Zero stiffened, then began to turn slowly, wondering if he'd find a smile or a glare behind him.

Az was grinning evilly at him, as she let herself fall back, and stood up straight. "You've no idea how many men have told me that, after all..." She tossed her head, the line of her jaw visible for a moment, "I'm to inherit my fathers estate when he dies..."

Zero gave her a curious look. "Come on, do I honestly look like the type to go after a girl for her money?"

Az held up a purse, and shook it. It was Zero's. "Do I look like the kind of girl would steal for fun?" She asked him before skipping backwards once, and turning to run. "It's mine unless you can catch me!" She told him, gesturing for Hatine to follow. "Good luck!" With a laugh she was off, the purse tucked into her tunic.

Zero was after her like a shot. He didn't care about the coffer, to him, she was the real prize.

Az skidded, turning into an ally, and jumped, swinging herself up onto a low shed roof, then up onto the roof. Being at the guild didn't mean she'd let herself get out of shape, or eaten to much. Actually, she tended to eat scraps, just like she had before. It meant she didn't have the best food, but she got it, and she was still thin. She watched him from her crouching position for a moment, before disappearing up the side of the roof.

In one fluid leap, Zero was on the roof and scrambling after and closing the distance.

As she ran, Az kicked off her shoes, and then let the jacket fall from her shoulders. She'd always hated running in more than loose clothing. When she reached the chimney, she grabbed it's edge, and shot off in a different direction, dropping down into another ally, and disappearing in the snow, only her foot prints were left, and they were quickly being covered.

Zero was nowhere to be seen.

Az stopped, her back against a wall, breathing a little harder than she would normally. Hatine was above, keeping a lookout. Az was only doing this to show him that this was her area, and that anyone who invaded it would be in trouble. Her hand tightened on her sword, ready for anything.

"So...why don't you givd me my wallet back so i can buy you dinner." Zero said casually from his spot leaning against the wall next to her.

Az smiled, "Who said I was hungry?" She asked, jumping forward, and disappearing as he had done before. Her voice drifted to him, indistinct, and impossible to follow. "I don't enjoy eating much anyway..." Then her laughter again, and then this too faded away.

Zero grinned. "You're not gonna make this easy are you?"

"Why would I make this easy?" Az asked from the roof above him. She was watching him, her head on her hands as she swung her feet, smiling. "This is my town now."

Zero didn't bother chasing after her, she'd be on a different roof by the time he got there. "Well then, is there anywhere in your town you'd let me take you on a date to?"
