"........" Jaden was silent as he heard what she said.
"Yeah..." he muttered.
"Right. Anyway..." he mumbled further.
"Yeah. She did bring me here." he told her. "Said there was someone here I needed to meet." he went on.
"Suppose that'd be you." he added with a small smile.

Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
She just laughed lightly before bowing grciously.
"Your mother, Sydney Sherwood, at your service." She then said, completely forgetting that he would have known her name as Csilla instead. She hadn't started taking the handle of Sydney until after he was gone.... because she'd really gotten sick of people mispronouncing her name.

- - - -All right, she is finished. You may speak again.
Jaden paused.
"Wait... what?" he asked.
"Sydney?" he asked her.
He then paused for a moment, and thought about it.
"Well... that might explain why we've never actually met again until now." he said.
"I always remembered you as Csilla." he told her.
"Wait... what?" he asked.
"Sydney?" he asked her.
He then paused for a moment, and thought about it.

Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
Sydney hesitated a moment before laughing.
"Oh! I changed my name. Well, not legally, but everyone knows me as Sydney because honestly? I got sick of people not being able to say my name" She told him honestly.
"I assure you, I am still the woman you believe me to be." She then said before pausing.
". . . .where have you been? I ... I've been looking, but no matter what I did, where I went... I couldn't find you."

"I was living with Demitra and her mother, Racquel." Jaden replied.
"I mean... I didn't think you were alive." he said.
"And... well... you have been going by a different name..." he went on.
"Anyway, Demitra saved my life when I was on the run, brought me to her home, where she and her mother took care of me, and showed me how to survive." he told her.
"And helped me train up my skills with the blade." he then added

Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
Sydney was silent for a moment before smiling.
"I will have to thank them later." She said.
"If only just because of the fact that it's thanks to them that I even got a chance to see you again as it is." She added.
"What are you doing now? I mean with your life. Do you have a love, for instance??"
"I will have to thank them later." She said.
"If only just because of the fact that it's thanks to them that I even got a chance to see you again as it is." She added.
"What are you doing now? I mean with your life. Do you have a love, for instance??"
- - - -All right, she is finished. You may speak again.
Jaden's face turned red.
"N-no." he replied.
"No. I don't." he said.
"And I'm not doing anything with my life." he then admitted.
"Actually, I want to go to the Triad." he told her.
"See if they have an assassin position up for grabs."
"N-no." he replied.
"No. I don't." he said.
"And I'm not doing anything with my life." he then admitted.

"See if they have an assassin position up for grabs."
Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
Sydney paused a moment and just met his gaze, a look of surprise on her face.
'I... really?" She asked, her voice as surprised as her fdeatures were.
"I mean... it's understandable, I suppose. If you've been training with Demi, then I know you're quite able to keep on your toes." She then added.
"Ah, here." She said before a rift opened ahead of him, and a card came out.
"Here, this has the location of the Triad, as I'm sure you don't know where it is. I've been a few times." She explained.
"Chances are someone you can speak with about that will be there in a couple of hours."
'I... really?" She asked, her voice as surprised as her fdeatures were.

- - - -All right, she is finished. You may speak again.
Jaden accepted the card, and looked at it.
"Oh, all right." he replied.
"Thank you." he said.
"I guess I should go check up on th-" he started to say, before his stomach growled.
"Oh..." he muttered.
"Right." he said.
"I'm hungry." he remembered, a sheepish tone to his voice.
"Oh, all right." he replied.
"Thank you." he said.
"I guess I should go check up on th-" he started to say, before his stomach growled.

Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
Sydney just laughed.
"Come with. AJ is a wonder if the kitchen." She told him before leading him out of the room and down a hall.
---
Sydney just smirked as she walked into the office that she normally tried to avoid being. She had already alerted the other two, that there would be someone stopping by to speak with them all. Of course, she had no idea what it was that would come at the end.
For now, she was waiting in her office, wondering how long until Jaden arrived.

