"You must be the most brazen person that I have ever met. I love it!" Laughed Sasha.

"You're wierd. What do you want and how can I help you."

"I would like to hire you for an adventuring team I am planing to build. We would take on dangerious request for plenty of gold. Also glory but mainly gold!"

Looking at the girl with a raised eyebrow sasha smirked and rubed her fingers together.

Teamasa looks around and says that she wants spellbooks and corpuses. Stronger the better if we can manage it. I also want to kill some ogres for experminting purposes.

Will also need a place away from the city for obvious reasons and anything else that we can recover from powerful monsters up to and including hydras and whatever else we can come across. Powerful humanoid bodies if we can get our hands on them and I want to be a vampire, no reason, I just want to be a vampire.

"That's quite the list of demands you got there. Is there really no reason that you want to be a vampire? Not judging because I am going to probably become a devil after I die, so you know, no judgment from me."

"Does that mean that you are unwilling to meet my requirements?"

"Not at all, the humanoid bodies will be difficult but not impossible to get. What are you going to do with them anyway. Are you going to just reanimate them or try to find out how they tick?"

"I want them for both really, you know how people that amass power like wizards do with magic have more magically charged bodies and fighters have stronger bodies. I want to find out how that happens and why it happens so that I can apply it to anybody I wish."

"You mentioned being a warlock so how would you like your body to be as powerful as a dragons and as strong as a giants?"

"I must admit that that sounds great, why isn't everyone working on that?"

"Most just accept it as the way of things and never try to find out more about it. I just want to know everything and had the chance to cut apart a Dragon Night once. Don't ask where I got the body and I will not lie to you. So am I in?"

"Sure, you wouldn't happen to know where we could find a alchemist or atrificer and a warlock would you."

"Maybe but why a warlock when you are one. Is it a secret for some reason?"

Wondering how much to divulge Sasha stated "I am a Paladin of the Broken Chains and ironically they do not take to kindly of people that break the chains that bind them to the order. Don't tell anyone and we should be able to avoid the worst of the problems that are going to come our way."

"That's cool so I do not know about the warlock but I do know an alchemist that dabbles in artificing for potion delevery. They are a combat alchemist and specialize in war and battle. Very dangerious and useful for taking on large groups but no one will work with him so he is forced to be second string."

"Where can we find him! You lead and I will follow."

'This pace looks interesting, I wonder what kind of mad bloke lives here. Bet it is our destructive friend, wonder if I am suposed to knock or something, nope just stroll on in got it Tea.'

Walking into the alchemist shop Sasha is imedantly aware that fighting in here would be the stupidest thing that she could ever precieve of. She would have a better chance of living if she walkied up the the dragonlord of the city and socked him right in the nose. At least then she would only have to worry about escaping a pissed off dragon and not whatever hell this place would unleash.

'OK I know that I take poison to far sometimes but that would wipe out the entire city in about twelve minutes. That one is acidic and would melt my armour like it was nothing. That could burn down the city in an hour. That can regrow hair, huh, why hair?'

"Hay mister goblin man, why would this potion regrow hair if you do not have any. What would you need it for."

A five foot tall goblin turns and says, "Old men like to look young so I can make it for cheap and sell it for plenty of gold."

"Got to admire your business sense that is for sure. Want to have a chance at getting rare ingreadents fresh, it will help you improve."

"I'm in, need to test some alchemist fire anyways. When will we head our?"

"After I get everyone. Still looking for a warlock and thief, maybe a healer to go along with it."

"Send a runner when you get things together and I will head on over with my kit."

"No problem, can we get some healing potions when you do come. Can never have enough healing when things go south."

"Of course I will discount it from the fee for the request that I will have to pay. Always make the destructive goblin pay more. Rude I tell you. Just rude!"

'Even if he is a weirdo he has some good poisons. I would like to know how he made that one, seems like the one I made but more potent. Be good to use coating a dagger for a theif or a rogue, it would make for a rather deadly backstab.'

"Thank you miss, I never caught your name." Said the irritated alchemist, "The reason that one is stronger is because of the snake venom that I used instead of water. Makes for a finer base though it is far harder to work with because of it."

"I was talking out loud wasn't I?"

Seeing the looks of the other two in the room Sasha new the answer without waiting for a response. She buried her head in her hands and apologized profusely for the insult. She did not want to cause the team to fracture before it even started.

Thinking quick on her feet to try and remove tension before it could build she asked about the poisons he worked with and offered to show him her mothers spell book. The thing that her mother had put so much effort into making right. Her last gift to her darling little daughter that she loved so much.

"Well now who ever wrote this had an eye for experimentation. They must have poisoned hundreds for the knowledge to be this concise. What ever happened to them?"

"It was my mother and she died in the war. She died hard but she died all the same non-the-less."

"Why didn't you say that you hade such a great book" Teamasa said. "I want to read every page of it, maybe I wll learn something that is not in any other book. This is priceless knowledge right here."

"I know and that is why I did not show it earlier, it is far to improtant to just show it to the first person that I come accros."

"So is all forgiven then. Are we good and quits right?"

"Yeah I will say that we are quits if I can read this book. What is the paper made out of?"

"Do not ask questions that you do not want the answer to."

Sometime later after they got throught oggling Sasha's mothers spell book they all decided to go to the adventures guild to look for work and get some drinks. The party was not yet at full strength but they could practice on somthing easy to get used to eachothers style. Wolves or something would be a good start for the three of them.

It would require precison instead of brute force and that suited the thee of them just fine. They planned to flush them out and bind them in the air while using potions to put them to sleep. Simple and not at all stupid a lot of plans that they had been involved in. It was using the brain instead of brawn to get the job done right the first time. Not like some people whom would just stand out in the opening and get ambushed by the wolves while hopeing they survived.
