5 People stood in front of Caleb not noticing his presence he observed them with a curious glint in his eyes.

One who stood the most prominent in this group, shining in the light some righteous knight, golden hair went to the nape almost looking effeminate from the side, He or she holding a helm in his left hand which was covered by a kite shield, A sword ornate sword was attached to the back.

Looking at the second most glaring figures was a tall individual ,it was a woman with pallid skin and long black hair who as if knowing Caleb’s was looking at her met his gaze with disdainful eyes who disregarded Caleb’s existence as if he was some vagrant after the quick glance, she looked cold-hearted and her posture was indifferent ,she was also impatient her foot kept hitting the floor making a methodical tune .

A More diminutive figure caught Caleb’s eyes who cowered behind the tall women staring at Caleb, She was young, a girl with white robes and with similar golden hair to the leader. She held a staff topped with a crystal of white ,If Caleb saw her without this party of misfits he would think she was a priest.

The other more diminutive figure much smaller was covered by a green robe standing absolutely still leaving not a single vibration in his or her stature.

Looking up from them two of them a massive women stood behind standing like a chizled statue with blazing red hair stood , muscles bare and pulsating with strength exuding. Looking towards the face of the giant his eyes met and Caleb stepped back a bit and looked away, Caleb was cowed and felt a bit akward not being able to keep eye contact.

The leader looked toward the old lady and approached her ignoring Calebs presence

“Im sorry to intrude but i was told you were giving lodging to someone who came from the forest who might that be ”

The old lady gave a knowing glance to Caleb who retuned a eyeroll and nod

“The young lad to your left”

All 5 of them looked towards Caleb, all they saw was a dishevelled hair and a generally homeless appearance.

As they looked at Caleb he gave a curt nod of acknowledgement.

The blond one approached Caleb and reached out a hand and Caleb joined in a kind

“Greetings, i am Marcus, You? ”

Caleb nodded with a slow repone

“Not much of talker, Anyway we need a guide and were willing to pay ,no one here in the village wants to enter it , the 2 guards at the gate told us about you”

Caleb sighed heavily and facepalmed

“Im sorry did offend you ”

Caleb shook his head and giving a smirk.

‘Those 2 are going to be the death of me’

“Well anyway onto business, we need to find Direwolves, we will give appropriate payment ”

The man looked Caleb with eyes which communicated more than words, a look of are you sure

Caleb chuckled knowing he looked like someone who would be more dead weight than help and nodded with a confidence and a smirk.

“So you accept ”

Caleb really was getting irked by this not being able to communicate and nodded.

“The payment will be in 10 silver advance and 10 on completion, sound good ”

Caleb had no use for money also have no idea how the currency worked in this world he and put a finger up and pointed after catching the mans attention towards a dagger within its sheath.

“You want this ”

Caleb nodded again

“Oh , ok then ” the man took the dagger gave it and its sheave to Caleb, Caleb span around the blade in the air

“Be careful with that ”

This brung a smirk to Caleb’s mouth and he tossed it in the air and deftly caught it with a flourish and kept it slightly hanging out of the sheath within moments giving a surprise to the group, Caleb thought about how this suited him with all the sneaking and on this line of thought, he remembered something, where the fuck has the horn gone too.

“Well then the payment taken over let me introduce our merry little band ”

“i am Marcus, The tall redhead is Rea, The small tricky one is john

“Hey fuck you i aint small”

Sighing he continued “The small blond one is Ellie, The cold one is Lela ”

Lela walked past Marcus with a push

“Before we do anything we need to make sure he is not dead weight ”

Marcus looked at Caleb and shrugged his shoulders as ife he could do nothing

Caleb confused on how to respond decided to use what he knew best to communicate

Caleb comically used his middle and index to show some slow movements as trying to make his 2 fingers tiptoeing

Rae piped up “You walk”

Ellie piped up “No silly he sneaks, don’t you”

Caleb nodded, surprisingly sherades worked in a different world

‘Well onto the next one ”

Caleb did the same movement and then with his hands, he put his thumb out and went from the left of his neck to the right.

This time it was the small hooded one removed his hood and brown hair fell down dishealved and approach Caleb

“You kill things while sneaking like me, nice to meet a fellow rogue ”

John moved forward with a hand outstretched and as Caleb reached towards it

John pulled Caleb in Supringly lite a hearty reunion as if they were friend meeting after a long time away and put one arm over his shoulder but with some effort due to size differences

“You should not be so trusting ”

John had his dirk placed on the soft skin and Caleb looked at him with a mischievous glint as John looked back his hair fell from his shoulders

“Who the fuck did that”

John looked around to find the defiler of his locks

Caleb raised his hands empty

The whole party just ended up laughing as Johns brown hair fell to the ground

John looked back exacerbated

“Hey what you laughing at ,STOP ,JUST STOP ,IT IS NOTfunny”

“Oh yes it i…..”

Marcus felt a cold sensation on his neck which stopped his tongue

“The ,,.,.fuck”

The party halted the joint hysteria and stared at Marcus, they saw the Caleb holding the knife to the neck of Marcus as soon as they saw Caleb swiftly sheathed the dagger looking very happy with himself.

John looked surprised”Fuck i concede, your good, But don’t think you’ll get me next time”

Rea talking in a dumb tone retorted to John

“Yeah, your hair to go longer need weeks, too short trip for next time.

Caleb chuckled at that and so did the rest of the part and John looked even more annoyed.

After the snickering died down Marcus walked over to John and both of them comically huddled together with the other 3 party members looking seemingly used to it .

Caleb looked towards the old lady with eyes conveying an apology and was returned with a smile

” how the fuck did he do that” “How the fuck should i know ” “Your the sneaky one “Marcus & John looked blankly at Caleb who returned a smile

and turned to each other and nodded

“Your in ” Both of them said in harmonious choir

Lela looked like she wanted to protest but her mouth was covered by Rea and Ellie
