Zantaric- known for it's crude, rude and filthy population, a scab constantly picked over on the world, festering and unkempt- with not a single ruler but many who try to stake claim with fists and swords. So many that came here came to stay, for a sanctuary for the seedy grows the shadiest of trees. Though that was not the reason that drew Iyla Krue. She had a lead, and a keen sense, that this was the place she'd find the seed of darkness- and not just the 'seeds' of darkness hidden within these men.

She was only in the city for a few minutes and was already regretting her stay. With one hand cautious and tense at her side, she stalked through the town. Though most wouldn't think much of her- for she was dressed as a man, and had only a few sparse sprigs of hair poking through the front of her hood ad falling over her ruby red eyes. A mask was tucked across her face, and because of the ways she bound her body, it appeared as just another lithe man stalking through their city like a cautious panther. There were many of these types, so she fit right in.

She wasn't here for the same reasons as most. Where dark and twisted magics and men converged, and skull cracked in brawls on the street for power and pleasure- no, she was seeking something much more dangerous than that- for a dark entity was present here, and she could sense it, even through the stench of men at the bar. The tavern: The Craggy Oak was nothing boastful, in fact, it was positively filthy and a little too crowded for her own tastes, but she needed a drink and a place to get her barrings.

This place made her dizzy, dizzier than most, but she assumed it was the lack of table manners and the grunts of men and their stench. That, and the fact the shadow seed had to be close. It was hard to discern where, but the ink-like matter that had replaced her blood sent a warm tingling sensation throughout her veins. So she knew she was getting close.

Ordering a mug of ale, it came in a dirty cup, but she didn't care. Pulling back the clothe about her mouth, just enough so that she could drink, she chugged down about half the mug before replacing the mask and peering through the darkness of the Inn. Yes, it was very close- perhaps too close, as her senses were drumming inside her ears, a sensation that was soon giving her a headache. But so was the noise inside the bar. Gods damn drunks.

In the pursuit of the leisures life has to offer Hunter found himself in Zantaric a rather unsavory cesspool of debauchery. Though he found that certain aspects of Zantaric were ones he could easily follow along with, however he was not here in search of his own vices but rather he had come here in search of a bounty he has been after. Though he did not like doing it, Hunter knew he had to spend coin to make coin and with thought in mind that is what he had to do in order to find out where he might run into the person he has been after, shelling out coin to various people as bribes for information.

It was this information that he managed to scrounge up, albeit at a cost to him, that had brought him to The Craggy Oak. Though it was not the most desirable of places to be Hunter knew it was here that the person he is after might be given what he had been told. Though he knew it was guaranteed given the fact that people do tend to lie about things and that the person he is after could not be here or not return. Hunter had decided to spend time in the tavern to see if the one he is searching for showed up.

Shifting his gaze from below the brim of his hat, Hunter scans the inside of the tavern, glancing from one patron to the next as he takes a sip from his drink. Given where he had found himself Hunter was more cautions then he would be if he were in a more lawful village. " Hmmm. " He murmurs softly to himself as he shifts his gaze idly. As he shifts his gaze he gives thought of how he should handle the situation, given the fact that he found himself in a place of drinking he knew there is a high likely hood of a drunken brawl breaking out. While that may be good it could also be bad given that he could possible lose the person he is after.

Berlious Rhecht; a man with only one eye and a shiny, bald head, mean, brown eyes and muscles bulging all over his body- made no effort to keep conspicuous on who he was. He threw out his name like it were worth a million dollars, and when the other men at his card table got pissed he was winning the game- it didn't take too long for a fight to break out.

Fists met to faces, and chairs to heads as broken mugs and plates crashed to the ground. There was fresh blood now splattering to the ground as fists cracked into loud mouths to silence them and a few men lost a bit of teeth, but it was all in a day's night in Zantaric.

When the fight broke out, Iyla's red eyes went over to observe the barbaric sight, thinking nothing of it- except when the tall, bald headed man by the name of Berlious was winding up for another punch, and his fist went clean into the other man's chest.

Her own heart lurched at the notion- and she could feel it. The very presence of the shadow seed had been awoken- and this seemingly normal mortal man was now throwing about this power in nonchalance.
"Damn." she cursed. What rotten luck.

She'd have to find a way to tear the seed out of this man, or kill him. And her eyes remained wary upon the men as the fight continued on- and it was evident the strength Berlious carried was anythng but human. No man could slam a fist through an entire table- but he just did. And in fact, no man could throw a fist through another man!

