Erin Trill
Alpha | Wereleopard
...the only difference between cats and humans...
...is that humans aren't afraid of vacuum cleaners...
Ajoia | AR
is on one of the streets of Ajoia
speaking to: ALL - it had come...the phone call she thought she wouldn't get...after all,her team had dumped her here,why would they bother calling her,for assignment or otherwise? even so...she'd answered the phone,using her code name,as was protocol...and,as was protocol,the voice on the other end had been sufficiently blurred,hadn't given name,only directions,and had been off the phone in less than thirty seconds,to prevent tracing...Erin was still on the must-capture list of terrorist groups in over fifty countries,and whether the team liked it or not,Erin still had to be protected...as well as the rest of the team...it is this call that finds her walking down a deserted street by the mines of Ajoia,as instructed,holding a map and wearing a pair of sunglasses,looking around the mines...her senses tingle a little and she looks out of the corner of her eye,watching someone approach...he stops a few feet from her and gives the challenge statement..."the gems here must be worth millions"...Erin gives a little smile and nods,giving the agreed upon response...people pay millions for just a pretty rock...
the man nods and turns to her..."how have you been settling in,Agent Trill?" she lowers her eyes and gives a short laugh before turning grey-blue eyes to look at him...she didn't recognize his face,but that didn't surprise her...concealment even in the face of friends was common in her group...you could never tell when someone was going to turn tail...funny...I didn't think you lot cared much...the man shakes his head and steps closer to her..."Erin...we sent you away for a reason,you know that...stop feeling so hurt,it makes you a liability"...she raises an eyebrow...a liability? that was my team...did you ship all of the other lycans out? that was only a rumor,that the Egyptian group was targeting lycan agents...we don't even know if they can actually differentiate between lycans and humans...the man shakes his head..."that rumor has been confirmed...they are using vampires...since you left,two of the lycan agents have been captured and tortured by the Egyptians...so yes...we have disbanded the lycan team...as a matter of fact,there is another coming here..."
eyebrows raise higher as she turns fully towards him,hands going to her hips,her eyes full of surprise and...hostility...another coming here? who? the man watches her and says softly..."Tillian Kage"...she searches her memory for the name and,finding it,looks at him incredulously..."what the hell do you mean,sending Kage here? I've heard about the lukoi pack here...they don't tolerate dissension...and Kage doesn't take any better to being told what to do than I do...she steps closer to the man and lowers her voice...which brings me to another point...our intel said there was no pard here,that I would be free to do as I pleased...yet I come here and there is a Raj...and he expects me to just submit...did you lot know about this? the man shakes his head..."no,we didn't...we have recently found out that he arrived just hours before you did...we don't know much about him,his files are as closed as yours are,we just know his former British military...and as for Kage...he requested assignment here...so you can take that up with him...he should be arriving in the next few hours"
bloody fucking hell...she runs a hand through her hair and takes her sunglasses off,eyes tilting up to the man,who she finds is regarding her almost questioningly...and so she speaks...something tells me Kage won't exactly come looking for me...he and I never exactly saw eye to eye...so is that all you came here for? to see how I'm 'settling in' and to tell me Kage is coming?...the man shakes his head and steps closer,so that there was less than half a foot between them..."we are giving you an assignment,Agent Trill...you have the option of declining it...but declining it means the withdrawal of our protection of you...your files will become open,and I assure you,more teams than the Egyptians will come looking for you"...her eyes go wide,first at the thought of another assignment,and then at the ultimatum...you bastards...you leave me no choice but to accept...the man nods..."assurance in any way possible,Agent Trill,you know the way we do things"...he hands her a heavy envelope of papers and raises one hand to caress her face..."you're missed,Erin...most of all by one"...and he spins on his heel,walking away as Erin stares after him,one word drifting on the breeze...'Caleb'...wiping away the tears that threaten to come into her eyes,she tucks the envelope under her arm and turns the other way,walking back towards the pard house
