Amarant glanced back behind him... Only to discover that the young bounty-hunter was following him... But not only just following, he was catching up! One could not exaggerate how fast these two were moving across the tops of buildings. From the perspective of the common-man, Amarant and Ramza were nothing but a pair of blue and red blurs hopping bouncing rapidly across the thin, tiled roof-tops of Lindblum, the pair barely staying long enough to leave even the scuff of their boots upon the roofing!
To them... or to Amarant at least, it was just another man who could match his speed, a very rare sight in this world for someone to do so! The Red-headed man had thought he'd lose him on his way to the tram-system... but it seemed that wasn't going to be much of an option anymore. He stared silently as Ramza ran beside him as the blonde vowed he would follow him to the ends of the earth...
...Lets see how well he keeps that promise...
Suddenly, Amarant broke their beeline for the tram, actually springing BACK in a swift back-flip into the ally-streets below, aiming to throw off the boy by this sudden change in direction! He rushed down the narrow concrete path in the opposite direction they had been going previously, doubling back to the market-plaza from which they had come in the first place! It was here he had to slow down lest he actually end up hurting someone as he ran along with the movement of the crowd, aiming to shroud himself somewhat among the people that moved towards the shops.
This time, Amarant was cutting through the market if only to find a different Tram, one that lead up to Lindblum castle... But if the boy was able to keep following him, he wouldn't have the luxury of waiting for that slow metal box to lumber it's way down to him!

Location: Lindblum - Gaia Mood: Determined Status: Well It seemed Amarant wanted to test Ramza's determination. The Knight was indeed caught by surprise by the bandit's maneauver; if Ramza needed to decelerate and turn around, he would have completely lost his target. Fortunately, his Rush skill was very flexible; he Rushed backwards, instantly inverting his vector of mommentum. The young knight felt his innards tugging under the force of inertia, but such was the price of nimble movement.
He turned, and caught a glimpse of Amarant vanishing into the crowd. Trying to run after him amidst the sea of people was a losing effort; instead, Ramza Rushed upwards, using his skill to get to the nearest building's ceiling. From there, he surveyed the area, looking for Amarant.
Lindblum was a sight to behold, of diverse, very diverse people, of all shapes, sizes, and races. People that barely qualified as "people". But even in such a wild crowd, Amarant's flaming hair stood out.
As he watched, Ramza saw another hint of the man's true character: even in the midst of a frenzied chase, he was being mindful of the people around him. It would be easy for the Bandit King, with his hulking frame, to knock everyone in his path and beeline with maximum efficiency to whatever his destination was. But he didn't do that. He slowed down. And that told something about himself, even if the Bandit wasn't aware of it.
For now, Ramza made sure to keep his eyes on him, and watch where he was going. He seemed to be going for one of the Trams - those weird metal boxes that seemed to move by their own, spooky things. Ramza observed; if he boarded the train, Ramza would rush to it, still in the air, and land on top of the Tram, hitching a ride on the ceiling. @amarant |
