Orpheus had heard the good news about Emer getting a child. He'd sent a note to her about meeting him here in his classroom so that they could again talf about their plans. That and so that Ligeia could meet her new boy. The owl child needed some friends, ones that he saw more often then just during classes. Ligeia was so shy and seemed to rather hang out with his father then anything else. This would be good for him.
The red haired teacher had some different materials with him that were needed, newspapers that spoke of the up coming event, the blue prints of the museum, and a notepad for them to take notes on.
Ligeia had with him a couple of his dragon books. He had told his father that he would start to teach Miss Emer's child about dragons now. He gave a smile, it seemed that Ligeia was starting to take on his father's enjoyment of teaching. A good thing he thought as it would get him to open up more if he was trying to teach other kids stuff.
"Don't go to far ok Ligeia?" He called over to his son who was trying to find a good spot to spread out the blanket he had brought with him. He didn't want for his books to get dirty while they were here. He found what he thought was the perfect place, where the sun came down through the glass ceiling warming up the area with its light. The checkered blanket was spread out and he sat down on it and laid out his books while he awaited Miss Emer and her child.

Emer stepped into the room, with Kale on her back. It was easier to carry him piggy back and the bag holding her laptop. Kale was still a little aquared on his feet, and they where already late, and he didn't seem to mind the ride. In fact he liked it alot. She was watching him, laughing so it took her to notice that it was not a normale class room.
"Holy Shhhhh...." Emer barely kept the swear word from coming out. She looked up at Kale to see if he had noticed, but Kale was reaching up, trying to get a leaf. She looked over at Orpheus "Hell of a set up you got here."

Orpheus looked over at her, holding back a laugh as he heard her stifle one curse word only to say another a moment later. He looked to the boy that was hanging off her back and gave a smile, "Aww. What a cutie. He looks just like ya." He said teasingly.
He pushed to his feet and walked over to her and the other boy, "Hello there little guy." He said then looked at him then at Ligeia before laughing, "Well not so little is he?" He looked rather tall for his age now didn't he?
Ligeia lifted his gaze from what he was reading to look over at his father, Miss Emer and the kid with them. He pushed up to his feet and walked over towards them curious of the new boy, "Hi." He murmured to the kid and to Miss Emer.
Orpheus looked to Emer, "I got all the stuff together that we need and Ligeia brought some of his books to show to your boy." He told her.

Emer smiled over at Ligeia as she let Kale down, kids weren't so bad.... corse she only met Ligeia once for a few minutes, and she only had kale for a few hours. "Hi." Emer mummred as she made sure Kale was stable before letting him go.
Kale smiled shyly, his long eyelashes fluttering as he looked over at the older owl boy. "Hi." His voice was soft as he spoke, taking a step hestantily forwared, then another, wavering with each step.
"Heh," Emer chuckled. "He is already getting better at that." She looked back up towards Orphes. "Ready to get to work when you are."

Ligeia tilted his head to the side, dark eyes widening a bit as he watched the boy walk. He didn't seem to steady on his feet so the owl boy took a couple steps closer and held his hands out to him. He took Kale's hands carefully so he wouldn't fall, "I'm Ligeia." He introduced himself to the giraffe.
Orpheus nodded, "Ligeia will bring you to show you his books if you like." He told Kale before looking to Emer, "Alright, lets get to work then."
Ligeia watched the two parents go then looked at Kale, "Must b-Eeeee working on class stuffs." He told him having no idea what it was that they could really be working on, "What is your name?" He asked curiously.

Kale took Ligeia's hand as he let the owl lead him towareds the blanket. Wobbly all the way there until he sank down onto the soft fabric. He smiled as he ran his fingers over it. "This is nice, I like it." His dark eyes drifting to his shorts, pointing to them, "Green!!"
Emer sat down, pulling out her laptop and starting it up. Her eyes drifting over the things he had laying out as she waited for the computer to boot up. "So, this is the gig? What's the pay out?" Her short hair shishing around her chin as she tilted her head.

Ligeia's ear tufts wiggled and he grinned, "Yes, gr-Eeeen is a good color. Blue is best." At least in his opinon. He wondered what color it was that the giraffe liked. He picked up his book and bought it over, opening it up so that Kale could see the pictures. His father had encouraged him to make friends and... this boy seemed nice and calm. A good one to try out 'making friends' with.
"The payout is as it was before." He said, "I'm gathering the prizes for a different reason then normal." Well maybe not completely different, he never had kept any of the gems for himself really. He had been in it for the thrill of the hunt so to speak. He gave them to others after he and Emer had them recut so they wouldn't be so easy to detect as being stolen. After all if they no longer had the same cut or setting as they had when stolen how did you prove it was the same gem?
"They are to be gifts fo sorts actually. Though you can keep your cut as normal." He told her.

