PTS: no magic.
Jackie wandered, exousted, through the midnight streets. Eventually she came to a large, public buiding. She went in, looked around, and saw chairs everywhere. It looked like this was a hotel of some sort, and the geusts were already in their beds. Jackie pulled two chairs together, trying to ignore the awful wracket in the still night. She collapsed across them, falling asleep instantly. Her face, subconciosly, twisted into one of pain and sorrow so unlike her usuall expression. She was having another night full of night mares of her past. She called out occasionally in her sleep, her face an unreadable mask.
Jackie was out hunting again, she was scarcly home anymore. She was out for a day and a night, coming back at dawn to find a charred spot on the earth, the only living person the one she'd considered her mother. Jackie ran to her, heard her last words, and watched her die, just out of reach...Jackie ran off screaming into the new day, then she was hunting again...
OOC: someone would've heard the racket and come down to see what it was, for an idea...

Samatha awoke, she had felt a sudden outburst of sorrow, loss. She stood, eyes blank. "Hello?" she called, "Is anyone down there?"

Jan woke instandly at the sound of someone entering the lobby. The young girl had curled up on the floor, hidden by some large potted plants that stood in the corner. She watched for a moment as the other person went to sleep on some chairs before trying to get back to sleep.
It was no use. Now that she was awake, she wouldn't get back to sleep for a long time. Instead Jan sat up and leaned against the wall, her glaive lying across her knees.
She was letting her mind rest, though her body refused to. Meditation was something that they had always stressed as something that a fighter could count on. Her mind was completely calm and blank when she heard a voice call out. Her calm was so complete that she didn't even become startled.

Craymen burst in with a dagger embedded in his arm and shouted for help.

Jan snorted as the man entered. Getting up, she went over to him. Taking ahold of his arm, she pulled out the dagger.
"Hold still." She said in a slightly annoyed tone of voice. Swiftly she bandaged the wound.

Samatha slowly trecked to the stairs. This being the place she had been staying, she knew evry inch. Smelling blood, she decended the stairs quickly.

Jan gave one last tug to the bandage and looked up to see another girl coming down the stair case. She meerly raised an eyebrow and returned to "her" corner and picked up her glaive.

Sam smiled politely, as she took the last step. "You are welcome to stay here, all of you!" she invited, "I just must warn you, this place may not be a happy one for most."

OOC: ooooh! a glaive!! pwetty!!
Jackie found herself woken by the noise at last, and sat up strait, immediatly covering her face with hardness once more. "You'll want me to pay for it, then?" she hadn't caught the latest comment.

Sam threw back her head and laughed, reveiling her blind, glazed over eyes. "No my darling," she cooed, "I ask of nothing. I have more then enough." She motioned around, to the food that covered the walls.

Jackie nodded, this would be a first...no money! pah! as if. This was probably a scam and they'd rob her in her sleep. Jackie's thoughts turned back to her nightmares, and she leaned back so that she could get her feelings under control without being seen.

Jan looked over the blind girl silently. She didn't comment as she was only planning on staying here for the night and moving on in the morning.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ OOC: Feel free to stop Jan when she tries to leave! And yes, the glaive is v. pretty ;D

Sam smiled. All these people are hidding something. "There are rooms upstairs, and your welcome to them," motioning to the stairs, she stepped into the room. "I don't get visitors very often," she explained. "If you have no place to stay, you can stay here for the rest of your life," she looked pointedly at Jan, "But I must warn you, feelings can get... strong around here."

Jackie looked at her strangly, her feelings were intense enough already.
