Mekoa surveyed the child and her desperate attempt to catch the thief. She chuckled to herself, her smile turning coy on her flawless features. If her master had wanted this child so, he could have obviously chosen a better one... But her job still needed to be accomplished, it had been so long without any sport...<br/>The child ran into her and she gave a grunt of surprise.<br/>"I'm sorry"<br/>"Its alright, child. I know you were just trying your best..." Mekoa replied gently. The perfect set up. She could simply dispose of the child now, but there were too many witnesses. Masking her calculating mind with a concerned face she decided to play mother for a bit. "Oh my! you look positively<span style="font-style: italic">exhausted!</span>" she cried out, weaving in a subtle spell just in case the girl wasn't tired already. "Come, there is an inn not far from here. I'm certain you could stay there until you're fully rested."
