Esdeth looks at you clearly conflicted, unsure of what to say. "I... I would need time to think about that." She said. "This is something very serious you are asking of me, had you been anyone else I would never even consider it. I just need time to decide."

Sayo
"I understand, and I will give you that time. After all..." she said, smiling. "...Had it been anyone else... I wouldn't even have said any of it. I would not trust them to keep my secret. I took the chance with you... because you are the only person to ever make my heart beat this fast. I can't live within the Empire... but I don't know if I could live without you", she said to drive her last argument in. "If you do decide to join me... as soon as you know, please tell me, so I know I can open my heart to you and welcome you in my arms."
She lay down on the bed, her head on the pillow, hoping that Travis' perfume was as effective as he seemed to think it was, and that her words had been selected skillfully enough to take advantage of it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Renewing my stones to try and clear out her doubts with the promise of my love.

She curls up into you kissing you slowly her bare skin caressing your own everywhere she can move.

Sayo
The brunette played hard-to-get, moving slightly on her side, shaking her head.
"...P-Please... Esdeth-sama, I don't mind if you need time to think about it, but I can't return your love yet, if your decision isn't made... it would only harm us both. I will gladly continue at this point if you do decide to leave the Empire... but I can't before then." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ A final renewal of stones, to add the promise of her own willingness to participate in... a more intimate proximity... but only if Esdeth chooses to join her for good.

"As you wish." She said still holding you as she fell asleep.
The next morning you awaken to find Esdeth standing over you in a slightly different Yukata, her sword at her side. "Get washed and dressed soon dear. We are going Danger Beast hunting."
----------
Hours later you are riding in a wagon made of ice as Esdeth leads ice horses down a trail, the other Jaegers (save Phirra) on horses of their own.

(OOC: Has Sayo been given a weapon for the hunt? Oh, and also, what outfit is Sayo wearing for the hunt?)
Sayo
The brunette simply enjoyed the ride for now, wondering where this little ride was leading. On a positive note, she hadn't woken up in chains, which seemed to indicate that at the very least, Esdeth hadn't decided to force her to into the Empire regardless of her efforts from the night before. Whether she would come around to join her, however, remained to be seen.
"Are we hunting a specific type of beast?" the girl asked.

(Yes a simple +2 bow, a +1 knife, and +2 sword, and her basic work outfit.)
"We are simply hunting any beasts within a certain radius of the capital. The bigger, and nastier the better. We'll split into teams. Kurome, Wave, and McCain will accompany Sayo, and Myself. Bols, Seryu, Run, and Travis will go north. Phirra, Wukong, and Gloria will go east."
"Where the devil is Stylish?" Phirra asked.
"He said he was doing work on some special project." Travis said.

Sayo
"Fine by me", Sayo said, her bow at the ready. "You think I'm good at martial arts, wait until you see me use this", she said with a smile, keeping an eye out for Danger Beasts. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5 into Intelligence to look around for Danger Beasts.

You split along stopping among a heavy forest.
"Do you sense it Kurome?"
"Yes General." The dark haired assassin said taking another bite in a manner not unlike a certain red eyed killer.
"Wave, Kurome, Sayo... I will leave this fight to the three of you. I will only intervene as needed." She said.
Sure enough a massive scorpion with a snake head emerges from under the brush.

Sayo
"Got it", Sayo said with a nod... readying her bow when the cart stopped. When she saw the snake head, she immediately turned and shot at its eyes. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Start H: 7/7 P.L: 2/2 E: 33/33 P.L: 6/6
12 stones (Ef.) into Ranged Combat (Bows, Precise shots, Call shots) plus 3 from Targeting, +2 from bow, into a 13 stones attack... 4 to specifically target the snake's eyes.
8 into Acrobatics all into defense.
End E: 21/33 P.L: 2/6 Defense: 15 (4 Ref.Dodge, 3 [No 2x damage] Toughness, 8 actions) Mental Defense: 11 (5 Int, 6 Mental Defense)

You fire into it's eye making it scream in pain as Wave cuts off it's stinger, and Kurome impales it through the head. "Aww you ruined it, now I can't add it to my collection." She said.

Sayo
"Who, me?" Sayo asked, confused. "I was just blinding it..."

"I meant him... I could have taken him with the stinger intact, easy." She said.
"Dammit Kurome, can you stop that Necromancer s***, it gives me the damn creeps." McCain said. "Damn thing ain't even that strong if the rookie here could put arrow in it."
Kurome just ignored him, and returned.
"Something is wrong... This is not the monster I sensed." She said.
Just then a loud roar emerges as a Bear-Ape comes swinging through the trees straight for you. "Now that is more like it!" Esdeth said. "McCane, front lines! You're in this fight too!"

Sayo
"I meant him... I could have taken him with the stinger intact, easy."
"Dammit Kurome, can you stop that Necromancer s***, it gives me the damn creeps. Damn thing ain't even that strong if the rookie here could put arrow in it."
Sayo smiled. "...With all due respect, colonel, I was holding back on that shot."
"Something is wrong... This is not the monster I sensed."
Sayo kept her guard up, looking around... until the Bear-Ape attacked!
"Now that is more like it! McCane, front lines! You're in this fight too!"
Sayo put her bow away, drawing her sword, and moving to strike with the others... using teamwork if necessary. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Start H: 7/7 P.L: 2/2 E: 33/33 P.L: 6/6
1 stone into PL for an action;
shifting weapons between my bow and my Sword (using an action to do so quickly)
12 stones (Ef.) into Close Combat (Swords, Acrobatic fighting, Fighting larger opponents) plus 2 from my sword, 12 to attack the creature; 2 in control to work with the others to our advantage.
8 into Acrobatics all into defense.
End E: 21/33 P.L: 2/6 Defense: 15 (4 Ref.Dodge, 3 [No 2x damage] Toughness, 8 actions) Mental Defense: 11 (5 Int, 6 Mental Defense)

You wave through the beast's strikes with clawed hands. landing a slash on it alongside Kurome and Wave... as the later eats a strong paw from the beast sending him sailing back.
McCane attempts a downward slash only to be blocked by the monster. "Dammit. Kurome, Sayo. I need his arms distracted!"
