Lucca started to laugh. "How cute!" she covered her smile with her hand. "Either way, if he is more of a friend he shouldn't treat you like a kid. Its kind of demeaning." she looks towards the stairs. "Where is Asizue?"
Alice placed her hands on the bar as she listened to them. The Cheshire cat stands and moves next to her, resting his head on her hands. He seems to be waiting for something.

Sizarin smiled. "Yeah, I know."
Zolis chimed in quickly. "I don't mind if master treats me as a child. That is after all how I look..." He stopped his eyes seemed sad for once and Sizarin frowned to himself, then he spoke to Lucca "I do not know... she should have been back by now..."
Asizue stood up shakily. "damn, damn, damn, damn..." She looked to her hand then started her way to the stairs going to the main hallway.

A man with a dark hood over his head walks into the inn... His looks are hidden through the darkness covering his face as he looks up at the people at the bar. He starts to move towards them keeping to the shadows.

"Okay, okay, I supose I could drop the kid thing." she shook her head. "psh, now I remember why I stay out of other peoples business." she chuckled.
Alice smiles as she climbs onto the bar and moves to her suit case, her soes making a light tapping sound. Pulling it up, she starts to rumage through it. Cheshire sits up and hisses into the shadows. "Alice, come here..." the cat stands now, his tail fluffed.

The man walks up his sword sheath bouncing on his outter leg. He is roughly the same height as sizarin. "Hello," He says with a voice that sounds kind and cultured. "Might i inquire about a place to stay or even a job? I would do the security if you wish. Oh and my name is Rai." He pulls down his hood to revel his face. His hair was black and his face deathly pale... But his eyes... They were blue eyes that were as cold as ice but were also calm and peaceful at the same time.

Sizarin stared at the man a moment, his eyes looked pained almost. "We have many jobs open at the moment, and most of our rooms are empty." He said simply. Zolis blinked at the moment in reconisation, but then seemed to forget about it as Sizarin tapped the back of his head slightly.
Asizue started down the steps and glared at Sizarin. "I suppose you could tell me why your friend Satire just technically attacked me?" She fumed.
Sizarin stared at her blankly then shrugged. "I don't have all the answers..." Asizue looked like she was about to throw something at him before she noticed there was someone new in the bar.

Lucca just stared at the man then turned to Asizue and to the company around her. She could feel the sudden tension in the air but couldn't figure who it was from and why.
Alice smiled at Rai, being kind hearted as she was she instantly thought of him as a friend. "Good evening." she stood from her suitcase and curtsied to him "We'd be happy to have you stay..." she paused. "Excuse me, I have to go check on dinner." she curtsied to him again before climbing onto the bar stool and then onto the floor where she moved towards the kitchen, clicking sounds following her. Cheshire cat continued to hiss at the man but as Alice moved towards the kitchen, too followed cautiously behind her.

Sizarin watched Alice go. "She's winding down again.. Damnit." He muttered to himself. Then he looked to Rai and extended his hand. "I'm sorry about the cat, he normally just hates me. You said your name was Rai right?" He asked smiling slightly.
Zolis blinked to Sizarin. "Master did you say winding down?" Asizue sighed and walked behind the bar.

"That is right. My name is Rai." Rai says with a calm voice. He looks at Sizarin for a moment then shook his head. "You seem fimalir... Have we met somewhere before?" Rai turns to Lucca. "You do realise that it is rude to stare and not introduce ones self dont you?" Rai says his face as unreadable as ice. He turns back to Sizarin... "So do i get the job?"

Lucca continued to stare at Rai before grinning and leaning over the counter to check for the milk.
Cheshire helped Alice pull the rabbit from the oven (don't ask how) and set it to cool on the counter. "All done." Alice sat on the stool in front of the food and smiled. Cheshire's tail twitched. "I want you to sleep till this... man... leaves." Alice stares at the cat. "I..don't think that will be a...problem." she says with a sigh. "My...wind...er is getting...old." she folds her hands on the counter. The cat nods. "It is...master is not here to update you. Soon the winder wont work. That wont be for some time now. I'll be searching for some replacement while you sleep." Alice's head leans forward as she nods but as she looks back up, she stops and he eyes close.

The edges of Sizarin's mouth twitched into a smile as he let his hand drop to the bar. "You seem familiar as well." He said in abit of an undertone. "Yes you can have the job, god, it seems we really will need some security here." He said a cheery attitude coming on now. "Oh Asizue, will you look and see how Alice is doing?" He asked turning to her, she nodded.
"I'm still annoyed at you." She growled as she left into the backroom going to the kitchen.
Sizarin turned back to Rai. "My name is Sizarin, I suppose I should show you to your room..." He said.

"No need. All in good time my young friend. As a matter of fact i would like to know if there is anyone i need to keep an eye out for, say some family member that you guys hate or what not." Rai says with a smile as he pulls out his money bag. "How much will i owe you my fine fellow?" Rai says as his eyes survey the room. "So are you the owner?" He turns towards Lucca. "My dear might i request your name?"

Sizarin paused a moment taken aback, he wasn't really thinking this could happen, but still it did. "Um.. No need for payment for us, your servaces are fine enough." He sighed. "Quite lately, it's more of a girl by the name of Ens and her stupid marionettes, Satire you'll probably see him sooner or later, and some mysterious woman..." He said simply. "This can't be him..." He thought to himself. "To put it bluntly he wouldn't be so polite.." Zolis looked to Sizarin and tilted his head, but kept making the wreath somehow.
Asizue walked into the kitechen to see Alice asleep on the counter, and the rabbit cooling, she quickly walked back out to Sizarin. "Um... The rabbit is done, but does Alice even need to sleep? She seems to be sleeping on the counter..." Sizarin looked to Asizue a moment deep in thought. "Great now you're broading again..." She sighed exasperated.

Lucca pulled out the carton of milk and turned to Rai. "You may request it." she then reaches for a glass. "If it'll keep you from being formal with me, I'll gladly give it." she fills the glass half full with milk before putting the milk carton away. and turns to Asizue. "Alice... I think she does sleep... but doesn't she sleep in that suitcase thing..." she points to the open suitcase at the end of the bar.
Cheshire trots into the main area and cautiously walks towards the bar itself, fur on end. "You smell... like him." he hisses before disappearing.

Sizarin nodded walking to the suitcase. "I suppose if she is asleep outside of it I should go put her into it..." He said gently closing it to make it easier to carry.
Zolis walked over to him. "I'll come Master!" He piper up. "I don't like that man..." He sent to Sizarin's mind.
Sizarin smiled to the boy. "Zolis stay here and keep Lucca, Asizue, and our new guest company." He said. "I've noticed.. Just stay here and watch him.." Sizarin replied walking to the backroom with the suitcase and into the kitchen.
Satire appeared by the fireplace sitting on one of the seats his feet up on the table examining his sword. "Well, well..." He murmered to himself, the blade appearing liquid blood in that of the firelight, it seemed hungry somehow. Asizue winced remembering the previous encounter with that blade, noticing Satire first.
