Vas rubbed his sore legs. He had been standing in the same position for nearly an hour waiting for the thieves to come in and let loose the ambush. He had things already set up. He had set in place the zap connection so the computer systems that he had on his body were already linked with the computer that was in the room. It was a maintenence terminal that collected data and it was unconnected from any Network so the Theives would have to come here to get what they wanted. Now all Vas had to do was sit in the darkest corner of the room and leave the camo function on his Holowear activated and wait. Vas gave a few experimental swings to test the weight of his two new no slip grip handled sledge hammers. The black metal shinned and they swung pretty freely and fluidly. Then a beep went off on Vas' bone phones. The Satelite Radar was allerting him of people aproaching his condition. Vas turned on the inferred scope function on his glasses and looked at the door, faint, fuzzy red forms were possitioning themselves outside. "That's right you idiots, come and get some" Vas said softly as he stepped back into the corner, as he sat still he became less and less visible because of the camo function.
The Theives hooked up a few tools to the keycard entry pannel and then in a few moments the door swung open. Silently they closed the door and the three of them stepped into the room. Each of them had a common house knife tied to their leg by a sock for protection. Foolish and sloppy Vas thought as he took note that the knives werrent even concealed. Two of them took up guard around the thrid man who sat at the terminal and began to plug a few commands in. Then the Theif hooked up a portable memory storage device and began to download mass amounts of data. Then he started to look for specific sections of Data. The other two who were trying to guard got bored and turned to the console, "Everything Alright" one asked.
the one at the console spoke next "Yeah, I am just trying to find the package that he wanted."
This is all a hoax Vas thought They arent after mass data, they are trying to find a specific one, they are just downlaoding a lot to throw us off.. clever. Vas tapped a finger to a specific key on his micro computer and the maintenence terminal went blank as Vas' program took effect. Vas' voice projected over the small speakers inside the terminal "Who are you working for?" It asked.
The three became startled. "They've found us out" the leader said almost cursing. Vas stepped from the shadows and kicked the door shut.
The three thieves pulled their knives out and searched for the disturbance of a moving Vas. Vas pressed another button and the camo shut off. Then from the folds of his projected blue cloak Vas pulled the two sledge hammers.
"No witnesses guys" one of the theives lunged forward with the knife. Vas spun striking upward blow hitting the Theif in his knife hand. the dagger flew out of the thiefs hand clattered against the wall and then to the floor. then Vas struck out with his second hammer and punched the head of the hammer into the man's stomach. The theif recoiled but the other two stepped in. Vas swung strongly with both hammers out catching both charging theives in the ribs and heard a sickening crack. The other two theives dropped their knives and huddled on the floor in pain.
Vas grabbed the first Theif by the colar dropping the sledge hammers and took off the theif's mask. "I Said. Who do you work for?"

"As If I'd know.. I am clinging to the bottom rung of his ladder. I cant even see the butt of the guy above me." The Theif Replied through clenched teeth. The other two moaned on the ground. Vas tried again. He let go of the man's collar with his right hand and lifted one of the sledge hammers ready to knock the man out. "Lets ask a different question then... Where do you get your orders?" "I show up at a local bar and sit down at a specific table and the orders are under my seat.. Listen I got this Job because I don't ask Questions." The theif pleaded whincing as Vas raised the hammer. Vas could tell the man was telling the truth. "how did you know which seat to sit at?" "They told me where to sit." The theif started to break down. "how did you contact them?" Vas continued to press as he let his burly hand slip up to the man's throat. "It was a Talk Box directive, In an ad in the newspaper. They promised a large summ of hard cash." "What was the name of the Talk Box?" Vas began to haul the man to the corner of the room. "Talk Box Big Money..." "Command, Search for Talk Box directive, Big Money" Vas barked to his minicomputer systems. "that Talk Box is no longer in service" replied the computer through Vas' bone phones. "It is no longer in service." he told the theif and hauled the man to his feet. "Which is a good thing because it means that it once existed. Now tell me, why did you go through with it, you knew it was illegal?" "I needed the money for my daughter, she suffers from a rare genetic disorder which makes her break out in a rash in sunlight. There is a medication and a bit of therapy available to help her but I don't have the neccisary money or credits, and nothing to barter with either." the man was close to tears. "She wants to be a zeppelin pilot some day but they are alwase in the sun." Vas was now disgusted at the sob story this man was giving him to make him feel guilty but again Vas just knew the man wasn't lying. "well, there are church charities you know." Vas said. "Access Talk Box, Mindi Kodan," "Mindi Here" the Leader of the Cyber Chade replied. "I have them. send a few backup, there are three, they should have posted one more on the outside of the door for lookout but they are sloppy. two probably are going to need some medical attention and an excuse for when they go back to their happy little lives." Vas said. "You mean you aren't going to turn me in?" Asked the theif. "So long as you remember that this night never happened." Vas said to the theif. "What" asked Mindi. "Sorry Min, I was just talking to one of the Theives." Vas replied. "Leave the other two where they are I'll send Jock to patch them up, Take the one you have for a walk, maybe the fresh air will do him good. Talk Box out." Mindi Replied. Vas let go of the would be theif and collected the three knives up from the floor. "So am I free to go?" Questioned the theif. "What's your name?" Vas countered. "Thomas Osgood." The theif replied shakely. "And yours?" Tom managed to ask. "My Name is of no consequence to you, but you may call me Merciful. Let us take a walk Thomas." Vas opened the door and stowed his two sledgehammers in their holster on his back where they were concealed by the holographic cloak. Vas stepped out into the open air and took a refreshing breath. It was nice being out of the stuffy room. * * * Thomas tried to keep up with Vas' brisk pace down the street, it was late at night, when Vas checked the time found that it was 11:30. Vas kept questioning the Theif on a few minor details such as where he was going to get the money. But the answers Vas got led prety much nowhere.

