Mission Possible
https://youtu.be/tGSUjuSBt1A
Damien arrives at the police station to pick up his identification papers. Jamie accompanies him and enjoys meeting the police chief. The new plan is reviewed by the chief, and he approves the addition of Lee. He wants all parties involved to meet this afternoon. After the meeting, Damien can move into the house they've set up for him to 'rent.' The chief decides Spring Manor will be the safest place to gather. His undercover agent can't afford to be seen entering the station. He transmits a coded message to his agent when and where to meet them.

She and Lee shop at the local store and obtain a few of the needed items. However, some items are not available in the store. Lee examines the alchemy book on display, but it contains nothing he has not already learned. After speaking with Emmaline, he knows where to find the remaining ingredients.

She points out some areas in the main kitchen that are not up to par with the health code. He nods and tells Bekka he was authorized to open if these are resolved within a few months. He specializes in fresh seafood dishes and specialty desserts. He wants his restaurant to be a place where patrons can unwind and enjoy a unique experience. She opens her digital portfolio and unveils her plans for the kitchen, dining room, and other areas currently closed off. He is extremely pleased with her ideas and signs a contract right away.

He includes Bekka and Layla in the hopes that they will help him with part of the project. Elias is included because he will be accompanying Damien. They meet before the chief and his men arrive.
When Bekka and Layla hear the plan, they are concerned for Damien's safety. Even with the safeguards that Jamie, Lee and Elias can provide it seems risky. They do agree to assist Damien.

https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51410586846_92946cf291_o.jpgJamie leads the way to the meeting room. Before long the undercover agent arrives letting himself in through the back entrance that was left open for him. Damien introduces Chief Gerard, who will lead the meeting as well as Detective Scott Abbott and Dave Wilson. Everyone understands their role in the operation. Elias has moved to the front of the room and made himself invisible to all but the family. Damien has not disclosed to the Chief that his informant is a ghost.
“Remember, this is a search for evidence of who authorized the murder of those in the warehouse. We know who authorized the arson thanks to Damien's snitch. But is it the same one who sent the other couple to their death? We need evidence in order to provide justice and prosecute the guilty parties.”

Fake text threads are on the phone so it does not look too clean and new. He hands out ordinary watches that do some extraordinary things. "Jamie and Lee are involved for additional protection in case Damien is compromised and his watch and phone are confiscated. They should not enter the premises unless you are in trouble. They will be stationed nearby in a safe house we have retained to observe the comings and goings. Damien will wear a separate tracer from his phone and watch. It not only keeps track of his whereabouts and his health, but we can hear and record the conversations he has with the members of the syndicate. If for any reason the tracer goes silent we will immediately launch a rescue operation. From what I understand, Jamie will be tuned into you psychically and may actually know before the tracer."
Jamie puts his watch on and checks that it is working properly. He turns to the Chief. "Yes, I will know if anything is wrong with Damien as soon as he knows. I will alert Lee and we will begin our plan."

The other was stubborn and required the use of the Banshee Banisher. Liam has arranged for others to cover for him for the next few days but he is still on call tonight.

Layla uses her powers to transform his appearance. Bekka creates a less conservative wardrobe for him. Damien stares in the mirror, unsure if he likes what he sees, but perhaps it will help him act like the criminal he is supposed to be.

He will be thinking about her and not to worry. Everything is going to be fine.
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51412281595_5d50993110_o.jpgLee catches Damien just before he is about to leave. He hands him a package.
"Please carry this with you at all times."
Damien looks in the package. He recognizes a few potions that Lee said he would make to send with him. But, he is puzzled by one item. However, he trusts that Lee knows what he is doing. He nods his head and replies, "Ok, will do."
https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/51418810209_be1e0c6057_o.jpgGrabbing Elias’s gnome Damien walks through the back of the property into the forest. He meets Dave, the undercover officer at a prearranged spot. He receives directions and keys to the house he will be staying in. Dave warns him about the house.
"It is disgusting in appearance, but it is looks only. The place was designed to look worn out and neglected. The sheets are clean even if grungy looking."
