Ellie: Lacie is that you?
Lacie: Yes Ellie! Are you already training?
Ellie: I'm not the best because I sit around, I am because I train constantly.
Lacie: Miss.. You've never taken a break since you learned what type of family you had.
Ellie: Lacie. Everyone here is under strict instructions to never talk about my family or my previous upbringing. Right now I'm more concerned about rescuing the division commander. Tonight I'm in charge, and I'm alone. If I'm captured I'm getting myself out. I need to be prepared! Not even I am invincible..
Lacie: Im sorry Miss, I spoke out of line. I'll get you ready for tonight. Heavens it already three! We must hurry Miss!
(In no time Ellie is heading for exit dress in all black leather. Her brown lace up boots fit snugly on her calves. She wears her hair in a half up ponytail, and masks her facial features beautifully so nobody will see or recognize her face. Along her belt are several daggers placed strategically for easy access.)
First Rou Commander: Ellie today you are being tasked to rescue the division commander. Tonight he will have a trial for conviction. Every person from Vetia will be watching, because it aired that the Rou Rebel division commander was captured. It is especially crucial you do not show your face.
Ellie: Yes sir. I will succeed one way or another.
First Rou Commander: Good. Now go!
(Ellie jolts into action beginning a fast pace towards the doors before being spoken to.)
First Rou Commander: Ellie.. everyone believes in you..
(Ellie then turns around swiftly and gives him a piercing glare. Ellie has never accepted any gesture of love from anybody, and she wasn't about to start. She nods quietly and heads off once again.)

(Ellie's quiet pitter patter of footsteps sound throughout the forest. She walks quickly sometimes hopping up a tree to check her direction then bouncing to the next tree and back to the ground. She then spots what she's looking for. The dim palace lights in the distance excite Ellie as she is nearing her destination. Slowly closing in she fastens herself to a harness and thrusts a rope up to a room with no lights on. Swiftly she climbs up, and grabs a hold of the stone banister. Hoisting herself over the ledge and onto the balcony she unties the rope and let's it fall. Not wasting any time she open the door to the room, and using a push panel on the wall to reveal a long dark passageway. She follows the passage until it ends at a trap door with a simple black X encrusted on it. She then slowly opens it and hops on the rafter below. Fastening a cable around a bar and a harness to herself she sits pulling out three daggers, and begins to wait for her time.
