November 4 & 5
For this all to work, two things will happen at the same time. Riley and Murder Bot will take out the more dangerous of the three targets. I, as Lee the Second Cup Barista trainee, will poison the coffee the other two targets. Levi will be a customer in the Second Cup and will hopefully muddle their minds so they do not notice any changes in their coffee. My parents will be close to snatch me and Levi and I to safety in case something goes wrong at this stage. Blythe is to handle the targets after, complete the mission, by making sure help does not reach them in time.
What are we all doing over the weekend in preparation?
Levi is meditating, drawing, doing whatever quiet thing he is doing in the Sanctuary as he prepares for what I am sure will be heavy magical work with his mind. Mind is not a sphere of mine.
I am preparing in a much more mundane way. I am very very carefully collecting Water Hemlock, extracting his juices and concentrating the toxin. I will tweak it with a little Life magic... tho life is the opposite of his tasks. Liquid Death it is. Am I ok with this? No. Is it necessary? I really hope so. I can be steady. I need to be. This is work, not unlike when I am at the hospital, at an event, or in an ambulance. Deep breath, center and ground, stay focused and concentrated. Be it so.
I am not sure what Blythe and Riley and Murder Bot... in their safehouse who knows where.

Riley gets a pherba from some woman. It is to kill the soul of a Nephandi so that it does not reincarnate (or body hop). But first, Riley needs to be be cleansed, purified, blessed... made ritually ready.
