** Obviously Maximus gave himself the short end of the stick due to him being stuck here waiting for meat, while waiting he slowly picks his head up and stops tapping on the table to look around at the other meat venders and anyone selling any rope or shackles or anything of that sorts, still listening due to his spell he casted (one turn left) and using his sense of smell and hearing**

```Couple glares again as Uggy climbs down the statue, but same as before nobody really bothered him. He passes through the area easily and approaches that chosen alleyway. It's rather dark in this one.
In fact there's somebody passing through already, a young man with arms full of fresh produce... Alone. A prime target. Best to follow him in case the convict strikes.

Maximus doesn't really see much as he turns around... Except a hooded figure breaking off from the group and heading to an alleyway - which, unbeknownst to him, is the same location as Uggy and the person he's following.
The hood covers up most of the person's face, but the body shape is feminine. And there was a curious stench about the person, like old blood. Absolutely nothing you should be smelling when browsing meat.
The butcher turns back to Maximus after reading through the ledger. "Canifor tend to prefer meats that can be safely eaten raw, at least in my experience," She explains. "Often red meat, like venison or beef. But..." She continued, but quietly; "There was a Canifor woman in a hood who asked me for... Flesh. Not 'meat' but 'flesh'. Scary type, wore a hood. Weirdest request that I've ever had."```

Uggy spots the young man with fresh produce... Alone. Uggy is tempted to maybe take any leftover coins he has from grocery shopping. He decides that it wouldn't be much harm to follow the man and attempt to make some side cash. He cautiously sneaks around the alleyway way following the young man trying to stay stealthy as possible.

** Maximus signs and says** "Listen I got to go thank you for the help il ummm be back later for some meat but right now I have to go and meet someone" ** Maximus then starts quickly moving towards the Alleyway taking out his claws and reaches for his bow and readys an arrow casting triple arrow on the arrow**

```Uggy might notice somebody following the lone man into the alleyway. A feminine hooded figure, stepping almost silently and following at a normal pace. Another thief, or the perp they're looking for?
Just as the figure comes into vision, it stops, turns its head, and glares directly at Uggy... Then turns around to go back.
Unfortunate for this individual, turning around ended up putting them in the path of Maximus. She realises this and turns around again to bolt, running past Uggy and in the direction of the lone person. She's going to attack him.```
Mildred
Not on Uggy's watch! That was Uggy's side pocket money! Uggy shoots out a **Plague Bolt** Directed toward the running figure. 
`Cast Plague Bolt. 81.25/100. 10 mana restored from past 4 turns.`
Cora
** Maximus aims low towards the legs while rushing toward her, has hit and run which allows for moving shots with no accuracy penalties and triple arrow is still enabled** " Uggy disable them!" ** He says **

```The figure begins to move in a curious blur, as if they were melding with the shadows and moving in several directions at once. In the process they manage to dodge the incoming attacks - all of them - and the figure closes in on the victim.
Her hands recede from her robe's long sleeves and reveal a pair of small curved blades, similar in shape and structure to khukuri knives, and she closes in quickly on the target. By the time the man turned around it was too late - one of the blades was already in his chest, and the other cud's deep into his belly and spills his guts all over the alley floor.
The figure watches as the man bleeds out, then turns her head to the duo that tried to attack her. Sights were set on Uggy, the smaller target, and she starts running for him next.```
Mildred
*Kekekeke!* Uggy would snicker as another game started to play! First, he attempts to tumble to the side while **Creating a whip seed.** If he successfully dodges, he'll throw the whip seed at a spot adjacent to where he thinks the woman is going to land. From his other hand, he'll start to take out about 30 caltrops from his pockets.
`Cast Whip Seed for 10 mana. 71.25/100`
Cora
** Maximus would throw his bow off to the side and take out his dagger putting it in his mouth sideways to hold to it . He then jumps on the wall and latches on with his claws and begins crawling across quickly it to get closer to her without being in her path**

```The figure stops running for Uggy as she notices him creating the whip seed, and changes course for Maximus on the wall, running in his direction instead. She leaps at him with both daggers up in ice pick grip, attempting to stab him against the wall if she manages it.
Good with knives, eh? Wait... Is it even the Canifor?```

*Maximus seem her jumping at him and instantly retracts his claws making him fall from the wall, while he is falling he quickly grabs and throws his only dagger her way, due to (Hit and run he has no accuracy debuff) falling to the floor landing on his back and banging his head pretty good on the ground enough to kinda knock the wind out if him*
Mildred
Due to the figure redirecting her course, Uggy would tumble and hold onto his whip seed. Maximus would throw his dagger directly at the figure, Uggy takes this as sign to throw the whip seed at the wall in front of the woman. He uses his other hand to throw down about 10 caltrops underneath and behind where the figure would land if they decided to dodge backwards.
Cora
```She gets hit by the dagger landing in her back, and quickly leaps sideways off the wall, her own blades grinding against the stone and making sparks. The figure gets some distance from the pair before transferring one knife to the other hand to free one, then reaches to pull Maximus' dagger out of her back.
The blood on the end of the blade glistens in the pale light, but the figure doesn't appear to fixate on it. She instead turns back to the group.
"You're after us, aren't you?" She asks, tossing the dagger back toward the pair. "The death row convicts."```

*Maximus quickly gets up, as he gets up the dagger comes flying by and cuts his leg, he then uses Healing Touch (Variable Mana)(Minor would)* " Yeah we are and it seems you are one of them"
85/100 mana
Mildred
Uggy hops up and down a bit at the woman's question! "Yeah! Yeah! 10 gold, 10 gold!" He'd say as he **Launches a Plague Bolt at the woman.** Although it was weird. How did all these death row baddies escape? 
`Cast Plague Bolt for 3.75. 72.5/100. 5 mana restored`
Cora
```The woman lets Maximus heal himself, but doesn't let Uggy hit her with the bolt, stepping to the side to avoid it.
As she moves aside it becomes clear that she's standing where the man was killed, but his body's gone now. Where did it go?
"I won't let you hurt her," She says. "You'll have to kill me first, and we're not letting you do that either."
'We?'
Oh.

Someone else appears in the alleyway, rounding the corner and peeking first before creeping in. The eyes glow in the darkness, suggesting this is a Beastkin race - animal eyes often have a reflective layer in the back that allows better dark vision, so it stands to reason that some Beastkin would share that trait.
But it wasn't two eyes. It was one eye... Matching the description of the Canifor convict. If that's the case, then it also means the other one is the Dark Elf.
But why are they together? Unless...

Oh... Oh! Right.

The Canifor assumes a low stance, creeping forward and standing crouched beside the Dark Elf. Her piercing eyes glare straight at Maximus. "I want the cat," She says hungrily. "He looks... Tasty."
The Dark Elf smiles. "Enjoy your meal. I'll get the other one."```

**Maximus thinks for a second "" Cat?"" He think, and the it hits him and he instantly takes his claws out and starts to scurry up the wall** "Uggy I think we need to rethink out plan!!!"
Mildred
*Kekeke* "20 gold! 20 gold!" Uggy would take in delight that the bad guys would come to him and Maximus! "No more chasing, no more chasing!" Uggy **Creates a Fog Seed** In his hand and throws it between himself and Maximus. Using his other hand, he wields his steel dagger and positions himself to the right of where he'd just been. Uggy hoped in this dense fog, Maximus would have enough time to go back and re-equip his bow.
`Fog Seed for 10 mana. 62.5/100`
Cora
** Maximus quickly leaps off the wall and gets near his bow quickly stringing and arrows and taking aim trying to get a target**
