The Wave Warriors moved quickly, the terrain well known to them, even in the dark. They feared no monsters in the dark, and their pursuit was relentless. The thing they were chasing had murdered a Samurai Lord, and there would be no respite. The barking of dogs could be heard too, as they scented on the unfamiliar figure. The few riders on horseback present moved along the roads, using superior speed to get ahead, and begin to close in the net on Jay

Clothes and Equipment: Shirai's armor and weaponry is nearly identical to that of a Wave Warrior officer, save for the runes emblazoned on it that blaspheme all those who deal with sorcery, promising death to each of them in turn.

Shirai felt the magic recede, and determined not to let the other half of his quarry get away, he followed the faint trail of magic he could feel. In such a magic-less city as Quying, this task was incredibly easy, and he slowly began to gain ground as he pursued the Cat relentlessly, content to allow the Wave Warriors to go after the non-magical being he had fought earlier.

Jay ran and ran, though he paced himself. He knew the name of the game when it came to outrunning tracking dogs, whose faint barks he could hear from behind. He would stick to the woods as he continued to run for his life, as if he was caught he would surely be killed. He had the endurance of a regular human male who was in good shape, so he figured he could run long enough to tire out the dogs, and then they would have no way of tracking him through those dark woods...

The dogs kept his scent, and they were also in good shape, soon enough the woods would run out, and then Jay would be on the roads, and in plain sight of the cavalry that was even now spreading out onto the roads outside the City. The dogs were very slowly beginning to gain on the cat-person, and judging by the barking they were hounds of some sort.
OOC: A lot. You killed a Samurai Lord and ran from one of the Daimyo's personal guard.

Shirai continued to chase her through the darkened, but awakening, city. Several people were shoved aside, the Witch Slayer single-mindedly pursuing his quarry heedless of who he knocked over in the process.

Jay ran and ran through the woods, the dogs seemed to be gaining on him, but he at least had a bit of a headstart. They wouldn't catch up to him just yet. The woods ended eventually though, giving way to an open road. That was not good for Jay and his attempt to avoid being captured and killed. He would cross the road into the wilderness on the other side and continue on his way.
He was slower than the dogs were in a full on sprint, but he hoped he could outpace them over a longer distance. He didn't know if he had enough of a headstart to do that, though. He would quicken his pace a bit.
ooc: So are you just gonna kill me if you catch me?

As Jay crossed the road, he was spotted by the cavalry that waiting for him, and they charged, managing to reach him before he made it all the way across. The closest one swung a sword for his head, but it would be a few moments before the others caught up, Jay would have to act fast...

Shirai - Witch SlayerThe Cat felt the beginning stir of panic in her chest, but she swallowed it down. She ran nimbly and ably, faster, quicker than any human -- even the heavily trained one. She had uncanny balance and unbelievable flexibility, much like, well, a cat, and was able to easily make her way around obstacles. She felt, however, that her time in Quying was done. What had she to stay for anymore? Her father was dead, her brother belonged to the Daimyo... she had only her sister, Miyuri, who would be looked after by her other sister, Kayako, and Kayako's husband. Feeling a constriction on her heart, she suddenly changed direction, veering off to head back to the city wall... ... intent on escaping into greater Tawakoshi.

Shirai honed right into her change in direction, and before long she would be face to face with the Witch-Slayer. A fire was lit in his eyes, a burning hatred that would allow for only enough mercy to see the Cat executed at the mercy of the Court for her crimes, rather than here on the street in Quying.

She came to a sudden stop, her heart racing in her chest. Her tail was flicking behind her, her ears flattened to her head. Her hands were splayed wide -- she had no blade upon her.
"You're after the wrong person," the Cat said vehemently to the Witch Slayer, his eyes burning at her and irritating the spirit of the Cat that lived within Masami's chest. "You're letting the murderer get away, you idiot." There was still more than melee space between Shirai and the Cat.

"You think me foolish enough to believe you, witch. With your foul sorcery you have trespassed into the very home of the Daimyo, and if that weren't enough, you have slain one of his Lords. Such crimes result in death, but first the Daimyo wishes to know how you did it."
The anger in him lingered in the air between them, his entire body tense and ready to spring the moment the Cat made any motion whatsoever.

"I think you're stupid for letting a murderer get away," the Cat snapped fiercely, taking a step back. She couldn't look away from Shirai, but with her peripheral vision she could almost gauge the rooftops and other distances, her sharp ears twitching as she picked up noises in the burning night. "There will be nothing for me to tell the Daimyo, because I didn't do it." Another step back.

"Let me guess, it was your accomplice who did it? He will have been caught by now, indeed even now the bells along the wall announce his capture." And he was right, the bells did peal out a sound, one that signalled the murderer's capture.
"And now it is just you and me Cat . Do you surrender yourself or wish to fight it out?" Her step backward was met with his step forward, as would any move she made. In his presence, her supernatural abilities would seem a bit...dampened, and that he was damn near as quick as she was.

The bells made her ears twitch, and a sudden vicious thought traced her mind. There was a possibility that she'd be shackled and jailed with her father's murderer. And then, of course, she could kill him.
The Cat suddenly stood straight, her body language easy and fluid, and she held out her hands, palms up. The Cat walked toward him, a saucy sway to her hips.
"Tie me up how ever you like," she teased him, suddenly very cooperative. Twice she'd made the Daimyo's samurai fall over themselves to capture her when she'd infiltrated (and escaped) the palace...
... But now, she freely offered herself.

If anything, her teasing tone put him more on edge, as did the sudden surrender. The witch had attempted a similar trick on him, but he had not fallen for it.

The Cat of Quying smirked, but instead of answering him, she held up her hands and wiggled her fingers so he would see, then turned around and put her hands behind her back, her long cat-tail twitching. She waited patiently for Shirai to come up to her, not at all afraid that he might kill her.
He was one of the Daimyo's twelve, and the Daimyo had just agreed to marry a witch. How was that going to play out for Shirai, she wondered?

Shirai quickly placed the manacles on her hands, keeping them pinned to her back, rather uncomfortably for a normal person at least, the entire time. When he was done he picked her up near effortlessly with a single hand, pushing her towards the Fort, and the jail within.
He mistrusted the Daimyo's new bride, but was satisfied that the Daimyo was not being magically influenced. Shirai, while he hated magic, was well aware that not all magic was bad, and indeed he trusted the Wavewarden, knowing full well that her power was magical, and she vouched for the Lady Asherah, and if the deity he worshipped and the Daimyo he was oathbound to trusted her, he could raise no argument.

Jay cursed to himself, he didn't expect the city's response to be this organized and this fast amidst the chaos of discovering their murdered lord. He would throw the dagger on the ground, as he was surrounded. He didn't know if they would kill him right then and there or accept his surrender, but he felt his chances of surviving were much better that way.

He was not gentle with her. The sound and feeling of the shackles coming around her wrists made her uncomfortable, it made her uneasy. It made her irritable, but instead she smirked and glanced over her shoulder, her jade eyes glowing brightly from behind her cat mask.
"Mm, so rough," the Cat teased the Witch-Slayer, and then was shoved forward to walk. She easily kept her balance. Indeed, the way she was able to keep her balance was most definitely unnatural. There were rumors around the city that she could balance on a pin-top. They were probably true.
She was pushed through the streets toward the jail and could only hope she'd meet up with her father's killer inside. No one else deserved to kill him but herself.
