The small man takes off his long coat and wraps it arround the sword inside then ties it off with the belt of the coat.
"Hopefully that should be enough." he says as he places it on the table and returns to his origional location watching the others quietly. "Really William, I had no idea you cared," Derek said stepping away from Sloan and towards the new comer. "I'm Derek Rayne," he said. "Though it's probably not obvious at the moment this is my home. Please have a seat." "I'm not," Sloan quipped quietly and with a crooked kind of gring "But Jonathan would kill me for letting blood get on this carpet, and even I know I wouldn't want to answer to Julia if you were to get pricked." He sat in a chair that was near the sword and at an angle where, if necessary, he could put himself in the way in case the man decided he did want to use the blade. Aside from that, he let Derek call the shots. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! - Official partner of 2002 FIFA World Cup http://fifaworldcup.yahoo.com
