Re: A First Meeting (Open to all British Adults)

[Aurelia 'Shadow' Vance]

Aurelia hummed a little bit and she thought about who would go best with which other member, it was clear to her that the strongest team by far would be Jack and James, however she needed them split up so that she could use their talents with different group members.

Leaning against the stone Aurelia tilted her head up to look at the stars for one moment, before speaking once more with her mind made up as to what partners they would be having.

"Kiera, you will be partnered with Charina, make sure that you work well together and don't squabble." she said with a smirk on her lips.

Then she turned to Ophelia and hummed lightly, where to put her, where to put her; "You Ophelia will be working with Silas, he isn't here at the moment but I'll be sure to introduce you."

Turning back to Jack she frowned; "You, and your brother will be working with me, where I will keep my eyes on you until such time I can learn to trust you once more. Now does anyone have any problems with their response units?"

[Charina Hayes]

Chari nodded when she was teamed up with Kiera. It was better than being teamed up with Jack or James... not that being paired up with Kiera was a bad thing.

"This is certainly going to be fun." she thought. She waited as the other got paired up. Ophelia & Silas and Jack, James, & Aurelia.

"No, not me. Perfectly fine with my team." Chari said, smirking lightly.

[Kiera de Auvergne]

Kiera inclined her head slightly when Aurelia placed her along with Charina. Charina looked strong, sensible, with an eye for danger. Of course, they would have to train together to know how well they meshed together, but Kiera had a feeling that they would make a good team.

Team.......Kiera hadn't known that word for so long. She lived, and fought, absolutely alone. She had never needed someone else, and she didn't need them now either. But Kiera couldn't argue with the reasoning of placing them in teams, they could back each other up, and Kiera hadn't forgotten the importance of having someone to back you up, even though she hadn't had such a person for years. She didn't know if she would make a good team-mate, having fought alone for so long, but she definitely knew that the last complaint Charina could have regarding her was lack of strength. Or viciousness.

[Aurelia 'Shadow' Vance]

Aurelia smirked gently and she was glad that there was no problems about what she would be having the teams do, or rather, who the teams were, they had not yet gotten to the issue of what they were going to be doing just yet. That was the next thing on the agenda.

"Good good, I suggest after this you all go out and get a beer together, bond or whatever you want, just make sure you get to know how each other work before I send you out together."

Running her hand through her hair she smirked again;

"Now, onto the fun bit, anyone have anywhere they want to attack in particular, the Durmstrang Ship has been done, but anywhere else?" she asked, deciding to include the group in the choices.

[Kiera de Auvergne]

Kiera smirked lightly, she approved of Aurelia's leadership skills, instead of simply appointing tasks for the different members, she was asking their opinion. A sharp woman. Kiera leaned against the nearby mausoleum, rubbing her newly branded forearm, "If I may suggest, why an attack? Why not......," she paused, "An assassination? Send an attack team in to remove one of the key German officials: a Besturmen, a Healer, a Ministry official, anyone. His death will send a clear message to the Germans that we mean business."

"Of course, if you want to stick to the attack plan, then fine. If there is to be an attack, what better place than the German Ministry? A team can create a distraction elsewhere, like in the Golden Strabe, the Besturmen will go there, and the rest are free to attack and pillage the Ministry."

[Ophelia Zabini]

Ophelia nodded her head as she was paired with Silas, whom she'd never met before. Ophelia's teeth clenched as Aurelia mentioned the Durmstrang attack, where she'd been called a traitor by one on her own side. For helping children.

The children hadn't done anything to them. Ophelia kept quiet though and fought hard not to grind her teeth together in frustration, though she crossed her arms.

She nodded her head in agreement with Kiera's suggestion. Though she still wasn't comfortable with attacking people, the war had gone on long enough and it seemed that nothing was really being done to stop it. As long as children were spared, she'd be fine with it. "I think an assassination would be good, instills more fear," Ophelia was surprised that the words left her mouth.

[Aurelia 'Shadow' Vance]

Aurelia smirked a little bit, this is exactly why she wanted the ideas to come from the group and not just directly from her, they would think of things that normally she would have left alone, the idea of an assassination was one that she thought was very good, it allows their Ministry to fall into ruin for a time, and it allows the British one to grow stronger.

"I like this idea, I think that it would be something we could definately do, the only thing is, who shall we attempt to assassinate, there's always the Head Besturmen, but there's something dangerous to her, so perhaps a slightly less problematic target for the first assassination?"

Looking at her team she then hummed to herself; "Theres also the question of who is going to perform the act itself? And who will perform the distraction?"

[Kiera de Auvergne]

Kiera tapped a finger on her chin. "We can always go after the Vice Head Besturmen. Or Head of one of the Ministry Departments. As for who'll actually perform the assassination, I'd like to nominate me and Charina for the task, if she doesn't mind of course." Kiera added with a nod towards Charina.

