Soldiers of Liberty

[Mercury the Dragon]

(Pausing on other characters except Blain and Jamie starting this point)

Blain walked in sizing up the room, having a strong stance he touched Jamie's hand slightly to let her know he was there and at attention. Noticing the staring eyes first he could see who the general was from a mile away. Having a certain domineer he takes a deep breath "Don't think I ever had a fancy dinner like this... kind of intimidating." Blain thinks to himself as Claudius walked up he nodded to him in return. "Its a pleasure sir." noticing how he looked at Jamie he returned the gaze on Jamie as he only smiled at her.

Looking at the tray of food and wine Blain, held the glass to his lips as he smelled it closing his eyes briefly he takes a sip only enough to get the taste. Turning down the first tray of food he sits at the table with Jamie "Mushrooms..." Remembering as Jamie said it he kept his eyes on Caligula like a hawk. Keeping in mind of all the things he was eating.

Getting around the room, Blain held his glass of wine taking brief sips of it. Keeping his eyes on Caligula he wasn't into much of talking with people as he only stood near the balcony of the room. Looking in at all the people noticing Agrippina headed his direction he takes a deep breath as he thinks to himself "Here comes, medusa on the prowl..." Blain takes another sip of the wine and gazes over to Jamie then back to Agrippina watching her as she got closer. Before he had a chance to speak she walked as he followed behind noticing Agrippina trying to seduce him he kept his hands at his side "Yes, that is a good thing as we would be of great benefit to the royal guard." Thinking for a moment "We have dealt with assassins with much greater weapons and skill that you can image im sure we can handle ourselves." Looking into her eyes he smiled "you say she would be safe with your brother... I rather she remains close to me."

Looking to Jamie he walked up to her touching her cheek "calm down, don't worry now. Im just glad you didn't kill him..." Looking back to the commotion "So I could do it" Blain kept his eyes on the commotion behind them then looks at Jamie "These people act on what they want most, dealing with that woman isn't helping either."

(OH btw the colony in the future is in Zion, and you are right its underwater as for the sub, Himeko uses the sub to get to Zion to restore it and get it working so... yeah that sub might not be intact)

[Iria33]

Jamie looked up to him, and nodded. "Yeah. That might of been better if I had, but I don't think in the end it would help us save Caligula. Granted, I might of sped things up on our end." Jamie turned to see Agrippia's retreating form, and shook her head. The food was going to be served, "What did the b***h want?" Jamie said with a sneer, but regained control. Jamie then turned to face Blain, and she shook her head. "I don't think I have ever been so jealous before."

Jamie felt a chill, and wondered what the hell was going on, and how the hell they were going to be able to change the future, oh and survive threw the night. Flexing her fist, she looked down at it. She watched as the patches of skin knitted together. "Imagine what our being here will be like if we teach them to wash their hands before eating. Heck the Romans were the first to have plumbing." She snickered, as she started to tell him what had happened. "Marcus over there were having a very interesting conversation, until Claudius walked up and stepped into our space. I should of known better then to walk from the area. Those guards did not know what to do. I guess they are not that bad. One of them chuckled as Claudius clutched his nose. I know I broke it."

Jamie let her fist drop, and she looked to see two of the guards had stationed themselves close by, and one of them was from the other room. He nodded his head to Blain, and gave him a smirk showing he was impressed. At least they had a few people on their side. Jamie turned to see the guard feeling someone watching them, and nodded her thanks, when the guard should of intervened and detained Jamie, he knew Jamie was in the right. It would be interesting to see how things would play out.

He then turned his attention to the party, and looked back to Blain. Someone was on their way into the room. The commotion in the other room was starting to grow, however, it was clear things were starting to side for Jamie, and Blain for once.

Guardian Nuregami

That works, we can quote each other it will as you say, help speed things up. Oh and Caligula will get poisoned soon, but it will be something Jamie can counter act. It will not be on mushrooms, and during the time of his sickness we will have to flee the city because Claudius will want to over throw him. We will have an epic battle, and I have plans to capture Blain, and have Jamie come to his aid. It will be fun.. twisted

[Mercury the Dragon]

Blain looks at Agrippina retreating then looks to Jamie "Oh you know, my muscles this chiseled chin the same old." Blain smirks looking at Jamie, touching both of her cheeks he looks her in the eyes "Don't worry about it, cant say I don't like seeing that side of you." Blain looks around "Well, lets just do whatever we have to do before the fall of Rome, don't wanna be here when they invade burn the place down leaving no trace of this great city."

