Garnet had waved her hand in Shani's direction, gesturing for her to be patient for the time being. There was much to be discussed.

"You're very proud of your profession I can tell," she then spoke to Margrit as she voiced her opinions on the people who attacked her. She even started to laugh a bit herself. "The 2nd, you won't have to worry about I'm sure, since he didn't have the balls to finish the job."

She then turned to Vale to answer some of the questions she had about the assassins who came after her. "They didn't have anything flashy on, just the crescent moon badge on their person. They were dressed up as civillians, and masks covered their faces. They did carry a fun little stun rod though... luckily I've read the data on said piece of technology."

"Aura-disabling gear..." Blaine assumed, and got a nod of confirmation from Garnet.

"I would say that is something big to worry about," Rina commented, thinking that the hitman may come back with reinforcements.

Garnet took a sip from her water, and shook her head in disagreement. "The assassin? No. You got bigger fish to fry."

Amy had agreed, but felt there was something off about what was said earlier. "You had mentioned that the Grimm attack was a diversion? Why do I get the feeling that there was more to that plan than just exterminating a pest?"

The coordination just seemed off to her. Trained killers are supposed to silence their targets without causing a stir, yet the situation was utter chaos. One of the assassins had retreated, instead of dying in action.

"Oh, you've got some keen senses there kid, I'll give you that," Garnet complimented. "That attack wasn't necessarily a diversion to lure me out of hiding... more or less an opportunity to grab as many new test subjects all at one time."

The room went silent for a bit, once the true nature of the plan was revealed. It had made sense to Amy, thinking back on how after defeating the Alpha, there were no cries of help from anyone who wasn't able to escape. Some blood splattered on the ground, yet no traces of a body or where they ventured off to. After the events, nobody in the group had been told of any missing person reports or a death count; they went straight back to the tavern.
