Null watched from the trees as he awaited for a carriage to pass along with some escorts. he loved to watch things and watching the event he had set up, all he had to do was learn of a greedy rich merchants traveling plans and inform -anonymously of course- a bandit group of said merchants plan's, and now he just had to wait and watch and see the results.

Shaynly Mistwolf, more commonly known as Shay, sat on a talk grey horse just back into the trees. Some guy had told one of her people that there was a caravan coming through this way. She smiled brilliantly, though her pale grey eyes had no changebin emotion, not that Shay was emotionless, in fact she was quite the opposite, but her eyes where such a light color that thy do not show it. After her scouts had scoured he area to make sure that this was not some sort of trap, she an her group settled down to wait for the merchant to get.in the middle of te ambush area

"Alright get ready." Shay said to her companions, some of whom where on horses, others on foot. "Kafen, cover me. Everyone get their weapons." one of the men on a big brown horse stayed by her as she say still and began cratiig an illusion, one of the things hat made her and her companions so good at this. She was a highly accomplished illusionist without a luck of schooling from that fancy academy, all if her knowlage inherited from her family.
Her people move amoung the guards their movements, sounds, and even some of their smells mask sny the powerful illusion Shay was casting. The guards lost heir swords an arrows, fake ones taking their place, when they went toget them they would find nothing but air

Meanwhile inside the Front Carrage" Sir...a spell has been cast" said a man whose face had been hidden under a gray hooded robe
" What kind Lucius?" Said a black haired man who wore equally dark armor, usually a sign of a knight without a lord, a black night.
"Illusion sir, Shall I Dispell it ,sir?" Lucius asked and his leader nodded, so Lucius raised one of his hands, snapped his fingers and waited ".....It failed sir, whoever is casting the illusion must be powerful"
"Indeed.....Then Can you dispell it around us if possible" He asked, Lucius nodded and again raised his hand ,snapped his fingers and said
" That should have worked sir" He said and the man in black armor motioned for one of the guard inside the carrages to quietly look out the window
the guard looking concern turned backed to the black armored man and quietly said" We are being followed by bandits sir, they have quietly stolen our guards weaponry and they walk unaware of this"
"I see.... This is most troublsome, it seems they are from the Mistwolf bandits if they use such a sophisticated technique" he closed his eyes and contemplated, then looked at Lucius "Lucius, would you kindly form a barrier around the second barrage, wouldn't want the client to get in harms way for this upcoming storm" Lucius nodded and clasped his hands together and began mumbling some incoherent phrases
" Sir, what about the men outside, should we not do something about the guards who follow them?" asked the guard
The man in black armor shok his head in said" No, with there weapons taken and the bandits following them then they are already dead, and there may be more bandits following from afar so we must act as if we haven't learned of their ruse"
---------------------
Meanwhile, from the tree's watched intently as he noted what was going from a distance, since he was not within the Illusions ranges he could see quite clearly what was going on, he could also feel a slight tingle as another spell had been cast, whoever cast it was rather quiet about it.

Shay also noticed the other spell and frowned slightly"Now what are you trying to hide in there." she mumbled "Alle, go see of you can cut the horses's harnesses off on the second carriage." the man nodded and rode up to the second one still under he illusion and pulled out a sharp little knife glowing in spells to cut through most anythin including ward spells.

"Sir, one of the bandits on horseback is nearing the clients carrage with what appears to be a knife, your orders?" Askes the guard in the front carrahe as he observed quietly
"Well then, I suppose there is only one thing to.do" he calmly smiled as he poled his jead out of the window " MEN , GALLOP AT FULL SPEED, WEVE GOT COMPANY" he shouted and suddenly the horses and carrages quickly picked up speed in an attempt to leave the bands in the dust

Hay cursed and dropped the illusions. The group launched into action without a word from Shay, all of them havoc Bren with her for many years. Shay kicked her horse into action. Alle cut a hole into the spell an reached. In and cut the horse's harness. The oyhe carriages also had their horses' harnesses cut.
"Let first one go!" Shay called leaving it to got away as the rest of the guards where being knocked from their horses and off the of the carriages so they could be easier be taken care of the bandits havin orders for knock outs instead if kills if at all possible.

"Sir..."Lucius looked at the black armored man who nodded in annoyance.
"Yes yes, I know, make sure this one doesnt get attacked as well" He ordered as he jumped out of the moving carrage and calmly walked back to where the surrounded second carrage was" he must be wetting his pants by now" he mused as he thought about that annoying merchant

Shay cut him off cantering with her horse, the illusions dropped.
"Why don't you just go back the way you came" she ordered leaving off the or you will get hurt spheil able to see this man would easily be able to take care of himself. One of the bandits still back in the trees shot an arrow at the first carriage with flickerig flames on the rend and the shaft filled with gunpowder. It hit just under the wheel axel

"Thank you for the suggestion " He said as he continued moving forward without much if a care, the flaming arrow seemingly losing its heat as it was ingulfed in ice.

