Glancing down again as the phone beeped, Cral relaxed visibly when he saw that Hulinn was now in the forest. Sighing he entered the stable to brush the eagle's and clean the stables, if he was here he might as well make himself useful.

Saiya shot up in bed and stumbled off of it and towards the door. Not waiting for Kai or to explain she pulled it open in time to catch Abby as she started to rush by. "Where?" She asked the little girl who took her hand. "Stables." She answered as the two of them ran for the stables. "CRAL!" They yelled in unison as the entered. Saiya grabbed his arm first. "Wolves.." She panted. "In the forest!" Abby finished. "They're hunting her, from her other job." Saiya bent in half as her stomach rolled in protest of her movements. "They have her scent."

Kai bolted out of, right behind Saiya. "You stay here with Abby!" he shouted upon hearing the news, taking off down the hall.
Cral's head jerked around as he heard someone yell his name, taking off towards it. He was worried something had happened to the others.
Kai ended up running into Cral as he barreled through the doors. "Hulinn-" he stated trying to get up, cut off as Cral was already rushing back to the stable. Kai didn't need to tell him twice that she was in trouble, his tone of voice said it all.
Madam Tristcal shooed Saiya and Abby into the room. "Come on now, no sense in getting in the way now."

Saiya groaned miserably, regretting her run through the halls as her stomach reminded her that it had already been unhappy with her.
Abby rubbed her back as she walked with the older girl.
Hulinn was standing with her back to a stone wall of some ruins in the forest. She had her last two silver daggers in her hands as she eyed them and waited for them to make a move. So far she had come out of this on the better side, the slash on her arm might need stitches but other than that she had no real injuries. A black hooded figure came from the shadows of the forest and Hulinn cursed, she had forgotten that she had double crossed them. In her line of work you always made enemies but you tried to limit their level of power, these guys were not the type you double crossed. "s**t." Gritting her teeth she pulled her energy and powers to her.
The phone let out a little alarm at the fact that Hulinn's anxiety had peeked, her heart rate accelerated.

Cral cursed as he heard the phone's warning tone as he urged the eagle faster. He needed to get to her now and he wouldn't forgive himself if he didn't get there in time. Scanning the forest as they whizzed over it, he kept and eye on the dot to make sure of her location.

Hulinn panted, the wolves no longer a threat as they were either off to lick their wounds or dead. However there were three figures she was concerned over. How did someone fight something like them, something so powerful in so many different ways. She stood in the middle of them and panted as she watched them carefully. Why couldn't it have just been the wolves? The wolves she could have handled, these guys though...there was no question. If they wanted to punish her for crossing them, then she would be punished.

A flash of silver caught Cral's eye as he sent the eagle into a dive. There was Hulinn, he'd found her. His heart skipped a beat as he saw the cloaked figures around her, but so had others who didn't have her well being at heart.

Hulinn's attention switched as she looked up and saw Cral. Spreading her arms out she released the energy she had collected in a circular blast of wild lightening that had even the cloaked ones backing away a bit, giving Cral more room to get her.

Hanging upside down on the eagle, Cral held out his hands for her as they swooped down low over the forest floor.

Hulinn jumped and caught his wrists with her hands. "Come here often?" She teased with a wink and a bright smile, despite the fact that her arm was greatly protesting the pull on her injury. Her only injury which was a fact she was quite proud of.

Cral grabbed her other hand and swung her up onto the eagle, righting himself as he did so. "No, but its a good thing a did." he stated, rolling them into a tight turn as they climbed into the sky.

Hulinn wrapped her arms around his waist and pressed a kiss to the back of his neck. "My hero." She informed him as she hugged him. "I'm guess our little seers told you they were coming for me?"

He rubbed a hand along the arms around his waist. "Yes and I'm extremely happy they did." Cral replied, turning to look at her. "Guess worrying paid off."

Hulinn laughed and rolled her eyes. "Are you going to worry every time I go on a job?" Setting her chin on his shoulder she huffed. "That just put's my gift to waist you know. It was supposed to help you not worry."

Cral shifted so that he could kiss her. "I'm going to worry anyways." he pointed out as they passed through a cloud. "But your gift did help my nerves... Right up to the imminent danger of course." Cral added, banking to take the long way back to the temples.
