Cold, quiet, dim glowing, this is what could easily describe the large city of Balefire. The city was magnificent in it's own way to those with the liking of very dark and lightly lit areas. The city was for those with simple purposes of life and others for thievery, killing, and corruption. Though very few called it home the city was there for others with a passion for death. After all the daytime never saw light and one could get away with killing easily even with the annoying guards. The lanterns were what gave off this light glow from the distances. In other parts of the world those who see it from the distances call it "The city of lanterns." The dark sky never let up and nor did the lanterns. The dim glow never died down and it seemed as just before they were ready to give up they sprung to life once more.

Vampires were most common in such a city. It was almost perfect, shadows, and most of all dark alley ways. The guards seemed to be having trouble lately with such incidents. Corpses stacked high on boxes in random alley ways. The event had been going on for sometime and this killing was a deed from a vampire. The teeth marks upon each of the victims necks were fairly deep. The teeth sank in just right each time like a blade severing the skin with a light burn. Although the killings were taken place at odd hours of the day the vampire hadn't been seen once. He was quick and clever. It seemed as though such a vampire was capable of things beyond a normal vampire. Of course that couldn't be the case considering only mere humans eyes would think such things in such a dark and shadowy city.

The wind was easily slicing through the air as the orange and yellow leaves of fall came floating down to the ground as the cold chills followed in the wind reminding the people as well as the creatures of the dark that winter was coming. It was almost the end of fall and the leaves on each tree in the distant marshes were almost bare. The cold chill slid through every alley way and with a quick and easily slither slammed into a tall fully black clothed figure perched a top a cliff over looking the city. His skin was pale and his eyes were of a midnight blue. The only skin that showed was his face and his strong hands. The creases in his hands showed years of work and labor and possibly battles. His black clothing consisted of his under shirt and a black tank top beneath that of his shirt. Lightly stitched to his back there was a sheathe with symbols running down to a long blades handle. Underneath his blade rested his black cloak which hide all other weapons and his stature. Kneeling as he perched his head down at the fading lanterns below his Silver hair dropped from his hood as it lingered over the cliffs edge.

His eyes stared into the city as the silent city began to fill itself with the late night tavern drinkers. They were loud and obnoxiously they ruined the silent rest of the dark night. The distant howls from the forest began to fill the air and then with a quick movement of wind the pale figure stood as he watched three men come out of the tavern screaming as if there were a monster in front of him. Ironicly that wasn't the case, yet. The figure watched the three men easily as one stumbled to the ground and fell asleep. Looking to the left of his eye a guard was patrolling approximately 123ft away at a local trademark statue. The the right of his eye another guard about 45ft away heading towards the three drunken men most likely due to complaints of noise. The guard began to pick up his feet movement as the figure watched the three men once more. As the other two drunk men made their way through a alley way the figure was gone within seconds.

The figure made his way quickly from roof top to roof top as he peered down at the two men walking into a dark alley way and then it happened. A white vicious vampire came jolting from the left corner in which the two men were walking toward. The black figures eyes moved with the vicious creature as it went insanely charging after the two drunk men. The dark figure upon the roof tops spoke under his breath as he watched,

"I found you, finally bastard has been taking my food for the past couple of weeks."

Draco paused for a moment as he lightly lifted his arm to his blades handle and then with a quick motion jumped upward as he came slamming down in front of the two drunk men. The two men fell on their back as Draco lightly smirked as he watched the other vampire come running forward. Draco catching his eyes on the charging vampire then stepped back lightly gaining ground as he knew something was wrong. This vampire wasn't a vampire at all it was possessed uncontrolled. Draco quickly getting ready spoke,

"A demon? No way?"

Draco lightly taping his white fingers upon his handle of his blade watched as the ferocious beast came hysterically forward to kill.

"I want the creature found, and I want it destroyed!" Spittle flew as the captain fo the guard slammed his fist on the table, emphasizing the point he had already gotten across. Shain sat in the stiff wooden chair he had been offered near ten minutes before, hood pulled up, tips of his black hair hanging from the opening. Within the shade of the cowl, two white eyes gleamed, observing the armored man in front of him. An unseen eyebrow was arched, and Shain spoke. "That I understand. However, in my line of work, it is customary for those who "don't deal with my kind" to pay a great deal more for us to keep our mouth shut. That beside the fact that even in a normal job, this would incur an enormous amount of gold, or gems depending on the client, due to the fact that the person and/or beast in question has neither been seen or identified, and has left an incredible wake of destructi...."

