Scarlet took a step into the shadow, the eyes on him washing his skin in a killing intent. Yet even though they had tried to hide their glaring golden eyes scarlet spotted them, watching him from around a corner.
'Hmm so we have wolves in the guild now. Let's hope they don't cause any issues with the Fay, wouldn't want to break that up.
I'll look into it later."
Scarlet added a new item to his ever expanding mental todo list, but this could wait to be done. Right now he had a more important task in catching the person responsible for the attempt on Ayden Blacks life.
As usual he decided to use the same trick that he always does and took one more step sliding into the wall into a hidden passage way that lead to a secret scout unit entrance about a mile out along the wall, making people wonder how he simply disappeared putting a smile on his face every time.
While many would rush to get things done Scarlet was not one of them. His thinking that has served him well over his many years was that if you rush you miss things that could well cost you yours or someone else's life.
After walking for about 20 minutes scarlet came to the exit point into the plains, but stopped short of the door because the trap he had set near the door was triggered meaning someone had recently passed through here.
'Couldn't of been more than an hour or two.' Scarlet thought as he examined the dust on his finger after dragging them across the ground near the trap.
*beep*beep*beep*
Typing in a short pin on a keypad hidden in the wall a few feet back from the exit, a small piece of the wall slide open revealing a computer powering up.
After navigating quickly through the menus on screen a video began to play showing a man quickly running through the hallway. As he approached the exit his face was able to be clearly allowing scarlet to put a face to his target.
"have you found their trail yet? Or have you lost your touch?" Scarlet seemed to yell at nothing.
*"I've followed it out about 5 miles till i lost the trail, but there is a river close by so i had some people walk the shores to find any sign that someone got out. We should hear something when we get back to where i lost them." A sweet voice came out from around one of the many tall rocks that hung into the hallway, creating a blind spots.
A green eyed beauty stepped out, her attire showing that she was part of the scout team and a high ranking one at that.
Strapped across her back was a bow and quiver covered be a wax cloth, dyed a matte black to keep it from being to reflective in the fields. When one looked closer they would also see a number of dangers strapped around her body, all easily accessible and seemingly more where you couldn't see; a strange site when the innocence one feels when looking at her face framed by her long blonde hair braided and pulled back in a ponytail like the images of the Valkyrie of olde.
"Ok let's head out, see if we can catch up or at least figure out where they went."
*"Sir!"
"Lead the way"
Opening the exit the two scouts set off at a blinding pace, each in their own way.
Thorns eyes began to glow and change from green to a piercing pale blue, feathers began to grow across her back and neck changing her face into that of a falcon and wings sprouting from slits in the back of her leather armor.
Thorn worshipped the god Horus the falcon headed god, lord of the air. While the ability to transform was a great boost for her the main ability that made her so strong was the {Divine Sight}, this gave her the ability to see everything with perfect clarity.
As she took to the air she let forth a mighty gust of wind as her wings lifted her up above the trees in front of her.
Scarlet on the other hand pulled out a Haze Cyrstal from the pouch around his waist. He stuck is thumb into his mouth and bit down drowning a small amount of blood that he rubbed across the crystal.
"Summon" as he spook that one word the air around him seemed to be drawn into the crystal as he tossed it i front of him.
"Take form oh beast of myths {Beast Summon}, three horned Przewalski"
As the wind and dust settled a strange beast had taken form reminiscent of a unicorn but also not. A black horse with three horns radiating power stood in place, waiting for its master!
