"AHAHAHAHA!" Violet cackled into her camera. Honara had just given her brother a big old, end-of-movie kiss, and his shocked face was priceless.

"Now this is some Grade A blackmail material," she started snapping pictures. "Keep that pose, Zulie."

WHOA.  Azulius_Cardamom.exe has stopped working...

Deep in his heart of hearts, Azulius had been hoping for another kiss from Honara before the night was over, but a kiss like that was way beyond his expectations. He stood there dumbstruck, and might have stayed that way for a few hours, if not for the camera flash that he saw a few blocks away. It was hard to tell in the low light, but the faint laughter he heard proved who it was. Violet...

Azzie started to adjust his sleeves, getting ready to enact some revenge. But before he could, some sort of not-Honara behind him was trying to get his attention. The newcomer couldn't have been older than 14, and his clothes carried the tell-tale markings of the Harvester gang. He was fairly small and skinny, which contrasted with his considerably bulky amount of millitary-grade cybernetics, also marked with the Harvester's emblem. He reminded the magician of a little kid wearing his father's suit, if the father's suit was of the "Iron Man" variety.

"Um, good evening, sir," the kid gave a slight bow, his gaze fixed on Azulius's pin. "The path of the Harvesters is open to all."

"But it opens faster to the ones with coin," Azzie replied with a bow of his own. Obviously, this kid saw his pin and assumed he worked for the family. Might as well play along, see what happens.

"I have instructions to give this," the Harvester held up a bulging messenger bag, "to Miss Cardamom.  Very urgent delivery."

"Bad news, slick," the Cardamom put his arm around the kid's shoulder, steering him away from seeing Violet. "The capa has to travel tomorrow and speak with the Don, so she's getting her beauty sleep right now.  Wakin' her up is a real bad idea.  I'll make sure she gets the bag once she's awake.  Deal?" The boy nodded before handing over his cargo and scurrying off into the night.

Overcome with curiosity, Azulius picked the lock in seconds and pulled back the flap. That was a lot of money. You could get into some serious poker games with that kind of bankroll. he turned back to Violet's general direction and smiled devilishly as he held up the messenger bag.

Violet laughed as she watched the scene through her camera, then her laughter stopped. Not long after, her skin turned pale as a sheet of paper, and she gripped her camera hard enough to start denting the plastic.

"Why you little..." she muttered angrily, adding in a chain of expletives and other creative curses that would have made any Marine blush.
