Ashlyn stopped in her tracks. This wasn't a good day. She stamped her feet in frustration. NO, no, and again no! She threw the thing behind a dresser. Then went an fetched it. Then again over onto a chair, and went and got that to. Finally, she brought it over and droped it in Master Malik's lap.
Where did she get it? Well it wasn't Serino's, though she had been trying to get them to think about horses. And where are horses kept? Hmmm? Where do the live?She hoped that the elve's basic understanding of animal language would help with this one. She squacked the griffen word for "stable."
"H-hey! Are you sure it's safe to be carrying a little girl lizard-back?" He put a paw on the things hide to keep them from bonding away.
Bode squealed with glee and grabbed hold of the saddle's pommel. She yelled "Iah!" with a drawn out "ah" sound so forcible that when the lizard took off at a lopsided gallop, the white kitty was thrown off his balance and to the ground. Graceful the lzard was not, but he was agile. Smiling from ear to ear as they weaved through people, nocked over people who didn't get out of the way fast enough, ran out of the stables and right for on the stone worked walls. Bode was enjoying it too much to tell her new gaurdian the words for "slow down" or "stop."

Malik watched and shook his head lightly. he didn't understand the language..but picked up the riens and looked at them. Not serinos..where do you get reins at if you don't get them off the horse. well from the person keeping them. where do you keep horses in a city? the local stable.
"the child is here, and you saw them at the stables."
That lead to a commotion outside, and Malik went to the window, grinning lightly.
"Or, she's out riding on a lizard with a large black winged Vah. Perhaps Onyx of Vah needed a little riding lesson."
"Oh come on she knows how to ride she's fine..."
Then the Iaaaaah word, and the lizard started moving, and Onyx chuckled at it left Moon to fall on the ground. and what better way to learn then a road test. so he'd hit the rein buttons, and grinned as teh lizard would turn this way and that.
"This isn't so hard. now to get him to stop, you just hit both these buttons at the same time, right?"

She heaved a large sigh. Ah, finally! Yes. That was it. She cocked a feathered ear. Well, she supposed that was them. With a hop and a jump she was out the window and on her way. Though she wouldn't actually go after the child unless Master Malik told her too.
Moonstone lay on the ground, cloak thrown off, a bewildered look on his face. What had his brother gotten himself into? And how was he going to keep him from losing his hide?
She looked up at the kitty towering over her, and with her upside-down look asked him, "why would you want to stop?" She giggled and threw her hands in the air shouting "Iah! Iah! Iah!"
The lizard, while responding to Onyx's eye commands, only did them because he saw the reasoning for them. But with this particular lizard...well if he didn't want to stop. Then he just might not stop.

"Well...that was fun, wasn't it?" Piper shook her head as Aslyn left. Honestly did she have to bring Serino into the equation about it? Made her worry about him...but it was fun to watch Malik go about guessing answers. Crossing her arms she walked over to the window as well, taking a look down at the sight. She tilted hre head, studying the two. "Looks like them...I guess."

"Yes it does. I wonder though if she was supposed to tell us anything else?"
A slight chuckle at her, and an arm went about her waist, while watching the griffin head off to do whatever griffins do. Then a glance at the commotion. Winged Vah..that definatly had to be Cymarron's. Vah normally didn't have wings.
"So. How much should I wager on you if there's going to be betting?"
Onyx's tail tighened around Bode, and he talked to her softly.
"We're making a big commotion. that means it's easy to find us and people cna see us."
Stressing that a bit to get the point across...and well she'd said they don't like to go where they can't see, so he hit both button on the reins and hoped for the best. he was not planning on roadtesting the wall climbing feature of these mounts just yet.

She smiled. "Quite a bit? Depends on how much you trust me to be out another elf. Humans...no problem. If I was betting on me I would wager a rather large chunk of change...of course this is from the person who doesn't use money much and doesn't really care about the value of it. But we both know I'm a rather seasoned archer. She looked out to the Vahs again, getting that slight itch to leave the room and actually find out if they really were Cymie's kids. She could still remember how little they were. Then a shake of her head. "Well if she was, it's nothing a few good manners and pets won't get out of her next time we see her."

