Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Well, Kaoru told me what he wanted to do, and I know you don't like the fact that Flame would essentially be used as bait, but knowing L....what dame said about her the other night was right. She loves to ******** with people's minds. She wants to use Flame for something, and she's counting on his attraction to dame to get it. She knows that he's not gonna let dame get hurt by anyone." She gives Icy a cautious look, "You know, you can tell me to shut up if you don't want to hear it....."

It doesn't matter. stare

*looks at her glass that she set down a while ago and picks it back up, opening the bottle and pouring another drink*

Finish your thought.

"Well, Kaoru's already got it in his mind that I'm going to go with him as support on this job...so that already tells me he wants me for sniper, but for some reason, I think he just wants me to wing her so that the Russians can nab her. Which.....," she taps her chin with her finger, "IF they could arrange a meeting outside, I very well could pull off a shot like that, one that wouldn't be fatal at least. Bringing Flame there would be part of the plot to have L think she was getting what she wanted. It would take some coordination but it could be done....." Her mind starts flipping possibilities while she sips her drink, her fingers drumming on the bar.

*while listening to Katana, Brat sneaks up on them at the bar*

And here's the woman of the hour. Just got through asking about you. Have you received your package yet, b/c Flames and mine was delivered to us the night we arrived here. A very beautifully composed history of our lives, including proof of life, real names and all. Your boy Ivan has been a very busy, busy man. stare

*sips her drink and looks at Katana*

L is always a couple steps ahead of things, so I hope you and your partner has taken into consideration that she may very well know that he'd look you up, and possibly try to double cross her. I'm pretty sure she hasn't gotten to where she is today without covering such bases.

*Lifts a brow at Icy, finishing making her drink and steps over to the counter.*

Not much for him to find on me, no... *A scowl comes to her face.* More to do with finding a pawn on my end. *Her eyes turn a deep red, a ball of flame forming in her fingertips again.* Not his brightest move. Guess I know how he got the Ghost's cooperation now. *She squeezes her fingers shut, snuffing the flame and picks up her drink.*

I'll deal with him, after we get her. Not because of his threats, either. *Again her eyes narrow.*

Hey Kat

*She closes her eyes to quell the anger boiling in her blood. He had owed her a favor, bastich. Threatening those she'd allowed herself to care for, ignoring what he owed her, all very stupid moves. But she'd play along, until... there are some things worse than death, things even Ivan should be familiar with. Things he'd become even more familiar with, on the receiving end this time.*

Cocky dillweed, ain't he. Just as well he provide cells. He thinks he's so smart, he can pay, for everything.

*She shakes her head.* No, I really don't know much about their operations. That's Ghost's game. What I do know is they believe she took out Paulie and blamed them. Trying to start a Mafia War amongst the groups. Italians didn't help themselves when they arranged our flight. *She takes a long swallow of her drink.* Guess if she can get them otherwise engaged, she can expand her operations.

*Brat sighs softly.* Maybe, but for her to be able to talk to you... *She pauses, takes another drink* She doesn't talk to them. They talk, she listens. Perhaps she has eavesdropped a bit. I'd imagine given their recent threats, she has more than reason to work with us.
