Checking Out the Competition

[Danielle Otis]

Dani raised an eyebrow as she looked down the staircase. "Went through a lot of trouble?" she murmured, moving a bit closer to Dosise as to not be so close to the edge. "Where's it lead to?"

[Deleted]

((im so confused...looking up?))

"Down into the forever caves..." he began to descend them, "And to the knight's tower dungeon."

[Danielle Otis]

(( Whoopsiedoodles, I edited it sorry, read yer post wrong LOL ))

Dani followed Dosise carefully, and nodded. "You did this, then? Aren't you afraid someone will find it, or the dungeon?"

[Deleted]

"I am not worried, I don't see how anyone can find it. The entrance to the dungeon can only be opened though this side. As you said, I went through a lot of trouble." he chuckled as he reached the bottom. As soon as his foot hit the ground the magic lit the torches and the small storage like room was lit up, a corridor leading further into the caves. He had spent his family's entire fortune on this, and it could have never been spent better.

[Danielle Otis]

Dani whistled, "This is pretty cool...I'd get too lazy before being able to accomplish this, so kudos to you!"

She stepped beside Dosise, and looked around the cave. "What do you use it for?" she asked.

[Deleted]

"Everything business related, also sort of a place to get away and just think. These tunnels lead to the guild, and some of the more dangerous and most important market items are stored here."

He chuckled, "You wouldn't be too lazy if you ran a guild."

[Danielle Otis]

"Which is why I'll never run one!" she cheekily grinned as she looked around quietly. "I'd be too lazy running it. I don't think I would have enough time to run a guild in the first place."

[Deleted]

Xavier shook his head, "I guess it isn't for everyone, otherwise there would be thousands of guilds and no members for them."

[Danielle Otis]

"You must admit though, if everyone could have one they would. No one wants a boss, they want to be above everyone else. Me? I think I'm used to it. I have three bosses," she chuckled to herself as she twirled around, taking everything in before turning to face Dosise with a grin.

"If you could be anything in the world, what would you be?" she suddenly asked.

[Deleted]

That was a tough question to answer for him. If he would have had it his way he would be fighting crime rather than being involved with it. He would travel the lands fighting for the ones who couldn't. "I suppose I would have a family, and be fighting against the corrupt in the light, not behind a mask."

[Danielle Otis]

Dani raised an eyebrow in surprise. It was the opposite of what he was doing now, wasn't it? He didn't look like family was on his mind, and he was a criminal.

"If you ask me that can still be accomplished. You can be anything if you set your mind to it!" Oh god now I'm sounding like Stacy, Dani thought, but a smile appeared on her lips. "Do you think having been a criminal makes that path difficult?"

[Deleted]

"It makes it impossible, I have tried to get away and still since my birth I have been sucked in by the darkness it holds. Life has dealt me these cards, all I can do is play them how I want. I can't change them."

[Danielle Otis]

"How many times have you tried? Have you tried to accomplish it not alone? I mean, you're a knight, right? I think you're going on the right track," the young woman shrugged, leaning up against one of the walls.

[Deleted]

"I have tried with my brother, and with Stacy. A knight yes, yes I am but to be honest that was my most foolish endeavor to try and get out, when people find out who I am... Things well take a horrible spill for the worse."
Was it possible? It certainly did not seem so. No, it wasn't. This was his life and he could only do right in this way.

[Danielle Otis]

"...did I just hear the sounds of giving up? I don't like people who give up. I like you, but you're giving up. So I have to put a stop to it!" Dani walked over to Dosise.

"You," she poked him in the chest rather forcefully. "Are going to be who you want to be, whether you like it or not! And I'll help you wherever I can! But you," she poked him again, the same amount of force. "Have to promise me you wont give up."

"Promise?" she asked. Though the way she said it was more like a demand. Although small, and not very intimidating, Dani seemed determined. The girl held out a hand to shake on it.

[Deleted]

Xavier chuckled, you had to admire her determination. "You realize a word of a criminal is worth as much as that dirt you will find on your shoes." he shook her hand nontheless. "I'll keep trying, of course. I am afraid it is my tragic flaw."

[Danielle Otis]

"I don't think you would lie to me unless you had to," Dani grinned, folding her arms in victory. "And besides. I keep my shoes as clean as I can. First step for you, making a name for yourself as a knight! You gotta go out and catch criminals you don't own in the act! Help out people around town, and just make yourself known."

[Deleted]

"I thing that I will do as soon as I am finished setting the guild up, rather not catch all the ones I want before I have a chance to invite them to join the guild." he looked around and decided he had had enough of showing her around the inner parts of the guild. "Are you ready to go up?" he asked.

[Danielle Otis]

"Yeah I'm ready. And that makes sense, I do believe," Danielle grinned, making her way up the steps.

[Deleted]

Xavier followed her up. As soon as they reached the top they closed back up. "And what about you? What would you do?" he asked he same question back to her.
