Shadow touched his head and looked at the hand. It was bloody. He had a terrible headache. He stood up slowly and picked up his bow and arrow, wich he put back to the quiver. "Darn me if I have ever seen anyone move as fast as that," he gruntled. "And I believe I have seen the fastest mortals on earth. This guy wasn't exactly human now, was he?"

"Haven't a clue if he's even mortal anymore. He does have quite a brillant mind, and he has been locked in his lab ever since I brought him to my realm. Quess the only reason he came was to study and work on, something he didn't want me to know about, without dying of age," she looked towards the ground with a worried face. "He knows I'm weaker now, ever since that d**n Nerevarine destroyed the heart my life line has been sivered. Do not be so quick to judge him, its not his fault. He was raised in a clan of rogues, he was raised to be evil, he only thinks himself this, because thats what he was taught." "Anyway, we should get going. We need to catch up with him. Just after I pay a little visit to a friend of mine in Kogo 'Tel."
Yes, Kogo 'Tel is a real city. Its one of the Dres cities.

Shadow snorted. "You say you hate evil, and yet you walk with a vampire. How could I trust you? But that's not important," he added quickly. "I have no choice but to trust you. Listen, do we have a minute? I have to talk to you guys..."

Drakkas snarled and turned quickly, a blur to Shadow's eyes. He grabbed Shadow's throar and slammed him against the wall. "It is because of sniveling prats like you that we vampires have a bad name." he barked, his eyes staring murder into Shadow's. "We're not bad people. We just want to live out our lives peacefully."

Shadow looked into his eyes coldly and spoke as well as he could. "It's not people like me that make you a bad name, vampire. It's reactions like THIS." He pulled himself free and turned to Llen, rubbing his stiff neck. "As much as I hate to say that, I need your help, and the vampire's, to escape with my life. Because you see, there's a bunch of people called Decoys that mean to murder me. They have the magical ability to change their appearance similar to anybody they have had the slightest wiew of. You folks seem to have supernatural powers so I'm turning to you."

"First of all, I didn't say I hated evil," she said glancing back at Drakkas. "Second, I have my own problems with my brother right now. Third...well...your third on my list. I'll help you but after I get my brother. Can't say the same for vampire boy over here," she smiled at him concederatly.

"I thank you for not speaking for me." Drakkas said kindly, kissing Llen's cheek. Then he turned to Shadow, his eyes cold again. "Lucky for you, Llen has decided to help you. I will comply, but I won't make any promises that you will survive."

Shadow smiled at the vampire, but it was clear he didn't really wish him for his travel companion. "Very well," he said. "I've heard this before. It's not the first time someone threatens to kill me. Guild wars bring a lot of enemies... So I guess I'll help you as well as I can with your brother," he said to Llen. "To speed things up. Of course you will be payed if you help me. I don't expect you to do it all out of charity."

"Currency of any type is of little impoetance to me, glory is overrated, and that won't be much of a challenge," she sad brashly. "I seek no reward, I'm not a helper of the innocent, the only reason your coming along is to be the bait. Hehe."

Drakkas finally smiled an actual warm smile, though it was demented in a small way. "You read my mind..." His smile vanished. "And fortunately for you little man, I am kind enough to not care for your money. I will do it for free."

Shadow shook his head. These guys seriously have an attitude problem, he thought. But they will have to do. "I clearly cannot be of much assistance to someone as powerful as you," he said with a light bow directed to both of the Dunmer, "But I'll do as much as I can. Even if I can't help you with your brother, lady, it's a matter of honour to at least try. Anyway, as much as I hate to say that, for the sake of my own pathetic life it would be best if I stick close to you. I don't think I am able to fight more than one Decoy at once."

"Anyways," she said. "Where would he go anyway? I know this is something you would not know," she paused abrubtly. "I know where he is! Drakkan, remeber when we came through the portal in Vivec's Palace? He wasn't there, he was slain by Gingko, and since King Helseth is dead already, he is going to the other provinces and relieveing all of Tamriel an Anarchy. He will then try to force them to follow him. How do I know this? I'm his sister and actually caught his thoats in my home. I didn't put them all together before know."

"A great scheme." Drakkas said, staring off and thinking deeply. "Imagine what he could do with all that power...." He sheathed his blade and turned to Shadow. "Now, before we head off, how will we tell these Decoy's from you?"

"Let's put a tag on him." Llen suggested unseriously.

Shadow grunted. "Let's get going, enough of jokes made," he said. "But just so you wouldn't have any stupid ideas, if you put a tag on me, it will appear on the Decoy as soon as he sees one on me."