"I'd say you got a good chance. You've made more use of your skills than just tournaments. so if there's betting I'll be putting a good wager on you. Wonder if the tournament will be starting soon...and how well that Vah thinks he can fight."
A grin at her, and one of those patented kisses of his.
"You know..I'm pretty experienced at getting this armor on and off fairly quickly.."

Moonstone stood, shook his head. Okay, maybe he shouldn't be too hard on Onyx, he was only doing what he wanted to do after all. He himself had entered a sword fight, just to get some practice in and see what his training had accomplished. He wasn't really set on winning or losing, he just wanted to see.
He threw the cloak over one shoulder and walked around a bit, resigned to let Onyx have his fun for the moment. They would need a place to stay, of course. Hmmm, he hadn't thought about that. They'd need money. And since Onyx had what was left of their earnings, moonstone would have to hire himself out for some odd jobs. Hmmm, where to look. Perhaps he could get a small task at the arena, that way he could stay close to the tourney games.
The Lizard did not stop when Onyx flipped the eye covers. But Bode, sudenly wide eyed with panic, shouted, "Yani!" a short, clipped command. The lizard skidded to a halt just before running over a gaurd that it couldn't see. Teary eyed, she turned back ti kitty.
I'm sorry! I almost hurted somebody!"

She looked to him with one of those looks she gave him when he was thinking about doing things that he shouldn't be doing at the present time. Oh things like maiming the locals for no reason, or as now, trying to get her in bed knowing full well it wasn't the best time in the world. Not with an impending tournament. "You know...I'm fairly not in the mood to be getting armor on and off fairly quickly." Piper shook her head with a laugh, trying to regain her cognative thought. She needed it rigth now. Frankly her mind was starting to be mean to her about this whole Vah thing. "You can't kill him."

"pity. and what do you mean I can't kill him? You mean that Onyx down there?"
Another look out the window, though his fingers traces along her arm and over her stomach lightly.
"He's got a build like his father, if it is Cymarron's kit we're talking about. so he's probably fairly strong. but by looking at him..I don't think he's got the discipline to be a real fighter. The white one maybe. but Onyx looks like a bouncer at a bar as opposed to a real competitor."
Then a look back at her.
"But alright. if he and I face eachother, I won't kill him."

She took hold of his one roaming hand in both of hers. Not that she didn't like it, it was the fact that she did like it that she grabbed hold. What now? He was trying to seduce her then act like he wasn't? Oh she knew the game, they both played it all too well. "Careful Malik, or you may not get to share a bed with me in the manner you prefer until after we are married." Yeah, like that would happen, a game she would lose. "Besides, like you said, we don't know when this thing is going to start, no need to expend energy that you need." Ha ha, logic. Though her hands did play with his fingers lightly. "Good....try not to hurt him too bad either. I mean, you can fight him and all...just...well like I said don't kill him. That includes injuries that could kill him as well."

A small grin when she halted his hand, and played with his fingers, his attention back to her.
"you wouldn't be able to hold out that long, 'chev. But alright. I'll try not to give him any serious injury that would be fatal, and I won't kill him. and as for needing my energy..you know I have more than enough of that to be able to spend some on a gorgeously seductive and powerful elf like you."
A chuckle and a kiss on her hand with a wink.
"But then again, you have to be able to stand to compete in your competition..and you might not be able to do that in time if it starts soon."

Moonstone was wandering mostly, trying to think what he could do to earn a bit of money to stay someplace tonight, but not willing to take on something demeaning for Vah, like mucking out a stall. Gardian ship kind of ran in the family. But those always came out of special relationships, so that was probably out of the question. Where then?

"Well...I could try at least." Though she couldn't help but smile at him. "Thank you Malik." Pushing up of her toes she gave him one of those teasing little kisses of hers, the type that she would sneak in from time to time back in places where displays of affection were a no no. "I know very very very well that you have the energy...fatigue." A nod. "So as you said, I need to be able to stand...not to mention aim. No way I can aim with thoughts of you in my head...I'd be way too unfocused." He then got one of those sassy little smirks from her that she gave sometimes. "Come on. I need to get you out of this room before you get us into a compromising, not matter how enjoyable, position."A tug on his hand.
