It was a cool shade that was interrupted by beams of sunlight that filtered through the branches and allowing the underbrush some of the precious light. Amber stole a look back at the two guards, happy to see they hadn’t moved from the path. Seemingly oblivious still to the kuhna’s return. Though Amber could predict that they expected them to come back, considering what umber had said. Amber was almost angry, he had given up their intentions and now they would be hunted while they were looking for the treasure. A treasure that was sure to have priceless jewels and thousands of key stones.

“Would you stop daydreaming.” Umber hissed. Amber realized she had stopped walking. “sorry.” She whispered embarrassed. Umber rolled his eyes but moved ahead. “There are scent markings that we are following currently.” He said having a sharper nose he was able to smell such things. “It seems that we are inside of someone’s territory. Though the species of the people that live here is interesting. Many different species and genders have come by here, and they all smell different.” Umber had lived alone in the wild before; he knew how groups should smell. For the most part they all took on the same scent.

These people all smelt different, and unrelated. “Do you think it’s a company’s territory?” Amber asked, with the two unarmed guards that was the first thing that popped into her head. Umber nodded. ”That would make sense, and by the guards placed out front I don’t think anyone will be inside working.” This would be easier than Cream originally thought. -Maybe we will find something important then.-

“We should go inwards a little. We reached a corner so we know which is leading out of the territory now.” Umber said, marking an almost perfect 90 degree angle in the dirt. Showing where the corner was, it was too neat for a pack of wild animals to have made so it confirmed their suspicions about it being a company that occupied the area. “Lead the way.” Amber said, trusting Umber to lead them straight to the heart of the territory, and hopefully to the treasure. They walked for a few paces and then Umber stopped. “Someone knows we are here.” He whispered, shooting a look to their left.

“Looks like they found out where we are headed.” Amber hissed slightly annoyed. “They sound like a thousand gyrophant stampeding our way.” Umber snickered, moving forward once again, unfazed by the hunters. Amber just shook her head and forced them to pick up the pace a little, no reason to get caught because they were going to slow. Now they were back to sneaking around, but this time they took on a brisk pace. Still on lighter feet than their pursuers who had now started moving off of the scent trail they were leaving. Probably trying to catch the two by surprise.

-too bad they are so god damn loud.- Amber thought tracking the exact location of the two guards. It was sad because the woman had seemed to official like she actually knew what she was doing. Though she had been the one to give their position up, so she was pretty much only good at acting. Neither one of them seemed like they would be much of a danger to the Kuhna so the two just kept walking deeper into the territory.

“They are just ahead.” jessabele said trying her best not to run into anything, but her swaying tail was catching on trunks of trees and ripping up the underbrush. Dalton on the other hand was having a little more luck, his thin frame allowed him to stop through the jungle without much noise. Jessabele hoped that the Kuhna were unable to hear them, or where too stupid to leave the area. Although she had no idea what they would do if it came to some sort of confrontation.

-What morons.- Umber thought, knowing that Amber would be pinpointing their exact location so he could find out what was contained in this territory. He could sense they were almost there but he had no idea what they were getting into. It had a small feeling of magical power but other than that he was going in blind. Their pursuers where still making themselves clear, and they were all fast approaching the worksite.

Scrabbling to a halt, Umber found what they had been looking for. An endless hole that spiraled into the ground, a small outer staircase was carved roughly into the hole. “Whoa.” Cream said shock lit on her face as she stopped next to Umber, craning her neck to see into the hole. It was pitch black and very unwelcoming. Dirt and stone was piled up around the hole, and the ground was very flat. “What is going on here?” Umber asked, shock was spread across his face as well.

“Don’t move.” Jessabele growled coming up behind the Kuhna. “Finally you decided to join us.” Amber remarked, neither Kuhna looking at the guards. “You… Knew we were there?” Dalton huffed trying to catch his breath. “I doubt you could have been any louder.” Umber said a bored tone to his voice. The Kuhna moved around the hole, making sure they wouldn’t fall in. Umber could still feel a magical presence but he didn’t quite know where it was.

“Where the fuck do you think you’re going?” Dalton asked, moving towards the Kuhna. His eyes a steely glare. His employers would not be too happy with the intruders being just outside the dig site. ”Would you be careful.”  Jessabele’s sharp tone stopped Dalton in his tracks, and when he saw how close he was to the edge he sprung away from the hole, sending a few pieced of earth into the tunnel. “That’s a long drop.” She reminded walking forward to stand next to the shinzo.

Umber and Amber had safely made it to the opposite side of the hole and where now sifting through the dirt. Umber was searching for the muffled magic and he knew that Amber would be searching for some sort of hidden treasure. The first few holes where just dirt and leaf mold. Umber was interested to find that the guards where just standing around, enforcing his feeling that they were not at all trained in any way. The two just sat there not sure what to do, and looking concerned. Only for themselves of course, it was their skin on the line with these two Kuhna in the center of operations.

A few pieces of equipment hung around the outskirts of the flat clearing. Umber realized that some of the magic he felt was what the mages had used to dig so deep. It was mostly just magical residue left behind from recent spells. Though there still was that something more. They had moved on to the harder rock that was little more than gravel now.

“what should we do?” Dalton asked Jessabele, knowing full well they would be in huge trouble if they didn’t make a move now. If there boss found out that they had allowed the Kuhna to fish through the piles of rock and dirt, even if it was something so insignificant it would be their heads mounted on a wall. Shown to everyone as an example of what happened to people who didn’t follow the rules and just sat around. He had no ideas, his mind wasn’t wired that way, he was more of a brute force kind of guy and even then he was usually too polite to cause any one harm.

Though if he was being attacked he had a powerful fire blast spell he could use to send them crying for their mothers. But these two weren’t doing much more than sifting through useless rock. They weren’t trying to steal anything and they didn’t go into the hole. Maybe they knew of something that the guards didn’t. Dalton doubted they were that clever. He had underestimated them once and he was underestimating them again.
