Cari looked around, "Oh, they should be heading back in their own time. I suspect the fighters have already left. First, I want to have a hot meal before I go back. Do you know a place where I can buy something to eat?" ((hmm... I'm wondering whether or not I should drag Pyro in here and how to use him if I do... two red-headed guys in one place might be overwhelming for Cari. -j/k))

((=P)) 'Aye... I know of a place.', he said gladly, understanding that he would get someting to eat also. (((=P))) He pointed in the direction of a low 1 storie building 3 houses down on the other side of the small street. A beautiful, hand carved sign swung above the door. "The Blue Horse" it read. 'Tha's aboot the behst place to eat aroond heer. And yeh owe me a drink!', he said happily as he strode off towards the building.
((Blue horse... haha. I asked my Dad as he walked by what his fave color and the first animal that came to mind were =P))

Cari reached inside her cloak and found the coin sack at her belt, "Oh, rabid goats on you," She grinned, examining the coins extracted. K had given her some coins several months ago when she joined the group so as to buy some new clothes for the journey. She had some left over and supposed she would not be needing the few that were left anytime soon anyway. Cari blinked and rubbed one of them again. It was different than the other ones. -It was not even shaped like a coin. The item was a copper leaf with a hole through the stem. Perhaps once a charm on a necklace. She dropped the other coins back in the bag but held onto that while they walked to the Blue Horse inn. ((some inns sold food back then)) There was something in the back of her mind... oh, she would remember later. Cari could smell the hot soups and breads and meats; Oh! She moved faster, passing Clay. "You never told me your name," She looked over her shoulder at him.

An odd expression apeared on his face. He had just told her his name. Remembering suddenly that she had just told him she could not remember her own real name, he sighed. 'Clay... Clay O'Nalley.', he said patiently, nodding in disbelief.
They walked in the doors into the large common room. It was still quite empty. The few who sat at the tables where still yawning form a good night of sleep. The Blue Horse manager was behind his counter, drying and putting away dishes. Clay picked a table near the counter and sat down. Looking back up at the hooded girl, he pointed to the stange copper leaf Cari carried (( haha, redundant =P)). 'Wha's that there?' he asked.
Fafnir stood staring into one of the windows from the outside of the inn.

"Oh, uh, I do not know. -I forget things very easily it seems. It must be something of worth to me..." She absantly turned to see Fafnir, "How did you come by your dragon? ...or did you already tell me?" She added the last as an afterthought. "Oh!" She rested her arms on the table and smacked her forehead inside of them, making a sound that caused the few heads that happened to be there to turn in her direction. She lifted it again, "Now did you?" She asked pleasantly as though her previous action was to be ignored as one would excuse a scratch or a polite cough in one's napkin... (( If it ever gets boring, let me know))

'Ah! right.. the Dragon then?', he whispered. 'Aye.. I doont think I told yeh much aboot him. I actualy won him in a bet... He was only an egg then... I believe he made me win..somehow..' He raised a hand and called over the man behind the counter. 'Can ye get her somethin' teh eat?' he asked. As he did this he saw, far back in the corner of the room, a man. Or at least he thought it was a man. His face could not be seen under his hood. Clay spun around, looking back at Cari. 'Whot is that man in the corner there doing? Is ee one of yours?'

Cari glanced the man's way and shook her head, "No, but I think I have seen him before in one of the other villages. He may be following us," ((I hope that applies to his character. You said he follows and watches people some times)) A man with a scraggly beard set a bowl of something before Cari. She knew nothing of what it was, but it was steaming nicely. She began eating like a starving wolf. "I would not be troubled with his prescense. If he were a spy or assassin, he would not be so suspicious." She did not know that as a fact, but she imagined it so. Assassin or not, she was hungry.

'Ah.. ye have a point there...' answered Clay convinced. 'Boot I ave seen im before...' 'Wheel, nevermind then. How's the soup?', he gestured to the bowl. 'By the whee, how far is it to this pleace you've been talkin' aboot?', he asked, running a hand through his red hair.

