The pale girl in the sky-cloth pulled an odd stick out of her hair and started fidgeting with a knob sticking out of one of the walls. There was an audible click and the wall swung into another long, skinny room. We froze for a moment then the wild tanned girl started down the hallway. We were walking slowly and carefully but as we turned the corner she was enveloped in the arms of an ancient looking man. She froze then a loud piercing scream flew out of her mouth. I sunk into a crouch that would allow me to flow freely in any direction and pulled my best made dagger out of my boot. I shifted to the side so I wouldn't hit the girl with my dagger and gripped it tighter. I growled at the man. "Release her. Or I will stab you." He let go of her and took a step back, looking afraid.
