"Ah, and what form of justice is that?" Esmeralda had fought a few "higher-ups" herself, but she was still wary of the stranger. "Execution? So that the government has even more of an excuse to come down harsher on her people?" It wasn't a far cry from what had happened in her hometown of Paris, their moment of victory had been brief, but no group of vagabonds, no matter how skilled and determined, could hold off the entire French army.

Edward looks up "I take the lives of those who are meant to be punished" he says. He looks at her "The government is corrupt and only by eliminating the corrupted ones can the true leaders come up" he says.

Esmeralda's bitterness about her own past rose to the surface, "And when those who were corrupt are replaced with someone even worse, what then? How many politicians do we have to kill before we can finally get some degree of so-called justice." Many of her best friends had died trying to fight for their right merely to survive unmolested, "How many more of our lives would you have us sacrifice?" Her ranting wasn't really at him anymore and her frustration was making her voice thick with emotions she hadn't allowed herself to feel in a long time.

Edward looks up "Lives will always be lost. People will rise and fall as the world turns so. As my creed tells me 'Nothing is true, everything is permitted' " he says. He stands up leaving the Creed mark at the table "We do not turn down people who need help and show potential. All we do ask is that emotions don't cloud judgement. Every life they kill saying it's because of a 'outlaw' is just blood on their hands not ours" he says. He makes two fists as blades come his sleeves as they are small, but like daggers. He looks at Esmerelda "We are planning to assassinate a Navy commander. If you wish to help it is your choice" he says.

Esmeralda averted her eyes and took a deep breath to calm herself down, and stared at the symbol in front of her, "What is this? Some type of fraternity of assassins? You don't even know my name and your asking me to join you?" She looks him in the eye, "Why should I trust you? For all I know you could be setting me up to take the fall for you, since I'm already seen as a criminal it wouldn't be hard for them to believe I'd kill a higher up in some form of misguided vengeance."

Edward looks at Esmerelda "We do not blame the innocent. You only did what was right, stealing from the corrupt and returning to the innocent. As for who you are it does not matter, the creed accepts anyone who wants to help the innocent. I'm going to go and scout out the area, you can stay or go, it is your choice" he says. He starts to walk to the door.

Esmeralda decided not to correct him on his assumption of her supposedly 'good' nature and got up to follow him. Even if he did end up betraying her, she was smart and quick on her feet, the only reason she'd gotten caught before was because she was outnumbered, "I don't mind killing politicians."

Edward nods "We are going to kill a commander" he says. He waits for night as the outpost had guards around it. He carefully walks across a wire and sees two guards who are out of view and inside the outpost. He hops down and takes them both out silently as he sees a well dressed Navy man accompanied by guards as he hides the bodies in a hay cart. He waits for Esmerelda to catch up.

She follows him after he gets off the the wire and quickly makes her way across, her training in dance helping her keep her balance. She nimbly jumps down and silently makes her way over to him. "What does this guy look like?" She whispered under her breath.

Edward looks at her "Look for the only guy who is overly dressed and full of badges and other ornate stuff" he says. He sees the guy with guards "And has bodyguards" he says. He sees him as he pulls out a dart "This dart is dosed with a lethal poison, if we can get in range to where this will hit he will become groggy then violent and shortly die of a heart attack" he whispers as he sneaks around with dagger drawn to take down guards along the way.

Esmeralda follows and creeps up behind one of the guards who had fallen back a bit, she reaches around and covers his mouth with her hand as she slits his throat and he dies without a sound as she gently catches his corpse and lays it down on the ground, so it won't make a noise.

Edward goes up and sees the guards start to split up a bit. He gets close as he carefully throws the dart. It sticks in the guys neck and makes him stagger a bit as he walks. He then suddenly stops and draws his rapier as he starts swinging around till he drops it and gasps before falling to his knees gasping some more before hitting the floor dead.

Esmeralda watched the Captain carefully trying to figure out whether he wanted to stay and fight the guards once they found his dart, or if he wanted to get away.

Edward looks over "Come on" he whispers. He makes his way out with Esmerelda as he sits on a nearby roof. He smiles "You did well tonight" he says.

Esmeralda smiled, "Thank you... And I suppose since you haven't thrown me to the dogs just yet, my name is Esmeralda and I'm originally from Paris." She wasn't allowing herself trust yet by any means, but she was more open to the idea. For some reason killing together seemed to loosen her up a bit. She wondered how twisted that made her.
