The Open Road [open]

Ivandis entered and asked Katana what she wanted him to take.

Katana lead the short ways to her hotel room. She gave a curt nod to the manager before headed up the stairs. They stopped on the third floor. Katana opened the door and headed inside, leaving the door open for Invandis.

"Ok, i'll help you get it lead the way."

Katana looked at him.
"Okay, I need to get my stuff from my hotel room though."

Ivandis stopped in front of her and reminded her of the offer he had given her earlier. "Well you can still stay at my place if you want. We can worry about what happened in the woods later.

Katana spotted Ivandis as she rounded the corner. He was moving towards her.

Ivandis saw Katana turn around the corner. He started heading for her as he remembered his offer that morning.

It took Katana a while to find her way back to the village. The sun had set a while back but at least she was there. She started to try and find Ivandis.

Ivandis made it to the villedge a little after dark and was looking for Katana.

Once they were long gone, Katana jumped out of the tree. She headed towards the village hoping she wouldn't get herself lost again.

Once she was in the tree he cut back and started leading the cretures away. After about 20 minuetes of hard running he picked up his pace and left them in the dust. He changed direction and swam in a river for about one mile, he hopped out and started heading for the villedge.

Katana glanced really quickly at Ivandis and nodded.
"See ya in the village."
Katana grabbed a tree branch and pulled herself into the tree and out of sight.

"Well if I'm right then they are just far enough that you could climb into a tree and I'll have them follow me. After they pass you up head to the villedge and I'll meet you there." He threw her a quick glance over to her and was hoping that she would choose to go along with his idea.

Katana picked up her pace. She wasn't even running that fast, at least for her.
"Yeah, of course. Why?"

Ivandis thought of an idea and picked up the pace. "Katana do you know how to climb?"

Katana was right on Ivandis's heels the whole way. She didn't even need to look back to know they were being followed.

Ivandis nodded and started running for the woods. trusting that Katana was right behind him. He did't pause or break for he felt that the creatures were right behind them.

Katana noticed the creatures seemed to be multiplying.
"I think you're right. It is time to go."
Katana moved towards him.

Ivandis decided that Katana had this and turned towards the aparent leader. Thats when he noticed that the thicket beyond the grove was coming to life with these creatures. "Hey Katana I think its time to go." He turned and walked to his ankle weights and restored them on his feet. He turned to look at Katana and looked for her reply.

Katana looked at the last three. One decided to charge her. She caught in by the horns. The other two stared at her and watched as she crushed the creatures skull between her bare hands. The fear was obvious. She smirked.

Ivandis ran forward and came full force with a punch to the creatures face. he felt teh head snap back and could feel his hand crushing teh bones underneath his knuckles. The beast was sent flying back and the other tree were timid to face a person that moved so quickly. Ivandis smiled in the knowledge of that fact.

Katana looked at the creatures. They weren't hard to kill. She'd already taken three down. Come and get me.

Ivandis surveyed the grove and saw the leader surrounded by five of the creatures. other than that he saw only a few left approaching. *only about 4 left* he thought to himself.

Katana braced herself as two more creatures charged her. She stopped them by the horns and smashed their heads against the ground with great force.

Ivandis saw an oppertunity, with almost inhuman speed he lunged forward toward the nearest enemy, but it was a feint and he quickly turned on his left foot to bring him inside the gaurd of the beast. he delivered 3 quick punches and jumped up it was as if he wasn't even there. the speed was incredible and he came down hard on the creatures head with the heel of his foot.whilde landing he delivered a blinding fast kick to the beasts chest and sent him flying back to the ground.
