Sakura glanced at the girl for a sec. Even after making that big scence to get the girl away from that guy, she thought she was not going to help her. "I will help." she said slowly, "trust me as i trust you, and we will find a way to get you out of this mess."

Cailean didn't dare look back at the Agent. He would probably figure out that they were planning something. "Okay," she whispered. "I have an idea. Just watch and see," she grinned, somewhat micheivously. ((I've got a nice little "show" planned, but for next time. Not enough of that right now. ))

Sakura realizes this woman was being careful not to have 'mall cop' see them planning. She give her a very small nodd in reply.

Cailean took a deep breath to steady her nerves as well as prepare herself for the tremendous amount of power she was about to exert. While she had used her glamour on herself numerous times, she had never before attempted to use it on another person. Or, rather, many people. It was difficult to influence a single person's sight with the change of others, and not have those others notice what you were doing.
With a burning resolve and grim determination, she nodded at the woman beside and let loose the tidalwave of power within.
It was actually felt like being hit with a tidalwave, as far as Cailean could tell. Using tremendous control to concentrate her power into a single "thing" inside herself and her mind, Cailean "opened the floodgate" and loosed the magic upon to crowd. The tricky part of bewitching a single person was the actual concentration onto a single target. This involved a lot more control than if you wanted a crowd to see it.
The Agent, glancing down at his watch for a split second, returned his gaze to the target and had to do a doubletake. Then a third...
The target was all over the place! Everywhere he looked, every man, woman, and child looked like Cailean Moriartis.
What the hell? he silently cursed to himself.
"Cailean!" he shouted. "Where are you? You know I'll find you!"
He started wading through the crowd, spreading out his own sense to find the source of the spell. Thinking he'd caught a "bite", he headed off in the direction of the north entrance. This was a fortunate move for someone. Of course, it was not for him that he headed in the complete opposite direction of Cailean and her new companion. The girls exited via the south entrance and quickly headed for a vehicle.
Cailean, looking over her shoulder to make sure the Agent was still following a decoy, laughed out loud to herself. "What an idiot," she cried, dancing in the parking lot. "What a show!" Now, in a more serious tone, "That was the easy part, but I don't think he'll be fooled for long. Agents have a tendency to look like idiots one moment, then evil geniuses the next. Do you have any ideas as to what we ought to do? You've done so much already, I feel indebted to you."

Saruka shakes her head before she answers, because she is still shocked from seeing the other girls power. "Um... right... your name... is.... Cailen.... Cailean right? At least that what the mall cop was calling you!" Quickly looks around the parking lot suddenly very nervous. "I guess we should get out of here!!" Gets in the vehicle, and turns to her companion. "Where to?"

Cailean becomes concerned, pondering this. Going back to her house wouldn't be safe, seeing as how she had escaped the Agent and he would most certainly be sending people to her house. Of course, if they thought she might be smart enough to stay away, they might not bother with it at all. Then again, they might think that she would think of that. So...what should she do? "Let's go to Le Bistro. It would be safer, and I've never been there before, so I doubt the Agent(s) would be following me there. I'll lead the way, but try to keep up. " Cailean ran over to her cycle and fairly leapt into the seat. Revving the engine, she sped off toward the north exit.

Sakura quickly turn the engine as tried to follow after Calien. She watched as the Calien sped and wove inside and outside of the lanes toward Le Bistro. She shaked her head, "That kind of driving is what causes the accidents."

((all right everyone, here I go...Lucifer makes his appearance))
*At a small, rustic corner of Rookter...a tall young man weaves down the sidewalk through the other pedestrians. Moving through the crowds without missing a beat in his step, he manages not to hit a single person. There was an aura about him, as he moved about- he wore a white leather trenchcoat with a wispy fur collar and blue designs around the embellishments. The light wind took the tails of his jacket, along with the bangs of his loose silver hair...Underneath the silver hair, a piercing glare radiated from his eyes...two gleaming, deep violet eyes upon a light skinned face. His features had an air of mystery about them...*
mysterious young man:*looks at a sign that reads: ~Le Bistro~ Corner Cafe* “...this is a good place to take a breather...”
*The young man takes a turn for the cafe, steps in, and quietly takes a seat...*
waitress: “hello there, how may I help you?” *hands him a menu*
mysterious young man: *Takes the menu, thanks the waitress, opens it and ponders for a minute* “.....i’ll....take this, your ~Darjeeling Jasmine Tea~”
-ten minutes pass-
waitress: “here you go, enjoy” *hands him a cup and saucer with a pleasant flowery aroma to it*
mysterious young man: *takes the cup and saucer, and whiffs in the scent before sipping it* “...ahhh....this is it....I needed this” *closes his eyes*
((there...it wasn’t much...but there he is...sipping some tea))

