"of course it wasn't, but I had to shoot you." Ben began to work on hid computer, his fingers were almost a blur over the keypad. "so, did you hear about the assassination attempt on the Vice-Chancellor?" he asked with out look away from the screen or slowing down his typing.

"yes, he's actually dead. they said it was an attempt so they hoped the assassin would come back. he died a few hours after from blood loss and internal damage." she sighed. "that assassin sure did a number on the man."

"Is that so." Ben was annoyed, so far, Yori has done a horrible job as a client. He wasn't even confident that Yori wasn't the hit man on the job. Ben could hardly cover how upset he was with that boy."Where did you get that information from?"

"You would make an interesting client my dear. My offer is still open." Ben doubted she would take it, but he had to offer.

Ben smiled and closed the current window, it was too ironic to keep it open; only a hand full of people have seen it. then again, Shaon had no interest in the governments knowledge of a future attack. "That's not true, I have protection..." Ben glanced at Shaon, "against Altair."

Ben looked back at the computer. this was a challenge, but Ben knew that he had something to offer everybody, and this little girl was no exception. "Right, the queen, I forgot about her. Shes a toughie." Ben sat silent, thinking. "Eat your food." he told her.

Ben continued to think of something he had to offer. I still have my secret recipe. he thought jokingly. then it hit him, it wasn't something she wanted, but it was something she needed. a smile crept on his face.

Shaon continued to eat quietly, staring at the noddles as she slurped some up, licking her lips and swallowing.

Bens curiosity was growing. "Drus designed Altairs place right?" Ideas were already racing in his mind.

"Of course..." she frowned at him. "why do you ask?"
