He stopped in mid step and turned to look over at her as she approached. He nodded as she spoke and gave her a grin as he did so. “Would I do anything stupid?” As he gave her an all so innocent look. Then with quick shift of ‘mood’ he gave her a more serious look. “Well I did offer, and I already have a way to get in.” His face suddenly took on a very lost look and his accent became even more hoard then normal “Excuse me miss…but I seem to be lost. Can you help me?” His voice was plaintive as he held out an imaginary map to her to see.
Then, he grinned at her as he leaned back. “Think that will work? Once I am in I can ask to use the restroom and maybe get a chance to poke around some more. I am sure a building that big will be easy to get lost in,” The last he said with absolute mock seriousness as he gave her a very ‘bland’ look.

There was a crash in the back of the room, and soon Zachary crawled out behind a sofa. Bad umbra jumping truly had it's problems. The ahroun groaned a bit and stood up cleaning his tuxedo a bit, before walking next to Simeon and kneeling in front of him. " I am ready to guard you" the ahroun said. "And...uh... I can look convincingly lost"

"Not very likely," Cloud-Dancer said with a smile at Zachary. "But it's probably a good idea to go along anyway. Since Spirals are involved here, we can't rule out the possibility that they've got some eyes and ears out in the place."
She turned back to Simeon. "As long as you do the talking," she said. "I already looked into the company. It's a weapons' research company, all legal, nothing dodgy on the surface. They're not a big company themselves, but they've got some ties to H&K, worked with them a few times. You're going to have to dig deeper to find out what they're hiding, what the Spirals' interest there is. Don't do anything dangerous..."
The phone rang suddenly. "Let me know what you find," she added quickly. "Once this mess is cleaned up, I'll be able to help you."

Simeon nodded to Cloud and then looked at Zachery. "Well first off, you want to come you *will* be wearing something different then that' And he pointed to The clothing Zachary was wearing though it was very obvious he was looking directly at the collar. "We are going to be lost tourist, and respectable ones at that." Having run with the Rom for some time Simeon knew the need to blend in and Zachary did not blend in dressed like that. This was also his way of seeing if Zachary was going to be able to follow orders, some Ahroun always had problems with that concept.
Looking back over at Cloud "Well first thing is to get my foot inside...from there...I will improvise." he also had the rest of the night to think things through as well..though he wasn't about to admit that. Plus, it was always bad to over plan, because things never went as planned anyway, flexible was good.

Zachary gave out a low growl as Simeon looked at his collar. " I will change my clothes, but this collar is the punishment of the sins my father commited, I wear it to remind myself of his fate. I will cover with, however" he said and looked at the ground.

"You do what you need to do," Cloud-Dancer said. "It's always good to have a couple of friends watching your back, no matter what approach you decide to take. I have to take this." She indicated the ringing phone. "Find me if you need anything."
She stepped back towards the kitchen to answer the ringing phone.

Hands of Mercy appears in the room from the Umbra, and looks around, giving Simeon a nod. "Does anyone know where Walks With Death-rhya went?"

Zachary’s growl was not missed, but it was also not acknowledged short of a slight narrowing of Simeon’s eyes. “If it is not hidden to my standards you will remain outside. I am not putting my ass on the line to have everything blown out of the water by some stiff-necked pride.” Some days, the garou could make that Catholic religion group look very conservative in their approach to ‘sin this and sin that.’.
He barely turned his head to Cloud-Dancer as she spoke and gave her a slight nod, as Zachary had his full attention at the moment. “There may be times when the youngster would have to swallow that pride to do the things a pack like Simeon was thinking of, and he needed to know if the boy would follow orders or get all stubborn about it. “Part of being in a mobile pack and spying is learning to blend in, and that means sacrifices made. Is your desire for some sort of self chastisement more important than the safety of the pack?”
As hands entered he gave a slight nod, and then a shake of his head. He hadn’t seen Walks With Death-rhya.

" I will wrap it around my dick to do my job, but removing it completely from my body is like taking the deformity off a metis, it just won't do" Zachary said, trying his best to keep his voice stable. He could go to hell and back, if ordered, but the collar would stay. " If my collar causes problems, then it is my problem to solve, not yours. It was not self given punishment, this collar was given to me by the elders of my sept as a reminder"

Once again, Zachary manages to choose the wrong moment, or perhaps the wrong words to say in front of Hands of Mercy. He does not, after all, consider his deformity to be a punishment duely earned as a mark of his parents' sin, but a burden placed around his neck by their screw-up. Their crimes should be theirs to bear, not his. Of course, the scars are a different matter altogether, but they aren't a mark he was born with. He bares his teeth briefly, then turns and heads off too seek out Danny. If the Athro wants to speak with him, the response to a Cliath's ignorance could wait.

Hands of Mercy found Danny in the reading area, where he was talking to a very large man who appeared to be fixing a chair. A teenage boy was standing near them, listening to the conversation.
"We'll tell them he found his way home," Danny was saying. "There will be no need for either of you to talk to them again. We will sort it out. Again, I'm really sorry, we shouldn't have dragged you into this. It could have gone much worse." He turned to the boy. "And we'll get you home," he said.

“You are wrong there. If a problem occurs because of it while working with others or a pack, then it becomes the packs problem and those you are with.” He really wanted to add in more about his previous sept elders and their idiocy, but held his tongue if barely. It only confirmed what bastards the Shadow Lords were, though it also made him wonder more about Kamut and his upbringing. He seemed quite different from his tribemate in front of him. “Just have it well hidden, come the time we leave on the morrow.”
He was serious he would leave the other behind if he felt there was a chance of endangering the mission. Wolves worked as a pack, each member working to enable the whole and pull their weight. It was a pity the human factor sometimes had to muddle that simplicity.
“I will want to head out about ten or so….I also will see if Hands wishes to come as well.” He was also thinking of Katrine…but he hadn’t seen her yet.
With little more to say, he gave Zachary a curt nod and turned to follow hands of mercy to see what plans he had on the new day.

Zachary nodded and gave out a small "excuse me" to Simon. He didn't want to to come off as a hard case, but he just could not fanthom to disrespect a order he was given. The poor boy's mind was wired very simple and Hands growl made Zachary feel even worse.
The Shadow Lord walked out of the library to his home.

Hands of Mercy gives the cub a nod of greeting and looks the large man up and down then addresses Danny. "You wished to speak with me W... Danny?"

Simeon followed behind Hands of Mercy and paused a few feet behind him and the others. It seemed hands needed to talk to Danny, and it wasn't his business, yet. So instead he turned on heel and headed up to the room he was using. That was another thing...he really needed to find a place to move into and stop living off the Sept. This thought struck him as his had was about to turn the knob to the door, and he gave a wry grin. maybe he was going to be about for a long time...he hadn't thought about a permanent home in many years.
One in the room, he stretched out on the bed and let his mind wander. He thought about his finaces...a pack...Spirits...and oddly his family. It was these things that finally lulled him to sleep.
