Vex followed without question, listening to him quietly. She tilted her head slightly before she nodded.
"Right, perfect. If we can find a map of the on our way I can try to circle where I know the Lich is." She said, trying to rack her brain to see if she remembered anything from it.
She didn't remember too much about that Lich, she had only mention whispers from other hunters about him, and it was a stupid Idea for her to get anywhere near her sister at any point.

After around an hour of walking, they arrived at the station. They walked around, looking for the ticket booth, but spotted something else instead. A pair of Hunters, the ones that waited for Mako outside the hotel seemed to be standing beside the booth. He grabbed Vex's arm and suddenly led her to a wall to hide her. "We've got company."

Vex was quietly humming to herself as they walked, before she gave a small squeak at being pulled along.
"Hunters?" She asked as if she already knew, she glanced over to try and get a look at them before she gave a small frown. "Ah, those two. They're my sisters 'pets'."

He lapsed into thought for a moment before saying "I have an idea." Mako then reached for his belt and held up a pair of handcuffs, the same handcuffs he had used to restrain Vex earlier.

Vex looked at Mako's handcuffs and furrowed her brow. "I don't like it. But okay." She said, lifting her arms up slightly.
Her eyes drifted over to the two Hunters again, both of them still hadn't noticed them; one had a long coat that seemed to be freshly cindered from some sort of fire- The other had what looked to be like blood on his boots. Both of them seemed to be chattering to each other about something, not taking any precaution when it came to the surrounding people.

Mako gave a small nod of thanks as he proceeded to put the cuffs on Vex. He looked back at the pair of Hunters, before dragging the girl out from behind the wall and headed over to the ticket booth. The Hunters would no doubt notice them as they headed to the booth, but Mako could act well enough if they started asking questions.

Vex followed quietly, she thought to herself as she could have easily picked up a fake fight with him but she moved with Mako quietly.
The taller hunter looked over towards Mako and Vex with a small narrow of his eyes. He nudged his companion and motioned over to them. The shorter Hunter looked over and narrowed his eyes slightly. He pulled out his phone to start a text message before the Taller hunter grabbed their phone and pocketed it before making a way towards the Hunter and The Vampire.
"My my." He started, not looking back to see if his friend followed, "A bit odd seeing you here. What are you doing with a Vampire?"

Mako anticipated that at least one of the hunters would ask him rather than assuming the obvious. He turned to face the taller Hunter, his visor masking any hint of emotion. "I'm doing my job." he said nonchalantly. "It just so happens that I need her alive to complete it... for now." The mercenary emphasized that last part. He trusted Vex to follow through the charade, and hoped that it would be enough to convince the Hunters and get them off his back.

Vex tugged against Mako's grip and let out a string of long forgotten insults to him. She stared knives at the Hunters as she tugged more, trying to punch at Mako's armour with a wince, splitting her knuckles on the final punch on his hand.
The Hunter gave a small grin, glancing back to his comrade before he moved his hand slightly.
"Alright. Just making sure you're not trying to escape the Masters orders." He said, before Vex instinctively spat towards him.
"Fuck my sisters Orders!-" She started before the Hunter acted against instinctively and slammed her against the wall with his hand on her throat, his eyes becoming a deep red colouration.
"Don't talk about the Master like that."

Vex's acting was surprisingly good, Mako honestly didn't expect her to play along that well. He sighed in relief as the Hunter seemed to have believed him. The entire ruse fell apart however, when Vex took it a little too far and incurred the wrath of the Hunter. Mako's instincts kicked in, attempting to grab and pull the Hunter away from Vex before ejecting a pair of steel blades from his forearm gauntlet and holding it up to the Hunter's throat. "I need her alive to complete my mission."

The Hunter looked down at the blade, his eyes returning to their soft green before he let her go, stepping back slightly. His body was trembling before he gave a shaky nod. "S-Sorry." He shakily spoke, stepping back again with a look of mild confusion over his face.
Vex moved to rub her neck slightly before she looked at Mako and mouthed a Sorry. She moved to click her neck with a small mumble.

Mako glared at the Hunter through his visor, a silent warning telling him not to interfere again. After purchasing tickets, he led Vex to the train, looking around to see if any others might be watching them. Once the coast was clear, he removed the cuffs and asked her: "Are you alright?"

Vex followed quickly, the Hunters didn't seem to follow. When they got to the secluded area of the train and he asked if she was okay, she hesitated.
"I'm..." She started, "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to, my emotions... Got in the way." She said with a sigh, "I'm fine. Spooked, but fine. I didn't expect my Sisters magic to be that strong on a human."

"I see." Mako would keep that in mind. Though he felt nothing when he first met with Bella, but he couldn't be completely sure that she didn't use the full extent of her magic to charm him. "Keep your emotions in check next time. I will not always be capable of saving you." He wanted to keep a low profile, and having Vex lash out at every nearby Hunter under her sister's control wasn't the best way to sneak around.

Vex gave a single nod, "I'm sorry. I'll keep things in check from here on out." She said before she looked out the windows of the train, watching the Hunters quietly.

The hunter that wasn't the one to pin Vex stepped towards his friend, gripping their arm with a tilt of his head.
Vex couldn't make out whatever they were saying to each other. The taller one seemed startled, as if they didn't know what happened.

"Good." Mako plooked out the window as well, and eyed the pair of Hunters. He did notice that the Hunter that threatened Vex was behaving oddly, almost as if he was locked into a trance when her sister was mentioned. His eyes also changed color as he snapped out of the trance. Before long, the train started moving, and the outline of the pair began to shrink until vanishing a few seconds later.

Vex moved to settle on the train and leaned against the chair and breathed in a little.
"So we take the train to our stop, grab a regional map and then find the lich from there? Or have you got more plans?" She asked with a tilt of her head, she didn't know what the bountyhunter was planning.

He paused for a moment as he thought about his plan before replying, "After we get off our stop, we're going to have to walk to my place, then we can track down the lich from there. I should probably tell you that it's deep inside a forest, so take care not to get lost."

Vex gave a small nod, "Yeah. That sounds like a plan." She said as she thought about what he said. "What forest is it located in? I've probably heard of it... Before I settled where you found me, I sorta drifted around after my sister," She hesitated before she continued, "Sometimes by my own accord, sometimes... By hers." She shuddered at the memories.

Mako looked at her, and noticed how she had behaved regarding her sister. He thought that perhaps there was a traumatic event that she experienced. His first thought was betrayal, after all, he was no stranger to it himself. He didn't really know how to comfort her, he wasn't very good at talking to people unless it was about business or threatening them. "It's in Emwhich Forest."
