Thanking the milkman, who took his coins and walked away, Ladeaux began to turn back to go into the house.
"Excuse me," said a calm voice.
She turned around.
An offical-looking man, slightly heavy with a thin mustache stood on the doorstep. From a pocket inside his heavy, subtly and ornately embroidered waistcoat, he produced a slightly crumpled, cream-colored paper. "Have you seen this girl?" he asked, finger tapping the sheet. It was a wanted poster, with a sketch of a vaguely familiar-looking person on it. It was a girl, if the hips and breasts were accurately drawn. Ladeaux squinted at the poster. A vague suspicion came over her. Was this Luna?
The two men standing slightly behind the official shifted.
The picture wasn't very accurate, but glancing down, she saw the name.
Thinking for a moment, she slowly said, "No...I don't believe so."
The man looked at her a moment, then tsked and briskly stuck the poster back into his pocket. Turning without a thank you or a good day, he and the goons turned and left. Going into the house, Ladeaux looked into the box by the door. She knelt down and carefully chose several small gears and springs, what appeared to be tiny feathered wings, a syringe, and a dark bottle marked with a swirly line.
Glancing around, she inserted the syringe into the bottle and drew a small amount of a very thick, light blue substance. Tinkering with the gears and springs, she attached them to the syringe, which flapped slowly at first in her hands, before speeding up.
"Go get those three men," she whispered to it, opening the front door and throwing it out. She watched through the window as it flapped, gaining speed and altitude, flying off towards the people who were now just three smudges next to a carriage.

Ladeaux gripped Luna's arm. "Um...actually, it might be better if you don't go out for a while," she said nervously, eyes flicking around. She made a subtle face at Hanxi. He made a face back at her, behind Luna that said "Oh my god. You used THAT??"
"Oh, you know what? I think the gate is opened. Let me go fix that," he said, going out the door.
He walked quickly towards the main gate, thanking the powers that be that they lived relatively far from everyone.
The carriage had left, and he worried, wondering what would happen when they discovered the dead men.

Luna was hesitant a moment, but forced herself to. since he told me too...She thought to herself. "I used to be someones slave." She began slowly. "A rather popular God father, but other people wanted this man dead." She explained to the, looking at the ground a moment. "So he bought me, training me to be a fighter. Tought me to kill." Luna winced at it the word. "I went everywhere with him, protecting ever side of him, but yet, it wasnt enough for him. He than turned to the...Slave arenas. Every day, I was pushed to the limit. Until one day, I got to the final round...It was a kid. younger than my age. He was breathing heavily, and some of his fingers were broken. We fought almost endlessly, until he final fell to his knees in exhaustion. A rising of "Kill him" began to circle around us, but I only looked at him. I couldnt do it. Not to the poor kid. "No." was all Icould say. I wouldntbringmyself to do it. I was finally pulled out of the rink, my master was furious...Ordering his men to whip me. After the 7 hit I took, I spun around and looked at them, teleporting myself away. Thats whenI found a sewer system." She told them, a small uneasy chuckle and a smirk on her face. "And now he wants to get me back. Or kill me. Whatever he wants to do, he is going through odds and ends to get me. He probably bribed those police officers..." Luna sighed, looking at them with a frown. "And if they know where Iam, they will most likely be back. I just dont want to put you two in danger..." Luna's hands clenched at the thought of it.
((GOD That was so hard to come up with...Im sorry its so damn long. Sorry! sweatdrop ))
