...Murdock...
~Zahara stepped out the front door of the mayor's home. There was no life within that house except the family dog, which she had no heart or time to murder as well. She quickly darted into the safety of the shadows, wishing for the ability to climb up walls. She picked up the pack she'd left lay previously in that precise alley. She peered inside, making sure everything was in order and whispering to herself.~ "Spare poison, check. Blades, check. Coin, check. Mind..." ~She paused with a wry smile.~ "Double check. All right, all I need to do is get Murdock and get out of here." ~She hissed as she heard the clop of a guard's boots on the pavement. Looks like I can't be conventional then. She climbed the lattice and vines growing on the side of the deceased mayor's home. She made it to the roof and watched quietly as the guard made his route. She slung the pack over her shoulder and began leaping rooftops.~
~You were snapped out of your trance as Zahara slipped through your window acrobatically. She exhaled with a light grin.~ "Hello Murdock!" ~She panted.~ "Ready to leave I see? Good." ~She unclipped her own pack and it fell to your floor with a thud. She sat down next to you, trying to catch her breath.~ "Harsh harsh harsh!" ~She inhaled sharply.~ "Who would think jumping rooftops to be so hard?" ~She chuckled and swallowed, regaining her wind.~ "Well..." ~She paused.~ "Do we leave now or at the crack of dawn tommorow? Either one poses difficulties." ~She shrugged.~ "Your call mate."
