"No I want you to stop resisting and give up! You moron, you're the one killing innocents, so even if I was evil, you insist on using evil to stop me? How contradictory of you... Just what exactly is the meaning of the robberies in the first place?!?"

I force my jutte down, to hook onto his wrist and attempt to wrench him onto the ground by taking control of his arm.

trying to attempt to hit the thief the thief is still running. He seems to be more focused on escaping then on hearing beanbaker's insults. He quickly turns into an alleyway.

I put away my jutte and give full chase into the alley. He seems too focused on something else, and I am going to get to the bottom of it.

when you get to the alleyway the person is gone, a clunk can be hear from above, and looking up, you can see that there are marks on the walls that look new.

"Fast... too fast maybe..."

I attempt to find a way to climb the wall. If that doesn't work, I would continue down the alley to find some other way up or a way out in general.

attempting to climb the walls seems fruitless. Continuing to follow the noise, beanbaker looks up to see the figure running from roof to roof. He appears to be chewing something, and as he does so, he seems to be getting more energy.

I continue down the alley, looking up to make sure I stay on the thief's tail. Hopefully there could be a low roof that I can easily access and ambush him there. If not, I may need to find something to throw at him to knock him off balance and send him down to my level.

Soon the line of buildings end, but this does not hinder the thief's movements. He soon heads out of the town and into the rural area. He looks to see beanbaker still following him. As such he jumps into trees to try to lose beanbaker.

"Geez man we can talk this out, but running just makes you more of a criminal!"

I try to jump onto a couple of thick branches to make chase in the trees. Hopefully if I cannot catch him, he'll lead me to where he is going, or to some sort of trail.

"you fool!" Without more warning the thief makes his way out of the tree tops to slash at beanbaker. However, beanbaker seen it coming and was able to block it from hitting hard by putting up both arms. As the blade slams down into the arms of beanbaker, the armor gets highly contorted on the arms, but not much more is done. they both fall to the ground as the scrap resumes.

"Seriously, why are you stealing from the bank? You seem to be more focused on something rather than your own personal gain. If you are being extorted or someone is being held ransom, we can help!"

I hold my jutte between my fingers and in the air, and raise my other arm in defence. If he decides to strike again, I plan on countering with a swift blow to the chest.

"Why would I tell a fool like you anything? You are not worthy to know anything about me, or my reasoning."
He quickly goes in for a powerful kick to the stomach but his foot is caught and he is dragged inwards before being pounded hard in the stomach by the jutte. Coughing up a lot of saliva and a tiny bit of blood, it is clear his body is under immense stress. Without much of a pause though he retaliates with a fast diagonal upwards slash onto beanbaker that lifts him off the ground and causes beanbaker to bleed out as the armor could no longer hold up to the injury.

Spoiler:

The thief does not wait around much longer as he goes to make his retreat yet again.

I give chase again, hoping this time to drive him into the ground with a tackle or to kick him out by his feet. "This is getting stupid. Just give up. Better you deal with me than my superiors."

Koku · Posted: Sun Jan 18, 2009 4:16 pm Post subject:

Trying to catch up seems useless until the thief stops for a second, just to pull out a bottle that he unplugs. He splashes the contents into beanbaker's eyes before starting to run away again. Beanbaker now poisoned manages to get a glimpse of the man running towards validus. A couple minutes back beanbaker can not fully catch up, but at least knows the general direction of the man.

I sit down and pull out a fortis bulb left over from the adventures up north and rub it on my eyes.

"Validus. This isn't good. Without Schmall around and the Dragons hanging out in their tower there is just no telling what may happen. Oh well."

With the man (I assume) out of site, I walk casually into the town. I look for the nearest person that may have seen the man run by.