The shadow seed.. she realized he must have tapped into it's strength- or that this shadow seed's focus was on strength and in turn, lent it's own other-worldly powers to this holder who willingly merged with it.

Yep, this manw as going to die. Especially after he flung himself at the bar and exclaimed, "Who's next!?" His fists were ready.

Of course, curse her rotten luck, she was within his line of sight and his eyes met to hers, the brown color having long since faded to black.

Her nostrils burned, her veins tingled...
Yes... the seed was so near she could taste it.

"Little man, you want a piece of this?"

But before Iyla could answer him, her boot came up and hit him right between the legs. DOubling over, Iyla didn't hesitate as she used the shadows to heighten her speed, and slid just to the one side- A trick only the keenest of eyes could hve noticed, before bringing her boot up and kicking him on the chest, then wth a step and kick up his body, a boot met to his face. Kicking off his head, she did an aerial flip backwardsa nd away from the man before landing safely in  a crouch as the big man began to stumbled backwards. ANd giving one final, powerful kick, the man was sent sailing across the room- smashing into the side of the tavern, which his entire body went through- leaving a gaping hole int he wall.

As he shifted from one tavern patron to another in search of the man he was after he caught wind of a name, a name that hooked his attention causing him to perk up a bit. The name Berlious Rhecht had caught his attention as it was the man he had been hunting for. He felt he was in luck, the coin he had spent paid off which was a nice thing when everything lined up. It was not a good feeling when you had to spend your coin and did not get any of it back. Though he thought he was in luck since he his path had begun to cross with the man he is after, as the fight begins to break out he fills his luck turning from what he thought was good into bad luck as a bar fight was something he was hoping to avoid even though the bar fight was not something he had caused. " Just my luck... " Hunter grumbles lightly to himself as the fight begins to break out. Thought the fight had broken out he decides not to take part in it as it would not make his job any easier.

Watching the man he is after put his fist through another man's chest only made Hunter more sure that he should stay out of the fight. Though it made him more assured of his choice to stay out of the fight it also made him question, just a bit, why he is after this man. If he can put his fist through another man's chest then he could do a lot more then just that to someone. The idea of having a man punch through his chest or even break a limb with such ease as the man seemed to do so with made Hunter rethink his commitment to taking this man in. If he could punch into a man's chest then how hard would it be to bring a man like that down and even take him in for the bounty. " .. Blast, why do things have to be this troublesome. " he says with a sigh as he watches the man he is after. Though this new revelation made him rethink his commitment to capturing this bounty, Hunter knew he could use the coin after what he had to spend to find the man.

With his choice to stay out of the fighting Hunter remains where he had been and simply watches as the man goes after someone at the bar. Watching what was going on he gave thought to perhaps stepping in and trying his hand at bringing the fight to an end however he did not want a man punching into his chest. Though he thought Berlious was nearly unstopable in his rampage, Hunter watches as the man doubles over after taking a hit between the legs. Hunter turns his gaze from his target to the man he had gone after now, he didn't think anyone could bring the rampaging man down, however it had happened before his own eyes. Not only had the person brought Berlious but also waisted no time in following through with a number of strikes to deal with Berlious. Hunter turns his gaze back to Berlious moments before he is sent sailing across the room and through a wall, a feat that shocked Hunter. " I may have to ask for extra... " Hunter says to himself before he sets his mug down and raises to his feet. Given what had just happened and where his target now resided he thought it may be a good time to move into action. Picking up his crossbow Hunter wasted no time in following after Berlious through the hole, his gaze shifting around for a moment in search of the man as he stood ready for a fight, though he hoped going through a wall had done something to the man that would aid in his capture. " Berlious, I am here to claim the bounty on your head. " Hunter says after stepping out of the tavern.

Berlious Rhecht lay, arms sprawled, face towards the heavens, with splinters of wood and dusty debris sooting his skin. When Hunter came out using his phrasing, the man groaned just as his breath returned to him. And as he peered up at the crossbow, he wrinkled his face in anger.

"Get that fuckin' piece of shit out of my face," Berlious growled. "Before I make you eat it."

Iyla, having watched the blonde haired idiot chase after the man on the ground, rolled her eyes and went back to the bar. Her drink was still in tact. Sighing, she lowered her wrapped mask again to get another drink - this time finishing the whole cup. Let the foolish cross-bow maniac deal with him now. She needed a drink, and a plan. She never thought she'd run into the problem where another mortal would merge with the stone. This could prove problematic. But what could she do?

