Goblins are technically considered 'monstrous' and are generally placed in appropriate quarter of the city reserved such creatures although they are tolerated in some other places less lenient on the definition of 'monstrous'. Either way, we should be going. I see a group of thugs coming down the lane. Thanks for your help, my fair maiden-saviour! You look in the direction he points and see that three humoniod shapes can be made out walking casually, two of them holding what could be clubs of some sort. It is on the road back to your hideout. You quickly consider doubling back to the alley you passed, but now both avenues represent equal amount of danger. The goblin starts to skip off with a slight merry bounce probably due to his good luck. |

Dice Intimidate:
"Trying to weasel yourself out?" Kaori asked, making it a point to stand right in the Goblin's path. "Very well, if you refuse to fork over your money, you already know too much and have to die." she stated coldly, casually making the concealed blade in her sleeve visible to the little Goblin. "Or... you help me get my money elsewhere. All you have to do is be my extra pair of eyes and arms, and then I'll leave you alone. Maybe even let you keep a few expensive items if you're a really good pair of eyes. Make up your mind. Fast." She lets her blade hang a little lower at the last word. |

The goblin doesnt seem overly concern about your blade, himself shifting his weight towards a defensive one.
__________________Well now m'lady, I always said I liked bad girls. I'll do you one better. I know of a certain... distributor in this area who just recently pocured a large amount of... spell components i believe they are called. The explosive kind like live firefly, brimstone powder, suplhur in huge quantities for some special order or something. That, and some fire-ish items too. He stored it in a nearby shoplot, away from his usual safehouses cos of the potential for it to... combine. I heard few people wanted to even guard it due to the dangers. We have a potentially good mark, probably less guards and at minimum, we can make a LARGE distraction for a getaway! You note his eyes has the same maniacal excitement as before. You can do the entering, ill do the watching, and we'll split it 50-50. 50 for me cos *I* hold the infomation you never had. And don't be thinking I'm a push over cos of em guards. I LET em push me around but I can take alf a dozen guards alone, I can. He looks at you, chin raised defiantly. I can get ya some more comfy clothings if we are good. I doubt you can do much in them dresses. That, and we gotta do something about those thugs coming closer. Think quick. |

"If we're quick enough we could do both..." Kaori added, eyebrow raised in slight interest.
"Fine. Lead the way. But you better actually pull your own weight. There's only so much danger I'm willing to face for anyone else." |

AYYY, you two!
__________________You see two slim characters and a beefed up human walking up towards you. This is PinkBeard's turf. What ya doing standing around acting shifty and stuff, ay? One of the slimmer humans glances to the goblin, his face showing recognition. Hey, I know you... you are that bookie at the weirdo tracks. And bookies haf lots and lots o monie! says the large human, grinning at the prospect before him. |

"I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about. We only got ourselves lost. We'll leave you gentlemen be." Kaori returned to her 'Ms. Renolds' voice as she politely excused herself to the kind rejects of society before her.
But she didn't move just yet. At least until she could confirm they weren't going to try to jump her. And if they did? That's why she was mentally preparing herself to strike whichever ruffian tried to attack her, preferably by striking one of the many soft and squishy regions that would paralyze him long enough to permit a getaway. She wasn't exactly fully equipped right now. |

Genteel-men? Here? At this hour? No m'lady, there ain't no man here who would help you, goblin included. With a harsh tone, he snaps to your companion, Drop your money, leave the girl and get outta here.
__________________You feel more than see your one and only 'ally' start to seriously consider that proposal. His money probably the only thing keeping him by your side. |

"Don't you dare." Kaori ordered the Goblin, before closing her eyes and activating her ki yet again to render her form invisible. Looks like she'd have to make the first move after all.
While still invisible to the others, the ninja wasted no time in running straight up one of the thugs and aiming a karate chop at his throat. The attack would make her visible again, but it wouldn't matter much once he was gargling on his own blood on the pavement. Dice Attack:
Dice Damage (Normal+Sudden):

Now honey, you must understand the situation im facing... he starts babbling not taking his eyes off the three thugs before he realizes you are not beside him anymore.
__________________Their eyes go wide as you dissappear infront of them, reappearing just as the lead thug stumbles backwards from the impact of your unseen attack on his throat.... |

Immediately the lean one on your left slices in the air towards you, his dagger glancing off your raised bracers while you sidestep a dangerously close blow from the larger foe on right left just as his overhead swing with his large chained club comes crashing it onto the floor where you stood. Just as you congratulate yourself for the near miss, you realize both of them are slowly inching around you, flanking you on the left and right, with the choking thug infront of you.
__________________----------------------------------------------------- The three start in one line infront of you. They sidestep to your left and right causing a flank. The goblin and Injured Thug has yet to react. Will he run away cowardly? Charge into the fight brandshing some Innovative Goblin Contraption™? Find out in our next instalment!

"Don't make my time on you a waste." Kaori nonchalantly said for the goblin's benefit without her gaze ever leaving her opponents', bringing her left leg all the way back before swinging it overhead, attempting to drop kick the injured thug!
But the lady ninja was already calculating her next move before the success of her hit even registered in her mind, doing a single step backwards while spinning to avoid being struck as she moved away from her attackers. |
