"What a lovely name! And your companion?" She asked.

"Oh, I'm Sharp'i." 

Her face fell. "I see . . . You did look familiar, dear."

"I'm surprised! You were part of the rebellion Kandy?" Louis asked, "Shouldn't you be on their side?"

She scratches the back of her head. "Kinda. The rebellion had good ideals, but how they did it was... wrong."

Lizzie nodded sympathetically. "You've made an admirable choice, my dear."

Sarah opened the door, her face nervous. 

"An inspector has come to you Sir," She told Louis in a low voice.

"Is it inspector Dert again?" Louis asked with a sigh. "Tell her I'm busy with company."

Sarah nodded, pale, and left the room.

"This is one of many reasons I was worried about joining your cause was . . . this."

Lizzie took Kandy's hand. "I'm surprised you don't know. The inspector has been visiting us and other families that employed tributes ever since our dear Maria was taken. Haven't they visited you?"

"No . . ." Sharp'i said, he seemed unsurprised. "My father is-was the type to find ways around that sort of thing, he knew how to keep people away."

Quote

kay so basically good ol Sharp III bribed the government to leave him and his house alone after the rebellion . . . this is why no one in the house called the police to investigate when Sharp III and Sharon were murdered, and why Sharlee knew she could get away with it. They were isolated from the police and the gov't from right after the rebellion took over. Bailing Sharp'i out of jail was also part of this agreement/bribe.

She just sighs. "Of course. It would only make sense. Huh." She turns to Sharp'i and whispers "how much did he drop on that bribe?"

"I don't know, but there was a reason we only had 2 servants and the house was in such disrepair."

Sarah returned. "The inspector is insisting that you see her."

"No . . . if they find you it will definitely get me in trouble. Better pretend your just visiting family, then a claim of suspicious activity will be nothing more than a claim." Louis explained. 

"Let's pretend your a relatives of ours," Lizzie said. She didn't seem nervous at all, rather, more excited than before.

Kandy gives a thumbs up. "Sounds good."

Sarah nodded, and left. Soon, she returned with the new guest.

Inspector Dert was wearing a white uniform, stark against all of the black decorations in the house. She had honey colored hair and a round, pleasant face. Dert appeared to be only a few years older than Sharp'i and Kandy.

"I didn't expect you to be entertaining other guests Louis," She said with a smile, "It's out of character for you."

"I suppose it has been a while . . ." Louis shrugged, "These are relatives of my mother, they came from another district to visit."

"Yeah, we thought we might help out since their maid was drafted for the games."

"Housekeeping, mostly. We were also coming down to help with finding a new servant for them as well."

She tilts her head, "Is that really something they need help with? Honestly you could go get yourself a new maid right now--and you wouldn't have to go get it yourself. They do still have a maid left, y'know."

Dirt chuckled in a good-natured way, "Don't think I'm judging--it's my job to be suspicious."

She settled down on a sofa opposite them without being invited. Sarah offered her some tea, but Dert declined it.

Kandy doesnt skip a beat. "True, but we just wanted to come down and say hi anyways. The hunger games were never fun for anybody!"

"On the contrary, the games bring the nation together." Her smile was all too bright, "And my work get's more interesting."

"Seeing as you two have traveled here, I think I ought to explain why I'm usually here." Dert settled back into the sofa like she was right at home. "The government has decided to send us Inspectors out to keep on eye on families that previously employed tributes, and their real families as well," she sent a glance at Sarah. "The Games brings our nation together, but we worry about the small chance some people might be . . . restless, because of their direct connection to the games. I'm simply here to make sure all is well."

"And it is," Louis said, "As it has been on all of your visits."

"Is it?" She asked with a smirk.
