His eyes widened in surprise. “C-could you really do that?! I will pay you what I would have earned today!!!” Seira nodded slowly. “Sure, you go ahead to your meeting. It’s not like I have anything else to do anyways,” she said and shooed him away. Collin took his stuff, thanked her and promised to be back soon. Then he ran off and for Seira it was time to start her day. She had nothing really to do, still, so she roamed the streets surrounding the harbour and the dock to see whether or not she could find anything suspicious going on. She walked around for a bit, checked with the other Rune Knights but it seemed to be a normal day. It was only until Seira got bored, that she decided to be a little more sneaky. She usually knew where the drug trafficking was happening behind the scenes because she had worked for people in that branch before, so she walked around some of the warehouses close to the docks until she finally ran into someone. There were two men talking about something, one of them was handling drugs over to the other one, Seira could see that very clearly. One of the men, however, seemed to remember Reagan Hullston, a smuggler whom she had worked for many times before. Because she didn’t want to endanger him or his business, she approached them slowly and eventually made her presence knowing. Immediately, when they spotted her, both of them bolted off into different directions and Seira made sure to chase after the man that wasn’t Reagan. He was fast but of course the vampire was faster than him, and stronger as well. It didn’t take long for her to catch him. It was unfortunate of him, really, but it couldn’t be helped. Seira didn’t want to destroy her potential working relationship with Reagan and she knew he would appreciate if she didn’t run after him. Besides, he knew the dock much better than her and he was fairly clever, so she probably wouldn’t have caught him anyways. This other guy, however, was much easier and easily could be blamed for everything as well. That didn’t mean, however, that Seira could just lie to a Rune Knight so she decided to interrogate the man she had captured and see what he knew. It seemed that he knew very well who he was dealing with and who he was smuggling drugs for and she kept him captured until Collins returned, who was very surprised by her achievement. “I caught this one smuggling drugs, but it is up to you how to deal with him,” she said and handed the man over. “He seems to know a few things but I will leave all of that to you. I want nothing really to do with this and the other person who he was with escaped. After all I could only catch one person,” she cleared him up on everything that had happened and he seemed satisfied with it. In the end, Seira was paid and allowed to leave while Collins dealt with the situation.