"Personally my strength is attack, and I actually have some experience in assassination." Kiera smirked lightly. "So I'd prefer it if I and my partner could do the assassination ourselves, though I'm open to do anything if it's needed. As for the distraction, if any of the other teams want to take a hand........."

[Aurelia 'Shadow' Vance]

Aurelia hummed a little and she nodded her head, the only problem was trying to find someone who would be able to be assassinated, and someone who would actually make an impact when they attempted to assassinate them.

"Kiera and Charina," she mused "I agree, your team would be a good choice, Ophelia and Silas will attempt to create a distraction along with myself in busy areas of Germany."

Running her hand through her hair, Aurelia frowned and she had an idea suddenly hit her, it was a far fetched idea but it could be able to be pulled off well.

"Do you suppose that the German Ministry have some sort of Department of Secrets? If they do, we could try and take a worker from there and interrogate them and after we could assassinate them." she mused "We get information and impact on the Ministry."

(OOC: I know there's no actual department, but you could make the guy a NPC so that it goes off without a hitch when you guys do the post )

[Kiera de Auvergne]

"Department of Secrets? Thats the German equivalent of the Department of Mysteries, correct?" Kiera felt a faint remembrance jog her memory. "Yes I assure you, the Department does exist." And Kiera was well in place to give such an assurance considering the fact that she had received orders from this very department regarding weapons several times, before she had joined the rebels of course.

"There is one suitable man......Friedrich Kahn, one of the high ranking officials of the Department. Powerful, influential- but far from invincible. At least, not for Charina and I." Kiera amended with a quirk of her lips. "He often frequents a place in Germany used to give speeches......I've forgotten the name. Anyway, the man would make a good target. We could assassinate him in broad daylight to make a statement, or capture and interrogate him for information, then kill him."

[Aurelia 'Shadow' Vance]

Aurelia was glad that she had someone who was so knowledgeable of the magical world in her team. having been a muggle for most of her life, Aurelia was one to shy away from large magical organisations, if not for the other fact that they tended to ask too many awkward questions.

"Excellent, you sound like you have the idea covered already, now if Charina agrees then your team will be dispatched to Der Akademie to target the man during one of his speeches." Aurelia said, already beginning to like the attitude of the new member of the group.

She took a vial out of her pocket, it was empty, and threw it to Kiera hopefully she would be able to catch it and Aurelia smirked a little bit, placing her hands in her pockets after throwing it.

"Try and capture some of his memories in here before you kill him, if at all possible, I'm sure that you two will think up of some creative ways to do the job."

Turning to the rest of the group she asked; "Now, where do you want to be stationed to attack? I think we should leave the magical hospital well alone, let's not sink to their level, but we need somewhere with plenty of footfall."

[Kiera de Auvergne]

Kiera had to move fast to catch the vial, but years worth of weapons and battle training had done their job well, and Kiera snatched the vial out of the air at the tips of her fingers. She reciprocated Aurelia's approving smirk, "Glad to see that you like the idea. Yes, assassinating the man during his speech would strike terror into the hearts of all those watching, especially since its in broad daylight."

"I'm sure Charina or I could come up with some ways to get the memories out. Disguising as his bodyguards would be the best way though." Kiera then turned towards her new partner, "I hope that's alright?"

[Charina Hayes]

Charina smirked and nodded at the conversation. "Mm... no, I don't think that would be very nice... disguising as his bodyguards may backfire. Firstly, how do we disguise as them? What I mean is, he perfectly knows how his bodyguards look like. He may be able to find out that we're fakes," she said, simply.

"Or... maybe we could just sneak in Der Akademie, probably disguise ourselves as one of the people watching so we could blend in with the crowd," Chari said. "I'm just suggesting, but disguising as the bodyguards would be fine. If he finds out, we could just kidnap him, appear to the people, and disappear. Or we could kill him then and there."

[Kiera de Auvergne]

Kiera lightly chewed on her lip, "Well, Polyjuice is rather faultless, and allows us to take the shape of anyone and everyone, so him recognising us is out of the question. But if you think that being on the crowd is better..... then, what about this. We'll blend in the crowd, and assassinate him in a fear-invoking way, and I'll cast a spell that allows us to remove the memories of a recently dead person. This way we can avoid the entire unnecessary problem of interrogating the man."

"Or....if you actually enjoy frightening someone to the end if their wits..." Kiera had a rather fearsome smile on her face. "We can always go for interrogation."

[Aurelia 'Shadow' Vance]

Aurelia was liking the sound of what these girls were coming up with, it would ensure that she had the memories and it would also send a message to the German Government that they did not appreciate the fact that they kept attacking the British People.

Holding up a hand to pause the two of them for a moment Aurelia looked at the rest of the group;

"You two sound like you're on a roll with the ideas for this assassination, make sure that you send me an owl with the details before the date of the attack. Which is the next thing we must establish, when shall this attack take place? Sooner the batter in my opinion."
