Esperanza had snuck out of the house while Elizabeth was cleaning. She headed down to the docks and met with her other employer, he handed her two large black bags and the keys to a new vehicle. It was a vintage Indian motorcycle that had been modified for faster speeds and better handling. She nodded to him and handed him the extra set of keys to her house. When the exchange was complete and he had driven off in his truck, Esperanza inspected the contents of her bags. One contained clothes, lightweight body armor, some personal belongings, and a large medical kit containing not only the usual items found there, but also some items that were rare ont eh public market. The other bag contained three swords, one very large pistol, an extra set of her spring loaded daggers, and a not so small collection of knives and throwing daggers. Satisfied with the contents she strapped them onto the bike and headed back to Talea's house. When she hit the end of the driveway, Esperanza killed the ignition on the bike and walked it back up to the house. She silently walked into the door just after Elizabeth left and headed into her room. She set the bags down on her bed and went about organizing the contents into the room.
A few hours later she heard Talea call out that it was time to go. Esperanza quickly changed out of the outfit she was wearing and into her gear. For this particular job she chose black leather slacks complete with knee high skin tight boots. On her right thigh she strapped a long knife and tucked one into the opposite boot. Her top was a mottled black and deep red with long sleeves that came down to her knuckles, oh her hands she placed some leather gloves that only covered her fingers and thumb and had metal studs on the knuckles. She also placed on what looked like a choker, but was made out of impact resistant materials that would stop most bullets and stop a knife or other sharp object from cutting her throat. Her regular bracelet knives were on and under a half-jacket she strapped on her one gun, a .454 Casull revolver, not a lot of bullets, but deadly as hell. She packed a small bag, complete with lock-picks, some of her more interesting medical gear, a pair of night vision goggles, beacause she only had the one, and a few other odds and ends that might come in useful and headed out into the living room to meet up with Talea and Masa.
