Mayumi closed her eyes and just focused on the two mens conversation. What are they hideing? she wondered.

::As soon as Mayumi began to cast the conversation between the two men ceased with an unnoticable gesture by Warren. The wards he had set around himself were ringing in his head, telling him someone nearby was delving into the arcane arts. The triggers quickly pointed him in her direction. He looked at her for a brief moment to find out it was a spell from the school of mysticism. Concentrating only a bit longer revealed the nature of her spell. Warren's mouth curved into a smirk, he could probably continue along this path and counter the spell, but that would likely blow out her ear drums. There was no need for that of course. Not being one for subtle lies he spoke in a whisper once again to Mortemus.:: We have a little eavesdropper in our midst. Do you think we should kill her?
::Mortemus watched Warren as he identified the spell, he had never really understood mages or what they ever seemed to be doing. What he did understand was that they held a great power that should never be underestimated. As Warren began speaking to him again his mouth curved into a demonic smile.:: Perhaps we should. My spear has not had fresh blood in a while...nor has Ragnos for that matter and she seems to get cranky when she doesn't eat. Not to mention she seems to have slimmed down since last I saw her...
::Eastwood grew less and less comfortable with situation at hand. He had never been the greatest pal in thw world when it came to Warren and he absolutley hated the person he had entered the bar with. He saw the young girl casting a spell and raised an eyebrow. It would be foolish to cast in the presence of Warren, any spell at all. Of course she was probably either ignorant of the arcane arts or was ignorant of the fact that Warren had mastered them. Something else caught his attention, her odd choice at a verbal component for her spell. If he remembered correctly all such words did was help focus the mind on the spell at hand, which is why higher level mages usually removed such a step from their casting. His hand balled up into a fist, this was going to be bad...really bad.::

David's attention turned back to the two men. They stopped talking for a just a moment, then continued whispering, only this time it was just slightly louder then before. He managed to pick up a few words: '...little.......midst......kill her.' Then from the other man. 'Perhaps....spear.........' Did he just say something like Rainos or Ragnos? David couldn't tell.
Finally, starting to get sick of the people in the bar looking over at the two men rather nervously and the bar being a little more quiet then before as people tried to hear what they were saying, David finally had to say something. "Can I eat your spear?" He randomly blurted that out as he remembered how hungry he was.
Of course the man probably wouldn't give him his spear. David wasn't really thinking when he said that. When David got hungry, he tended not to pay much attention to things around him much.
He realized what he said though and scratched his head. "Never mind, just hungry, that's all. Sorry about that."
Of course! Didn't he still have those keys to the hotel's parking area that the manager had handed him? Maybe he could eat those. It's not like he had a car anymore anyway. He reached into his pocket. Instead of the keys, he found a hole, however indicating that they had fallen out. Damnit... Oh well, something like that was going to happen sooner or later. At least he hadn't been attacked by rabid squirels or something.

((I must point out that the conversation was out of earshot from you. I.e. whispered between them. The only person who should be able to hear it is Mayumi))

((o.o >.< oops, my bad. i didn't see the part in your post that they whispered to each other at first.
still, if it's loud enough for mayumi to hear (as in it's not as quiet as before) david should be able to hear at least some small parts of it. i'll slightly edit my post though))

Mayumi did not like any of the men, other than the dumb bartender, he seemed... well non blood thirsty. She narrrowed her gaze at the table. she stayed careful to not show emotion to the situation at hand. She knew only what she learned from her experiances, and though that be a lot, it shallowed in comparison to one of the men. She focused harder.
Just as david had said something totally idiotic Kai had entered the bar. He sensed the tension and sat next to Mayumi, showing that he was her gratest form of protection against anyone. Kai fingered the switch blades at his belt. He looked at the two men talking at the bar. She must be honing in on their conversation. he thought. he pushed his purple hair out of his face. This better not go bad. he thought.

