Sarah senses Zero and keeps as quiet as possible, she didn't want Hoowlers figuring out that Zero was close.
Hoowlers sniffs the air, "Where's your partner anyway Nox? He's normally around, tailing you like a puppy."

Zero continued his prowl, ears folded back. ....Close. Somebody else is with her? He thought as he tested the air.

Hoowlers sniffs the air, "Come out come out Zero. I know you're there."

Zero's ears perked up, eyes narrowing. "...Very well." He mumbled, silently drawing his blade. "If it pleases the court!!" He snarled, springing out from the shadows to face her. He didn't attack just yet, but he did anticipate one.

Hoowlers did not attack Zero instead she smiles, "I had a feeling you'd come to try and free Nox. Or were you after something else?" She has her weapon out aimed in Zero's direction.

Zero exhaled softly, bringing up his blade defensively. "I want no quarrel with you. My buisness is with somebody else."

"Mercel the bat right," Hoowlers asks a new fire in her eyes, "I had a feeling you would. Where is Hagin and more importantly I have a commission for you. Find who murdered my husband and make them pay very very dearly."

"I would gladly take your commission, but I take only one job at a time, ma'am." Zero growled softly. "And I know nothing of that lunatic's current whereabouts. I'll say it again. I want no quarrel with you, so I advise we part ways for now."

"Then why don't you just walk yourself into a cell Infinite," Hoowlers asks.

"Why don't you just stay out of our way?" Zero returned. "We're both just trying to do our jobs here, are we not?"
