Catelyn matched his pace, eventually catching the cafe in her vision. It looked like a dining establishment, similar to ones she'd seen on her visit to the city. No doubt was in her mind that her warriors were enjoying their time there waiting. Surely, they'd be fully indulging themselves in this different land. What was different was this wasn't near any other buildings, just plain in the middle of nowhere. "What do you do at a cafe? Order food?" Quite interesting really, the concept intrigued her.

Elise bowed gently and opened the door for the man and woman as they strode over, cheerfully greeting them. "Good morning, and welcome to The Heart and Soul Cafe!" It was somewhat difficult to avoid eavesdropping on a conversation as strange as the one they were having. Still, they were gone before the woman had the chance to hear much. With a small sigh, she checked the roads to see another group headed over. Tail curling, Elise waved her hand wildly in recognition.
Benjamin welcomed the two as they entered much the way Elise had, adding, "Will just the two of you be joining us today?" Several staff entered the area, and some continued through the waiting room into the smoking area. The majority of the staff had finished their meals, and were heading to their stations.

Jazilline spoke up first to Benjamin. "Yes, just the two of us, where ever will be fine." She said as Rave stood up and extended his hand to Jaziline who took it and pulled Rave down back into the seat as she stood up to follow Benjamin. Rave glowered for a moment before standing up and following behind Jaziline. "That was for the serpentine pattern..." she hissed as Rave chuckled.

Benjamin grinned his approval, and gathered what was needed for the two. "This way, please." With menus tucked underneath his arm, Benjamin headed into the non-smoking area. He chose an area near the wall that could be seen immediately upon entering the room, where they could choose chairs or booths. "Will you be staying with us tonight?"

Jaziline and Rave followed behind Benjamin choosing to sit in chairs where they sat while Benjamin spoke to them. "I suppose we could stay the night." Jaziline said as Rave leaned back in his chair. "Its not like we aren't ahead of schedule." Rave did a subtle scan of the area chesking for possible threats.

Setting the menus before each guest, Benjamin nodded his approval. "Very well. My name is Benjamin," Pulling a pad of paper and pen from his vest pocket, the man prepared himself. "Would you like to order your drinks now..er- my apologies, I do not believe I caught either of your names."

Jaziline opened the menu and began to read through the drinks, "I don't believe we gave them to you." She said letting the silence settle before Rave sighed. "I am Rave and this lovely person is Jaziline. I will have a cup of tea and she will have a glass of your strongest wine." He said feeling sorry for Benjamin, Jaziline being an umbraebella doesn't have people skills.

Apaichi smiled lightly. "Yes it is simply a place to go and order food and such." He walked up to the door and opened it for Cat.

Catelyn stopped. Not sure what he was doing. It took her a moment but she got the idea he was holding the door for her and she stepped right into the cafe. Immediately she felt a chill, a stark contrast to the temperature outside. The woman folded her arms, taking immediate notice of the peculiar staff. One was of the same race as her, something that somehow comforted her. Catelyn stepped to the side of doorway to allow Apaichi in next to her as she looked curiously around the room.

Apaichi made his way in looking at the staff then turning to look around the cafe. "How nice. He made his way to one of the bar stools and took a seat.

Catelyn would follow after him, taking a seat next to him at the bar. The woman continued to look around as Elise, the woman she noted earlier, stood before them on the other side of the table. The woman flashed her best smile at the two, "Hello! My name is Elise and I'll be serving you today, can I get you two anything to drink?" She would slide both Catelyn and Apaichi each a plastic menu to look over.
Catelyn's lips curled in uncertainty, her folded arms resting on the table. "Just a...water." The blonde unfolded her arms, staring at menu in further confusion. She knew not how to read, most, if not all of her clan members didn't either. Not wanting to appear dumb, Catelyn would just stick to the pictures.

Jaziline looked up from her menu to see the new comers as Benjamin, was stunned by Jaziline's rudeness. "Well I will get that for you." He said with a cheery smile as he walked away and Rave shook his head. "Two fighters are coming in." He said as Jaziline looked up at the cat lady and the man. "They seem confident and the woman seems unfamiliar. We should be fine." Rave nodded as he looked at the steak and Jaziline eyed the tomato bisque.

