The door of the shop swings ajar and Rockman strides out. Closing the door behind him, he looks further up the path into town.

Gforte growls as he stalks in, the expression adorning a cross between annoyance and worry "Where in the fuck is the little guy? I know he can’t of charged that much so quick."

Cruss walks into town and smiles, his Forest Green eyes shining, and his Sky blue hair flowing in the slight breeze. Wearing a red tunic, the young Hylian smiles at the feeling of the bright sun.

A trap door in the ground suddenly opens as Rachel crawls up. Noticing the people that have suddenly showed up, she decides to see what they're up to before saying anything.

Xempho Wanders in Rocket Town, seeming to look for something.

Falfadet exits the store behind Rockman, silently slipping up the road. Hey, she wasn't even in the store when he was in there a second ago!

Rockman sweeps his vision across the path to the throng of arrivals to the village.

Falfadet is suddenly swooping by Gforte, and he feels the breeze of her motion but does not see her. Woosh! Gone!

Gforte scowls at the suddenly larger number of people and shakes his head "This only makes it easier for him to hide. His charge won't last that much longer anyway."

Xempho coughs.

Smirking, Rockman says to Gforte, 'Having more trouble with your men?'

Falfadet is standing behind Xempho. 'Got a cold?' Now, she's standing in front of him. 'Might wanna get that cough taken care of.' And now she's gone!

Rachel narrows her eyes as she notices an unknown woman is rushing around the area. "She better watch it..."

Gforte says ' Shut it blueboy. For your information the men are under controll.'

Falfadet is standing behind Rockman. 'Or had you better watch her?' And now she's in front of him. 'Hee hee.'

Rockman stares into Falfadet's eyes. 'What's with you?'

Cruss smiled as he enjoyed this day, however he was curious as he noticed the fast moving woman running around. "I wonder what she's up to?" , He thinks to himself.

Falfadet says 'I'm looking for a scruffy little demonling.'

Falfadet zips out of sight at a blur, reappearing beneath Rachel, and peering up the trap door. 'Hey, kinda like that.'

Those of you who are behind Falfadet can see her drawing a katana from a concealed sheath behind her back.

Gforte says ' Though I'm drawn to ask, what did she do?'

Rachel jumps back with a snarl as the woman appears beneath her.

Falfadet says 'Who cares? It's a contract hit, heee heee heee.'

Xempho opens her eyes and snatches the katana with a whip.
Cruss gasps in surprise as his vision brought both Rachel, and then gaped as he seen the weapon being drawn. Cruss takes his whip and wraps it around the arm of the would be assailant.

Falfadet spins with lightning speed, severing the whip!

Falfadet says 'Hey hey, you'll have to wait your turn to collect the bounty on her head!'

Xempho says 'Bounty?'

Cruss says '"A Bounty? What did she do?"'

Falfadet says 'Ten thousand gold for whoever brings in her weapon, hee hee hee.'

Gforte growls and pulls out his buster, the unmistakable noise of a charging whine sounding "I hate bounty hunters."

Rachel narrows her eyes in anger. "I won't be easy to kill. Mind telling me who sent you?"

Falfadet laughs! HA! HAHA! 'Yeah right, like I'm about to tell you to sent me!' ZING! A dart sticks Rachel. 'Now go to sleep while I deal with your friends!'

Rockman levels his arm with Falfadet and shifts his arm into a buster. 'Never liked bounty hunters, myself.'

Rachel's eyes droop and she starts to fall forward.

Cruss held his whip prepared to use what was left to do battle. Killing for money just wasn't something he didn't think to be right. So he prepared to do battle and use the powers of the nature around them to help.

Falfadet catches Rachel in her arms as she falls out the trapdoor, and holds the sleeping hellion out to Gforte and Rockman. 'Hee hee, fire away at my little hostage if you like.'

Falfadet uncoils the whip from Rachel's grasp and stashes it in her ninja clothes - hey! Was there even room for that in there?!

Gforte growls and shakes his head grinning "Too bad I don't care about the hostage." then he dashes forwards and slides, trying to trip Falfadet.

