She softly nodded as she understood the need to get out of work clothes completely. Sometimes a fresh change of clothes helped to also shed what we had seen that day and been through, she personally thought that it was good mentally as well. "I think starting in the general area is a great idea," she said. She wanted to know more about the island and each area specifically and she knew the best way to do that was to start at one area, no matter where one at a time. Lucifer

So the tour of the West Slums would start. It was different from the North Slums where the brothel was but you still needed to keep an eye out for petty crime and even knife violence. So off they went with Rebecca looking way more relaxed already. She still needed sunblock but she'd figured out it wouldn't stay round that long. Her higher body temperature even evaporated sweat on her skin before it got a chance to settle. So starting at the market she showed Alicia this holding her hand as they strolled. Next stop was the big food street where the whole long street was one multi-nation food hall and it was a good time to stop for a cooling drink. She got a Chinese iced fruit tea. The sun still beat down without a cloud in the sky and the happiness on Rebecca's face was clear while they showed the world what they had. Alicia Ravenmore

Alicia took more to being out in a way of freedom because she knew that it could and sometimes would be taken away from you in an instant and she did not want that at all. "It's not too hot out here for you is it?" she said as they walked and once they got to the market she was glad that it was a little cooler. "Okay so what do you normally get at the market aside from refreshing drinks of course?" Lucifer

“It’s not too hot Alicia. My element is fire which is why my touch is warm. Moisture evaporates quite quickly on my skin, even sun tan lotion” Rebecca replied. “It’s a thrift market mainly. Little trinkets and people who can obtain larger items like furniture. Here is the best street food on the island” she added stretching out an arm to show her girlfriend the range of food. “I’ve always had a soft spot for Cantonese and Japanese food. I did spend a bit of time in California years back. Then kept moving where the work was” she added. Thinking of California led to thinking of the baby she had left behind and probably wouldn’t meet until she was an adult. A secret very few knew otherwise the girl herself would have had to go on the run like her mother did. Alicia Ravenmore

She nodded as she was now learning and listening and she did like that. "I like fire," she said. She did in a way, looking at it, the warmth that came from it's presence, simply learning to know how far you could go when it came to touching it all things that she did find drew a person to it and kept them near it. "Soft spots for things are good, easier to build memories on I think," she said. "Was California good to you?" Lucifer

California was good for her; it was also eventful and she hadn’t been back since her daughters birth. “It was a good time but you can’t pass on what I’m about to say. It could endanger another life” Rebecca warned. “It was the last time I felt settled anywhere but here could be like that. I fell in love while working for the triad and left a daughter behind. She knows about me but not my real name. I doubt even OSE knows about her but her defacto mother Lucy could have taken her anywhere once her father passed on”. There was more to the story and her look showed that. Rebecca looked sad now but she couldn’t influence a girls life even if she found her again. Alicia Ravenmore

It was not like she would tell anyone anything but she had to admit that she did respect why she wanted her privacy on the issues especially when she started talking. "Wow," she said. "That must be hard to deal with on a daily basis," she said. She felt a little sadness but remained strong. "Okay," she said as she gave her a hug. "It's okay, let it all out." Lucifer

Feeling the hug from Alicia made her feel better and willing to say more. "Not long after I got to the island I got an email from Lucy. It had spent weeks in the dark web trying to find me and it was cryptic. Lucy told me Russell died on a Triad mission and that Sophie was starting to show her powers. She looks nothing like me but at least I gave her flame powers to work with. So Lucy could have went anywhere after that and she'd have be ten years old now and going to elementary school". She was still paying child support and into a trust fund but nobody would have any idea if she died on a job. At best it would take a long time for information to get back to California and the triads but she'd vanish and never be thought of again. That hurt Rebecca more than anything but it was the cost of doing her job. "If I die it'll just be Lucy and Sophie; but if its just Sophie on her own she'll grow up like me. On the run and trying to figure out things on her own" she added as a few tears fell. "Even if I found her how could I be part of her life?" Alicia Ravenmore

She listened. "Okay give me a minute to process this," she said but she still took the time to hold her. "You know what I think that this is a choice that in the end Sophie would have to make. The circumstances are not ones that someone can go back on but if it is meant to be it will always be," she said. "I do not know if you want to eventually try to find her but if you do I will do all that I can to help you, if you want the help, a lot of times i know that someone has to do things on their own as well."

Alicia took a bit of time to process what was going on and Rebecca appreciated the hug continuing. Even the way that the message reached her should tell Alicia that she was in rather shady business and she even been involved in organised crime. As there was already enough in her file she’d never get out of jail if she was ever caught. Alicia came to the conclusion she almost had come to. It would have to be Sophie making the contact as she had no idea where to even start looking. Unless fate intervened and opened up a door. Her tears burned off as she looked back at her girlfriend finished speaking. “I think you’re right my love. And it might take years before it happened. She’s only ten and I doubt she’d even have social media. I know what Lucy is like. I will continue to keep listening even if I don’t know where to look. I would appreciate your help as well”.

"Ten is a curious age or I mean I think it could be a curious age and you know what else, eventually kids will start to ask questions and seek their own answers." She knew she had. "I mean yes it is pretty here but kids are still kids and will want answers to questions that just come into their head for no reason but just the sheer shred of innocence losing itself out to them growing up." She almost sounded worldly. "Do you feel any better now that we have talked, I do hope that you do." Lucifer

“I feel better already just talking about this” Rebecca replied quietly. So Sophie might ask questions already or in a couple of years. Especially as she knew Lucy was her aunt and not her mother. To the world that wouldn’t be obvious. “I guess I just have to be patient” she added giving Alicia a kiss. Then perhaps in the future there would be another message from Lucy once she had more to tell her. Alicia Ravenmore

Relationships were new and from what she had seen at the brothel they did not normally last long but this felt different and she was always so thankful for that. In time she felt that what was going on with Rebecca and her daughter might at least come to a bit of a head though she knew she could not say for sure. "Being patient is the worse," she said as she laughed. "I mean yes you have to be patient it is good for a skill but it still sucks right?" Lucifer

From her short time getting used to the way the slums worked she'd figured night workers here weren't much different from the ones in Montreal, Miami or a Mexican border town. Though better off than the ones she'd seen in Haiti. Having Alicia as her girlfriend opened her eyes that bit more and she'd try and keep this going for as long as she could. Patience was a big part of her real job and sharpshooting was as much about being patient as it was taking your shot when it came. "I'm sure you've figured out that building inspections is not my real job. I've been called a mercenary at times and mainly in the recon and shooting fields. So you need to be patient to do that" she quietly replied. Knowing she'd have to wait perhaps years to figure out where she stood with Sophie would be hard and it would hurt. Knowing she had Alicia in her corner helped a lot. "So what doing you want to do now my love?" she posed. Alicia Ravenmore

She was glad that Rebecca was feeling better because well she hated seeing people feel down. A lot of times she knew that there was nothing that you could do about it but still you had to try it. "Well I can cook," she said. "How about I cook some food? I mean it throws a wrench in our previous plans but you seem to be a little emotionally drained and I hear that food helps things like that."