Arashi stepped out his cigarette before entering the cafe, taking a seat at a table besides the window to watch the rain as he awaited to order. He scanned the room noticing Apaichi and Catelyn but not wanting awkward contact he decided it would be best to avoid them. Then, his eyes landed on the two collectors he had taken interest in earlier, he sat and stared trying not to be too rude people were very volatile in this land he had learned.

"I will have have some eggs and toast, my friend would like some to." Apaichi said smiling. "And some coffee please." He added looking over at Jaziline and Rave, his eyes catching a glimpse of Arashi as he came in, he would look back to Jaziline and Rave once more before returning his attention to Cat. "The best way to get answers is to ask the waitress when she comes back." He said referring to the original reason they came here, Apaichi lied. He wasn't really hungry for food, it was more of adventure he craved.

Elise smiled and nodded her head, taking out her small pad of paper and quickly writing it down. "I'll be back soon with your water and coffee," She cheekily said as she finished her note and took off.
Catelyn set the menu down, though her eyes remained fixed on it. She nodded her head, understanding what Apaichi meant. Her cat ears twitched, the smells of cooking food filled her nose. While she wasn't particularly hungry, Catelyn wouldn't pass it up. For all she knew, the next time she ate could be quite awhile. The bake-neko didn't take paticular notice of anyone in the cafe, not even noticing Arashi. A soft sigh escaped from her as tore her head away from the menu, staring at the things along the wall on the other side of the bar table. Soon the waitress would come sweeping into her veiw, setting down Apaichi's coffee and Catelyn's water.
"Now would y'all happen to be staying her at our cafe tonight? We have lovely rooms here."
Catelyn shuffled in her seat, shaking her head. "No...I won't. Though I can't say for my companion..." She looked to Apaichi. After he gave his answer, she'd look back to the waitress. "I was wondering actually if you could tell us about the area.."

Apaichi shook his head to the waitress. "I appreciate the offer But my friend and I are on a tight schedule," He said before following up Cat's question. "And have you seen any other cat demon's like my friend here come in?"

"Other cats..." Her mind drifted back before she finally shook her head, "No...'fraid not."
Catelyn nodded her head, then drove straight to the point, "Are there any slave markets around here?" Vash and Catelyn had found two so far, mostly dealing in humans though. A single cat person like herself but it wasn't someone of her clan. Though, now they were. Catelyn had invited the cat to join their clan, and at the moment she resided with her warriors in one of the cities in this land.
The waitress, Elise, had to shake her head to the question. "But a lot more people have been passing by I'd say, coming north of here if that helps you any."
Catelyn smiled, "Thank you."
Elise would retreat from them, off to see if any other customers needed anything.

Rave looked up, "Third possible threat identify. Also we should have packed an umbrella." Rave said as Jaziline looked up catching Apaichi's eye. "Quite terrible. Good thing we are staying the night." She commented and then Rave added, "Anything to avoid Luci." And Jaziline nodded, "Amen." Soon Benjamin came by and brought them their tea and wine, and then took their order and menus.

Apachi stared at Cat. "So...where do you plan on going next?" "Also it seems that were not alone in here, were being watched. Let's see if any of them care to reveal themselves." A light aura began emitting from Apaichi.

Jaziline looked up at Apaichi, "I think he's threatening me." She said offended as Rave sat adding sugar to his tea. "Your probably over reacting." He said as Jaziline shook his head, "He is shining his aura at me." Jaziline said pushing herself from the table as Rave stirred the tea, "Maybe he dropped something at his feet and is trying to find it." He said as Jaziline moved to her feet. "Its like hes daring me." She said leaning over the table toward Rave. "I think you are looking to hard into it." He said leaning back and drinking his tea. As Jaziline pushed away from the table to walk up to Cat and Apachi. "I just really wanted to sit down and have a nice meal for once." Rave muttered as he continued to sit hoping Jaziline wasn't biting off more tha she can chew. "Hello I am Jaziline I noticed that you were watching myself and my associate." She said and rave raised a finger. "Not associate." He commented and Jaziline ignored him.
