One of the best things about moving in with Damien, other than getting to spend more time with his lover, was that he got to spend more time with the fledgelings. Alex and Gale had both opened his eyes to the fact that it wasn't too late to change and they had made it possible for him to try to change properly to be with Damien. He'd made a lot more progress since they two newborns had been brought into his life than he had done before.
What Alec had to say about Arya having a sister that came along with Alec made him pull the hybrid close again. "I didn't think any of her old family survived. If I'd had any idea, I would have sent Arya looking for her... How is she holding up? Can't have been easy to learn that she has a real sister after so many years..." He sighed heavily and sat down, bringing Alec with him.
"When I bought Aryan free, she was only seventeen or eighteen, she mentioned she had quite a few brothers and sisters at one point, but after she was turned she never spoke of them again. I need to talk to this Alexis and find out exactly what her intentions are and why she would reveal herself now," he said, genuinely worried about how Arya was handling this new piece of information. It didn't matter if they weren't on the best of terms lately, he didn't want Arya to be freaking out still. That never ended well for anyone.

Alec was suddenly pulled close to the other, looking up at the other and blinked at the sudden ramble."I think she's okay, you should talk to her Arya asked me to pretty much leave the two alone." He said with a small smile. He gently grabbed Marcus hand, trying to calm the other. He sat down with Marcus and laid his head on his shoulder."Their downstairs...." He said.

Marcus didn't like this one bit. Why would Alexis appear now? What did Gabriel have up his sleeve, sending Arya's own sister to town like that with no warning. He definitely wanted to have a word with her after he learned that Arya had asked to be left alone with the other. He was worried what the two females where doing, they could be trying to kill one another for all he knew. Kissing Alec on the top of his head, he apologized for being so frantic about the whole thing before he went to check on the two sisters.
Alexis wasn't surprised that Arya was distrustful of her intentions at first, but was glad that her younger sister actually heard her out before jumping to any conclusions. She'd been taken away from home shortly after Arya had been sold off. Her parents didn't like how she so obviously opposed of them selling her sister to a brothel and was married off as soon as humanly possible. It was there that she'd met Gabriel. It hadn't taken long at all before she'd become his apprentice instead of marrying a smith.
Now that Arya knew why she'd kept her existence a secret, she went on to explain why she was really in town. She needed Damien's help to sort things out at the Order or everything would fall to bits. Arya agreed to talk to Marcus, but she also made it perfectly clear that she wouldn't be coming with the other three to Damien's. So when Marcus knocked on the door, Arya let him in before she explained everything to her maker. "We owe it to Gabriel to at least try. Damien will have to choose to go himself though, but could you please just support Alexis in all this?" It was obvious Marcus wasn't overly fond of the other blonde's presence and he was quick to walk over and study her face by tilting her head slightly to get a proper look at her.
"This explains a lot actually," was all he said as he let go of her chin and returned to his room. Looking at Alec, he smiled slightly. "I'm just gonna put what I've already packed in the car, and we'll head right home. I want to see what Damien has to say about Alexis before telling him who she is," he said with a sigh. Yeah, he was bringing Alexis along, but he wasn't going to tell Damien that it wasn't his sister. He wanted to see how Damien would react to the uncanny resemblance without a warning.

He wasn't sure how Damien would react to all this. Damien would give his.left leg to help and protect Marcus and Alec, but to help Gabriel and Arya...he wasn't so sure about. He watched Marcus leave, staying put in case something had happened and.nodded at what Marcus said concerning the whole situation before standing up.
Once they got everything into the car, they all headed to Damiens home. Damien had gotten home from work and dressed in more comfortable attire. He was sitting in the living room, reading when he heard Marcus car pulled up. He was clearly happy that his boyfriend was moving in with him. Alec pretty much hgave his brother a hug before running upstairs, actinglike the typical teenager.
"I'm glad your finally here." He said, kissing Marcus deeply.