((Go Al! ;D Good intro.) The mall is a short ride away from ~Le Bistro~, roughly fifteen minutes. Cailean enjoyed the ride; the strong, gusting wind seemed to blow her troubles away, as it so often did. However, she knew this feeling would stop once her bike did. It always did. Roaring up an alley (she was almost sure she had lost the new girl until she saw her drive up the main road), she screeched to a stop in a parallel parking spot in front of the shop. She frequented the place, as did most of the patrons. The parking spaces were all but assigned. Strapping her helmet to the handlebars, she waited a few moments for her "friend" to find a space. "Sorry if the ride was a bit fast for you," Cailean grinned, shaking her wind-blown hair away from her face. As she walked backward toward the door, she attempted to braid the mess. "I don't mean to go so fast, but the speed, the bike, all of that is amazing when you've learned how to "feel" the ride." The little cluster of bells over the door jingled softly as the two girls entered. Cailean saw many of her friends scattered at the individual tables. The cafe in general was decorated with flowers, soft shades of dark colors. Incense burned in the corners, subtle undertones to the classic music playing on hidden speakers. It was almost like an Indian restaurant, but not quite. Today... Hmm, I wonder who he is? Cailean thought briefly, watching Jeskica bring a cup of something to a man in the corner. He was odd in his appearance. Not horrible strange, just...different. Mage? she thought, then shifted her gaze before he realized she was staring at him. Deciding to ignore him, at least obviously, for the moment, Cailean led Sakura to her usual table. Coincidentally, it was less than thirty feet from the table where the stranger was seated. "Jeskica, could I have an iced green tea?" The waitress smiled in the direction of the table, having heard the order and walking off to retrieve it. "Now," Cailean said, turning to the subject at hand in a low voice. "We're both in a load of trouble now. These Agents...I don't know what you know about them, and to understand what's going on, you have to." Quickly Cailean explained what had happened in the mall, excluding in great detail the man who'd helped her in the clothing store. "I know this is weird, but I also want to thank you for helping me today. I hope that this will not bring any trouble that is undue to you." As Jeskica brought the drink and Cailean sipped at it, she decided to silently explore the room. More specifically, the man behind them. Usted está en peligro. ((You're in danger)) What? Cailean projected, bewildered. That voice...a.) Spanish, b.) there was either a telepath in the room or they knew she would be searching them and could hear their thought if they projected it. Agentes, afuera ((Agents, outside)) ((The reasons the other person is speaking Spanish...just trying to incorporate some of Cailean's other talents in here. At least it isn't French... ))

*Two ladies had stepped into the small cafe shortly after he did. Glancing at them with his mind's eye, he sensed them as mages...although their eye's gave them away even more. Making sure it didn't seem like he was staring, he kept his gaze diverted-but then he sensed something very different...agents, Maho Agents- right outside- they had apparently tailed the two ladies...he sent one of them a telepathic warning*
well...I hope she got that warning...if they want to escape, they'll have to do it now...of course...if all else fails, Silver will be right here...

Sakura met up with Calien, and together they went into the cafe. She also noticed the guy in the corner. She got a strange feeling from him, something she felt from Calien.
She had listened to her friend's story and was about to tell her, when the other girl got a strange look in her eyes, and grew paler. "Calien, are you ok..?" But the other girl didn't hear her, she was like in a trace for a moment. Not sure what to do, Sakura glaced out the window and gasped. Outside she that same uniform as Maho agents on him.
The guy she had taken to the hospital with unusually burn on his arms, that the medics would not give any pain killers to. So she healed him a bit, to relieve the pain. She was not sold after all. But she was betrayed.

