((On a side note, could everyone post their defense every time they attack, as well as their offense? It makes it a lot easier. Then I don't have to go look up everyone's stats all the time. xP))

There were many places to hide among the ruins of the once-great fortress. And that could work in their favor. But even if they were able to get in without being seen-slim of a chance that was-AA and Kiria might not be able to get to them. Ah, what was she saying? It was the AA she was talking about. Legretta's voice pulled Cat from her train of thought. Cat smirked for a moment before putting on a false pout and sticking her tongue out at Legretta. She turned to look back at Ari and Skaro and nodded to them. She slipped her hand around her sythe, drawing it without the usual shing sound. She positioned herself slightly different, so she could dash right to the nearest cover. It would be a matter of concealing themselves so the watchmen in the towers didn't see them. They just had to move when the watchmen weren't looking. And go one at a time. Almost in inaudibly, she dared to whisper to the others, "Follow my lead. One at a time." And with that, she dashed at fast as she could to a low-set wall. Once she made it there, she flopped onto her stomach and crawled to the end of the wall, and peeked her head around the edge to see if the watchman was looking. He wasn't. She sprinted a few feet to a series of six pillars, and ducked behind the first one. The watchman was looking... And now he wasn't! She dashed to the next pillar and ducked behind it. Looking back, she saw that Legretta had already finished the low-set wall and was dashing for the first pillar, and Ari was running for the wall. Good thing Skaro was last. He could keep an eye on Ari. She needed it.

"Tch!" Legretta muttered in annoyance while taking aim at the watchman above. Skaro had disappeared to heaven knew where- not that she really cared. '200 yards, clear shot.' Legretta pulled the trigger and watched the bandit fall. She had clicked a silencer on her pistols, so as not to draw attention to their invasion. She looked back down at the pink-haired girl. "Arietta!" She hissed, "Move!" She turned and ran to hide behind the next pillar, making sure that Arietta followed. Though Cat was nowhere in sight. Just perfect. "Not my day, is it..."

Respect lowers a wheel barrel full of new bricks and mortar in front of a beat up corner of a wall and stands still for a moment, staring at the corner. "Stupid wall... I hate you... Making me fix you..." Respect faintly mutters as he began to pick new bricks and attempts to repair the wall. Just as Respect picks up the first brick, he hears a loud 'BANG' down the corner hallway followed by the sound of falling bricks, also resulting the brick in Respect’s grip to fall out as he leaps back in shock. The brick conveniently falls onto his left foot and he tries to hold back the pain by grasping his foot with one hand and biting the other. A few seconds later after the incident, a girl sprints down the hallway perpendicular to Respect and she was being followed by a group fellow bandits running after her. Respect seized hopping up and down in pain, pauses for a second, then runs after the girl in a different direction, abandoning his brick project. He catches up to the girl after running though countless hallways and rooms, grabs her arm just as she turns into a new room and swings her in a nearby closet and slams the door shut. Just then the bandits run into the room and finds Respect alone. “WERE IS SHE?!?” yelled one of the bandits to Respect. He in return thinks for a moment and aimlessly points into a random false direction without saying a word. They all stood there for a moment, all staring at one another. Respect began to worry that the bandits would find out that he hid her but stupid as they are ran in the direction that he pointed out. Respect waited for a moment, signed in great relief, and opened the door to the closet to find the girl collapsed on the floor with her foot in a bucket and a mop on her head, followed by the mess of other fallen cleaning supplies. Not caring, he quickly and quietly questions her, “Who are you, why are you here, are there more of you around here…?”

At first Respect gave no response or movement. However, a half minute later or so, Respect slowly turned to his side and grabbed hold of a conveniently place chair next to him, got up and sat in it, hunched over. He poked his cheek a couple of times which swelled up a bit, dropped his hand onto his leg and immediately raised his head and looked at Cat. “I was trying to help… Of course…” Said Respect and turned his head to the direction where the guards ran of to “…I could send the guards back if you want?...”

The straight path becomes curved
With but a single touch
the figure of Adun ran silently through the woods, small bursts of dark energy at his feet the concealed sound of running. He reached the hold and scanned for his team. Not seeing them, he closed his eyes and looking into the hold for bandits he could get rid of before taking out the leader. 2 in mind, adun vanished, concealing himself in a shroud of black energy. Moving quickly, he entered the hold and took some sharp turns. A wave of his hand dissipated the shroud and allowed the bandits to gaze upon him. They leapt at him, just what he wanted. Chords of energy wrapped around his hand, which had shot up, and launched themselves around the bandits throats. A snap told Adun they were dead to which he expanded the chords until they enveloped both bandits. After a moment of waiting, a hissing was heard and the chords returned to his arm and dissipated. The remains of the bandits or lack there of would not be identifiable as killed by Adun. He ran on, sensing where his team was supposed to be.

((I'm waiting for Respect to post... How long do you think it will take for Legret to notice what I did to her avi once she logs on? >3))
