Leonora left the inn after leaving a good tip to the keeper for the ten or so minutes she needed for the 'transformation' so to speak. The uniform wasn't the best fit on her lean silhouette however she had to take from two of the three guards she had knocked out earlier. She had to adapt the pants a tiny bit with a use of one of her feather daggers to lace some string from her former dress, to fit it decently to her waist. , She had to roll in the pant leg bottoms as they were a bit too long for her boots. The top was a bit more loose since she had to choose the bigger of the two guards to accommodate her features. She adjusted the hood over her head as she walked through the crowd using her usual stroll of sorts as she was once a magic knight not too long ago. She knew how to get attention and show who held the power in situations.

This was no different. She nodded to simple greetings and waved when needed. Any attention was to be kept off her as much as possible. That was much easier said then done on her part. She didn't exactly not scream someone who needed to be looked over, nor did she carry herself as a newly appointed commoner to some sort of job position. She remembered the reference of the note speaking of the warehouse and talk of supplies within it's depth that were to go to hage. Hage where the green mantis base was stationed. She wasn't one to read into lines, but maybe she was.  No, she figured one thing. These supplies were not needed for anyone else and certainly not for the green mantis. No If anything she could use these supplies for her own needs to find where Taiyo was and keep him within her sights till she was strong enough to take him out herself. If she needed to ensure she was going to be the only one to take him out, it was going to require some skillful negotiations and insight into those who were going to be his targets.

She took her time getting to the warehouse, making notes of all the layouts of the town from maps she found as well as the allies and streets she could see as she walked by. She took in every stall and person walking towards her or past her. She listened for each and every voice and sound as she looked up seeing the sun setting as she stopped at the last building looking over to a ware house before she moved to the side of the building, leaning against the wall watching the warehouse closely as she watched the guards at the front of it move forward as two more came towards the warehouse. She watched them exchange words and acknowledgements before switching pairs seeing the patrols  switch. She reached into her shirt pulling out the piece of paper, reading the various notes that was written on it by the guard she took it from. She took note this was the changing of the twelve hour shift. She was guessing it was correct as she looked into the building beside her, though a window. Watching the clock tick  away at the time 7 pm. That meant since both the time on the note and time on the clock were correct she had twelve hours to take out these guards and station herself properly to being allowed to escort the supplies.

She decided to move inside the building finding it to be the mask shop she was in earlier. "Oh lucky" She spoke purchasing another mask as she occupied her time roaming the perimeter, not caring if the eyes watching her made note of herself. She was not harming anyone. She was just a newly appointed employee. She wasn't near the warehouse and it would take them a few minutes to walk from their posts to her if they wanted. Which was what she wanted, raise the suspicion of a normal every day citizen, that didn't at all scream paranoia.

She waited till about twelve midnight, under a tree waiting till midnight. The patrols and guards lost interest in someone just relaxing and resting under a tree. She wasn't harming anyone, nor was she going to bother anyone. She was just there to look pretty in her mind, Nothing about her screamed she was a threat. She watched the darkness of night cover the land as she stood up stretching from her tree. It wasn't like the inn in town but there was just something about being out in nature that made her feel so refreshed even if her own back spoke otherwise. She wiggled her arms and legs as she walked to the main road. She knew they have seen her all day watching. It was only time to make a silent sort of entrance.  Heading towards the entrance she moved down a side path looking over her shoulder as the guards the stood post didn't move. Such things didn't sit right with her as she had estimated they would have stopped her, but then again she wasn't near the warehouse walls. At least not yet anyways.

"Lets see, I am not about to go swinging in like a ninja as that is something I wasn't trained for." She spoke to herself thinking of which plan to go about this. She was a up front type of fighter cause after all She was once a crimson lion, they aren't expect all sneaky and range fighters even if some of her crimson lions were just that way. No she loved the up close swung and dance if at all possible.  Now she wasn't against slinging her spells and showing the might within her magic. However, it was hard to truly let free with her snow white flame lit feathers. Being the documented hottest magic within her family if you went based off the temperature of any given flame. 

With the various weapon based skills and type of battle preference down to her preferred outfits, one might have once considered her to be a lot like a rogue even been commented bird like from her preferences of cloaks down to mostly being seen relaxing on some sort of rest  above any gathering or isolated somewhere high. She hated the ground, she loved looking at various views and getting the advantage point in whatever battle she can, so to prepare for any given possibility. What one girl say, she loved battle and love watching wars the different methods and outcomes from even the simplest of things from what each fighter ate that morning, how  they woke even to the very movements of their breath.

Leonora watched the second one as she came out of the trees moving towards him as she whistled getting his attention as she watched the guard turn his attention to her " Halt you a trespassing. Leave now!" He called

She stopped to pounder what he commanded " Yeah your friend said the same thing before I took him out. You can find his body that way in the trees. Or well what is left of his body. Anyways." She said with a signature smirk resting her left hand on her hip "Now question is, Are you going to attempt to stop me or warn your friends? Cause I can go either way at this point." She said

"So the rumors of all vermillion being psychotic was true!" the man gasped as Leonora lost her grin quickly as she narrowed her eyes " Oh you just had to mention that stain's existence. No, Not all of us are Psychotic, Only truly I was born this way and hindered greatly in the acknowledgement of existing within my family and playing the Good little vermillion. Often I was told to be a pretty little flower and to sit down or go play nice. I even went into the magic knights in hope to relieve this itch I have, this calling to hunt and kill." She said cracking her knuckles continuing her walk as she saw the guard take up his blade backing up "I played my part as a crimson Lion, I enjoyed my missions, I enjoyed the small part of the diamond war I was able to partake in. It was a glorious time of bloodshed and power hungry survival of the fittest. Honestly. I miss wars." She said in anger darting forward closing the gap as she side step a swing down then ducked down low of a strike horizontal jumping immediately back up as she back pedaled as the man continued his volley of strikes.

She honestly was enjoying herself a bit too much. She always wondered what it was like to let loose and not care if she damaged anyone or thing. This felt great. She smirked placing her back to a tree before ducking under a swing , feeling the blade get caught in the tree as she stood up leaning on it with a smirk " Hi buddy you know your aim sucks right?" She spoke flicking her hair from her face with her right hand before moving it over her shoulder as if to grab a weapon before bringing it down quickly in a slicing motion causes the spell to activate. Around her hands, pure white feathers seem to form glowing with white flames, with the calamus pointing away from her and curling slightly over the edge of her fingers giving the perception of talons. She sent a quick jab at the distracted solider landing a strike to his face as a burst of feathers came from the contact knocking him back. She watched him stumble back grabbing his face from the burns as she moved forward " I would have ended you quickly but you had to lump me in with the stain of my family. No, I am the only one who gets to call my family psychotic and its removing the living stain so those of my family loyal to clover can live in peace. I will find him again and I will destroy him in due time." She confirmed removing the blade from the tree, tossing it up into the branches, discarding it with ease as she moved to him. grabbing his head pulling him to his feet as she pulled his ear down to her height " I can tell you this cause I know you will never be able to tell a soul. I was caged as a magic knight, Having to play nice was a literal disgrace to me and my heart. I kept quiet in that doll house for too long to watch a spoiled brat destroy my family's heir to the point of snapping and causing the family to fall. But I must thank him. If he hadn't made the family fall, then I would have at some point. "She whispered pulling her head away as she raised a talon like hand striking it through the man's torso granting a second round of intermediate damage allowing her flame lit feather burn his corpse to ashes. She hide his armor and evidence as well as spread the ashes of the guard within the dirt of the road as she closed her eyes taking in a deep breath.

God that felt way too good to be anything but a dream.
