Vega saw her sorrowful look, and frowned himself. He then sighed.
"This is going to cost me the journey, but oh well."
He placed a hand on her shoulder, and cocked his head towards another direction.
"I'll help you look."

A man passed by the group. He wasn't hoping to be noticed, to be honest, he didn't want to...he would be leaving.
Having arrived in Lament some time ago, Shin had had his ups and downs...but it was pretty uneventful. He decided that it would be best if he left this city and looked around for someplace else to spend his time. Who knows, perhaps he would return to this city eventually, but right now, he had to get out and explore another area.
-------
"A train ticket please..."
"Certainly..."
He paid the man at the station and boarded the train leaving Lament. To what destination, that was undecided at this time. He sat down next to a man wearing white on the train. This man had a white band accross his eyes, like a headband lowered to far down. Shin almost said something but decided against it, instead he turned to face forward, letting out a sigh as he sat there.
The man next to Shin only smiled. Unmoving, he spoke words as if he knew what Shin was thinking.
"This band? I'm blind..."
This man, was Kuro.

Looking to Vega, shadow's eyes search his before she responds. "No, really, I'll be alright, but I just don't know where to go from here.." smiling up at him, she hugs him briefly, her small arms wrapping around his torso and slipping off ever so gently as she pulls away. "We all came here for something, I to run, you to find, and he to remember.. I can't hold you back.." She smiles once again, her face full of emotion that she didn't even try to hold in

"I'm in no rush, and finding one person out of the countless population of this world will not be easy. Perhaps he still is here afterall."
He smiled, as he felt such a warm hug after a long absence of the feeling of trust and loyalty.
"I wouldn't mind sidetracking."

Braiddan finally snapped out of his trance and looked over to Shadow and Vega. He heard only a few bits and pieces on the conversation as he walked bak over to them.
"Mind if I tag along? Finding out my own brother killed me is enough memory for me. "

Quote: Luckly the guard was in arms reach of the pathetic woman. He stopped her from falling to the ground and effortessly picked her up; two other guards joined his side and they headed into the city. - Enters City from North gate of Mithral Mountains -
::Kaym opened her eyes to a rugged low flowing ceiling. The dark brown colored wood smelt musty and humid, but still possessed a conforting warmth. Even so, the slum home was much better then a cold rock.
:She sat up, Immediately placing her hand on her rib cage, expecting to find the granite spear. It was gone, and replacing her shirt was a thick strip of gauze covering her bust and wound. The other wounds on her arms and forehead had also been covered by small patches of tape and material as if looking like a half-a** wrapped mummy.
"Ohh... So you aren't dead..." Said a very slow and timid voice.
:Kaym turned her head to her right, to none other then an older woman, looking around the age of sixty.
"I didnt think you would wake up so soon." She claimed, slowly sipping the warm beverage in her hand.
:Without answering right away, kaym shifted her body, removing the blanket from her lap, her feet touched the floor. Her boots had been placed at the foot end of the small bed. She slipped both of her feet in them and stood up.
"How long was I asleep?" She curiously asked, stepping over to the table and sitting in the only available chair.
"Oh... You were brought in by one of the city guard, no more then a day ago... I patched ya' up best as I could." She smiled and sipped her tea once again.
It kind of came to a surprise to her. She figured she would have been thrown in a cell or something alittle more brutal. Immediate care wasnt a luxury she experienced very much... She didnt know what to say, on how she could show gratitude.
Kaym unassertively smiled. "I dont know how to thank you. I can pay you for your assistance."
"Ohh.. pish-posh... money's hard to come by." She waved her hand in a silly manner. "How are your hands by the way. It was stuck to your sword. The kind city guard helped me pull it off your hand. We were surprised you had a hand left... it was melted to the very bone!..." Motioning her sight towards Kayms hands.
She hadnt even noticed. Looking to them she noticed her right hand was completely encompassed in bandages, and even though it was layered thick, she could still see a dark tint of blood that had soaked through many of the layers. The other only possessed single band-aids around her fingers.
"It feels alright." She answered, placing her hand on the table. "Where is my sword?"
"Ohh.. I put it up in the closet." She explained with a bit of excitment in her voice. She then got up and headed towards a door and pulled the wrapped sword from the closet. "I wrapped it in wool so it wouldnt collect dust..." she handed it back to kaym, "I wasnt sure on how long you would sleep." She then sat down again.

