Money owns this town (PRIVATE FOR REDKITE AND SCARSMATE)

[Scars Mate]

'Look for an inn?' Suggested River, though didn't really feel up to looking for a room.

[RedKite]

Lana shrugs, "Whatever you want to do."

Hatari, too busy to come back with a sharp challenge, stares at a bird far off in the distance.

[Scars Mate]

They trekked through the town, getting strange looks from the villagers. They came to an inn, and knocked on the door. Sadly, the moment the owner saw Hatari, he slammed the door shut.

[RedKite]

(lol. that damn hatari making trouble...)

Giovanni looks ashamed: "Sorry guys, that was my fault. Hatari, could you...you know...Go somewhere else or something?"

Hatari snorts and goes behind a building, coming back as a smaller version that was about as big as Ryder and had massive eyes.

[Scars Mate]

Xavier shuddered.What an ugly thing, he thought to himself. River seemed to agree; she was pulling a face. Matias seemed to have a constant growl in the back of his throat, which was louder already.

[RedKite]

Hatari returns the growl and grins at the troop's obvious discomfort.

"Something a little less weird ?" Lana asks, crossing her arms.

Hatari huffs and goes behind the building again, this time coming back as a fine black horse. Although still reptilian in his face and teeth, he looked normal enough. He retained his neon green eyes, but looked like a reasonably attractive horse none-the-less. His armoured skin had turned into a shiny black bridle and saddle, he swished his tail impatiently.

"A little better." Lana comments.

Giovanni tries to supress his shock, he had never known that Hatari could shapeshift.

"Ok so, we need a story. They won't believe us if we tell the truth."

[Scars Mate]

'How about you two are brothers,' she gestured to Giovanni and Xavier. 'And we'll be...' She hesitated, looking to Lana. 'I don't know. What do you think?'

'You two can be our partners,' Xavier stepped in.

[RedKite]

Hatari raises an eyebrow, but stays still, black tongue still darting out of his horse-ish mouth as if in deep thought. Lana's eyes look to Ryder who shakes her large red-furred head. Giovanni looks to the floor as if embarrassed or shy, or a combination of both.

[Scars Mate]

River shrugged.

'It's only a cover story,' she reminded them, but in truth was slightly apprehensive. Xavier nodded.

'Let's find somewhere else and try again,' he decided, starting off in a brisk walk.

[RedKite]

Hatari waits at the back. Giovanni turns around and shushes him.

"Remember, keep your mouth shut, no talking, no tongue and no teeth, ok?" He reminds Hatari. The horse nods and walks slowly.
