Malcolm MacBain *After receiving his assignment from Gideon he heads down to the locker room to meet up with his team. The sound of slamming metal doors and conversation filling the room. Stepping up on the bench he looks down.* Good Evening laddies. I um.. have our assignment here from Gid And from the looks of it we are going to the mall to do a little shopping. So with that in mind. No blades or ammo belts. Only a small fire arm will be needed.
Kellan Archer *checking my weapons making sure I have everything I will need
for tonight I take a seat on the bench laughing as Dare gives me a look of utter confusion* Damn man what’s wrong; did you forget something? *he shakes his head then smiles as he
pulls out his new blade, whistling as I get up to take a closer
look at the knife I hear Malcolm voice in back of us. Turning to face him I focus on his words not at all comfortable with the plans*
Dare Thorne *Hearing Uncle Mal tell us what our orders are for tonight, I
look at Kellan and groan.* Dammit, and I wanted a chance to use this new blade.
*Getting up and looking over Malcolm's shoulder, I whistle low.* Damn - not
just the mall, we're going to the Dome. I think Gideon misspelled the orders.
I'm sure we'll be snooping, not shopping! *punching Kellan's shoulder* Hey -
Mathias lives at the Dome. Maybe we should check in with him first, and see if
he's learned anything new since Brock and Rio scoped it out awhile back?
Malcolm MacBain *Chuckling, he could see the relief on Kellan's face, the same feeling he felt. The Dome would be a far safer environment to be on patrol, especially when you had the only son of Lucan and Gabriella Thorne. Lord know he would not want something to happen to the boy on his watch.* This won't be a social call, Dare. But we will be investigating the arena that Rio and Brock found. Seems Dia filling his stables with fighters and word is out it will be opening soon. *Tossing the keys to Kellan* Let's head 'em up and move out, cause I have other plans for tonight and it doesn't include spending all night with you.
Kellan Archer The Dome huh? *thinking back to the first time he had dealings with Dia Rivera* I don't know about you but I will be taking more than one gun with me. *grabbing my twin gun holster and one ankle holster I gear up. Feeling Mal's eyes on me I turn* What? I know Dia and you can't underestimate him...
Dare Thorne *Following Kellan's lead, I weapon up, stashing an extra ammo
clip in the inside pocket of my leather jacket.* Just in case. I've heard Dad
talk about Dia. You're very right. He is not to be underestimated, or we're
fighting a losing battle. *Walking out to the garage, we get to the SUV.* I
call shotgun!
Kellan Archer *catching the keys I laugh at the Dare,
smacking him on the back of the head* Get your ass in the back kid! *getting
behind the wheel I start up the engine backing out of the garage; taking a
right at the end of the drive and heading for the Dome*
Malcolm MacBain *SMH at Dare's enthusiasm* Sorry lad, age before beauty. You get
the back seat to yourself. *Buckling in he looks over at Kellan.* Get us there
in one piece.
Dare Thorne *laughing* You can't blame a guy for trying! *as we pull up to
the Dome and park the car, I take a look around. I can sense a lot of Breed in
the vicinity - likely Dia's security staff. Leading the way to the elevators to
the private residential areas, I hold the elevator till the rest of my group
gets in, then punch the button. Exiting the elevator, looking around.* Wow -
pretty fancy, isn't it? I believe Mat lives right down this hall. I'm glad
Nathan didn't come with us - I think Jordana lives at the other end. We
wouldn't get anything accomplished. *Ringing the doorbell, and waiting for Mat
to answer.*
Mathias Rowan *Opening the door to the three warriors, he invited them inside to see what they needed.* Evening, fellas. Anything I can help you with? *They nodded and Malcolm filled him on details of their mission.* Honestly, I have been looking but haven't found a lot of anything. Not everything is open yet but there has been more activity than usual in the area leading me to believe another part is opening soon. The cameras are everywhere and I am pretty sure one is on me from the time I enter the property until I leave. I've been keeping my eye on that newer store, Teardrops, too and trying to get to know the owner. I have seen her in the presence of Dia before. Which puts my instincts on edge.
Malcolm MacBain *Walking over to the window and looking out onto the moon lit garden below he turns back towards his brothers.* I looked over the report that Rio and Brock submitted back a few months ago and it seems there is more to this place than shops and apartments. Looks like Dia has built an arena in the basement. Word is out on the street that fighters are moving in.
Kellan Archer *looking from Mathias to Malcolm I listen to the conversation before I chime in* I didn't need to
see the report to know that Dia was up is to something. You both know he is a
sneaky so of a bitch; we have just never been able to pin anything on him that
would stick. *shaking my head* We need to go down there and check it out again!
