Orlin wiped a little sweat off his brow (yes, they sweat) before taking a seat on a bench. It was a warm day, and he'd been working hard for most of it. But, training today was done. Letting his guard down some, he stretched out, feeling his aching shoulders sigh in relief.

*Inga arrives from For Every End, A New Beginning*
"C'mon lady, you can't deposit your rupees anywhere else!"
Inga silently stared at the woman who practically begged her to deposit some rupees. She was doubting the legitimacy of this "bank", if she could even bring herself to call it that. These Terminians sure were stranger than the Hylians. They seemed more desperate in a way, though she didn't exactly blame them. She was fully aware of what the region had just been through, and even though she had heard the townspeople saying everything was going back to normal, something was definitely still off. She knew she wouldn't be staying long and would probably leave by the next day. The weirdness of the land was really no surprise to Inga, after hearing Lyxa's description of it years ago.
As she was about to move on from the "bank", Inga's eyes were caught by a particular little wooded man. She had seen a few mad scrubs in her years in Hyrule, but from her experience with them, she was expecting this one to start firing deku nuts into everyone around him. She was a little surprised when he didn't. A chuckle escaped from under the cloth covering her mouth as she looked at the little, harmless looking man. He looked small enough that she could kick him across the road. She wasn't planning on doing it, but the thought gave her a little laugh as she passed by. -
"Was that a laugh?" Orlin glanced up at her, a fire in his eyes, "You'd better not tell me that was a laugh," he hated being mocked, even if it was something small, like this. He thumbed his right-hand knife slowly, eyes on the traveler who was passing by.Comment

Inga was surprised that the sound of her laugh had gotten through the Deku's wooden head, but she didn't think much of his attempt at intimidating her. "How adorable!" she quietly commented as a lady might to a baby, but with a bit more condescension in her tone. Besides that, she didn't pay the Deku much mind and began to continue past him. She was assured that a little stump man was nothing to be worried about. Just another strange sight in a strange town.Comment

Orlin launched himself at her. His momentum tried to knock her down. Playtime was over.Last edited by HyrulianBlackcat; 03-28-2016, 11:48 PM.Comment

Thinking she had heard the clatter of wood on stone, Inga took a glance over her shoulder just in time to catch the deku coming after her. She let out a "Hey!" in surprise and quickly twirled to the side, barely avoiding the charging deku. Staying in motion, she made a long stride away to distance herself from the attacker. Though she was amused by the deku's rage, Inga figured that now wasn't the best time to make a scene and she inched away to avoid a brawl. Her getup gave away that she wasn't from the town, and if she put a little deku in the ground a guard would surely be on to her. She kept the verbal instigation coming, however. "Watch where you put those leaves, ya ****in' scrub!" she taunted as she continued to back away while watching the deku's every move.Last edited by Peeps; 06-16-2015, 08:02 PM.Comment

Growling to himself, Orlin seethed. He slowly gathered what little magic he had to start blowing a bubble, hiding it with his back. When he was ready, he spun around, shooting it off at her.Last edited by HyrulianBlackcat; 03-28-2016, 11:48 PM.Comment

Inga watched for a moment as the deku fired a bubble at her. She didn't know what to make of it and didn't think a bubble could possibly do much damage, but side stepped to avoid it in case it really could do anything. The deku was starting to get on her nerves now, and she was ready to scare him off with a taste of dark Sheikah illusion magic. She paused to focus on him and summoned a smoky purple dragon illusion, forcing it forwards to rush in on the deku. She was careful to make it weak enough that the only one able to see it would be her target, but it would surely still scare the crap out of him if he'd never seen dark magic before. As the dragon reached the deku she noticed a couple guards closing in on him as well, and before she could do anything about it, she was facedown on the stone buried beneath another soldier. Never having been caught off her guard like this before, it felt particularly degrading to have been knocked down. "For disruption of the peace, you're under arrest by the town guard! Right this way, giants ****ed freebooter..." With that, the guard threw a chain around Inga's wrists and yanked her up, tugging her away to what she expected to be this town's prison.Last edited by Peeps; 07-24-2015, 11:24 AM.Comment