Blain chuckled looking at Claudius "Good job by the way, had it been me I would of broke his arm. But being cautious of the future and what changes we might do for the worse I guess its better to go for the nose than the arm." Looking at the guards he released a held breath "Least were getting those allies we needed, but wonder if they would defend us if they needed to."

Blain takes Jamies hand as he looks at her "So... back to the party cause it looks like its getting interesting finally.. or should we just enjoy our time without stalkers and let them find us after they realize where gone." Blain smirked. "By the way... that women said we might have assassins course we knew that already. But saying that out of the blue proves someone has something to hide let it be her or her broken nose brother.

Iria33

Always wondered how they did that spoiler thing lol and have Blain captured.... Blain.... captured... that's uh new xD no one ever got Blain off his guard cant wait to see how you do it ninja

[Iria33]

Jamie nodded, and once the word Assassin she looked up to him. "Yes this is true, it's the place where they were used regularly. I wonder how things will go down when he shows up." She said and smirked as he mentioned how they could just blow the party off, but then how would that look? "As much as your offer is tempting, I think we should return. Too many questions will be raise, and I have to show that I am not really affected by 'Mr. Needs to Keep hands to himself.' guy." Jamie snickered, and the guard walked back into the shadows again as they approached the remaining party.

Caligula waked up. He eyed Jamie, but remained neutral. "It seems that you are learning how to make friends around here." He said but did not indicate his unsaid meaning. "He is dangerous, and has a number of people who follow him. Next time be more settle about how you tell him off." He said, but then his face turned changed into one that was more welcoming. "Come. It is time to eat. Though my uncle will not be attending, I am sure we will be able to entertain ourselves without him." He said and walked over to the area they were going to eat.

The dinner went without hitches, and everyone seemed to be happy. Jamie drank a bit more, but did not over indulge. She had made good conversation with those around her, and Blain was often asked about how combat worked, or what his lands way of war. They were not told that they were from the future, but they knew they were not from around here.

With the dinner over, Jamie and Blain were escorted to another part of the Palace, it was more of a solitary room, and it had a lovely view over the city. The room itself had three windows, one was actually a sky light type window. Jamie looked out at the view, and leaned against the window. She pulled her hands around her abdomen, but she was not really that cold. She then turned to watch Blain. They had been alone together in the past, but nothing like this. Her soft skin shown in the moonlight, and the warm breeze pushed the loose strands of hair across her face.

Guardian Nuregami

Yeah it will be fun, and I have only used the 'Spoiler' thing a few times. I think it cleans up a page don't you think. BTW what do you think of my new picture of Jamie?

[Mercury the Dragon]

Blain nods in return "True, but if he tries it again just say. Oh, see the guy I came with he be delighted to put your head on a pike and offer it up to hades as tribute." "Or something like that." Blain smirks as Caligula came over he looks at him as he kept a natural face. "Yeah, perhaps I can actually eat something this time." Blain looks up at the sky as he noticed the strange lack of sound. To him Rome was quiet thought the sound of people didn't change that fact. No guns, no planes, tanks anything he is familiar with. Tapping the side of his head lightly he felt different. Like coming off a drug not being around an area he was born into. "ugh... this is just wearing me out. Not sure if its that portal or what..." Regaining some of his composer

Getting back to the dinner Blain finally joined in talking with the general some of the soldiers, he was interested in their politics and what was different from the way things are in the future. Not drinking as much but eating enough of his share Blain relaxed a bit more. When the dinner was over Blain followed to the solitary room as he looks around keeping in mind of all the escape points and how far they were from the ground incase he had to jump. He just takes a deep breath and tries to settle the soldier mind. Leaning against the balcony he looks out to the city, being very different than what he was use to he just couldn't get the grip on things although he held it together as best as he could