The captains goblet went flying inches from Shain's face, wine following it. the liquid entered Shain's hood, and it was only due to fast reflexes that his eyes were closed in time. "Don't feed me air and ashe like you would the nobles and villains! You came recommended because of price and efficiency! What is wrong with my price!?" Shain let the man rage for a moment, then brought up his sleeve to wipe away the drink that covered his face. It would stain the tunic, but it was cheap and easily burned. "Your price of a thousand gold for it's head? Nothing besides the fact that it will merely give me incentive to find it out, get a god look at it, then come back with a drawing." Shain brought his sleeve away, looked at the newly formed stain, then let the hand drop again. Leaning forward, his white eyes found a strange light and peirced those of the guard captain.

"Payment decided by me for the killing of this thing, and the delivering of its head consists of 15,000, plus..." At this, Shain reached into the fold of his cloak, causing the captain to stiffen suddenly. Ignoring him, he brought out a medium sized purse and tossed it onto the table. the empty sack of leather landed with a muffled thump. "That will be filled with stones. Rare, smooth, and polished. For this, and only this will i deliver the bleeding stump from the beasts neck....."

Shain now peered our from an alley way he had covered with a globe of darkness. His eyesight enhanced so that he could see through the magic black, he followed the strange movements of this creature. Three weeks ago he had had that conversation with the guard captain, and three weeks ago payment had ensued. Since then, he, Whyverin, and Kythrone had been on the hunt, scouting every nook and cranny about the city. It had taken every waking moment to even trace the beast to here, and now Shain had reached a stalemate.

He should have charged more, he thought as he watched the thing stalk prey. it was a vampire obviously, but the manner in which it killed...it was brutal. Inhuman to be truthful, and this was despite the fact that vampires were inhuman to begin with. It was a machine, one that Shain hoped to observe tonight, to see how it actually worked. It's methods, it's habits. Everything.

Shain watched as it began to charge the two hopeless drunks. A pity for them, but his job was not to prevent the deaths of citizens. He would not jump in, nor would his cats. however, he did not plan on the dark figure that lept suddenly from the rooftops. "Damn!" Shain growled. Apparently another had been hired, or someone else had decided to take it upon themselves to hunt this thing down. Either would not have disturbed him initially, but there acting would ruin what he had planned. His only choice would be to act in accordance. Hoping that Whyv or Kyth were still patrolling around him in case they were needed, Shain burst out from his hiding space, following two daggers he had thrown moments earlier. His hands rose up to his neck and unfastened his cloak, letting it fly away from him as he grabbed for his knives. "Damn," he muttered again. He had not plan ned on fighting so soon.

The cobble stone sank into the bottom of his boots as his black cloak quickly dropped to the ground from the previous heightened jump. A sudden scream came from one of the drunks who began to crawl at the sight of Draco's back. Draco lightly smirked as he watched every quick movement made by such a unique beast. Draco continued to stay motionless as the beast began to close in on him. He lightly flared his nostrils as he caught a wrenching smell. He felt the soft cold chill hit him on his side once more as the beast went to strike at his chest. Draco quickly stepping back watched as the beasts hands formed into a large thickening dragon claws. Three large dragon claws came stretching out of the beast wrists. Draco stepping back quickly realized he would be wounded lightly on his left side of his chest. Feeling the claw slice through his skin smirked as his blade was released from his sheathed. The light burn of the tear int his pale skin made him eager to strike back.

Gripping the handle tightly by Draco's right hand quickly snapped his wrist forward as the blade went flourishing through the cold fall air. The blade began to close in on the beast as Draco stretched his left hand out as he lightly mumbled a chant. A dark purple aura began to form around his finger tips and into his hand. Purple strands of energy began to concentrate into the center of Draco's palm. While doing this Draco's blade connected with the beast's right shoulder. Tearing through the skin green liquid came spluttering out from the cracked pale skin. A tinted dark green almost as if poison was all this "thing" was running on. Draco watched as the green blood went flying towards the crawling drunk. The blood hit the mans back as it began to sizzle and sink into his skin burning the man's lower back like fire that never died out. Draco watching the demon pass by him simply shifted around the beast as it charged after the wounded drunk.

