Ghost Arrow followed the group from rooftop to rooftop, making sure to keep out of sight as he did so.
"Damn it," he thought to himself. "It's like a damn party or something here. No sooner had the pompous windbag and his retinue left the scene, another two roguish types turn up. No chance of getting close to her now..." Ghost Arrow grumbled as he saw the group head on inside the hideout. "What to do... what to do... could just fire the damn thing into their door and have done with it, I'm sure they'll pop out at some point." He pulled a playing card out of his breast pocket and twirled it between his fingers. "Hmmm...."

Doc looked over the injured man as he stirred, "Hmm.." Doc shook his head, "Seems this one has a fair constitution after all. Certainly more than he should for someone in such a delicate position."
"Please avoid giving the patient with life threatening wounds an additional head injury to worry about. If he wakes up and is violent, just hold him in place and I can sedate him again. There isn't any need for all this whacking business."
Doc looked up at the newcomers. Instantly recognising Elysia. "Wonderful... this could be coincidence... but somehow." Doc as usual spoke his thoughts out loud in a rambling manner. Doc pondered his own thoughts for a while. He didn't really like the idea that something was pulling the strings here.
"Still not as coincidental as it would be if I had been the one who had her invitation, that would be a little too fortuitous." With Doc's thought only just complete a loud "Thwack" of an arrow being shot into the door of the hideout rang out." Doc grinned, sighed and shook his head. "Miss noble lady, I think that is for you."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After putting the card and a note bearing Elysia's name into a small silk bag, and tying it to an arrow, Ghost Arrow let it loose straight into the door of the hideout. "There, that'll have to do, haven't the time to wait around all day for her to be on her own. Could be days, weeks, months even." Ghost arrow whistled as he slipped into the shadows and headed away. "Glad the Doc wasn't here to witness this, would have never been able to live it down."
