Hello hello hellooo!

Nods and cracks fingers

*Saguaro grumbles as he walks through the annoyingly crowded space every step he took he was bumping wings with some random dragon with no understanding of their surroundings. He strains his head up slightly above the crowd, looking for the bright red scales popping out from the crowd. The rainwing he'd been paid to watch over was annoyingly energetic and far too fast and skinny. They slip so effortlessly through the crowd looking at anything and everything as they pass for about 2 seconds before moving on. Saguaro was sure they were intent on completely leaving the half blind dragon behind completely.*

*His wing twitches at his side as he spots the red at the corner of his only working eye, quickly trying to work his way through the crowd to Cranberries side. Who's idea was it to put the half blind one in charge of the one person who seems dead set on moving constantly? He can't keep turning his head every five seconds just to make sure they haven't run off...*

Taipan trails through the market place, occasionally stopping at stores to sniff candles and look at large overpriced steak. Taipan continued to swirl around the market, his eyes only stuck on one thing, not a store or an item but a *Dragon*. He had gotten this bounty a few days ago and still wondered how such a stupid looking dragon could possibly have such a big bounty on their head. But Taipan shakes his thoughts away, his job is not to question, its to murder his opponent and take his prize. 

*Besides this dragon looks like an easy target* Taipan stretches his wings before growling at himself *This dragon could kill me even though they look wimpish, I know that!* He reminded himself before silently stalking Cranberry as they looked at a fruit stall. Though something caught his eye, not Cranberry but a dragon who was protectively standing behind them. *A guard, so cranberries not strong but this dragon is? Lets hope two dragons won't be hurt today, only looking to hurt my chosen bounty* 

**Sorry if it took too long
Robin
*A shiver runs down the sandwings spine. He'd always had a good idea of when someone was watching him. He kept his tail barb tucked away as to not accidentally stab some poor passerbyers. He looks back over at the rainwing for a second to make sure they're still swooning over some common dessert lizard before scanning the crowd as best he could. He strains his neck to look to his left, as always- cursing his left eye for having been the subject to a particularly brutal attack a few years back. It was hard to figure out who it was at first- almost everyone looked the same aside from a few multicolored dragons running through the crowd- trade partners most likely. His eyes do end up landing on someone eventually though. He squints his one working eye at a particular Sandwing in the crowd.*

*There wasn't anything that really looked all that different about them... It was just a feeling. Well. And the fact that he can SEE the dragon looking at him. He digs his claws into the ground, on edge.*

Taipan didn't move he raised his head his eyes sharp, he started to walk forwards, his body moving so slow and smooth it was like he was a ghost. Suddenly a Skywing merchant walked infront of him " Selling snakes, selling snakes!" The merchant called in an echoy voice. Taipan saw the option to slip away, so he did, it was like a magic act and he had just dissapeared from sight.

**(I DIDN'T MEAN TO PRESS GO, STILL TYPING)**
John
Taipan hides behind another store staring daggers into the guard. *Of course, this guard was more aware then he thought, if he wanted to keep this dragon unharmed he would have to find the Rainwing alone*. So quickly without a thought he slipped back into the crowd, this time covered in sand to make sure that *Nuisance* Didn't notice him again.

**Done this time- sorry again!**
Robin
*Saguaro was quick on his talons. He flipped around to look for cranberry again, only to find that the squirmy little thing had already ran off somewhere. Great! A suspicious figure staring at him and then disappearing and the one he's supposed to protect- his immediate assumption being from the stranger staring at him- disappearing AGAIN. He scowls as he shoved through the crowd in an attempt to spot the bright scales, trying his best to switch between looking behind him and Infront of him.*

*He bristles, stressed out as he shoves his wings out, pushing some of the dragons in his general area out of the way to give himself some space. He never thought he'd miss standing idly all day long at the castle doors. At least it was quiet there.*
John
Part one of his plan was complete, the guard was stressing out and that was a good sign. Cranberry had also skipped off, *Perfect* He hissed under his breath before padding to an allyway behind the marketplace. He found cranberry squeaking over a beetle, a common one infact. The dragon was distracted and the guard was behind for now, he could easily slice this dragon into sushi now. Taipan raises his wings in a ferocious position and does his attack stance in interest.

*This dragon doesn't even know I'm here, poor thing*. He slowly snarled before approaching, keeping his flank <— ( stomach ) towards the floor, his sand scales blended him in with ease. Now all he had to do was make like a taipan and strike.
Robin
*He hisses as he twists around, trying to check every street and stand he can. How could a creature so brightly colored be so insanely hard to find?!*

*He was milliseconds away from taking a wrong turn when he caught the tiniest glimpse of red and bright yellow through the crowd. He wastes no time darting over to the alleyway he saw it in, pushing through the crowd- his anxiety disappearing and being replaced with pure anger. He finally gets to the alley, ready to rush through it straight to cranberry- but he stops in his tracks. Or more, was stopped in his tracks by somebody else. He huffs as he tilts his head to the right to get a better look at the sandwing. Definitely the one he'd seen in the crowd.* 

*The first thing he notices is that the dragon appears to be older than him. By 10 years at least- probably more. That was a bit of a worrying thought. It meant whoever this stranger was likely had more experience than him. And two working eyes at that. Saguaro had fought older dragons in battle and he was anything but average when it came to strength.. But the key word is 'was.' He hadn't had a proper, real fight since his eye was cut. Of course he'd had some friendly battles with his co workers... He couldn't be caught getting nervous now. He flexes his claws before lunging at the older dragons back, careful to avoid the tail as much as possible. He knew a sting wouldn't kill him but it'd still hurt and catch him off guard.*
John
Taipan swiftly turns at the sound of crunching sand, a dragon leaped straight at him, Taipan was thrown onto the ground. He easily pushed Saguaro of him, Taipan lifted his barb and neared it towards his opponent, quickly baring his sharp teeth. Taipan couldn't believe this dragon found them. *Good thing no one can see us..* If someone did see this battle his plan would be blown.

He opened his mouth to let out a calm and deep voice "Red is a good color for Cranberry, it will hide the **Stains**" He snarled kicking sand onto Saguaro's face, "Hopefully that blinds your other eye!" He hissed before once again disappearing into the crowd. 

*Now this dragon deffinetly knows i'm after Cranberry!*
Robin
*He hisses as he digs his nails slightly into the opponents scales, not too deep before the sand is thrown into his face. He hears a loud yelp of surprise somewhere behind them as he shuts his eyes and tumbles off of the dragon, rubbing at them to try to get the sand out.*

*He groans as he opens his eyes, immediately getting up and shoving cranberry along with his wing, forcing the rainwing back into the crowd. He looks around them constantly for any sight of the attacker before focusing his eyes on a nearby guard. He shoves the rainwing over to the guard and barks. "Don't go running off again, like an idiot!" *He hisses at Cranberry before angrily going on to the guard about getting the rainwing out of the crowd as quickly as possible, before spreading his wings and flying up into the air. He scans the crowd as he tries to spot the sandwing... A difficult task indeed.*
John
He gave a chuckle before throwing sand on his wound, one of the many things he learned was that you had to hide wounds to seem stronger. *A rookie* He looked at the guard. He frowned *A strong rookie*. Taipan crouches only to see the rainwing next to another Guard.

He coughed to himself "Tsk tsk, poor guard" He flew above one of the shops and hid at the top, staring at the **NPC** Guard. Quickly jumping down and lightly slashing their neck, not to deep to murder, only to give them pain.

*Now he could try and kill the RainWing*
