 After taking a minute to gather 11 of her butterflies Sinai and Alucard were off in hot pursuit. The coward who ran away had gotten pretty far, but he was still within range. Normally she wouldn’t be able to sense him but because she had planted a butterfly on him when Alucard bit him, it was like had a honing signal to follow. It lead them to a cave behind a waterfall, how cliché. Somewhere in there was the boss of the bandits. She had no idea how many could be in that Cave, or how far it went but she had to go in now. Crouching low she entered the cave with Alucard right on her heels. Slowly they ventured into the depths of the cave. Around a corner she could see a flickering light from a flame. She moved to a rock to hide behind as the holder passed by. She jumped on him. Butting him in a sleeper-hold with practiced perfection. Alucard even caught the torch before it fell to the ground. She took it from him and set it on the rock so it would continue to burn. The continued onward into the darkness. 

Sinai peeked around the next corner and found several souls gathered together. At first glance she counted four, but then another joined them from an area beyond. 
“boss is Pissed,” the new comer explained to the other four. “and Clint is saying some little girl and her dog jumped them. We knew he wasn’t going to last long.”
As the others talked quietly amongst themselves Sinai had to come up with a plan. She had been quiet up until now but there was no way she could get past all five of them quietly. Even if she managed to sneak past them, they would be blocking her exit on her way out. So she had to deal with them now. After coming up with a plan she reached into her shikhakusho and touched her butterflies. She kept them in there so the wouldn’t be seen. She could only shift to at a time, but one was on the otherside of this crowd already. 
The butterfly shifted into a small ball in her hand, as did the one attached to the coward that ran away. Sinai chucked the one she was holding around the corner and two small explosions went off. The weren’t enough to kill anyone, but it could create mass panic.
