A Little Deception Never Hurt Anyone

None of this was her scene. At all. But she had a purpose, well two. She had to keep an eye on the infamous Crimson Commander as he represented Shinra and was Master of Ceremonies at the Spring Chocobo Derby, and she had to do her typical line of work for the company besides. There were other turks a part of the, for lack of a better term entourage, five including herself. She was taking point, as ordered for the whole week long celebration with various events which had kicked off with a grand parade, that she was still picking confetti out of her hair from, and between that and the end big event, which was the race there would be fights in the Battle Square, various parties and the qualifying races.
It wasn't that she disliked Genesis, she had started to consider him a friend, but they were, in quite a few ways opposites. She preferred the shadows and he, the limelight. Which honestly did make him perfect for this.
Of course, Shinra was sparing no expense for their part of the show. They had sequestered the fanciest suite of the best hotel at The Gold Saucer, and luckily two separate bedrooms (thank the Life Stream because she's read THAT trope in books). The rooms on either side of the suite would be the accommodations for the other parts of Rhaposdos's security detail. Natasha herself had been given two sets of strict instructions, to keep an eye on the SOLDIER First Class, and to do some investigating into a reliable source's intel that someone had made a deal to transfer large amounts of profits to Wutai to help fund their opposition.
Once she had searched the suite from top to bottom, and placed security devices of her own in strategic locations, she gestured for the bellhops to bring in everything and gave the go ahead to the other turks to get settled in their rooms.
For reasons, obvious to Natasha herself at least, she carried her own bags in and took the smaller of the two rooms, closing the door behind her to check over the gear she had, before unpacking other things. First, she'd run some reconnaissance, get a lay of the land so to speak, and then she'd go from there.
It was nothing for a turk to be patrolling during big events, so she didn't have to alter her appearance or attire for now, but she came prepared anyways.
Satisfied with the state of things for now in her room and the suite over all, well the other room was Genesis's business and he could do as he pleased, Natasha wandered out to the sitting area and moved towards the door.
"I'm going out, try to behave. I'll be back later."
And after informing the other turks in his detail she was leaving the hotel, she seemingly disappeared and did not return until the sun had disappeared beneath the horizon, which was just in time to escort her flamboyant charge to the opening gala.
