"Everything is going to plan my master" the man in the office said to whom ever was on the other end of the telephone. "The trucks are almost loaded. We can leave within half an hour."
"Good" came the second voice on the other end of the phone.

"And has the quarry taken the Bait?" the voice on the phone continued. A voice the Scarab was sure he recognised from somewhere.

"Yes my master, they are outside my door as we speak." The big guy in the suit looked down at Sugar as she struggled. His smile was wide, he was enjoying every moment of her discomfort. She doesn't hear the voice on the other end of the phone talking, but the Scarab does. What Sugar does notice however is that the end of the rope appears to be in reach all of a sudden when it wasn't before.
"Tewksbury's snot nosed little student is nothing if not predictable. Very well, call me when its done!" The familiar click of a phone call gone dead sounds in the Scarab's ear as he reaches the door. The behind which some kidnapper had just been speaking on a telephone to the man who killed his mentor. Reginald Tewksbury. A man he knew only as Mr Zorn.
[OOC: Spikey, apologies, but could there be a positioning check? I
assume Bast is at the foot of the stairs while Scarab is still more in
the main area while the other three are upstairs.]
[That's what I assumed yes.]
Tag in the hand...