When Vas finally came to a stop he was standing outside a Techno diner, "What was the name of the cafe you got orders from?" Vas asked.
"It's the one just down the way" Tom pointed to it.
"We'll go their later." Vas said as he looked at the sign over the cafe. "Arnolds Food Stop?" Vas laughed "Pretty non descrip cafe.. wise choice for them." Vas stepped into the Techno Diner and Tom followed suit.
Once they were seated Vas ordered two non-alchoholic beverages, two rasburry-apple crisps, and a double order of smuthered chicken and fried squash. "That should hold us." Vas told Tom as he switched from menu mode to net mode on the holo screen. Vas began a search for something on the nets and sat back for a moment or two while the best matches were returned.
"What are you looking for?" Tom asked shakily.
"A nice Charity to help your daughter. There are plenty of them out there." Vas said quickly.
Minutes later Vas had found three all in the local area which would help out in medical matters. Vas transfered them to the display on Tom's holo pat. "Here are a few. And they are all in town." Tom began to look at the charities and a smile tugged at his lips.
"You really are Merciful." Tom stated.
"Yes I am." Vas said quietly. The food arrived and it smelled wonderful. Vas immediately plunged his fork into the rasbury apple crisp, paused, said a little grace, then ate a large bite from the fork. Vas looked arround and saw a few other people in the diner each one enjoying their own meal or talking with friends and waiting for a meal. Vas was glad that he and tom didn't stand out too badly.

Melodrina Sabriel was walking in an alley, she knew she was being followed but she tend to ignore the men. They only want one thing and they sure aren’t going to get it from herself. She heard another man whistle and she raised her eyebrows, at him telling him if he dared. She walked with a brisk pace which is kind of hard in two inch heeled black boots. She gently swayed her hips in her tight low-rise jeans that caused the men to go insane. Today she was wearing a white shirt, on one side the shirt has a tank top strap on the other side where she keeps her dagger hidden is long sleeved. She also has her bracelet on. Her necklace dangled around her neck. She had her sword just inside her pants; it’s a trick she learned from her mother. She ran her hands through her hair and sighed, the guys were starting to ignore her. Finally she knew that if they didn’t leave her alone they must face the consequence of following her. That was until she came to a café that raised her eyebrows as she read the words aloud, “Arnolds Food Stop.”
Can’t they come up with a different title something more exciting then that. Guess Arnold couldn’t pull it off. She sighed and she opened the door and she realized the men started to back off, interesting. Something must be going on and it didn’t involve her, at least not yet. She walked in and looked around the café realizing that barely anyone was in there, she did notice two men eating they both were deep in thoughts. She saw a booth behind them that looked perfect for herself and it was close enough to the door and closes enough to the window. She hoped that Micheal would remember and try to find her tonight. They needed to talk.
As she was sitting there the waitress came up and Melodrina ordered her meal, a soda that had no alcoholic in it. Normally she would have had alcoholic but that life was gone since she put herself on a mission. She then ordered a spicy chicken sandwich and fries, why not indulge. She pulled out her sword and looked at it. She smiled in spite of it, it was her prized object, and she gently started to buff it up as the waitress went to get her food.

