Arrival
After a weeks of traveling....
Avilik trotted along on Stregar enjoying the plains that surrounded him DesertRose following carrying some packs. In the distance he could see antelope and gazelles playing games. In another direction some buffalo thundered along. They knew he was no threat to them and some of the antelope even came over to him. Smiling to them he gently scratched their necks and heads for them. Soon he came upon the bay's shore following it down he found the bustling city of Rivera on the harbor of the bay. He stood on the small hill rise looking down on it in all it's spender. How in the world will I find her in all that? he thought as he looked it over. Soon he rode Stregar down to the city gates with DesertRose in trail. As he came to the massive gates he was surprised to see only 2 guards. He thought there would be more then this. Nodding to them politely he strode in on his steed. Both men seemed baffled at his not using a saddle or bridle and to the fact that the mare just followed him willingly. The looked at each other and nodded back letting him pass.
Walking his horses to the tavern, which was near by, he went in to ask the bartender for some directions and information. Walking in he got some interesting looks. Not many people had seen a wolf like him he guessed and dismissed the looks. He sat at the bar waiting for the tender. A burly man came over to him form behind the bar. His beard making him look rather scruffy. "What'll be mister?" Avilik pulled out a flask form his pocket. "Could you get me some whiskey and fill this up too?" "Sure thin'" the bartender took the flask filling it first with the whiskey then got him a glass of it. "that'll be a silver and 3 coppers mister" Avilik pulled out the money and slide it to him. "how much for some information?" "Depends on what it is." "I'm looking for someone and some employment" "Four silvers and I'll tell ye all you want" Avilik gave him the four silvers "Now who ye looking for?" "I'm looking for a women named Shoshanah. She and I are old friends." The bartender got and interesting look on his face, confusion mixed with fear. "Y..y..you are friends? Well she's a regular here. She lives in the south part of the city" Avilik smiled. "Do you know where I can find her now?" he thought a moment "She'd probably be at work right now." "Where is that?" "West side the mercenary's place" he thought a moment "do you think they have any job openings?" "sure they're always looking for more people" "thanks" he downed his glass and winked at the man then left. He mounted Stregar again and went to the west side of the city. After stopping for directions once he found the place he was looking for.
Dismounting he walked in to see a large black man at the desk smoking a cigar. He was very muscular with and x shaped scar on his right jaw. He looked over Avilik as he approached unsure of his purpose or intentions. "What'd ya want mister?" Avilik studied the man before responding "I heard you have some openings, I wanted to join up if I can" Avilik kept his voice strong and steady revealing very little about what he was thinking. The man looked him over once more noting Avilik's scar across his right eye. A sure sign of a good fighter. "Yes we have some openings." He stepped out form behind the desk. "What makes you think you can handle the work though?" Avilik smirked "Well sir if I can handle an entire wolf pack coming at me I can certainty handle this. I was trained as a warrior at a young age." The man called Brusier by most looked at him rather impressed. if he can really do what he claims he can he'd be a great addition. And I know the perfect person to partner him with. "Well then if what you say is true then your hired. There are no guarantees in this business you know. You could end up dead 3 days after you take the job." Avilik smiled "I'm well aware of that sir" "alright then. You can call me Bruiser. Come here for a moment I need you to fill somethin' out for me. Just so I know a little about ya." Avilik nodded and followed, Brusier gave him some ink and a pen and a piece of paper wanting specific information. Avilik filled it out some what honestly. Leaving out what he considered as personal information. After he was done he handed the paper and pen with ink well back to Bruiser. Who took it and looked it over thoroughly his expression changing as he did and raising a brow at times. Avilik just waited patiently till he finished. "So your from Kangik in the SmithNaka mountains. Where Kangik located?" "it's near Anaktuvuk" "Ahh ok. Hmm...so you were raised as a warrior form the age of 10 and your 1082 now. That's a lot of experience under your belt." "It is" "You prefer to use swords in battle and seem to be very stealthy. Very good qualities. Can you use a throwing knife or star?" "Yes I can, I don't use them often but I always hit my mark." "Very impressive...I'm assuming Avilik Nuka is not your full real name" "It is not...I rarely use my real name, just in case something happens you know" "Very wise of you and I understand. Well welcome aboard Avilik" he extended his hand in a hand shake Avilik accepted it gratefully. He pulled out another papper looking down a list and writing Avilik's name on it then placed a mark by his name and someone else's. "You'll be partnered with Shoshanah, she's about the get a new job that's probably to big for her alone. I'll speak with her about this later tonight." Avilik smiled "Shoshanah and I are friends so don't worry about us getting along." He smiled. Bruiser looked at him raising a brow. "So you know each other huh? All the better I guess." "Well we haven't seen each other in 10 years so if she doesn't remember my name then just say I called her 'Firekeeper'." "Alrighty you don't have a place to stay do ya?" "I'll find one bruiser." he rubbed his head "I'll speak with Sho and see if you can stay at her place. If not I'll get a you a room." "Thank you kindly Bruiser." "I'll go talk with her now wait here." "Alright" Avilik plopped down in a chair as Bruiser left the room.
