Mange square was...deserted, well. Of its inhabitants at least, at least a dozen beings wearing the offical seal of the Sweetwater military were combing through the streets. Turning over carts, poking through haybails, all in search of one beings. They had been at it for hours now, but they couldn't stop. Not while he was still on the loose. Standing rather idly off to the side was a Gecko, leaning on his spear as he takes a break and starts scratching at his cheek.

With a lovely hand crossbow strapped to his arm, in case of emergency of course, Dio strides into the mange square after hearing tell of a murderer on the loose. He takes note of all the guards, wondering just where the killer could've gotten off to. Perhaps instead of hiding, he could be in plain sight! Noticing someone not doing a whole lot, Dio waves to the gecko and approaches him with a smile. "'ello lad," he says, trying to get his attention. "Strange business goin' on I 'ear?"

Sveta has arrived in response to the call put forth, having had the luck to just have today off. She gives Dio a slightly deeper bob of her head as usual as she approaches the gecko, who looks the best to ask - what with being mostly inactive being in this mess of activity. "Oh, hello Dio. And yes. What's all this business about a murderer?" She looks about. "Must be a pretty important fellow, by the looks of it."

Meyna is standing off to the side, watching the proceeds. She slowly creeps forward, nearing one of the guards, hands away from her paired pistols. "Uh, hi, hello there. You guys, uh, looking for someone or did someone lose a monocle? If it's someone gone, is there a reward?" she's trying not to make it as obvious. For once.

Arimia makes her way through the square, scowl on her features. She looks around then makes her way over to Meyna. When she speaks she does so loud enough that the various military folk can easily overhear. "They're lookin' for an' escaped prisoner. So yeah, there's a reward. But they're goin' about it in the most stupid way possible. They ain't ever gonna find him this way. Mange square has too many places to hide, an' ain't nobody here that willin' to talk to officials 'bout such things."

The bored Gecko nearly jumps as both Dio and Sveta greet him, and he lifts his helmet to give them a grim look. "A'yep, Seems that a rather deranged killer got away from the guard. A porcupine going by the name of Klaus....hold on." He fiddles with his spear, switching it over to his left hand so he can dig into his pocket and pull out a folded piece of paper. "Aahhhh lets see, from what we know he's a skinny little bastard who's a little above average height. Wanted for eight counts of murder, twelve counts of Theivery, six counts of Arson, and three counts of conspiracy to commit murder." He shivers a little bit as he puts the paper away. "The guy targets felines, doesn't care for gender or age." He shrugs, and looks to Sveta and Dio. "Still up for this?" The rest of the guard turns to look at Arimia and Meyna, giving them a glare before a few go back to work. "What, are you saying you can do better?" Comments a rather young looking bull, his horns still not yet to full size as he glares at the Raccoon.

"Good afternoon lass," Dio returns after Sveta addresses him. "An' you two as well." After giving the two new arrivals a wave, he returns his focus back to the gecko, listening intently at the grizzly information. "Felines?" The lion looks at himself, and then at Meyna. "But what kind of..." The smile he wore began to vanish, now becoming rather serious for the typically silly lion. "Alright, I won' let his murder count go one higher! Let's get to searchin' an all that!" Dio slams his fist into his other open palm, looking vibrant and alive as ever, a fiery whirlwind of emotion and pure passion!

Sveta ignores the byplay, although she acknowledges Meyna and Arimia's presence with a small nod. She's here to do a job, after all, but..."So, up to it, my dear Lion of Great...something or the other? I take it you're not unfamiliar with people trying to kill you, so you shouldn't be worried, right?" Well, he definitely doesn't seem worried, and she turns to the gecko.
