We Did Start The Fire And We Keep It Burning

——Yok——

Before starting the actual mission briefing P'Gumpa gives his mate a gentle nudge, the Kitsune clearly not happy to be sent out of the room for the planning. After a short stare down P'Sun gives in with a huff. He presses a soft kiss against P'Gumpas temple and ruffles Yok's hair in passing before he leaves the garage. Yok grumbles at the older man and starts fixing his hair, while P'Gumpa just smiled and shakes his head. „I really do not know why he is so dramatic about this every time. It's not like he doesn't know he is not staying for this part. Anyway, Sean you staked out the place, tell us what you learned, please."

P'Sean shifts on his crate, pulling his bag closer to him and pulls out several pictures and his old journal. „The House is pretty much abandoned, so we should not run into any guards or workers there, especially late at night. We should still check before we start the fire, that it is empty, but otherwise we should not run into any problems." Yok takes the pictures, that P'Sean placed on the table, to have a better looks at them: Tawi's House in the forest outside of Bangkok, from different angles as well as some more detailed shots of doors and windows they could use to gain access. He nods handing the photos to Gram. „It looks easy enough, there are tons of doors and windows we can use to get inside and its isolated enough that the fire should not spread to anything else. How do you want us to do this, Hia?"

P'Gumpa looks at all of them for a moment. „Let's stick to the original plan, with a few minor changes due to Black's absence and White lacking his twin's abilities and experience. Yok, you're keeping watch, while the others place the accelerator and stuff inside. Make sure no one sees any of you and that the house is indeed empty before you set of the fires. Sean, Gram you are going to do the prep work and see if you find any discriminating documents or other stuff to proof Tawi is up to something while you're in there. Black would usually do that part due to his stealth and experience, but we will have to manage without him. White, how involved are you willing to get?" All of them turn to face P'Blacks twin at that question. P'White looks a bit startled at being the Center of attention suddenly but recovers quickly. „What exactly is going on? You are after Tawi, planning arson and are clearly experienced in these things. And even more so my brother is doing this. Is this what landed him in the hospital?" P'White looks distressed, not that Yok can blame him. Not knowing anything about them the situation must look pretty worrying. P'Gumpa watches the other for a moment. „We have our reasons, but I am very sure that our activities against Tawi and Black's attack are not related. This mission tomorrow is the first time we move against him directly, instead of trying to get evidence or attention on his corruption through less violent means. But that did not get us anywhere and no matter what we tried as protests there was no coverage. I don't think Tawi has anything on us and even if he does it is unlikely that our actions so far would provoke an attack like that. The house we are planning to burn belongs to him, but its mostly an investment that he barely uses, so its empty and isolated. Burning it down is more a symbolic act than anything else and we are making sure no one is going to get hurt. Which is more than he does in his factories. If we can actually find something to proof his involvement in the drug trade or corruption even better." P'White nods slowly. „I am going to sit this one out, but I'm going to do some research in the meantime talk to some friends, don't worry I will be careful, but I want to see what I can find out. I'll inform you of everything I learn and if you find any documents or stuff, we can compare notes after you're back. Please be careful, Phi clearly cares about you, and I can see myself liking you as well." Yok smiles at the older boy, the expression sharpening into a smirk when he sees P'Sean staring at P'White in wonder. He and P'Gram share a meaningful look. „We will be careful, don't worry. See you guys tomorrow, well drive separately and meet up at the edge of the property. White, we'll be back at the garage later so just come by and wait here if you want to talk to us afterwards", P'Sean instructs, all of them nodding. With P'Black gone P'Sean is the logical choice for leading missions.
