*watches shairi leave carefully, then drags his eyes back up to Lilandra*
My Lady what are you doing here?
*he throws a drunken salute and then slouches back down infront of his drink with a laugh*

*Jack watches Shairi throw some coins on the bar and out the corner of his eye stalk up stairs, turns his eyes and looks deep into this barmaids eyes and wispers*

If you want to live, come with me!


*he places his hand on the top of hers*

Captain Jack?.. What are you doing here? Didn't you get warned by James to curtail your drinking </>


*looks around the room once again.... a woman moved across the room and headed for the stairs*

*The drunk has hold of her hand.. *



Whaat?... Let go of me you buffoon!


*snatches her hand back*

*In Shairi's room.*

*Shairi opens the door and steps through to a small but comfortable room in the inn with a bed, a wardrobe and a table. She closes the door behind her, and listens to the lock's quiet click! She does a quick but thorough search around the room for cracks and listening ears. Satisfied, she removes a small pouch from her thigh, and unwraps it on the table. Inside is a bandolier of darts, all black, and braile coded for easy distinguishing in the dark. She quietly recites the best advice she had ever received.*

It's not how many people you inhume- it's how many fail to inhume you.

*She wraps the bandolier back up, and places it in the wardrobe, along with her other weapons. Except for her dagger. Her dagger was always at her side, even as she lay down to sleep on the bed.*

*The captain does his best to glare at the drunk, before shrugging with a laugh*

Nonsense my lady, if I cant hold my drunk what good am I anymore, James worries too much for my health, you know he worries too much generally

Oh! This is ridiculous!

I only came in to wipe my hands.. Captain.. James will require assistance at the school.. It may have passed your attention.. but there has been a terrible accident there!


Oh don't worry about me!... I am leaving!!


*looks an the Captain.. a man she always had affection for.. until he began drinking after the tragedy in his life*


*Glares at the drunkard.. and storms passed him and out onto the streets of Warwickshire*

*Jack lest her leave and watches throught the window*


8, 7, 6, drinkes my drink 5, 4, 3, out the door i must go



Jack open the door and follws

*salutes after Lilandra drunkenly then stares at his drink as his smile slowly drops to a grimace*

*after a second thought gets up and heads out for the school*

*leaves, without paying, and follows the others to see what's going on*

*reenters and heads up the stairs to find a room for the night. Finding one he removes his bag and greatcoat, revealing a sward hung at his waste. Taking a glass he 'borrowed' from the bar, he smashes it and sprinkles the fragments outside his door. From his bag he remove a bag of caltrops and sprinkles them on the floor of his room, before laying down on the bed and blowing out the candle*

Using the invisibility spell enters and glides silently to a corner. Watches and mentally records details of people present, their weapons and abilities. With this knowledge, is able to plan future moves and what speels to retun with. Glides silently, unseen and unnoticed from Inn.

Obtains dictionary

*having been watching the woman in black he now makes his way upstair*

*instead of going to his own room he starts to pick the lock on the door of the woman in black, the locks gives and he enters the room, she is sleeping, she hasn't changed from the last time he saw her, He sits on the floor and waits for her to awaken*

*Does not appear to wake. However, she very slowly moves the dagger so that the hilt is pointed directly at Cal. She triggers a hidden switch and a dart filled with sleeping potion flies from the hit at Cal's stomach.*

*Cal catches the dart*

You should know me better than that!

`

*Sits up on the bed, looking harmless, for now.*

How nice to see you again, Cal! Nice of you not to try to kill me outright this time around.

*There is a note of sarcasm in her voice.*

*stands and walks towards the bed*

Did you really think that I would let you go?

*Stands, dagger at the ready.*

I suppose it was too much to hope for.
