Tesla, watching the scene unnoticed by about five feet away, took a drink. Already people were attempting to get up and leave the bar nonchalantly to avoid the fight that was about to ensue, if you could call it that. She'd seen this before; the guards would accuse the waitress of treason or some other bullshit like that and take her out back, where her screams would tell the end of the tale.
Lucky for the waitress, the messenger ship that intercepted Silence had told her that a particular captain who just happened to be favored by the king for a promotion would be here, at his usual spot, on this particular night; it was a habit. Unfortunately, he wouldn't be getting that promotion.
Tesla finished off her drink and stood up, kicking the chair over to get their attention.
"Pardon me, but I'm supposed to be getting something to eat. If you would be so kind as to avoid molesting the waitress until after I've been fed, then things will be a lot easier for you."
The group (there were about seven of them) stared at her with open mouths, which meant that she'd gotten their attention. She expected one or two of them to wave their fists at her and actually start the fight, but the captain stood up and motioned them to seat themselves before they could start the usual dialogue. This disquieted Tesla; he was smart.
s**t.

[[xD You don't know my name yet, silly!]]
At the captain's signal, the men let go of the waitress and backed behind the captain, showing obvious respect for their leader. How smart was this man she had been sent to kill? He took a step toward her and looked her up and down. "You are a fine woman", he said, "telling me and my men what to do. No doubt, though, that your purpose is more than simply putting my men in their place which, I'll admit, needed to be done." The captain glanced sideways at his soldiers, and looked back at her. His eyes seemed to penetrate her; she felt naked. "However, speaking out against the king's men is treasonous by itself. I'm going to have to ask you to stand down; you're under arrest."
He had to be kidding. Tesla shook off the strange feeling and chuckled; it would come to a public confrontation after all. "Pardon me, sir, but telling a group of numbskulls that any pretty Tengu is, in fact, not their plaything should be rewarded, I'm just protecting your citizens. The only interesting part about this situation is that I'm protecting them from YOU!"
She hit the buttons on her gauntlets and two blades, each a half-foot long, shot out, and she lunged at the captain.

*Cambia's initial reaction was to bolt and avoid the escalating scene. For some reason though she could not bring herself to get up and exit the stage.*
What the hell...
*She murmurer to herself. She was sick of these stupid knights. When the woman the Cambia had been watching stood and toppled her chair Cambia got ready to help. She slowly began changing her form from that of a normal human to more of a feline form. She grew a long tail to help her balance and some claws. Her newly tuned ears twitched at the sound of two blades coming from somewhere... Cambia even changed the properties of her eyes so that she could see everything clearer. She started to slink into a position where she could help the woman. She figured she would wait until the initial attack from one of the two parties to join into the brewing fight.*

[[I knew that....>.>]]
*Shuu runs behind the lady protecting her and flexes out her wings ready to fly at a moments notice.*
"....be careful..." sad

He must have anticipated her attack, because his arm was already at his sword hilt and he was drawing it out of its sheath. However, he had no way of knowing how fast she was which was why the sword never made it out before she collided with him, sinking her blade deep into the side of his armor, cutting through the steel and sinking an inch or two into his flesh. He grunted in pain and drew his sword out, slamming the pommel into Tesla's jaw. She jerked her blade out of his armor and round-house kicked him in the face before he had time to react. With lightning speed, she sliced his sword hand off with one blade and slit his throat with the other. He toppled lifeless to the ground.
She backed away, crimson blood dripping down her blades as she crossed them defensively in front of her.
"That's right... I'm who you should be worrying about. I'm The Assassin."
Tesla had been doing work like this for The Resistance for a few months now, and it was no mystery to the public that there was someone killing political figures and high-ranking members of the king's army. The public had dubbed her The Assassin, because nobody had known who she was or seen her face until now; she'd always carried out her orders in secret and was never seen. If she was to survive she'd have to kill everyone here, or she'd be on wanted posters all over the kingdom. That left The Tengu, a strange feline being who seemed to be staring her down, and a dozen or so soldiers. She'd start with the soldiers.
[[I figure once I realize you're on my side I won't mess with you :/ ]]

*Shuu stands back confused, why is this happening? How is it that this woman is fighting back, and winning at that?! Shuu is so entranced by the confusion of the moment she doesn't even worry about her own safety. Shuu slowly backs up towards the hooded girl sitting alone at her table, she backs up against the wall, watching* "......"

*The hooded female took a step back from the fight and looked over her shoulder. Looking back and hearing 'The assassin' she figured that she could handle things herself. Cambia Stepped around the Tengu girl and lowered her hood taking a fighting stance ready to pounce on one of the knights.*
'So your The Assassin.'
*Cambia nodded at her and took a few more careful steps forward so she was almost standing by The Assassin's side.*
'I'm Cambia. I'm the shapeshifter the some people are looking for. I admire what your doing for us and helping fight against these stupid pricks. What's your real name?'
*She was looking at The Assassin sideways, They were both wanted in this town. The Assassin for killing people, Cambia for being able to change shapes, the Kingdom wanted her to be an infiltrator. She had declined so now they hunted her as well. Cambia took a look at the Knights, there were about 6 left with their dead leaders blood leaking onto the floor.*
'I'll take out as many as I can.'
*She leaped towards the left side of the group tearing into the soft spots of the nearest Knight, he cried out breifly before his head with it's eyes wide was rolling on the floor. Cambia ducked as a knight tried to seperate her head from her body and gave him a low blow to his ribs before he managed to punch her left eye. Cambia hissed and shoved her hand into his side pulling out some of his innards. She gave a brief smile to The Assassin before moving onto the next Knight.*
[[Sorry, I hadn't checked it >.>'']]

*Shuu stares at the shape shifter woman and the gauntlet woman getting a little grossed out at all the blood and gore. She looks around noticing that there isn't anyone left, her boss was gone, the customers left to probably never come back, and she was all alone...again. Suddenly she felt a little lost and still confused. But she starts putting two and two together, these two are assassins from some place...and are standing up against the army men. She wishes she could be like them...*

Tesla nodded at Cambia, wondering if she could be trusted. She shifted into a more comfortable defensive stance, happy to at least have an ally for now.
"We can't leave any alive. If we do, it's our lives at stake; they'll tell the emperor. Do you understand?"
Without waiting for an answer she lunged forward, blades crossed in front of her, arms tensed like springs waiting to let loose their power.
