Bayli had wondered of from her clan, wondering off was becoming a habbit she wouldn't notice till she was far away from where she came from. she wouldn't wonder off so much, but she was getting board with gypsy life. She often wondered what life would be like if she wasn't a gypsy. Would she be married off already at her age? Would she be working in a tavern or a small shop?

A group of children ran infront of her playing, a few bumped into her, snapping her out of her out of her thoughts. It was a nice day to be in the market. Between some of the you could see the sea in the distance. She loved when her caravan was near the sea.

Seaguls flew over head, and above them were the clouds. In the distance you could see some storm clouds that were headed in the markets direction. Bet the weather were she was had not turd bad yet.

The bad weather in the region was the reason Rurik was here, walking aroud the market place. He had brought his ship to dock here after he got wind of the weather from a merchant ship he had passed by on the way to port. In light of the storm clouds on the horizon, the pirate strategist had decided to stay at port for the safety of his ship. The weather had been wild and unpredictable and news of disasters throughout avalon made him wary to go anywhere.

Now, The Pirate was walking down a street in avalon city. In one hand he was holding a bottle and in the other he was holding his shipping manifest. His attention was focused nowhere in particular as he wandered down the street, weaving around the crowds. Eventually he passed through a group of children, where he started paying attention for once.

She heard some yelling and looked over in the direction of where it was coming from. She couldn't help but smile and let out a quiet laugh, at what she say. Two seaguns were harassing a poor fish merchant. One seagun would swoop down and try and take a fish as the other bird tried to distracted the merchant but landing on his head. The fish merchant was yelling and swinging his arms trying to shoo away the birds before they took all of his fish. Other merchants that were near rushed to to the fish stand in attemps to help, but they to only got flocked by other seaguls that had flown in.

Bayli's laughter grew alittle bit more, she had never seen anything like this in her adventures with her caravan. Events like this just made her love of the shore and the sea a bit more.

Bayli hadn't realized she stopped walking, she had been to distracted to notice. She didn't even notice the ocastional person run into her in their hurry to get somewhere.

HOT PINK CARROTS.
Rurik wasn't paying all that much attention to his surroundings either, but it was for different reasons. The antics of the birds didn't get his attention in the slightest as he walked by, too busy reading the manifest to actually take notice of the occurence. He had seen it before, so it wasn't that much of an occurence, in fact that last time he took the oppurtunity to snatch a fish in the midst of the chaos.

The pirate wasn't paying anywhere near as much attention as he should have when he walked into the woman laughing. What happened was more than enough to get his attention as he knocked heads with the woman. Sure he had been in this sort of situation atleast once before, but generally it didn't hurt that much, But it's what he got for not paying attention.


Lo there do I see my father,
Lo there do I see my mother, my brothers, and my sisters,
Lo there do I see the line of my people,
Back to the beginning,
Lo they do call to me and bid me take my place among them,
In the halls of Valhalla,
Where the brave may live forever

A pain shot through her head, and her hand instinctively when to where the pain first started. A line of swears fluently slid from her mouth, as she rubbed the spot and looked at the man who had just ran into her hitting his head on hers. How it happened she wasn't sure about.
" Hey you should watch were you're going!" she spat at him, she didn't have to be nice to people right now, they (the people) weren't throw money into a violin case right now. She scanned the man, maybe she was picking fights with the wrong person. He had a bottle in one hand and a paper in the other, she was used to drunks. But the only type that would be dressed like that and carrying those idems would be a pirate, but what did she know, she wasn't in these parts much. He could just be... a fisherman, who docked because the weather soon to come?

"Well, maybe you shouldn't stop in the middle of a crowd" Rurik responded, looking at her as he rubbed his head. He wasn't thrilled by this situation in the slightest and having this woman yelling at him was quickly begining to remind him of the time Rose spent some time on his ship when she was less than reasonable.

Rurik straightened the headband he wore, which had shifted when they knocked heads. The only real purpose the peice of cloth served was to keep his hair out of his eyes, which wasn't working so well right now. He could feel the breeze picking through his hair, an ominous reminder of the storm that was on it's way; steadily drifting to port.

She couldn't help but to say something back. "if you weren't reading that stupid paper in your hand we would have never had this problem now would we!?"

She glanced back over at the cart but the birds were gone and the show was over. She did notice that the clouds that were at the harizon were alot closer than they were last time she checked. Noticing this now, the wind had also picked up but not by much. the birds must have noticed the weather changing she thought to herself.