Bruiser walked into the back area going to Sho's desk. Shoshanah was looking over her job file when he came up and sat down in a chair across from her. She looked up from her reading "Oh hi Bruiser what's up?" "Well I got a new recruit who says he knows you and by luck you're his partner" she frowned "I told you I don't need a partner for this job I can handle it on my own." He gave her a stern look. "I know what you said but I don't want to take the chance of messing this job up if your wrong." She sighed knowing that he wouldn't give up on this. "He says he knows me? What's his name?" "He said his name was Avilik Nuka" her brow raised as she remembered the wolfen leader who had forced her to stay with his pack. "What's he doing here hmm...not sure he'd be a good partner for me" "you're the only one left so too bad your stuck with him. He'll need a place to stay short term till he gets his own so I want him to bunk at your place." "WHAT!!!" her eyes flaring dangerously. Avilik heard that from where he was and was wondering if this was a bad idea after all. "You heard me Sho" bruiser was remarkable calm for someone so close to danger. "You are friends are you not? I see nothing wrong with him staying with you for the meantime while he tries to get his own place." She glared at him "he's a friend but we are not close. This better be a really short time or someone will be fried" he nodded sighing in relief "alright that's a deal. I'll find him a place if he can't find one." She sighed "fair enough I guess, where is he?" he smiled "he's waiting out by the desk, he looked somewhat worn out to me and he has 2 horses with him. Perfect for your two being partners." She glared at him "I don't ride horses" "Sho they are more efficient then your cloud, at least a horse can keep going when you're out cold" Her voice grew dangerously low "I have never been knocked out cold on the job" "Always a first time for everything"
Sho muttered something under her breath and walked out to the lobby she saw Avilik in a chair looking like he was taking a nap. She shook her head still finding it hard to believe that he was here. As she approached to wake him he opened his eyes and looked up at her before smiling. "Nice to see you again Shoshanah" he stood bowing politely. She was surprised when he woke before she did anything and dismissed it as good hearing "Like wise I guess" she curtsied not know what else to do in return. "What brings you here?" he face emotionless "Pack issues, I'll explain later." She raised a brow but said nothing more. must be some big issues if you left such a nice home "I'll be right back" she sighed and walked back to her desk glaring at Brusier again who just ignored her look, he got bad looks from her a lot so he was used to them. Walking back to her desk she grabbed the file she had been looking at along with a few other papers and came back out. "Alright lets go." Bruiser stopped her saying quietly "I want him as well versed on that file as you by tomorrow Sho." She glared at him once again "fine" she said in a rather annoyed tone. She walked out the door but stopped when she noticed bruiser had momentarily stopped Avilik. Avilik agreed to give Sho horseback lessons if he could then went out side. Stregar and DesterRose immediately came over. Sho looked at the mare who nuzzled her. "Good to see you again too" she couldn't help but smile to the mare before turning and starting to walk home. Avilik walked behind her looking around as he did to memorize the way. "The horses can't stay at my house you know" he smiled "I'm aware for that. I'll find a place to board them at till they are needed." Looking back she saw both horses following on either side of him it's amazing that they stay with him and are so calm. Most horses don't do well their first time to the city "you'll also be paying for your board after you get going here. I can't support you and my self." His voice calm and steady despite his excitement "Very well. I understand perfectly. Until I can pay you I will work off my debt." She nodded thinking it was a fair enough deal. Walking up to her house she pulled out her keys and opened the door walking in.
