Disguise

The taxi stopped at the entrance of a large ancient Greece-like villa in an isolated area.

Aurora paid up the driver and walked directly into the villa through the large gates.

"How may I help you, madam?" The butler asked as soon as he saw her walk through the gates.

"I'm here to see the great seer, sir. Is he home?" She asked with a polite smile and attitude.

"Yes he is, come this way, madam." He said as he gestured for her to follow him.

They walked into the large villa and through the hallway.

Aurora had never been into the old seer's villa before, but she had known him since she was little.

And he adored her.

"Great one, someone is here for you." The butler informed the seer as they entered into a room surrounded by red curtains.

The old seer was dressed in a long red garment, and his eyes were closed as he settled to meditate.

"Ah.. Aurora my dear, come in." He replied happily.

Aurora raised the curtains at the entrance so she could go in to see the old seer.

"You finally come to visit." He said and got up to get a cup and a jar containing some herbs for her.

"You must need this." He said and poured some of the contents in the jar into the cup; then he placed it in front of her.

"Thank you." She smiled brightly and accepted the herb.

"I need a little help from you, Great one." She said after taking a little sip of the herb.

"What may that be, my dear? You know you can come to me for anything." He said with a bland smile.

"Yes I know, great one. But this one is quite crucial and I feel there's a conspiracy going on."

"Between?"

"The government, and most likely the Mafia lords." She replied.

"You want to know more about the blood coin." He stated exactly what she needed.

"Yes, great one." She replied with a slight nod.

He stood up and walked to a table. Then he picked up an old piece of long, cream-colored paper and walked back to her.

"This is a map made by a treasure hunter, who hunted down the coin called the blood coin." He paused to open the map, and it was indeed long as it occupied nearly the whole ground in the room.

"Wow " Aurora exclaimed as she sighted how large and wide the map was.

"That's not all. He made the map because the government made him so they could get the coin for themselves. This has happened in ancient times so it didn't just begin." 

He tapped on an area and continued, "Here, this is the blood coin. Very dull and unattractive but very powerful and destructive. You will really need to be careful, my dear." 

Aurora moved forward to take a clear glance at the coin, and she took a picture of it with her cell phone just in case she forgot its appearance and dull nature.

"Thank you so much, great one. I'll be taking my leave now." She hugged the older man and got to her feet, then she passed through the curtains to leave.

"You are leaving so soon, madam?" The butler asked as soon as he saw her coming out.

"Yes I am." She smiled calmly.

"Oh that's a pity, I have got the cook to make you some cookies." Aurora turned to the tray of cookies he had on his hands.

"Oh, no worries. I can have it to go." She replied and took a jar of chips out of her bag, carefully placing all the cookies into the jar one by one.

"Thank you." She said with a polite smile and took a bite out of one of the cookies.

"Come again, madam." The butler waved.

Aurora waved back and hurried out of the villa. She still recalled the spy and searched around before totally getting out of the villa.

Now that she had everything she needed, she headed to the least makeup store she knew.

"Can I get the ten days makeup and the dissolver, please?" She said this with straightforwardness as soon as she entered the store.

The attendant rushed to get it immediately. Aurora paid, and without waiting for even a second, she left.

She took a cab to Sam Street and alighted the cab as soon as it reached her destination.

She waited stylishly for the cab to leave totally before walking down into a public toilet.

She covered her face with the long scarf and part of her body so the people inside wouldn't see her face.

She walked into one of the toilets to apply her makeup, and after fifteen minutes, she was done.

She took off the scarf to reveal her white blouse, and then she put it into the bag.

She hurried out of the toilet with the bag in her hand, and everyone seemed to be shocked at her appearance.

As soon as she was out, she walked further down the street to an old building for an apartment where she could stay.

"Hello, how may I help you?" A man asked as she approached the building.

"I'm in need of an apartment and I need to see the landlord of the building." Aurora replied with utter seriousness.

"Okay, you are speaking to the right person." He said. "Come with me."

Aurora followed behind him, and they walked up some stairs to a dull and small-looking apartment.

"This is the only free one we have. Can you handle it?" He asked.

"I'll take it." Aurora replied. "How much?" 

"Fifty bucks per month." He watched her expression.

Aurora counted out some money and handed it over to the man.

"I'll pay for three months." She said he handed her the keys, and she walked into the apartment, shutting the door behind her.

She placed her bag on a rusty table and took out a waist-length female suit and a knee-length office skirt from the bag.

She wore it and took off her pants to put on the skirt, then added a black, long wig to match her black outfit and brushed it carefully.

Then she turned over to the dusty mirror on a wall in the side to see her appearance.

With the makeup, she looked plain and reserved, and that was what she needed.

She picked up the documents that Jamal had prepared for her, along with the two cards from the pocket of her coat.

She scanned the cards, tossed the second one into the toilet, and flushed it away.

She had fooled him on purpose so he would think she would use the second card he made.

At this point, she couldn't trust anyone. She knew that people were after her, and that was more reason for her to go in disguise.
