32nd of Summer, 504 AV OOCSince Mizuriel was walking home from his classes, he will have all of his medical equipment with him. Also if i have done something wrong, be sure to nudge me about it.  As Mizuriel was walking back from his studies, he could hear some sort of racket coming from somewhere behind him. Turning around slowly, he almost got knocked out when a single man pushed him to the side, rushing past him. He was followed closely by another four or five, Mizuriel could not tell all of them apart with his eyesight still blurry from hitting the ground. He got up slowly, trying to dust himself off before continuing his stroll home. That’s when he noticed one detail that should have not been there, blood. There was a bloody handprint on his shirt, and while it took him a while to get his mind in gear, once he did, he was quick to figure it out.
He was running in the same direction the other strangers went, praying that he comes there in time. It did not take him long to catch up to the group, as he could see them after a couple of chimes already. Stopping about fifty feet from the group, he could not see all of them, as his view got partially blocked by the building they were behind. However he could see two of them who looked like they were on guard duty. He knew what they were doing, it was so painfully obvious, yet all his mind gave him in return to his thought was the craziest possible idea.
Coming closer to the guards, he quickly got his hands back to their rightful places in the pockets. After all, he couldn’t scare anyone while swinging his marked hand around, if anything, it would make them even more confident. Stopping before the duo, he shook his head to the side, to make himself look a bit wilder than he usually seemed. Grinning in cold blood, he yelled past the two: “You will run away now, and I will not harm you, or you can keep messing with my target and get maimed?” the suggestion he proposed, seemed to get no response, as he could still hear sounds of a couple more hits landing onto his ‘target’.
For a moment everything was silent in the air, unlike his brain that was working as fast as it could. Thinking of ways to escape should this gambit fail. He thought he heard a small metallic click, but he disregarded it completely as in the very next moment, he could hear a rash voice: “Aye boys, we’re moving out…” the guards obeyed first as they just walked past Mizuriel, barely paying attention to him. What followed them was a group of three more, but only two of them brushed past. The third, however seemed to be more interested into chit chat than the rest. “We're done here anyway, be sure to play with the bastard while his breath still lingers. We be seein’ you.” and with that all of them were moving away. The rest of the party seemed to wait for the man, until he caught up. Once he did, he simply gestured them to keep walking, and they listened without objection.
Only when his gaze escorted them around the corner, did he feel relief. The concealed fear and the overjoyed feeling of success where now mixing on his face, while his body was trembling with uncertainty. This was probably the craziest thing he had ever done, and it…. It worked. Breathing slowly to calm himself, he proceeded into the alley to check on his patient… |
