The stranger watched the window, [i]Why did he have to come here? What was he thinking, that he could hide among the tavern patrons?[/i]
For just a brief moment he glanced away from the window,
his dark eyes scanned the room to see if anyone was watching him.
Those people were staring at him,[i]Do they know me? Did they see what i Did?
Why are they looking at me?[/i]
[i]No...no of course they didn't,  if they had, their weapons would be drawn, it's just coincidence. [/i]
A light shown thru the window,
[i]Torchlight? Was that them? Are they coming for me?[/i]
The stranger glanced around the room looking for an exit, but then came to his senses, before doing anything rash.
[i]Get a hold of yourself Nigel, calm down...relax.[/i]
[i]How can I relax they're out there looking for me.[/i]
The stranger's hand came up and he slapped himself hard in the face.
[i]Calm down, or I'm coming out.[/i]
Nigel gulped, "I'm calm...I'm calm."