Looking over to Jamie as he felt he was being watched he noticed her looking at him as he gave her a smile, making his way over he leans next to the window near her as he brushed the hair out of her face. "Hi... come here often?" Blain said with a smile Jamie looked different, very different the lack of sounds and a familiar background got him more tuned to who Jamie was to him personally thinking to himself that it was indeed a new start, there was no one shooting at them...yet just looking into her eyes the wind blew as even with all this training a blush came to his face "you look beautiful Jamie." Rubbing his thumb against her cheek he kept his eyes on her

Iria33

Like the picture think that's what Jamie would really look like honestly. and yeah it does clean up a page nicely from that access pictures or whatever ya want

[Iria33]

Jamie herself blushed, but the moonlight was hiding it from each other, though she as sure he could feel her cheeks heating up. So Jamie leaned in, and kissed him softly at first on the lips, then the kiss deepened. Soon they were both nude, and had moved towards the bed.

-Time Skip-

Jamie was sleeping more soundly then she had in a year. It was one of the first nights that her nightmares from the past did not come to haunt her. The other fact was from their travels. Her body was beyond tired, but years of training kept her moving however, what Blain and her Shared sent her nearly into a coma like state. She trusted Blain, and she was also falling more deeply in love with him by the moment.

A small creek announced the presence of someone. The predawn light trickled threw the other window, and it would soon wake those within the bed that lay together in a loving embrace. Jamie did not wake, and it seemed she could sleep threw WWIII at this point, so the noise was just faint enough to go unnoticed by her ear. However, there was more then one, and it seemed things were about to get interesting.

The first assassin attacked sending a single arrow towards Blain, and the second assassin took aim at Jamie and fired. The third assassin hopped down from the window, and sung a Gladicus at where Blain should be.

Guardian Nuregami

We can do a time skip until the attack in the early morning. Sorry for the short post. I figured that we could go right into this first fight

[Mercury the Dragon]

Blain snored lightly with his arm behind Jamie's head. Opening his eyes slightly by the light of the morning he yawns looking over to Jamie who was still sound asleep he smiled finally finding someone he can call home with no matter where they were. He gently moved his arm from behind her head as he leans on the edge of the bed, cracking his neck. He takes a deep breath waking himself up slowly. With the second creek of noise Blain's ears twitch as his paranoid senses woke up before he had a chance to fully awake. Ducking down as an arrow whooshed by hitting into the wall. Blain reached under his pillow holding the dagger as he held it ready. Seeing the assassins with a gun like weapon he glared "Like hell you are." Diving into the bed he grabbed Jamie as they both rolled onto the floor. Getting up quickly he gazed around the room

Iria33

That's alright, cant always be a large long post need some short fillers also lol

[Iria33]

The arrow misses, but only just. Jamie, and Blain tumbled from the bed, and only then did Jamie awake with a start. She held her hands upon his chest, and fear and panic hit her eyes, however it was short lived. She saw the anger in his eyes, and determination, but it was clearly not directed at her, as she watched an assassin approach them from where she lay. Blain stood, and Jamie crouched low and reached to the night stand to retrieve her side arm. However she had to retreat back from the man who wielded the sword and only then did she realize they both were nude. However in the moment it really did not matter.

He thrust forward, only missing her soft flesh by mere inches, and he sliced sideways to make up for it. She reached over for the sheet, and pulled it free from the bed and the assassin with the sword smiled threw the morning light. "How many?" She asked not knowing of the two others, one was reloading, the other was approaching Blain drawing his gladicus as well.

"Should we leave them alive to question them or leave them as examples?" She asked in the language they would understand. The one facing her was skilled but she was quicker when it came to her movements. Jamie threw the sheet in such a way that it billowed out like a net, and as he sliced to get free of it's cover, Jamie rolled to the night stand and retired her side arm. Blain was as deadly with his knife as she was with a gun so she was not too concerned. Jamie rose and started to point her weapon at the assassin who had just freed himself from the sheet. She had just caught sight of the third one reloading, and he was pointing his weapon at Blain.

The assassin sneaking up on Blain was also skilled. Whoever sent them knew that Blain was very dangerous. He also drew a small dagger as well, it looked to be used for just puncture wounds, ones that were deep, and could do a lot of damage. These men also had a strange saphron smell to them.

