Dark Coyote’s call earlier really didn’t faze him at all, true he was now man down but to honest he find him to be any use to him. He gave the destruct code for Dark’s cuff to fry themselves making them useless and eliminating any of his technology.

They continued to walk along down the road; Dr. Weird could see that they were getting closer to their destination. To help him pass the time he started to play some music in his head so no one else could hear it.

He decided to practice going Digital again.

Dr. Weird and Tang Le had taken a pleasant stroll together. The two were just a few yards away from their destination. Across the street from the location there stood a construction site. It was busy with a crane, bulldozer, and a bobcat. The pair were overlooking the noise, which stood them in good ground. The sidewalk before them buckled and bent, a series of thick vines protruded and stretched their thorny arms out toward Dr. Weird and Tang Le.

"You'll never get away with it, Doctor Weird," A strange voice emitted from a petit feminine form. It wasn't a typical woman, however, she was composed of twisting vines, roots and flowers. A thick moss coated her like clothing. She had been sent after the Doctor after Dark Coyote had been taken in dead. She was assigned to follow his signal, and had been trailing him for a few minutes now. She had a communicator lodged deep within the sinews of her makeshift head and had been given a rundown on the man she was sent to pinpoint. All signs pointed to him being Dr. Weird from the United States.

"My name is Overgrowth," She said abruptly, "I have been summoned to stop you."

Plants and vines started to grow on Dr. Weird as this new opponent sprang up out of the sidewalk.

“Stop us from what may I ask, we’re just here sightseeing. And might I ask that you have the wrong person, my name is Xander Cruise.” Said Dr. Weird with a sly grin on his face.

When Tang Le made her Hair Hammer it took Overgrowths attention off Dr. Weird and put it on
her. This gave him the opportunity to free himself.

While no one was watching Dr. Weird he went into his Digital Form leaving the plants and vines to fall from him. He then took one step forward leaving the plant life behind him.

“Well that was an inconvenience,” he said as he raised up his cane which suddenly started emitted a form of energy turning it into a beam saber.

Marah hid against a wall as, to what she believe to be, a fight goes on. She heard a voice on the intercom went off and some guys was speaking. The sudden voice scared Marah a bit. Marah peaked over a part of the wall and saw the man standing there looking at the two boys. She watched as he turned off the alarm and she heard him talking. The only thing she heard from the man was:

"Sticking together is the best thing we can do right now. I don't want the deaths of either of you boys hanging over my head if I get out of here just fine and leave you to the dogs. The last thing you want is to turn a corner and have one of these murderers up close on you. We need to get outside and find a safe place to hole up until backup arrives and captures these cons. You ready to go?"

She didn't understand what was going on, but it seemed to her that these guys only bring trouble. This trouble seemed to involve her, but she doesn't care...

"I just need to go home, and figure out what in the world is going on here." Marah quietly says to herself.

She looks back into the room and dashes out back into the hallway.

Marah attempts to use Novice skill Teleport Object on her top hat. 1-8 is a failure, 9-10 is a success.

Overgrowth looked with shock at Dr. Weird. He shed the plant life as if it was nothing. She had missed his delivery and had no idea how he stripped them. She was preoccupied with Tang's impressive hair.

"You may control your hair, but I control the life we all take for granted." Overgrowth growled in a strange tone at Tang Le.

As Skylar walks into the shop, his feet tingle for a bit which spreads to the rest of his body. He just shakes it off before looking at his hands. He glances up again to the burly man in the shop. After a second, he looks around at all the items in the shop, amazed. He had never been around any of this sort of stuff.

“Wow, this place is pretty cool!”

Skylar then looks back to the man. He walks over to him still kind of glancing around at all the items in the shop. Once near the guy, he stops and looks up at him.

“Umm, this is going to sound weird a bit, but would you happen to know anything about a skull? That may or may not be made of crystal?”

Alyson watched from behind masculine eyes as a strange young man walked in. He was muscular and seemed out of place. Speaking English, she took him for an American. Seeming pleasant enough, she was practically comfortable with him, until he uttered a phrase about the skull. This was it.

"I- I ah... um," Alyson's burly voice mumbled. She felt like a fragile girl, even though she didn't look the part. "There's nothing like that here," she stumbled again. He would certainly notice the lie. "Can I interest you in anything else? Maybe some sage? Keep the home free of visitors."

Skylar shakes his head while still looking around the shop. He notices many interesting things in that shop.

“Sorry, I would normally love some of this stuff, but this guy wants me to find this crystal skull. You have many cool things in here, but do you by any chance know anything about the skull or where it may be?”

Skylar turns a bit to look more at the shop but not enough to shop his back to the man.

The American was making her nervous. She knew she could try to cast the circle and be safe, but she needed to collect Fievel and the skull first, without being noticed. Fievel seemed to watch the young man, protecting her human. Perhaps the large cat would catch him off guard, Fievel was almost as big as a retriever.

"Who would send you to find something as awful as that?" She retorted, trying to take the upper hand in the conversation. "This is a respectable shop with a reputation, what would lead you to believe I'd have something like that here?"

Skylar slowly turns his body back to the man, the smile gone from his face. His eyes show that he is questioning something. He puts the thumbs of his hands into two of his belt loops. He takes two steps away from the man.

“I never said anything about you having it here.”

Alyson nearly jumped. She thought for a moment, feeling the weight of her enchanted necklace on her chest. She had put a courage ring on earlier, why wasn't it working. She glanced to her finger and realized it was between her thumb and her forefinger. Apparently it cured fear, but not anxiety. She slipped the ring back on.

"You certainly didn't," She said with a clear boost of confidence, "but your willingness to ask about it makes a man of my means uncertain. Who do you work for?"

Skylar noticed the man do something with his hand but he did not care to see what.

“A man who thinks he owns me, quite personally, I don’t care if he gets the skull or not. But if I had the skull, I could have it as leverage. You don’t need to be so uneasy about me. I’m not here to destroy your shop or anything. I just want to know where the skull is.”

The American seemed kind enough, however it was rather odd that he would bring up the skull at all. Even more odd that he would even mention the destruction of her store.

"I do not have anything here like that!" Alyson spat through masculine vocal chords. She hoped that the tone would be of opposition to the American and possibly scare him off. "Are you going to buy anything, or not?"

Skylar sighs at the man and his barking. He pulls his thumbs out from his loops then raises them high as he stretches with a yawn.

“Bud, I still haven’t said it was here. But now, I think it is. So yeah, I’m going to buy something. The only question is, are you going to give me what I want or not?”

Skylar brings his hands to chest level then cracks his knuckles. His hands then return to his sides with the thumbs back in the loops.

“I am quite possibly the best person for you to give the skull to. I like this place, its cool. I do not want anything bad to happen to it or you. There are quite a few people coming here to find the skull and believe me, I am the only one who doesn’t want to kill you. “

Fievel wandered around the counter and rubbed comfortingly against Alyson's leg. She couldn't take it much longer and thought of giving in. She ducked beneath the counter and thought over the American's strange boastfulness, he really wanted the skull. "Tell you what. I can let you in on something good if you tell me your name." She fiddled with the safe door, concealing the skull.
