Collection: Sage Eyes
The main series of Sage Eyes, the story of Simon and Tiffani.
Tiffani: ALL RIGHT, YOU CAUGHT ME.
I'M NOT JUST SOME ORDINARY PEASANT. MY NAME IS KATELYNN. MAYBE YOU'VE HEARD OF ME?
Woman: FROM SNAKE EYES?
Man: I THOUGHT SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE PRETTIER?
Tiffani: PRETTINESS IS MORE THAN LOOKS.
IT'S HOW YOU HOLD YOURSELF.
I CAN ACT LIKE A SHY, TIMID GIRL.
OR SOMEONE YOU CAN HARDLY
SNAKE EYES MIGHT BE GONE, BUT I'M NOT.
I MEAN, DID YOU REALLY THINK THEY COULD HOLD ME?
I WANTED TO KNOW IF YOU WERE WORTHY OF MY TALENTS.
Tiffani: I'M JUST A GIRL.
I WAS IN THE MARKET.
I OVERHEARD ONE OF YOUR THIEVES TALKING ABOUT THE PRINCESS, AND I WAS CURIOUS.
WE ALL WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.
Man: DON'T YOU KNOW THAT CURIOSITY IS DANGEROUS?
YOU'D THINK
SOMEONE WITH THIS KIND OF DRESS WOULD KNOW BETTER.
BUT IF YOU'RE
WILLING TO GIVE IT TO US, WE MIGHT LET YOU FREE...
AFTER YOU'VE PAID THE PRICE. HEH.
Ria: HEY!
Simon: DID YOU SEE WHERE THE PINK WOMAN WENT?
Ria: SHE FOLLOWED THE PANTHERS.
MMMM.
WANT ME TO TAKE YOU TO THEIR HIDEOUT?
Simon: LET'S GO.
Man: WHO ARE YOU? WHY WERE YOU SPYING ON US?
Ria: HI, SIMON.
Simon: HEY, RIA.
Ria: HOW'S IT GOING?
Simon: GOOD.
Ria: BYE, SIMON.
Simon: NOT SO FAST.
YOU'LL NEVER BE A MASTER THIEF IF YOU STEAL LIKE THAT.
Ria: I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW I STOLE THIS FROM A WOMAN IN AN EXPENSIVE PINK DRESS.
...ALTHOUGH I THOUGHT SHE WAS RICHER.
Simon: PINK DRESS...
Gurgle
Shiara: I HAVE SOME FRUIT IFYOU'D LIKE IT.
Simon: NO THANKS.
I'LL...GO BUY SOMETHING.
Shiara: WAIT. I WILL LOOK FOR TIFFANI. IT'S STRANGE SHE AND MERO ARE NOT BACK YET. I HOPE SHE'S NOT LOST.
Simon: YEAH, STRANGE...
Shiara: I CAN FOLLOW HER SCENT TO HER JOB AND THEN FROM THERE.
Simon: AND I'LL SEE IF SHE'S AT THE MARKET.
Knock!
Woman: WHAT'S THE PASSWORD?
Man: OH, COME ON, GWEN, IT'S ME!
Gwen: ALL THE THIEF GANGS HAVE A PASSWORD.
NOW SAY IT!
Man: FINE. MEOW MEOW.
Gwen: HOW DO YOU LIKE MY PANTHER HOODS?
Man: DON'T THEY GIVE US AWAY?
Gwen: OUR ENEMIES WILL QUIVER IN FEAR EACH TIME THEY SEE US!
Man: SOMEHOW, I DOUBT THAT.
Man 2: SO, WHAT'S YOUR REPORT?
Man: LORD GREIN GAVE US THIS FOR THE INFO ABOUT TACOBA. I TOLD HIS SERVANT THAT HE WOULD HAVE TO PAY MORE TO KNOW MORE.
Gwen: WHAT IF HE DOES PAY? WHAT DO WE TELL HIM? WE DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ELSE.
Man: RELAX. WE TELL HIM WHAT HE WANTS TO HEAR. THE PRINCESS KILLED HER FATHER TO TAKE OVER THE KINGDOM.
SHE'LL KILL ANYONE WHO GETS IN HER WAY, SO HE'LL HAVE TO CHOOSE WHETHER HE WANTS TO SUPPORT HER.
Tiffani: THESE FOOLS DON'T KNOW ANYTHING.
Man 3: HEY!
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
Tiffani: UH...
MEOW MEOW?
Man: YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THE PRINCESS? FINE.
MY SOURCES TELL ME THAT SHE'S VISITED SOME OF THE NOBLES, LIKE TACOBA, WITH PROPOSALS FOR AN ALLIANCE.
IF SHE CAN BE RESTORED TO THE THRONE, SHE'LL REWARD HER SUPPORTERS WHILE PUNISHING HER ENEMIES.
Shelly: LORD GREIN HASN'T BEEN CONTACTED. DOES THAT MEAN SHE CONSIDERS HIM AN ENEMY?
Man: WE KNOW WHERE SHE IS HIDING AND WILL HAVE HER IN OUR CUSTODY SOON. FOR A FEE, WE COULD SET UP A MEETING.
Shelly: NOT UNTIL YOU ACTUALLY HAVE HER.
ANYTHING ELSE?
Man: WE KNOW HOW THE KING REALLY DIED. BUT THAT COSTS EXTRA.
Shelly: MY LORD HAS BEEN GENEROUS. SURELY YOU COULD TELL ME? HE'LL BE ANGRY WITH ME IF NOT.
Man: NOT MY PROBLEM. TELL HIM TO COME BACK WITH MORE IF HE WANTS TO KNOW.
Man: HMPH. NOW THAT SNAKE EYES IS GONE, GREIN AND THE OTHERS WILL BE PAYING US PANTHERS.
TIffani: WHAT MIGHT HE KNOW ABOUT MY PARENTS' DEATHS? AND HAS HE REALLY BEEN WATCHING ME?
Man: CARE FOR SOME OF OUR FINE FRUIT, LITTLE LADY?
Shelly: I CAME ON BEHALF OF LORD GREIN. I BELIEVE YOU HAVE INFORMATION FOR HIM?
Man: PERHAPS. BUT WHY DIDN'T HE COME HIMSELF?
Shelly: HE'S NOT GOING TO RISK HIS PERSON WITH THIEVES LIKE YOU.
Man: SO HE SENT SOMEONE DISPOSABLE?
Shelly: JUST GIVE ME THE INFORMATION ABOUT THE PRINCESS AND I'LL GIVE YOU THE MONEY.
Man: OUT OF THE WAY!
Shelly: LORD GREIN, CAN YOU COME OUT A MOMENT TO SEE SOMEONE?
Grein: I TOLD YOU, THEY WILL BE AT THE FRUIT STAND. NOW LEAVE ME IN PEACE, GIRL.
Tiffani: LORD GREIN?!
I CAN'T LET HIM SEE ME!
Shelly: WAIT, ROSE!
Tiffani: WHAT CAN I EVEN BUY WITH THIS?
BREAD, I SUPPOSE. NO MORE EATING STOLEN FOOD.
Tiffani: I DON'T HAVE... MY MONEY'S GONE! YOU WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO...?
Woman: I CAN'T AFFORD TO GIVE AWAY FREE BREAD TO ANYONE WHO CLAIMS TO HAVE NO MONEY. YOU DON'T EXACTLY LOOK POOR, ANYWAY.
Tiffani: STOP JUDGING ME BY MY DRESS!