As the third assassin took aim at Blain the second facing Jamie charged, and swung his sword in a deadly arch, Jamie fired twice quickly, but the missile from the crossbow shot free, however it had a chance of missing due to the shooter being shot, and her aim was true. She killed the assassin before he hit the floor. Jamie's second shot hit the other man dead center in the chest, but that did not stop him from completing his arch, and Jamie felt a sting along her shoulder as the man fell forward and on top of her. She shot him once more as they fell to the ground, and she was not prone, but her attacker was dead. She could hear rushed foot steps heading in their direction. But Blain had plenty of time to deal with his assassin.

"Judging that one took a shot at you, another took a shot at me and this one with the sword I would say three that I know of." Blain flips his knife as he held it to the back of his hand as he gets low to the ground as he notices the glint of the gladicus as he dodges, noticing Jamie tossing the cover it caught his attention briefly as the assassins also looked at the direction of the cover taking the opportunity he stabs the assassin in the back where his liver would be grabbing ahold of the assassins neck and using force pushing the blade forward and up he tosses the assassin into the wall.

Focusing his attention now on the assassin with the dagger he smiled, a flashback occurred within his mind with him facing Jack at a younger age daggers only it was only childs training. As the assassin gets low holding nearly the same stance as Blain he spoke in a language the assassin could understand. "Pray to God before you meet him." The assassin glared at Blain rushing at him swinging his dagger straight moving it upwards then spinning around in a circular motion in one fluid motion. Blain counter acts getting low from the straight attack sliding to the side from the upwards attack and dropping down low swinging his foot in an arch as the assassins spins Blains leg travels stopping the assassin in mid-spin making him stumble landing on the nightstand sending a bottle of wine onto the floor

Blain rushes grabbing the feet of the assassin and spinning as fast as he could as the assassin looks at him spinning quickly Blain legs of the assassin sending him into the wall. Getting back to his feet the assassin was now unarmed having lost his dagger in mid throw. His eyes gaze around noticing it under the table as he looks to Blain. "Be man or beast all things that bleed can die." Blain kept his eyes on the assassin as he drops his knife challenging the assassin to one on one unarmed combat cracking his knuckles the assassin rushed him as Blain quickly grabs the assassins legs flipping him, using a wrestling type move he quickly grabs the assassin by the neck putting him in a chock hold as he tightens his grip, the assassin grabs onto Blains arm as he tries to pull free. Losing air quickly Blain spoke "Yeah... I don't want you dead... just yet." The assassin passes out as his arms go limb, letting go of the assassin, he grabs whatever he could find tying the assassins arms and legs together tightly as he looks over to Jamie. "Wouldn't be worth anything If we killed all of them."

Iria33

[Iria33]

"Agreed." Jamie said threw her teeth. Jamie grunted as the guards rushed in. Torches, shadowed the walls, and even as there was enough moon light that was showing threw, there were three total bodies, and one of which was being tied up by Blain. Jamie lowered her weapon at the approaching guards, and only then did she realize they were both naked, and she was bleeding. She, with help of one of the guards rolled the dead assassin from her, and he lowered his cloak to cover her modesty. They looked at the Gun in her hand, and the dead guard. He nodded, and offered her his hand, which she Did Not take. The blood was now starting to drip upon the ground, but it was starting to slow due to their new healing they both possessed.

"We will have our dungeon master deal with this one. He will be made an example of." Said the head guard, looking at the scene before him. The rest of the room was being lit with torch light, and she looked at their bed. Two arrows were right where they had just been sleeping, and Jamie shook her head. "Thanks Blain." She said with a slight raised eyebrow. Jamie pointed to her shirt, and the man next to her handed it to her. She pulled it over, and the pulled on a pair of running shorts that Mi had been so kind to pack for them. She walked over to Blain, as she handed the Centron back his cloak, and the bleeding on her shoulder was slowing down to nothing now.

"Don't kill him yet, we will find out a few things first. Bind and Gag him. Check his mouth for anything that will kill him if he so chose to take his own life." She then handed Blain a pair of shorts, and started to check him out for injury. She felt like a fool for sleeping so deeply. Jamie knew they had a hit on their heads, but she got too wrapped up with Blain and let her worries fade away. "I was not awake. Thanks for what you did. You scared the crap out of me." She said, and leaned her head into his chest. "We will bring you some water, and a healer to help with your wounds." Jamie shook her head, she could work circles around their best healer, and still have room to work. "I will be fine. Water will be good to have to clean up." She said, and looked down at her own wound. "Dammit." She said, and one of the guards left them however three remained, and two where dealing with the would be assassin.