*Glancing outside, the man noticed that the Agents had stopped not too far from the front door. Keeping a close eye on them both directly and through some psychic channeling, he could make out what they were planning. He was right, the group of Agents were after the two ladies who had come in- one of which he warned. But, much to his dismay...the two hadn't moved- although...he did notice that the other girl caught a glimpse of the Agents and now knows about the threat. Seeing that the one he ahd warned was still entranced...the man prepared for whatever was coming...*
Why haven't they left?...If they chose to, the back door is still a choice...wait any longer and this place will be surrounded...

She normally prided herself on being able to think on her feet, but at the moment, Cailean was fairly close to panicking. Seeing the men outside, mere yards from her being, was enough to send ice water down her spine. It felt as if she been frozen to the spot. Luckily, her thoughts were continuing to run, if not a little scattered.
There are men oustide, obviously Agents. Agents equal very bad. This is not good, so what am I going to do about it? Wonderful, I brought Sakura into this, how am I going to get her out? Hey, maybe their after the other one...but, if their here for him, they're definitely going to sense us, even if I did use my power. *sigh* There is no good end for this.
This intricate deliberation was costing the pair precious moments of time. Her mind flitted to the possible escape routes, but nothing helpful came to mind. The only exit was the back door that opened onto a back alley running parallel to the store.
"Sakura," she whispered, "we have to get out of here. Follow me; we have to get out the back door and follow the alley to the mouth at the opposite end. From there..."
Before her sentence could be finished, the door to the cafe burst open, slamming against the wall and cracking the glass.
"Freeze!" two Agents shouted, guns in one hand, the other outstretched, pointed at the humans in the cafe. Whilst Cailean knew that Agents had limited, if any, abilities, it was likely they could cast some sort of shield, if it were weak anyway.
There was no more time for deliberation. Sakura and Cailean sprung up from their chairs, sending them crashing to the ground. Recklessly turning their backs on the Agents, they sprinted for the back door, weaving in and out of the tables. Sakura slowed as she waited for Cailean...
...who promptly tripped over a stray tray, falling painfully to the ground and twisting her ankle as she fell.

Sakura turned to make sure Cailen was behind. But she turned in time to see her falling. It looked like a hard fall, and she instantly recognized the unnatural angle of her ankle.
Cailen will never be able to get out of here, with an injury like that!
I got to do something fast!
As she was about to turn around, Cailen tried to stop her, but it was to late. One of the agrents shot his gun... And the bullet came flying toward Sakura.

((you modified it?...the original was fine though...Oh, and I'm gonna try something different with my writing))
*Just as the bullet reached her...something happened...it began to slow down. Coming to a complete stop in right in front her, it suddenly went flynig backwards straight at the Agent who fired it. The Agent's hand was hit- sending him reeling back in sheer agony, and forced him to disarm. His partner stood there in slight confusion...but began to tremble in fear when he felt the presence of a third mage in the cafe. At that moment, the man in the corner stood up...and calmly walked towards the two ladies...*
" Don't you dare lay as much as a finger on these two..." he says; now standing between them and the Agents. His face was facing slightly downwards...a small crooked smile could be seen, and underneath the silver bangs were two fiercely glowing violet eyes.
Muttering to himself while trembling in fear, "w-wait...s-s-silver hair...white t-trenchcoat...violet eyes" realizing who it is that just got involved, he pulled out a small communication device and relayed to base one message that the three could hear, "M-Maho Agent 30 reporting; I...have...sighted the Anomaly...proceeding to capture...*gulp* ."
"So, you know who I am...good...now if you know that, then you also know what comes next." As he spoke, he began to slowly lift his hand...Just as the Agent made for his gun.
As the Agent tried to fire, the man's eyes turned wholly violet. Then, out of his open hand- now pointing at the Agent- a glowing white sphere burst into silver blades that flew towards the Agent. The Agent then fired on impulse...to no avail...the blades sliced through each bullet he fired with ease. He dropped his gun and made a run for it...but the blades cut through him before he made it to the door. There was no blood...just massive open cuts, the blades were like vacuums, and left no traces; the agent was crying in incredible pain.
That message he sent...reinforcements...I'll have to get them out of here...
