When Ravin told her that it seemed there were assassins after the Sheik as well, Isobel frowned. "Is it not more likely that these are the same assassins who are following us? Would a Jann assassin not use magic rather than more conventional means?" But she didn't have time to elaborate further, for suddenly Ravin shouted, "Vision!" and ran toward the tent where Justin stood guard over Alakbar.

Isobel hesitated only a moment before rushing after Ravin, her sword drawn once again. He must have seen someone in the tent! she thought as she ran toward the tent, her feet pounding on the ground.

Everything had happened so quickly that despite her rush she arrived only in time to see Justin drop to the ground before the tent flap. She leapt over his body - if he was dead there was nothing that could be done and if he wasn't then someone would soon be along to help. She caught sight of Ravin laying on the floor of the tent near where Alakbar had been sleeping and the slit in the back of the tent.

"Merde!" She hissed as she saw that Alakbar was gone. She hurried to look out the tent flap and just barely glimpsed movement behind some scrubby brush at the edge of camp. Snarling she closed the distance between herself and the intruder in a few quick strides, noting the blood trail behind him. She hoped the blood did not come from Alakbar. Within moments her sword was plunging into the assassin's back, but he twisted at the last moment and she ended up slicing his side open. The killer hurled some sort of weapon at her but he was apparently badly wounded, for it missed her, flying off to the left and hitting the ground. Quickly she sliced his throat with her sword, grinning at him. "You are dead, pig!" She hissed at him, and grabbed Alakbar, dragging him back toward the tent as the assassin lay bleeding his last.

She pulled Alakbar back into the tent, checking to make sure he was alive, then turned back to Ravin, noticing the knife sticking out of his chest. "Ay! Señor Ravin you are hurt!" She knelt beside him and tore a strip of cloth from one of the pillows, pressing it to the wound to try to stop the bleeding. She did not dare pull the knife out lest the wound bleed more heavily.

Taking Ravin's hand in hers, she looked down at him. "You will be fine, Ravin." Her firm gaze left no room for argument.

Isobel turned her face toward the tent flap and shouted, "Doctór Valhorek! Señor Ravin has been wounded! Hurry!"

*~*~*~*~*


Barry was floating along beside one of the Jann beauties making lewd remarks and causing her to blush when he caught sight of the new lady that was accompanying Ravin around the camp. "Helloooooo beautiful," he said to himself as he floated over to get a closer look.

Just as he arrived Isobel dragged Ravin off -- apparently for a little evening delight, from the look of it. Sheesh everybody was so horny all the time. What was wrong with people?

He floated up to the newcomer and clacked his teeth at her. "Helloooo there beautiful. How's about knockin' --" he was about to deliver his standard line when he noticed that the "woman" had no breasts to speak of. "Hoooooly.... yow!" Barry goggled at the genie. "Lady, you're a guy!" He said in some dismay.

Sudden shouting from one of the tents caught Barry's attention and he zipped over there quickly. Apparently Isobel and Ravin's little knee-knocking fest had turned ugly... she was shouting something about Ravin being hurt and he could see Justin laying on the ground. That didn't make much sense, so Barry floated upward over the tent and had a look around.

Isobel dashed out the back of the tent after someone and ... YIKES! She killed the poor sod... "That's a harsh way to deal with coitus interruptus!" Barry muttered.
