Rockerfella..screeched to a stop on the opposite side of the road from the run down Library..seeign the boarded up windows and run down manner..intrigued Edward even more.
He grabbed his trusty camera, phone and smile! THen waltzed right up to the front door, taking in any movement or other individuals nearby. Once to the front door, he attempts to open the door.
{manipulate simple devices}
Once the door open he slips inside to see what is going on in the Caern!

Kaleb was sitting at the table, finishing the last of the meal when he thought he had heard the front door open to the home. He had assumed that it was either Danny, or perhaps Anna back from the hospital, or even Vasara and the rest of the pack.
Seeing a guy, a guy in a suit none the less, suprised Kaleb. Taking his feet off the table in a swift manner, he stood up and slanted his eyes. He could be a pig, just incase Kaleb would be ready to make a bolt.
"I don't know where you grew up at, but entering a home with out permission is breaking and entering." Kaleb's german was thick and precise as he eyed the man up and down and saw his shiney watch. Hmmm...maybe he had better be nice to this guy, or give the pretense of being nice, so he could get something from him.

Edward took in the surrounds of the front entrance of the Library and saw an interesting individual finishing off a meal.
Edward walks right up this yet unknown individual, hand extended in greating... In his best German (American accented) 'Well yes but one does not expect people to be living in such an abandoned and disheveled place as this!.'
' I apologise for the rude entrance, I will knock next time. I could have sworn the door was left wide open' At this comment there is a wide smirk easily seen on his face.
Thinking to himself 'How is this possible, something is not right. It must be this persons appearance, but i cant quite put a finger on it. Is this a perfect example of a beggar that people seem to speak of! Surely not, for they don't exist!.
After those thoughts he waits patiently for a return hand shake or at least a reply of sorts....

"Well, if it wasn't expected for anyone to be here..what the hell are you doing in here? By the looks of it, I can tell you are not in need of a place like this over your head." Kaleb looked him up and down..No, he did not smell of cop..he smelled of a man who had a silver spoon up, way up his ass.
"This is my place, me and some buddies crash here, I suggest ya leave, 'for something bad happens." Kaleb rolled up his sleeves and stood at a pretty intimidating stance.

As soon as Kaleb finishes his little speech, Edwards outward demeanor shifts suddenly to his lawyer mode. (straight face no emotion and to the point).
In English, 'Well i see the civil approach is not liked here. Well I will get to the point.' {Double talk, Persuasion} In Garou tongue ' I am 'Edward Rockerfella the Third' , the most successful lawyer in Berlin.' Said with a little flair and pomp 'I am here to see the Caern of this place and its inhabitants. I am also after a few individuals who may be of help in restoring the balance of Berlin. Like you say and no place is too out of my interest. Well have i got your interest now?'
Edward steps back away from the yet unannounced individual in the small library, the least threatening as he can be, he awaits the next move.

Kaleb scoffed at the civil part..After all, was it not he that barged into Kaleb's home? Well, technically it was not his home..but he did spend some of the most time here. He didn't see the point of a home, or renting. Tied you down to things, no point in being tied down to things.
His eyes still slanted as Edward began again, he slowly looked him up and down as he spoke in familiar tongue. He smirked at the man's cockyness and the question at hand. Responding in the same tongue, he thought it best to just inform Edward of a few minor details.
"The balance has been restored for a while, buddy. Surprised those hot shots that you know didn't pass that memo on to you. Guess money doesn't buy everything, hey?" Kaleb walked around the man, eyeing him up and down, sniffing him out.
"But, it's a pleasure to have a brother around and of course you are more then welcome to stay here. The caern is open to all who are gaian family. Though, I doubt you would be comfortable here. The pack should be back in a minute, if you want you can hang 'round here." Kaleb stopped circling around the man, and rolled down his sleeves. "Name is Kaleb, are there more with you? Kin, or pack members? Nice watch by the way. What make is it?" He gave Edward his hand.

{scent of running water}
Edward takes Kaleb's perusal in his stride, after all he understood everything he had said. Even if it was a cold reception to start with. (even though Edward is oblivious to the fact).
With a little laugh Edward shakes Kaleb's out stretched offered hand and replies (in German) ' Well it is good to know there are more of our kind in the city, I have been a bit slack of late. Busy with human affairs so to speak. And why would i not like to hang out here, just because i like humankind's high society. I still know how to have a good time. In fact I'm sure i could get you into a few places you would never of dreamed of! And yes I will wait around to meet the rest of the gang, I am very curious indeed! O and its a Timex from Switzerland, i had it custom made with my name engraved on the bottom.'
With that he pulls out a small box full of Cuban cigars..chops then end of with a gold cigar cutter. Lights up and takes a huge intake of Cuban tobacco leaf! With that he offers Kaleb one from the box.

