"Such as?" Khonsu asked. They were stuck waiting here, after all.

Rose looked between the two in front of her, and shook her head. Idiots. "Your heads aren't on your shoulders it seems. No, we can't be running and hiding forever. Something has to be done to take him down."

"We just asked what there was to keep busy in the bunker," Tyler said. "Are you suggesting we plan, then?"

"Right." Khonsu looked elsewhere, slightly annoyed.

Istumi ducked around a corner, breathing heavy as a cop car meandered past. She blinked back tears, frustrated and slightly scared. Everyone was gone and everyone smart was in hiding. How was she supposed to find her sister like this?

The secretary nodded and kept walking quietly. The mansion was huge, empty and ominous. Most people here spoke in whispers, not willing to disturb the commanding silence.

"I think you should rest," Tyler said with a sigh. He was a bit frustrated as well, but appreciated having a safe place to hide, if temporarily.

Carpinello switched off the TV as he heard a knock at the door. "Come in," He said, bored, before turning to face the doorway.

Itsumi ducked behind a fence as cops ran past. After, she peeked out, and gazed upon the scene. Two dead, a sign of a struggle...more probably arrested. She needed to find somewhere safe, at least, but she had come on nothing, with no one to rely on here. Stupid, Itsumi, what were you thinking?

Carpinello looked down and then up at Sapphire. "I made you're appointment, I would be careful how you act," He said. "But I'll humor you," He sat forward. "As long as you play my game as well," He turned the chess board so white was facing her, black him, and indicated she should make her move.

Itsumi eventually wandered into a vacant cul de sac of less than pleasant houses, looking around. Maybe she could camp out here.

"You'll find there's little I don't know," Carpinello said, nudging a pawn out as well, across the board from hers. "Putting innocents safely in jail so the real war can begin," he said, watching her to gauge her reaction.

Carpinello moved a different pawn one space out, leaving the other for her to take. Why was she lecturing him? "So why are you saying it?" He asked. The media was as mum about Facina as the world had been about concentration camps during world war 2, the governor was well paid, the congressmen as well. He was one of the richest men in America, a multi-billionaire. Owning a fifth of the vineyards in Italy, the city of Florence in his pocket, Facina was simply a play thing for him. How he had proven his worth to his father, taking over Facina, then he had gone back to Florence and killed him, taking over their gang as he should.

Itsumi looked around at the houses, unawares that she was actually around where Kenny's original base was. Why was this place so decrepit? She knew Facina was a shit hole but still...they let places get this bad?

(Kenny did not, Youre not anywhere near Itsumi)
Carpinello moves his knight out, capturing the pawn as he had wanted. His knight was in no danger either. “You haven’t been playing this game as long as I have,” He said.

Itsumi sighed. She'd have no luck here. She leaned against the wall of a house, wiping her face. "Dammit Skyla..." She mumbled.

(Wtf is a wizard whaaaaat? ? ? ?)