Avilik instructed the horses to stay at the post in the street both obliging him with out a second thought. He then pulled his packs off DesertRose and thanked the mare for carrying them. Then thanked Stregar for the ride before heading up to the house. The house was simple in design a multicolored brick facade, wooded shutters painted a pastel blue, a cherry stained front door with a leave shaped door knocker. It was a three-story house with the attic, which was barely detectable in the wooden shingles, as the third story. One small window on the side gave it away. He walked in looking around and shutting the door behind him. The interior was also simple yet decorative. An ivy boarder encompassed the room up near the ceiling in this seemingly mudroom with light brown paint. He looked around trying to find her. Sho finally appeared in the doorway to the kitchen. "It's not much but its home." Her face unreadable at the moment. He smiled "It's very lovely and cozy" She raised a brow but walked into the kitchen. A fair sized room with a wooden table made of oak that was stained chestnut brown. It had a scrolling on its edge and lions feet with 6 chairs to match. The room its self was a light raspberry color with polished granite counter tops and a deep copper sink. A wood stove in the corner and a cellar door to store food near by the stove. There was also a large pantry for food storage and cabinets above and below the counter. "Why do you say it's lovely?" he looked at her a little surprised by the question. "Well the design of the house is very well laid out. One room seems to flow into the next rather nicely. The colors also blend well with one another so that you aren't shock just by one room. The colors also aren't too bright or too dark." She gave him a look of interest. "Are you a home day core expert or something?" he blinked "Well no but my mother taught me color schemes and some architecture for later in life if I needed it." She gave him a look of disbelief and shook her head. "Well I for one don't really like the colors and the day core but I don't have the money to waste to fix it up." She sat down at the table with a sigh. Avilik was unsure of how to react t that. He quietly set his bags down and walked over to the table hesitating before sitting down near by. Sho pushed the folder to him, which he took and opened. Pulling out the papers he began to read over them. Raising his brow slightly at the location, he had passed through Realand on his way here. The dense jungle would be a challenge to get through. After he finished with the file he looked over at Sho who had been watching for his reaction. She didn't think he could handle such work being as he was a wolfen prince who had been a bit sheltered. "Well it's an interesting place to go for such a task I'll say that." He finally said and set the papers back down in the folder and closed it. "Can you handle this type of work? You don't seem like the killing type to me." He chuckled "I can handle it just fine. I have killed many in my time. Besides I separate my self personally form my work." She smiled ever hear in a place he didn't know he was calm and logical. More logical then she expected he'd be. "Can you cook?" "Yes I can, why?" she smirked "Cause if your any good you're cooking dinner from now on." He grinned wolfishly "As you wish Shoshanah" she frowned "Please just call me Sho." He nodded "Alright then." She sighed getting up she motioned him to follow. He picked up his bags and followed silently looking around. She took him up stairs pasted 2 rooms. One appeared to be and office and the other her bed room. Both painted in light colors, the office a sage green and her room a pastel orange. She noticed him looking at them both "You can go anywhere in the house but stay out of my room" She emphasized that with her eyes "Then I shall not enter it," He spoke plainly. Leading him to the end of the hallway she opened a trap door in the ceiling and pulled down a set of narrow stairs that went up into the attic. Then walked up the stairs, Avilik followed looking around the unused space. It was very dusty with cobwebs hanging from the rafters. The wood floor barely visible in the dust. A single queen size bed was up there in the corner on a wooden frame. A desk was at the other end neck to a table with 4 chairs. And unused dresser that was badly deformed and its color unrecognizable stood alone in the middle of the space. It was obvious that many years ago someone had been using this area but not now. It's dusty but a very nice space with much potential. Sho turned back to him after looking around herself; she had never bothered coming up here till now. "It's not what your used to I'm sure, but I'll have to do." He shook his head "No, it's fine just need a little cleaning is all." He walked over to the bed and sat his stuff down then proceeded to walk around the room looking for any trouble spots in the floor or walls. "Looks like that's all it does need." He smiled coming back over to her. "When should I have dinner ready by?" she thought for a moment "Around six o'clock I should think." He nodded "then it shall be. Until then I'll go find a place for my horses and some cleaning if that's alright with you?" "that's fine. I'll be down for dinner at six then and don't be late" she gave an intimidating glare to emphasize that. "Very well. I shalln't be" he walked down the two flights of stairs heading out side, he then called his steeds to him and mounted Stregar going to find a boarding house with DesertRose in tow. Sho watched him go through her bedroom window, glad to see the horses go and glad to be alone. "Why does this always happen to me? If Bruiser wasn't my boss I'd kill him." She went to her office after grabbing the file from down stairs to do a little research before figuring out the budget for this job.
