I can see where you are taking the story, and I like it! And yes, the robot is still with them. -=(X)=-=(+)=-=(X)=-=(+)=-=(X)=-=(+)=-=(X)=-=(+)=- TEREPO-TO! The party was back at the ninja HQ. "Look, Shukimoto." Racid starts. "About the artifacts you are stealing...". Shukimoto lies a hand on Racid shoulder. "Ofcourse, but first, you must be hungry. Come with me.". "But what about..." Racid starts, but the head ninja interrupts him. "They will be taken care of. Lets go." he says, and they start walking. "Psst! Nelfag!" Lucius whispers. "I know." Nelfag replies. "I will have to check it out more. In the meanwhile, Alos is in charge.". Lucius looks at the robot. "Why is he in charge?" he protests, but Nelfag can't hear him - he is already gone. -=(X)=-=(+)=-=(X)=-=(+)=-=(X)=-=(+)=-=(X)=-=(+)=- Nelfag crawls in the air tunnels of the ninja HQ. When he approaches to a cross, he hears two ninjas, one approaching from the left and the other approaching from the right. He waits until they reach the cross, and slams their heads one in the other. Nelfag removes their clothes, and positions them one atop the other. He giggles. "Their parents won't be pleased, but at least no one will believe them if they try to report about an intruder.". He opens a bottle of ale. "I hate to waste good ale, but just in case..." he spills ale on the "couple". Nelfag puts his ear on the floor of the tunnel. He recognizes Shukimoto's voice, and takes the turn to the right. Nelfag continues crawling. -=(X)=-=(+)=-=(X)=-=(+)=-=(X)=-=(+)=-=(X)=-=(+)=- A ninja servant looks at the rest of the party. "Where is the tall guy?" he asks. "He went to the bathroom." Alos replies. "Very well. I'll show you to your rooms." the ninja says, and leads Lucius, Ryla and Alos away.