Peering over at the hole, she frowned. Perhaps she ought to help the idiot wtht he cross bow. But something about that didn't sit well with her, and then catching what Hunter said really pissed her off. Rising from the bar, she took a swig of someone elses's abandoned drink before storming out after the pair.

She stepped through the hole she made with Berlious's body and glared at the two men. And without so much as a warning, she kicked Hunter in the balls, too.
"Get your bounty your own damn way," she growled, her voice gruff and masking over her feminine tone. And her red eyes flashed from Hunter towards Berlious, who was now taking advantage of the two persons after him as he got to his feet.

"Where do you think you're going?" Iyla demanded, but Berlious already had taken off. "Gods damn." She cursed and took off after him, not caring she'd leave Hunter to eat her dust.


OOC: lol hope it's ok I had cc-ed some action from Iyla, if you want - just PM me and I can edit this post if you'd rather not have her do that XD

The threat from Berlious did give Hunter a moment of pause as he thought on the fact that Berlious could probably make him eat the crossbow given that he had punched into a mans chest and destroyed a table with ease. Though he thought on it he knew he could not go with it as this was his ticket to getting more coin and now he had found his target. With his full attention fixed on Berlious, Hunter did not see Iyla as she approached, though if he he may have been cautioned to her approach. He had not seen her on approach however he realized her presence only a few moments before she brought her foot up and kicked him in the balls. Hunter felt the day go from bad to worse as he is kicked in the balls, an action that causes him to lose focus and sink to his knees as he drops his crossbow, his hands moving down to cup his balls as he groans in pain.

As he sank to his knees he felt the urge to vomit though he fought back against it as he held his balls while watching the man he is after begin to take leave of the two. He tried to speak and call out to Berlious however as he tries to speak nothing comes out but a groan of pain. His gaze shifts to the person that had kicked him as she gives chase to his target, though given what she had said it sounded like she too is after this man. With what had just happened he knew this was not going to be an easy thing to accomplish if Iyla was willing to kick him in the balls and she seemed rather angry, though given how she spoke and acted Hunter figured the person that kicked him to be a man. Grabbing his crossbow Hunter musters enough strength to climb back to his feet and give chance after the two though he felt pain coarse through him with each step. Not only was he after Berlious but now he wanted to give the person that kicked him a piece of his mind or rather the same gesture that had been given to him though he could think of other things he would like to do to Iyla for the kick.

For a man as big as he was, Berlious sure ran fast, and to top it off, he was laughing at them. Mocking them! Glaring at the back of Berlious's head, she continued to make chase, and the second the man moved intot he shadows, her body shifted, and like the winds, she was suddenly moving through them with ease. The speed she exceeded as incredible, and in a mere second she was before the man and punching him in the face.

"Get back on the ground! I'm not done with you yet!" Though she hadn't expected it, the man kicked out her legs beneath her and Iyla found herself on the ground, a few extra pieces of fiery reddish blonde hair falling over her face. ANd a moment later, the ground shook and a crunching snap was heard as the behemoth of a man that was Berlious pulled out a tree from the ground- roots and all.

"I'm going to bash you with little boy!" Berlious cackled and slammed the tree over top of her- and Iyla was seeing starts. Hitting her a second, then third time, he let the tree drop over her body before he toook off again, giving Hunter the middle finger since Berlious was making a get away before he could even arrive on the scene!

Gripping his crossbow with it at the ready Hunter chased after the two, though only one of the two he truly gave chase to. He wanted to get the man he is after and perhaps give the man that kicked him int he balls a return kick and then with any luck be on his way to get his reward money. That sounded like a good plan to Hunter if only it would go that way for him.

Having been crippled momentarily thanks to the kick, Hunter had ground to make up in order to catch up with his target. Working to make up the ground he had lost thanks to Iyla he had started to grow frustrated at the situation. What he hoped would be a simple task as tacking down the man and rounding him up to be taken in had turned out to be an adventure of its own, a rather painful one at that.

Drawing upon the two he watches as Berlious uses a tree in the same fashion one would use a hammer to strike Iyla. Given what Iyla had done to him only moments ago, Hunter did not feel very sorry for the man that was being pounded by the tree. What concerned him was how Berlious was using the tree as if it where nothing to him. As Berlious gave him the middle finger while he begins to take off Hunter frowns at the man as he brings his crossbow up, pressing the stock against his shoulder as he takes aim at the man and fires, his target one of the man's legs in an attempt to cripple him and bring him down.

