Caedo reached the door of the manor and began to question his intention. His hesitation seemed natural after all it was the first bounty he had been on. The door of the manor was large and he admired its gothic beauty. Caedo began to rethink his approach concluding that stealth was his best option. He thought that he would enter the manor at night when everyone inside would be asleep.

Reincarnate nodded to both Damien and Sage as if to say 'I will meet up with you two some time later.' A step backwards and a small smile was the last they would see before she turned on her heel and made the voyage back up the stairs.
Reincarnate's soft patter on the stone serenaded her as she made her way to the rooms. She had told Drake that she would go to talk to him and she would keep her promise. It was the perfect timing after all because she had a small appointment to meet with someone else. Therefore their talk would be cut short and hopefully nothing too serious would be spoken between them. She cringed inwardly to think of talking about any such thing that was considered serious.

Valentine and Eliv seemed to have given their guides the slip. Quite by accident, but Eliv and Valentine had got caught up in the scenery, surveying their surroundings, marking off all the exits mentally. In a low whisper they had decided that they would not tell any one their real names. Valentine would go by Vlad and Eliv would go by Elie. Simple, really.
They also agreed that if any one that they perhaps recognized was lurking around they would quickly be on their way.
Valentine and Eliv spotted the entrance, stairs leading to large black doors. They both vaguely wondered if they should just show themselves in or if someone was going to be waiting for them. Eliv silently cursed the man and woman that had took off without them.

She watched amused by the small expressions playing through the twins eyes.Such raw emotion to be played on but for another time perhaps.Swiftly coming up behind them she raised her eye-brow slightly realizing she was a little taller than them which was a first....ah so quick to judge...Don't be alarmed everyone does..Before she never did see their faces all that well but now she knew all she needed to know.Twins eh,keeping track could be difficult till I figure out what they can do...

Valentine turned on his heel to find their guide behind them. They weren't quite ready to go in. They had to search the perimeter of the grounds and perhaps throw off those who were watching them from the cover of the forest of the reason why they were there. Valentine and Eliv sought sanctuary, but they didn't need to know that.
Eliv didn't like the way to woman studied them, the realization of them being twins must have became apparent. He wanted to say something about how people in the villages he came from weren't so confident, but decided that would not only earn him an elbow in the ribs, but would probably result in a scuffle on grounds. That was usually why Valentine did all of the talking. Eliv exhaled, then inhaled and held it in. This was his way of making himself not snap out some rude response.
Valentine patted his brother, a smile playing on his features before looking to the woman. "Lady, I truly must inquire, what name is it that you go by?" A charming silk texture in his voice came forth.

Turning her gaze from the two infront of her she looked out among the grounds,the scent from before terribly vile and strong.Not turning back tot hem her reply came deadly cold but soft. ...They call me Crow..Turning back to them she gave her usual pleasant blank face.Slightly tightening the bandage around her eyes she pondered on what the other twin would of said but waved it off and walked ahead of them a bit before waiting at the main door...What shall I be adressing you two as?...False identities are troublesome no?A soft chuckle emitting from her throught before folding her arms over her chest,her head slightly tilted in the shadows as she awaited some kind of response.

"Crow..." Eliv said, tasting the name and finding he didn't much care for it. He envisioned her sprouting black wings and swooping away. That just goes to show what he thought of their temporary 'guide'.
"Crow. Quite an unusual name." This was a compliment more so than an insult. "I, Lady Crow, go by Vladimir. Though you may call me Vlad." Valentine suspected that she didn't believe this to be his real name, but it didn't change anything. They were going by different names until they were sure of the people who resided in the Manor were allies and not foes.
"Elie," Eliv offered, his eyes now roaming around.

She raised a brow at them for a moment but let it pass as quickly as it began,straighting herself from her slightly hunched form she earned a soft sickening crack as she did so.Her bones shifting into place before she cast her glance back down on them. ..I do not care much for being called a Lady when I am not...More so it is the mistress who has earned such a thing,not I...Crow will do just fine...for now..Turning towards the main doors she easily opened them revealing the rather decorative room that held a comfortable atmosphere. ..I would leave you both unattended if it weren't for them...Either I have someone else who is better suited at this than I show you around..Or I shall continue doing so,the choice is yours...Looking back at them she wondered who would still be lurking about to show them around.Soon she would aquire Reincarnates attention and as politely as possible have her set different jobs to the higher ranks to jobs more suited for them.She could feel her left eye twitch in slight annoyance while her finger tips tingled.Her hands aching to grab any weapon to beat those waiting not far from the grounds into bloody meat sacks full of cartilage and bone.

Caedo wondered around the grounds of the manor to find that he wasn’t the only one on the exterior. He saw three strangers in the distance and began to worry about being caught. He decided to clime a tree in order to eliminate any chance of being found. The tree rejected Caedo in such a way that he fell several feet before crashing into the ground.

He walked out of the kitchen and headed upstairs silently, He let his footsteps remain heavy and easy to hear.

Sighing heavily she went inside not caring if she got in trouble or not,she just needed a drink.Noting the heavy footsteps on the stairs as she went into the kitchen.Snatching herself a glass of water she stopped at the bottom of the stairs with an eye brow raised. "..Such carelessness for the welfare of this manor...Pity.." Yawning widely she flashed a moment more than one pair of sharp fangs,shaking ehr head slightly to wake herself up she took a seat at the bottom of the stairs.A loud thump echoing in the room as she gulped down half of her glass of water.

Being dismissed the twins took it in their own hands to search the perimeter. This was much better, for they would not have to answer any questions about their motives. And no one would think to harm them quite yet in such an open area.
Valentine motioned that he would take the side nearest the woods first and Eliv would go the other direction. They'd meet up in the back and then switch positions. They made some kind of strange exchange of stones of some sort that were the colors of liquid emeralds and clouds. "Potius mori quam foedari, Gemina."
Valentine searched every thing with his eyes, the trees, the stone walls, the earth, even the sky. He believed it was best to memorize everything. The belief had saved his neck several times.
Eliv on the other hand always looked and studied what he thought were the important parts. How many exits did they have, was the outer wall thick or decaying, what lies to the east and the west, the north and the south? He didn't bother examining everything, which had saved his own neck several times as well. Hell, if he spent all the time his brother did some times, they'd both be dead.

From her position on the stairs she stood up with a tired sigh,glancing around her to find it empty once again.Slowly making her way over to the window she looked through the glass to find that it was a lovely night out.Remaining in place she examined the area surrounding the border line of the manor walls,a slight glare settling into her eyes. "..Hmph...no manners what so ever..can't expect more from hunters..."Lightly resting her hands on the windows edge she kept a close eye on all surroundings for movements.
