So we have to wait two days before we can retrieve Emelio's half-sister.Rebecca and Emelio spend some "quite" time together, and later she goes out with the others to shop for items needed.It is during this timeas they are exploring some of the town, they hear a cry come from an alleyway ahead of them. Running around the corner so fast, that he is skidding on one leg, comes a very tall skinny man, with very vegrant looking clothing on, he runs past our group, slips in the mud farther down the street, and knocks himself out cold. Looking back the way he came, they see a group of six young men come rushingout of the alleyway, and seeing that their prey was down and out, slow down to walk leasurely towards him, having to pass us. The leader of the group straight arms Seig, to push him out of the way while telling him to move, but is unable to get him to move."What do you think you are doing, touching me, a Noble?" Seig saids to him.The man and a second one are stoped in front of Seig. "Get out of the way grampa, or we will make you." the first man saids."I can take on all six of you!" Seig replies, but the other four men still head towards the original person they were after.Rebecca and Rowena decide to try to talk to the other four men, while Renee waits with Seig. The men had reached the tall man, and were tieing him up, when Rebecca came over and in what little Eisen she could muster, informed them that maybe they should wait til they find out what results would be from the fight that Seig and their leader were in. One man turns to her and pulls out his knife, and looks back at the other men, smiling. "Lets have some fun!" he saids, learing back at her. She strikes out at him, hoping to slap him in the face, but he dodges, and slices out with his knife, cutting her across the cheek. Rowena pulls out her bow and arrow.Seig meanwhile is trying to fight off two men, and has aquired a couple of wounds to his ribs, where one of the men had attacked him while he parried the others blow. He had returned a couple of strikes, but hadn't been able to disable either man. He decides to act like he is woozy from the fight, to fake the men to coming closer to him, for a better chance to use his targeting ability. He is able to hit one man in the arm, then takes off the ear of the second man, and then get another strike against the first man, in the chest, but the man is still determined to fight.Rebecca, bleeding from her cut, tries to knee her attacker in his balls, but he leans out of the way, and grabs her in a full body grab, and tries to knock her feet out from under her. Rowena at this time, fires off a arrow, trying to hit the man holding Rebecca, and unfortunately, hits Rebecca, who falls asleep in the ruffians arms and they fall down to the ground. Seeing that she is unconsious, he decides to take some "liberties", but she is dreaming of Emelio, and believes that it is him "taking liberities".Shocked and a bit embarrased at missing, Rowena holds off on her second shot. Renee meanwhile turns to try and help Rebecca, but two men decide that three woman are a bit too tempting, while the other goes to see if the man with Rebecca "needs help", so they make to attack Renee and Rowena. Renee double parries one mans attack and is able to knock him down and out. Rowena recovers her sences and shoots the second arrow, into the man on Rebecca, knocking him out, at which, the second man decides it's his "turn" with Rebecca, who is still asleep dreaming. Renee turns in time to catch him with his pants halfway down, and is able to kick him off balance and into the dirt, where, seeing that the other men are out, the man gives up.Seig has had his hands full keeping the other two men occupied. Once he removes the ear of one, he is left with the leader, which he finally hits for a second time in the chest, causing a good wound, but still needs to tag him a couple of more times, shaving his beard off either cheek, before he knocks the man out with a final wound.Renee looks up from checking on Rebecca, and sees a man with grey hair moving away from a overhead porch, back into the building, as if he had been watching the fight, but she wasn't able to see more than that. Emelio comes running up, seeing Rebecca laying out on the street, and goes to pick her up, waking her in the process. She had been dreaming of him, and waking in his arms, knows nothing of what happened during the fight, and he takes her off to see a surgeon. Seig and the others also go to see a surgeon, bringing with them the men they had injured, and the tall man, who looked like he had a good sized "goose egg" on his forehead.The tall mans name was Issak Giessler, a merchant in antiques, who thanked Seig for his rescue, and informed Seig that the men were from a group calling themselves "Bedienstetgusse Soldaten", Wench Alley Soldiers, who were known as a bunch of ruff alley "protection" men, under the leadership of Wenzel Dirchs. But they were way off their normal territory, ruffing him up, in a respectible part of town, considering they usually worked in some of the uglier slum areas.They also got a bit of information from one of the attackers, but not much, because he said that their boss was crazy, and never gave them a reason for what he told them to do. That Wenzel Dirchs was their boss, and at Renee's question about what Dirchs looked liked, informed them that he had grey hair, confirmingn Renee's thoughts that she might have seen Dirchs at a distance earlier.There is still a day to wait before we can go get Emelio's sister, and Emelio spends it pampering Rebecca, whom is recovering from the fight.That is where we left off tonight.
