With his phone rested between his ear and shoulder, Cepheus rushed into the warehouse while listening to it ring. Immediately his eyes spotted everybody working fast, all of them following his more than strict instructions on what to do as soon as he was informed on what was going on.
Being cooped up in the house with Cassia for 3 days straight, they hadn't spoken to anybody except for Jamila's mom to tell her to keep the kids a little longer. Thankfully, once Cepheus finally did pay attention to his phone and all of the missed calls, none of the investigation had been started yet. The only reason they knew it would be happening was because he had automatic access to every single one of their dashboards just for time like these. The search warrant wouldn't go into effect for another day, however that still meant he needed to get himself together and fall off the map again for a little while.
"Hello-."
"When's the soonest you can load the jet? I'm traveling alone this time." He spoke into the phone while rushing towards the elevator to make his way down towards his office. He was planning on going alone because he just had to make a quick back and forth trip, having to arrange something with a couple people that he knew would be able to wipe him clean of everything. But he also knew the people he needed were greedy, their help without something in return not being a guaranteed.
"Um, soonest? This evening around 11:30 probably." Nodding his head, Cepheus entered the office, slamming the door behind him while clenching down on the gum in his mouth.
"Alright, get mine and get a rental if possible to depart at the same time, two different locations but to the same place. About 6 passengers gon be on that one, all to Russia." He spoke fast, but he didn't have all that much time to be wasting.
"I don't know if we can-."
"I didn't ask all that, get it done." He spat into the phone, before hanging up and tossing the it down onto the desk. Logging into his laptop, he went straight into the database he had connection to. He had no idea how exactly a warrant was placed on him, especially when he'd been careful and cautious in everything he'd done for so long now.
"Reason for warrant non-applicable." Cepheus mumbled to himself, his anger only heightening from what he was reading. To have a non-applicable reason for placing a search warrant meant the only reason one was issued was due to personal feelings coming from the department. His mind instantly going to Michael, having no doubt in his mind that this all stemmed back to him.
Though he put a small pause on all of the Michael stuff to shift his focus on Cassia, it was obvious he missed a little bit since this was all happening. He wasn't shocked Michael resorted to an attempt at a legal takedown since there was really no other way he could've got to Cepheus. He was well aware he couldn't beat him physically, his plan crumbling once Cepheus began to single-handedly kill multiple people under him while him and his people remained untouched.
