"And you decide to call in that favor now. Of course." Scimitar rolled his eyes. "Very well. Where?"

"I have..." Collin mumbled.

"In the castle attacking Luner," Melany spoke, "I'm going with you."
"As am I," Gain staggered toward them.
"No you arn't," Melany growled, "you can barely stand."
"I want to see the killer brought to justice."
"Fine let's go but keep up brother dear," Melany started walking.


"That's your clue."

Collin put his hands on his hips. "Well, two can be stubborn. I'll ask again; let them go."

"...Which castle?" Scimitar asked skeptically.

The blade moved closer to Blue's throat, "Don't push me hedgehog."


"Opal's," Melany built up speed as Gavin struggled to keep up.

Collin raised his quills, then lowered them in an exhale. "Fine. We can be reasonable and stubborn. Care to duel for them?" He proposed.

"Gladly," The assain stepped foward brandishing a ninja sword, "trational or any other way you care to try dueling?"

"Nothing dramatic. Frist blood should sufice." Collin suggested. "If you bleed first, you let them free peacably. If I bleed first, I won't pester you any longer or call in reinforcements to slaughter the lot of you like I'm tempted to."

"Agreed," The assain's sword had a blue hue to it.

Collin dipped his head in respect and drew his blade. "Excellent."
---
Scimitar did a double take. "Pardon?"

"Opal's castle is where the killer is. Right now he is attacking Luner and we have to stop him," Melany increased her pace even more to the point where Gavin couldn't keep up.

The assain struck quickly not waiting for any signal.
