The group earned some odd looks from the people in the lobby, but they made it to Acey's room in time.
"It's not very big..." she said, as she unlocked the door. "I had originally planned to come here by myself. I didn't think I'd meet so many people here."
"We weren't expecting to run into you, either," laughed Prosper, as he followed the others into the little hotel room.
"So, what do we do next?" asked Hornet, as she sat on the edge of the bed.
"Yeah. Our things are still in the Stella..." Mosca added, nodding.
"Wow! You've even got a TV in here!" Riccio exclaimed as he grabbed the remote.
"We'll have to go back eventually," said Acey, nodding. "Some of my things are there, too."
"How could they have found me so soon?" Scipio thought aloud, looking around the room. "And, I'm sorry. This is really all my fault..."
"No- don't say that," said Hornet firmly, as she looked at him. "If not you, it would have been someone else. Some one would have alerted the police eventually, and you know it."
"She's right, Scipio," said Acey, looking from Hornet to Scipio. "It could have been Prosper and Bo, it could have been Riccio or me. It could have been any of us."
"Well, either way," Scipio said, standing up. "I'm going to fix this. But, I'll need your help."
"Have you got a plan?" asked Riccio, turning away from the TV.
"I may just have one," he replied, grinning again.
Sorry it's short.
I just had to end it there.
I do not own the Thief Lord, I merely own my Acey.
Thanks for the comments! I love hearing from you all!
