She didn't like mages, as a rule. This combined with knocking her out and tying her up did not exactly help Santiago's case when it came to trusting him, which she didn't. |
"I'm afraid I don't understand it either," Santiago said impatiently. "But there you go. That was my vision and you're stuck with me until we can figure it out." _________________ A path taken is paths forsaken.

The door broke down and a troop of guards marched in.
"Elizabeth Callahan and Mage Santiago, you are under arrest on orders of the Baron for conspiracy of theft!" the sergeant announced loudly. "Come quietly or we will be forced to take you by force." _________________ Delicious tea, or deadly poison?

The door broke burst open and she saw the guards. She decided now would be a good time, with guards pouring in to play up maiden in distress.
"Help! Get him away from me!" She wriggled once again against her bonds.
She was not sure what this would look like to the guards,but she was obviously not playing buddy buddy with the mage. |

Santiago whipped out his wand and pointed, encasing the guards in blocks of ice. He then pulled out a knife and cut Talis' bonds and grabbed her hand towards the window, shattering it and landing on the streets.

Tali jerked away from as he led her down the street.
"I am not your friend!" She snapped. |

"I never said you were," Santiago said mildly and gripped her arm tightly again and pulled her down the street. _________________ A path taken is paths forsaken.

Arrows lanced into the room. An entire battalion it seemed had laid siege to the apartment.
"We are ordered to take the girl alive!" a shout was heard. "Kill the mage if he proves to be trouble!" _________________ Delicious tea, or deadly poison?

Tali saw the arrows and the damage being done to the apartment as the mage dragged her down the street. She heard the voices, 'take the girl alive...'. This day kept getting better and better.
"If you don't want to get caught you'll take the next alley on your right." She said just loud enough for Santiago to hear, "and you'll let go of my arm before you cut off my circulation."
He had a strong grip for a mage, though she though it might have something to do with how tiny she was. |

Santiago nodded and turned down the alleyway, sending another blast of magic over his shoulder and turning the street to a slick mass of solid ice. _________________ A path taken is paths forsaken.

A figure in the shadows pursed his lips at this. It would be imprudent to make a move at the moment. Time would reveal all. For now, he would watch the City Watch bumble after them.
As for his allies, they would enlist some other aid. Aid that could more effectively combat a mage. _________________ Delicious tea, or deadly poison?

Tali pulled ahead of Santiago and led the way through the alleys. She already knew where they were. Now to find a safe spot to bunker down and wait for Garret to find them, and where she could figure this all out. |

Santiago followed Tali to her safehouse, slightly out of breath, grateful she wasn't complaining about him being with her anymore. He found his thoughts turning to Garrett and hoping that the man was okay. _________________ A path taken is paths forsaken.

A small, cold, dark, dank, unpleasant cell. He'd come peacefully. No reason dying when you can not. Still, these were not the sorts of accommodations he had in mind.
Whatever happened, however, he was bound to get payback for whoever sold him out. At the moment, that appeared to be Santiago. _________________ Delicious tea, or deadly poison?

Tali swore under her breath.
"Just so we get this straight, I don't trust anyone until i figure out what hell's going on."
She sprawled out on a bed, watching Santiago carefully. |

Santiago smiled slightly, but otherwise said nothing. There was nothing to do now until Garrett came back. _________________ A path taken is paths forsaken.
