What must be done to have order?

[Countess Calum Teramo]

Sitting down her own glass of wine couldn't help but just smile, "Yes it wouldn't look good would it. " turning back around to the fact that she looked down to see when everything could be ready for pick up. As her fingers worked a crossed the datapad. Looking back up at him again. "Here you go,", placing it in his hands. "Can you be ready to go by then, or do you need more time.", waiting his answer.

After which they would met up in two days time as it would take that long to get in the shipment but also for her to scout out the place to make sure she could get in and out that way. After that she would pat him on the shoulder, "Don't worry I will have your back, I will not let anything ill fall upon you." [member="Aurelio Murtix"]

 

[Aurelio Murtix]

Aurelio took the datapad and inspected it with cautious eyes, "I'll be ready when you need me to be countess, you can count on me. And I know that you'll have my back covered since you're a big and tough Mando, so I can count on you."

He chuckled a bit then placed his empty glass on the table while giving the plan some more thought, but decided that it was truly the best way to go about it.

"So where will I be staying until then? Here?"

[member="Countess Calum Teramo"]

 

[Countess Calum Teramo]

Giving him her full attention yes where would he need to stay out of sight for sure. Playing with the curl of her lips upwards a bit. Unless you can rough it out here as there isn't no running water beside the brook. I say back to my Retreat deep with in the mountain my personal hideaway.

Pausing long enough to hear his answer from him. Either would be find with her. Letting herself put way the old family history book in its safe box. As she walked along the room before spoke again. "I understand if you have made your own arrangements already."

[member="Aurelio Murtix"]

 

[Aurelio Murtix]

Aurelio watched her put away the family archive before looking about, "I can go to your little hideaway then my lady. I would much prefer a place with actual running water after all." He snickered a bit at his own comment, then stretched, "Now if I could get the directions to the facility I might just grab some sleep. It's been a very busy day for both of us so I suggest you get some sleep as well."

The baron covered up a yawn as evidence of his exhaustion. The next two days would be busy with preparation before things became deadly serious, but at least he would have a better place to stay than he usually did.

[member="Countess Calum Teramo"]

 

[Countess Calum Teramo]

Looking at him she could bring him the easy way then again there was the hard way to get to the place also. There was a reason why she had it build remotely. As she let her eyes doing some dancing as if she was really deep in thought. Yes to get to the facility. It will be on your data pad in a few second, then I"m going that way you can always just follow me, to get back to the hidway."

It was her way of playing with those word told him all he need to know that she had a fun side to herself. Maybe one that she didn't show to others so often.

"Come unless you want to be here when the night creatures make there wake up call for the night is very young, but you are right it has been a busy day, Aurelio." [member="Aurelio Murtix"]

 

[Aurelio Murtix]

The baron laughed a bit at her words, then tucked the datapad back into his satchel while straightening his outfit out.

"You lead the way then countess, before I find my noble remains in a pile sitting in the middle of a forest."

After they reached their location Aurelio would immediately get some sleep since he was more exhausted than he originally thought, yawning again and proving his point.

[member="Countess Calum Teramo"]

 

[Countess Calum Teramo]

Letting the morning light dance upon her fiery hair. Giving away to the fact today was the day. Like before any mission she had that feeling in the depth of her stomach. Letting herself look away for a moment, as her own handmaiden had brought out a nice light breakfast. Waiting for [member="Aurelio Murtix"] to come out of his room. Countess hadn't put on her armor yet, as she felt not ready to get this started just yet.

Over the days she had enjoy getting to know Aurelio better, even looking forward to there walks among the meals they had shared together. It was strange letting one like him get so close and personal with her. Just maybe there was other reason ones not yet explored yet.

Feeling his present behind her not moving from the birds she was watching dancing with each other in the air. If her guess they was mates to each other. "Good morning Aurelio, I trues you slept well last night."

 

[Aurelio Murtix]

Stepping into the room with a yawn and stretching his back, Aurelio began the day not even really thinking about the mission until he saw the countess. He was wearing a new set of clothing that was prepared to make him look like a true merchant, something that the baron thought was beneath him, but necessary for the job. He was surprised to find his host without her armor, but realized how foolish it was to think Mandos did everything in them. They were people outside of battle as well, even if those people were usually quite savage in nature.

