Those are free clothes and you won them fairly.

You had no scruples stealing from a thief. This girl's actions had **** you to abandon the only clothes you had and to run naked in crowded streets. At this time you were pretty sure you deserved those clothes more than she did.

You had to **** a little to get into the black pants and fumbled a lot before you could cover yourself with the red scarf that acted both as a hood and a bra.

Clothed better than you had been for hours and in possession of the stolen bag of gold you tried to think of where you had lost Nancy to retrace your steps.

"Halt, thief ! " shouted a loud voice behind you.

Thank to the gods it was a city guard, late as usual but it was good that they were there to take the thief in custody rather than to let her escape.

"Just what was described to us, we found them. A thief in red and black with a bag of stolen gold and a naked girl that was chasing her. " said the sergeant to the other two guards.

Just your luck, it looked like you were the thief and she was the victim now that you had taken her clothes.

"No, you have it all wrong. She stole from me and I just got the gold back, I just borrowed her clothes." you replied. "look we don't look alike at all, witnesses must have described us"

"well everyone was really distracted by that naked girl so all they saw of the thief was the colors she was wearing, the stranger thing is that with all eyes on her all people could say of the other one was that she was naked. I never saw so many people unable to describe someone. Anyway if you were the naked girl Where were your clothes to begin with? " asked the sergeant.

You had no good answer to that ready and we're struggling to find one. The spell you used to protect your identity had backfired no one could confirm that your were the naked girl because it was what you had wanted.

Another guard was checking on the thief and she was waking up.

" looks like she's alive, no **** today only theft and ****. " said the guard, draping the girl in his blue cape.

The third guard had grabbed your arms and was cuffing you behind your back.

" Here lady, we caught the thief. Take this gold back. Will you be able to go home alone? " asked the sergeant to the thief.

She was quick on the uptake, grabbing the purse and thanking him.

" Thank you officer, I live nearby. I'll go home quickly to put some clothes on. No need to charge her for **** by the way. Funny thing I just slipped on the floor and hit my head. " she declared before running off.

" Stop her, this is a mistake. She stole from me and I only put her clothes because I was naked . She's the thief, not me!" you screamed at the guards.

"Roland, gag her we'll clear this out at the precinct. " ordered the officer.

The guard that cuffed you put a large leather bit I your mouth, you preferred not to think about how many times it had been used and on who, nor about how often it was washed if ever.

Bound and gagged, out of magic and wearing a skimpy outfit you were dragged towards the precinct where a cell was waiting for you.

You had to figure out how to get away from this situation and if you were ready to give your real name. The guards would either record you as a thief or as having streaked a crowded street naked in broad daylight.

On top of that neither Nancy nor lady Formosa would be glad about this or your having lost the gold.
