Rose frowned as Carpinello approached closer. It would be nice to whip out her gun and shoot him, but she figured his instincts would be faster than her bullet. What a shame.

Carpinello studied him for a moment, before smirking. "Very well. I've been keeping the gravesite clean and well protected. I came by to give you the invitations to the dinner party I'm holding for all you leaders in a month's time, if you're all alive by then," He tilted his head with a chuckle. "If you could hand them out." He tossed a stack of envelopes on the table and headed for the door. Itsumi stepped out of the way, her head down and eyes adverted. Tyler stood, watching his father leave. A dinner party..?

Seker raised an eyebrow, but stayed quiet.

"Ah, my apologies, I zonked right out for a minute there." Seker said with a dumb smile and moved.

Carpinello left, getting into a car waiting outside. Tyler grit his teeth, but looked through the evelopes. Tyler, Rose, Kenny, Jason, Andy, even Skyla, each name on their own envelope. "A month to figure out what's going on," He muttered.

Itsumi was thorough confused. "Was that your dad?" She asked. Tyler nodded. So that was the mastermind.

Tyler set out four mugs. “Don’t be so pessimistic,” He chided. “That’s plenty of time.”

"Poor place to discuss plans, isn't it? Seker chimed in.

Seker coughed, looking at the asian girl. "As I said."

Tyler glanced at Itsumi. “Mmm, you go on, I have some stuff to discuss,” he replied to Rose. “There should be some stuff in Kim’s room you can wear.”

Itsumi held Tyler’s gaze. She knew well enough that they probably wouldn’t talk around her. “I’m just here to find my sister,” she said. “And if you help me, I can help you,” She said. “You could easily sell information to the next person who offered more help,” Tyler replied.

Andy looked out at the lake thinking, as Jason sat next to him. "Something on your mind?"

Andy sighed and said "You know what."

"I'm sorry man. I wish there was something I can do." Jason said quietly.

"Maybe it shouldn't fall to you" Andy stated looking at Jason. "I run a multi billion dollar criminal enterprise. Yet we've been embaressed by one little traitor, cafe workers, and a relic trying for a last run of glory. What the fuck are we doing?"

Jason sighed "Crime doesn't pay."

"Sometimes it does, I'm threw screwing around. I am not waiting, and I will do as many bribes and deals I have to get my Skyla back. I've already sent a mass call. I'm borrowing your mansion for a meeting. Do not interupt, do not object, and sit quietly" Andy stated "I'm getting my Skyla back, and kicking Carpenello out of my city. He's out of touch and out of date."

Tyler looked to Seker, seemingly unbothered. He would never said anything that actually mattered here, besides, she was just a kid. "Cream or sugar?" He asked.

Itsumi frowned. This was just annoying.

Skyla sighed but nodded. "Yeah, I know," She said. She didn't really know if she could trust what they said or not, they had kidnapped and imprisoned her after all.

Rosa sat down in a nearby chair, and observed Itsumi quietly. There were definitely facial features that were the same as Skyla's.
