Shauna Vayne had eyed the two women as they responded to her words. Her head - and gaze - turned from Shyvana, to Quinn, to the rangers pet, and then off behind them.
"I was on a hunt. But it seems the prey may have already been dealt with." She responded, taking a few more steps closer to the clearing. "But then I saw this one, thrashing around like an infant." She said once more, her lips turning up into a smirk. "Sloppy, for a ranger such as yourself to allow it." Her eyes lingered upon Valor longer then the others.
The tip of a silver bolt shined as the light hit the tip just right.

"Oh, you hunt bandits now? I didn't think people like you liked to get your hands dirty with people." Quinn frowned, her fingers tightening against her arm. She had heard enough about the Night Hunter. Purging darkness and evil with silver bolts, taking out those who had fallen to the shadows. It was ironic really. She apparently thought that becoming one with the very thing her quarry hid in was her only option. Perhaps torches didn't exist in the city. The ranger shook her head, "I'm not here to babysit Shyvana."
Valor, on the other hand, remained perfectly quiet as Vayne stared at him. He gazed right back, his head tilted. Quinn knew he wanted to fly, but she flicked him a quick look that told him to stay for a little while longer. She then cleared her throat and continued. "Unless you're going to stand here to patronize us a little longer, I have other things to worry about. If you have any complaints with how I do things, kindly take it up with me later." Her voice lacked any sort of humorous uplift, but the dry bite was there.
"Oh, and I would prefer it if you didn't talk about Shyvana as if she cannot handle herself. My job is to make sure my people are safe." Quinn fixed a rather impassive eye onto Vayne's shadowed form. "Your job is... well, I don't know what your job is, but I doubt it includes following your fellows around." A wry smile breaks her otherwise neutral visage, "Unless, of course, my inability to do my job disappoints you, then by all means, continue. In the mean time..." She raises her arm and Valor flapped his way to perch on the thick leather glove. "... if I may take my leave, ma'am?"
Shyvana let out a growl at the Night Hunter, her hands clenched tighter around her gauntlets. "You hide away in the shadows like a coward while Quinn and I dealt with the bandits... and you have the audacity to mock us?" Shyvana narrowed her golden eyes, her lips parting to reveal her sharp teeth. "If you want a beast, I can damn well show you one." Shyvana then snarled, fire lighting on her gauntlets.

((Sorry for not posting, totally slipped my mind))
"Bandits? Hardly." Vayne scoffed. "Though they could have known the whereabouts of my real prey." She hummed afterwards, mostly ignoring Shyvana's challenge and threat. The half-dragon, while a fierce opponent... did not startle her in the slightest as she did to most others. Though the Night Hunter did respond to what she had said earlier.
"Mock? I nearly stated my opinion. You, Shyvana. Are much too loud. You would do poorly upon stealthy missions, surely the kind she partakes of. An assassin would be alerted immediately of your presence." She spoke, matter-of-factly.
"As for my Job, Quinn. I combat that which you and your others deem to ignore." The Night Hunter said, taking a few steps closer, then turned her head to the side, listening... and hearing a high pitched shrill carried upon the winds.

"So you're taking a simple stroll?" The high arch of her eyebrow remained where it was even as Shyvana's temper began to flare again. She didn't bother to calm her down, lest she give something else for Vayne to comment on. Who was being surprisingly talkative. Quinn did, however, listen closely as the Night Hunter began to turn her reprimands towards the half-dragon. Though there were many words on her tongue, she was wise enough to keep it to herself. Valor, on the other hand, had grown tired of this a long time ago and was no longer willing to sit around as two Demacians and a dragon fought amongst each other. He shuffled his feet once, then took off into the dark skies.
"That's a nice job, but it still doesn't mean you have to follow us around like a lost puppy," she said, somewhat ruefully. Before she could continue her oh-so mature comment, Vayne's subtle motion brought her own attention elsewhere. An unfamiliar screech had traveled through the air and her body tensed up habitually. "Valor," she murmured. Without another word, Quinn pivoted on her heel, her steps soft yet urgent as she vanished into the trees.
Shyvana narrowed her eyes at the hunter... the woman's arrogance was quickly getting on her nerves when another shriek caught her ears. "Damn it.. what now?" Shyvavan grumbled to herself before she quickly followed Quinn into the trees.

Vayne was going to respond to Quinn as her voice brought her attention back from the noise she heard. But would have frowned at the woman as she walked off into the treeline. She followed Shyvana with her eyes as she too, went after Quinn into the forest.
"I do wonder what that is." She spoke to herself, frowning at the thought of following the two. She did so, but at a slower and much more steady and cautious pace then the others. Many things had jumped out at Shauna Vayne before from the darkness. She was not as reckless as these two seemed to be. And even if they did find something, perhaps she would just sit back and observe for a time.

Quinn heard the trees rustle behind her as she imagined one half-dragon tearing through the trees after her. Had the villagers she had rescued been caught again? Her mind began to skip thoughts, images flashing one after the other as another shriek ripped through the forest. The first smell to hit her was the heavy scent of fog and her brow wrinkled as she quickened her pace. Valor was nowhere to be seen, but she wasn't bothered by his disappearance. He was capable of fending for himself. When a soft whisper reached her ears, she slowed down, a crackling of sparks breaking the otherwise quiet of the woods twisted in between the trees beyond. It sounded like murmurs and frantic babbling and there was something terribly wrong.
She saw a face flash in and out of sight, but caught sight of mapped wrinkles and skin matted and grey. She saw a knife and the soil around them carved into a strange symbol she could not quite make out. In the middle, a child was strapped to a crudely made stake and a mess of dry logs collapsed onto his legs and feet. The dagger was held to his neck as the figure continued to mutter at the gagged child. Quinn gripped her weapon hard, but knew she could not make any sudden movements. If Shyvana were to approach, she would turn and raise a finger to her lips, if only to stop the half-dragon from doing anything irrational.
Where the Night Hunter was, it did not cross her mind.

Vayne had followed behind the two silently. When she came across the fog, she instead veered off, coming about the same picture Quinn saw bu from a different perspective. She was behind the sorcerer.
Her crossbow raised and aimed steadily, her finger gently beginning to squeeze the trigger until a large blue shape nearby caught her attention. A Demacian bird... Valor. She rolled her eyes as the bird probably noticed her as well, her weapon lowering for the time being. She opted to observe for the time being, and move when the child wasn't in her line of fire.
Shyvana had been closely following the other Demacian woman, never straying too fare behind. When Quinn stopped and turned around, a finger to her lips; Shyvana narrowed her eyes slightly but did as suggested, kneeling down to peer through the forest silently.
