Bojovnik looked up from his parchment of paper. "Yup this looks like the place." He thought to himself as he looked over the house. It was a two story house that looked completely vacant. No sign of anything going on inside but that wasn't what he was hear for. His contract stipulated that on the second floor a pink necklace would be kept in a jewelry box in the master bedroom. That was the only other details given to him. Glancing around the house again he noticed the door open and then close, almost making no sound at all. He sighed. He had hopped at least this job could go nicely and have no trouble. Having no other option it seemed he would have to do this the more direct rout it seemed. Walking along the side of the house towards the back he saw no candles or any lights lighting up but figured that maybe the home owner went to bed. He arrived to the back door and looked upon it. A simple wooden door. Nothing special or anything. It didn't show any bit of royalty or higher place in life. It made no sense as to why a person like this would have a valuable necklace and have someone else wanting to steal it. Looking at the house made you think it was large but it was clearly not important in anyway. He checked his body over once again, making sure he had all the things he would need. He axe was were it always needs to be. Longsword in the correct spot armor placed on right it all seemed ready and good. Taking a nice long breath he tried to open the door. The knob wiggled and wouldn't budge. "Of course not that would be just way to easy," Bojovnik thought to himself. He stepped away from the door and looked threw the window on the right side. It was still almost completely darkened inside the house. A few feet up was a split in the house that could be used to pull himself up and possible climb in through a window, but not being an expert jumper or having a partner to throw him up that option was off the table. It was starting to look like crashing in threw the door was the only option. Most likely the worst option would be doing that, its loud lets people know you came in and it makes you look careless. Some employers don't like it when you make a huge problem and become the talk of the town, yet some don't mind it. The man who gave him this job seemed to be more of the professional type. Thinking for a minuet he realized that maybe his employer wanted him to look unprofessional as to throw people off his trail. Being the only possibility that seemed to fit Bojovnik got ready to ram in the door. Stepping back in front of the door he felt the making in it and tried to open it once more. Still nothing. He took a few steps back and readied to run in. The door flew open with a loud "BANG". It took Bojovnik a few seconds to realize what happened and regain his senses. As he tried to stand up streak of pain shot up in his right shoulder, after a few seconds it went away but it defiantly hurt. The door was cracked down the middle, it was obviously poorly built Bojovnik isn't that strong. Wasting no time he decided to try and get out of the house as soon as possible. Standing up he walked in the kitchen and headed upstairs. |

Bojovnik turned the corner of the stairs in a rushed walk. He was trying to keep his cool and still maintain his situational awareness. Taking a steep in what he assumed was the largest bedroom from the details he was given about the house. He looked around the room just in time to see a woman throw a candlestick at his head. He made a quick jerk of his head expecting it to crash into his face if he didn't move. When he looked at were the candle DID his it was clear he wouldn't have to move anyway. Wasting no time he looked up and saw the sillout of what at first he believed the home owner but his eyes began to adjust. She was small and fit the personality of a thief. She didn't look armed which Bojovnik knew he could use to his advantage. It was poss- Suddenly she took off and was trying to get past him. Bojovnik pulled out his longsword and held it out towards her. Knowing she couldn't run anymore or risk loosing a few limbs it was clear she would have to stop. Not being a expert in his weapon didn't matter. She didn't know how skilled or unskilled he was. A person can talk all he wants and that's all that matters sometimes. "Nice try darling." Hoping she didn't take the neckless he needed. Not seeing the box in any relevant area he decided to make a gamble. "Allright were is it?" The only thing that could ruin this anymore would be if she had help. A sharp shiver ran threw his body. If anyone else was in this house he was surely dead but he decided it best to not even think like that. Since she hadn't called out to anyone it obviously meant she was alone. Bojovnik kept his eyes staring intimidatingly right at her waiting for an answer. |

