"I...I don't know her name...she always calls me and she sounds psychotic enough to be serious about hurting people" Liz replied.
Great...psycopaths...just what someone associated with empaths needs to deal with Cricket thought with anger.

"how do you report back to her, telephone? email? letters? what?" asked Kiki
Indigo came in sucking on a bubble tea, to find Kiki still pinning the girl to the ground
"various ways" replied Liz obviously not wanting to give up what little advantage she still had
"I say we tickle torture her" said indigo

"Screw tickle" Cricket replied with menace, "Lets prie her nails off" Cricekt dropped one of her thin blades into her palm.
With the eye that was facing away from the kid she winked.
"I post letters on the underside of a mailbox at the hidden house near my block..." Liz blurted.
"There we go, that wasn't to har was it?" Kiki smiled, "Now wheres the house?"

"About a black away," said Liz. "I can show you where it is. just let me up. I never wanted to cause trouble. I want to know what's going on as much as you do."
"Well, kid," said Kiki with a smile, "Stick with us and you may find out as much as you want, and more."
With that they took the train to Liz's house and from there walked to the house.

"No fricken' way!" Kiki shouted quietly.
"Abso-friggen'-lutely" Cricket replied, "wait, what?"
"This is my old house!" Kiki emphasized.

"The most important house of them all," said Kiki "The one where the Irregulars first met"
"Do you think they actually live here?" asked Indigo
"Not likely" said Kiki looking around "cause they don't have Miss Liz here put the letters directly in the box, but it cant hurt to take a look"

They headed towards the house. Two twin faces that spelled Mischief.
"Oh crap..." Kiki muttered, "forgot about those brats"
"Oh, no problem I deal with twins every day of my life!" Cricket strode up to the door and rang the bell.
"What do you want!" Shouted a voice from behind the door.
"A word with the owner(s) of the house" Cricket replied with a grin that rivaled that of the twins.
"That would be us!" Two voices chimed and the door opened up.
"Have you noticed anyone collecting mail in the ally behind your house?" Cricket asked.
"That depends...who's asking and whats in it for us?" They smirked.
"Anything you want." Cricket said genuinly.
"Then come in" Twin number one said.
"Have some tea" The second finished.

Tara followed kiki in, sticking her hand in her pocket where she had a hidden dagger. The twins didn't seem like they wanted to kill tehm, but you never know.

The twins made a list of demands that, had the irregulars agreed to, would have left them exiting the house with no information and no clothing.
However, once the twins had exhausted themselves with their requests, Cricket spoke up.
"Well. We won't give you any of those but I will give you a Coupon book to the hottest place in New York" Cricket said, pulling the book out of her bag and then hesitating to give it to them.
The twins took the bait they took the coupons without even looking at what they were for and told the irregulars that a woman checked the useless mailbox behind their house every Tuesday and Thurday around 6 pm.
The irregulars thanked them for their time, exited with their information, and the twins were left with a coupon book to Crickets cafe.

As the Irregulars left, Tara slapped Cricket a high five. "Way to go! Who do you guys think that woman is?"

"Who knows..." Kiki replied, shooting Liz an untrusting glance from behind.
"We could just stake out the mailbox sometime....Or" Cricket said, light bulb going off in her head, "My sibs could do it for us! We could introduce them to the girls when they turn up at my cafe and then they could wheedle their way into their good graces and keep and eye on the woman for us. Alistair, on top of his pickpocketing skills has what Dr. Swoon calls projective recall. he can transmit memories to as many people he wants, so the twins wouldn't even need a camera to capture her image."

"Would they truat him?"Tara asked. "I love the twins dearly but their not exactly social butterflies."

"They should be fine. Twins tend to have a way with other twins. Both pairs understand the connection such siblings have and subconciously fomat themselves to cope with the others social needs. Either the twins will talk more or the girls with talk less." Cricket replied.

Tara nodded like she understood what Cricket was saying. "You know, I feel kinda bad using your siblings this way. Are you aur ehtey won't mind?"
