The woman fell dead at his feet. She hadn't even known he was in her home, and the blade had hit hard. As she bled out before him, Ruru stepped back and sheathed the sword taking in a deep breath and letting out an audible sigh of exhaustion. He hadn't slept in some suns and he'd neglected his hygiene. Making his way through the home he looked through the belongings of the woman before finding what he'd been hired to collect. It was a set of rings, nothing particularly fancy or special. He put them in his pocket and was preparing to go.
Did ye make sure ye weren't seen? She wasn't teasing. She mentoring.
"Aye. I was quiet and she was alone." He whispered as he paused in his walk out.
An' now go give yer blessin' to the Handers little Flit. Make sure ye shine yer knees and pucker up while ye do." That was a scold and he froze.
"I'm kissing no one's ass." He said but didn't sound confident.
Are ye sure? Takin' on Handers contracts an' droppin' this lady fer a couple o' trinkets. An' here I thought you were a stand up guy." Her arms were crossed with a smirk on her face.
"You know why I'm doing this. I need to keep you safe. Keep your cover in tact." He was walking again, and at each turn there she was. Zhi with the scowl, the hard look like he'd insulted her. As he exited the building and hit the grasslands, he could hear behind him.
Oh! So yer savin' me Flit? Yer keepin' me safe from the big bad world I thrive in? Killin' folks for worthless rings an' savin' me all at the same time.Yer my hero, Flittermouse." The sarcasm dripped from every word and he scowled.
"I'm helping you..." His words were muttered as he passed a group of travelers and he appeared to be a bit strange, speaking to himself as he walked to return the rings to his employer and collect his money.
