Dinner with the Red Baron. ( Private. )

It was a cold night in London, the Red Baron dinery was chalk full of rich tourists and wealthy members of society. As waiters bustled around the place Adelfo Melino took his seat at his table. Expecting a diplomat represititive of Vinnie to come and speak with him about his plan to achieve the seat of the head don, and insurmountable if not accomplishable objective. He sipped his soup and awaited the witches arrival.

Fasha entered the dinery dressed in her fanciest outfit. A red strapless dress that went down to her shin that had a slight split up the sides, each stopping at her knee. She wore a pair of red light gloves that went up to her elbows with a yellow pattern on the back of each hand as well as a red choker around her neck with a similar pattern going around it. She straightened her red hair, tied up on the back of her head, before finally taking her seat.

The Witch crossed her legs under the table, planning how she would approach this situation. This guy would probably be used to seeing fancy women all the time, it's also fair to assume he's heard his fair share of people sucking up to him. She would have to be something a bit... more... than what he was used to if she wanted to leave an impression.

" Welcome miss, to my pride and joy the red baron. My name is Adelfo, could I get yours? " She was right about one thing, he had seen his fair share of fancy wemen.

"Elizabeth Montigue." Fasha lied, flawlessly. "I believe Vinnie let you know I was coming, lord Adelfo? I would hope your security's good enough that not just any woman can find their way to your table by mentioning your name, right?" A slight smile crossed her face as she spoke. Testing the waters, in a sense. If she wanted to accomplish her goals, she needed to prove Vinnie's compitence. Which meant that she first needed to prove he already had compitent people working with him, such as herself.

" What is the password that you said to allow the waiter to take you up here. If you do not know than I am afraid you must be shot. " Damn, he doesent play around.

"It was 'I will take the Adelfo Melino', of course, lord Adelfo. But lets not dodge the obvious here unless your security really is that bad." Her words started to move in, unshaken by the threat of death. Of course he wasn't going to do anything in a crowded place like this to Vinnie's associate. "The simple truth is that you have some idea why I'm here, right? You've already discussed this to some extent otherwise you wouldn't have the password in the first place. So would you say we're... on the same page to some extent?"

" We are on the same page yes. Oh and you don't have to call me lord. Sir would do. "

"Thanks, that really saves us some time." The Witch leaned back in her seat slightly with a smirk on her face. This wouldn't be nearly as hard as she thought it would be then. "Well, you should understand that I'm personally willing to do anything in order to make this deal work. Just name it, no strings attatched. Your wish is my command, Sir Adelfo~"

" Alllll riiiight. " Adelfo said.
" What I need to know is why should I help you with this coup? How will me and my men be better off for doing so? "

"Oh, it should be obvious." Fasha mentioned, flicking a few stray strands of hair off of her face. "Two Witches and a master assassin have already joined him, one of which has the equivilant of a small army. On top of that, right as we're talking, he's gaining a larger force through one of those Witches." The task for Chloe was simple enough, there's no way she'd fail her assignment.

"And... then there's another thing. Lets just call it a secret project. Something only a few of us truely know about, right?" A sly grin crossed her face. "If you just agree to meet us halfway then I can sincerely promise you that you'll never have to worry about your little opperations ever again.... Have I at least peaked your intrest, yet?"

" Well you have stirred it. But if a three man operation is not fully informed of the plan it can only lead to trouble. Tell me in detail of this secret project before I make any decisions. " Their soup arrived, egg drop on both sides. He took a sip of his, disregarding it was piping hot.

A smile crossed her face. "I actually managed to find the location of a special device of reasonable power. Lets just call it a Magic Tool even though it's technically not one of THE Magic Tools. Between you and the contact my associate Witch is gaining, we'll have more than enough men to launch an expodition to retrieve it. It's for Vinnie's own good, but he doesn't quite know yet.... You know how he is, he'd rush into things without thinking and right now he's trying to keep a low profile until everything's in place."

" Tell me about the devise. " The man said. Clearly he was skeptical as hell as to anything she would do without Vinnie.

"It's pretty much a sphere that's kind-of unevenly shaped, like a stone but made of bronze and a solid fracture going completely around it's surface. Once it's activated a signil will appear on it's side." She leaned back forward, trying to read what he was thinking. "According to what I've gathered, it has the power to grant or negate specific types of magic. Use it on someone with the right soul and they instantly become much more useful. Or, if used to negate magic, then it would be able to hide someone from even the most desperate Witch."

She didn't want to tip Adelfo off about how Ebony was trying to track Vinnie, but she also wanted it to be clear incase he did know that this object was worth their time and efforts. "You can see how that would be useful, right? Keep in mind that this is an optional deal. We'll have plenty of people without your help... so joining us is almost entirely for your bennifit."

A subtle smile formed as she continued. "But, you know, my previous personal offer still stands if you're up for it, sir Adelfo~" Fasha winked at him, making it clear that she meant what she said.

" Well I'm in, as long as acquiring he devise is not that risky. As for your offer, by all means stay for dinner. "
A waiter came to get their orders.

"Trust me, sir Adelfo, I've got everything planned 10 steps ahead of time for whatever situation comes up." Fasha turned to the waitor, ordered her food, and then raised her glass as if she was making a tost. "To a successful partnership."

It was slightly insulting that he used his favor on her staying for dinner, but then again it was doubtful that Vinnie fully expleined who she was or what she was capable of. After all, he never bothered to try and catch her false name.

(OoC: So the thread's done?)

Adelfo clinked the glass and drank.
ooc: Yes.
