[i]One Paint soon settles on one building, motioning for the other one to follow. She does, and the two enter the building, and don't come out.[/i]

*He just continues watching.*

[i]They don't come out for the rest of the night, having found a hotel to stay at.[/i]
-
*He stays up all night, the grizzly bear cub asleep in his lap.*

Edited by NOTAPUBLICALT: 9/11/2016 12:23:53 PM[i]At the dawn of the next morning, only one Paint walks out, stretching, and yawning in the comfortable morning temperature. The sun was only just over the horizon, tinting the sky an orange color.[/i]
-
*He looks around, no one else is up. He quickly gets up and steps out from the bushes, holding the cub.* [u][b]H-Hey![/b][/u]
-
[i]Turning her head, Paint sighed, well rested and calm. Taking a deep breath, she decided to stay and wait for whatever the creature had to say, before continuing on her way.[/i]
-
*He approaches her.* [u][b]W-Why are you here? What are y-you doing? Why d-did you run away? Why w-were you c-crying? Why did you t-try to kill h-him?[/b][/u] *When he asks that last question, he holds out the cub a little. The cub is clearly terrified of her and Vorim holds him close again.

[i]After a moment of thinking, Paint finally answers.[/i] "What I'm doing here's none of your business. Why I ran away, well, I was tired and wanted sleep. Why I tried to kill the cub, again, is none of your business." [i]She draws the cloak over her head once more, pulling up her mask, so only her eyes and forehead were seen. Grabbing the white orb from her left pocket, the garage door reappeared, opening up. Walking inside, she revved the motorcycle, which was now completely jet black, and had somehow appeared back inside the garage. Paint drove out slowly, and when she left the garage it closed and disappeared.[/i] "If that's all, I'll be off." [i]She said, a distant look in her dark gray eyes.[/i]
-
[u][b]I-I think it is m-my business. And where a-are you going?[/b][/u]
-
[i]Paint was silent for a full minute. Finally, she replied, her voice muffled by the mask.[/i] "... I'm not sure where I'm going," [i]She said, sighing as she watched the sun rise.[/i] "But I have a goal in mind."
-
[u][b]What i-is it?[/b][/u]

Edited by NOTAPUBLICALT: 9/11/2016 12:51:50 PM[i]Paint turned to look at Vorim, determination in her stormy, gunmetal gray eyes.[/i] "If somebody you knew were to murder somebody you loved in cold blood," [i]She began.[/i] "Would you not want them dead?"
-
*He nods.*
-
"I want somebody dead," [i]She sighed, turning away from Vorim.[/i] "If that person still lives, I can't rest." [i]Paint shrugged, smiling.[/i]
-
[u][b]F-Fine. But don't k-kill babies. Whe you do k-kill them, the Dojo c-could use a-another member.[/b][/u] *He motions to a huge structure at the top of the mountain.*
-
"... I'll join now," [i]She said, having no other place to go.[/i] "But won't be around much. That cool?"
-
[u][b]O-Okay.[/b][/u]
-
[i]Paint turned, revving the motorcycle, and sped off at three hundred miles per hour towards the dojo, the wind blowing her hood back and her hair and cloak billowing behind her.[/i]
-
*Vorim watches as she approaches the stairs, getting ready to see her crash her motorcycle.*
