*Regi had pulled out a lock box and began placing the important files into it. The white haired Aussie had to follow Inanna's orders when it came to these files. She wanted to keep them as private as possible only Regi and Inanna were allowed to know everything about them and even in some they didn't have all the details. Standing up after placing all the files in there the man walked out of the Comm Station.
Getting up the 3rd floor he came across an interesting sight...both Reen and James outside the door to Inanna's room. He didn't expect it but it didn't shock him. Walking up to Reen he snatched the file back from the man, the Comm Director knew he had it, hiding it would be no good...it was an endless cycle this was and Regi was kinda used to it but not completely...this was getting a tad old.*
Regi - Reen...take it again and Inanna will order you to leave it alone. If you disobey that you know getting her angry isn't worth the fight. Besides would you want her to go to a digital one that the Kepi could steal? You're forcing her to take that option.
*Keeping his eyes on the man, the Aussie placed the file in a lock box after checking it over. Everything was there, Regi luckily had a good memory on what was placed where. Once in the lock box it was locked. Now they would be stored in Inanna's room. Knocking on the door lightly the Aussie called into the room. There would only be one to answer him.*
Regi - Nebula...open the door, it's Regi.
*There were few allowed in Inanna's room, which is why it had a special locking mechanism...you could only have access to the lock on the inside. Regi and Colleen were allowed to enter the room by Nebula who was basically the door guard and was the other reason the door was open for the doctors. Unless Inanna herself was opening the door...No one knew how she did what she did but she could have Nebula on her shoulders and the door would still open fine.
A moment later the door opened and there purring around the side was the silvery form Nebula. He watched as Regi entered the room closing the door behind him which locked automatically. The Aussie walked over to the young Leader. Looking down he sat on the edge of the bed and moved some of the hair that had fallen into the young woman's face...she looked to be in pain. Petting her hair the man sighed... Leaning over he placed a soft kiss to her forehead, the girl was like a sister to him...it pained him to see her this way.*
Regi - I wish I could ease your pain, Inanna. Me little sheila, you'll get through this...probably a couple days though. I'll come back later, Nebula and time permitting.
*Placing the box on the floor he looked to the cat that was watching him. It was not out of spite or anything similar, he was just watching the Aussie.*
Regi - Take care of this Nebula, you know where to put it. Take care of her alright?
*The cat nodded in response. This was no normal cat, the long tailed normally wild cat was more trusted by Regi then anyone when it came to Inanna. He would make sure the woman was alright. Handing the keys to the lock box over to the cat. The man knew the cat would hide both of them.
Getting up Regi walked to the door pulling on the string that released the locking mechanism that not only locked into the stone wall but on this side of the wall too. There were no locks on the outside to be picked...not that one could pick a thick metal bar.
Opening the door the man closed it behind him and offered a good night to both James and Reen. Walking down to the other hallway the Aussie entered his room. There were two wings lined with rooms. The Right and Left wings. Inanna's was the last door in the Right Wing and the Regi's was the first on the Left one. They were easy enough to find in the end.
Changing, into his night clothing the man found the way to his bed, he wouldn't sleep easily but he had to for everything he and Colleen had to accomplish for Inanna...*
*The night passed without incident. Regi rising about an hour before the meeting. Even James would have to leave his post for that one. He knew Jame had probably stayed awake all night. The white haired man got up and moved to his bathroom for a shower. It would one help wake him up and would be a good way to start the day off.
Once that was done and over with he dawned his normal clothing. Making his way out to the bar. Getting the morning meal he always did, Regi walked up the stairs to the 4th floor. The Bartend was already working on the food for everyone he was always on top of his game. Sitting down at his desk the man began to get the meeting notes together. There was still plenty of time for everyone else to get up and get things together.*

Reen heard someone coming down the hall but he remained in the same position with his eyes closed. He wasn't sure how long he'd slept, but it wasn't long. As the person approached he listened to the pace of the steps.
Too quiet for armor, not as quick as a doctor, too loud for someone stealthy... Regi.
He didn't try to hide the file, he knew Regi knew he had it. He opened his eyes as the file was snatched out of his hand. When Regi mentioned a digital file Reen smiled.
"Gotta say, I'm a little insulted. You're assuming it'd be there for the Kepi. But as long as the file's in there, I'm content."
Reen watched as Regi went inside Inanna's room, catching a glimpse of Inanna's pet. He had always wanted to try to break into Inanna's room, not to take anything, hell not even to get into the room. The door setup created a challenge for him. A unique door with unique security. Unfortunately it led to Inanna's room, whom he respected far too much to invade her privacy. Sighing he put his head down again and tried to rest. He wouldn't be moving for the night, or at any other time unless needed.

Fatal attended breakfast at the bar. Where he didn't enjoy sharing company with others, Fatal didn't always seek to avoid his comrades. As a man doubtful to the cause he fought for, Fatal felt distance was the best he could offer them. What little good it did befriending someone to abandon that person later. Fatal felt no other Noe should contemplate in uncertainty like he did.
Eating with the others at the bar didn't typically suit Fatal. Letting them mind themselves usually worked.
Fatal opted to sit quietly off to the side. The meeting was his next work. From there, he would decide on what to do. Hopefully the other assassin, Sami, had work. Fatal didn't want to squander his time when he felt partially responsible for the Leader being hurt. The meeting would do well in explaining what the Noe lead operatives should know.

James and Reen were on both sides of Inanna's door. As time went by James knew most people were heading to bed. Because they were at base he knew he didn't need to stay standing all night. Won't find any Kepi spies that could even crack the code to Inanna's room. He was only there to make sure nobody tried to pass work onto her like most normally would. That and to Inanna in her room so she could rest. The woman had a nack to be somewhat of a work-a-holic just like her father was.
He could hear Regi's yalling and Jezebel's screech and it just made him shake his head. Seems like Regi found out about the helicoper, that was going to be fun to explain in tomorrow's metting seeing how he had.....'something'....to do with that. He looked back over to Reen to see him looking at his files. Again? Regi was not going to like that. He could see why the man would be a bit worried but can't keep hiding stuff from Regi. Not that he could talk, his files were filled with 'black ink' but he had a good reason for that. Only person allow to look at his files were the Noe leader for reasons unknown to people. He gave a nod to Dr. Shelby and she came near. He remember the mission he was on that got Dr. Shelby involved with the Noe. Not as stealthy as would have hoped, both of them suffered a few wounds but nothing terrible.
Not to long later Regi appeared and like James knew, wasn't to pleased to see Reen holding his files. James stayed quiet seeing how this had nothing to do with him or the safety of Inanna. James gave Regi a salute as his passed and went back to his stance once Regi went in and a salute when Regi came out. weather Regi, Inanna or Colleen liked it or not, James would salute them because they were his commanding officers in his mind. Some old habits just can't die. Once Regi left James looked at the time and noted no one else should try and show up with work. It was a good time to retire to his room.
James - Rest up Reen. We have a busy day tomorrow.
That was all the man said as he walked by. He wasn't sure if the man would stay out all night or what but James knew there was no longer a reason to stand there with the entire base asleep. If they were in the field it's be a different story, but here at base if was safe to get some shut eye. His room was only one down so it wasn't a long walk. Once in his room he locked it. A lock like the one on Inanna's but only Inanna, Colleen,Regi and Dr. Fields knew how to get in. One in he removed his armour to reveal a body suit and another ski mask, he then covered his eyes with a visor, and got in bed to go to sleep.

When the helicopter landed and the medical team began taking care of Inanna. Sami exited after Reen and James before handing over the vial that contained what remained of the antidote to one of the doctors before they left to treat the Noe leader.
The young assassin then headed to the third floor to change out of her uniform after making sure there was nothing she could do to help. Once the elevator stopped and the door dinged open, Sami stepped out into the lounge area of the third floor She was walking bay the bar towards the left hall where her room was located, when she heard a voice call her. Stopping, the girl’s attention was drawn to Naiiko as the ninja approached. Sami then answered the woman’s questions, explaining everything that had happened at the ruins. A light hint of regret was in her voice for not being able to keep Inanna from getting poisoned.
After a while of talking to Naiiko, Sami continued to her room where she changed out of her uniform and took a shower, trying to relax, but to no avail. For an hour, she stood there, letting the water beat on her. A while later, The girl left the bathroom in a towel, before changing into a pale pink pajamas and fell back into bed. It had been a long day and it was late, so she tried to sleep.
By the time morning came around, Sami only gotten 2 hours of sleep. The rest of the night was restless. With a sigh, the girl got up, cleaned up and made her way to the meeting.

*As Regi waited for the others to wake up and come to the meeting he was soon joined by the other Lead Noe, Colleen. By this time he had finished his breakfast/lunch/food of some kind and had been waiting on the rest on the Lead Operatives. Only the Noe Lead showed up. She was dressed in her suit and was looking a bit worse for wear. There was something up and as the white haired man was about to ask, the blonde held up her hand to silence him. She would explain. Getting up next to him she placed her hands on the back of her chair. Taking a breath, Colleen decided it was time to let the Comm Director know what is on her mind. It would not be what he wanted to hear.* Colleen - Regi, the meeting begins in 20 minutes and the only one I have seen up is Fatal. *The Aussie blinked at her a few times. Part of him was disbelieving this but since it came from Colleen there was no doubting it's truth. Regi allowed his head to hit the control panel in front of him...Seriously, this was a bit on tedious side for the two leads to be dealing with right now. Sighing the man lifted his head form the metal plate in front of him to look at the other. Regi - Well only one thing left to do, I suppose. *With that Regi hit a few buttons and suddenly sounded "Reveille" on all the speakers in the Noe Union, save for Inanna's room which was made to be a bit more sound proof. If this didn't wake them up then nothing would...but a swift kick from the upset Aussie.* (Reveille - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83ozOX9l7M cool

Reveille? Wow, guess I'm not as late as I thought. The speakers obnoxiously blaired everyone's favorite "get your a** out of bed.. now!" song for quite some time, allowing it to cycle through in its entirety at least ten times. Shelby was just finishing dressing herself at that point anyhow. The shower had done its job to wake her up, but there really wasn't enough time to eat. No matter, she told herself she'd pick up something brunchy at the bar later. She hoped Sam didn't make anything for her yet. Wasn't the first nor the last time she'd skip a meal.
Soon enough she was out the door and heading to the briefing room upstairs. Anticipation remained on her mind as she walked. Even though Regi did ease some fears, there were still a lot of unanswered questions. Shelby only hoped there would be a positive outcome to all of them.
She knocked on the door before she entered, hoping to find a room full of people but it looked like she wasn't a straggler, in fact she found no one there besides Regi and Colleen. She nodded to the co-commanders after closing the door behind her. "Regi.. Colleen.. Anywhere in particular you want me to sit?" She always asked, it became a bit of a habit.

James only got a few hours of sleep. He had a hard time sleeping knowing Inanna was the way she was. Only thing he could do at a time like this was blow of some steam the only way he knew how, the firing range. He didn't bother to put it armour back on thinking he wouldn't be there but for like 20 minutes or so. He straped on his katana, grabbed a pistol and his rifle and headed to the firing range.
At the range he worked more on his long rang with the Kepi his missed. Yes it was a bit because Reen opened fire but that shouldn't have mattered,at least in James' eyes. He also worked on finding hidden opratives. He figure if he could've found the Kepi marksman, Inanna wouldn'thave gotten posioned. He soon lost track of time at the range untill her head Reveille playing. Surely he wasn't late, it couldn't have been that time already. He looked down at the time and saw it was 20 till. Great Regi seemed to be getting impaitent. He then emptied his clip and head to the meeting.
It didn't take him long to get their as he walked in right after Dr Shelby. He gave a salute to Regi and Colleen before takeing his normal seat in the front. He knew, Regi was upset....this was going to be a funny meeting. Luckly for him it didn't bother him, he's use to much worse back in his days.

*Regi and Colleen were having a cup of coffee. The meeting room always had a coffee maker in here. Inanna insisted on it because she could drink nearly four or five pots a day...the caffeine didn't seem to effect her but give the red head a nasty headache when she was off of it for a while. Which was scary.
It was then that Shelby entered the room, soon followed after by James. Lovely now they start taking things seriously. The Comm Director took a sip of the black coffee...he just knew today was going to be one of 'those' days. Turning to the door the man couldn't help but iterate one of the Leaders normal rules...why when she was awake nothing like this ever happened?*
Regi - Finally, we're getting some life. Inanna did say she wanted people in here half an hour early so we could make sure people were up.
*The blonde Staffing Lead chuckled, Regi was a bit annoyed. It seemed when Inanna was in need of time off everyone else became more lax in such procedures. The man went back to his coffee forgetting that Shelby asked him a question. Some days under stress Regi was less friendly in the mornings...
Colleen turned to the woman and nodded. She would take care of things for the Aussie. He would need a helping hand for the moments...he did get some bad news when he went over his notes.*
Colleen - Have a seat where ever you wish there my dear.

As James left and his comment to Reen he looked up and nodded.
What'd it look like I was doing...
He knew James meant well but something in him wouldn't let him move. He knew Inanna was safe, and he knew she'd be out for a while, but his feeling of guilt wouldn't let him move. If he had been faster, if he'd have listened to Inanna, if he was stronger, this could've been avoided. So he stayed next to Inanna's door all night, leaning against the wall. He had the unique ability of being able to sleep anywhere, at any time, in any position. On long heists if he ever needed to lay low for a long period he'd often sleep, setting a small vibrating alarm on his wrist. That's also how he'd developed the ability to sleep so lightly.
He wasn't sure how long it had been since he had last closed his eyes, he didn't have an alarm set, but he slowly opened his eyes as Reveille started playing over the intercom. Taking a deep breath he stretched and rubbed his eyes. He looked over at Inanna's door before making his way to the briefing room.
"Keep her safe and in bed Nebula."
Making his way down the halls he yawned. He'd have to get something to eat after the meeting. Opening the doors he stepped off to the side and resumed his position of leaning against the wall. At the moment he didn't feel like sitting down.

