Ratte watched Roxy climb up to the rooftops and stepped back a little from the group, her eyes darting about, looking through the crowd quickly and assessing the people she saw there. She quickly formed a route in her mind's eye and glanced across at the others. "Guess this is it then.. I'll see you next with shit-tonnes of gems," she smirked and winked at them, before pulling up her hood and making her way into the crowd. She wanted to make herself blend in with them so much so that she wouldn't be noticed. She slowed her pace and kept to the side of the street, keeping one eye on Roxy up on the rooftop.

So far she had only seen Roxy hide herself calmly, then watch the distance. Ratte squinted to look in the same direction and noted the tiny dust cloud travelling along the road. She had time to get into position. She traced an irregular path around the street before slipping into a dark alleyway and kept close to the shadows. She followed it round to their target and assessed the building quickly. From where she was, the only way in she knew of was a small window or a small back door. She was small and lacking in both chest and hip volume, but she doubted that she would fit through the window. [i]'Back door it is then,'[/i] she thought, shrugging and pulling out her lock-picking set.

Along the road, the soldiers were gearing themselves up for an ambush. The cargo they protected was incredibly valuable and for whatever reason, their employer had asked them to bring his treasure to his museum in Luthias. The city was a nice enough place where the nobles were concerned, but it was notorious for the gangs and groups of thieves that thrived amongst its dark walls and long alleyways.

Each of the soldiers had been briefed and armed upon their horses. They had been carefully selected to guard the cargo with their lives by their noble employer himself. It was only a matter of time before they proved their worth.
