Raze glowered darkly at Darcia as they finally made it to their destination. She pulled up abruptly and threw the car in park. She flashed him a grin and removed the keys from the ignition. They were in an older part of the city in front of a row of, what looked like, used to be old stockyard warehouses. Raze eyed the ominous darkness that hung about the old buildings with suspicion. But then again when people that drove like Darcia lurking around, who wouldn't be a bit wary? Keiko stepped out first. Raze still looked uncomfortable from the hectic ride over and Darcia smiled at him.

"Come now, you actually look a bit rattled big guy!" She slapped him on the back with force that actually moved the large male Lycan's frame. He glared down at her with a look of impending doom.

She kept a catty grin on her face as she started for the warehouse they were in front of. It was the one that was smack dab in the middle of the others. Keiko and Raze flanked her as she got up to the large, double, warehouse doors. She pushed the heavy wooden frames with minimal effort.

"Good evening ladies! I'm BAAAAACK!" She announced grandly as she strode in with a satisfied smirk. "And the time has come. Mina has requested your gracious audience to aid "The Great Lucian" in his war against the leeches!"

Raze rolled his eyes but took a look around. He was actually quite impressed. There were about maybe fifteen to twenty female Lycans lounging and standing around the warehouse all varying in ethnicity and height and shape. Some eyed him rather darkly while some were just curious….then the other were radiating the obvious scent of lust. This amused him deeply. One female, a lithe strawberry blonde, sauntered over to them with a coy smirk.

"Oh my! Your back so soon Darcia?" Her eyes roamed over Raze and he leveled her with a steady, cool gaze. "And with a guy no less! Oh my God I'm shocked beyond words Darcia!"

Darcia laughed as she smirked at the approaching female. "Unfortunately he is not mine to keep."

She said and glanced up at the scowling Lycan sweetly. "But you ladies are welcome to have your way with him if you like."

They seemed to like this idea very much. Raze glared as Darcia gave him an innocent smile. Sighing in exasperation he wondered again just where in the hell this girl even came from anyway. She was an entire world all in herself. The sultry woman turned to look at the now alert females and stood straight to her full, official height of 5"9. She addressed them casually but with an air of dominance that she hadn't portrayed until now.

"I hope you're ready ladies," She grinned "because it is time for war! Mina says that the time has come so get your weapons ready! "Have you your pistols? Have you your sharp-edged axes?" Hehehe…pioneers oh pioneers."

The warehouse erupted into a roar of high pitched cheers and hoots. The excited sounds only seemed to make Darcia's smile widen even more. She looked over the group of females slowly as they all seemed to be moving and preparing. A dark haired female walked over to her with a large leather duffle bag.

"I'm pretty sure young Nova will be wanting her playthings and clothes, yes?" The woman said with a mild Transylvanian accent.

Darcia smirked. "OH YEAH…she'll definitely need them." She said as she took the bag and slung its 200-something pounds of weight over one shoulder with a soft grunt.

'Geez what does she keep in this thing a whole damn army's worth of guns?' She thought. She surveyed the area once more as Raze watched her stoically out of the corner of his eye. 'Seems like everyone is here and accounted for…so far so good.' Pulling out her phone, she sent a quick text to both Nova and Mina. A confirmation to Mina and a comment saying she obtained Nova's beloved "goodies bag". She was just sending the last text when a dark shadow loomed over her. She looked back into the light brown eyes of Raze. She blinked in shock. When did he get that tall?

"How do you plan to get back without stirring up the hornet's nest? " His almost inhumanly deep voice sent a shiver down her spine as the closeness vibrated throughout her eardrums.

"…ummm…" It took Darcia a moment to regain her composure. She'd never had anyone sneak up on her like that in a very long. "Uh, What do you mean?" She said in confusion after the question had time to process.

Raze glared. "Your plan to get them back to Lucian and Mina woman! What were you just going to walk them, openly, through the streets of Bucharest??" He growled.

She smiled widely then. "No silly! We go the way we came!" When his eyes narrowed for an explanation she sighed and elaborated. "Over the rooftops and alleyways!" That answer didn't seem to help because his expression turned from annoyed to incredulous. "What? I'm serious!" she smiled and grabbed his arm. "Come on! Let us show you."

Raze sighed with an increasing sinking feeling in his gut. A feeling that told him he was going even deeper into the lion's den.

Mina watched warily from her place against the wall across the wall from a highly agitated Lycan master. Lucian paced the make-shift science/doctors lab. He was talking on a phone…although how a phone line managed to get all the way down here was a mystery to her. However she wasn't curious enough to question it. She was to into his phone call to care. She knew exactly who he was speaking to. The silence in the room between its three occupants made it so that her acute hearing picked up every small breath the man on the other line made. But the person on the other line wasn't a man at all. He was a vampire. And not just any vampire. He was Kraven, the very same vampire that she despised so passionately. She listened carefully to the voice on the phone as the conversation carried on.

"Amelia's convoy will be here in a week, think of something by then." Kraven muttered.

"A week?" Lucian said. "That will be more than enough time. Just make sure your people do their part."

"That won't be a problem-"

"Good." Lucian said abruptly, "Good-bye cousin." and hung up the phone.

Mina smirked. 'Bet that pissed him off. He always likes to get in the last word.' Lucian sighed in exasperation and looked over to her briefly catching her gaze. He frowned at her expression like a parent would at a child that laughed at inappropriate moments. She just smiled then which made him sigh again.

"I'm glad someone is enjoying this." He grumbled.

"Enjoying it? Lucian I simply find it amusing how short you are with him." She laughed softly.

"You feel amusement at a time like this?" He growled.

"Well we can't all be gloomy and emo like you all of the time." She said rolling her eyes.

He gave her a confused narrow of his eyes, his brow furrowing. "E- what?"

Mina paused and stared at him before bursting out in hysterical laughter. "Oh my god! You- you really don't-! AHAHAHAHA!"

Syinge and Lucian stared at the young woman like she'd grown a second head. "I do believe," Syinge said "that this woman is mad."

Mina breathed in deeply as she attempted not to laugh once more at the look they were giving her. "Wow!" she exclaimed. She walked over to Lucian with a smile and put a hand on the older, taller man's shoulder. He looked down at her half hidden face and blinked. He just didn't understand what was so damn funny about his question.

"Thank you Lucian, you have just made my day!" She laughed and walked out of the room giggling to her-self.

He watched her retreating form in confusion. He was pretty sure he should be annoyed with whatever just happened but he couldn't bring himself to do it. Somehow it was just…right. Maybe it was her uncanny resemblance to-

"Ahh!" Lucian shook his head. "I need to think about more important things right now!"
