The party left in a carriage with a young rich individual who wore a mask and a modified voice, “you know for someone so wealthy it's a bit odd we’re traveling by carriage.” Zack pointed out. “No need to worry my young demi, it's just because I’d rather not be spotted by anyone and my usual travel methods stand out like a sore thumb.” The rich hirer answered. After a certain point the rich person had the party hide in the surrounding area and travel in the shadows behind the carriage. “So Teac-” Zera is shushed while trying to ask Cel a question. Cel then tapped his head twice and Zera started to hear his voice in her head. “Don’t talk out loud just think the question”
“What the..”
“Yeah telepathy anyways your question?”
“What is the goal of this mission”
“Simple guide the rich guy safely to wherever he's going without being spotted”
Cel tapped his head twice and the conversation was over, the party kept dashing through the forest on the ground, jumping tree to tree, and slashing through bushes. Zera had used illusion magic to make the party look more like the beasts of old to blend in better. They soon arrived at a nearby town and the rich hirer signalled for them to leave their hiding place and return.
The party dashed towards the carriage with the rich hirer at full speed as they heard a cannon shot off in the distance. Out of nowhere they see a small man riding onto a cannonball heading straight for the carriage. “Grah they found him and us” Alucard belowed in annoyance. “Wind sprint” Cel, Zack, and Zera speak while coating themselves in wind. The vampire mumbles something as he passes all three of them, and catches the cannonball along with the little man, just about 30 feet away from the carriage. Alucard tanks the explosion and tosses the little man back towards where he came slowly descending back to the ground unleashing a strong pressure. The vampire walks over to the carriage and begins talking with the person who hired them, ending the conversation grumbling. “Hey you three help me with this for a second would ya!”
“Alright then.” Zack replies.
“On three we pick up the carriage”
“What” Zera askes
“One, Three”
The vampire and the party begin to lift the carriage off the ground as they can hear more cannon shots in the distance. Pressed for time the four of them create a barrier around the carriage and throw it north of the village about 15 miles three of them immediately head for where the carriage is going to land while Zack stays behind for a moment to create a barrier around the small village.
Gah well I guess stealth isn’t much of an option anymore so we’ just need to take out those who are after us. I just hope those thugs don’t attack that poor village just because we were going to stay there. Well since the other three are going on ahead and guiding the carriage far away I should make sure they keep that distance. Leaving outside my carrier I flew up into the air using wind magic rather than my wings because I didn't need the initial stage to take these guys out. I looked around for a while to see if I could find them but even after an hour of searching I couldn’t find them. “Damn it where are they, did they already expect this!” welp time to try and catch up with the group at the next planned village wait…