"The merchant hire you?" Shay asked readyto fight if he attacked.
The archer sighed and reached out and used his bit of magic and re-engulfed the arrow in flame along to shaft giving his bow to a friend who started shooting at it

Again the arrow froze while the other unlit arrows attacked the carrage" Well, this is troublesome" said the guard inside the carrage as an arrow flew past him as it flew out the window, Lucius nodded at the comment as he made sure to slowly freeze the feet belonging to the two bandits outside.
"Yes, yes I am" he smiled as he walked past her " Now excuse me while I get him out of a rather uncomfortable situation " again, he chuckled as he placed his hand behind his back and clasping them together"

Shay raised an eyebrow at him. "if you just want to take him feel free, but if not..."
The one bandit frowned and unfroze their feet and set up a sheild to hopefully stop that from happening. The one made sure that the carriage was stuck full of arrows

"Oh, you will see" he smiled as approached the second carrage as the other bandits looked at him warily, he opened the door and" Feeling alright in there?" In response he recwived a number of colorful curse words then he immediatly closed the door " He is fine" Smiling, he pulled out a broad sword and then glared at the bandits " Do realise that youve brought this upon yourselves.

Shay swung off her horse. "you guys get busy, I'll take Carr of him." she saw walking over. They nodded and backed off.
The mage set the arrows on fire blowing the back of the carriage out

"This has gotten much more annoying " said lucien as he stepped out of the ruined carrage" Would you just sit tight " he devlared as he the bases of the few trees surroumnding the bandits" else an accident shall occure"
The blacked haired man narrowed his glare at the fe.ale bandit " Obviously, the famous leader " h eguessed as pointed his blade at her

"I did? How fortunate" He said as he began circling the bandit " I am quite curious, how did you learn that we were taking this route ? I am rather certain the only my men , the merchant and I knew of our traveling plan.....and the merchant along with my men are not careless as to reveil it" He frowned as he awaited a response
-------------------------------
Null was Intently watching the devolpoments occuring ' Interesting, so many variables have occured now the result of who will turn out to be the victor seems to be even more unclear" he thought

"Sheesh, take everything literally don't yah?" Shay said movin with him so she was infront of him at all times obviously light in his feet. His heavy armor would be a huge disadvantage to him in this fight because Shay was so much lighter and quicker.
"Well we just got the information passed to us if you must know." the if you must know part was just Shay's own natural snarky-ness showing through.

((I'm rather sure I said Null gabe the information annonimously, as in shay and her group would not know who he is xp))
The black armored man noted her nimblness, and smiled inwardly , she seemed confident her speed would provise an advantage

X3;;right sorry))
Shay waited for him to make the first move while some of the bandits retreat with the last wagons.
The bandits in the woods retreated back to the main group to back up Shay in case she needed it and looking for a chance to get the second carriage. There where several very potabt spell casters in the group

((*in thick spanish accent* s'alright))
The black armored man stopped circling around the female bandit and with his free hand formed a lance made of ice and threw it at her, purposely missing.
Lucius on the other hand become increasingly annoyed, flames forming from his hands " Please stop being so aggrevating, otherwise..." he spread his flame coveres hands and began fire flames at the threes, threatining to set them on fire

One of the bandits poked his head out looking at Lucius "hey, their national trees, if you set 'em on fore it's you're problem! The Empire can chew you're head for it!" he called before vanishing back into the trees.
Shay raised an eyebrow wondering what he was up to. She did a breif anilization of the ice. So, this guy used magic? Alright Shay would continue to keep her distance.

"hmph..... I am already in deep complications with them" He said without a care and continued to spread the flames, the guard who was next to the carrage
"Lucius, we may not care, but what of the client" He received ni response other than the flames intensity increased
The man in black armor again formed another Ice Lance, and again threw it at the female bandit and purposely missed

Shay started to go backwards to see if she could draw him away from the carriage wanting to give some of her people time to check it for valubles.
The bandits dispersed back into the trees going to Shay not caring if he wanted to burn the trees or not.

The man in black armor sighed as he formed another Lance" oh please be serious, I've been giving you a good deal of openings little miss, and yet you don't seem to notice" He said agan throwing the Ice lanc and purposely missing "Are you that wary, or that weak?" He then placed his left hand on the ground and cold ice began t engluf the ground , creating a slippery footing. He then notice Lucius' reckless Flam throwing and sighed, formed another Ice lance and threw near Lucius.
Lucius mumbled as he stopped throwing flames, it was enough anyway as the fire would begin to spread " Hmph.........You better do something boy, Would not want those Bandits to take the other carriage where our client is" he said to the guard
" I'm the same age as you Lucius, stop calling me boy" the Guard said as he placed his on what seems to be a swordless hilt, untill he pulled on and his 'belt' began to unwrap, revealing the weapon to be an Urumi, a long, flexible, whip like sword. Lucius cringed as he saw the weapon. although whiplike it was more dangerous due to the fact it was a sword and thus misuse of it would result in more than just a light wound, infact it would cause lethal wounds. The guard went into the trees in search of these elusive bandits

Shay smiled at him and shrugged "you're the one who wants to fight, not me, you get serious. Really if there's nothing in that or the first carriage that I can use, I'm perfectly fine with ending this right now."
The bandits kept well away from him following Shay's orderes to engage in fighting as little as possible. The trees would make the guards sword of not much use an on the the spell casters was already starting to kill the fires.

" Your the one who wants whats in it, Im doing my job by keeping you away from it miss bandit." He responded as he leaned agains the carrage "unless you yourself act serious or get lost, then I am willing to stand here all day" again he formed something out if his ice, this time throwing knives, and threw them directly at here, and formed a few more and threw them at her bandit cronies hiding amongs the trees, responding to the movements they make amongs them

Shay easily ducked the knives and used one if her returningthroeig knives to knock the ones thrown at her people out of tr air "So there is something in there other than fat whiny merchant?"
