"It's up to you how long this takes or not," The guard said to her. "So I'd keep your facial reactions to yourself."

"Clear," the guard said, handing her the briefcase. "Tread carefully in this town, ma'am, else you may be back on less friendly terms," He said in warning.

(I've got nothing left to do)

(TS?)

(I'm fine with whatever)

(Also fine with whatever)

(I want a week? Everyone okay with a Week?)

(Yeah sure)

Itsumi has garnered quite a name for herself in the week that followed, not that it was her name. “An Asian snake” is what the officers had taken to calling her. Normally she wouldn’t be quite as brash as to openly kill guards and officers, but she was trying to get noticed by the people she really needed help from. This Kenny, or his henchman at least. It was a fairly simple tactic she followed, stick to the shadows, a quick knife when their back is turned, and fleeing back into alleys and side ways before they could catch more than a glimpse. The larger groups succomber to homemade bombs full of shrapnel that became deadly when launched at high speeds. The mostly vacant houses left her with plenty of household supplies to make bombs and not use her bullets.

Tyler was antsy at this point. “We should leave, there’s no way they’re still as active,” he said.

Skyla nurses that hangover for days, but now was back to the same monotony, really wishing she hadn’t finished her whole bottle.

After the raids had passed over them with a relative lack of trouble, a few of the more quiet entrances had been reopened. Activity was still low though, as they didn't want to give away their position. Kenny knew he had to update the council soon, but it was hardly the time to call up a meeting. It was better they all stayed quiet and avoided any risks until they found an opening to take out Carpinello. Kenny would stick to the contract if he could, but he was being railed too hard to let this continue on the hope that a single boy could solve it soon.

Brett could be heard in the hall from time to time, but he didn't actually visit Skyla any more since the first time he did. Mafdet/Sekhmet visited daily, and it seemed at this point that either Babi loved his job and just slept on the stool he always sat on, or Babi was not always the same person. Same obscuring uniform and similar body, from what Skyla could tell, but most likely a different person.

Khonsu had disappeared during the night of the first night they stayed there, stating that he needed to get back to work, regardless of the risks.

Itsumi had indeed caught the attention of the Black Dirt, and they were looking to establish contact with her when it was most advantageous to them.

Jason sighed and said "I'm going in the sewers again to find him. Who knows, 12th times the charm right?"
