*Midnight follows the others as they get drinks. RMR offers her a varity of drinks.*
Just a juice please.
*She sits at a table and sighs mentally feeling tired and weary but knows the meeting is important.She then does a head count and reaoises that theres one missing.*
Has anyone seen Zeph at all?? Since earlier...

*Midnight is interrupted by a rather abashed looking Zeriphel tumbling into the room*
Sorry about that! Had to fully materialise...
Anyway, have I missed....
*sees the drinks*
Oooo, I say top hole! Don't suppose you could rustle up a martini wot? Bit early in the evenin' for wine....
*Diana, who has also re-appeared, covers her eyes with her antennae in despair*
Diana: Zeph, getting drunk REALLY isn't a good idea... last time the house was nearly flattened by pink elephants..
Zeph: Oh don't be a spoilsport, I'll just have the one... or two...

*Midnight smiles at Zeph and thinks that at least it will be a interesting meeting after Coriolis's actions earlier.*
Glad to see you with us Zeph and you Diana. I don't think you could flatten this place....or I hope not anyway.
*She smiles and slowly begins to relax.*

*Phinehas is still talking to Tom as the rest get settled in.*
Well, hiding was probably the wrong term. My point is, I rarely expose myself to danger, so I rarely have need of running, falling, or whatever else. As for teleporting, it's a nice trick, but a little too risky for me, even if I did have the ability....

"Ahem"
*RMR clears his throat and offers them all a seat, he begins to speak again in calmed tones, so as not to wind anyone up.*
"I think that from our arrival here, and indeed before then, it is clear that sticking together in a large group all the time is a bad idea. Some of us cannot get on, and I'm not going to pass any judgement nor take any sides but this remains a problem. We appear to have several direct enemies and 'problems', this Hakonatu, The Alzan Assassin, The Shadow and Sir.Locksley and his Inqusition.
Now I know some of us have personal reasons to find specific enemies and so I think we will concentrate best on those enemies, therefore if I combat the shadow, Midnight, Coriolis and Tom concentrate on the Assassin & This Hakonatu, Zephriel concentrates on Locksley then that leaves us with Phinehas and Zeytan. What do you wish to do?"

*Phinehas, who has remained standing, glances over at Zeytan.*
Personally, I don't really care. I'm not here because of any personal vendetta. I'm here because I feel like helping out. Who in particular, I don't really care. Well, that's not true. I cannot, or more accurately, will not, work with those governed by emotions, so I'd prefer not to have doings with Midnight, Coriolis, or Tom, as they seem to all be emotionally intertwined somehow.

"Very well, you could come with me as someone who can move as fast & quietly as I can would be an asset for sure, unless Zeph really feels he needs your help with the inquisiton."

*Midnight looks a bit surprised at RMR's suggestion.*
Hmm maybe I missed a point or something I'm not quite with it but are you suggesting myself, Coriolis and Tom work together?? As in a group??
*She ends up drawing a circle in the air with her hands.*
I mean at the moment Coriolis can't stand to be in the same room as Tom let alone work with him. I'm going to be spending more time stopping them from killing each other more than anything else!!
*To Phinehas* I can understand your reasons for not joining me and Coriolis....and possibly Tom but if you knew the whole story maybe you would understand some more.

"A fair point indeed, Tom, do you feel able to face the Alzan Assassin alone? If you did need help then i'm sure Zeph could make a diversion to aid you. Phinehas, are you decided who you wish to go with?"

*Phinehas looks over at Midnight, his face hidden in the shadows of his hood.**
I doubt it. Pain, prejudice, pride, hatred... I've seen it before. Take some advice, learn to deal with it, and you'll live a lot longer.
*Phinehas then looks back at RMR.*
It really makes no difference to me, whatsoever. Well, that's not true, but it doesn't make enough difference to matter. You both seem to be quite good at what you do, and although Zeph may be quite different from me, I have nothing against working with him. I may, however, be more useful to you.

