He was not worried about being detected, he was high up and had been sitting in the same position for the several hours. "I swear to fraking god if this bastard don't show his face soon my leg will go numb and have to be amputated" wiking thought, scanning the entrance to a brothel some 500m away. Since arriving in the city 5 days ago he have had one mission, hunt down former captain turned bandit Ingvar Charlsted and bring him in on 5 accounts of unjust murder, and untold accounts of robbery. Ingvar was wanted, but wiking could not wait for the local police to handle it, it was a matter of upholding the honor of a military. plus the money from the bounty on his head would be a nice boost to Wiking treasury.
Suddenly the door to the brothel opened and wiking adjusted his sight "Come on out you little.." wiking quietly mumbled, hardly moving his lips. one man exited, then another. None of them Ingvar, then a third man exited and looked around. Seeamily pleased with himself, It was Ingvar. Wiking adjusted his sights one last time and started to mutter "Return to the void, where you will face divine judgment... Exterminate!". wiking pressed the trigger, a small sound indicated that the round had been fired. 0.3 seconds later there came a small flash from the rifle. this was not a gunshot, but the built in scope camera taking a picture. Showing Ingvars surprised expression, a hole in the center of his forehead showing that the shot was on target. Wiking chambered a new bullet, still not removing his eyes from the scope. In case he needed another bullet to finish the job. But ingvar was dead before he hit the ground. Wiking rose from his position and started to walk away towards his flyer.
2 Hours later,
Wiking entered the police station, he had left all his weapons in the flyer outside. the only officer inside the station was a rather depressed looking reptile, wiking walked up to him and said "Excuse me sir, But could you be so kind and redirect me to an officer who can help me with bounty collection?"

Aaron was alone with the chief that day. Everybody else was assigned interesting jobs while Aaron was stuck in the station doing paperwork and clerical duties on mundane minutia, which he passionately hated. Seeing Wikes come in, he gazed to him, hopefully.
Responding to him, he simply stated, "I am he."

Saleon wrote:"ok," he said, feeling relieved, "I think he didn't notice me. So... what are you all in here for?" He looks around mostly at the lady mage. Before he can let her talk he remarks to a guard, "hey, got a smoke?" He notices he might've interrupted her and quickly apologizes, "sorry, haven't got over this habit. It might be bad for me but at how long I got... I don't think it matters anymore," and motions for her to speak.

Saleon wrote:"Yeah I always hated this town," he retorted, "it's too much of a mix of actually good cops and, well, stupendously bad cops." He finally gets his hands on a cigar, and says, "I should've asked before but you mind if I smoke?"

"Very well, I wish to collect the bounty of Ingvar Charlsted, if you want the corpse the address is written on the back of the photo" wiking said, handing him the photo taken by the scope camera, on its backside the address of the brothel was written
Kerzacistan wrote:Armor on, sword at his side, Blood Banks full, Einrich walked out into the streets with the intent of visiting the local Constabulary. Walking into the building and noting the citizen and Aaron in the middle of a conversation, standing to the side of the desk and awaiting the full attention he needed. Einrich fingered his blade anxiously before blurting out "Aaron we might have a problem that needs discussing, urgently."
Saleon wrote:Fortunado quickly peers out to see who is speaking. After looking he recognizes the bounty hunter in question. "oh frick it's that dang bounty hunter," he mumbles, hoping not to be noticed in the cell. He turns silent to not draw attention from him.
Castle Crashers wrote:As Naomi walked, she opened her portable spell book, flipping through the pages and reading as she walked. She nearly bumped into more then seven people as she walked, but continued anyways. After a ways of walking, someone called out "Hey!"
Naomi briefly lifted her head out of the book, looking around.
"Hey you!" The voice called again, and Naomi turned to see a policeman running after her, baton raised. Startled by the movement, Naomi began running away from the man, dodging in and out of crowds of people. Why is he chasing me!? Naomi thought wildly as she ran, cutting sharply in-between various individuals. She could still hear him calling, and she turned around briefly to see how far he was away. As she did so, she ran smack-dab into someones wagon, and fell backwards, dazed. She blinked and groaned, a headache forming. As she looked up, she saw the over-weight policeman looking down at her, a grimace on his face. "You're under arrest for carrying...this." He said, swiping the spell-book from her hands.
"Wha...but I...It was legal...just a week...ago..." Naomi struggled to say, the breath still knocked out of her from the impact.
"Newsflash darling. Stay up with the news." He said, lifting her off the ground and cuffing her hands behind her back.
He walked her into the police station, shoving her into one of the holding cells rather roughly. She sighed, frustration clearly showing on her face. Too bad she didn't know a spell to teleport. Yet.

Wiking looked at the reptilia as he bashed his fist into the desk "Officer, may i be of assistance. I am former military, i might be able to help you make sense out of whatever is troubling you" he said, watching as a young girl was placed in a cell "She looks to clean and well dressed to have done something illegal" wiking thought to himself

Taking a piece of broken armor and laying it on the desk, its obvious something violently shattered it.

Pointing at his chest with a thumb and saying "I've been ordered to find the source of these killings and end it. How am I supposed to kill something that rips through our armor like it was paper?" Shaking his head and continuing "That's not even the weirdest part, there's no magical residue on any of the pieces. Infact we cant even use scrying spells on it, any magic it comes in contact with sputters and usually fails. And my father was the one who tried to scry it, and he lost a simple spell like that!" Gesturing to the armor and saying "If the King's Wizard can't do it, I doubt anyone can. I guess this remains a mystery, but they told me I could take anyone I felt would help on this assignment." Einrich gives Aaron a worried looks and says "Except Blood Knights, they don't want to risk anymore of them. So will you come with me? I know its on short notice but there's no time to spare."

During their conversation, a small courier comes over to the station with a variety of documents. Fortunado perked up as the guards began whispering in the distance. He grabbed the cigar from his mouth and fizzed out the live cigar on the cold hard cement of the floor. He stood up and wiped the dust off of his pants and waits...The Tophat Empire wrote:Qwanch wrote:
