"It might be but I am not going on the assumption that it is. If they ask I will get us through I hope." She had a pretty good story if they got stopped but she did not think that they would at least not too much as long as they moved swiftly and not too slowly. "How have you been this aside?" Lucifer

Given this was an unexpected job for her Rebecca just had to play things by ear but surely cargo got collected all the time from there. “Let’s do this then” she replied and they got to work. Only a few hours ago she’d been meeting with several gangs to gauge how much things were improving in the slums. Progress was quicker in some fields such as dealing with the trash and the rats but she did feel hopeful that she could guide better over time. This was new to her just like everybody else. “I’ve been good. I have made contact with my daughter at last and she’s 12 now. I couldn’t be a full part of her life but things are stable enough to allow it now” she added carrying one of the duffel bags. Hopefully this would go a smoothly as picking up your mail. Lyric Carson

"Wow," she said as they were moving and then she shook her head. "I mean that's good right? If she did not have anything against you then it's fantastic and maybe one day you two can talk about anything?" Lucifer

“It’s certainly an improvement but it’s better if she stays in the orphanage for a while longer. I don’t want to disturb what progress she is making there and she’s getting on like a big sister” Rebecca replied. “We’ll get to that point but she’s such a good girl and so helpful. She bakes for the orphanage and makes up support dolls for the children”. She wondered if her life had worked out differently how helpful she’d have been. On the other hand she most likely wouldn’t have had a child in California if things hadn’t worked out that way. Lyric Carson

What she did not say was that she was honestly just hoping with each step they blended in enough to not get caught. It was hard to know that you could do well but once these jewels hit the island nothing would be able to stop them. "That is something to be proud of in itself," she said as they crossed with the first set. "This is such criminal activity but it feels good not that I could do much past this," she said as she laughed. Lucifer

They were just collecting their parcels the way Rebecca seen it. If customs didn’t do their job right that was hardly her fault. “I do hope things keep going well for her. She does seem to make friends as well” she replied trusting her daughter to not be stupid but she had a feeling that Sophie would ask questions if she needed answers. “That’s one done. So why would they be suspicious now” she remarked. It was a big pickup and the second run should be smooth as well. Lyric Carson

"I am not sure but I mean does cargo even have a time? I see a lot of ships going in and out of this place so I figure we will not be looked at too suspiciously and if we are I got pepper spray." Lucifer

"Ships are the lifeblood of this island. Some of them don't even dock officially. I suppose its like collecting your mail. If you leave cargo too long they'll assume that you aren't going to collect it then sell it off " Rebecca observed as smuggling would happen anywhere you had a coastline. Pepper spray was as good as her ability was if you got close enough. "I don't think you'll have to worry; they'd have been suspicious much earlier than this" she advised. "Right. Next run" she said.

She did not know if this made her a bad guy but she knew that it did not make her innocent as a matter of fact the lines were starting to blur. "Does this make me an accomplice?" she asked. "I am trying to figure out how much jail time I might be looking at if this keeps up." Lucifer

“Smuggling has been going on as long as there been civilisations. Once goods got taxed smuggler were seen as criminals and that has yet to change. If all my former smuggling was taken into account I’d have plenty of jail time” she replied. Especially as her other crimes would mean she’d never see daylight again if she ended up in prison. “If it’s your first time not a lot of time. If you’ve a history like me a very long time” she added. “So try not to get caught. However you could be somewhere in the grey area of anti-hero as well”. Her opinion as that was the path she was trying to steer to. Lyric Carson

Once the second load was in she was glad as she turned to Rebecca. "I owe you a phone which I will get to you within the next couple of days," she said. "I do like the idea of not getting caught it is much better in the end." She did not think that this would lead to a life of crime but you never knew. Lucifer

This looked like they were nearly finished but they just needed to drive away from here and let the parcels be distributed. “I’ll wait for the phone. You just need to be careful” she replied. So once in the car she asked “where do these need to go now?” The next stage in finishing of a smuggling job. Lyric Carson

"We just need to drop them off at the research facility. Apparently these are Ashford Research Materials and put the cc back on it addressed to someone named Mickie Reed. I've never met the lady and don't plan to but she will get them over the next few mornings." Lucifer

“Never heard of her but that’s not entirely unknown doing this. It is ARI material but perhaps they couldn’t bring this in themselves” Rebecca mused. With her closer links to Avery and indirectly to ARI itself it didn’t bother her that they’d never get to know this Ms Reed. Even corporations had occasions when what she prefered to call alternative routes were needed. So when they reached ARI proper Rebecca showed her business ID and let Lyric explain they were making a delivery. Rebecca’s small company was known as she had the contract to maintain camera systems but she could only access so much of the software element. Lyric Carson

She nodded. "I am sure she is expecting it." She sighed. "Thanks again, what kind of phone do you want?" She was good for her word after all. Lucifer