Vas came to a moment later and remembered why he was taking this man around town in the first place. Vas spoke softly "Hows your hand?" he asked casually.
Tom rubbed his hand a little and noticed a small bruise where Vas had hit him with the sledgehammer. "It'll be alright in a few." Tom trailed off. Vas slipped his chit card through the payment slot, recorded the money transfer in his computer and stood up. "Where we going?" Tom asked.
Vas quickly replied. "We are going to Arnolds, I like the food here better but we still have buisness at the other cafe." Vas grabbed a two doggy boxes and packed up what was left of the two meals. Tom followed as Vas moved out of the door.
Moments later Vas and Tom were opening the door to Arnolds food stop. They stood there for a moment before the waitres came up and tried to take orders. Vas gave her a stern look and whispered closer to her ear, "We have other buisness..." the waitress looked around then nodded and left. There were few others in the old cafe, a couple of people who were dressed in extravigant apparrel who looked to be meditating over a few shots of whisky, and a raven haired lady sitting in one of the far corner seats by the large window. Vas didn't pay much attention to the other people in the establishment. "Which booth was it?" Vas asked leaning in close to Tom. Tom pointed to the booth just adjacent from the one with the Lady. Vas and Tom made their way to the booth and sat down. Vas took out the food and began to eat again. "Was it under my seat or was it under your seat?" Vas asked calmly.
"Under the one you're sitting at." Tom replied rubbing his head a little.
Vas nodded, "Thank you." He passed over a little disk. "This is the info from the techno diner about the charity programs. You may go."
Tom looked hesitantly around and took the disk but he didn't leave. "Listen, I'd like to help if there is anything else I can do?"
Vas sighed. "Verry well. you may stay." Vas looked arround on the table for a moment but didn't find any salt. He looked over at the other tables. The salt shaker on the table behind Vas was empty. Good old service he thought. Vas looked over at the woman for a moment then noticed the sword then thingamabobed an eyebrow and spoke up. "Excuse me miss, could you please hand me the salt shaker. Ours has turned up missing."

Melodrina noticed to men walking into the café she always checked around her even though she pretends she doesn’t notice thing. That’s why she chooses the booth she was in she has a clear view of the door if she looks just right in the window. Melly learned to never underestimate people in her surrounding. She watched as they converse with the waitress she decided to watch them. One of them seemed to be nervous about something the other acted like this was business same old same old. She watched as they walked over to the table near her. She then looked at her sword and tipped it up just slightly where she can still pretend she didn’t notice them but she watched them in her sword. She then saw that they begun talk again but she noticed that one who was nervous when they entered was getting really nervous now, she wouldn’t be surprise to see that he was sweating all over the place. She smiled her sweet smile that men always tell her that it drives them insane. She lightly started to wipe her sword again and she slides her sword back into her jeans as she noticed her waitress was coming with her order. But before her food reached her, she heard a voice she glanced over to where the voice was coming from. She heard his question and she raised her eyebrow then said, “Of course. I don’t think I will need it so yeah go ahead.” She then handed him the salt shaker with a firm grip.

Vas gingerly leaned over and took the salt shaker from the woman. "That is quite a peice of metal you got there." Vas stated, indicating the sword. "Looks like an heirloom. But I see you take good care of it..." Vas trailed off and returned to his food.
Vas looked at Tom. "Well let's hope that your affiliates were more careless in covering their tracks then you were shall we." Vas said as he pulled out a small blue light. Vas got up out of his seat bent down and looked under the seat shining the light. "Aha we are in luck. Fingerprints. Hopefully one of them, not on this wad of gum, belongs to the guy on the rung above you."

Melodrina smiled at the man and noticed that he was doing something really odd, but before she got to ask him what he was doing she heard the bell ring out in the café; she glanced at the door and saw that Micheal has finally arrived. Melly glanced at Micheal’s clothes he was wearing baggy black jeans with a tight black shirt. He also had shades on which never makes since to Melly. He noticed Melly and he walked up to her, “Hey Mel, why do you have that visible.” “I have it visible because I can. Micheal I am not a child.” “Mel, you are still showing it off and it could always cause trouble,” Micheal glanced at the table next to them and he noticed they were doing something weird and suspicious in his eyes. He casually nodded his head towards the table to Melly, “See what I mean. Did you even think of who was sitting next to you?” “Micheal, chill out. They are not doing any harm to me or to you, he asked for the salt maker earlier and I thought it was no problem. He seems to know his weapons.” “HE WHAT!” “Micheal, don’t cause a scene.”