"Oh," She leaned over the table and whispered, "As I said before, a few miles. It is surrounded by the forest and walled in on several sides. We have many tunnles under our stronghold that lead to different places. We found it abandoned while scouting and decided to move inside; -we know not who first built it," She shot a quick glance toward the cloaked man before slowly sitting again. "And the soup is very nice," She added with a smile. ((Oh... I want to bring Pyro in so bad...))

((bring him in =P heheheh))
Clay smiled. And began fingering a pouch at the lide of his belt. He drew a small dagger, and began flipping it in his hand. 'I hope ye doont mind...' he said, 'bad habbit. I guess I start up with it when I'm nervous or something....' 'Soo.. when are we supposed to be gooing?'
((btw, is anyone else gonna join in? Would be fun =P I could probably try and invite someone =D the more characters the merrier right?))

((everyone's busy I guess)) "I think we should return as soon as possible after we finish eating," Cari took another bite of her food, glancing down at Clay's dagger. ((okay, I'm brining him in, but how 'bout the 'guy in the corner' meets him first?)) A commotion was heard coming from outside. Cari immeadiately stood and ran to the window to look out, all the time thinking the worst. A large crowd was gathered around near a blacksmith's shop that was... on fire...

(( haha =P wonder how it got that way... =P))
Clay saw it too. He ran wildly out the door. 'What on our lovi'n earth? Fafnir! did you do this?' 'No', the young dragon said bluntly, 'I breathe ice! I just learned that this morning! wheee!', he said as he shot a snowball at Clay, witch hit him SMACK in the face. The young man was very annoyed with this. 'And ye're jus' sitting here whatching? Cant yeh do something about the blazing fire?', he yelled hotly. Fafnir looked confused. As if he where associating fire... and ice...equals... water? He suddenly understood! ((took him a while eh?)) The dragon leapt into the air and flew above the burning building showering balls of snow all over it. The people on the street whatched as this rare creature flew about above the building. The fire was dying down, and Fafnir landed clumsily on his side.

((yeah, it did!)) "Is the boy alive?" a voice within the crowd called as their attention was turned on Fafnir. They all looked to the middle again. "Lift 'im up,"
Cari stood next to Clay, "I wonder if they found one of the others," She tried to look closer.
"The lunatic is moving! Bind him!" The crowd moved away, dragging someone behind them.
"Precarious!" A man shouted behind her, "who be that man? A new recruit for battle? Fortunate Ah stayed behind, for the others have left already." "Oh, that is K," Cari explained. "Perhaps we should leave. That man was not one of our own." The tall man looked Fafnir up and down, "A new beast? We will need to move him during battle so as not to attract much attention from the enemy." He began roping the dragon's neck.

((wierd... It doesnt say you're on and it didnt say you wrote anything on the home... here it says evertything =P))
'What are ye doin'?!' cried Clay, as he whatched them tie up the dragon. He paced towards the tall man, almost drawing his sword.

((Tie? I didn't say 'tie'. Good idea though. We'll just pretend I did. Dangit, I can't find my shorts. -randomness-)) "This young one will not stray away? We will need 'im to be discrete, for we do not want the enemy to know we are recruiting. If they found out, they would try to slaughter the village now." K made excuse as he turned to Clay.

(( hehe you said "bind". haha Tie is what I understood =P))
Clay looked straight into the man's eyes. They where very close in height. Clay thought of how Fafnir had been flying around all morning. He thought of the danger that he might have already caused.
'How can we move him if he remains bound?', he asked after a long pause.

((Oh no, they were talking about someone else, Missunderstanding.)) "I will but tied a leash to him. Quickly now, a battle is before us and I fear we may have under-estimated our enemies." --- A young man lay in shackles near a street corner. His eyes were closed and his bound hands set on his chest. He suddnely opened his eyes and read the sign across the wide street. "The Blue Horse" He watched it for a few minutes, his head spinning. Had he been unconscious?
