Outcasts RP

((Um .. . Perhaps make noises by throwing rocks or other noise makers in surrounding areas away from her to distract him))

"Here she is, Alexander." Vincent announced, carrying in an unconscious Gen and placed her down on the table.
"Lacie did well, but where is the one that goes by Alaric?" he asked, frowning.
"I-I don't know." Vincent said slowly and cautiously, wondering why he'd want this so called Alaric.

(sounds good lol sorry I can't think today)

Mercy picked up a rock and weighed it in her hand. I twas bog enough to make a noise, but not so big that it would sound purposeful. She hurled it into the woods to her left, and heard the quiet thud as it hit a tree.

Snake shook his head, facing the sound, "You're really bad at this, aren't you girl."

"Find me Alaric." Alexander ordered lowly.
Vincent wanted to question, but knew better of it and just nodded, "Of course, sir."

Mercy grinned to herself and picked up another rock. She looked around and found a leave-less tree. She started moving silently toward it and when she reached the base, she through the rock in the opposite direction. It made a slight rustle in the bushes, approximately where the other rock had landed.

"Are you even trying?" Snake laughed, "Seriously?"

Mercy hoisted herself up in the tree, careful not to let the edge of her dress brush against the trunk. She only climbed high enough so that she could make out Snake's head. He was looking in the direction of the rocks. Before she lost the advantage, she braced herself silently against the trunk and hurled the knife at Snake.

Snake grunted as the dull blade hit the back of his head, "Damn." Snake muttered, rubbing his head then smirked over at Mercy, "You did it."

"Thank you." Mercy said with a grin, climbing down from the tree and emerging from the woods.

"I could've done better if I tried." Alaric muttered.
"Idiot, you have to be trying, or you'll die." Snake said harshly, throwing the knife at him in frustration.

"Hey now." Mercy said with a frown "Careful."

Alaric kept his composure as he dodged it, "What's the next test?" Alaric asked flatly, not interested at all in this.

Mercy looked at him, concerned. He had to take this seriously.

Snake shook his head, but was too tired to scold, "We'll have to teach you how to attack from afar, with bows, throwing daggers, and so on."
"I can skip that, I already know how to use a bow." Alaric muttered, crossing his arms.

"Umm I don't" Mercy admitted. She'd been meaning to learn, but she'd never gotten around to it.

Alaric looked over at her and nodded, "Let me teach her, Snake."
Snake looked at him thoughtfully, "Bah, I'm not really good with ranged weapons anyways. But I'll keep my eye on you two."

"Alright." Mercy said with a nod.

Alaric watched as Snake walked a few feet away. He frowned at him for a moment before going to a stand that held sets of bows and arrows.
"Take one." he ordered.

Mercy removed a bow and a set of arrows from the stand as told. She bit back a smart-alec comment about Alaric's tone and waited for him to tell her what to do next.

He leaned next to her, helping her put the arrow into place. He took the moment to whisper into her ear, "We have to get out of here."

Mercy nodded her assent without speaking. "So like this?" she said, showing him her grip on the bow and arrow.

"Excellent." Alaric said, taking a step back, "Aim at the dummy." he said, pointing to the training object to the right.

Mercy raised the bow to eye level and aimed. It was sort of like a gun, except not. She kind of liked the more...elegant feel the bow had.

Alaric watched her ready herself. He crossed his arms, not paying much attention to her shooting, instead he continued to think of a way out.

Mercy pulled back the string slowly, feeling it pull back against her. It was a fairly strong string. She took a breathe in, checked her aim, then released the arrow with an exhale. It flew straight, but hit the dummy in the right arm.

Alaric looked over and nodded, "Good, like a natural." he said with a smile.