"I slept quite well, but I'll never get used to waking up so early in the morning." He took a seat at the nearby table, and leaned back to relax while closing his still weary eyes, "So what is the plan for the wonderful day? Take down some terrorists after breakfast?"

She was watching something in the distance, but Aurelio wasn't too concerned with whatever it was. Instead he simply took one of the nearby glasses of water and enjoyed it. It was good to just relax before a situation that would be so tense.

[member="Countess Calum Teramo"]

 

[Countess Calum Teramo]

Turning around as her eyes slowly let them force on [member="Aurelio Murtix"] forming a small smile upon her lips. Even those they was small she could still curve them with appearance. "Well well, look who the one eager to begin today do you not find my company pleasing to you. Taking a sit herself to unfold her napkin to let herself get ready for what would be a light breakfast as they went over the deal of what would take place. AS she took up her knife to cut through the piece of nerf sausage like butter. As if she had learn the finer things of dinner.

Feeling that she had almost over stop her bounds with this very question making herself turn her head way from him as she slowly chew on the first piece that she had sliced. Knowing that she would have to excused herself to ready herself for the mission it was almost a way of her relaxing over a find light breakfast but also getting to know Aurelio better himself. Something that really did peek her fancy.

 

[Aurelio Murtix]

Aurelio raised a brow at the countess and her words, smirking all the same after taking a quick drink of his water. It was strange to meet a woman who was both a Mando and of noble birth who still acted like a proper lady of upper class society, where in one situation she could be as brutal as the rest of her new people, but could also host fancy meals such as this and act with the grace of her birth-right when the time demanded it. [member="Countess Calum Teramo"] was a strange woman indeed, and Aurelio found himself wondering if there were other Mandos like her out there.

"Your company is just fine my lady, it's just that I find that employers would prefer their work done before I sit down to enjoy a decent meal." The baron chuckled, trying to be friendly "And besides, it would be a death-wish to be rude to a Mandalorian employer, especially since I would not get my proper reward."

 

[Countess Calum Teramo]

"Now what kind of employer would I be if I sent you out to do a job on a empathy stomach, beside I have grown to like your present its a very nice change." as she let herself enjoy a few more minutes before she excused herself to put on her armor. Coming back out of her room with out her helmet. "Well, its show time, my good sir, unless you like to stay here for the rest of your life.", the way she teased him in her own mannerism. After which time they was on there way to where the wear house goods would be waiting for them from there they would part company for the time.

"Good luck, [member="Aurelio Murtix"] please try to come back in one please, if it matter to you I have grown to like you a bit." , doing something very out of character for her that was to take a bit of a pause to stop right in front of him place a kiss upon him. To show that she could be tender when given opportunity.

 

[Aurelio Murtix]

It was time.

Preparation for the job wasn't very difficult, since all Aurelio had to do was sit around with a bundle of very expensive fabrics, some of which the materialistic baron thought about keeping for himself. The countess was back in her armor, which made him more comfortable at this point since it was more obvious what she would do while wearing it. In her more fanciful attire she was almost completely unpredictable, giving off the aura of a calm noblewoman while hiding away the true nature of the beast. At times the beast still managed to catch the baron off guard, such as just at that moment when [member="Countess Calum Teramo"] moved to give him a quick kiss.

"I, uh...thank you? I'm...just going to be heading up to the house now, so you get ready to find whatever you need to find. Beyond that, do what you do best." Aurelio wasn't sure what to say, and exited the vehicle to collect his wares. A short man waited to assist, hooking the hover-cart of fabrics up to a small two-person speeder that they both climbed into before heading up the long road going up to the mansion as Aurelio gave a slight wave goodbye. Soon enough he was at their doorstep, and once he loudly knocked the young man wondered what the countess was up to. A young butler opened the door and looked Aurelio over with a mixture of curiosity and annoyance.

"Hello! Are the masters of the home here this fine day to look over my incredibly fine goods?"

 

[Countess Calum Teramo]

Finding her way deep into the forest to where there was a steep face cliff. Making short work with her training being that of experience. Inside the she turn on her night vision in her visor. After which time she made it to the next part of the tunnel as she came up threw the cellar. Finding herself now looking threw the wall as to where everyone was at the moment. If Aurelio played his part just so everyone even some of the servant would be looking at the goods he was selling today.

