Suddenly appering behind Trouble, Ace threw a tracker on the back of Ari unnoticed . "Let me follow them and get more info on the Silvers Trouble. I grow tired of watching over that boy."

Trouble turned and to look at his captain smiling. "Why thank you Ace do get on that." Trouble beckoned the man closer whispering in his ears. "You will make this fast you understand get the info we need then get out, and keep tabs on that girl will you I want her power." Trouble began to walk back to the palace. "Oh and Ace try not to die yes, things are about to get a little crazy ok and I will need my captain."

Maeve frowns and steps in front of Ace. "Allow me. I'll keep tabs on the girl." her gaze narrowed, almost seeming protective. She did not like the idea of this man following that girl. On the one hand, she did not like men at all, on the other, the girl reminded her so much of herself. "If it's information you want, I can get it easier than you."

Trouble turned back looking at the girl. "I thought I told you to go back to the palace you have been here this whole time?" Trouble sighed rubbing his eyes. "You are right though for some reason she trusts you but you are to weak and inexperienced to go to the Imperium and not nearly as good at collecting info as Ace. Trouble smiled and turned to Ace. "Lavon miss Maeve shall accompany you alright you will now act as her teacher this mission will decide wether or not she has what it takes to be an official Bad Habit member." Trouble walked over to the girl placing his hand on her shoulder like a father does to his child. "From now on you will do exactly what Mr.Stipe says ok, I want you to get close to the girl and tell me everything you find out." Troubles grip changed from a nice warming to touch to a squeezing grasp. "But you will do well to remember which side your on you will make the girl get close to you but you will not get close to the girl if you turn on me know this I can chase you to the ends of the world and into the abyss." Trouble stepped back offering her a reassuring smile before heading off to the palace.