Kaleb was not really listening to Edward, he was really focusing on that watch on his wrist. The fact it was a Timex caught his attention. He really liked that watch, he wanted it. As they shook hands, Kaleb stealthfully wrapped his hands around edward's wrist and tried to take it off.
(Stealth plus Dexterity)[dice=10][dice=10][dice=10][dice=10][dice=10][dice=10]
Looking at the cigar, Kaleb takes it and holds it up, smirking. "Thanks, buddy!"
*rolling to see if he manages to take the watch off the wrist and if he does, he will slide it into his pockets*
"Well, Danny-he's the pack leader he just left. So take a seat and relax." Kaleb took a puff from the cigar and wrinkled his nose..the real prize was the watch. [rand=829784061545032269986850219066994850500977868325141214518353414]

Kaleb lifts the watch easily enough, with years of practice as a pickpocket behind him. Edward doesn't even notice his watch is missing (unless he needs to use it, of course.)

Edward after a good hardy handshake..takes a big puff of his cigar. Slowly drawing it in and savoring the flavour and taste, then blows a few rings on the exhale.
To Kaleb he says in American German ' So got any music in this establishment? I haven't had a good tune all day!' With that he precedes to walk around and investigate the room and preceding rooms, with or without Kaleb's permission.
He also takes a sip from his hip flask..he never leaves the office with out a good nip of the 'Old Pulteney'. He grins as he gets the nice warm sensation on the way down the gullet.
<The lifting of his watch gone unnoticed at this stage>

Kaleb shrugged his shoulders and patted the side of his pants pocket, thrilled he attained a new present. He wondered if he should sell it and make some quick cash for a few good meals in the city the next few nights. While Vasara's cooking was manageable, he could not help but want to grab a few burgers every now and then.
"Music? Yeah, there might be some sort of radio or something that plays it in this place." Kaleb followed Rockerfella carefully making sure he did not touch anything that he should not. "That car of yours doesn't get good radio reception? I'd take it back..I'm sure you could get something better on your money alotment." Kaleb pointed his head to the window and at the car sitting on the street.

Edward was busy riffling through the book case when Kaleb mentions the reception in his car. His ears picked up...
In Americanised German he said 'Would you like to test the sound system for yourself? We can do a a quick drive while wait for the pack to return.' With that he took a few more puffs of the cigar which was half its original size and walked towardxs the door and waited for Kaleb's answer.
He could see a radio or CD player in the joint, o well the car will have to do he thought to himself. 'How long do you think we have before they come back? We could grab a bite to eat while we are out if you like?'
With that said he waited expectantly by the door to the Caern.

Kaleb was about to say no to the idea, but when Rockerfella made mention of food...Well how could he turn that down? Besides the pack would probably still be out a while.
"Yeah, sure. I doubt they'd be back for a while anyways." Kaleb shrugged and headed to the front door where Rockerfella was waiting for him.
"So what kinda system you got in that thing?" Kaleb thought quick of the possibilities of lifting it and how much money he could make off the system. He'd probably be set for years off that profit. Kaleb shook his head...Nah, the watch was enough to take off the potential pack member.

Micah's knowledge of Berlin's bus lines was severely lacking. Instead he took the Umbral route and made a Lupus run for it, reaching the Caern in under 10 minutes. He grinned; that must be a new record. He stepped sideways again and shifted to homid. Then he started looking around for Danny.
"Danny, Kaleb, Anyone!" he called out as he wandered through the library. "Who're you?" he said, stopping short at the door and staring at the new guy. Micah sniffed at him and frowned. He didn't smell like anything, and Micah didn't like not being able to sniff at things.
"Well Kaleb, who's this guy?" he whispered, still sniffing but trying not to be too obvious about it.

Edward was about to open the front door and go to his car with Kaleb in tow. But was surprised by the sudden appearance of another person in the Caern.
Edward didn't like this guys demeanor, but then again he was the stranger int he Caern. Before Kaleb could answer on his behalf, he replied in Garou {Persuasion/double-talk}
'I am new to the Caern. I am merely checking out the source of power for the area. I have been in Berlin for a while. Let me introduce myself;'
In Heavily Americanised German he said ' I am Edward Rockerfella the Third. I have a law firm in up town. You probably noticed my ride out front. Well i have known of the Caern for some time and decided to check it out. Any way I got sick of waiting for the rest of the pack to show up, so Kaleb and myself were going for a bite to eat. Would you like to join us? Sorry I didn't get your name.'
{Manipulate simple device} [Edward starts the car up when Micah has a look outside, then makes it drive to the front of the house and have the door swing open]
With that done he stands and waits....