Falfadet drops Rachel onto the ground, and zips aside. She blurs into view with her outstretched foot flying into Cruss' face!

Falfadet says 'I'm too quick, give it up!'

Sliding back on the ground Cruss shook his head and growled as he slammed his hand into the ground saying a word as plants began to grow.

Rockman readjusts his aim and fires a single shot towards Falfadet.

Gforte contacts with Rachel and brings up his buster, firing the charged shot off at Falfadet while growling "Damnit! Stop running and take your beating like a woman!"

Falfadet does a triple backflip, causing Rockman's shot to intersect with Gforte's in an impressive explosion. 'Eek, surrounded! I don't remember what the ninja code says to do! D:'

Xempho stops meditating and raises her left arm up. A beam of moonlight surrounds Falfadet and she begins to float, appearing to be stuck in mid air. Afterwards Xempho falls to the ground gasping for breath.

Falfadet says 'H, hey?! LET ME DOWN!'

Falfadet pulls out a fan of knives, flicking one at Cruss, one at Rockman, and one at Xempho! STAB STAB STAB!
Groaning, Rachel sits up, feeling groggy and having a massive headache. "What the fuck hit me after I fell..?"

Gforte shouts "EASY MONEY!" Before firing off a string of 5 shots at Falfadet

Smacking the knife aside with his forearm, Rockman ignites his dash boots and sails toward Falfadet, fist drawn back.

Cruss pulled the knife out of the arm it hit, the blood seeping from the wound. Cruss knew he would have to do something to help...it was then he cast Blind at the ninja woman
Suddenly rushing to her feet, Rachel's eyes widen as she realizes her rosier is gone. "Who..." Snarling in anger, she looks around for the ninja, ignoring the chaos going on around her. "Where is that damn dart throwing wench..."

An Immortal has intervened. UNLUCKY!

Gforte sighs.

Cruss then clutched his wound as it bleed.

Falfadet tumbles out of the tractor beam as Gforte's rapid fire burst assails both her and Rockman! BOOSH.

Gforte kicks the ball of fluff off of himself and begins to advance on the Ninja, buster raised and charging again.

Falfadet shakes off the blind spell, throwing another knife at Cruss as she hops to her feet. '... Whoa, hey, half of my outfit is burnt away.'

Xempho coughs up blood and doesn't appear to be in good shape.

Rattled by Gforte's assault, Rockman steps backward and shakes off the pain.

Rockman notices Gforte's advance and thrusts a foot into the back of Falfadet's knee, bringing her to a kneel.

Falfadet drops to her knees. Suddenly, a big lightbulb goes on above her head! Metaphorically of course, but then a magical lightbulb really does go off.

Falfadet says 'I just remembered what the ninja code says to do!'

Flying through the air, Rachel snarls at the reploid. "The damned ninja can wait." Dashing in front of the reploid that kicked her, Rachel throws up her hands and shouts, "Petal Blast" Causing foliage to blind him momentarily.

Rolling to the side, Cruss, dodged the new knife barely as it makes a cut in his red Tunic. It was then he used the growth he made to use his Geomancy to create Vines that lashed out to wrap around Falfadet. Brandishing his whip to continue fight

Cussing wildly, Gforte lets off his charged shot in the direction he was last going, and where Rachel is standing now.

A burst of thick, inky smoke swallows the immediate area just as entangling vines burst from the ground. Rockman and Gforte find themselves grabbed instead as Falfadet drops a smoke bomb!

Rockman wrestles with the leafy appendages.

'Tee hee hee hee!' Everybody feels fingers in their pockets, but as they turn to look, there's only black smoke! A gust of wind helps clear it, and Falfadet is gone.
Grunting in pain as the reploids shot hits her, Rachel goes flying through the air backwards, landing on the hard ground.

In place of his missing katana, Rockman finds... Falfadet's green-bladed katana. Scribed along the hilt in flowery letters is YU-GIRI, POISON BLADE.

Gforte cusses in a volume never thought possible, and grabs his claws, slicing and hacking the vines around him