"Finally someone who doesn't run away." Bojovnik thought to himself as the thief didn't charge out. A broken in house wouldn't draw as much attention if a body was left inside as well. Bojovnik examined her more as she spoke, it was hard to believe she was actually tired from that small sprint in the condition she looked, but it didn't matter he needed something from her and she was going to give it to him. Bojovnik made a chuckle when she tried to seduce him. It was an admirable try but not one he was interested in. If it was any other time he may have excepted the offer. But today it looked like she would only use it as a means of escape. The possibility of having a knife hidden was also increasingly worrying. He moved back as she tried to touch him. "You wont be telling anything, cause nothing going to happen." He stood closer to the door with his sword still in his hand but not pointed at the girl anymore. "Let me make this easy for you okay? Your in a house that was broken into from two ways, I'm guessing you came in threw the front door, and the door in the back is crashed on the floor. That wouldnt look good if I knocked you out and left you to be the scapegoat. So make this easier on yourself and give me what I want." He held out his sword again as he hoped his explanation would work. For all he knew she could be a deadly assassin who could beat him in a brawl no problem. Suddenly a noise echoes threw the house that makes him turn his body to look downstairs. The front door opens and someone was walking in. Bojovnik turns back around and points the sword at the thief. Knowing he cant leave a dead body he curses under his breath and speaks. "Alright I cant kill you right now but," he looks behind her at the window leading down from the house, "you cant run from this room past her or jump out that window at your height your sure to break a leg." the homeowner was complaining about candles missing and then started screaming when she saw the state of the door. " I jump down first and then I catch you breaking your fall...we both walk away, deal?" He held out his hand knowing time was a luxury they did not have. Bojovnik bit his lip hoping this plan would go over smoothly and she would see this is her only way out. |

It was clear she wasn't taking him up on the offer but he felt bad for her now. It was clear she wasn't the smartest thief in the world, far from it honestly. But this made it hard for him. Killing her was far too messy and would lead to an investigation. She walked back to the window ready to jump. "Damn fool." He thought to himself as he looked at her small body she was sure to hurt something from the fall. When she jumped Bojovnik ran towards the window and saw her trying to run again. He put one foot out the window and then another. crouching down a little smaller so he wouldn't make as much noise he leaped from the ledge. As he came down he rolled as well to help spread the impact out from around him causing him little pain. It may have been uncomfortable in his attire but it worked. Bojovnik stood up and scanned the area for the thief. She was running in a hobble and it clearly hurt her. Shaking his head he ran up to her and shoved her down to the ground. He hoped it wasn't too hard but he had to push her down. They were in an alleyway and the other scattered objects would hide them from view from the window. "Dumb fool, what were you thinking." He looked back towards the house and saw the women looking out from the window and then going back in. The screams seemed to echo threw ought the area and for the first time he heard a mans voice as well. "Great her husbands home...okay one final question for you thief, did you have any idea WHO you were robbing! I would hope being a thief you know about the criminals in this town and would know enough to not steal from one of the crime boss's mother! Do you have a death wish?" He looked back at the house hoping they wouldn't have seen the two yet. |

"Why does it never go smoothly!" He shouted as the thief ran off again. It wasn't the hardest he had ever been punched but she defiantly threw her entire body into it. Seeing her take off he tried to leap and catch her again but her foot got out of his grasp just in time. He cursed under his breath and scrambled to get up. Feeling he would need it later he slid his bow out and continued to run. The foot of this thief hurt but she defiantly knew Bojovnik could kill her if he got close enough. Turning a corner Bojovnik saw her leap into the water. Thinking that if she was a good swimmer this chase would be lost instantly. When he reached the canal in full sprint he had to slide down or risk falling into the water. Getting up he looked at this would be thief trying to swim. Not being a swimmer himself he still found the ordeal funny and began to burst out laughing. "You go girl I cant keep up." Due to her lack of skill Bojovnik only had to make a brisk walk to keep pace. Chuckling he drew his bow and readied an arrow. "Stop" he said calmly and waited for her to look at him, luckily she stopped and waited. "Don't make me kill you and come down their. Come on get out you can hardly swim anyway you look like a moron." He stood their waiting to see what she did all intent on killing her if need be. |
