"Do you need any help?"

Selena looked up to see a tall young man looking at her. [i]"Crap! I'm caught! Err...remember, do not make a habit of saying 'crap' whatever that is."[/i] she thought to herself.

"I-" She said before cutting herself off [i]"I must go with caution about what I'm going to say here. That face, that...voice, is just...I can't describe it...not frowning like Master Dos- err...'father's,' but not friendly either like Richard's. It like it's missing in both, like it's its own thing. Point is I can't really see if I can trust this guy, sure he looks rather weak...but...you never know."[/i] 

Selena took more than just a few seconds to think of a reply. [i]"I gotta be careful, but I can't just ignore him, I'll have to think up an answer now because ignoring is bad."[/i] She quickly glanced at her chest [i]"Even if I say the wrong thing, my stuff should be fine. Even then, I'm just going to lie, just in case."[/i]

"No." She said with a slight hint of hesitation, "No, I...think I'll be-" [i]"No, I can't lie, he just doesn't look like someone Master -there it is again- father would know, so I'll just trust him a bit...just a little bit, if I don't feel safe, I could just take out the knife and run, right? Just be a little more honest, just a bit."[/i]

"...actually I could use some...assistance...I'm kinda new to this city and I might need some help knowing the whereabouts of...pretty much everything." Selena said. [i]"Once again, if I don't feel safe, just take out the knife and run."[/i]
