Wei walked through the gate of the Cemetery with a shovel in his hand. Miguel was already digging. It was around one AM and everyone in Sandrock was sleeping except them. "I have a horse waiting for us, so when we're done, we can put the body on there and we'll take him to the forest."

Miguel nodded, continuing to shovel dirt out and keeping his eyes on their surroundings. "I was going to send Justice to the Temple for Arvios little accident but it's not high enough, it wouldn't kill him. Instead, I'll have him go to the top of that mountain behind Civil Corps, telling him I saw someone suspicious up there. That someone will be Arvio."

"Arvio will go there because I'll tell him the same thing that I saw someone suspicious. He's very curious and will want to investigate. When he gets there, Justice will be running by on his horse and knock Arvio off the cliff and bye, bye Arvio." Miguel chuckled, the chuckle becoming an evil laugh.

Wei grinned and when the shovel hit something he began brushing off the dirt until he uncovered the coffin. "I'll get the horse." He ran off to get the horse while Miguel opened the box and winced when he got a whiff of decay. "Sheesh Yan, don't know if you stink more in death or when you were alive."

Wei rode up on the horse. He dismounted and walked the horse over to the grave. He helped Miguel load Yan onto the horse and then tied the body down. They were each covered in dirt. "Go get cleaned up and get Arvio into place, I'll take care of my brother."

Miguel nodded and headed to the church dormitory. Wei took off on the horse, the body behind him and headed for the forest outside town to take care of Yan.

Miguel showered and changed and put the dirty and torn clothing in a bag and put them in a garbage bag and took the bag to the new incinerator QI had invented to rid Sandrock of useless items they couldn't use in commissions or anything else.

Once he was satisfied that the clothes had burned, he made a point of walking fast to the General store where Arvio lived upstairs. He knocked and when a sleepy Arvio answered the door, he gave him a look of panic.

"Arvio, I was walking down the steps by the Civil Corps, and I saw someone up on the hill. Someone could be in trouble up there. I came to you because I know you've been curious about things there. I also don't want Justice thinking there might be a problem. I think someone is just lost. Can you go look?" Miguel said to him, pretending to be worried.

"Sure Miguel, I'll go right now. Do you want to come?" Arvio asked, locking the door behind him.

"No, these old bones wouldn't make it up that steep hill. That's why I came to you, you're young and agile." Miguel said, giving him a creepy smile.

Arvio missed the glance and nodded. "Okay, I'll let you know what i find." Arvio took off toward the mountain behind Civil Corps and Miguel laughed then walked to the Civil Corps.
