"Wait a second. You don't actually think I'm working for them, do you?" His regular, confident look returned. "I'm a mercenary. I don't work for the hounds the government trains. I look out for me." His face turned serious. "I'm just like you. Abandoned by my own kind. Only differences being you specialized in magic, and I'm not 'evil.'"
The gears kept ticking in his head, trying to distract Veigar from the Scouts presence. "I know what it's like to be alone...a prisoner. I had cellmates, but they tried to kill me. I had to kill so many people to escape from that place..." His gaze became distant, his left arm began to tremble.
Core shook his head and snapped out of it, keeping his focus on Veigar.
Veigar was sure that the yordle was lying. After all, everyone knows about his isolation at Noxus, so, Invent a similar story was easy and the master of evil would not be fooled by things like that... He was an idiot thinking that someone could assist him, No one was like him. However, Veigar responds, avoiding the topic of his imprisonment
"Mercenary? HA!! Even if i hire you, you'll probably betray me if someone offers you something better!!"
The scouts, though specialized in ranged attacks, were well equipped and trained in their use of combat knives. As they deflected talon after talon, both slowly made their way over to a grouping of trees that would hopefully be too thick for the eagles to fly into, giving the two some cover.
The number of eagles attacking the scouts was lower now due the trees, but the birds seemed never tire. The great eagle in the sky was now in silence, watching.
"And you have every right to think that. But know this. The hounds didn't pay me a cent, and I came here out of my own free will. And I will prove to you that this is true. When I arrived I saw a third scout, a more official looking one, running back down the path. Chances are, he's bringing more Scouts with him. In other words, there will be a raid, and you will be taken down."
He lowered his left arm, his face still serious. "If you think I'm lying, then do as you wish. Death has been following me since I left that damn island anyways."
"I always liked to find trouble, but I never asked for this."

"Exelent... now i have to change the location of my lair" Veigar thought for himself. He grins and speaks confidently.
"They have no excuses to attack me, I haven't done anything evil lately... and if the scouts try to raid my Lair, the only thing that they will get is problems with ME and the League."
After saying that, the wizard makes a whistle and the great eagle makes with a loud chirp as reply, with that signal, the birds stop attacking the scouts and start to retreat.
"I am not going to run, If the stupid scouts annoy me I will make them suffer"
"Yeah, you haven't done anything bad lately, but you're still on their wanted list. Trying to steal the Mothership isn't exactly something that's forgivable."
'Rorik' noticed the birds flying back towards Veigar's base.
"So then what? You going to keep me in your little pen here? Did I 'fail' my test?" He said mockingly as he tossed a rock at one of the pillars that surrounded him.
"I always liked to find trouble, but I never asked for this."

Both scouts collapse with exhaustion when they realize the birds were leaving. Jerris had gotten a nasty gash along his chest, but luckily it wasn't lethal. His companion, Nevile, only had a couple of scratches on his shoulders and arms. The rest of the scouts found them soon, having followed the sounds of struggle. They assisted the two into proper resting places hidden among the brush and then made their way towards the lair of Veigar. They'd come for one purpose and one purpose only: to apprehend their target and bring him in.

'Rorik' noticed the birds flying back towards Veigar's base.
"So then what? You going to keep me in your LITTLE pen here? Did I 'fail' my test?" He said mockingly as he tossed a rock at one of the pillars that surrounded him.
When Veigar hear the word "Little", gets mad and calls a big mass of dark matter that destroy some trees. "SAY THAT AGAIN, AND THE NEXT TIME THE DARK MATTER WILL HIT YOU!"
Then, Veigar calms down and answers the question "... However, you haven't "failed" or "passed" the test yet, and if you "fail the test" i will kill you"
"Very well...and sorry about the unintended comment. Slip of the tongue." 'Rorik' crossed his arms and looked down the road. He hoped that those two Scouts were alright, and was curious if his mic was still working. He didn't dare check.
"You know, I would consider going into hiding. Those Scouts that your birds chased probably got seriously injured or killed. Them being attacked won't look too good for you. It's enough of a reason for them to bring you in." He turned back to the master of evil, tapping a finger on his arm.
"I always liked to find trouble, but I never asked for this."

