Robin Hood and Much

Robin Hood walked silently over the bridge. His bow and quiver bouncing slightly on his back as he walked. His hood was up over his head. He was soaking wet from the pouring rain, giving him a bit of an ominous look. He stopped in the middle of the bridge and looked over the edge.

Much followed silently behind him. His pack in it's usal place on the strong wolf's back. He lay down next to Robin's feet, his snout resting on the edge, underneath the railing, and he peared into the fast flowing water below.

Ethan

Word was, Aralyn was missing. Ethan had no clue were the girl might be, but Ben had ordered him to start searching.

His first place was the usual gang hangout - Carver's Bridge. Pulling his truck to a stop, the man got out and began to stroll across span. He was surprised to see Robin Hood, and emidiately wondered if the other man knew anything of Aralyn. He doubted it, but maybe he had seen or heard of something suspicious recently.

Keeping his pistol holstered and hidden under his loose shirt, Ethan walked towards Robin. "Hey, can I ask you a question?"

Bonnie

Bonnie came riding up on her mule, her rifle slung over her shoulder and her dog faithfully at her side. "Ethan!" She called out. "What's going on?" It had become clear to her now. He lied to her. But she assumed that this lie was to protect her, so thought nothing of it.

Amber stared dominantly at Much. "What's up?" She asked, in a slightly arrogant tone. Sophia snorted at the hybrid. "Take it easy, Amber." The mule said.

Ethan

The man spun around with a start, dark eyes widened. "Bonnie-" No, it was too late to cover his tracks now. He couldn't outright lie again, but he'd be a bit creative in his explanation, "I didn't mean to decieve you... it's hard to explain..." Ethan trailed off, not sure just how much he could afford to tell her; especially in front of Robin Hood. "The truth is, my friend's daughter is missing, as well as afew other people. We're afraid they didn't leave on their own free will."

Bonnie

Bonnie closed her eyes and lowed her head. She stayed like this for a few moments, deep in thought. "I'm going to help you." She finally stated. "Whether you like it or not, I'm going to. I have to." She jumped off of Sophia's back and led her across the bridge to where Ethan was standing. "So what does this girl look like?" She asked.

Ethan

There was a mixture of dread and joy at her response. Dread for two reasons; one, he was sure Ben and Mikhail would be highly suspicious of a newcomer, and second, he was worried for her safety. "I guess I can't stop you." Ethan replied with a half grin, showing a perfect balance of the emotions he was feeling. After a heavy sigh, he went on to explain what Ben's 'daughter' looked like,"She's about 16, standing 5'6". Long raven-black hair, green eyes, and a pale complextion." Ethan paused a moment to look back at Robin Hood, but from what he knew of the man, he figured Robin didn't know anything about Aralyn's disapearance. "I don't know if you've met Charlene Moore before, but that's where Aralyn has been staying most of the time." Ethan went on to explain, "I suppose we can start there."

It was alot to give out all at once, but this was a matter of great urgency. "If you want to load her in the trailer, we can drive down to Charlene's house." He suggestioned, walking back towards his truck. It had been repaired since last fall, when Aralyn shot a hole in the radiator. And as usual, there was a horse trailer connected to the back; something Ethan had found quite handy in case he found a wild horse or any other animal to capture while he was out hunting.

Bonnie

Bonnie listened intently as Ethan spoke. She hadn't seen the girl anywhere, but she was sure that they would find her soon. After all, how hard could it be to find her? She led Sophia into the trailer, motioning for Amber to follow. Sophia was always good to have around. Where vehicles couldn't go, she could. She could go up a mountain much faster than a human. But neither Sophia or Bonnie bragged about it.
After the mule was loaded into the tralier, she walked back to where Ethan was standing. "I'm ready when you are." She said blankly.

Ethan

"It's a few miles from here." Ethan explained, as he went around the side of the truck to open the passenger door for Bonnie. He may be able to callously murder people at Ben's command, but chivalry was not dead for him. >[? Moving to the driver's side, he got in and started the truck up once more before heading south.

Bonnie

Bonnie smiled and got into the truck. Amber climbed over her and sat in the back.
