Selene was only half way listening. She was busy inspecting a strawberry gelding, she nodded in approval and paid the stable boy. She spoke as she inspected a cherry colored mare. "It's not that I'm tired, it's that I don't like slow pace." She looked at him. "I was hoping to get into Maple Town tonight if at all possible, besides, I asked and they said that Maple Town has the closest lodging. Will she work for you?" Without waiting for his response she finished paying the expenses, and began saddeling the gelding while the stable boy saddeled the mare.
"I trust you know how to ride."

Amara let the door slam shut behind her and followed closely behind Maxx. He seemed to know his way around this place. "Where'd you like to sit?" She asked in a childish voice. Amara didn't like the looks of these people. Most of them were skinny, scruffy with straggly hairs and dark circles underneath their eyes.

"Uuuuuuuh.....How bout a booth in the back?" Sweat started to drip down his forhead. He tried to wipe it away, so as Amara wouldnt notice anything.

"Sure." She said as she picked a booth next to the big bay window. A man dressed all in black too a long drag on his cig. "Is this alright?" She took a seat before he answered. A waitress came by and handed her two menus.

"Yeah, could i gat a wisky, on the rocks." he said to the waitress, as she was walks away. "So, what do you like to eat?" ha said, tring to make small talk. Maxx kept on looking over his shoulder, twards the frond door. The sweat kept roling down his forhead.

Selene climbed into the saddle, gathering the reins in secretly expert hands. She glanced at him with a sly smile. "I'll show you how frail I can be, within an hour we'll be in Maple Town. I hope you can keep up!" She urged the gelding into a full on gallop. Leaving Ivan in a could of dust, or at least it seemed that way.

Amara flipped through the menu, nothing looked good. "A soda and ....." She trailed off. "I don't know. I don't see anything I like." The man behind let a puff of smoke out and took a sip of his drink. "Try the chicken." He answered. Amara sighed, its always the damn chicken.

"I'd go with the pasta, they have really good pasta here. Thats what im getting." Maxx finaly stoped looking around, and look to Amara. It was then he saw the man in black, Maxxes eyes widened.

OOC: This is totally random, doesn't count! But it's funny. All because you said the man in black.
Just then bell above the door rang, Amara didn't see anyone. A little pug entered and sat in front of the table. "What do you want, Frank?" The man sighed and put his drink down. She looked at the little dog. "hey sweet thang! Whats shakin?"

Maxx looked at the dog, his eyes seemed widen even more. "Um, Amara, maybe we should go somewhere else to eat." Maxx stood up from the booth. Like back in the bar, he was griping his swords tightly. "Now, plz"

OOC: I know I'm posting without Andrew, it's not because I don't love'im 'cause I do. I'm impatient.
It seemed like Selene had lost Ivan. Good, he was slowing her down anyway, she needed to find these people, somehow she knew that they were tied to her. She urged the horse on, and before too long, she was entering Maple Town.
Selene brought the horse to a trot, and eventually to a stop. She looked around the vacant streets for some minutes. She could smell them, they were near. Good.
Hearing her stomach voicing it's dislike of being empty, Selene decided that she should trying and find them after a healthy meal. It didn't seem likely that they would leave the town, espically this late at night. Seeing an Inn not too far she clucked the horse forward.
Leaving the gelding with a stable boy she made her way inside. There was a distinct smell of cigarette smoke, but it would fade. Making her way to a back booth she sat down and took of her cloak for the first time that night. She was pale from shoulder to finger tip. It was apparent that she was fit, but she was almost too skinny for the rest of her body.
A waiter came by, handing her a menu. "Beer." She said, then flipped the menu open.

"Whats wrong with this place?" She placed the menu down and looked Maxx in the eye. Amara leaned in close and whispered "Is the guy in black giving you dirty looks or does the mutt bother you?"
"I heard that!" Frank huffed.
She was still leaning over the table, waiting for Maxx to anwser. Maybe he didn't like dogs, either way she really didn't care. Her vision started to blur again and the headache came rolling back like a thunderstorm.

"Im just getting a bad vib from this place thats all, so can we plz leave?" He looked down at her, he could tell she was in some sort of pain. He sat back down, "She doesnt need this right now." he thought to himself. "Are you ok?" as he reached his hand out to touch her's.

Amara moved her hand back. "Fine." She stated in plain voice. She moved her hands back under the table and placed them on her lap. "Where'd you like to go?" She asked. The headache grew stronger and stronger with each passing minute. "I hope I don't pass out." She said to herself. The Inn started to warm up as people cheered over the game and talked to everyone who was around them. In Amara's mind, it was a cheerful place and she wanted out.