Kale's ears quivered as he smiled excited as he looked down at the colorful watercolored paintings that where in his book. His eyes getting big as he looked at all the vivided colores. He pointed with a black tipped finger at one of them. "Wow.... what is it?"
Emer looked threw some of the technicale blue prints. Twisting her lower lip ring as she studied them, it was something she always did when she was deep in thought. "There is no way you can do this solo. There is just to much security."

Ligeia looked at the dragon he was pointing at then looked at the caption at the bottom of the picture, "It says its an... Amphi... Amphar... am... Ah... its a feathery dragon!" He said, nodding his head. He had no idea how to pronounce its name but it was a neat looking one.
"Of course not. That is why I had to call for help from the only one I trust enough to get help from. That and the only one I know can do with." He needed Emer, without her he just wasn't the thief that everyone thought him to be. He was just Orpheus the teacher and father without her.

Kale smiled, looking over at Ligeia, "He is pretty one." carefully like he had seen the owl boy do he turned the page, seeing a great red and gold one, sitting with his wings spread wide. "Oooo, he looks mad!"
Emer chuckled and smirked shaking her head. "Yeah, sure. Anyway, are these the most recent blue prints? Are you sure these are the only systems in the place? You know how I hate suprises."

"Red dragons always do seem kinda tempermental don't they?" He asked as he looked over what the page said about them. He gave a laugh, "It says that they are overconfident among other things and like treasure." He blinked a couple times then looked over at Orphues. Red, liked treasure?
"Sounds like Daddy a little." Well aside from the part about it not thinking very far ahead. He was good at that.
Orpheus gave a sneeze then looked over at the two kids wondering if it were them talking about him. Then he looked back, "They redid the system not to long ago because of this exhibit coming to town so I can't see them updating it again." Or at least he hoped not.

Kale started to giggle as Orpheus looked over at them suspciouesly. "Your daddy is funny." Kale giggled softly, turning his gaze back to Ligiea. "Is he always silly like that?"
Erem nodded as she looked over at the prints then at the newspapers, twisiting her lip ring with her tounge again. Slowly she nodded, "I want to get in there, take a look for myself. They might have twicked it." She rose her dark eyes to him, "Think you can pulla dervirson so I can hack in, just like the old days?" Smirking a little as memroies fluttrted to the surface.

He nodded, "Daddy is nice." He said, as he looked down at the book and turned the page, "Is a t-Eeeeacher. Will learn from him." He told Kale, warning him now about the classes then looked around, "This is classroom." It looked like a forest even through it was where they went to learn.
Orpheus nodded as he sat down looking at the laptop she worked on then took a deep breath, focusing himself as he got out a little handheld computer and started to work at it, fiddling around with it to move into another system, power company. Then started to fiddle with the power for the place. It was flickering now, on... off... half on... all on and seeming brighter then normal, up it so a couple light bulbs popped, then off again. Basically so it would seem like a power surge and would get everyones attention.
"There you go."

Kale looked around the enclosed forest area, and slowly got up to his feet. His steps where almost steady now as he moved to a bush with many differnt colored blooms on it. "I like this place."
Erem's fingers moved over the key boared lighting fast. Her eyes locked on the screen and the increpted pages she went threw, struggling to find the back door to the system. Her eyes widening for a moment and her lips parting slightly. Orphies knew that look, it ment she had broken in and was finding what she wanted. "Got it..." She whispered softly.

The blanket and books were abandon so that Ligeia could follow after the giraffe boy. He didn't want for the the little one to get into any trouble after all. The classroom was realatively safe, the only thing one had to look out for was the pool. He decided to stay close to Kale and keep him from going to close to it, "Y-Eeees. Like outside but not." He told Kale, his wings fluttering.
"Awesome." He said, moving to look over Emer's shoulder to see what all they were dealing with and any differences between what the system said and what the papers he'd gotten said. There were differences, of course. He should have known that releasing the details on the system would only encourage people like them to try to get at the gems. So to release false details meant them preparing for something that wasn't there and not being ready for what was, "I see." He murmured, "Interesting. Good job Emer."