Avilik mean while found a very nice boarding stable owned by and older gentleman. He struck a deal with the man and gave him a down payment. Then left stopping on his way back to his new home to get some supplies, cleaning stuff, bedding, and cloth. Coming back he quietly went up stairs making sure he didn't disturb Sho as he went by. Sho was hard at work figuring some numbers for the budget for the trip there and back plus expenses while doing the job. Avilik walked upstairs and put his supplies down then went back down and retrieved the broom, mop, and a bucket. Then went back up to his space, shutting the trap door he started cleaning. It was only one o'clock so he had plenty of time. Sweeping the floor with a handkerchief over his face to keep the dust out. He soon had all the dust and dirt in a pile in the center of the room. Taking the bucket and a dustpan he swept it up and deposited it into the bucket. Then took the bucket outside and shook it out. Coming back in he used the hand pump to pump up water into the bucket and carefully went back up stairs. Wetting the mop he began to clean again humming a simple tune as he did. Sho in the mean time had noticed him carrying cleaning supplies, though she had no clue what he had brought home. She shrugged it off figuring if he cleaned the attic now she wouldn't have to mess with it later. Finished with her work she got up and walked into her bedroom and shut the door. Lying down on her bed she decided to take a nap and deal with Avilik after dinner. While she slept he worked, making the wood floor shine after he placed a coat of wax on it, a rather difficult task to do. The beautiful maple flooring had been hidden by the dust and dirt. He made the bed up putting sheet and covers on and fluffing up the feather pillows he had found in the dresser. Then tucked the covers in neatly. He then went on to clean and polish the oak table and chairs. Taking some light green fabric he made a small tablecloth and placed it on the table. Pulling the small bookcase out form under the bed he sat it up right by the desk. It stood only 4ft tall and was about 3ft wide made of pine and stained ebony. He placed his books in the bookcase; they were wolfen books from his clan. Some were also records of other cultures and races. Setting up his desk with the supplies he had bought and placing them neatly in the draws in and organized manner he went to his next task. Looking over the dresser he pulled out his dagger and began to chip the many layers of flaking paint away. After he had finished that he checked the time finding that it was only four o'clock he smiled. He pulled out some sand paper and began to sand down the deformed surface of the dresser. Then carver and intricate pattern into the legs and beveled the tops edge before sanding it once again. After that he took a mahogany stain he had bought and began to stain it. Rubbing it down with a cloth to get rid of the excess. Then moved on to something else while that dried. Getting out some fabric he had bought he jumped up to the rafters and hung from them nailing the colored fabric into place in various areas creating a division of the space into rooms, and added curtains to the window. Then went back and added a coat of wax to the dresser making it look gorgeous. He then moved the furniture around to suit the different rooms he had made. The bedroom was at the far end where the widow was, its interior fabric a forest green. The dresser had been moved into the bedroom. The office was next to the bedroom; it's fabric a light pastel blue. Then rest of the area was a living room of sorts, it's fabric a tan. The table and two of the chairs at the far end by the wall. The other two chairs in the center of the room toward the back wall. He laid out a deerskin rug he had with him on the floor and placed the chairs on it. Then took some violet fabric and made seat cushions and cushioned backs for the chairs changing their look entirely. Once down he placed the rest of his stuff in his make shift closet in his bedroom. Placing hooks in the walls for his clothes to hang on.
After he was done he went down stairs taking back all he had barrowed. Then after firing up the wood stove looked around the kitchen and pantries deciding what to make for dinner. After a minute or so he grabbed some catfish and some potatoes and took them out of the cellar. Finding some garlic, ginger, and turmeric in the spice rack he then took some of his whiskey and made a sauce out of the ingredients. He then began to simmer the fish in this sauce while he boiled the potatoes. He then added some chopped onions to the fish for some extra flavor. When he was sure the potatoes were nice and soft he pour the water out, the smashed up the potatoes and poured a bit of milk in the pot. Then added some butter and salt and began to cook them again. Stirring them while watching the fish. Soon as they were done he got the plates and utensils out and set the table. Placing equal amounts of fish and potatoes on the plates before setting them on the table. Then took some white wine he had bought for her out and poured it into the glasses.