Vas looked up at the man who was speaking a bit loudly. The couple of extravigantly clothed drunks began to stir. Vas took one more look at them just to be sure they were infact drunk and concluded that they were. Then Vas turned his attention to the man who was standing up nearby. "Yes Micheal Please take a seat across from your lady so you won't distrub the drunks down their any longer. I will only be down here for a few more moments.. I am collecting prints.." Vas said unconcerned with the reprecussions. Vas scanned a few of the prints with the blue light and it took digital images of them.
"There we go.." Vas said and stood up.

Micheal looked at the man then closed his eyes in slits like a snake, then said in a deep voice, “What are you doing anyway…mister…how do I know your not doing something illegal.”
Melly closed her eyes and started to mutter, “And yet he didn’t want me to draw attention to myself…what a hypocrite.” She looked at the man as he stood up, Melly stood up then produced her hand to him, “Sorry, for him he is a bit daft at times. But, I am sad to tell you, I am not his lady until he learns to grow up.”
Micheal looked at Melody then he grabbed her hand away before the man could even get the chance to shake her head, what are you doing?”
“I am being polite Micheal, this is what grown-ups do at times,” Melody was getting angry and she had her father’s temper to match she took her hand away from Micheal and produced it to the total stranger, “My name is Melly, it’s nice to meet you.”

Vas cringed inwardly, he really didn't want to voice his name. It was in the news all over when he uncovered the plot to blow up one of the towers. Vas took her hand and shook it. "Well met Melly. I would tell you my name under other circumstances, maybe, but in the current situation, doing sensitive work like I am, you will just have to call me Merciful." Vas turned to Micheal. "As for you sir. I would take some advice from this young woman. As I can assure you I am doing nothing Illegal except for being a slight vigilanty in tracking down a verry vicious blackmailer." Again Vas spoke without reguard to the possible consequenses of this information. "But then again If you want me to do something Illegal I should have no problem thinking up an Illegal act to do." Vas reached up and pulled one of his hammers out from behind his back and held it in a verry unthreatining way..
The drunks stirred again... "For example, I could possibly smash your head in if you decide to remember this incident and this conversation at an inopportune time or in front of inopportune people. or I could simply erase all records about your existence from the net, forever banishing your Identity to the V.O.I.D." Vas holstered the weapon again. "But please tell me you won't remember this conversation. Smashing in brains is a truly bloody and messy act and I would so like to avoid it if at all possible. If at all possible I would rather have people as my friends and not as my enemies." Vas finished his speach with a slight accent that bespoke of far off countries.
One of the drunks blinked a few times to get their bearings, took another shot of whisky, rolled sideways and lay limp against the wall of the booth.

Micheal glared at the guy, named Merciful; but he didn’t dare say a word. How dare he try and control Melly like he is now, how dare he even try to control him. Micheal was angry and he knew it was because Melly wouldn’t admit that she was his girl. Only his girl. He sat back down the booth and pretty much started to pout.
Melly looked at the guy and smiled then said, “It’s nice to meet you Merciful. Sorry, about Micheal he can be a bit pigheaded at times but he does come in handy to keep guys at bay.” Melody looked at his hammer with a keen interest she then pulled out her sword and looked at it then at the hammer. She then put her sword back into her jeans and she smiled, “Nice weapons you have there, I can tell they have been used often. But, I won’t ask where or how, and I hope you will do the same.”
She looked at Micheal who was not a happy camper for being put in his place, she will have to tell him that she is a big girl. But she won’t admit that something about Micheal has been bothering her. Lately he has been telling her to just give up the search, something about him trying to pressure her in marriage. Melly won’t be getting married anytime soon until after she has avenged her father’s death. That takes her life until she finishes it. She then decided to ask Merciful a question that has been bugging her, “I have a question to ask of you, Merciful. I was wondering if you have heard of a group of men going on a killer spree of a certain family of sorts. If you have can you tell me where, you have last heard of them.” Melly bit her bottom lip in hopes that he would have some kind of answer for her.