Finding herself listening there was his voice being a smooth as ever. Then something caught her off guard, only to cause her to pause and her mind racing what was her cousin doing here. After all she was only cousin on her father side his only niece. Pushing pass this very fact to the where she was heading she would get into their system to down load all the information that could get as long as he ws in the house.

[NPC] Tinya [NPC]

Peeking out the door in back of the servant that had answer the door. Her being the misstress of the house just hope it up the rest of the way.

Oh Yessss, come in and set up in the waiting room.

Getting everyone in the house as she ran through at top speed even to her Cousin Nephesh from just a married on her Aunts husband the Head of Greater House. Even those she couldn't help but not really think of Nephesh of anything but someone below her as she spoke to her.

"If you don't want to I understand seeing as you mother don't like you wearing those kind of clothing made out of the fine have to offer.

Making it back as the others in the house had gather already. As they then waited for this one to start but before she held up her hand.

Not that it matters where does these martial come from oh don't need to tell us your name its not important.

[member="Aurelio Murtix"]

 

[Aurelio Murtix]

Aurelio continued to smile, despite his rising annoyance and the contempt he already felt for their possible participation in the terror attacks, and soon found himself in their main waiting room with his ever-silent elderly assistant with his hover-cart pulled in behind them.

"As was said my name is not important. Instead, what I have here for sale is!" Aurelio purposely raised the volume of his voice, hoping to both attract their attention and cover up any noises that [member="Countess Calum Teramo"] might make going through the house, "Here in my little cart I have some of the finest fabrics on this side of the galaxy, either given to me by my friends in the business or bought for a cheap enough price to pass the savings onto such high-born people as yourselves!"

The baron moved to the cart and pulled out a long piece of white cloth, embroidered with various detailed designs made out of a shiny silver, and held it up for viewing while pacing about the room with the same smile plastered on his face. In the end this was all a ruse to simply waste their time, so whatever he could do to keep them busy was just fine.

"Actually, before I continue showing off my beautiful pieces could I have a glass of water? I'm feeling quite thirsty today, probably from all of the talking I've had to do selling these popular fabrics!"

 

[Nephesh Raivah]

Nephesh was all to eager to jump up to chime in to get the water. "I'll be right back with your water, sir.", jumping up out the door. Even those she could still feel those death stares at her back. No doubt her cousin was gong to lay into her about why this was below her. That work of servants after all in her cousin voice. "They are nothing by here to be our slave and wait on us hand and foot."

Even as she walked along very slowly enjoy getting out of that room. After all in her mind she had enough dresses to fill a room from top to bottom. Even so she had to stop dead in her tracks. After she did so getting that over whelming feeling that something wasn't right. It was also something that was telling her there something out of place in this manor that didn't belong. Finding herself into the kitchen to get that water only to send it was one of the younger maids just sitting around the big butcher table cutting up veggies.

Going out another way as made her way down the hallway. It was then that she saw or at less her hearing was better the most as to the reason why. Guessing that some was just born that way. Getting to the big door of her cousin father study. Feeling that strange wash over her. As the fact that her cousin father was out of the manor on business for the week.

"hello", in a very soft spoken voice only to feel hand go around her neck and mouth. All she felt on her back was some cold hard metal. Wanting to scream until she hear the voice. "Calum ?", feeling the door close and lock before she heard anything spoken.

[member="Countess Calum Teramo"]

 

[Countess Calum Teramo]

Nothing could have prepared her for what happen next. After she had used the cellar to get into the manor it wasn't hard to figure out where she would need to go be in the study. Finding herself face to face with another problem. How or why would her aunt let Cousin Nephesh come to the manor. Unless it had to be a pretty good reason. Finding herself telling her only cousin from her father side to not make a sound. Only then would she let go. Finding herself under going something she not wish to have to fact. Knowing she need to complete her task as her life depend upon it not only herself but others.

