Queen Isabella:
I pursed my lips as I discovered what was going on. The guards at every turn were a dead give away. Cornelius had made this decision without me, a decision I would have objected to, but I still wished he had consulted with me prior to sending these guards crawling around our palace.
Gathering the blue skirt of my dress into my hand, I hurried towards the most likely place Cornelius would be. Before reaching the room, I actually ran into him in the hallway.
Cornelius' eyes looked a mixture of guilt and accomplishment when he noticed it was me. Unpursing my lips, I reached for his hands and took them in mine, getting close to him so no one else could hear.
Looking up at his strong face and into his clear gray eyes, I said in an even more hushed than usual voice, "Cornelius..."
Taylor:
My brown satchel on my back, I scanned the crowd. Amongst the group of people in the market, there were few people with Redward's description. But what made him easier to find was the fact that he was looking at the criminal list, which of course he wasn't doing undiscretley, but I had the list my self, so it looked familiar.
Confidentally, I pushed my way through people, recieving dirty looks, towards him. I knew odds were he'd be against working with a female, but working with him wouldn't exactly be a picnic. But at least he gets things done from what I've heard.
Finally, I reached him. When he didn't look up, I offered my hand and said confidentally, "Taylor Morning, your partner. You're Redward Winsal, correct?"
Without waiting for a response, I continued, "So, we will be going for the higher numbers. I like big game, and from what I've heard, you do too."
For a moment, he squinted at me, looked me over, then finally asked, "How old are you again?"
I waved him off and replied, "Irrelevant. All that matters is that I'm strong, I can fight, I'm fast, and I'm smart. My age and gender have nothing to do with anything. Now," Taking out my papers I continued, "I suggest we get a move on it, because if we want the big game, we gotta get started before everyone else."
*Too pushy? If so, just say so and I'll change it. This is just how Taylor is. If you want to add in comments here and there, feel free.*