"Did you happen to smell them?" She said, remembering the smell they had about them. "Anything in your training say something about Assassins that smell of Saphron? That was very old fashioned. Perhaps a calling card of sorts?" Jamie said to Blain in English. Soon the man with the hot water, and rags showed up along with a healer. He demanded on seeing the wound, and when he approached her, Jamie shook her head. She held the wound with her hand, but was not sure if he should know about their healing? "It's not as bad as it looks. I will see to my own injuries, along with whatever Blain has. Which he seems to of gotten off unscathed." She said and shook her head.

"You will let him check you out for poison. These assassins are known for such things, though mainly only on their bolts." It was Caligula, and Jamie turned to face him. He was in a robe that was made of a fine silk. It went to the floor, and it was royal purple. "That is an order." He ended and walked up to Blain. He extended his hand to Blain, and would grasp him by the forearm in greeting. "I take it you have been making friends." He said with a bit of a smirk. The healer approached Jamie, and asked her to sit on the couch like sofa near the bed.

Jamie showed him the laceration, and she hoped that her body was not too quick to heal at this point, but the look of astonishment confirmed her suspicions. He looked at her, then to Blain, and she shrugged. However, the man did not mention anything aloud to Caligula about her rapid healing, and went to cleaning the wound. Caligula gestured Blain to follow him. Jamie nodded to him, knowing she would have to talk to the healer about what was going on with her body. "My guards will make sure she remains safe, but I dough that she will even need their help. Something tells me that she can take care of herself, but please. Come, and tell me what happened? I would like to find out who attacked my guests as much as my guests want that information as well."

He lead them into another room, this one was being set up for breakfast, the sun was starting to finally change the color of the sky to hues of blue and purple were changing into yellow. He picked up a vine of grapes, and went to sit.

Blain watched as the guards came in with their torches, putting back some of his clothes on, he places a coat on looking over to Jamie, with the glint of the fire the blood around gave a grim look as he sighed. Turning his attention on the assassin then back to Jamie he nods "Don't have to thank me. Like I could let you get hurt if I could stop it in anyway possible." As she leans on his chest he paused for a moment and placed an arm around her "Like I said... couldn't let you get hurt. Took years to develop my paranoia and its not something I can get rid of... especially now." Looking to the assassin as Jamie mentioned the scent he nods "No, that's new to me but if anything I had to guess..." Speaking in English so the guards wouldn't hear what he was saying "Agrippina... like playing poker, she reveals her hand before its dealt onto the table."

Blain smirked to Caligula in the greeting "Always, no better way than a nice wake up call to keep you on your feet." Blain looks to Jamie as the healer approached her "Now you know how it feels to have a persistent healer coming after you for every cut and bruise" Blain chuckled and winks at Jamie as he followed Caligula, but not before grabbing his knife off the ground and putting it away into his coat he had on. Blain looked to Caligula as he spoke "Far as I could tell, they were skilled but my only question is how did you get here so fast seems the attack only happened about ten minutes ago. And if they were after us then perhaps there are more around this place." Stopping in his tracks he kept his eyes on Caligula "wouldn't you agree, anyone could be an assassin." looking to the grape vine the last thing Blain had on his mind was food.

[Iria33]

Jamie gave him a look, but allowed the healer to tend to her wounds none the less. She gave some thought to what Blain said, and gave him a nod in the end. Jamie however, wondered why she would do such a thing, if she thought of Blain as something to possess? When the healer was done, Jamie policed the dead, and found a coin purse, but the guard took it from her. "Sometimes they are tampered with or poisoned if opened wrong." He set it upon the table, and he admired the work the two strangers had done to their would be assassins. "How is it that you are a woman, yet you have skill that suggests that you are a warrior?" He asked, and Jamie let in a deep breath. "Where I am from, women are treated differently, even though we are not as commonly found in the military, we have our purposes." She took her pack out, and handed the healer over the wraps and bandages. "Use those."

