“What will that do?” Bill asked confused, but Tord just shrugged.

“I'm not sure either…” He replied his mind flashed back to what Cat and the second shadow had said, well more specifically on Cat's threat.

“It sounds really silly… but I'm not the one to judge at this point…” Bill sighed, “but you’re going to have to visit the Uniform department for your disguise.” Tord realized exactly what that meant.

“Well fuck..” He sighed, getting a disguise ment a few things for him, and none of them ‘fun’ for him.

“You better get going sir…” Bill said, snapping him out of his thoughts.

“Yeah I better.. Just inform Paul and Pat on her condition, while I'm out. Make sure Kathiren does not see her sister.” He told Bill, who nodded in agreement as Tord left. He picked up his radio from his side and switched to the private channel with only him and his fathers. “Hey can you two meet me in my office?”

“Yeah sure we'll head down there in a sec!” Pat replied, Tord sighed and kept walking. He was thinking about how to explain what he had to do. While also keeping Cat's threat in his mind, would Kathiren actually kill him if her sister died? The answer was most likely yes, Kathiren was extremely attached to her sister, same thing with Hyacinth. The two helped each other with support and care. The only time he'd ever seen Kathiren smile or laugh was when she was with her sister. So he needed to do this seemingly stupid mission, or one of two things could happen. One being that Kathiren kills him, or two, he loses two valuable assets to his army. Hyacinth was valuable for being a Felix Ceeius. While Kathiren was valuable for her unique observing skills, along with her craftsmanship to make something useful for a situation that wasn't thought of before. Before Tord realized he was at his office, he opened the door and was met with his parents. “So what did you need?” Pat asked him, and he struggled to find the right words.

“I...um... Need you two to command the army for about… two days?.. I need to take care of something..” He sputtered out, and Paul nodded.

“Mission?” Paul asked and Tord nodded, “Just don't be longer than two days, and don't get caught. Remember you're a wanted man.” He told Tord, who nodded, “Now go to the uniform department and get your disguise.” Tord nodded and left the room. When Tord opened the door to the uniform department and walked in, he saw Kathiren staring at a broken door to a dressing room. Ada came up behind her, carrying a few folded uniforms, and tapped her on the shoulder. Kathiren looked at her, Ada handed her the uniforms.

“Here's your uniforms.” Ada told her and Kathiren nodded.

“Is Liv okay?...” She asked and Ada looked at her.

“She's...well.. Doing well… she's still unconscious..” Ada answered, and Kath nodded sadly, “But hey, don't worry. I'm sure she'll be out of it in no time!” Ada reassured her, Kathiren nodded again. “Anyways, we put extra materials around the bands for your protection. And, gave you some room on the inside for small modifications. You have 4 pockets, two at your sides and two on the inside.”

“Okay. Thanks..Tell her I'm sorry when she wakes up, please..” Kathiren sighed, and Ada nodded.

“Of course.” She replied, watching as Kathiren left, she turned her attention to Red Leader. “Red Leader, Sir did you need anything?” She asked him, he hesitated before answering.

“I need a disguise for a mission… I need to look like a civilian.” He told her, and she sighed.

“Yes sir.” She told him and led him to a room.

-2 hours later-

She had finally made him not look like the wanted man he is. She laid his horned hair flat, and covered the scars on his face with makeup. She had him put on a black hoodie, gray pants, and a pair of sneakers. She also managed to make his robotic arm look like a prosthetic one. When she was done, she held up a small hand held mirror.
