A Quiet Day

[Danielle Otis]

Dani went red but grinned at the man, "Thank you!"

She listened carefully around them. Her hearing was crystal clear. It would be impossible for anyone to hear them right now- all the way to and through the graveyard she heard nothing stir. "So do you have any more plans for the group?" she asked.

[Deleted]

"You can check your pockets if you would like. We have chosen a name. And the location has been found, cleaned and partially stocked. New members are being found and jobs are being looked into. There is not much other than that. A good start though I think." he answered her question as he looked off into the horizon.

[Danielle Otis]

Dani checked her pockets. She took note of the card and grinned, reading it through. "Thank you so much my friend! I appreciate it! I am capable of doing two jobs though, keep in mind. I think I was an assassin before I was a thief actually."

[Deleted]

Xavier half smiled, "The one tends to accompany the other doesn't it." he nodded slightly, "Don't worry it will be taken into account your skills and how good you are at them. When you come by the Guild you will take an assessment to see where your abilities 'rank' you."

[Danielle Otis]

Dani nodded, grinning. She then blushed sheepishly, "I do have to work on combat in general though...I'm not so good at that!"

[Deleted]

He shrugged, "That will come in time. It really isn't that huge of a need unless you are trying to steal from more dangerous targets really."

[Danielle Otis]

She nodded, twiddling her fingers, "If I can't use my senses very well though, like if I'm sick, it's a bad idea to send me on a job. I got caught doing that, I was sort of desperate for money."

"So have you given that crux a membership as well? If you have, I have to make sure to be nice to him from now on," Dani smirked.

[Deleted]

"Hmmm, so maybe I should have everyone fill out medical cards to huh?" he said thinking about how there would be things like Dani being sick or someone being allergic affecting performance. "As for Dax, he will also get in. Mostly because it is too risky not to have him on, but also because he can be of good use."

[Danielle Otis]

Dani chuckled. "I don't like him. I may be a girl, and I may be young, but I bet I could sneak up on him easier than he thinks!" the girl looked out at the falling sun, a warm glow to her face. She was really enjoying herself.

[Deleted]

He didn't doubt the girl could do it soon, with training. But he was a bit skeptical giving Dax probably had much more experience. He just smiled and nodded, "Soon you will be able to sneak up on even me and I won't realize it..." that may have been an exaggeration, well... Who knew.

The sun was setting and even though he was standing the memories began to flood his mind, there was no blocking them. They stung his heart and his eyes once again were watery.

[Danielle Otis]

Dani frowned once she looked at her friend, "Xavier, are you alright...?"

[Deleted]

The sun was setting and Xavier was completely zoned out as he remembered every moment with Stacy. Is started with just the nights at the bell tower, but it soon spread through their entire lives together. Even their plans to maybe raise a family and see the day when she was healed of her sickness. Adventures, laughs, tears, smiles. Try all flooded his mind. He was transfixed until the ringing of the bells jarred him out of it.

[Danielle Otis]

"...Xavier?" Dani muttered, swinging her legs around the ledge to face him and placed a hand on his shoulder lightly.

[Deleted]

He shook the rest of it off and wiped the few tears that had fallen, "Oh, my apologies I was sort of... Lost," for a moment. What were you saying?"

[Danielle Otis]

"I asked if you were okay," Dani looked worried at Xavier, placing her hands in her lap.

[Deleted]

He smiled as best as he could, "Yes, I am fine. Thank you for your concern though."

[Danielle Otis]

Sure doesn't look like fine to me... "Alright! As long as you're okay," Dani smiled. "And no problem! So, where is the guild exactly? And when must I be there, or is it a come and go sort of thing?"

[Deleted]

Xavier was still a but shaken from being on the tower, he just wasn't over her yet might not ever be. "The amount of participation is completely up to you. Missions can be delivered but also picked up, pay is based on jobs to just by 'rank' or membership. As for location, I will show you, may be best to go now actually I am not sure when I will have another opportunity." He took the chance to leave the top of the tower.

[Danielle Otis]

Dani nodded, following Xavier. It involves the sun. And the tower. Has to be something about Stacy.

Dani decided not to ask. She'd find out eventually. She put herself into the mind of really wanting to see the base.

[Deleted]

Hey walked to the edge of the grave yard, after descending the stairs of the tower, and soon found a large marvle grave house that had it's had its stone doors broken off. It wasn't a grave at all but rather one of the many entrances to the forever caves. "Have you heard if the forever caves?" he asked, an echo was returned as the entered the darkness.
