Wandering the streets of London, Alex decided to see if there was anything that she wanted to do. I do need some money. Wonder if the Quest Board has anything not combat related. With that thought in mind, she headed toward the nearest Quest Board. When she got there, she was slightly disapointed to see that there where only combat related quests. I could try to do a combat quest, but that is a last resort, I am not combat oriented right now. Taking note of some of the names on the requests, Alex headed toward Zuth's shop to see if he had anything other than the request he already had on the board.
When she got to The Stout Iron she knocked and opened the door. "Hello, Zuth? Are you in here?" From behind the counter, Zuth looked up, "Oh, Little Lady, what can I do to help you today?" Ahh, hes here, great. "Do you have anything else you need done, other than the request you already have on the board by chance?" Zuth took a second to look over Alex before giving his reply. "Not at the moment, but if you ever want to help me get rid of these pesky slimes, I will give you something worth your time". Could help later if I find someone to help me, not much I could do on my own. "Thanks for the offer, but I can't this time, maybe some other time". With that Alex left the building, and started to head to the next shop.
Her next destination was Sakura's shop, the Blossom Needle. Main reasoning was since Alex didn't see a request from Sakura on the board. Maybe she needs help and is too busy to post anything, worth a try. After a few minutes of walking, Alex arrived in from of the Blossom Needle. Knocking on the door before opening it, Alex saw Sakura before she could even say anything, and she looked very flustered. "Umm, Sakura, do you need any help? You look a little flustered..." Noticing that Alex had entered the room, Sakura turned toward Alex, "Ahh, Hekate, yes I need a little help. Baxton hasn't showen up to drop his clothes for me to repair yet". Ahh, guess that is a thing in the world, need to repair clothes when they get ruined. "Baxton, you mean the head of the town guard Baxton?" Being a town guard must be murder on the uniform "Yes, he normaly comes by to drop off his uniform every six months, but he hasnt shown up yet". "want me to go look for him and get his uniform for you?" As soon as Alex said that, Sakura's face lit up a little. "Could you please, I don't have the time to worry about looking for him, I have more work to do, and I can give you a little something to make it worth your time" Seeing Sakura act a little not like her normal self, Alex couldn't refuse. "I'll make sure to get his uniform to you soon, just do whatever it is you need to do Sakura". With that said, Alex turned toward the door, and left.
Now outside the shop, Now, I wonder where Baxton would be. Barracks? Field? Patroling? would take forever to find him if he's out on patrol. Guess a good place to start would be the barracks. Mkaing up her mind, Alex left in the direction of the barracks. After 20 minutes or so of wandering to find the barracks, Alex finaly made it there. Standing outside the slightly impossing town guarg barracks, Alex started to ponder going in, but decided to do it. "Hello, is Baxton here, I was sent to look for him by Sakura". One of the guards within the barracks spoke up to Alex's question. "No, Captian Baxton is not here at the moment, he is out patrolling the city". I really was hopping he wasnt patrolling. "Can I wait here untill he comes back?" Visable disapointed, the guard within didnt respond verbaly but gave an indiffrent expression giving the air of not caring as long Alex didn't get in the way.
After an hour of waiting outside the barracks for Baxton to return, He finaly returned from his patrol. "Baxton, I'm here for Sakura, can we talk?" Baxton sighed, either from being tierd due to the patroll he was just on, or the fact he had to deal with another adventurer, or possibly both. However, after hering that Alex was here for Sakura, "I guess you're here to pick up my other uniform for Sakura. Come with me to get it and then leave". He must really not like me...or maybe just not adventurers? Baxton heads within the barracks and Alex follows him in. Once inside the barracks, Alex can see that her presence is tolerated, but not welcomed, as most of the guards glare at her. Once they arrived at Baxton's room, Baxton picked up a very worn out uniform, wraped it up in a spare sheet, and handed it to Alex. "Here take this to Sakura, and get out of my barracks. I'm tierd and dont want to deal with adventurers". Definitely not welcomed here right now. Hope I can fix that later. "Umm, before I go, Sakura seemed very worried since you hadn't shown up to drop these off with her, Can I have a reason so I can let her know, hopefully calm her down?" With a visable sigh, Baxton gave a quick responce, "I wasn't able to drop them off since I have been very busy keeping everyone in this town alive, and my workload has only gotten larger since you Adventurers started messing around. Now, please, go". Having been told to leave twice now, Alex decided it was best to leave and not ask another question, seeing as Baxton looked like he might kill her if she stayed any longer, and left the barracks.
With the package of tattered clothes in her hand, Alex decided it was best to return to Sakura as quick as possible to avoid another incident where a thief may attack. To this end, he started to run at a moderate pace, while trying to keep aware of her surroundings. Managing to cut 8 minutes off her travle time, Alex arrived at the Blossom Needle a little before dark. As Alex whent to knock on the door, It was oppened from within by Sakura. "I saw you running here. Did you get Baxton's clothes for me to repair?" Being asked about the clothes, Alex held up the package under her arm for Sakura. "Thank you so much Hekate. Come inside and I'll give you something worth your time today". "Ah, Sakura. Before that, I got why Baxton didn't come to give you his clothes. He was very busy keeping everyone safe, and we adventurers only made it harder for him, it seems. Sorry if we where part of the reason you where worried". Sakura was visably glad that I had found out why Baxton hadn't been by, and a little happy smile broke out on the previously distant face. Motioning for Alex to come inside, Sakura left for her back room and dropped the small package off, before returning to the main store area. "Thank you for your help today, Hekate. I'm a little tiered today, but here is the reward I said I would give you". Taking the reward in hand, Alex left to find a place to eat, and later a place to sleep.