Sho was still asleep up in her room. He went up the stair and knocked gently on her door. Tiredly she got up out of bed and opened it wondering what he wanted. "Dinners ready" she rubber her eyes "it's six already?" he blinked and nodded. She shrugged and walked down stairs to the kitchen stopping for a moment when she saw the meal on the table. She never made a formal dinner herself since she didn't have time. Gathering her wits again she took her seat. Avilik took his seat smiling and politely picked up his silverware and began cutting his fish. Sho raised a brow looking skeptically at the fish but took her utensils and began to cut into the filet. Taking a tentative bite she found it to be excellent in flavor and texture. Though she couldn't peg the exact flavor. Avilik ate silently watching her every so often. She finally decided to break the silence after trying the moist mashed potatoes. "This is excellent Avilik. Where'd you learn to cook like this?" he looked over at her. "I learned if from my half sister actually." He sipped some of his wine. She quirked her eyebrow "Half sister?" he set his cup down "Yes my half sister. Same father different mothers." She frowned "I'm sorry..." "Don't be I hated my father anyway" he cut her off "Cloudberry, my half sister, and I are very close since my real sister was killed awhile back. With the rest of my family." He spoke as though this didn't bother him at all. She on the other hand didn't really think he'd be this cold about it. "May I ask why you hated your father?" he looked over again his eyes held a cold look to them. "Lets just say he was not in anyway nice or loving to me once I grew to 8 years of age." Sho frowned, she had always been close to her father but she could compare his father to her stepmother she guessed.
Avilik finished his meal in silence not sure what else to say. "So why did you come here?" she broke the icy silence once again. "I came because my pack was destroyed by a rival cousin pack. Though I formed a new pack it was not the same and I needed a change so I decided to leave and put my adopted daughter and her husband in charge." She felt slightly sympathetic for him. She knew just from the little time she was there that his pack was everything to him. "I'm sorry about your pack ...... I didn't know you had a daughter. Guess a lot can change in 10 years." "Yes it can. Christine or WindChaser as she prefers to be called is a human girl I found abandoned in the woods when she was 8 years old. Her parents thought she was possessed. Because even when I found her she acted like a wolfen female. She also understood me even when I did not speak in words. It was very perplexing and it still is. Despite her being human she fights and hunts as well as any female wolf. Her husband is and older male form the new pack I formed." She quirked a brow once again. A human? So the rumors about wolves are true. "Well I'm glad she is doing well but why did she marry a wolf?" he smiled "because she thinks and acts just like a wolf her self. I tried to teach her human ways but she refused to learn. She says she's a wolf and I believe her in that. She is wolf in mind and spirit in human flesh." Sho thought they were both a bit insane now a human wolf was absurd. Still it was hard to explain something like that away if what he said was true. "What about her soul? Is that a wolf's too?" he looked slightly taken aback by the question. "That I am uncertain of. There is no way for me to tell for sure. But I believe that is humans. We have been in many arguments. She still has some human throwbacks if you will." She thought on this for a moment not really sure how to respond to that. "Well I hope you get to see her again some day." "I'm certain I will see her again" she sighed, "Well you need to study our mission and be ready to travel at any time." Very well, but I already know what I need to know for this." She gave him a skeptical look "oh really?" her voice rather sarcastic. "Yes really, I have a very good memory. I normally only need to see something once to remember it. It's a wolf thing." She shook her head "Alright fine but if get lost or don't know what to do don't come asking me for help."
