It is amazing how much lust can motivate a person. I said, as he helped me down from the tree. It was the truth, after all. He is a man of sin, of stupidity, greed, pride and envy. I perched on the tree branch as he slipped down and landed on his feet, and held out his arms to catch me. I slid down from the tree, letting him catch me in his arms. I waited for him to put me down, and I rearranged my kimono again.
Where are we going, out of curiosity? I wondered aloud.

I had caught her, but her face was very close to mine. I could smell her, she smelled of sweat and smoke and something sweet. Perfume, perhaps. Whatever it was, it was alluring to me. I put her down, not looking at her as I went to my knapsack. I withdrew a canteen, half full of water and offered it to her.
I made a small noise at her question, almost sounding like a laugh. "Well, little lady, I don't exactly know what you were planning. I took you with me because I feared you would be captured too easily. But now I don't really know what to do with you. To be honest, I thought you would've left me by now. I mean, you don't even know my name." I gave a shrug and then a smile. "Or if I am a good guy or bad guy. For all you know, I might just sell you to a brothel and make a pretty penny off you, cherry girl."
I knew this would get her mad. Or at least tick her off a little.

I gratefully took the canteen and gulped down some of the water before handing it back. I took up my parasol, fan, pipe and sandals. I carried the sandals, as my feet were still massively sore from the running. I might even have some blisters... felt like it, but I would deal with them for now. I'd need to clean them and bandage them later. The forest was not a good place to do such things.
I could have taken off. But you are far more equipped to handle the forest then I am. Even if I didn't get captured by the search party, I'd still be in trouble if I encountered a bear or a pack of wolves. As for now, it's in my best interests to stick with you.
When he mentioned the brothel, I gave a light twitch of my mouth. Was he trying to make me mad? My eyes glittered as I looked at him.
Really? If you were a bad guy you would have handed me over to them for more then you'd get for me at a brothel. Or you'd keep me for yourself, or do something like rape me while I was unconscious. So far you've gone out of your way to help me... bad people don't do that. I chuckled. You're a good man, even if I don't know your name. I may be a dancer, but I'm not thickheaded enough to be blind when someone is helping me-- or to be ungrateful for the aid.

Well she wasn't dumb at least. I ran a hand through my hair, exhaling a bit. "Or I may be extremely twisted, giving you a glimpse of hope before doing something horrible for you," I paused, looking at her now. She looked at me now giving me an icy look. I couldn't wipe the grin off my face.
"But I'm not…sick enough to rape you. What do you take me for?" I laughed. Sure, this woman was pretty, I had to admit, but I wasn't thinking of raping her. I laughed again.
"Besides, I have people searching for me too. I'm not exactly the greatest guy, but I don't think it'd be totally safe if you stick with me," I admitted. It was true, my face holding as much honesty as I could. I shook my head, gathering my things. It'd be best to leave now. I looked to her, wondering if she would really stick to me or not.

I yawned. We've been walking for how many hours? The sun was beginning to rise, giving the sweet sky a sherbet appeal. I licked my lips hungrily before stopping. I was going crazy. My stomach growled and my legs were tired. My eyes were heavy too. I couldn't imagine what the female would be feeling. Probably worse.
"It's best we stop. It won't do us good to keep on considering our state." I was relieved. After I said this, I immediately threw my bag to the floor and sat. I breathed for a minute, to organize my thoughts before looking back at her. "I'll go hunt for something," I said, though quieter this time.
I got back up with a grunt, not wanting to get back up but moved to unhook my bow from the bag. I took out a quiver with a few arrows and looked at her to stay put before I trekked into the forest some. I trusted her with my belongings. After all, there wasn't anything important in there. Just hunting supplies and survival tools. I kept money in my boots, so there wasn't anything wealthy in there. I never liked to carry expensive things when I hunted in case I got into trouble. I wafted in for twenty minutes before stopping, waiting by the trunk of the tree. I sat for fifteen minutes crouched like that, patiently biding my time until I heard movement. Something, anything to shoot at that I and that woman could eat. Finally I heard something small. I knew it was a rabbit from experience and shot into the brush. I didn't wait and went over to my kill. I had shot it through it's stomach. It was still alive, twitching with pain and fear. I felt a bit bad having to snap its neck. I waited another ten minutes for another poor animal to meet its end, but nothing came and I came back to the woman with a disappointed look with one rabbit in hand. We'd have to share their meal, it seemed.
I made a small apology for the smallness of my catch before I went to set up a small fire and then skin the rabbit. It was easy enough, considering that I've done this for myself many a times. "I hope you don't mind," I murmured, having gone quiet. I wouldn't know if a dainty-looking woman like herself would've minded eating such a thing. Once the rabbit was roasted, I ripped the meat apart with my hands before handing her one half. I ate the other half politely. Despite the way I seemed, I was rather mannerly the way I ate.
[ again, crap post is crap. i am going to sleep. we'll see my availability about posting tomorrow. ]

((It's okay. Have a good sleep!))
I had fallen into a sort of meditative trance as we walked, focusing on the ground so I did not step on any sharp sticks or stones or walk into any thorny bushes.
I was pulled out of it as my companion, showing his fatigue, decided to stop and rest. The moment I pulled out of my focused state, all the pain, fatigue, hunger and soreness from my trials hit me like a ton of bricks. I jabbed the end of my parasol into the ground to keep me upright as I swayed where I stood.
I looked about, the tiredness weighing down my eyes and mind, and the pain screaming in my legs as I sought a place to sit. There-- a patch of moss at the base of a tree would do better then plain dirt ground. I stepped over to it and settled down, tucking my legs underneath me and arranging my kimono neatly around me.
By the time he returned with the rabbit, I was already out light a light against the tree. I had fallen asleep with my back against it and my head bowed forward.
I woke to the smell of roasted rabbit. I squinted warily at the food as he pulled it apart with his hands, and I gratefully took it from him with an accompanying growl from my stomach. I was too tired and too hungry to care about the state of the meal-- I was just happy to have it.
I are it daintily, trying to keep the juices from staining my clothes and keeping too much of them from getting on my hands. I blearily noticed that he was a polite eater himself, as I nibbled on some meat attached to a bone.
I ate almost the entire thing, save for the bones. When I was done I licked my hands clean in a catlike way, rather then wipe them on my kimono, before I curled up. I rested my head on my arms and fell asleep with the silks of my kimono draped over me.

I had made a small face as I spied her in the corner of my eye. She looked…extremely fatigued. It would do her well to sleep. I myself was tired as well, however, I wouldn't let myself sleep. I had begun to question the nature of picking this woman up. Did I make a mistake in taking her with me? All because she was intriguing in some way?
I made a sigh, closing my eyes to give me the quick pleasure of doing so. But no, I could not sleep. Not when being chased. And not when he could thoroughly trust this woman. I ran a hand through my hair, a habit of mine. I loved having my hair played with. Even as a young lad. I sighed again before opening my eyes ago. She was out like a candle. But for me, I snuffed out the fire. I went back into the forest, a few trees away from where partner lay, with my bow. But instead of hunting, I climbed a tree and waited. I listened for a sign to tell me of movement. There were certainly search parties out there, looking for the dancer. But he knew they weren't stupid and saw no signs of a fire or human life. I was frustrated, to say the least, but I wouldn't let my nerves get to me. I waited for the woman to wake up again to come down. We'll have to keep moving when she woke up.
