Charlotte’s Place:
Charlotte pulls into her driveway and plugs her motorcycle in. She was feeling a little tired from staying awake all night. It was amazing how similar she and Casey were. She notices when she walks into her place, that someone has been in her place. She pulls her gun out and looks around.

When she gets to her bedroom, she notices her friend Kai was asleep in her bed. She puts her gun back into the holster and takes her gun belt off. She notices that Kai’s knuckles were bruised and that she had a bruised on the side of her face.

“What happened to you?” Charlotte strips out of the bodysuit she had on and put it away.

Charlotte slips into bed and lay next to Kai. If there was one woman that knew how she felt, it was Kai. Kai was just like her and if it wasn’t for her support and encouragement. She might have dropped out of the service earlier.

She snuggles close to Kai as she falls asleep. While she is sleeping, she feels Kai wrap her arm around her waist. She loved feeling Kai holding her. Their relationship was more of best friends, then lovers.

When Kai wakes up, she finds her best friend Charlotte snuggled next to her. She had wonder where she had gone because she wasn’t home when she came over last night after work. She looked so cute, now that she was home and out of the military, they could make up for lost time.
She places a kiss on Charlotte's cheek, as she gets out of bed. She heads towards the bathroom to check the bruises she received last night during the fight. She had to toss three men out of the bar last night for grabbing some of the waitresses.

She had a bruise on her right cheek and her knuckles were still red from last night. There were a few bruises on her upper arms and on her chest, where the one guy sucker-punched her. At least she could use some make-up to cover the bruising on her cheek. She fills the tub to soak.

Master’s Bedroom, Neopatras:
Casey and Leslie arrived back to the yacht. Leslie was dragging her feet by the time they arrived at their quarters. Leslie was already taking the bodysuit she was wearing off and crawling into bed. The only thing she still had on was her bra and panties. She gave up trying to remove the necklace around her neck. It wouldn’t come off.

Casey managed to completely remove all her clothes and laid down next to Leslie. She noticed that Leslie was wearing some sort of dragon necklace with a jade middle piece. There was some writing on it in the middle, but she was too tired to translate it. She does wonder where her wife got the necklace.

She lays down next to Leslie. She’ll ask her later where she got the necklace. She does remove Leslie’s bra. She knows her wife doesn’t like sleeping with it on.

Leslie wakes up five hours later in Casey’s arms. She felt Casey’s body pressed against her back. Casey’s arm was resting on top of her own arm. She just enjoys laying there in her wife’s arms. As she is laying there, she does wonder who the people who arrived were and what type of work they did.

Leslie absentmindedly rubs the necklace resting against her skin. She tried taking it off, but it wouldn’t come off. She felt safe in Casey’s arms and couldn’t believe, that they were married to each other. She strokes Casey’s arm as she held her.

“How is it coming, Penthesilea?” Sandy walks into the room Penthesilea was packing up.

“Almost done, Sandy. We might have a problem with some of the items we found. Some of these artifacts belong to the Hawaiian people.” Penthesilea knew her history.

“Alright, once we get them back to the mainland. I’ll call Cheshire and she can arrange things with the Governor for their return. Is there anything else?” Sandy knew all the items they came across were from throughout history.

“Yes, we found three silver coins that belong to Judas and one of the nails from the cross.”

A surprised look appears on Sandy’s face “are you sure about the coins and nail?”

“Yes, I’m one hundred percent sure about them.” Penthesilea's special gift nearly knocked her out when she touched them.

“How in the hell, did this person get those items? They are supposed to be locked up at the Vatican.” Sandy knew the Vatican didn’t like
anything dealing with the cross or Christ's death to be out of their hands.

She knew who had the Spear of Destiny and they had pieces of the cross itself in their more secure vaults. Sandy knew they were going to have to put these items in there as well.

“Alright, make sure they are marked as special and secure. They are going to have to be placed in our special vaults when we get back.”
Claudius finishes up the room he was in. It was the room that the street magician had found. He noticed one of the display cases in the room was empty, but according to some pictures and a report he found. The amulet of Toy Xiao-xing was missing. If he remembered his history right, that was one of the most ancients of Magicians from Chinese history.

Claudius also found genetic samples of people that the person was studying and was planning on using. One of the samples happened to belong to the first King of Hawaii. He wonders if the women who were here knew what they had gotten themselves into. Now that the Hunter organization knows about them. They will come after them.

“Sandy, we have another problem. The Hunter organization is going to come after those women we met earlier. We need to warn them.”

“You know we can’t get involved with that matter, Claudius. We must stay neutral in this matter. However, I can warn Cheshire and she can relay that warning.” Sandy knew they couldn’t get involved in any matter that was going on between countries, clans or organizations.

That was part of their charter and rules. They were to only observe and record everything. If they were attacked or were protecting artifacts, then they could defend themselves and the items they came to get.

Only a few leaders and Warlords have ever broken that rule. They found out afterward what happens when you break your word and agreement with them. They have the means to retaliate if they need to.

“Sometimes, I really hate our charter.” Claudius punches a nearby wall.

“So, do I Claudius, but if those women work for either Cheshire or The Devil’s Bounty Hunter, they can take care of themselves.” Sandy knew
the reputation of those two people and never wanted either of them to ever come after her.

Sandy checks all the packages they had so far. The count she had matched what she had.

“Bonosus, how is the loading coming?” Sandy walks over to a huge short black hair man.

“We still have plenty of space left over. I figure once Claudius, you and Penthesilea is done. We’ll still have space for anything extra.” Bonosus turns to look at Sandy.

“Alright. I want to get back home as soon as possible.” Sandy misses working on the artifacts they brought back from South America and Mexico.
