Jude and the elf twins had been walking around for quite a while now trying to see if they could find anything that would lead them to Tania.
They've tried asking people about her but none of the people they asked seemed to know what they were talking about.
The reason why none of the people currently in the city knew anything about what they were saying was that Tania and Leo were kept hidden from the outside world and the only people who knew who they really were were Bryan, Layla, and Chloe.
They were also beginning to get unwanted attention again and the reason for that was the bow and arrow the elf twins had on their backs.
The elf twins didn't like the idea of being weaponless no matter where they were and that was the reason why they had bought a bow and arrow with Jude's funds of course.
"I told you guys carrying your bow and arrows around like this wasn't a good idea," Jude said as soon as they entered a more quiet street.
"What if someone comes out of nowhere to attack us, we have to have something to defend ourselves with," Tuchel said.
"Which is why I suggested that you take the daggers instead, no one will even know you're with a weapon," Jude said.
"I don't know how to use a dagger and besides that, a dagger is only used as a secondary weapon," Tuchel said.
"Look around Tuchel, does it look like you're on a battlefield?" Jude asked, looking around. "None of these people are holding weapons like you two and they are probably wondering why you have weapons with you."
"A battlefield was once a non-battlefield," Tuchel said.
"I don't think you get my point," Jude said.
"Will you two just cut it out?" Tauriel said, stepping in between the two. "Jude's right."
"He is," Tuchel said with a surprised look on his face.
"Yeah, can't you see the way they look at us when we walk past them? Some with fear, some with surprise, a few with amusement." Tauriel said. "They are probably wondering where are these people from?"
"So what are you saying?" Tuchel asked.
"Let's just find a place to keep the weapons and focus on finding Tania," Tauriel said.
"Ok, and where do you think we are going to keep them?" Tuchel asked.
Tauriel was about to answer that question but she was interrupted by the engine sound of the police vehicle which had just pulled up in front of them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe three kept their gaze on the vehicle as the doors opened for three police officers to come out.
The one who happened to be their leader was the one in front as they approached Jude and the elf twins.
"Detective Cooper, LCPD." The detective said, showing them his Id.
"Okay, what can we do for you?" Jude asked, sounding as polite as he could.
"We've gotten multiple reports of people moving around the city with bows and arrows asking questions about a girl and I guess it wasn't a false alarm." The detective said nodding towards the two elves behind him.
"Oh, they were just about to put those away," Jude said, forcing a smile.
"I'm afraid that won't be necessary now, we are going to have to bring you to the station to answer a few questions." Detective Cooper said.
"The station, what's that?" Tuchel asked with a confused expression on his face.
"Get them." Detective Cooper said to the two officers standing beside him.
"Don't you dare?" Tauriel had quickly fitted two arrows in her bow as soon as the two officers had taken two steps close to them.
"What are you doing Tauriel, this is certainly not the way to handle things?" Jude muttered to Tauriel as he didn't like where things were going.
"I know but can't you see they are trying to capture us?" Tauriel said.
"Young lady, put down the bow and arrow, we do not want to hurt you." Detective Cooper said, trying to calm things down.
"Don't you dare come any closer to us, I am a master archer and I can end the both of you with these arrows right now?" Tauriel said.
"Oh, and how many people have you murdered so far?" Detective Cooper asked.
"I am not a murderer," Tauriel said. "I am just telling you what I can do so you don't make a mistake."
"Officers, get the other two, I'll deal with her." Detective Cooper said.
As soon as the detective had said that, the officers had quickly rushed forward as Tauriel sent both of the arrows in her bow flying toward them.
She expected the arrows to hit them but that didn't happen as shields had quickly appeared in their hands and they had used them to block both arrows.
"Where did those come from?" Tuchel said with a shocked expression on his face.
That was the distraction detective Cooper needed as he quickly rushed towards Tauriel and pulled her down before she could fit another arrow in her bow.
Shield appearing in the officers' hands wasn't the only thing for Tuchel to get shocked at as spears had also appeared in the officer's hands.
"I didn't know there was magic in this world," Tuchel said as he quickly pulled out his bow from his back and used it to block the spear that was about to hit him.
"You just arrived here, how are you supposed to know?" Jude said as he avoided the spear slashing down at him before trying to kick the officer but he had blocked his leg with his shield.
The officers were good in combat but Tuchel was a highly trained elf while Jude just finished knight school so they weren't having any trouble handling them.
"This is what I have been avoiding since I arrived here," Jude said as he ducked to avoid the spear that was swung at him before using a sliding kick to knock down the officer and finishing him off with a punch to the face.
Tuchel on the other hand had gotten frustrated by how the officer was blocking his attacks with his shield.

Tauriel was the only person who was having a problem, her bow had gotten knocked off her hand and she was having a a problem keeping up with detective Cooper who was way better than her when it came to physical combat.
She tried to punch him as he closed up on her but he quickly grabbed her arm and sent a knee kick down her stomach.
"Arghhhh!!" Tauriel groaned as he lifted her up and slammed her to the ground.
The detective had her pinned on the ground but she wasn't giving up yet as she was trying to wriggle free from his hold.
"Since you won't come peacefully with us, then we will have to do it the hard way." The detective said.
"Get off me!" Tauriel yelled trying to break free from him.
"Tauriel." Jude gasped as he quickly turned to her.
He rushed to her and kicked detective Cooper off his body, he didn't stop there as he quickly rushed to the detective and pinned him against his police vehicle.
"What do you want from us?" The young knight asked.
"Your friends over there are violating a strict code of order by carrying weapons around in the city, I'm just doing my job." The detective said with muffled breathing.
"But we told you they were about to put the weapons away," Jude said.
"That's not the way things work here."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"That's enough." Jude heard a voice behind him as his hands were quickly pulled behind him and cuffed.
"Jude!" Tauriel yelled as she tried to get there but she was quickly stopped as her hands got pulled behind her and also got cuffed.
"You're not going anywhere," Layla said.
"Jude?" Said as soon as he heard what Tauriel had said.
"Thank you, Lieutenant." Detective Cooper said.
"Yeah that's my name, is it a strange name to have here?" Jude asked.
"No," Bryan said, shaking his head. "You're Tania's brother right?"
Jude couldn't believe what he just heard as he turned to Bryan with a stunned look on his face.
"How do you know my sister's name?" The young knight asked.
"I have been with your sister for quite a while now," Bryan said.
"She told you about me?"
"No, we got your message, the one you sent through the portal," Bryan said.
"You did?"
The young knight was quite surprised to hear that as he thought no one got the message since he never got a reply.