Of course even though people couldn't hear what they were saying, they could feel the tension slowly starting to build. By now almost everyone was holding their breaths as they waited to see what would happen next...  Just then the door slammed open, causing some people to jump. "Heeeelo, people!!" Katrina busted through the door.
Everyone shot glares over at her or just simply stared at her, not believing what they had just seen her do.
Katrina flinched under their stares. "What'd I do?"The same thing you always do: make some huge entrance and attract too much attention.Shut up, Sayo... Katrina walked into the bar, not looking at anyone staring at her. She walked up to the bartender. "Can you get me a glass of water, please?"

((I'm going to point out Mayumi has that enhanced hearing spell on as well. In fact that is the only reason their conversation is being heard...for now))
::With but a wave of his hand Warren snapped Mayumi's weave. Not countering it as he would have done since, well...that would have caused a severe injury. This would just get rid of her bothersome spell. Though now he spoke to Mortemus in a tone that was about normal, one that probably everyone in the bar could hear:: So I say we go in 50-50. What you do with your half of the money is your own business. Of course we would need to set money down for expenses that way we could keep things up. If anything people would kill for the chance to have a dance club around here. I know I would personally spend my fair share on hunters. That way they could track down artifacts for me...I do enjoy tinkering with the magics of old.
::Mortemus grin slowly became just a small smirk, he seemed to ponder over what Warren had told him:: True. I personally was never one for such place...though others seem to enjoy them. I was too wrapped up in my duty to King and country as his lead Dragoon.
::Eastwood hurried to get the drink of water for the person who had just entered. As he did he breathed a sigh of relief, thanking god that Mayumi had not been killed just then...or worse. He knew Warren had never liked his private affairs interrupted...and that he also had a flair for torture. The other man he knew would not hesitate to drive a spear through her with less than a moments notice. This was getting tense and it was driving him mad. He knew he would have trouble if a fight broke out. Warren gave him enough trouble but this other person...he stood no chance against the two of them. His thoughts traveled to Warren's words. A dance club...just what was he up to?::

Maumi hit the table with her hands. "Damnit!" she walked out of the bar and to the court yard in a hurry of anger.
Kai smiled. at least it didn't get bad.

 Katrina watched as the bartender got her drink. "A dance club sounds nice..."You do know they're up to something, right?No, duh. I felt that strange aura along with you as I came in. Still, there's no need to cause useless panic in here. Just go along with whatever they say to avoid any trouble. Wouldn't want to destroy the bar now, would we?
There was a pause. Normally...I wouldn't really care, nor get involved with any of this. Besides, I'm stuck in your body so I can't really do anything. But....when given the option...and if I was able to fight..... Mentally, Katrina could feel her give a shrug after a long pause. Take the time to contemplate...it's not mine.Katrina didn't give her a response to that. Though everyone else could see her visibly. She frowned and her once cheerful and happy face suddenly darkened. Of course, if you could have heard that small conversation, the whole 'it's not mine' line wouldn't have made too much sense to you. Then again, Katrina was the only person who knew anything about Sayo. Sometimes, you needed to look past the obvious meaning things and dig deeper.

David jumped a little as Mayumi slammed her fist down on the table then stormed out of the bar. Wonder what that was about... "Mayumi!" He tried calling her but apparently she had already walked out the door.
He looked over at Kai. "What happened?"
He could take a guess. She could have somehow failed in trying to listen in on their conversation and got mad. That was a possible reason.

"That's what happens when she losess control over some magical situation, she gets pissed." Kai said as he kicked back in his chair.

"Oh..." I guess her spell broke somehow.
He looked over at the two men again sitting by the bar. David noticed the girl from before (Katrina) who had once been all cheerful. Now her face seemed so dark and sinister. Perhaps she could sense the strange aura too.
He stood up. "I guess I'll go check to see if she's okay." He started forward but stopped. Oh wait...I don't know where she went.... He sat back down again. "You wouldn't happen to know where she went do you?"

David was a little surprised by how Kai knew that. He was her brother though. "Okay, if you say so."
He got up and walked out of the bar, not looking at the two men as he left.{exit}