"Sure, I was going to ask you anyhow."
He smirked, as he pulled his steel hat back over his head.
"I didn't want to leave you here anyhow, we got in this, so you might as well stay part."

"Great logic, couldn't worded it better myself"
He smirked to himself as he tightened the straps to his arms.

"Alright then."
He worded simply out of his confident voice. He then pointed to Shadow.
"Since you've been looking, where do you want to head? I'll head wherever you wish to go."
He bowed respectfully, as he looked at Braiddan.
"I ran into you two, so you two...lead the way I guess."

Shadow smiles and looks to them happily, her eyes lighting up gently and loyally. She thought for a second chewing her lip, and then spoke. "How about we go into the station and find a directory of some kind, then find out from there." she nods, smiling, at the train station standing only a few yards away.
((Does anyone have any preferences on where we want to move our storyline? I don't have any place in particular, so if there's anyplace you guys think would work out, input would be luffed))

::The door opened to the old womans house. Both stood in the door for a brief second, Kaym nodded her head and smiled
"You be careful out there, young ladys' shouldnt be doing those things youve been doing." The old woman stated, taking hold of her hand.
:Kaym smiled. "Im not as young as i look..." Her eyebrows curved, giving the old lady a generous face.
"Ohh.. pish posh, you look younger then 25!" She laughed out loud as she let go of her hand and shifted her way to the door knob.
"I'm 81." Kaym said kissing the old woman on her forebrow. Immediately turning away and walking away from the speechless lady.
::Turning at the next building corner, Kaym thought of their conversation. It was brief, but she'd hope that the old woman would forgive her for leaving the large sum of money on the pillowcase. Kaym was sure she would use it for good. Definately to a more knoble cause then she would. Kaym would have ended up spending it on destructive toys.
:Having her sword mounted to her back and her firearms safely belted to her legs and arms, she was happy to be moving once again. Her body was still heavily bandaged, especially her right hand. She still couldnt fully grip her sword and she knew it would take at least a few days before it was completely healed.
She rounded another corner and stopped infront of a disposal-unit. She ripped and tossed the bandaid into the trash, easily exposing the large scratch on her cheek. She wasnt fond of bandaids...
:Now for the time being, what the hell was she doing in this town. There had to be some reason why she came here... Did she forget?

"Let's find the nearest town."
He suggestested, thinking it would help Shadow think. He looked around for a map of this nation.
"Now there has to be a place not too far."

Seeing a map hanging on the wall, Shadow grabs his arm, and pulls him over, motioning for their friend to follow. Pointing up at the wall, her eyes search for a place to go. "We need somewhere where the police won't be so strict.. maybe.. we can all find what we're looking for.."
Biting her lip with thought processes, shadow thinks, staring at the map, and pointing to a few places. "Anyone have any preferences?" her hands trace across the map as she speaks

Vega looked at the location where Lament was, and he saw the town of Durem, as it was the closet town to this city.
"Let's head to the city of Durem. It's closest here, and maybe has a more lighter atmosphere."
He suggested, continuing to examine the map.

::In hearing a near conversation, Kaym nears the edge of neighboring brick building to get a better understanding of what they were talking about.
: Turning her head around the corner, she immediately sees a woman and a man, she had just grabbed his arm. Quote: "Anyone have any preferences?" :Kaym motioned back to the other side of the building, out of sight. She wasn't stalking them, but just curious as to were they were going. Quote: "We need somewhere where the police won't be so strict.. maybe.. we can all find what we're looking for.." ... "Let's head to the city of Durem. It's closest here, and maybe has a more lighter atmosphere." ::Lighter atmosphere? She placed her palm on the wall behind her and rose her eyebrow. Indeed. So far i've encountered a nutcase who felt, throwing darts was a way to make friends... Her own stale humor was enough to make her move.
:She leaned off the wall and emerged into the open, passing the plotting trio without moving her eyes their way. They were obviously in a much needed hurry to mind her passing. : She continued on her way to the inner area of the city.