"Didn't your mother ever teach you any manners?! Do you always just run into people, almost giving them a cuncusion and not even saying sorry" she said, much atitude leaking through her voice along with anoyance. who cares if this guy is a pirate or not she thought, she was going to throw a fit because she could and because it wasn't often she could treat other poorly.

"Did your parents ever teach you not to stand in the middle of a crowd like that?" Rurik quickly shot back. He was wandering just how long this would go on, he had other things to do; like hangout in The Anzu while the storm passes."Guess they left common sense out" Was the next thing he said, not giving the woman a chance to respond. Rurik wasn't about to get violent over this like most pirates do, in his case he was tame by pirate standards. In fact the only people he had pirated were other pirates, it's just some side effect of having a ship with a coat of metal on it.

Some of the passerby were stopping to stare at the two arguing, but most of them were closing their windows and preparing for the coming storm. Rurik himself had heard of some bad ones to the south east, rumors circulating about were claiming numerous shipwrecks along the coast and the glass cliffs.

Bayli opened her mouth to reply but couldn't think of a come back. She also noticed the crouds, some people had stopped to watch the two fight. Her eyes paused on several of the merchants for two or three seconds each, watching them take down their stands and putting their stalk into containers to carry home before the storm.

If Bayli wasn't so content on staying aslong as she could in the market near the sea, she would have went back to the caravan before the storm struck. It would be safer if she stayed in one of the buildings durring the storm, and not a flimsy tent. A tent that would most likely tear with the hail and wind that will soon come.

In the distance thunder could be heard just above the murmer of the crowd. 'At least my mother taught me not to become a drunken pirate like yourself!" she finally said.

That alone made Rurik laugh aloud at her."You should work on your drunk sighting talents young one" He said to her jokingly. Just because he was carrying a bottle didn't mean he was a drunk; he had just bought it at a local tavern as he was wandering around town. The growing winds quickly changed Rurik's focus from the girl to the weather. He could feel the growing breeze on his clothes now as the dark storm clouds ominously crept towards Trevena port. From the looks of it, Rurik could tell it was going to be a bad storm, maybe even the same storm he had heard about near his home town.

"You should probably avoid the taverns...with your drunk sensing abilities you'll probably start chatting it up with the town drunk" Rurik said to her, grining a bit as he spoke. It was an amusing sight in his mind and he would not have been surprised if she took a swing at him for that comment. Not that he wasn't used to women taking swings at him, there have been days when he was wary of that.

The wind blew bayli's hair into her face. Fighting to keep it off of her face she replied, "At least he would be nicer than you!" She would have stalked off after that comment, but, she had gotten herself lost on top of everything else. Most gypsies had a keen since of direction, bayli on the other hand, had other talents. Like dancing and singing, and her... power.

"He would even be kind enough to buy me a drink." she commented under her breath, looking around trying to figure out which way was which again.

All of the market stands were off the streets and very few adults were on the street. But that group of children still played on, laughing and giggling away unaware of the weather.

Lightening flashed in the clouds and thunder was heard again, louder because it was closer than last time and the streets were quieter.

"You must not know the town drunk then" Rurik quickly retorted. He was finding this to be very amusing despite the storm approaching. He had captain stuff to do, like double checking the mooring and enjoying a bottle of rum during the storm. While Rurik had weathered through many storms, he had never seen anything like the monster off the coast. Unbeknowst to him, the elements were out of balance leading to the carnage that was occuring throughout avalon.

Rurik glanced around the area for a moment where he eventually noticed the town drunk, passed out against the side of a stone building. The man was quite literally sleeping in his own filth and several bottles were scattered about by his feet."If he would be so nice to you, maybe you should go say hi?" Rurik said, a grin evident on his face. The man was enjoying this for the moment, even though he would have to go see to his ship soon.

"If he would be so nice to you, maybe you should go say hi?" he said to her.

"Maybe i will!" she said, turning and stalking away up the street and into a rowdy tavern. The tavern that was one of the only in this part of the market. It was smaller, the tables were practicaly ontop of each other, almost every seat was filled with a body. If she was any fatter she would have had a hard time moving around in the building. what have i gotten myself into this time? she thought. there is a likely chance i could make it back to the caravan before the storm hits.

But as she thought this she heard over the noisey men, the rain start to fall. "oh boy" she muttered under hear breath. She sat down at the end of the less crowded table and watched the splatter of the rain on the window pains.
