Sveta had a look in her eyes as she looked over to him. "Don't talk too much. They do not understand English and if they think we are plotting they will kill us. Just don't make any weapons for your weapon and you'll have to trust me." she was quick with her words and then held up both hands as they took hold of the boat. Motioning Trent to do the same. She was just as terrified as him. If Lu Ling wasn't here she would get them killed. If he was she'd still have to be very careful. He was not the friendliest. But he had promised her safe passage if she came traveling. She had saved him after all. She gulped hard as a man spoke fairly harshly at Sveta. She nodded. With a nod of her head she was motioning Trent off the boat. As the men patted down Trent and found him unarmed they turned to Sveta.  Her eyes grew wide at the comment. She barked back in their language and the men seemed to turn all attention to her.<br/><br/>She again said something very harshly and the man's face seemed to harden as he barked back and she shook her head and spoke back. She sure as hell wasn't charming and he could tell by the uneasiness she wasn't even trying to charm. Suddenly one of the men moved away from Trent and walked over to her. Pulling her shirt up and removing the weapons she had on her. He was rough and obviously didn't much care for anything else. Sveta's voice came out more calmly this time. "Lu Ling." And that seemed to spark an argument between the two. The other men stood quietly but they seemed to relax as Sveta's voice grew extremely harsh.<br/><br/>The argument went back and forth until Sveta hopped down from the boat and pushed her pointer finger into the man's chest and barked something in his face. The rather hefty man seemed to growl as his face was practically purple. He said nothing though as he waved to a man on the wall and he disappeared. The minutes that passed were in silence. Sveta's face was stone cold as she held her ground against the man. It felt like hours as it passed by when the gate suddenly dropped. A tall Chinese man walked out. His eyes landed on Sveta and he purred her name, but it was in English that he spoke. "Sveta! Great white healer, come to me at last." He purred out in a heave accent. His eyes drifting over to the American that stood with three soldiers around him. He waved his hand at the men. "My guests should be treated more kindly. Apologies." He purred out again, yet something about him even set Sveta to be uneasy. Sveta moved away from the round man she had been dealing with and took Trent's hand. Pulling him from between the men.<br/><br/>Her eyes then fixated on Ling as he smiled. "Come inside, dry off and have a hot bath. I will get you fed." Sveta hesitated at the offer. "Commander Lu. I only need supplies. We really should leave as soon as possible." She spoke softly now, but there was a timidness in her voice. Ling turned around and smiled at her, however it only caused chills up Sveta's spine. "Please, be a guest and stay for one night and then I will get you and your friend what you need." His eyes focused on Sveta before he smiled and waved them to follow. Sveta flinched a bit as her hand clenched onto Trent's. "Well this could be worse, They could just offer us a dungeon room." She muttered bitterly so only Trent could hear her.
