An Unknown Threat?!

Side Chapter: The basement

The Elliott estate was quite busy with the various activities going in all the Servant Class Drones preparing the estate to be in perfect condition as requested by their human master. Some drones had differing opinions about James Elliott forcing them to maintain the place in such a manner that was practically impossible. Though for one drone she didn't particularly feel over worked as she was rather excited to be seen as "useful". The drone in question was none other than Cyn who was walking beside her brother a large grin on her face as she was helping him move things.

Cyn: -Happy humming- Oh I cannot wait.

N: You've been saying that for a while Cyn. But you still haven't said why you're so excited.

Cyn: -Surprised gasp- I am planning something. Something very nice for me myself like you did big brother.

N: Well, what has you so excited?

Cyn: It's a secret. I don't want you to ruin it.

N: I'd never let a secret out Cyn.

Cyn: J told you to not mention that we didn't clean the bar and you blurted out that we didn't clean it.

N: Oh yeah. Well, I hope you're ready for a whole lot of work because that Gala is going to be big.

Cyn looked at N confused it wasn't surprising to N as he was sure Cyn was invested in planning whatever she was doing that she'd likely forgotten about work.

N: All right buddy have you been paying attention to the schedule.

Cyn looked around clearly trying to avoid her bothers look as she admittedly was far more pressed on making her plan.

Cyn: I looked overlooked it -Nervous laugh- ha-ha-ha.

N: Cyn?

Cyn: -Embarrassed expression- I have maybe overlooked a few things.

N: A few?

Cyn: Most things.

N: Do you feel better telling the truth?

Cyn: No. J will get mad at me.

N: J isn't too bad. She'll understand just don't mention you know who.

Cyn: -Annoyed expression- It's not my fault she is such a-

N: Cyn.

Cyn: I wasn't going to say anything too bad.

N: Cyn, you know that we have to be on our best behavior, right?

Cyn: I am well behaved. -Pouting face- I enjoy her brother far more that her. She should learn to love something other than her job.

N and Cyn arrived at their destination a clear sign that they made it to the right room was J standing next to Tessa and listening to Tessa talking about having to be fancy. Cyn had no idea what "being fancy" meant but Tessa didn't seem to enjoy it.

Tessa: Ugh why does my dad have to make all of you work so much the gala is so far away.

J: You know that the company prides itself on appearance.

Tessa: Do you enjoy the workload J?

J stopped and looked around though not in Cyn and N's direction but even then, she was scared to give her honest opinion. J heard what happened to Q when he was caught complaining and no one wanted to meet Mr. Elliott's wrath. Not even the Higher Ups dared to upset him.