Draco was very pleased by this outrageous beast. Even the beast's blood was a weapon of destruction. The capabilities to form it's arm into dragon claws was interesting. The fast and elegant motion of the beast was very surprising as well. Draco now sensed another awkward smell a elf. As well as a drow not separate no together as one. The smell was odd and made Draco even more alert as he sent magic missiles to the beasts back. The beast paused just before he was ready to snatch the wounded drunk and dodged the oncoming missiles easily as if he sensed magic before anything else. Draco watched as the beasts ran along the cobblestone buildings of the alley way as he came raging toward for another sufficient strike. Draco looking over his shoulder caught a light gleam of knives.

"Another looking for some glory, Perhaps a assassin."

Draco spoke intently on knowing who this other interesting figure in the distance was. Draco turning his attention back to the beast noticed that it's face was as if a vampire but his arm was still formed into dragon claws. Draco observed intently before the strike would come in contact with his blade. Draco's black boots sank into the cobblestone ground once more as his footing was ready for a quick dodge and slash. The beast obviously had the advantage. Draco was still wounded from a pre4vious encounter with a worse enemy. Draco lightly held his blade with ease as he hoped for the man in the distance to pop in on the action. As the beast went to strike Draco swung his blade at the oncoming claws.

Everything was quiet the two men drunk were frozen in fear. Draco was calm and intently waiting on a perfected strike to kill this beast for good. In the distance the silent man waiting for a opportunity to attack. Then the ease of wind lightly lifted Draco's cloak as all the pieces to such a situation would soon unfold into the midnight air...

((Sorry a bit sketchy))

As Shain ran towards the vampire and it's black shrouded assailant, he unsheathed his choice weapons and began to put them through their rhythmatic twirls, keeping them on the move so that they would be ready to strike at a moments notice. From his distance it would take him a full 30 seconds to make it to the vampire and its opponent. Shain hoped that would be enough time for him to make the kill and be on his way. If he lost the things head to another, his payment was forfeit, and possibly his reputation, something an assassin needed perhaps even more than coin. How else was a hired killer to be hired unless he was well know within the proper circles.

Five seconds after he started, he noticed a change in his target. It's hands had become large and scaled, greatly resembling those of a dragon. Shain's brow furrowed at this. Shape-shifting was not something he had ruled out, but this was an odd sort. Most other types changed the entire physical appearance, they did not pick, or were not able to, one feature and change it so dramatically. This would make it an even greater challenge, though challenges were something he was accustomed to. On a roof two houses behind his target, he saw two dark feline shapes rushing towards him. He grinned slightly. It would take them quite a bit longer, for they were on high roofs and had to find a way down, but he had confidence that they would be here with two minutes at the most.

At fifteen seconds away, he saw the blood as the dark man made a wound. He also saw its properties. Blood like that could corrode his weapons in a matter of minutes, he thought his mind trying to figure out how to deal with this new information. Quick strokes that did not stay below the surface of the skin for two long, and many of them in succession. That was the way to battle something with such fluid flowing in its veins.

Shain watched as the thing dodged his heralds, the knives whistling by without touching the thing. Shain stopped his feet, thrusting them froward as he slid in five feet behind the dark man. The seemed to have stopped for a moment looking at him and the man who had interfered. Shain's knive continued to whistle through the air in his hands as he spoke to the man. "Pardon me, but you are in the way of my kill." he said soflty, his eyes on his mark the entire time, waiting for an attack.

Draco felt the smooth air rush by him as he watched knives fly forward toward such a beast. A infestation of beauty whatever the hell it was. The assassin had made his move and he was good at what he did it seemed his precision was of perfect timing. His arrogance however through Draco off on the oncoming attack. The giant claws clashed with Draco's blade as it sent a hard vibration through the steel blade. Draco quickly thrusting backward with his right foot gain more ground as the beast stopped and turned his attention toward the new assassin. Draco's eyes moved to the beasts movement og his claw as it motioned downward after the new assassin who seemed to have a problem with Draco's interference with the beast. Draco smirked as he rushed forward and slashed upward after the beast arm.

Slashing upward spoke to the assassin how now stood a few centimeters to his right while swinging his blade forward.

"Interfere?? Are you serious?"

