She was checking for any signiture of an electrical trail consistant with Cowasian technology. She picked up a faint signal from a small drone. It had flown back to base and she was infuriated. "Can I use your laptop?" She turns to Nell who was sitting on the couch, just waiting for her to calm down. "Why do you need it?" He says from the couch."I need to send an encrypted message to the Counsel." "I'll let you on my laptop," He begins to say, holding out his laptop. She moves to grab it but pulls it back as he says, "If you give me something." "And what am I going to give you?" She says stepping back and crossing her arms. He leans back against the couch and pats his lap, "Come closer." She looks at him skeptically but slowly makes her way to him. She sits on his lap softly like she used to with her d

She was in his closet, packing their bags when a knock is heard on the door. She calls out as she walks out of the closet. "Come in!" A maid opens the door holding a plastic bag of travel essentials. "I have what you asked for." "Oh good. Thank you," She smiles as she makes her way to the maid. The maid reluctantly hands the bag over. Ariella sees this, "Is there something bothering you?" "I just don't understand why Master Carter would decide to go on a trip with some one like you." the maid says angrily. Taking that opportunity to talk harshly to her while Nell wasn’t there and throwing the bag at her feet."And why should that bother you? It's his decision and his life. What makes you think-" "He loves me!" The maid cries out. "He only has interest in you because you're new. When he gets what he wants, he'll leave you on t

The guards tried their best to hold back the assailant but failed as they were being attacked by strange weapons that seemed to be coming from nowhere and everywhere at the same time. A single man calmly walked the corridors as anyone who faced him would collapse, bleeding from nearly every pore and gashing wounds. He would draw strange markings on flat surfaces and bizarre weapons would from the various from unrelated materials. Ambrose was searching every room but could only find maids and nothing else. With every empty room that greeted him, the angier he got. The number of bodies left in his wake was becoming great but he only cared that he found Ariella.

“This is agent Larson reporting in,” a voice says in Cowasian. It comes over a sound system with slight static.“This is Base, receiving.” Another voice responds in the same language.“I just encountered an agent that was lost on the Carter assignment.”“Agent Scarlet? Was she on her own?”At the mention of Scarlet, the person’s attention perched up and listened closer to the conversation. “She was with Nell Carter.”“Did it seem like he had any kind of weapon?” The voice asked concerned.“No. It appeared they were just on a date.” This infuriated the person listening in.“As long as he is unarmed, we shouldn’t have to keep an eye on them. Where did you-“ A knock on the door draws their attention away from the conversation.“Hey you’ve been in there for an hour!” A raspy voice says in English, “other people need to use the restroom!”The equipment that was used collapsed into a simple earbud that he placed in his pocket and stepped out of the bathroom. Ambrose looks down at the man as

Ariella had made her way through the streets when she felt like she had calmed down enough. She had walked along the Tiber river and watched the reflection of the rising sun on the water. She found a bench where she took a seat, closed her eyes, and took in a deep breath. Her mind was starting to clear when, "What's a beautiful woman like you doing out this early in the morning?" She opens her eyes to look at who was speaking. She was met with an average looking, Italian man wearing what looked like expensive brand name clothes and watch. The man looked like he was desprately trying to show he's rich. "Minding my own business." She responds before turning her attention back to the water. The man doesn't take the hint and sits next to her, she had to repress her gag reflex when the god awful stench of his cologne hit her nose, "You seem to be upset by something. I'm all ears." "Good for you," She moves away from him, "I'm still not talking." He chuckles and moves closer to her, "Sti

My name is Bianca and I will be your tour guide for this evening! While we go on this adventure together, I ask that you save your questions until the end of the tour. And please, no flash photography. Is everyone ready? Great! Now if you would follow me" She starts to lead the group before anyone could say anything."Well, isn't she..."

It is the largest ancient amphitheatre ever built, and is still the largest standing amphitheatre in the world, despite its age.