I want to know why you are here, Lady Nephesh not on the Raviah manor.,

Listenig she would have to do. Now this threw a wrench in these manors. As she went back to work waving for Nephesh to take a set. Only to be stop again to the fact that she was wanting to know what she was going. As she begin to type things on her data pad on her waist causing her to hack the network. As information begin to pour over her into her helmet.

what am I doing getting to the bottom of this all, "

The maid she sent made it back to the room that [member="Aurelio Murtix"] was in showing off all the beatiful pieces he had to offer. He would hear the little girl point one out to her mother. "I want that one, mother its so pretty",

 

[Aurelio Murtix]

Aurelio wondered how [member="Countess Calum Teramo"] was doing as he continued to put his wares on display, and for a moment did not register the words of the young girl who made a demand to her mother for the piece in his hands; a velvet red dress lined with shining gold threading. With his fake smile the baron/salesman moved closer to let the young girl inspect it, while glancing about to take notes of his surroundings.

"It is a very beautiful sample, is it not? If you pick this piece we ca work to customize a dress so brilliant that all of her friends will become green with envy!"

He let out a soft laugh before setting the piece aside in a separate pile, then began showing off even more of them as he walked around the room.

"That's one lucky little girl if her mother does buy it for her, so who else would like to look good?"

Aurelio took a look at the young people in the room and hoped that the countess' move wouldn't be too explosive...

 

[Countess Calum Teramo]

As what seem to be the one running the head of it or at less trying to make it seem they was in charge of all the credits for such an under taking. "Oh my this would be lovely wouldn't to have a dress made out of for the ball next mouth."

As her mother looked at her crossed "Lets not talk about the ball as our dear see cousin hasn't been invied by a man friend.", as she begin to look around for a her to be returning. Giving out a sigh as she spoke once again to one of the many servants that was in the room to go look for her.

After which she started to look for the cousin Nephesh what was it any of their business to see where she had gone guessing that this didn't interest her as it seem that this one more plain wanted to value the simpler things in life. After which time it lead her to where thought she her voice whispering only to see that the door was like it should be.

[member="Aurelio Murtix"]

 

[Aurelio Murtix]

The increasingly desperate young man was growing more and more nervous, running out of things to distract with and still unsure as to what exactly his ally was looking for. [member="Countess Calum Teramo"] was not going to let him down...he had to believe that from the very depths of his mind or his will would shatter and probably get them both killed, keeping a strained smile on his face as the other man who was assisting him stood as calmly and as quietly as when they first arrived, stroking his short white beard while glancing about. Aurelio was growing annoyed at the man's stony attitude in the face of all of this, and wondered if the man was actually in on their plan or was simply someone the countess hired to assist in the physical labor. In either case the man wasn't performing well, leaving the baron to improvise all on his own.

"Well if it is for a ball or social gathering, then I would recommend something more like...this to catch the eyes of everyone there while not seeming too gaudy or extravagant."

He pulled out a black velvet piece lined with white, but began to cough heavily as he placed it down and patted his chest with his fist.

"Could I actually bother you all for a glass of wine maybe? This is tiring work after all, and if you indulge me in this I might consider letting a few of these go for a mere fraction of the original price!"

It wasn't original, or the best idea he had come up with, but it would serve to keep their attention on him at least for a few moments to buy more time. Hopefully that maid didn't run into the countess, but if she did Aurelio was confident that she would know how to handle herself.

 

[Nephesh Raivah]

The one waving for him to be poured some wine as asked as the little cousin of Nephesh was already eyeing this with out even have to have to speak a word of anything. That she just had to have this. After she took it in her hand hands very gentle running the fabric through her hands softly. Now making up her mind she wanted this one she spoke to the man. "I will take this one and that one , oh and this one also.", knowing just how much these fabric was going to cause the Lesser House but this wasn't something she wanted to be bothered with if she wanted it she got it.


Nephesh staring at the one with the blue helment on some more it couldn't be her Cousin Calum she look so will so mandalorian in her armor she looked like a ..." Calum, what are you getting to the bottom of.", after that she listen to her tell of everything that had went on. Knowing that she had no reason to doubt her cousin what going on. This puzzled her as to why now she was here as they had really wanted her to visit at this time. Now thinking back all her childhood not even getting a birthday card or a invited to their grand party.

"It is odd no of all the times to have me stay for the summer here.", then it came from her own cousin mouth that she might be in grave danger. This shock her to the core.
