Pathfinder: The Vampires Revenge

All good things...

Jamada

Once I retrieved my box and Bukka put away his 'payment' we continued our tour through the city, even though it was already sundown.

Bukka took us all over the city, or at least to the places we haven't been to. We returned to talking again, which we both enjoyed, and began tell a little about ourselves. It felt like we talked for hours, but stopped when he heard something that made us stop. I ran over to the corner of a building and looked into the street and saw two guards talking to human merchant selling cloths. I listen to their conversation and heard the guards ask if he heard or saw an explosion and if he saw anyone walk away from the area.

"The guards are looking for the ones that caused the explosion." I said. "Thankfully, they don't know it was us."

"Then perhaps we should stay hidden, at least a while longer." Venom said. "Being monster we tend to get the blame a lot."

"Bukka know good place to hide, yes." Bukka said. We followed him through winding alleyway until we found an old, abandoned three story building. We walked in and found the place covered in dust and parts of the walls were cracked or missing pieces.

"This will be good place to hide." Bukka said.

"Does anyone one know about this?" I asked.

"A few. The guards know but don't bother to come here." He said.

"So how long do you think we will need to stay here?" I asked.

"A few hours perhaps." He said. "So, what shall we do to pass the time?"

I smiled."I think I know." I said as I reacted into my pocket to pull out the black box.

"Halt." I heard a stern voice say. I looked in front of me and saw two guards walk through the front door towards us.

Desna weeps. I think

"Uh yes." Bukka said walking up to them. "How may we help."

The guards walk past him and walk up to me.

"Kobold." The guard on the right said. "Their was am explosion about an hour ago near the market. You wouldn't know anything about it would you?" He said narrowing his eyes.

"No." I said.

"But your are brass, and If I'm not mistaken brass kobolds breath fire." The guard said.

I stared to get nervous and looked behind the guards and notice Bukka pull out a dagger and Rattle and Venom hand their arms up ready to cast a spell. 

"Actually." I said. "I'm bronze."

The guards raised their eyebrows and looked at me. Bukka, Rattle, and Venom looked at me as well with confused faces.

"But your brass." One said.

"Our scales change based on our temperature. Our real colors reveal when warm, but darken when cold. I simply look brass, but I'm really bronze." I said. The guards looked at each other then back to me and nodded.

"Remind me to get another book on kobolds." I heard the left guard whisper.

"So you know nothing of the explosion?" The right one asked.

"I do." I lied. "But sadly I saw no one."

Bukka, Rattle and Venom nodded with approval and relaxed.

"Forgive us." The guard said. "It has just been stressful. I hope you take no offense."

"None taken " I said bowing.