She remembered her first missions, or deployments that her fellow Army Rangers had faced. How she was one of the only survivors of her unit, and how that affected her. They were on recon, and they were lead into a trap by a person who had little choice. His family was being held, and even though he did what he was ordered, they were still killed to prove a point. Jamie remembered his pleas, and the cries of his children as they were killed before their eyes. The guard could see the distant look. "I know that look. You have seen battle." He said, and eyed her. Jamie nodded, and shook her head. "The past is where it needs to be, it can do nothing but teach us to do better next time. Yes. I have seen combat, I am a doctor or healer where I am from. I am also a General, but that is neither here nor there. Everything has changed."

Caligula looked to him. "When I got word of your attack, I was already awake. I had been for about an hour, dealing with the notion that you will be attacked, and I was aware of it. However, we were ready to pounce on the attackers, but it seems that you and Jamie were able to deal with your attackers. I may of used you as bate, but it seems that Agrippina was aware of the impending attack because she has sources. I hate that she was injured, but we have a living member of his guild, and we have to keep watch over him. I am sure we will not get anything from him, but we might be able to use him as bate but in a different way. We both know that he will not survive the encounter."

Caligula watched the look that Blain gave the grape. He chuckled. "You are a paranoid one. Life in Rome is filled with death, and intrigue. We kill each other all the time, and there is no way to stop it. I am in a position that will bring that kind of attention, my uncle wants my seat, though he hate at my table last night. He is trying to stir the people and it seems that he is making head way. However. I cannot let my paranoia starve me to death, either way they will get what they want. Me dead, but I can always have precautions set up that will insure that I am not poisoned." He said, and popped the grape into his mouth.

Jamie entered the room at this point. Her T-Shirt hugged her curves, and the running shorts showed off her scarred knee. She had on her running shoes. "Mi." She said, and smirked. "Fancy a Run Blain. I need to get out and move around if we are allowed." She said, and Caligula turned to face Jamie. Her bandaging was noticeable, and it wrapped around her arm. "Yes I feel that it would let them know that you are not exactly easy to kill nor are you afraid of what they sent after you. Please. Enjoy your outing, just keep yourself safe. I have plans for you both." He said.

[Mercury the Dragon]

Blain nods to Caligula as he takes a grape eating it walking over to him he spoke "True, but being a warrior and someone in a high position are two different things especially if your there to protect someone else. Imagine being at that table again and its not you they want dead but someone you care about to get at you. To weaken you, a man who has nothing to lose is a dangerous weapon. This is the time I come from, attacking Jamie is the worse thing they could of done for themselves." keeping his eyes on Caligula he spoke with a serious tone as his intent behind it was certain "If they do it again, their wont be much left for you to torture or bury, you can be certain of that.

Sitting at the table with a bowl of grapes and a bottle of wine stood he leans forward to Caligula "We can either try our hand at getting information but will be a waste of time, so bait it would have to be. With all due respect if Agrippina has so many sources and knew of the attack why not set a trap instead to catch all three or use decoys instead perhaps. We could act like we were dead and blend in more perhaps catch our enemies off guard. Nothing better than someone thinking they won right."

As Jamie entered the room, Blain gazed back slightly before noticing it was her turning his head he watched her walk over as he looked at her up and down. "Going to run a marathon hun?" Chuckling he stands to his feet wrapping his arms around her he kissed her lips "Just give me a minute ill go change myself" Heading to the backroom and coming back a few minutes later, Blain walks out in a more Russian type uniform as he looks at it. "...Mi..." The uniform was fitting his sleeves where cut to show his arm muscles, having heavy boots on, with knife attachments on the sides he placed on his gloves and checks his hidden weapons. Looking over to Jamie he walked over looking more like the Russian version of a navy seal he tilts his hat to her as there was a red star upon the front. "Atleast she knows I like practical to casual wear..." Walking beside her he reached brushing a strand of hair out of her face "Ready to go then?" A breeze blew in as Blain looked it was a nice morning the people had only began to get started with their day.