The crossbow's bolts hit true and Berlious went down, gripping his wounds as he cried out in agony. But Iyla, being too stunned to really notice, lay on the ground, trapped beneath the tree- and completely stunned and motionless-
and such a force knocked the cowl back on her cloak, revealing more effeminate hair beneath. THough with the mask drawn over her mouth,s he could still pull off the pretty boy look-
after all, her body was hidden behind wraps and leather...

and now a somewhat large tree. Ugh.

Hitting his mark with the bolt, Hunter watches as Berlious goes down from the hit and grips the wound. Seeing that Berlious had went down Hunter nods his head faintly and casts his gaze to Iyla as he draws closer to the woman stuck under the tree. Drawing closer he notices the cowl had been knocked off revealing part of her head, though only really her hair, something that did not sit well with the demeanor of a man.

Turning his attention back to Berlious he takes a moment to pull the string back on his crossbow and load another bolt into it, this time choosing a bolt that had a paralyzing agent on the tip of the bolt. He had brought his prey down for the moment though now he had to ensure that the man would not be putting up a fight. " Alright, let's try this again. " He says as he watches Berlious, though he couldn't help but glance to Iyla for a moment. Though he had been kicked in the balls by Iyla he did not think being beat and pinned by a tree was a good thing to have done to someone. Though he was not sure if he could do it, he lifts a leg and pushes his foot against the large tree, trying to push it off of Iyla, his crossbow still trained on Berlious.

visualspice

When Hunter gave the tree a kick in attempts to push and roll it off of Iyla, she let out a cry of pain. Though the tree did mve, it was sitll quite heavy. The man might have to give it a heftier push- which would be easier to do if he were positioned over top of it's center. Though turns out, that's exactly where Iyla now lay.

Though as she groaned and grit her teeth in pain, Berlious was doing the same, but by now, he was trying to get back on his feet.

Though he tries to push the tree off of Iyla he finds it is going to take more then just a simple push with his leg. " Just my luck.. " he grumbles lightly as he gazes down at Iyla for a moment as he tries to figure out how to go about doing this. His willingness to help the injured and pinned person was getting in the way of him getting his bounty though he did not think he should just leave Iyla laying here like this.

Turning his gaze back to Berlious he seen the man was already working to get to his feet so he could make his escape. " Hey, Hey. And where do you think you are going? " Hunter asks as he watches Berlious. " Why don't you get your ass over here and remove this tree and I'll think about not shooting you again. " he says while watching Berlious. He was the man that put the tree on Iyla in the first place so why not make him remove the tree as well? That sounded like a good idea, it meant he had to do little to no work in removing the tree from Iyla but he could take the credit for saving her.

Removing the tree was slow goings, and Iyla was growing desperate as she clawed at the wood, though when the question was asked of Berlious- even she knew it was a dumb idea. The large man just barked out a laugh and grabbed a nearby rock, one that was about the size of a football, and heavy, and hurled it towards Hunter's head.

Iyla's eyes went wide. She had barely managed to slip one leg out from underneath the tree as she exclaimed, "Watch out!"

Though it was indeed a bad idea, Hunter hoped the man would go along with the order and remove the tree from atop Iyla, that way he did not have to exert himself. He expected the man to laugh at him and protest against the order, perhaps even try to retaliate and as Berlious went for the rock Hunter seen that he would be doing the heavy lifting on his own.

Having already been put through a deal of pain one time today, Hunter did not want to get hit with the rock and with this desire he took measures to prevent such a thing from happening. Shifting to the side as Berlious threw the rock, Hunter takes aim at the man again before he fires his crossbow, his target the man's chest. Unlike the first bolt he shot the man with, this one had a paralyzing agent that should render Berlious incapable of taking action, or at least this is what Hunter thought.

Berlious let out a cry of pain. The shot would have proved deadly in the chest had the shadow seed not been residing within his body. The bolt went into the seed, however, the paralyzation took effect and the big man dropped to his knees, grabbing onto his trembling torso as he doubled over in pain.