After a few minutes of waiting, she heard knocking at the door.
"Hello?" she heard her son call in.
"I was told to come here about the position of assassin?" he asked.
When the door was opened, he froze once more.
"Wait, what?" he asked.
"Mom!?" he exclaimed.
"Wait... wait, YOU'RE the one in charge here?" he asked her further.

Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
Sydney just laughed as she answered.
"Yes. I am the original menmber of this incarnation of the Triad."
"But I am one of the three." She paused a moment.
"Yes, you get a clear from me, I know where you've been living, and who you have been training with, but you will have to meet with the other two."
"Yes. I am the original menmber of this incarnation of the Triad."

- - - -All right, she is finished. You may speak again.
"I see." Jaden replied.
"Well... that does make sense." he said.
"Who are these other two?" he asked.
"Can you tell me anything about them?" he asked further.
"Or is not knowing until I see them part of the interview process...?"
"Well... that does make sense." he said.
"Who are these other two?" he asked.
"Can you tell me anything about them?" he asked further.
"Or is not knowing until I see them part of the interview process...?"
Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
"Pierre is a Lycan, and Lee is a Dryad." Sydney answered.
"So... be wry of that." She added.
"Lee is female, by the way." She then added before pausing a moment and shrugging.
"Come on. We can head down to the room for this. If you're ready now."
"So... be wry of that." She added.
"Lee is female, by the way." She then added before pausing a moment and shrugging.
"Come on. We can head down to the room for this. If you're ready now."
- - - -All right, she is finished. You may speak again.
Jaden nodded.
"I am." he replied.
"As ready as I'll ever be." he told her.
He then took a deep breath, exhaled, and repeated.
"Yeah." he said.
"Let's go." he told her.
"I am." he replied.
"As ready as I'll ever be." he told her.
He then took a deep breath, exhaled, and repeated.
"Yeah." he said.
"Let's go." he told her.
Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
Sydney nodded before leading him toward another room. It was silent as they walked, solely because of the fact that she was't sure what to say for the moment.
After they reached the room, they sat down and waited. After about five minutes, someone else walked in. She had long green and brown hair, fair skin, and what looked to be vines spread across her skin in quite a few places. Her eyes seemed to be a peircing emerald as well.
"Ah, you two are already here. Wonderful." She said as she sat herself across from Jaden

- - - -All right, she is finished. You may speak again.
After about a minute, and before Jaden could say anything, a muscular man with stubble on his face and ruffled short brown hair stepped into the room.
"All right!" he said.
"You the one askin' about the assassin job?" he asked Jaden.
"I am." Jaden replied.
"Then let's get this started." the man then said, before going and sitting down beside Sydney and the other female.
"All right!" he said.
"You the one askin' about the assassin job?" he asked Jaden.
"I am." Jaden replied.
"Then let's get this started." the man then said, before going and sitting down beside Sydney and the other female.
Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
Lee rolled her eyes.
"You could speak properly, instead of cutting your words short." She commented, which net a sigh from Sydney.
There was a reason why she never had all three of them in a room together unless she could not avoid it.
And Jaden was about to see why. They really didn't get along well, but that wasn't something too surprising. Although, overall, Pierre was one that was rather... level... no matter who or what the other party was.

Pierre just huffed a short breath.
"I speak how I want, you speak how YOU want." he told the dryad.
"Right, then." he then said, looking at Jaden.
"Why do you want the job?" he asked him.
"Simply put, because I want to put my blade skills to constructive use." Jaden responded. "And being a hunter really isn't something that calls out to me." he admitted further.
"Heh." Pierre chuckled.
"You're honest, kid. I like that." he said.
"I speak how I want, you speak how YOU want." he told the dryad.
"Right, then." he then said, looking at Jaden.

Quiet! Lady Luna is speaking!- - - -
'Being a hunter isn't for everyone." Lee commented.
"I.... can't understand how Sydney does it." She then added. The vampire just shrugged.
"Hey. I like to not be bored." was her answer.
"You have plenty of work here." Lee countered.
"But it's boring paperwork. So Io shioft that to you guys, and deal with the nitty gritty neither of you like to deal with. It evens out in the end. As a result, I have time, and keep myself entertained at Dani's guild. Simple enough."
