The hot sun of the desert planet beat down on the back of the Dark Keyblader's neck, causing mild discomfort and possibly the chance of getting a sunburn if he didn't find some shade.
Ah Agrabah, what a horridly sandy and hot place that Aeron could call his homeworld.
The Dark one remained unnoticed as he trudged the repaired streets of the city, passing off as just another person walking around. Anywhere else his light colored and general design of his clothing would really cause the mage to stand out, but here he was one of many.
Almost a nobody.
The blond man shifted his weight from one foot to the other as his golden gaze swept across the market, looking for someone or something to reveal itself to him... Or possibly for a way to revel himself to another?

Mentioned "somebody" was way above Aeron's head. He'd been tracking the mage for some time now, surprised that he hadn't been noticed. The Informant's hazel eyes gazed down at the blond haired Keyblader. He knew Aeron by appearance, for even if the other wasn't aware of it, they'd passed each other many times in the past.
Funny thing.
Figaro had left Lukas in an old abandoned home, the Heartless securely tied to a table leg. And he would stay there until the redhead returned for him.. probably with some treat.
A pale coloured cloak was pulled over said hair, half masking the young face. From his perch, he shimmied along the rooftop until he found a suitable route down into the streets. His boots hit the dusty ground, the dust swirling for a moment before it settled again and then he made his way towards Aeron.

Had he been noticed? It was hard to tell why Aeron did or did not do things sometimes... It was all part of some master plan up in his head though, and any unforeseen events he had not expected where tallied in and the plan changed according to it.
The man stood still, his eyes open yet unfocused. Instead of relying on easily fooled sight, he was reaching out to 'feel' those around him. A normal Human would notice nothing, but those magic-sensitive might get a shiver down their spine. Another few moments past, and then the blond man blinked, focus changing toward a 'different' presence that was currently approaching him.
Right on time, he had expected no less. When information was what you needed and couldn't be obtained through normal means, you found someone with unique and unexpected ones. Exactly why this informant had be contacted.

Figaro did not rush. He didn't feel the need. He wasn't the one who needed information, but rather was the one who handed it out... for a price of course.
As the Informant approached, a small telltale smile pulled the corners of his lips, so Aeron had finally noticed him. Smart lad~! After a moment, he pulled back the hood as he continued towards the mage, stopping short of 5 feet away, the mohagany hair winking healthily in the sunlight, hazel eyes looking at nothing but Aeron, yet away of everything around him. Overall, he appeared to be quite young, however, that brain possessed information beyond his years.
"Aeron. I'm surprised you didn't notice me earlier." the boy chimed as if they'd been friends for a long time.

"You hide well."
Wether it was a compliment, scrasam, or something else... Remained unknown. The mage's blank tone did allow for a lot of guessing, as always. He didn't change much from person to person, now did he? A soft smile played on his lips, something that seemed to happen more often than usual as of late. He wasn't all stoic and Grumpy... somoe of the time, anyway.
"I assume then, you know where I can find the fish I'm chasing after." It was him that move froward this time, closing the space as if the two where gossiping of some private affair, or of two merchants haggling. It was about that, anyway... But it was already known that Aeron could pay the price asked.
The nice, healthy, incentive money had assured to that.

The Informant nodded. He'd take anything as a compliment even if someone called his a garbage rat.. he found a lot of info in the garbage~!
He let the mage advance, though he watched every step the other made. "I have to admit, he was a slippery fish~" he chuckled. "You know my price, so I'll cut to the chase." he said simply. "Whether you're up-to-date on the reports within the castle or not, that's not my business, however," he paused, "A certain shark when after your fish, a dolphin intercepting."
He kept the analogy going for kicks.

The part on the shark was lost upon him, though it could be easily read as one of the Dark Ones... Sharks, after all, where considered 'evil' by many. 'Dolphins' being good. So basically, his target was presued and then lost to that of good. Easy ehough.
He would have to figure out who exactly the shark was later, thought he had a suspicion it had something to do with Kaix's information of Malificant in the lab. She would be the only one to send someone after the traitor Dark Keyblader, after all.
An eyebrow raised just slightly as he spoke, continuing said analogy that was only slightly out-of -place in the hot hot desert. "And do we know in which cove this dolphin took it's meal into?"
The more information, of course, meant more pay.

"Of course~" Figaro chimed with a smile. His smile was remarkable, sly in every form of the word. He tilted his head to the left and then turned and began walking. He wasn't about to divulge such private information where others might be listening.
The alleyway which he entered was shaded. Even Figaro couldn't sit out in the sun all day. He glanced back to make sure the Dark One was coming. He didn't want to lose the client and miss the pay which he'd already earned.
The redhead went a ways down the alley until he could see no one in either direction where he stopped and leaned his back against the wall. "So you want to know which puddle your fish fell in..."
He was calm and patient for the moment, his tone calm, professional. However, the man stood straighter when a small shadow Heartless came running down the street a leash dragging in his wake. "LUKAS!" Figaro quipped promptly stomping on the end of the leash as it wizzed by.

