Without a second of hesitation, as if on pure instinct, Crovus drew his sword and unshouldered his shield. He spit out a firm and clear, but hushed command to Cen, "Sprint around the block and hold the alley from the other side in case they run. If they do not surrender, cut them down. I will wait long enough for you to get into position."
Into the alley Corvus stepped without another word, shield raised just to eye level so he could peer over the top.
[Exit Corvus]

Giving a stiff nod, Cen drew his sword.
"Yes sir!" He shouts, watching Corvus turn into the alleyway. He gave a snort and sheathed his sword before running to the palace in an evenly paced trot.
[Exit Cen]

Alex looks between Corvus and Cen, aware that Corvus was indeed an actual Solar Solider, and posed little threat, he chased after Cen. He wasn't completely sure if he was a spy, but he had a hunch. [Exit Alexander]

[Enter Alex] Planning to leave quickly, he paid no mind to the guards at the front and headed for the entrance to the Vierahm Forest. [Exit Alex]

[enter Cen]
Just one job of many. Can didn't ask questions, he just followed orders and did as he was told. He was good at his job, and he felt good about it.
Cen left the palace with a proud look on his face and went looking to see if Corvus died or not.

[Enter Corvus and his prisoner]
He walked along, holding fast to the female arrestee. They were heading towards to nearest law enforcement post. Corvus continued to keep a sharp eye out for any of her comrades who might try and free her from his custody.

Cen was already headed towards the front end of the alley, and since the closest Law enforcement post was near the palace; the two were bound to collide. When Cen saw Corvus, he gave a big wave, but did not smile.
"I lost them, sir!" He shouts out to Corvus from down the street. "One of them was a flyer! I tried to chase him, but the bastard fled Canterlot!"

"Come here and take hold of this prisoner!" He called back.
When Cen drew near, Corvus would look him over very carefully.

"Yes, sir!" Cen responds loyaly, walking over and taking the prisoner. He had some blood on his shoes, and was missing a jewel from his sword. Aside from that, and some sweat on his forehead, he looked pretty normal.

He relaxed some, stepping back a bit after Cen took hold of the female.
"What happened? I need to know what you saw and did for my report. In case you have not realized, it was some sort of ambush."

"Ambush? Really?" Cen asks, surprised. He holds the woman in place and thought a moment.
"I went around back like you asked. I saw an armed man waiting by the other end and called him. He ran and I gave chase. I took my weapon out and caught up to him before he got far. I buried my weapon in his back, then he flew off." He explains quickly.

Corvus started to walk, expected Cen to follow with the female.
"What did he look like?" He listened carefully, and paid keen attention to what was being said.

"Brown hair, tall, standard white cloth shirt -- and leather riding pants." Cen responds almost immediately, shoving the reluctant woman forward as he starts walking with her.

"What else? You said he was armed? Did he run before or after I yelled for help?"
Corvus walked with his back to the two. Blood was on the shoes, but not the arms or legs. The droplets looked as if they fell straight down, and not that they had been run into during a chase. There was no wind splatter at all. Cen was very calm at a time as a new soldier he should not be. For having run after a man and used a sword on him, Cen did not show the slightest sign of being out of breath or his uniform being askew. A suspect who could fly would not run of foot, and would certainly never be caught up on by a non-flyer wearing plate armor. He had taken much too long, and the area had been surrounded by the reprehending lawmen.
Since he first failed to display proper soldiering at the Command Post, Corvus had wondered about Cen.
Now, he was certain about him.
He did not know which of the two behind were worse; each pretended to be something they were not.

"Oh! He was armed, sir. And he ran after you called for help." Cen responds, walking now with the woman in front of him. He seemed oblivious to Corvus's suspicion, and rather calm in general. He knew if anything went down; he could beat down this Celestial-trained Zealot.
None can withstand the power of the Legion.
