Cait swore under her breath, the man at the bar had obviously figured out that she'd taken his money. She thought momentarily of running but a quick glance around told her there were city guards nearby and so far the man wasn't making a fuss. She pulled her hood a little lower over her eyes, trying to obscure her face a little more in case she was going to have to make a run for it. The man would have to make a very convincing argument for her to part with the coins. 

She whirled around and shot him a charming crooked half smile, [color=00BFFF]"I suppose I can spare a moment, but just a moment. I'm afraid I'm not local, if you're looking for directions."[/color] She was momentarily distracted by the man's ring again, something about it called to her. She grabbed the ring she wore on a chain around her neck. [color=00BFFF]"Interesting piece you've got there. How'd you come by it?"[/color]

It couldn't be like hers...or could it?