The blonde kindly thanked Colleen but first things first. Unable to resist the strong smell of the coffee, Shelby migrated over, pouring herself a cup before grabbing a seat in the front row, allowing one seat space between herself and James. The black coffee was strong; perfect for keeping focused during this briefing. It was obvious Regi was not in the best of spirits, but then neither was Colleen. Shelby felt inept without a weapon in her hand. She was a psychiatrist for goodness sake. She was certain most could handle everyday problems and stress, but her office, segregated from the rest of her room, almost always remained empty. Most of the operatives had always approached things this way, thinking that talking to her for professional help was a sign of weakness. The doctor understood, she did the same. It was simply part of the culture.

Jezebel heard Regi's damned music blaring over the loud speakers. dropping the controller onto the bed she sighed, stretching she straightened her legs falling from the opening in the air ducts, straight to the ground. She rolled around and grabbed Wilson, looking deep into his drawn on eyes she sighed a flung him across the room. Standing up and as if to get revenge Wilson smacked her in the back of her head.
"Damned volleyball." she glared at it. Pulling on her coat she caught her reflection in the mirror. She looked horrible, because of her her Nanni had been hurt, if only she had been a little faster. Maybe.... but maybe doesn't matter anymore. She looked to the door only to remember that she had it blocked by a huge book case. Thumbing threw the binders on the case she grabbed one flipped the cover opened and smirked. Tossing the 3 inch binder into the air duct she crawled in after it.
Jezebel continued through the ducts until she found the right drop off point. Carelessly flinging herself down into the meeting room, she dislocated her left arm.... again. Slinking off the table she rolled into her seat while sliding the horrible pink sparkly binder towards Regi.

*Both Colleen and Regi looked a little bit shocked as the table right next to them. They knew Jezebel would be making an entrance they just were not sure where...looks like after they would be looking into moving things around a little bit so she wouldn't hurt herself again.*
Colleen - I am thinking I should get some cushions to place there.
*The Aussie just nodded, still a bit wide-eyed. What was Jezebel thinking? On the other hand Regi didn't know if he wanted to be told. It could damage his out looking on life further then it already was. Seeing as he has been the Comm Director for how many years here, that was saying a great deal. But even he didn't want the crazed getting any worse.
Over the years he made note that the girl has gotten better through she still has some of her less desirable tendencies still intact. Something surprising, most thought she would never get better but they were grateful to see they were wrong.*
Regi - Probably...
*Looking to the binder that had been passed his way, it looked like the creator of the bedazzler got ahold of this thing. Using a pencil he carefully opened the binder up to check it's contents. The first couple pages he couldn't read but curiosity had bitten him and the Aussie wanted to know what this book contained.*
Regi - Jezebel? What is this?

Everyone's timing confused Fatal. While not a real chef, the bartender prepared a large quantity of food. Against the unnecessary fanfare, breakfast awaited the others. Fatal couldn't feel bad now. He wanted to, but it wasn't his place. It was just food. Taking it personal was childish.
An empty plate went to the bartender. Fatal needed a solid from him. Sitting around an empty bar meant Fatal missed that thirty minute curtain the Leader wanted.
"Thank you. The meal was splendid."
That short acknowledgement and Fatal headed off after his light breakfast. To the fourth floor, he casually entered the briefing room. A few were here already. Fatal certainly pushed it with his timing. Opposite of Reen, Fatal leaned against an available wall. No cowboy hat this time. If someone wanted to blame him, they could look into his eyes. It didn't seem that would happen. Even so, Fatal embraced the thought. The Kepi didn't deserve all the blame when Fatal pushed them so far. Had he not threatened the Marksman's life, the Marksman may have hesitated. Fatal knew the Noe's future would be brighter with a Kepi like that dead.

Sami had left her room a few minutes after getting dressed in her normal lace up blouse and a black semi-mini skirt. Making her way to the bar area, the girl noticed Fatal sitting alone like he normally done. She knew he liked to be alone about as much as James did, so Sami didn’t bother him.
Reaching the bar, the assassin looked at the clock. Seeing she had a little bit of time before the meeting, Sami asked for a cup of hot cocoa. Strangely enough, she never got the taste of coffee. Way too bitter for her liking, no matter how much sweetener or cream was added.
Once Sam had set the cup in front of the girl, Sami thanked him then got up and with a good morning to Fatal, made her way the elevator.
After reaching the fourth floor, Sami walked the hall towards the meeting room just as the came to life with the trumpet. The sudden music caused the girl to jump and throw the cup of cocoa. The cup shattered at hitting the wall.
“Damn it…”
Sighing, Sami went back down to the bar and asked Sam for a rag. When he gave her the rag, she returned and started clean up the mess. By the time she finished, Reen had walked by. Wrapping up the broken glass in the rag, Sami finally walked into the meeting room and with an apologetic bow, took her seat by James
