These woods are nice for a casual walk or even if you have a more adventurous urge. Bubbling hot springs lie just around the bend, fruits can be found to suit every taste bud, and rumor has it there are talking Tali who can speak Lambastian! (+2 Precision)

(Izor & Azshure)
(Characters in this story are very ooc)


“Why do men like women who work on cars?” Azshure asked critically.

Izor barely looked at him. “Dude,” he said exasperated. “Its my two favorite things: a hot lady, and a sweet car,” he explained.

Azshure narrowed his eyes. “She’d probably some supernatural creature who feeds on lecherous men like you,” he hissed.

Izor chuckled and looked at his partner. “You’re an idiot,” he claimed. “Besides, I’ve got my own baby waiting for me at home. This woman is only here for aesthetics,” he said.

Azshure rolled his eyes, and decided to leave that can of worms for later. “What exactly do we need a mechanic for?” he asked.

“We need someone who knows the town. Who better than a mechanic?” he asked as if the reason was very obvious.

(Andrea)


Andrea could feel the eyes on her. Someone was appraising her, it seemed people were always doing that. She perked her butt up a bit and smirked. Sooner or later they would come down and ask something of her, they always did. It was annoying, and it made her question her career choices more often that she liked. Today must have been her lucky day, they were already on their way to interrupting her work. she let herself sigh internally before turning around. “Can I help you boys?” she asked noticing that only one was looking her over.

“Yes ma’am, if you have the time,” Azshure said with a smile.

“I’ve always got time,” she said wryly. Then she straightened up, glared at the other man, and wiper her hands off on a damp towel. “What can I do for ya?” she asked.

“We were wondering if you knew anyone, or if you yourself know about certain rare creatures?” Azshure asked. Knowing full well he sounded like a madman, but he wasn't sure exactly how else to say it.

“You’re no poachers are you?” Andrea hissed. “I’ll kick your asses myself, and then leave you to the authorities,” she warned aiming a wrench at their heads.

“No, no nothing like that,” Izor said quickly.

“We’re here for documentation only,” Azshure promised, his hands raised in surrender. That wasn’t fully true, but they definitely weren't going to harm anything. “We even have proof if you need it,” he added calmly.

Andrea narrowed her eyes, obviously still suspicious of the two men. “I’ll believe you,” she said at last, talking only to Azshure.

“Let’s get this show on the road then,” Izor said. “Where to first miss… er,” he paused not knowing her name.

“The names Andrea,” she said. “And you?” she asked the boys.

“I’m Azshure, and my partner here is Izor,” he introduced them and shook the woman's hand.

Andrea nodded and did her best to pair the names with their faces. They were a little odd looking, so she was sure she would remember at least a colorful nickname. Azshure wore ice colored robes, and Izor looked like he might be part of a biker gang.

“Well, I’ve never looked for rare creatures before, but I imagine it's probably as simple as just going into the wilderness and looking around. Our town is a pretty small place, and we don't have a very big hunter group or anything like that. Some people hike, myself included, but I stick to trails and so do others,” she told them, knowing full well she wasn’t being very helpful. “If you want you can ask around other places, but I’m afraid you’ll get much of the same answer,” she added.

Azshure shook his head sadly. “I was afraid that might be the answer,” he said. “Well, thank you for your help anyway,” he added.

“Sure sure, good luck,” Andrea said. She had to get back to work so she left the two boys standing there.

“Well, that wasn't exactly how I expected things to go,” Izor said, watching the lady go.

“How did you expect it to go?” Azshure asked. Once the words left his mouth he knew he didn’t care to know his answer.

“I expected her to lead us to this village elder, and then go with us on a great quest,” Izor said. He was genuinely flustered about the whole situation.

Azhure burst out laughing. “You’re,” he stopped to continue laughing. “We’re not in an action movie,” he said, trying to catch his breath.

“Rude!” Izor exclaimed, offended. He couldn't help but admit his fantasy was childish, but he didn't like being laughed at. “What would you have done?” he asked critically.

“Well, I was planning on getting to the hotel, sleeping off our travel, and exploring some of the hiking trails in the morning. We need to get familiar with the landscape and I think using already clear paths will be a good way to prevent us getting lost,” Azshure explained. “I would not have weirded out some girl who is just trying to do her job,” he pointed out.

“Oh good for you. Of course you’d come up with a plan like that,” Izor said indignantly. “Lead the way then,” he said.

Azshure ignored his partner and began walking towards where their hotel was. They would have to walk there because their taxi had left them when Izor had decided to make the detour. At least he had the foresight to make sure they had arrived in the early morning. He knew his partner well enough to give them extra hours in a day. It wasn't the first time they had been sidetracked. Azshure wasn't really sure how Izor was able to do it. After their five connecting flights Azshure was exhausted. He could barely think straight. Luckily he was awake enough to keep them both from being beaten by some towns person.

“Why do you let me take us on mini adventures?” Izor asked. They had been walking for a while now, apparently their hotel was on the literal other side of town.

“Because it's the only way to shut your big mouth,” Azhure told him. “We’re almost there anyway, so I don't want to hear any complaining,” he added.

“Whatever,” Izor grumbled. “How long are we staying in this hotel for?” he asked.

“Only for tonight. We have a cabin in the forest that we’ll be driving to tomorrow. I’ve gotten us a rental car for the duration of our stay,” Azshure said.

“what about food and clothes, and everything else we need?’ Izor asked, doing his best to complain in a manner that didn’t sound like he was complaining. He was pretty sure he wasn't doing a very good job at it.

“Our employer told me that the house is fully stocked with everything we will need to capture this creature. Although I think the only way we will get them to pay for it is if we actually produce results,” Azshure said. “didn’t you listen to anything I told you before we got here?” he scolded. Azshure knew that Izor hadn't listened to a word. He had been preoccupied by one piece of technology or another, and now Azshure had to repeat everything he had said before.

Izor didn't even answer his partner's question. They both knew the answer. Sometimes he wondered why Azshure decided to stick around. He could easily get another partner. It was probably because Azshure was secretly very anxious around other people. They had been partners for a pretty long time now so they felt comfortable together. Izor was definitely grateful that Azshure had partnered with him, because if he had to find a new partner he knew he would have to change who he was.

Izor let himself come back to reality as he followed Azshure down what he assumed was main street. The town wasn't big, not as big others they have had to traverse, but the walk was still too long. they had both dressed comfortably for the plane rides, but Izor wasn't wearing walking shoes and he knew his feet would be in bad shape by the afternoon.

“We’re here,” Izor breathed when they entered the lobby of the hotel. “All of this for only one night,” he felt a bit like crying.

Azshure rolled his eyes. “At least we’re here now,” he said. “You… go sign us in and get into the hotel room,” he said after a pause. “I’ll go out and get some dinner,” he said. “And maybe some alcohol,” he added.

Azshure didn’t really want to go out again, but his stomach was growling and he wasn't in the mood for Izor’s whining. the hotel itself had a restaurant, and a bar. Azshure was hesitant to get food from it as he was sure it was over priced. Besides just across the street was some sort of fast food. A few cheap burgers and a bottle of something from the bar would surely be enough to hold them over until they got to the cabin. His only wish was that stores allowed people to go barefoot. His feet would ache much less if he didn’t have sandal straps rubbing his skin raw.