"So it's decided; Midnight & Coriolis shall 'dig up dirt' on this Hakonatu, Tom shall combat the Alzan Assassin, Phinehas and I shall take on the shadow & Zephriel shall dog the inquisition when needed, due to his connection to Locksley. In times of need we shall all meet here, there's only one key at the moment but that can be rectified."
*RMR walks to the desk and rifle through its drawers, he takes out a red cloth bag and then places his office key into it, he pulls the drawstring to shut the bag and says '6 copies'. He opens it back up and takes out 7 keys (including his original which is a different colour, the copies are all a lighter shade), he hands them round to everyone in the room.*
"Now, my key is the master and so if your key is stolen or lost inform me immediately and I can erase the copy. The extra key is for Zeytan should he wish to join in the mission, I'm not entirely sure whether or not you're coming with us Zeytan as I wasn't around if you mentioned it. Now we can all get in here, I say we should meet back to check progress once a week, but it would help if we could all communicate. Does anyone have a communications device which I could copy using the magic bag?"

*Zeph was during this time walking round the room, fiddling with with his fingers and probably having a few too many drinks. With Diana seemingly trying to hide herself in his coat. After about four or five drinks Zeph began to get a little merry and began humming a little tune to himself though sudible to Midnight and probably the rest of the room. That wasn't too bad it was when musical notes began to appear out of no where in bright pink and blue colours and seemingly bounce around the room. Midnight mutters to herself...*
Oh no....
*As Zeph continues his tune and getting a little bit louder the notes grow bigger and bounce even more. Several are now on the table and some were dancing in pairs!! Trying to stop herself from laughing Midnight focuses on RMR apart from her new skill of being able to talk to Coriolis and Tom she had nothing that would allow them to keep in contact with the others.*
No I haven't.

*Zeph admires his musical notes, and then his sozzled brain picks up on what Rob said, instantly he is sober...*
Actually Rob.... I don't think that it's such a wise move me keepin' tabs on the Inquisition, certainly not alone...
Y'see, Eddie... sorry, Sir Edmund.... can tell when I'm nearby and it sends him into a rage... believe me, he's far better when he's doin' the unemotional game....
Really I don't think that the Inquisition is much of a threat providin' Eddie's doin' his normal job, but if he feels there's a challenge...
As t'helpin', I'll help anyone with the more pressin' dangers, but I can't promise t'be that stealthy so no offence Phinehas, but I may not be very helpful around you, blow your cover as 'twere!
Tell you wot! I notice that every group has a spellcaster except the Watchers... now I know you've got powers of your own but I can be a hand in a tight spot!
Still, perhaps Diana can go with one of the other groups, I can speak and cast spells through her long-distance doncha'know, and she's got a fine brain on her....
*Suddenly notices the musical notes haven't faded... picks up one and speaks into it, all of the notes repeat it in a soft, sing-song voice...*
I say, this might be useful for the ol'communications wot!

"Well, if Diana goes with Tom, just so each group has 2 or more, then that's a good idea. Also I suppose Phinehas and I will have to dig around the Inquisiton anyway, keep them distracted with the Shadow. As for the notes, providing they won't fade away and can keep quiet when asked then I think that's a splendid idea."

*Tom has been silent lissening to these plans now decides to add his 2 grots worth to the disscusion.*
"If I may point out 2 flaws with that idea."
"One The Assasin has Midnight & Corlius in its sights. We can only assume Hakonatu has ordered it to kill them. Now I can say with out fear of contridiction that while I would make a very enjoyable target for The Assasin, for personal ressons. It will follow its orders first and formost."
"There for rendering me or Miss Diana going out alone after the abomination effectivaly usless."
*See's Midnight is about to protest.*
[In a gentel tone.]
"And also Miss Midnight how am I supposed to be able to help your Freid to see that people should be judge fro who they are not for who there race is, if I am denied this oppotunity?"