Golden eyes tracked the other's movment, allowing him to get a few feet ahead before taking up to follow him. Aeron's strides where unhurried, confident. He had all the time in this world, it seemed, or so the front he was putting up said. But really, he was ready to get his hands on that little tratior... And possibly cause some damage to the Rebellion, while he was at it.
The Dark Keyblader entered the alleyway and halted, only feet in front of the leashed Shadow Heartless as Figaro stomped on it's bindings and caught it. He tilted his head down to watch, half amused. That wasn't something you saw everyday.
Nor was the next sight, of another small black streak chasing after it. "Come Baaack, I wanna play~!" Aeron rolled his eyes at the reconizable voice, but made no comment until his smallest summon bounded into view and skittered to a stop, sniffing the Heartless. "You never learn, Jia..."

At his "master's" voice, the small Heartless gave up his pointless fleeing to claw up Figaro's leg. GAH~! It drew a frustrated cry fromt he redhead's lips as he tried to shake Lukas off of him, finally succeeding. Gripping the end of the leash, he dropped a heart shaped cookie for the heartless, who was quite content to nibble it while the feline inspected him.
Figaro was unconcered about Jia, as he had also seen her many a time.
Instead he redirected his attention to Aeron with a slightly embarassed smile. "Sorry about that, he musta gotten out. Anyways," His manner changed again, his voice lowering, hazel eyes flickering about to look for any listeners.
"The last I heard, you fish was to face trial in The Land of Dragons," the young man gave himself a nod. His information was rarely wrong. In fact, he'd only been wrong once in his life... and it had had devistating results, so since then he tended to validate his information before relaying it.

Land of the Dragons, One of the few Places that where outright and direct with their alligeance to the Rebellion. It suprised him not that they would have a Headquarters there... But he expected them to have at least a few more. Destiny Islands had been one until They had been able to get ahold of it. Aeron nodded slowly, musing over this information as a plan that had been half-formed in his mind for some time now bloomed into a full-fledged method of attack.
A slow smile crossed the Blond's face, and it wasn't a nice one. "Very well then, I know where to take the boat for fishing now." He said, his gaze that had been directed at the ground and the two animals now lifting to meet The Informant's.
Jia, on the other hand, did not seemed so concern with the information. The Heartless with the cookie was much more intresting... Hey! She wanted a cookie too~! Taking a few steps closer, the feline reached out with her front paw and batted at Lukas, claws sheathed. "Shaaaaare~!"

Figaro let an easy smile cross his lips. Like a business man who'd just signed off a big deal. If they moved Riou between now and the time of Aeron's planned strike, well, Figaro couldn't be held accountable for that.
Lukas' small yellow eyes stared at the cat as it popped the remainder of the cookie into its mouth, the pastry vanishing. It seemed almost smug in it's manner of taunting the cat, but when she pawed at him, he lunged, scratching and biting and had it not been for Figaro's grip on the leash, Jia might have suffered some damage.
However, a sharp jerk on the leash got control of the Heartless. The redhead nodded simply at the Dark One. "should you survive the attack, I'll collect my payment afterwards." It didn't appear that if Aeron died that it would be a great loss. At least the Informant would have fun watching...As he planned to watch this planned infiltration very, very closely.

Jia yowled in surprise as the Heartless attacked her hopping backward and out of it's reach, fur and tail standing up as she hissed angrily before fleeing toward her Summoner. "Aerrrooon!"
"Hush, its your fault." The Dark One told the animal as it tried to claw up his pants leg, picking her up before placing the feline on his shoulder that she often perched on. The cat meowed unhappily, but he ignored her, which would probably be the cause of a cold shoulder from the animal later.
"I plan to use your services for a long time to come." A smug, bold statement? Or truth? You never knew, really, but he was confident in his own power... it was just everyone else you had to worry about.
With a nod to the other, no more words where wasted as Aeron turned away, walking into a summoned dark portal and disappearing from Agrabah.

Figaro smiled again at the Dark Keyblader's statement. Well, at any rate, in that case, they'd be in touch. He watched the other's back as he vanished into a portal, his feline companion with him.
Only then did he tilt his head to look down at Lukas. "That wasn't very nice, Lukas," he scolded, to which the Heartless paid no mind.
The Informer shook his head before he turned to travel the opposite direction as Aeron, dragging the Heartless at leash-end behind him and vanishing around a corner.
