It was dark, completely and utterly dark. But she sat by the door, twittling a bobby pin in the lock, until she heard the tumbler roll. With a victorious smirk, she shook Leonardo and La Volpe awake then opened the cell door. This was almost too easy.
Soon she came to a difficulty, Leonardo wasn't like her or La Volpe, he couldn't climb or jump. Not well. They'd have to find an easier way out. Another problem with that, the door was locked. Just locked.
She whispered her thought aloud, "If I were Cesare, where would I hide a key."
La Volpe grew a smile and started running up the stairs and she had to keep up. Soon they came through the library and on the balcony and through another door. In there, they were in unknown territory. She wasn't familiar with the hallway. Soon La Volpe opened one of the doors and peaked inside, closing it shut again wide eyed.
Her voice low, "What was in there?"
"Rodrigo."
"What the-?"
"He was with one of his mistresses."
She shivered at the thought, then allowed La Volpe to lead down the hall, opening another door. She looked in over his shoulder to see that it was empty. The bed and room were vacent. Down another hall. And once again, they opened the door, Ezio twitched an eye in disturbance.
There was Cesare... and Lucrezia. Both sound asleep. The former was laying on his back and the latter curled up beside him. It was obvious that they were half naked. But La Volpe was right, Cesare had the key. Guess where. Go ahead and guess. There are no wrong answers!
Okay, NO he didn't hide it in Lucrezia's corrset or up his ass or anything like that. Whoever said that get's an F. Just kidding. Nope, it was on a chain around Cesare's neck. Why wasn't she surprised? And clearly La Volpe wasn't either.
Said violet eyed thief crept through the room, stepping over the clothes strewn across the floor, then right at the bed side. He started to slowly slide the chain off of the "brilliant" Captain General's neck. When suddenly, one of his hands wretched up and took hold of one of the master thief's arms! Though he didn't wake up.
Ezio crept over tot he bug eyed thief who was trying to free himself, unsucessfully. He only seemed to get his arm griped tighter and Cesare cuddling it like a stuffed animal. She then attempted to work La Volpe's arm free, earning a few murmered protests and Cesare drowl on her hand. Note to self: Wash hands... REALLY WELL!
With Volpe freed, the two left the room with the key and were on their way back to Leonardo, who should of been waiting where they left him. But, of course, the artist was like a kid in a candy shop and wandered off. La Volpe left to find him while Ezio waited.