Grunting, Iyla was working at trying to get herself free from the tree. one leg was still under it, and since she had her arms available she reached back to grab her spear and used that to help wedge the tree up. To her relief, it worked and she slipped her last leg free and rested her forehead against her arm while leaning into her weapon for support. Then as she did so, she realized her hood had come off and quickly worked at returning it over her  head. Had the man noticed? Hopefully not. This was a man's world and in Zantaric, it was ten times more dangerous to be a woman.

Wiping at the blood that had been trickling down her nose, she slowly rose to her feet and stared over at Hunter warily. She didn't see him as an ally, but was he a foe? She'd have to wait and see.

"Why are you hunting after this man?" she hissed, her voice coming out gruff from behind her half mask.

Having taken the shot at Berlious, Hunter watches as the man succumbs to the effects of the poison he had on the bolt. Given what the man had done before, Hunter was not sure if it would work and was not sure what he would have done if it did not work on him. With his target taken care of he turns his gaze back to Iyla and sees that she had managed to almost get out from under the long on her own. That was a relief, he did not have to do much to help her then again she had hit him in the balls so he felt he had all the right not to help her.

Keeping his gaze fixed on her he pondered more on why she had her face covered and had the hood, the only reason to do such a thing was to hide ones identity from others. This was something he gave some thought to, running around in some form of mask. As he watches he sees her realize the hood was off and hastily work to get it back up to cover her face, something that makes the man smirk faintly at. As he watches Iyla, he reaches down and rubs his balls some, still feeling sore from when she had kicked him earlier, listening to her as she spoke. He could hear the gruff tone of her voice, something to hide how she really sounded he figured. Grumbling softly he glances to Berlious " Well first off, you're welcome for me saving your life even though you did kick me in the balls. " he says as he turns his gaze back to Iyla. " Second, I am hunting this man because he is wanted... And seeing as how I brought him down after he beat the day lights out of you, I figure he is mine to turn in. You can go find your own. " he says with a nod, a light smirk taking form on his face " Though, I could possibly be persuaded to maybe split the bounty with you. " He says, slowly shifting so she would not have a clear shot at kicking him in the balls again.

Iyla's red eyes narrowed at him and she snapped the pointed end of her spear towards him, the tip glistening off the evening light.
"I make no negotiations and I work alone. This man is mine. You can not have him."

As the end of her spear shifted to point at him, Hunter glances to it for a moment and lets out a soft sigh as he looks back to Iyla. As she spoke he listens to her throw the idea of shearing the bounty out the window. Though she had done some of the leg work, Hunter seen the man as his given he had brought him down after she had been beaten bloody by the tree.

" I'm afraid that is not how I see it. " he says with a faint nod as he watches her closely now that she had her spear pointed at him. " While you lay under the tree I brought the man down. Hell, I practically saved your life. You should be thanking me and show some appreciation. I could have let him kill you after what you did to me back there! " Hunter exclaims, a slight tone of anger in his voice as he spoke to her.

Iyla narrowed her gaze at him and gave a warning thrust with the spear.
"That's not how the end of my weapon sees it. Now, casually walk away, head back to the Craggy Oak and forget what you've seen here. Find another bounty, there's probably plenty at the bar. This entire place is thriving with criminals and thieves. I doubt you'd be much at a loss. Now leave." ANd her voice was laced in a dangerous promise if he did not oblige, for she had no qualms with forcing him out of the picture, either.

Hunter glances to her speak for a brief moment as she gives a quick thrust with it, an action that makes it clear she may be willing to use the weapon. Bringing his gaze back to her face as she spoke, Hunter couldn't help but chuckle softly at the comment of her weapon not seeing it how he sees it, though he was connecting it with something else with a more dirty context. Though he knew she was right about being able to find another bounty in the tavern, he could not just leave the one he had already caught. He had put in the effort and now wanted to get paid. The tone in her voice makes him narrow his gaze and frown faintly at her. She was serious about this matter however so was he which posed a problem.

Dropping his gaze from her face, he glances to the spear for a moment before looking back to her " Perhaps if I had not done the hard part I would be willing to let it slide... " He begins while gazing into her eyes, " But I have already invested coin and effort into this man and now I have him in my grasp. " He adds as he lowers his arm and lets his crossbow fall to the ground before carefully taking a step closer to her, though he isn't able to move far since she had her spear pointed at him. As he steps closer he slowly brings a hand up, moving it close to the spear as he gets ready to deflect it if needed. " So babe, perhaps it best if we came to some form of deal because my weapon sees it my way. " He says, a faint grin taking form on his face at the mention of his weapon, though his had a more phallic connotation.