Draco paused as he quickly swung and missed the beast but knocking his arm off course to save the assassin who claimed the beast as "His Kill." Draco twirled beneath the beasts dragon claw arm and began to concentrate energy into his right hand as his left hand held his blade now. He continued to talk as he watched the beast stay still waiting for someone to attack him.

"I suggest you get out of here this so called Kill of yours is whats been taking my food for the past few weeks, so I will d the honors."

Draco focusing on the beast the whole time sent a magic missile from his palm forward after the beasts chest. Draco then looked to the new assassin and lightly shrugged as he scoped out the surroundings quickly. The beast turning his attention to Draco was then hit with a purple blast of energy lightly making the beast step back. Draco widened his eyes in little belief that it took a direct hit. Draco hiding his shock jumped back and spoke,

"You assassins think you can come into this town and do what needs to be done when all they need is me."

Draco getting frustrated with the standing beasts was now on edge with a assassin who seemed decently equipped with knives. Draco shifting his eyes form the creature to the assassin spoke once more.

"So what the hell is your purpose dropping in on my own affairs??"

Gripping his blade he stepped forward as the beasts shook off the blast from his magic missile spell and looked to the assassin. Draco stood and grinned as he watched the beast go to cut down the foolish assassin...

Shain was in no mood to argue with the other man who was also apparently a vampire, though not quite as feral as the fiend that stood before them. It brought a deep scowl to His face as he learned this. His job was being jeopardized because of a territory dispute! He could understand, it being quite possibly the most fowl city there was, aside from the newly desecrated Taras, but that the fool would have to encroach on his living? The thought angered Shain more than the fact that he found he was going to be slightly underpaid for this job.

"Interfere?? Are you serious? I suggest you get out of here this so called Kill of yours is whats been taking my food for the past few weeks, so I will d the honors. You assassins think you can come into this town and do what needs to be done when all they need is me. So what the hell is your purpose dropping in on my own affairs??"

Shain dodge a couple misplaced attacks by the beast as it and the sane vampire dueled. "Well, it appears the captain of the guard was not pleased with your rate of getting things done, so I was politely called in. However, perhaps it is just me, but he neglected to mention that the 'owner' of the city was also looking into the affair." Shain rolled under one of the swinging claws, coming up two feet behind the vampire, his knives ready in case the things attention shifted.

"So I would say that the captain regards me as the better killer at the moment, since he is paying me for this. While you seem to be disputing feeding grounds." He raised an eyebrow at the last part, smirking a bit as the fiend stumbled back a single step after being blasted in the chest by a magical attack. Twisting around, the things eyes locked with Shain's and Shain knew that he would have his turn with the beast.

Smiling, Shain whispered the words for his sphere of darkness. " Belbau uns'aa isto." The sphere materialized around both he, the beast, the nearby drunks, and his unfriendly accomplice at the moment. An impenetrable darkness, those with enchanted eyes the only ones who can see through it. Such as Shain had. The Beats he could see through the strange greyness that was the globe to him had halted and was snarling this way and that. With a smile, Shain halted his knives, took a step forward, and plunged them into the beasts neck. Or would have if the things had not smacked the attack away without hesitation. Shain's eyes furrowed as his knives clinkckled together, and he leaped back as his opponent followed through with a counter. This thing did not appear to be able to see, but its sense were so sharp that it could dinstinguish where Shain was. He hoped Whyverin and Kythrone were making headway. He might just need them.

Black, and pure ever blurry grey was all that was seen. Draco had been in a position like this before and immediately smelled the foul odor of the beast. His newly asset to such a inconvenient matter seemed to have casted a spell in which envelopes the area into a dark orb only making those with the ability to see in the dark and or those with enchanted eyes could see through. Draco however was blinded in such a position. He was motionless as he felt the odor of the fiend before him a few feet away approximately 12ft. Draco's sense of angles and tactical movements were basically his life. In situations like theses he needed them. He had previously observed the alley way and knew precisely where he was. The odor faded as the assassins scent mixed in with it. It seemed the two were mangling with one another. Draco felt his hair drop past his hood as he quickly dashed to left slamming his feet against the brick alley way wall. Landing on a dumpster not even a few centimeters from the assassin spoke,

"Nice move with the darkness, but it seems like your beastly friend here has no problem sensing your pathetic attacks. Feeding ground? Oh no you have it wrong my friend."

