"Oh, a ballsy one, aren't you?"
"Listen you, I - OI, WHERE THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING?"


The man was relentless. Radeah's eyes narrowed but she didn't stop. Didn't he have better things to do? Like going to a bar and drinking till he passed out? Surely that would be more interesting than chasing a woman who just didn't apologize. What on earth possessed this man to chase the disguised high priestess? Was it her looks? Or was he really that hot headed? Right, she's the one to talk, she has lost her temper several times before, even over the slightest things. And she had killed people for that.

"Hey you brat, you can't just walk away in the middle of a conversation."

This made Radeah stop. She turned to look at the man with anger filled eyes. "I certainly can, in fact, I just did. And I wouldn't call it much of a conversation." She hissed. She would have liked to kill him on that spot but it was such a public place. Someone was bound to witness it. Mertenah was whispering to her, it listed spells and shared knowledge. It was starting to get annoyed by the man too but the priority was to be unnoticed. Silently Radeah started to repeat a spell the spirit was whispering to her. She felt her body tingling . It felt like she had been shattering into pieces somehow, it didn't hurt, it was like she had been shedding her skin, though she wasn't. She was done with the spell. A smile rose to her lips as she looked at the man. "Let's see if the mouse can catch the cat." She bowed and suddenly her body scattered turning into a shadow. This way she could either get rid of the stalker or at least lead him to a place where there were less people. No one from the crowd had noticed her disappearance act. Well, she wasn't invisible but she was a shadow among dozens. Only difference was that she didn't belong to anyone, therefore she was free to move anywhere.

Radeah moved quickly, feeling lighter and more free than ever. She felt Mertenah's joy. The spirit loved the shadows, maybe it reminded it of home? Even spirits probably had some sort of a home. She headed toward a narrow alley nearby. It was the perfect place to be. The whole place was in the shadows. The sun didn't hit it. Not to mention there weren't people in there. From the alley she could see the beginning of the network of dozens of back alleys. It was like entering a labyrinth. She crawled along the walls of a building, like a normal shadow would do, till she decided she had to change back into her human form. She repeated a spell and it looked like she had formed out of the wall. Smoothly she stepped onto the alley in full human form. It was an odd sensation to change a form completely but this wasn't her first time. She threw a glance at the beginning of the alley to see if the man had managed to follow her, or had she lost him?