Alexis quietly did what was expected of her. After Arya had helped her get into some of her clothes. If Marcus intended on trying to make Damien believe for a moment that the two sisters were the same person, Alexis needed to dress the part. After Arya had put the final touches on her outfit, she went along with Marcus and Alec to the rest of Arya's new family.
Marcus kissed Damien back before Alexis stepped out of the car and cleared her throat to get Marcus to step back. Though they had agreed that Arya was staying home, they were trying to figure out if the two sisters could pass for one another without too many issues. Especially since it might be more handy if people thought Alexis really was Arya if she was supposed to get her work done.
Remembering not to be shy or cautious like she usually was, Alexis chuckled slightly. "We do have business to attend to, Marcus. Now is hardly the time for this," she said with a clear British accent, after having listened to her sister she knew that was what was required of her.

He felt the kiss break and a British accent that sounded like Arya. He wondered what his sister was doing here? He stared at her, something was different. This woman sounded and looked like Arya, but something was different. He let them in, taking everyone to the living room while Alec was playing video games, loud shooting could be heard from upstairs till Damien yelled at the hybrid to turn it down.
"Who are you?" He asked the woman now."You look and sound like Arya, but your asmell is.different..." He added.

Alexis kept up the pretense of being her sister for a little while longer until they were in the living room. She made sure she didn't turn and look around like she'd never been there before and she also made sure she wasn't clinging to Marcus. Alexis knew all too much about either of the two vampires to want to cross them.
When her cover was blown, Alexis smiled warmly at Damien, dropping the accent entirely when she spoke again next. "I'm Alexis. Arya is my biological sister. It's nice to finally meet you in person, Damien," she said politely. Now that she wasn't pretending to be her sister, the blonde was a lot easier to talk to and spoke her mind freely without insulting people whenever she could.
"I have a favor to ask of you, I need someone with your talents for a job that can change everything." She needed to catch his interest before she'd lay all the details out for him after all.

He wondered ifMarcus knew.about this, he should have since he was stronger.and older than him. He blinked at what she said. He didn't know Arya had a sister, but the two look so much alike that it was kinda hard to believe that they weren't. He didn't really question it."Likewise." He said.
He cocked an eyebrow at her.next choice of words, she needed his help? "In what exactly?" He asked.

Since Arya was more known around the vampire society than herself, Alexis had either pretended to be her sister or kept her head down in public. As far as the order went, their likeness might actually work to her advantage for once. If they could convince people that Arya was her, Alexis could move about freely within the Order until they figure things out.
"How much do you know about Equilibrium?" she started, knowing full well that Marcus didn't like what she was about to suggest. "There's recently been a slight uprising within the order, if they succeed, our whole purpose for existing will be changed. 'Observe, study and keep the secret' has always been our motto. The people causing trouble want to make our existence known to all the supernaturals and expose the existence of the supernaturals to the humans."
Alexis knew that Damien wasn't likely to want to help the Order for the Order's sake, but if they couldn't weed out the traitors, all might be over for everyone soon enough. "I need someone with your telepathic gifts and no inside information to help weed out the traitors in our ranks. We would reward you generously if you choose to accept the task at hand."
It might have been easier to convince Damien of how much she needed his help if she'd known more about him from personal experience, but as it was she would have to gamble on him not wanting the general population to learn about the existence of vampires and other supernaturals because the moment they learned the truth they would try to eradicate anyone remotely different.

Damien listened intently to what she had to say, so this was about the order. They were the one that had killed Marcus family and taken his memories. He wasn't sure if he wanted to help and it wasn't because he didn't trust Alexis for anything, but he didn't favor the order at the moment. He wasn't completely ignorant though, he knew thatif someone from the order who was a traitor had revealed the existence of ssupernaturals, then a all out eradication would take place.
He looked to Marcus once she was done."You think I should?" He asked.

