As they made their way through the vent, Aetrius looked down and saw plenty of guards, and saw the nobleman with Kieran making their out of the inn, I knew it.. she thought to herself and carried on, seeing as how a heavy metal gate was just passed them below, seeing the due below pass through and the door being locked back up behind them. As she observed, the nobleman passed by less guards on this way, knowing the exit was coming up soon enough, she nodded. As the guards helped open the door for them, Aetrius signed to Linde to cover her mouth and nose, and she herself dropped down from the vent, and made sure that she blocked the door behind them so the guards couldn't come in as quickly as they normally could, after making sure she was good, she covered her mouth and nose with the cape of her outfit, and took out one of the smoke bombs from its place by her hip, and use it, tossing it at the guards' feet, seeing it go off, the guards coughing and soon passing out, and seeing the nobleman run off with Kieran who looked back at Aetrius with shock as she was wisked away.
Aetrius growled and helped Linde down from the vent, and with ease they passed the guards, and while in their dazed stuper she took their weapons, handing Linde one of their swords and knives, and as well slitting their necks as she moved their leather armor from the soft spots. She knew an action like this would piss off Linde, but it needed to be done to make sure they'd have enough time to chase after Kieran. After the four guards were easily dispatched of, Aetrius and Linde left the room and carried on after them after corridor. Eventually they found the nobleman and Kieran, cornered at the final door with two guards, who turned to Aetrius and Linde, "It's the end of the line for you two." one of them said.
Aetrius grinned and with ease and her swiftness at hand, she threw her dagger and it lodged itself into one of the guard's eyes, his body crumpling to the ground. "Now, Kieran!" Aetrius exclaimed, and Kieran with just as much ease grabbed the last guard from behind and grabbed him by the back of the neck and slammed him into the wall, leaving him unconscious and crumpling to the floor. Kieran grinned as she looked at Aetrius, but was currently unsure of who she was exactly. But in her dazed state she was grabbed by the nobleman as he held a knife to her throat, "Don't make me gut this slut like the whore she is, bitch. Go back and leave us be with my, prize" he said as he looked at Kieran with desire filled eyes. Aetrius let out a groan of disgust at his actions, "Are you really all the same? Even nobleman can't be above this? Granted, you did come to this kind of event..Disgusting piece of vermin." she growled. The man looked at her and scoffed, "Oh please, bitch. This whore means nothing to you, just go." he said as he held the knife closer to Kieran's throat.
"Just go, okay? I mean nothing to you, mistress. Just get out of here with your slave already. I'm nothing more than a useless slave to them by now. You lost the auction just go alre-" she was cut off as Aetrius moved closer, closing the distance between them finally. But before she could do anything, Kieran easily whipped around and disarmed the man and slammed him into the wall face first, seeing his body go limp she dropped him on the dime and turned back to her rescuer.
"So you really don't recognize me, huh Kie?" she said softly with a bit of sadness in her tone. "Why would I know who you...wait...K...Korriban?" she asked softly, her voice filled with surprise and shock, as well as happiness as her eyes filled with tears as she looked at Aetrius. Aetrius smiled and nodded, her own eyes beginning to fill with tears, "H-heh, yeah...H-hey, big sis." Aetrius said softly as she finally closed the distance between them, and gently caressed Kieran's right cheek, looking at Kieran who was now slightly shorter than her. Perhaps it was the scars, or maybe the fact that Aetrius was now older and looked slightly different or maybe even Kieran began to forget what she looked like, but Aetrius knew that deep down Kieran recognized her. Kieran's eyes filled with more tears and immediately clung to Aetrius as she realized it was her sister, the two holding tightly to each other as they wept for a moment, holding each other tightly, finally being reunited at last. Aetrius gently wiped Kieran's tears away and gently kissed her forehead and took a step back, "All will be explained soon, I promise you. But we need to get out of here, now. We have more people waiting for us outside, we'll escape by the south gate. Now, you with us, Kie?" she asked, Kieran looked at Aetrius and nodded then looked at Linde, "Are you really a noblewoman now or...is she your girlfriend?" she questioned as she eyed Linde some, Aetrius chuckled at her comment and shook her head, handing Kieran a weapon of her own, as well as some of the clothing from the nobleman as she would need some protection from what was to ensue.
"This is Linde..My...My girlfriend, yes. All will be explained later with some drinks, okay? Just now we need to get you out of here, and by now I can bet that more guards are on their way...Speak of the devil..." she muttered as at least ten heavily armed and armored guards charged into their escape route and looked at them as they prepared to take on three barely equipped women. Aetrius looked at Kieran, "You with me on this, Kie?" she asked, Kieran looked at her sister and nodded with an evil smirk, "Always, sis." she said as the two stood infront of Linde, blades in a defensive stance and ready to take on as many guards as they could until Lolan and Kyero came to help, which would hopefully be soon. "Heresta help us..." she murmured.
