From: "Larry Lo" Subject: Wataru's next move; after Paul Date: Sat, 6 Jun 1998 23:01:37 -0700 {non-rpg; this assumes that Paul is at the same Green Dragon Inn.} While Paul was delievering his speech/story of the Princess Bride, Wataru still sat where he has sat in the begining. :Mmm... Great story.: But then two kids caught his eye. They had just came in. Dressed in rags, they were normally a bunch of of muddy rascals as little kids should be. But apond a closer inspection, Wataru notice they are TWINS! :...interesting. I'll call the taller one Masa and the smaller one Mune.: Masa:"over here!, this one." he whispered. Mune approaches toward one of the patron. Unsuspectingly while the patronage listens intensely to Paul's story, Mune grabs it's purse while Masa looks around. Mune:"Got it!" Looking up he saw Wataru gazing straight at them. "O'NO we've been spotted, RUN!" he whispers back to Masa. They quickly rushed out the door. :Heh, looks like the rules are still the same, in any world...: ... Paul finishes his great epic and recieves his payment. While he sits and begins his meal, Wataru approaches toward Drake. "Drake, you've, got any jobs around here?" "Jobs?" "You know, stuff like mercenary work. People who needs protection, an extra swordwelder, stuff like that?" Thinking quickly of Finn's needs {check "Time to get out of Dodge" post}... "I think I do. Come back to me in the morning. Why don't you get some sleep, you look like you're gonna drop." "Thanks, n'ght." "n'ght" Heading up the stairs, Wataru trips on the final step. "Ouch!" And he falls flat on the ground. *BOOM* "AGH" Slightly disoriented, he continues towards his room using the wall as some means of support. But as fate would behold him, he touches one of the candles flame, which was to provide light for the main hall. "YEOW!" Waving his burned hand and walking backwards slightly, Wataru crashes into Estela's room. *BOOM!* *Crunch* (sounds of the wooden door breaking) Meanwhile all the noise have woken some of the sleeping patrons.. "WHAT THE H*LL IS ALL THAT NOISE!!!" ...