"Oh I just remembered, Brusier ordered me to give you horseback fighting maneuvering lessons." She glared at him coldly "I am not riding a horse Avilik." He was just a bit afraid of her when she did that to him. "Hey he didn't leave me much of a choice you know. He gave the order saying I'd lose my job if I didn't do it." Sho sighed rubbing her temples "He would that jack ass." "You'll probably have to take it up with him later. On the bright side at least you know the mare you'll be riding." Her eyes flashed at him "That is not a bright side Avilik." He gulped "It's not?" "No it isn't. Where'd you stick the horses anyway?" "At a boarding stable about 5 blocks away. And elderly gentleman agreed to board them as long as I help him at the stables until when they are there until I get enough to pay him fully. I gave him a down payment." Sho recognized the place by location she had once helped the man with his groceries since he was having a lot of trouble. "Well don't forget your deal with me." She gave him a stern look. "I won't forget." He smiled to her. "What on earth did you do up there in that room of yours anyway? There was an awful lot of noise." He smirked playfully "I was just cleaning up and fixing things a bit. You want to come see?" she raised a brow "Why not" she shrugged then finished her wine. Avilik cleaned the table placing the plates in the sink. "Avilik before we go up can you make some tea?" "Sure" he took out a kettle that he had found earlier while looking for pans and placed some tea bags in it. Then filled the pot with water taking it to the wood stove he put it on the burner. Opening the door he stoked the fire blowing onto it before shutting the door. Sho watched him as he did this wondering how great his fear of fire really was since he didn't seem to have and problems with the wood stove. "Alright lets go then" she said, he smiled and jogged up the stairs opening the trap door for her. She looked over at him before entering she was shocked by how different it looked. So much that she forgot to close her mouth. Shaking of the shock she closed her mouth and proceeded to look the space over. Finding that she couldn't help but be amazed by how much work he had gotten done she whistled her amazement. He even had a door of sorts to each room made of fabric from the walls that he could pull back and tie off. Perplexed by how he could do so much in only 5 hours she walked back over to him. He grinned and tilted his head wondering what her opinion on this was. "Well I'm impressed that you got so much done in such little time. I never thought of sectioning off the attic with fabric to make rooms but its and interesting idea." His tail wagged now "I'm glad you like it. I was hoping you'd approve." She shook her head "You're an interesting fellow Avilik. You have any other useful talents you want to mention?" he tilted his head his ears flickering back and forward. "Not that I know of. I can just do any of the normal things needed for life in a city home with humans is all." She smirked "Good then you get to do the dishes and the laundry." He blinked for a moment "As you wish Sho." She walked down stairs figuring with him around she'd have more time for planning their jobs and such. Avilik walked back down stairs as well going to the sink he pumped some water into it. Using some birch ark soap her began to clean the dishes. As for the leftovers he placed them in some newspaper to deal with later. Sho in the mean time poured herself a hot glass of tea, as she once again looked though the file. Double-checking her figures at the table. Avilik soon finished washing and dried the dishes putting them away. While trying to drain the sink he noticed it was plugged. He walked out side finding the problem quickly. A rat's nest was blocking the drain. He gently spoke to the mother rat and removed the nest then dug a new hole for her and carefully placed the nest in the hole. She reassured him she would never mistake a drainpipe for a hole again. He left going back inside smiling seeing the sink drained. Sho looked up at him "What blocked it?" he looked towards her "A rat's nest. I found a more suitable place for it." She gave him a look as if that were very strange. "Ok well as long as it's taken care of." He yawned it was around 8 o'clock now. "Come here would you?" He did as she asked taking a seat next to her at the table. She slid some for the papers over for him to see. "Alright here's a sketch of our target." Avilik looked at the sketch of a middle aged good looking human with a scar on right cheek. "Alright he looks like a thief to me. Maybe the ring leader of a thief clan." Sho's mouth dropped open for a moment before she remembered to close it. "How did you know that?" "He just looks like the type to me. It was a guess." She shook her head. "A very lucky guess. Anyway he's the one where going to kill but he'll be very well guarded." "I would expect that. He probably will have and inner chamber in the building." She raised a brow pulling out a building map she laid it out. He studied it for a moment then pointed to a room with one entrance in the interior. "He'd be here most likely and if I'm not mistaken this mark." He pointed to a small square. "Is the sign for a trap door exit. It would be connected to another room probably right about." He found a trail leading to a triangle. "Here." Sho watched him finding this very strange that he knew such things. "Where did you learn this" he tilted his head "My pack helped build some houses for humans once. We found some old maps of a castle in the process and I studied them a bit." She just shook her head at his dumb luck. "Well then we'll have to go through and get to the room before he can escape." Avilik shook his head. "Better idea. We can use the escape tunnel the get to him it'd take him longer to escape to locked and bolted doors that are closed and he has to pass through other rooms to do it. Besides then we'll hold the element of surprise." She thought this through seeing her did have a small point. "That might work only if there is a way to get in unnoticed." "Give me some time and I can find a way in unnoticed for the both of us." He smirked. "We'll just see about that but it's getting late we should get some rest." "I suppose you are right Sho." Sho stood taking her file with her she headed up stairs. Avilik did the same after blowing the candles out. "I want you to make dinner by 6 am and have it on the table." He was a bit taken back "It shall be so then." He walked up stairs and closed the trap door. Sho placed the folder on her desk then went into her room to change into her nightgown and climb into bed. Avilik pulled off his clothes then climbed into his own bed falling asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.
