[u][b]The Red Sages - Secret Base.[/b][/u][/center]

Aro had followed Naomi, making sure to keep far enough behind that it wouldn't be suspicious, that even if a confederate soldier would attack Naomi, he wouldn't be taken prisoner by association - not to say he wouldn't help her, they were family, after all. He saw several sages who were heading in the same direction, doing his best to avoid being detected by them, as well. They might think him a confederate spy, which would be just as bad as being seen a rebel by the confederatcy. This day sure had gotten a lot more complicated than he had thought it would be, he was expecting to run away from Nikita's husband, not to be roped into joining the rebellion.

Soon, Naomi stopped moving, waiting outside of a compound - the base, Aro could but assume. Aro arrived next to her after a few minutes, flipping the lighter in his hand and igniting another cigarette, keeping the filtered stick of tobacco in his lip while he greeted his cousin. Several other Sages were giving him dirty looks, wondering who he was, and why he was here. Turning to his cousin, he looked at her, and nodded at the two other sages whom were staring him down.

Naomi had explained to the superiors who he was, and he was let into the base, a new recruit, they called him - he would be tested, of course he would be. He was told that they couldn't trust him, and he would have to prove himself, none of it really surprised him. He was a stranger in a secret base - everyone present was committing treason and would probably die if ever found out. Aro was handed a red arband, the shade matching that of his tie, and he grinned as he put that on his arm, the band tightening on the outside of his jacket.

The woman he assumed was the leader went on a to discuss their plans, he never had been much for caring about the big picture, he did what he was told, he didn't really care for why, he trusted the chain of command, even if truly.. This place didn't seem to have that much command. He nodded at Naomi. [color=Salmon]"Who that?"[/color], whispering as if not to interrupt the speech.

Once the speech was over, they were told to interact, get to know their fellow rebels, and Aro grinned. [color=Salmon]"Anyone care to bum me a smoke?"[/color] Heading for the mess hall.