Draco's voice sang a cold and serious dark tone into the ears of his accomplice. Draco smelling the beast's odor as it grew stronger knew it was closing in on his so called "friend." Draco with his left knee bent denting the dumpsters cover lightly jumped off landing behind the fiend. bending down to the pavement let his blade slide across the cobblestone ground. The ring of his blade sang a high c note of beauty as he lifted his blade from the ground as he stood and followed through with a back handed slash to the left side of the beasts lung. Twirling quickly his black cloak slithered across the ground, kicking up some dirt. The blade went to tear his lung horizontally, only the beasts elbow slammed into the blade as it gave a loud roar. The beast had now seemed to be hurt as the roar ended with a screeching noise of annoyance. the blade was quickly pulled back before the acid in his veins rusted the blade into a useless tip. Standing still, now Draco swung his blade down ward to get rid of the blood once more.

Draco's eyes moved as he sense the assassin move. Draco spoke as the screeching stopped,

"That is gonna get the guards attention, shame you were hired to do a simple man's dirty work. Pathetic and used is what you are my friend. All for reputation and coin, shamefully used."

Draco stopped as he walked to the side of the beast sensing his odor change in a strange way. He ignored it for a short time and continued to speak,

"As for the last comment fool, know your place before talking. This isn't my feeding grounds, it's a place in which I eliminate others to bring a balance to the world, heh, blinded by your own ambition to get your work done. This thing here is a threat not just to me, you as well."

Draco stated the obvious to the assassin and wondered what the man's thoughts were. Draco sensing something different about the fiend lightly stepped back as his blade was at the ready.

Another transformation?? Wish I could see.. damn assassin

Shain ducked under yet another wild swing from the fiend, listening to the words of scorn coming form the other vampire. Jabbing quickly into the beasts side, his blade entered and exited three consecutive times, tearing muscle, flesh, and organs. However, they did nothing to slow the thing. They kept giving his position away, making him relocate. Nothing that was beyond him, but it would help to know if this thing had a weakness. Getting in a decent shot to this things neck was also a bit difficult with its erratic movements. Perhaps he would need his sword. Slashing the thing across the chest, he threw himself backward, swinging his k knives through the air to make sure they were clear of the acidic blood. In a swift motion, he sheathed both of them, then quickly drew both of his poisoned blades, the dagger and the sword.

"Pathetic?" he said loudly, tilting his head so that a claw swept by harmlessly. "No, merely testing the thing. Quite unlike you pointless swings and stabs before I stepped in." Shain stabbed the fiend in the foot, bring out a loud roar as the other man stabbed it in the elbow. Shain raised an eyebrow. "A noble blood sucker. Why how foolish of me. I take it you find it your mission to find the most healthy, succulent men and women and weed them out of society. No doubt they are bad for breeding." he sneered.

The other Vampire had apparently deemed it necessary to join in it seemed, and Shain gave him a moment of his attention before returning to the actual threat. Who was changing again. The skin and muscles around its head and neck were shifting and changing. The skin seemed to be bunching up around the neck and the head was elongating into a sharp beak like snout. Shain paused and peered at this unusual feature. What could this be for? The then found out. The things neck suddenly stretched out, and the beak shot towards him, open and sharp edges ready to cut. Dodging quickly, he felt the beak close around a few strand of his hair. The Claws weren't all that dangerous and they were easily avoided, but this. This would be a little difficult to a void, though it did open the chance to take a swipe at it's head.

"Oh noble one," he called out. " You may want to back away. Considering the fact you can't it at the moment, your competition, I mean target has grown a longer neck."

Draco Lifting his blade to his chest slanted the tip of the blade horizontally. His eyes scanned through the grey darkness of the assassin's spell. Draco had been a bit irritated at the fact of a mere human coming to aid him in something he could easily take care of. Draco standing motionless looked to his newly advanced friend and spoke,

"A longer neck?" Draco lightly gave a deep breathe and quickly moved out of the way. A darting beak from previous intentions on killing the assassin flung forward. The stench of the foul beast lingered too close. It gave off a awkward screech as it slammed into the trashcan to the side of him. Draco taking his blade slashed downward at it hoping to hit it. The beak flew backwards and sank into the beast neck. Draco couldn't fight under such conditions well. He was used to the dark, not spells that blinded his eye sight. His mind trickled on a thought and then spoke once more.

