He was happy for the girl to be excited about him buying food for her. The old man chuckled softly with the kind smile on his face in enjoyment. You could really read off of her face that she was hungry in the first place and would take anything for food at the moment. She tried to undo her previous line by covering it with a slight cough as if she had never meant to say that. What hunger wouldn't do to a person. The man patiently watched the girl letting herself regain her posture again and suddenly looked bedazzled at the young lady. Did she just completely read him? He couldn't think of any other younger girl taking him like that. It was pretty rude to say at least. The man laughed at her comment. He had to cover it up at least. No one would suspect him if he didn't mess up now. [center][color=8dc73f]"Ha, ha, ha, I didn't think anyone in those seventy two years would make me out for someone like that!"[/color][/center] The man continued the laugh definitly pulling some attention towards the two but once they saw it was the old man continued to walk on. [center][color=8dc73f]"No young lady, I just seek enjoyment in conversing with others. Young people look onto the world a lot more vividly than olders do. They see every adventure they take as something amazing and have rich stories about the smallest things."[/color][/center] The old man turned silent for a while watching how the fox would react to his words. He didn't think she was likely to refuse and after all, it wasn't like he was gonna do anything bad to her. [center][color=8dc73f]"Dare to go with the 'scary' old man already. My stomach is rumbling."[/color][/center] [center][h2][color=fff79a]Tani[/color][/h2] [img]http://i.imgur.com/WgalQk9.png[/img] [@Heckno12][@KoL][@6slyboy6][@ADamnFiddle][@Rune_Alchemist][/center] Just another hot day for the kingdom knights. Luckily the sun was already setting a little making the temperature a little more comfortable. Tani poured water over her face as the other kingdom knights around her cooled down from the suits on a nice shadowy break spot. Tani was already ready to go again even though there was still some sweat spread across her face but she had to wait. They deserved a break after today after all. Tani always looked somewhat serious, emotionless and uncaring of others but deep inside she could muster a smile for her hard working comrades and the others knew it. With water still dripping from under her armor she patiently waited with her arms crossed looking up at the sky from the corner of her eye. The others slowly started gearing up again and were ready to go on again mostly. Tani took another cup of water and glanced over the others if they were ready. With confidence they all showed their captain that they were ready. Tani gave a quick nod mustering a brave smile as they headed back into the sun again for patrolling. It was pretty peaceful today apart from some stealing and the likes. No criminals detected from the posters so today wasn't all that bad. In silence they all walked. People in the streets looking at them as they walked by. They looked proud of the knights but there were definitly some glares of disgust. The authorities weren't loved by all after all but there was nothing to do about that. Only when they walked close by the Iron bell HQ it really started going down. Black smoke was coming from the windows and roof indicating that someone used magic. It could be training but Tani didn't believe so. Their pace quickened as they approached. Someone grazed past Tani her shoulder almost knocking her over. She shortly stopped to look back at the person but she could only make out of it that he had ears and usual clothing. Tani decided not to dwell on it and headed towards the Iron bell HQ again. Once inside the smoke had completely faded into the atmosphere. Tani gazed around and was to notice that multiple people had extreme nausea and were disorientated. The look on her face sharpened. She didn't look all to pleased. Tani ordered the knights of her to assist the iron bell knights and walked further into the building herself wondering if she was here. Tani got track of her objective and walked towards her. She was easy to notice so that was a positive to the situation. Tani looked up at the girl with a somewhat serious deadpan face as good as she could muster. [center][color=fff79a]"We meet once more Maria. Doesn't look like it is going all to well here. Was there an attack on the Iron Bell just now? Me and my knights have shot to aid as quickly as possible. Can you please inform me on the situation."[/color][/center] Tani glanced around at the quite unique faces. They didn't look from here but she had nothing to do with that. They looked a little bit shocked by what just had happened though just like the Iron Bell knights near the event.