She knew the history Marcus had with the order and how resentful they both were towards the idea of such an organization even existing to begin with. The thing was, Alexis had had little in the matter and she'd found a home within the Order. It was all she knew, and she had climbed the ranks quickly to have a say in matters like what had happened to Marcus' family. It wasn't the last time a whole nest of supernaturals had been wiped out because their leader was insane. Their policy had changed over the centuries though and they now took in the progeny of insane makers to see if they could be rehabilitated and blend in among humans.
Marcus was stunned to learn how far out of control everything had gotten. How could they not have known this was going on under their own roof? He looked at Damien when he asked his opinion on the matter. "If you did help, the Order would owe you a favor should you ever need anything you couldn't get on your own. As long as Alexis isn't expecting you to join them, I'd say it would be worth looking into it," he said reluctantly. He didn't like the idea of Damien getting involved with the Order, but he'd come to understand that they always paid their debts with full interest, so Damien would be able to ask pretty much anything of them in the future if he could help now.
"Gabriel might not participate in a lot of things concerning the Order anymore, but he still has a great pull when a decision needs to be made and he asked me to ask you personally for help to avoid people asking questions why an outsider was allowed to roam freely. A hunter was recently sent to town on the rogue agents' orders to take out the alpha of the local pack, they may have more on the way to take out anyone who they would consider a threat, including you and Marcus."

How had this order for so out of hand? From what he knew of the order, they had a huge influence over the entire supernatural world and were extremely ancient that Gabriel knew about them. He listen to Marcus and Alexis, sinking everything in. He personally didn't care about someone owing him favors, he was doing this because he felt like he had to in order to protect his love one's from this rogue member.
"So what do we need to do first?" He asked.

Alexis truly didn't know how things had gotten so out of control. She'd heard rumors all the way from the New York offices about the disturbances in the Virginia Quarters and had come to sort them out. It was her job to make sure everything ran smoothly, didn't matter where she was needed to fix a problem, she'd go there and sort it out. Right now they had to sort out this hunter business and make sure it didn't happen again. It was bad enough that regular hunters roamed the world, but when the order sent out a hunter they usually had a very good reason to and it usually went through all the proper channels first. Taking out this Jack person hadn't been suggested on a higher level so she needed to figure out who'd authorized it.
"We need to figure out who authorized a hunter to go after the wolf. Whoever gave the order is most likely the leader of this rebellion. Basically I'll need to take you to our Quarters and give you a tour of the facilities. As long as your telepathy is strong enough to be able to search someone without them noticing and notice an intruder in your own mind, you'll do fine. And should you happen across someone with walls, making it near impossible to read them that's always a good place for me to start," she said, knowing full well that he most likely wasn't able to get anything from her thanks to Gabriel's excessive training. People who learned to built walls like that, generally had something to hide since there were telepaths at most of the facilities anyway.

He had strengthen his telepathy skills to where he could read someone's mind and they don't even know it. "Ok...when should we do this?" He asked. He was kinda surprise that anyone could walk into the place and not be a member. Was Alexis a member, maybe that was why she could just walk about the place and no body would even think twice about it. He looked to Marcus and gave the man a small smile, knowing that he had to be worried about this.

Alexis didn't like this any more than Marcus did. And it was obvious the man was worried about this whole operation. "Just bring him back here unharmed," he said before sitting down on the couch watching Alexis and Damien. She did look too much like Arya to not be who she claimed to be, and it would explain the inconsistencies with where his gifts was telling him Arya was and where he'd seen her.
The blonde pulled her hair into a loose ponytail and nodded at Marcus's request before she replied to Damien's question. "The sooner we get this over with, the sooner I'll be out of your way and the Order will be back to normal. If you ever repeat this to anyone, I swear I'll most likely end up dead, but as a council member I can pretty much take anyone I want on a tour around any quarters around the world for any reason. I can also have the file on your nature abilities wiped from our archives. Only a select few know I'm not just a regular member, but that's why I'm assigned to sort this out."
