Things go smoothly?

Not quite...

(Note: The first split path is here, but until I finish the first path I won't come back to continue it. If anyone wants to write any alternate paths feel free. :P)

The inside of the Adventurer's guild was far more interesting than the rather plain wood and stone exterior. It was all made up of exotic looking, strangely hued woods and almost every surface was covered in trophies and strange pieces of creatures and plants. The main guild hall was at least half of the entire structure and was made up of a single room, each different floor had a gigantic hole in the middle, making it appear sort of like a medieval shopping mall minus the escalators and modern societal trappings. At the far end were several windows built into a long counter and behind each stood a guild employee in uniform. Most of the first floor seemed to consist of long tables and benches and hundereds of people at least sat at them with their parties, drinking and making merry.

Jack was flabberghasted at the sheer amount of different races and alien items on display, and Avendra had to snap her fingers right in front of his eyes to snap him out of it. "You really are not from around here are you?" She asked in amusement as he tore his gaze away from the spectacle to look into her eyes. "Anyhow, stay here for a moment and try not to get into any trouble. I am going to go find someone to get you registered." With that said she sauntered off, leaving jack feeling quite **** and really out of place in the raucous hall. He had to quickly move to a table when a large party barged past him, nearly stampeeding right over him, and he took an empty seat near a small human girl.

The girl turned shyly from the book she had been reading, to peek at him from under the wide brim of her almost comically large green, pointed hat. Her eyes were a light leaf green, and her nose small and pointed cutely. Lips the color of cherry blossom and a light blush across her cheeks combined to give her an incredibly innocent and adorable expression. Her bangs were sideswept and the rest of her brown bob of hair was a dark and straight. She turned bright pink when she caught Jack looking right back at her and whipped her head back round to her book, smoothing down the mid-length fluffy white dress she wore in nervous habit. Over top of the dress she wore a leather sleeveless vest and underneath her dainty legs were covered by thigh-high black stockings and boots that looked a bit too big for her. All in all, Jack thought, she was incredibly adorable.

After a bit of an awkward silence where Jack sat unsure of how to talk to the girl, he heard the pounding of thick boots on wood behind them and turned. As he turned a massive leather clad fist shot past his head and caused him to jump back a bit on the wooden bench. The hand belonged to a massive, heavily muscled and grizzled orc man, whose green skin and fangs, and chainmail over a set of leather armor completed the image to make him look very intimidating. The man however hadn't even looked at Jack, instead his gloved hand closed around a staff he hadn't seen when he was looking the girl over. The staff probably would have come up to his hip and was curved in a half-circle at the top, the rich wood wood curling around a floating blue crystal orb which seemed like perfect saphire marble. "Well well, nice lookin' staff you have ere eh girly? I think I might see how much its worth haha!"

She turned quickly, and gave a terrified squeek when she saw the massive orc, her eyes widening in barely supressed terror. The orc grinned evily, holding the staff far above the girl's head. This lasted a couple of seconds until she stood shakily and tried to jump for the staff, clutching for it like her life depended on it, causing her modest breasts to jiggle under the dress each time. "P-please! Give... Give it b-back to me p-please..." She pleaded, tears starting to slip down her cheeks. The man just cackled and held the thing higher, leering down at her lasciviously. The scene filled Jack with rage, but he wasn't sure there was anything he could do against the monstrous adventurer even with his new body...

Does Jack take action?
