Welcome to Gaia! ::

Lydia was not sure why Neko seemed to be able to read the situation so well, but she had. The psychic was afraid that if Will went in, he would not come out. At least Lydia had a small amount of protection from Rogue; Will did not have that implied garuntee. Then Neko suggested that they go in together. Both Will and her? But if they both died, who would take care of Aurora? What would happen to her? She would grow up without a mother or father...wait. Neko had mentioned something about hiding in plain sight. The young mother thought on what for awhile before another idea popped into her head.

"Mischief." Looking around at everyone, she knew that none of them knew what she was talking about. "My cat, her name is Mischief. She follows me almost everywhere, and Rogue knows of her. Neko, you said you could turn into a cat. Could you also somehow alter your cat form so that you look like Mischief? Rogue would not be suspicious of my pet following me around, even into Las Noches."

"Hmm...pose as your cat? That might just work. I can't alter my cat form per se, but I can probably make Rogue think I'm your pet, esspecially if she already expects her to be with you, which I'm assuming is the case from what you've said." Neko said, smiling a bit as Will praised his wife. Well, she had thought out a pretty brilliant plan, albeit with a little help, and she was more or less their ticket to seeing Rogue. Perhaps helping to save her had been just a little bit more than a good deed.

"Now...when do we put this into action, and what information will we try to get out of Rogue? Also, I'd feel a little safer if I knew that some backup wouldn't be too far away if things turn ugly. I can see what Tainted I can get to do this; more than a few are good friends of mine and will do what I ask. Myyth and Dusk, do you think you could get some of your Lycans as back up, preferably ones that can heal? And Will, do you think you could get your Hunters to provide cover fire if push comes to shove?" Neko bit her lower lip in thought. What else could they do to ensure that this wouldn't become a suicide mission? Her husband would kill her again if she got herself killed.

"My my, the lycans don't have many of their own people to help out" Kuro couldn't keep quiet for any longer "Have to ask for hunters to help you out, I thought this was a team effort" he glared at her "Typical of the lycans to be leaving most of the work up to both the tainted and the hunters" Kuro leans against the wall once again "I do believe this whole war started between you and the vampires, not us" he continued to glare at Myyth.

Myyth smirked at Kuro smugly. "And one as old as you should know the history...... Unless age brings the frailty I smell on you. T'would explain your personal lack of knowledge of even the basis of our cluture." Glancing back at the others she shrugged. "Healing is not a valued talent among us, regardless of my personal feelings."

She leaned back and locked eye with Kuro again. "As for the work, 'tis a plan you kind's making, and relies on the specific talents of those here. If you do not care for it, alter it." She shook her head. "That Rogue may come alone says nothing of the others that may follow or be sent."

"What are our plans for containment? Even to assume she breaks trust with her own kind," Myyth snorted contemptuously, "There is no reason to assume she would not tell them of meeting us, or that she will not be followed by those who would tell. To ensure others of her kind at least are not a threat I do have someone to watch the perimeter and follow up on anything untoward."

Will folded his hands and placed his chin upon them, leaning into the table in deep thought. "Hmmm, Gail could probably spare her assistant, Elliot. He's a trained EMT and field medic, going out in the field where Gail can't. He should prove invaluable. And if I shuffle things around at our various facilities, I could easily provide up to two dozen trained mercs, along with whatever Hunters I can recruit for the mission. Needless to say, I'll be there as backup, and where I go I can imagine Krii and Kerri will as well. We can also probably count on Skiaska wanting to have Lydia's back. So that should make for at least twenty-nine or so people. I've been to Las Noches before, and I'm fairly familiar with the surrounding area. It would be easy to place hidden sniper teams on the surrounding rooftops, and any nearby alleyways can be rigged with booby traps or blocked off with vehicles. In addittion to personnel, I can throw in half a dozen combat-fitted SUV's, a few Hummers, and a couple of large vans for transport. The teams can be armed with the standard vamp-killing loads, along with non-lethal armaments. I don't care how tough you are, if you get hit by a rubber bullet from a .50 caliber sniper rifle at only fifty to a hundred yards away, you're going to get knocked down. If we proceed with capture as an option, once Rogue is taken down Alex has a new invention we can use for detainmnt; essentially it's a full body straight jacket made out of reinforced titanium alloy, impossible to slip out of or break free from once it's on. Finally we have various pieces of surveilance equipment such as directional microphones and the like, which we can use to monitor the situation."

With a sigh, Will leaned back in his chair, hands now folded behind the back of his head. "So, those are the resources that I at least can readily bring to bear. Everything else is up to how we decide to proceed."

Neko sighed, sounded almost amused. "There used to be a time when we could all meet and not have people interrupt...I wonder what happened to that." Again, the Tainted elder sounded slightly amused, perhaps thinking of her own love and how she wished she could see him right then.

Jaden wagged his tail happily not feeling nearly as threatened as he may have a decade ago. "I'm going to go eat someone first though." he said nuzzling the smaller Lycan. "I'm so hungry..." A blank expression crossed over his features momentarily as he remembered a few things that might be worth noting. "Oh yeah. There's also a new Lycan running around looking for room and board, I told him to go to the club. Ummm... the paint's still wet on the ceiling I think.... There's a girls body upside down in your bathroom... and I'm pretty sure your bathtub is a quarter full with blood." He nipped at Myythrens ear acting like this was perfectly normal conversation, which to him it was. "I'll clean it up later though."
