	It seemed that things were starting to get ready to move. Vera was trying to remain focused and not think about what all that had happened outside of the academic aspect of it. Letting her mind wander to anything else was not a good idea right then. Snuffing out the cigarette she took a steadying breath. Leave the barracks, retrieve her things from the museum and the hotel, return here, load up, go to docks, board ship, leave Cairo. Simple right? Yes, make a plan, one foot in front of the other, just follow the steps. It was simple procedure. Nothing more. 

	[color=f7976a]"I am sure you are more than up to the task Uncle. I shall return in,"[/color] she said looking at her watch and them grimacing. She had a lot to do and take care of having to ensure she cleared out two full locations. She would need her books, her notes, clothing might also be a good idea. [color=f7976a]"Oh dear, this might take longer than I anticipated."[/color]

	[color=598527]"Mmm, can I help?"[/color] George asked as he walked back into the room. [color=598527]"Lord Major, mmmm trunk in courtyard,"[/color] he said before looking back over at Vera. 

	[color=f7976a]"Oh um, yes. Please, that would be wonderful,"[/color] she said and George nodded. After a few moments discussion between them things were worked out. They would go in pairs. George was adamant about going with Vera. He knew it would have been what Peter had wanted and it was why he had said he would remain here to help. For Peter.

	The two left the barracks, a single guard going with them. George hoped he wouldn't be needed, the guard, but it was better to have a second set of eyes with him, especially considering George didn't have a full set himself. The two would go to Hotel first and then the museum. Vera let Lauren know she would make sure the cat was tended to since she had to go there anyways. No reason for her to have to make a second trip. Instructions were left for Nora, Mosi, and Mahendra about getting their things and returning back to the barracks post haste. 

	[color=f7976a]"Miss Clark, could you take this too them? While the soldiers here are good at guarding, I wouldn't trust anyone but you to be able to persuade them to hurry things along and convey the importance of such a taste with a guard at their side. If anyone can get their attention, I believe it would be you. I would just fumble and break something,"[/color] Vera said handing over a slip of paper she had written things down on. Not that she believed a script of any sort would be needed. Josephine had demonstrated a knack of remembering things others would forget. Yet sometimes having a signature of someone else helped, or at least she hoped it would. 

	Vera and George left quickly, with a guard in tow. The three hailing a taxi outside of the barracks and climbing in, the driver instructed to head to the hotel for Vera to retrieve her things.[hr]	*Refer to OOC notes for further information.[hr]
