"Go away," she said. Her face was stained with tears and her clothes ripped and stained with blood. "I can't believe I trusted you."
She heard what he said, she didn't have the energy to look up at him or make a face, she could barely even speak to him.
"I wouldn't have done what you did. Once you knew who I was you could have just told me and then left. You didn't have to go through with it. Or you could have just said that I had nothing to do with anything else except for Manalism. But you didn't, you turned me over."
Fresh tears came to her eyes and she couldn't stop them from falling down her cheeks.
"I take back everything I said."
OCC gotta work in the morning. night guys!

I frown a little and stand behind my desk, crossing my arms over my chest and looking down slightly at her.
"Well, I've recently decided to open some new mines in Latin and South America... As you know Allmart is our main supplier for... Supplies, and with these new additions I'm going to need to up our usual order. I need you..."
I point at her.
"To make that happen, Smoothie."

"You don't know what suffering is. You think you are tortured? Well, every day of my life is torture. Having a wife life mine is torture. Working for these religious nuts is torture. You don't know the first thing about it. I was captured at one time too. At least you are free. If I don't do what I'm supposed to, I'll just get killed. So, don't cry over yourself. You've got it better than most people." Tristan snaps at her.
He frowns and turns his back away from the door. "Yeah, I wanted to be your friend. I want to be happy too. I can't even have friends here. Well, whatever. I guess you can just be that way."
He shakes his head and starts to walk away.
"Some people are just so selfish. They just don't understand how hard it is for me."
With that he disappears down a dark hall and leaves Linnea alone.

Tuvi pulls out her personal PC and sets it to take notes of their conversation. "Okay, Cresty. When will these supplies be needed by?"
She ignores the fact that Calithin is calling her Smoothie. No one ever gets her name correct. Maybe she was a little mean by saying he wasn't one of the Blessed. He is but he attitude is annoying her.

"... Cresty..."
I walk around my office and consider a time frame for the deliveries.
"It's going to take a few months to get the mines up and running... I'd say in about 6 months the extra supplies should start coming in. I'm sure you can manage that, yes Tootsie?"
I stand behind her and look over her shoulder at the notes she's making on the laptop.

The dull thump that echos through the street is like a beautiful song to Peter's ears. Everything is in place and events are passing the point of no return. He sent a new message to Tuvi, instructing her to make sure that the acquisitions went smoothly. Things should, at this point, be nearly automated.
He sent a seperate message to Dinari informing him of events. Farther more, he needed to make his public statement about reforming Cuba and the people therein soon. Timing was worked out properly and the schedule was flexable (to an extent) so even Dollar would be able to follow the plan at this point.
Pocketing his phone he set off. He needed to do some cleaning. At this point people running was what mattered. He was in citizen disgusie and as long as he kept his powers contained he appeared as anyone. A few mysertious beatings and home invasions would only speed the process along...

Alexei gets the message, and immediately calls to get a boat ready for Cuba. He calls Cillian and leaves a message. "A boat is going to arrive on the Vironniemi peninsula. We have a small, secret port there that moves some drugs in and out of Europe. Meet me there, and we'll travel to Cuba and see what they have to offer us."
"Ignore me...then say jump Mac? Whatever. I wonder if he's going to bring the whore runner with him. She was interesting on the eyes. She may be of use later down the lines. Perhaps. Eh. Whatever will make my master pleased pleases me in turn. If either of them screw this up I will eat them without a moments hesitation...or melt off their faces."
He smiled as his serpentine eyes changed to a golden glaze. He would be waiting at the dock for Alexei to arrive. |

"I am sure that can be worked out Cali." Tuvi says. She turns around to look Calithin in the eye with a smug smile. These little nicknames are kinda amusing... in an annoying way. Her PDA goes off but she hits quiet.
"You do know, however, depending on the size of your new order there will be a price increase. What is reasonable for you?"

Alexei arrives at the port and smiles a a very forced smile at Cillian.
"Nice to see you're already here! Lets go."
Alexei climbs into a fairly large speed boat with Cillian. Starting the motor he pushes off and they set off for Cuba.

I walk around to my desk and pull a calculator out of the top drawer. I pretend to be doing calculations on it... But I in no way am. I hate math, cannot do math, and would never really calculate anything. I am a strict rounder.
"Well... Hmm... Carry the 4... I should think that we need about a 10% increase in our supply order, so a 10% increase in payment would be satisfactory, Teddi."
I push a few more random buttons on the calculator and when 'error' pops up on the screen I just toss it aside and sit down in my chair.
"I like dancing, by the way. And cookie dough icecream. Just saying."

"I'll discuss that with Dinari later, Calbin." Tuvi replies. She saves her notes and closes her PC before placing it back in her purse.
"I like long walks on the beach and Phish Ice Cream... Just so you know..."

"Those are mysterious interests, Ms. Toolah Renee."
I stand up again and yawn, stretching my arms out a little bit.
"Well, thank you very much for coming to meet with me... I'm glad we've got all that settled. Just send over or bring over or whatever over the new draft of our contract and I'll be sure to sign it and get this deal done."
I pause, looking around the room a little before setting my eyes on her.
"You know, you do your job very well. I don't think Dinari appreciates you enough... If you ever feel like coming to work here, I'm very sure we'd all be happy to have you at Crest Mining. And, of course, be willing to pay you what you're worth... I know I've never had an assistant who could work out my deals for me. It would be nice."
I shrug and smile a little.
"Just something for you to consider."

"Hm. While I am flattered by the offer, I am afraid I cannot abandon Dinari. He simply treats me far too well." Tuvi replies before standing. In these heels, she is still a bit shorter than him.
"But again, Mr. Calithin Crest, I am flattered. I'll be sure to discuss this with Dinari and get back to you as soon as possible. Have a good day."
She turns and walks away, waving over her shoulder.

"Suit yourself. Thank you again for meeting with me under such short notice... Anytime you feel like coming to work for us-- the offer still stands. Have a nice day."
I close the door behind her and go to my desk. I pick up the phone and make a few phone calls to our accounting department to make sure I wasn't incorrect in my non-calculations, and luckily, I was not.
After that I lay down on the floor in my office and stare up at the ceiling. I consider the work I will have to do in the months ahead and accidentally drift off to sleep...

Once Tuvi returns to the office, she prints out a copy of the notes from the meeting and gives them to Dinari. "I think you should read over these. If a contract needs to be drawn up, let me know. Okay Dinari?"
With that done, Tuvi returns to her suite and checks her cellphone. She text back to Peter that everything is already done and ready. She even double checks before sending the text. Sighing, she goes and gets back into her shower. The hot water feels good right about now...
