Rikki awoke from her slumber underneath the rock by the stream when her sensitive ears caught the sound of someone trudging through the high grass. She sat up and listened intensively.

It was without doubt footsteps and not from an animal. She shuddered at the thought that the Dark Brotherhood's lackeys had already found her. As the steps came closer and closer, she became more and more anxious.

When the steps were right outside her hideout, she lunged for the exit and darted past the person. "Not today!" she yelled. "Khajiit is leaving!"

"Son of a bitch!" cried an assassin. "She is getting away! Someone shoot her!"

It was first by then that Rikki became aware that there wasn't only one, but several assassins chasing after her.

Stupid Maven spared no expense, did she now?

Bolts flew past her sight.

Crossbows?!

She then felt a stinging pain in her right leg and collapsed headlong into the stream. She was struggling to hold herself above the water, but the fact that she had neither been an efficient swimmer and that something was stuck in the back of her leg kept her down.

She was carried off by stream while she heard the assassins curse loudly somewhere behind.

''It hurts... and Rikki has no idea of where she is going!''
