Snippet #1534999

Adam stood still, as Roselin seemed to agree with his plan. That was something Seth rarely did. Seth always knew better when it came to plans that didn't involve anything that would get them in trouble. At least Seth thought so, but who cared right now. Adam's breathing stayed steady as Roselin got closer and repositioned herself. Adam was completely calm, almost eerily calm, especially to himself. He wrapped his arms around Roselin, although not in a way she couldn't pull out and he made sure his hands didn't go too low as well. That would have been both awkward, and highly improper.

As the two shared a look and moved closer though, Roselin suddenly pulled away. Adam didn't know why at first, maybe she was just nervous. He just had hoped he hadn't done anything to offend her. As she explained that Lilian found Seth though, Adam just nodded. He cleared his throat, and just nodded once more. "Of course, of course. We better get to them, after all who knows what kind of trouble they'll get into without us there." He smiled a bit as the next stage of the plan went into effect.

Rushed off once again, this time Adam and Roselin took cover behind a table with a Vase on it. Adam half wondered what the guards would do if they just found him, after all he was a guest in the castle. Maybe everything would be fine, although it was better to play it safe the sorry. "If it were maids, maybe it would have been too easy. Nothing good ever comes easy, so look at it as what we're doing must be amazing." He said, in a tone only Roselin would hear. It could hardly even be considered a whisper. He nodded as Roselin told him to hold still, but couldn't help but chuckle a bit as she did her half waddle. It wasn't the most prestigious move, but it was cute to watch nonetheless.

As Roselin did her thing with the mouse, Adam just watched. He didn't know what she was doing really, but she had the plan set in her head. Who was he to argue? When he got the all clear he rushed next to her, and finally it seemed like the two of them had a chance to breathe. Although Adam did regret a little, that his plan fell through. "Interesting and successful. I've gotta say, that's pretty creative."

Meanwhile, Seth and Lilian we're pretty much in the clear. It seemed there weren't as many guards around them. "Yes, quite overdue. Let's make haste then, after all the more time here the better chance we have at getting caught." The two did just that, and moved on. Somehow they avoided the guards, probably due to the distractions of Roselin, and in no time they had caught up. Finally as a group of 4 again, they could get out of here. Seth did have a plan for that, using his natural athletic abilities and his gift to help them escape. Okay, borrowing Adam's as well.

Seth smiled after they were all acquainted again. "Stay here, just a minute longer Lilian." Adam didn't know what Seth's plan was, but he seemed determined nonetheless. Better to just let Seth do his thing in these situations. Seth stood up when the coast was clear. He had noticed the holes in the upper parts of the walls for light to get in. Normally, most people couldn't get through these, of course it's near impossible from the outside unless you drop in from the top. The inside however, was a much more manageable to get too. At least for those who trained for this kind of thing. Seth never was big on fighting, so stealth movements and acrobatics most couldn't do was how he passed the time. At least the time he was supposed to be sparring with the others.

There was a table at the end of this hallway, but other then that it was pretty much a straight shot. Avoiding the guards was all he'd need to do. "Wait for my signal." Was all he said before taking off down the hallway as fast as he could. He was moving quick, but then heard it. The clanking footsteps of a guard coming by. There wasn't much time to react or think, but Seth had a plan. Adam had already figured out what Seth's intention was, and just nodded a bit. "Don't blink, if you do you'll miss what he does. Don't tell him I said this, but it's actually pretty cool."

Seth didn't stop, and he didn't even slow down. Instead, keeping his momentum, he went into a slide on the hallway floor. Straight under the table, under which he stopped. After the guard had passed him by, blissfully unaware of Seth's now hidden presence, Seth came out from under the table. He regretted not being able to keep all the momentum he had wanted, but was confident he had enough time to regain enough of it to do this. Finishing his sprint down the hallway, he ran straight into the wall. However he started running up it, rather then straight into it. Getting just enough distance up it, he was able to grip onto the very bottom of the opening. Using just his arms he pulled himself up and into the opening. Once there he looked outside. He saw the coast clear right there and just nodded back to the others.

Adam just shook his head. That kind of thing didn't really surprise him anymore. "Come on, I'll help us normal people get up there. After all not all of us can climb like a monkey." He said in a joking tone. He often would call Seth a monkey considering how well he could climb. The three of them got over there without having to hide under the table luckily. However, the next part would be tricky.

Seth whispered down to them. "Alright, Adam will help you guys up. There's a small ledge up here that we can stand up on, until Adam gets out here to help us down."

Adam just shook his head in a playful way. "Always putting me to work." He really didn't have a problem with it, although Seth could find his own way down. Not that Seth couldn't, making the "punishment" a bit less worth it. Adam helped Lilian up first, but didn't help Roselin up until he said something to her. He wasn't sure if she would be hesitant after what had happened earlier. "Roselin, don't worry. I won't let you fall, I promise." He was only trying to make her feel safer, and he raised her up there. He sent the bags they had packed up with her, and then followed quickly. He didn't want anyone up there longer then they had to be. He wasted no time at all in getting the girls down, followed by their bags, then himself and even Seth lastly. They didn't have the time for Seth to monkey around after all.

Seth stood there ready to go on, but he didn't exactly fully plan out the next steps. He figured a bit of gold lying around would be enough for a distraction, but he realized he didn't know how to even get off of the grounds. "Hope everyone's okay.... I'm embarrassed now, but I have no idea how to get out of here. I'm sure you two would know how to, right?"
