Precious in the sight of the lord the death of his saints.
Psalms 116:15

It didn't take her long to figure out where exactly Ambrosio Enterprises was located. A few questions and she had been pointed in the right direction. However, she stood at the base of the stairs, fingertips rapidly drumming against her leg.

Decisions. Decisions. She had come this far, may as well see this through to the end.

One look back over her shoulder before pushing the double doors open with probably more force than necessary. Fury tended to make an entrance without trying. However, once in the lobby she took moment to dust off the sleeves of her white, woolen peacoat before peeling leather gloves off her hands. They were neatly folded up and put into a pocket.

It was late in the day, probably close to closing. The woman behind the desk almost looked irritated to be interrupted from her closing duties. But, it faded into a smile of professionalism.

"Good afternoon. How may I assist you?"

Fury crossed the space from door to counter in about four strides. Each heel click a little louder than the last.

"I wish to speak with Mr. Fai." A finger tap to the woman's desk, before pulling her hand back.

"He's out of the office for the moment. Shall I tell him you stopped by?"

"No.. I will wait."

She was already heading to one of the chairs in the waiting area.

"But.." The secretary started to say it was going to be awhile and that perhaps Fury should come back in the morning.

"No." Holding up a hand and waving a finger disapprovingly with a tsk.

"I said I would wait for Mr. Fai."

And she would, she would wait all night if necessary.

"Well, who should I tell him is waiting then?

"Amitiel."

The secretary just nodded, and wrote the name down, apparently Fury wasn't going to be dissuaded from her position at this point.

So, she waited for the Sinner's return.

Sinjin Fai

Ambrosio Enterprises was a hilarious facade for Sinjin's businesses practices, most of the time; if Sin even had an office there, he damn well never used it. Poor Sabine had been left in quite a tizzy from the more recent visitors between that strange, pale woman asking for Bastian and now this one, asking for Sin. She was beginning to wonder if it was some strange, practical joke.

Offering Fury a practiced, polite smile, she rose from behind the desk and smoothed out her skirt. "If you excuse me for one moment, I'll.. see what I can do." Quietly, she went to duck into Marcus's office.

Unlike most companies, Marcus worked by night rather than by day, so he was just beginning to settle in when Sabine slipped inside. The tall Irishman raised an eyebrow, pausing beside his desk where he was only just heading to now. "Yes, Miss Sabine?"

"There's a woman here.. looking for Sinjin. Her name is Amitiel. She refuses to leave until she speaks with him."

The name struck true and Marcus frowned, head tipped aside as if listening to unseen voices as well as his own thoughts. He recalled Sophie telling him the tale of Bath Kol; the details that weren't supplied by his little murderer were whispered in his ear soon enough. "I'll take care of it. Tell her it will be a moment." He replied succinctly and continued on toward his desk.




No more than ten minutes later, there was the sound of abrupt bickering from the office door behind Sabine's desk, one voice being the Spaniard's own distinct one. Whatever the argument, it was cut short as Sin smacked the door open, jolting Sabine up and out of her seat with alarm. "Ah -- sorry." He paused, giving the woman a brief grin before squinting at Fury. "Oh, hey. What's up?" Casual as ever as he approached the fallen.

Were Fury more inclined to spend time lurking in corners and in bars she probably could have located Sin sooner. But, she wasn't. So, this is the route she chose to take.

A shoulder lean against the wall, arms slid over one another and she just waited and watched.
No discernable expression crossed her face when Sabine disappeared, nor was there one when the bickering could be heard. Were it possible she was probably sleeping with her eyes open. Shifting her weight ever so slightly as the door popped open and Sin emerged. Ah. The statue awoke.

A faint quirk of brow, followed with a wry twist of lips the Fallen almost seemed amused. However, it was hard to tell. Fury was difficult to read even in the best of circumstances. This was not one of them.

"Oh hey, " Just as casual. She pushed off the wall to meet him halfway.

"I believe we have some unfinished business to discuss. It seems my schedule has opened up substantially."

This was all Fury speak for: You kept your end of the bargain.. I will keep mine.