Orlin was surprised when the soldiers picked him up off the ground. He'd seen the one approaching Inga, but had thought it was nothing. Even he knew it was stupid to try to fight back, so he just glared at the soldiers, "I'll remember you all. Sleep well these next few nights... or don't. But you stopped a fight for my pride... and that doesn't bode well to anyone," he spit on the ground at their feet, then glared at Inga as the guards carrying him followed her and her escort.Comment

Unfortunately for Inga, a guard tugged down her bandana so she couldn't see exactly where they were headed. This bothered her enough that she was tempted to whirl them to the ground, but she realized that becoming Clocktown's most wanted probably wouldn't be the best outcome. She still tried to map out the route without vision so she could know where they were in town. Towards the end of their walk they went down some stone steps, through a couple doors and down a hallway where one guard let go of her to let the other toss her into prison. For obvious reasons Inga was in a separate cell from the deku, but it sounded like they were right next to each other, only separated by a dense stone wall. She listened to her barred door slam shut and the guards didn't even do the courtesy to remove the blindfold. She didn't actually mind this much, thinking the sight of being in a jail cell would only irritate her more. She sat down crosslegged on the floor with wrists still chained behind her and a clear mind, quickly thinking up some possible escape methods and realizing that it wouldn't have been a bad idea to ask for her sight back. It sounded like they weren't in a busy prison and she didn't hear if there were any others locked up. It did however sound like there was still one soldier keeping watch over the hall. After a few minutes, she ducked her head and loosened her muscles to get some rest.Comment

"Way to go, moron!" Orlin snorted after a few minutes, "Look what you got us into."
((Yes, you waited a month for this))Comment

"Watch your words, little guy," Inga calmly retorted from her cell. She found the situation to be pretty interesting, but the deku's sour mood sure put a damper on her amusement. "Besides, I believe it was your awful temper that got us locked down here. So cut the whining and blow some more bubbles or something." Inga shifted a little where she was sitting, getting rather comfortable despite the cold stone jail floor. It had been a lively but long few days, and it felt nice to stay still for a moment. She quickly noticed the sound of rats skittering around the prison, but continued to rest easily.Comment

Orlin huffed, 'Which came from your words. And your words right now aren't exactly helping your case." He glanced around, looking for any nearby guards.Last edited by HyrulianBlackcat; 03-28-2016, 11:49 PM.Comment

While Inga half-listened to another of Orlin's comebacks, a loud wooden door could be heard latching shut. The sound of armored footsteps traveled down the hall in front of their cells. When Inga heard the guard passing in front of her cell, she spoke up. "Excuse me, mister soldier," she said, putting on her cutest tone of voice injected with some of her Sheikah illusion magic. She was leaning on her arms with her outstretched legs crossed in front of her and her shoulders pressed forwards to accentuate her ample breasts. "Help a girl out and take off this blindfold, please? This is no way to treat a poor little lady..." She bit her lip, hoping the deception would work. Sure enough, the man opened her barred door and crouched in front of her, sliding the blindfold above her eyes. Batting her lashes, she looked up to make direct contact and stared into the man's eyes for a moment. She used the illusion magic to cast a slightly glowy aura around her face, and the soldier gazed back at her as if entranced. One of his hands slid down to her cheek and she gave a little grin, trying to blush. At this point, her magic was taking a good amount of effort. She then shifted all her weight to her hands, suddenly lifting her legs and swirling them to the side to knock the soldier's feet out from under him. He fell to the ground, his helmeted head bashing the ground. Inga jumped up and shot one lightning-fast foot downwards into the man's head, impaling it against the hard floor. She snatched some keys from the unconscious body before stepping out of her cell to check on the Deku. "Hmm," she began in a teasing tone. "Should I help you out, or do you need more jail time?" She jingled the keys around her finger in a playful taunt.Comment

Orlin just stared at her, "Either you're an ***, or just stupid. Get me outta here, Gerudo," he jumped to his feet. He was a little impressed at her magic a moment ago, but he wasn't gonna let it show. Seriously.Comment