"What the hell....was that?" Draco took another breathe. "Did that thing just come out of it's neck?" Draco asked curious to see if he put the pieces together. Draco walked around to the back side of the beast now. His mind and curiosity was now getting to him. His eyes flashed a bright silver in the darkness of the assassin's globe of darkness. Draco taking his blade from the ground to his chest pointed at the beast. The stench was horrific but the talents with him was lightly impressive. Draco quickly stepping forward dashed toward the beast as he looked to the assassin quickly a spoke,

"Strike at the same time and aim for the neck I'll attack at his back just before you reach him maybe we can take this bastard down quickly if we work together as much as I'd hate to say it."

Draco continued forward towards the beasts back as he was a good 34ft away from Draco's position. Draco marched on as he waited for the other interference to reply..

Shain, landed a punch on the beast left temple. His dagger was stuck in the things knee, though it did not seem to be slowing it down any. He grimaced as he though of having to replace the blade. It had cost him much time and a great deal of his earnings to make the connections to gain such a blade. He strike was enough to make the fiend stumble and turn, facing Draco at the moment the other decided to speak. The blind beast, on instinct it seemed,struck out with its new weapon. The attack was diverted by quick reflexes, and Shain had to admit that the vampire was fast. Slashing at the things left ankle, he severed the tendon connecting the heal to the foot. This, like every other wound, had no effect on the monster. It still manged to control its foot, turning to strike at Shain who didn't quite dodge fast enough. The claws of the thing grazed his shoulder as he rolled past.

Words were flung through the air again by the vampire, and Shain deciphered the noise while deflecting yet another snap from the newly elongated head/neck transformation. Work together? This of course had occurred to him, but he had been busy battling the beast nearly alone in the dark. He also found the idea repulsive working with the egotistical vampire that stalked the perimeter of the globe. This did not mean, however, that he would not. he did not respond however, not wanting the beast to attack him suddenly as it so liked to do when he spoke. Shain was surprised, however, when he heard the man speak again, this time behind him. Apparently the vampire had good hearing.

At his words, the beast immediately turned and lashed out. The vampire dodged around back, striking the thing in its hind quarters. This gave Shain enough time to dodge a suddenly clumsy attack, and exposed the thing neck. With a small grunt, Shain heaved his blade down, cutting through muscle, bone, sinew, and skin. As the blade cleared the bottom of the neck, Shain let the globe disperse, allowing the light of tlatterns to flood back into the area.

Sighing loudly, he flung the toxic blood from his bladed. "Well, I must admit, that was indeed choice timing on your part. And i also believe I am required to thank you for your assistance. However," he said, reaching down a grabbing a fold of skin near the base of the severed head's skull, "I believe i must be taking this." He picked up the severed head, and turned it so that the blood still in the appendage would begin to drain. "But look at it this way. You now have your hunting ground back. Or your place of judgment if you so desire to call it that."

Draco, sliding about the ground herd the slice to the beast back as it seemed to not have time to screech as it did before. It would be the cause of his newly Assassin friend slicing off it's head at the right exact moment. Draco felt no rush nor any sudden intention from the beast as he jumped to the side as he seemed to be getting his vision back. Draco smirked as he looked about the beast as it's head rolled about the ground stopping at the assassins feet. Draco quickly moved to his pockets taking out a towel. It was stained and crusty from previous blood on his blade as Draco wiped the beast blood of his blade he grinned. Draco felt the cold breeze blow as it did just before the savage thing started it's parade. Draco looked the man over as he watched for any sudden movements.

Draco running his hand down his steel blade lifted it to the sky and broke the chains of silence.

"Clean and a beauty." Draco paused as he looked to the head and spoke once more redirecting his attention to the man before him. "Nice moves, however why will you be needing the head. It is worth some gold which I intend to get." Draco sneered at his remark and replied with a vicious tone. "This place is no place for judgment unless i make it that way, as for the places I do that is none of your concern." Draco sheathed his blade quickly as he walked to the dead body taking out a vial in his cloak. Draco scooped up some of the blood and spoke. "I'll just sell it's blood to some necromancer, and your welcome. Maybe if you didn't blind me with that idiotic talent of yours it would have been over quicker." Draco waved his hand to the man as he turned away as he looked over his shoulder. Draco stopping looked up to the night sky as he waited for the man to reply or possibly vanish into the night. Draco still on his guard was ready if the man would strike..