He looks at the yordle and shakes his head. "You can hide if you want, but I AM THE MASTER OF EVIL and champion of the League, I'm not going to run of a few yordles...."
Then, Veigar realizes that he was still wearing the cheff clothes, and decides to enter his lair to change clothes and says. "Back in a minute, wait here"
After say that Veigar enters to his residence, in order to change his clothes. When he left, the "Event Horizon" lost his effect.

The four scouts and Bandle official arrive shortly after Veigar returns to his quarters. The official glances around and approaches the mercenary while two scouts move up against the front door and the other two find hiding places among the bushes and fallen trees. Delphine, the official, folds her arms and stares sternly at Core.
"You. I've seen you somewhere before... but nevermind that. What are you doing here?"
She takes a step closer and eyes the bandit curiously, tucking her hair back behind one ear casually for a moment to uncover her eye.
Core casually turned and looked at the official. His expression went from casual to a subtle shocked one. He knew this particular yordle, Delphine. They had a number of run-ins in the past, some of which resulted in an arrest.
"Well well..didn't expect to see you." He said to her, sporting a grin. "Anyways...why am I here? No reason, thought I'd do some exploring without a guide. After all, who needs a map, right?"
"I always liked to find trouble, but I never asked for this."

Delphine narrows her eyes and scoffs faintly.
"Hah. Very funny. Care to explain why you were in contact with two of my boys? I believe this belongs to you."
She holds out her hand to Core. In her palm was the receiver she'd plucked off of Jerris when they were assisting him a moment earlier.
"I don't know what you're up to... but we have a very serious matter on our hands. This happens to be a prime opportunity for us to capture Veigar and bring him in for questioning, possibly learn what happened to him in Noxus and figure out why he was driven so insane. If you have any information or ability to assist us, well... there may be something in it for you."
((P.S. I got a little further on your sketch, but I won't be able to work on it again for a couple of hours. Mom ran into some trouble that I have to help her with.))

Core took the receiver from Delphine and stuffed it back into his satchel. His thoughts went back to the two Scouts he met previously. He sighed a little as he looked back up at the official.
"Those two...are they alright?" His eyes held a sincere and worried look. He felt partially responsible for their injuries.
"And..there is a way I can help. Right now..Veigar is testing me. He's thinking on whether or not he should recruit me. I'm not against you guys, or him. But if I get in, I can give you any info they may be important."
Core looked over his shoulder back at the door for a moment, then back at Delphine.
[[Alrighty, thanks for the update. And take your time with it. ^^]]

Delphine furrows her brows, looking down for a moment in thought.
"Yes, those two are fine. Jerris had a pretty nasty laceration to his chest, but he should be alright. At any rate, our primary objective is taking Veigar into custody so he can be questioned by the captain, Teemo. You see, according to the captain they were somewhat friends once. He still holds a grudge against Veigar for what he's done to the city, but if it's possible for anyone to extract information from the mage hopefully Teemo can do it to prevent further cases of this. Particularly why Veigar was taken in the first place. Noxian diplomacy and defenses are both hard to get through, so if anyone gets taken by them, Bandle won't be able to get them out easily. If we can get Veigar to comply, which is... doubtful... then we might get a better understanding on how cases like his happen in the first place."

Veigar opens the doors of his lair and watch the scouts who were invading his territory. Stepping forward, the yordle begins to speak. "Why the useless scouts of Bandle are here? this is a PRIVATE ground, OUTSIDE of the LIMITS of Bandle City... YOU HAVE NO POWER HERE!"
The master of evil, grins at the last of the sentence, he knew that they could not hurt him, or league would punish all the Scouts of the Mothership, because attacking a champion for no reason, is a serious crime, no exceptions.

Delphine immediately flicks her eyes in Veigar's direction when he steps outside. She reaches into her pocket and pulls out a slip of paper, unrolling it in the process. When the wizard is done with his spiel she steps passed Core and holds the paper out in front of her, the bracelet on her wrist glinting in the sunlight.
"Veigar. Here I hold a warrant for your arrest, signed and documented. Will you agree to return with us to Bandle quietly to be questioned by the heads of our military branches, or will I be forced to use alternative means?"
What she said was more of a demand than a question, but either way she planned on taking Veigar with her. This was her mission, and she was going to get it done one way or another. After the events of today, along with those of previous occasions caused by the Master of Evil, she had every right to take him into custody for his crimes against Bandle City. He was just lucky none of her troops had been killed.