Iria33

You post at some interesting times, couldn't sleep could ya

[Iria33]

Caligula listened to what Blain had to say. He did not miss the phrase 'Time' that he used, but remained unphased by what he had to say. Though his protective nature over Jamie was interesting. When he brought up Agrippina, Caligula smirked slightly and nodded. "We let things go as they had for several reasons." He took a sip of wine. "One being we wanted the person to make his move, and second was for my benefit. I wanted to see the results of your skills. Sure your weapons are advanced, and it takes skill to do as you have shown, but you cannot rely on your weapons alone. It takes skill to do what you two had done. I am considering calling you two my secret weapons. You are an unknown, and that is a powerful weapon. However, I cannot allow you to fall into my enemies hands. They will try now to take you alive, so be ready."

Jamie walked in as Blain mentioned the idea of playing dead, and seeing who comes poking around. She smirked and shook her head. Blain was a master at his own faked death, remembering when several times she thought him dead and he resurface at optimal times. "Oh most defiantly, and I want to take a look around the city. Besides. When was the last time I ran without pain." She said and gestured to her bad leg. He walked up and kissed, her and it felt more then just natural, she gave him a smile as he pulled away. As Blain vanished to change, Jamie took a moment to speak to Caligula regarding the attack. The blush on her cheek from the kiss made Caligula smirk. "It seems this is new to you?" He asked as Blain made his way back.

"You could say that. It's been a long tie coming I assure you." She said, and shook her head at him. He looked even more imposing then before. Caligula was impressed, but he glanced over to one of the guards. "Go ready yourself for a run, stay armed, and ready, but I want you with them for now." The guard pounded his fist to his chest, and backed a few steps before doing as he was ordered. "Before it was to keep an eye on you, now it is to insure your safety. If you have a guard on you, it could send mix signals, either you are still being watched, or that you are week. It also shows that you are important. So that could work against us, but it is better to have safety in numbers at times."

The Praetorian guard appeared he was wearing a short toga that seemed to be his garb under his armor, and his Roman style sword at his hip. "How about a mile warm up then we stretch." Her hand went to the small of her back where her own knife lay. Being in the Army Rangers taught her plenty of things. One was that she was nearly as good with a knife as Blain, though her shooting was only half that when it came to rifles. She was also good at being quite on her feet, though years being a doctor, and general has taken a small toll on such skills. But they would come back like riding a bike. Knowing this, she knew she had to get into 'Fighting' level in order to do so. A little and other workouts would suffice. "Did you want to spar later?" She said, with a smirk.

They started at an easy gate. The Praetorian was keeping up, and even seemed to be pretty smug about how easy it was. But this was just a typical warm up. Jamie kept time with her watch, and brought them to a stop judging the distance they had gone. They were close to a market district, and people were starting to filter out into the streets for the sell of their wares. She started stretching, and actually taking sniffs to the air. She was looking for that saphron smell. Using Blain for balance, she had been compensating for so long with the other leg, that it was going to be an interesting road.

As they ran threw the streets, people were eying them, and as Jamie and her pony tail bounce threw they parted like the red sea. At first they gocked at a woman dressed as her, but when they took notice of Blain, they backed off. He was an imposing character, even the Praetorian was ignored.

Blain nods to Jamie's comment "You can say that again... most people say they work hard for their relationship we can say we walked through hell, stayed at the hotel and came out fighting only to still be alive." Looking to Jamie then back to Caligula as the guard came out he looks at the uniform "Hard to believe that protects you now a days, what is it now the beginning years of iron ah I forget." Stretching his arms his bones cracked as he looks over to Jamie "Sure fine by me" Not much of the stamina type he was able to keep his own, being mostly Russian military training always dealt with pain and pushing the limits of the body to break the spirit. Looking out to where they would be heading. Blain narrows his eyes looking into the distance. "Wonder what Jack and the others are doing right now..."

Hearing Jamie's question "Sure, don't see why not suppose we have to brush up on her hand to hand combat." As they ran Blain kept an eye out as he noticed people watching from the buildings finally getting to the market district he looks into the thick of the crowd as within he saw someone standing in the mist of it all. With reddish brown eyes staring from a distance, as someone passes in front of the hooded person they were gone in a flash. "Keep a look out around here, this is the best place to be ambushed in the crowd. As they ran through the crowd Blain kept an eye out as the crowd move pacing his breath as he ran he looks over to Jamie then up. "Nice day isn't it?" Within the crowd of people where four members of the guild as their eyes followed Jamie, Blain and the guard plotting out where they were headed they stayed hidden in the shadows.