Dare Thorne *Nodding in agreement, I address my brothers* From viewing the
report, and speaking with my father, I am sure Kellan is right. What Brock and Rio found has all the hallmarks of a big cage fighting operation being set up. We need to see just how far along the set up is. Mathias - is there a back stairwell we could take? One that maybe is used for service, that might not have security cameras? That way, you could come with us and we may be able to get down there undetected, although I'm sure we won't have long before Dia gets wind of our presence. That dude sees all,
knows all.
Mathias Rowan *Nods* I can give you a "tour" of the place and point
out the areas for you. Give an explanation on why you are here. Besides *looks
at Dare* the club is pretty sweet for getting takeout. *Arming himself from his own stock he lead the way down the stairwell, taking them out to the main floor, doing the requisite motions of showing them where things were located. He slowed down as they got to the area where he thought the Arena would be.* This is it, boys. What next?
Malcolm MacBain *Entering the posh arena we have a bird's eye view of the cage.
Two fighters are sparing below observed by several Breed. Suddenly a dark
haired male looks up. He's talking on the phone and turns looking up at us. The
look on his face none too happy. * Watch yourselves boys. I think they know we
are here.
Dia Rivera *Watching the new fighters with interest I receive a call from
security. He informs me we have company. Looking behind me I see several males
in the top row. Growling with anger I signal the Breeds beside me to follow me
and instruct Security to cover the exits. Climbing the stairs two at a time I
engage the unwanted company.* I believe you males are lost. Can I point you to
the nearest exit?
Kellan Archer *watching from the corner of my eye I see several of Dia's
Security moving in to stand at the exits. I step to the side closest to Dare and speak in a low voice only he can hear* You keep your ass close to me, I don't need any shit from your father if something happens to you. *he opens his mouth to say something but I talk over him* We thought we would come down and check out the entertainment. I mean We have money just like everyone else!
Dare Thorne *glaring at Kellan, wanting to tell him that I am a grown warrior, and no longer Daddy's little boy to be protected, but knowing the time isn't right. We'll have this fucking convo later. Turning to Dia* Yes, it looks like a very nice set up you have here, and we were just wanting some entertainment, which by the looks of things, promises to be quite good.
Mathias Rowan *Watching the exchange, he idly wondered where the partners
were.* My friends wanted a tour of my new home, Mr. Rivera. Is that a problem? We noticed activity in here and decided to check out things and it looks like you have your fingers in more than one pot. *Smirking as he saw the Breed motioning for security.* When are you going to officially be open for business here? I might want to book a private party for my friends.
Malcolm MacBain *Folding his arms across his chest he looks over Dia's
shoulders at the fighting males. Cocking his head to the side he did a double
take. Nudging Kellan he whispers* Does Kade have a brother?
Dia Rivera *Pinching the bridge of my nose. I recognized Kellan. this is The Order Damn I have no time for this*
Glaring at him as I talk to the group.* Your money is not welcomed here. My
establishment is for an exclusive group of customer. So unless you are here to
audition for a place in my ring, I suggest you turn you asses around and get
the hell out of here.
Kellan Archer *scanning the room keeping my eyes on the breed and human
security I grin as Dia tells us we have to leave* Damn Man our moneys no good? You keep this up and we will think your hiding something! *Hearing Malcolm's I lean in and whisper back* Yeah, he does! As a matter
of fact he has two... Why? *I follow his gaze and set eyes on a young breed
male the spitting image of Kade* Well fuck me! *making a mental note to ask if any of his
family was in town*
Dare Thorne *Surreptitiously taking photos of the arena and fighters with my
cell phone, I capture a close up of the breed male that looks like Kade,
while recording Dia's remarks.* Hmm... Mr. Rivera, wonder what it takes to be
in that exclusive group of customers? Don't worry, we're aren't here for an
audition. Your place looks quite nice. I'm sure you'll do well. *shooting a
grin at Kellan.*
Mathias Rowan *Shaking his head, he noticed the covert maneuvers of each of
them. Recording information that would be discussed and dissected by the Order.
Damn, these guys were decades younger than his recruits and eons ahead in
skills. He looked up at Dia and arced a brow* I will look forward to the
grand opening. We can head out and catch our fun somewhere else for now. See
you around, Breed.
Malcolm MacBain *Signaling for the team to head out, he steps forward and stands
toe to toe with Dia. speaking in a sarcastic tone.* Mr. Rivera it was nice
meeting you, We will take our leave now.
Dia Rivera *Pulling a business card from my pocket I brush by the Scotsman
and block the youngest male* I know you. You're Lucan Thorne's
son, Dare Thorne. Give him this, he'll need it one day. Tell him
it's his get out of jail free pass.
Dare Thorne *Taking the card without a word, just a nod, I turn to follow my
brothers out of the arena.* Like Dad's gonna need this! Maybe he can use it for
a bookmark. *nudging Kellan as we exit.* Speaking of Dad, Kellan - you and I need to have a
fucking chat later.