Vas was pleased that this young lady new etiquite of weaponry. Vas was also pleased that he wouldn't have to elaborate on the threat he was beginning to make. She would do well as a Maurauder Vas thought for a moment untill Melly's question jogged Vas.. Killing Spree? Vas sat down and thingamabobed an eyebrow he reached up with both hands and pressed two buttons on the blue plastic devices that were resting on his shoulders. Two little devices that looked like mini kechain flashlights came off of the holowearables. Then several holographic screens appeared before Vas. Vas removed his sunglasses and motioned for a moment of peace.
Tom was now wishing that he had left, he didn't feel at all up for any sort of confrentation. Tom stood "I't is really late... I think I will go home now. Good luck and if you need me to try to remember anything you can reach me at..." Vas cut him off.
"I have your name and a picture of you on file, that is all I need to find you.." Vas said quickly and motioned for Tom to go. Tom walked between Vas and Michael, by the drunks and after looking back for a moment out the door.
Vas went through several motions using the two kechain light looking devices to load the fingerprints into the computer and sent them off to the Cyber Chade. then he began a search for killing sprees. Vas made a funny face in concentration... "Hmm do you have any other information, like who's family is being hunted or the manner in which these spreers are killing?" Vas asked calmly as six hundred and twelve results appeared on the screen.

Melly looked the device he had and raised her eyebrows, she never saw something like that. She nearly jumped out of her skin when she realized she forgot that the other man was there. She just broke Rule number one in her mother’s book never forget the people around you. Melly watched as Vas spoke with the man then she saw that he was looking at the device again. She looked at him hoping he may have some answers for her. She listened to his question and she closed her eyes and tried to image the leader of the group coming into her house and watched the whole scene unfold in front of her. She looked at Merciful and then said, “Yes, I do have a little more information. The family is the Sabriel family; the group have been killing off the men in the family. They have yet to touch the wives of the men, and only kill their sons. All I know is that they think of the family as a threat but they don’t believe that the women could be a threat to the family. It goes way back but…”
Micheal was through listening to Melly try to explain about her family without mentioning that she was part of the Sabriel family. He knew she was giving way too much away and he could be a part of the group, he decided to interrupt her, “Mel…”
Melly raised her eyebrow at Micheal then she finished her sentence, “They weren’t dangerous before more then ten years ago. Something happened, that is all I know. So far as I have gathered was that the group was somewhere her in the Americas, but I have yet to find them. I’ll know the group when I see them. But, I have no clue what they name their group, all I do know is that their leader kind of looks like but I haven’t seen him in over thirteen years ago. So I don’t know how much that will help.”
OOC: Sorry about that Vas..but Melly has no clue what they name their group yet. She will come across it sometime, but it still doesn't have a name. I hope I fixed it up a little bit so you can understand it.

OOC: Question.. it was probably a simple mistake, how were "they" not dangerous before ten years ago, yet your father was killed 13 years ago? and could you clarify "They"?
IC:at the name Sabriel Vas froze.. Why does that name sound so familiar. Vas thought for a moment, he began to imput the name into the holo computer but then he stopped and realized something The abandoned cases. Oh man.... Vas placed the two hand devices back into the holowearables and shut the projectors off. Rubbing his eyes Vas said.. "Sabriel you say... I remember seeing a case of Sabriel killings, Started over 15 years ago. The Taizers looked for the families killers for what, days, weeks at best, but then they gave up and got scared when two of their troops got slaughtered."
Vas paused and looked into melly's eyes and continued "Gruesom case it was, the two troopers were mutilated worse then the Sabriel men. Guts slit open and all the organs pulled out, placed in jars besides the bodies. But by my view the killers of the Taizers and the killer of the Sabriels may have not been the same. Still, the people who were targeting the Sabriels never got caught." Vas face went grim.. "I don't know all that much about it myself. Even I can't reach that information. But I do know someone who might be able to help you out.. an old friend of mine."
Vas looked around for a moment, double checking once again that the drunks were who they appeared to be. Then he turned back to Melly "Why are you so interested in a case that started so long ago and has since been forgotten by most?" Vas questioned.

OOC: I hope I fixed so you can understand it the one before mine.
ICC: Melly looked at the man as she heard about the troops. She did hear about the troops from her Uncle on her father’s side but it was shortly before he past away and she was only ten when he told her about it. She knew that the Taizers gave up trying to cover the cases of her family members. Melly took a deep breath as she thought breathe in breathe out. She knew her temper was flaring but when he said that she he had a friend of his that she could talk to she looked at him with wide eyes.
Micheal couldn’t take it, Melly was going to go in the trap that has killed almost every person in her family. He knew that when the man mention that he has an old friend of his that could give her more that he had to step in, but then again Melly glared at him daring if he said a word he could kiss her booty goodbye.
Melly looked at Micheal knowing he will say something that will ruin her chance to ever find her father’s killer. She then looked at Merciful when he asked her why she was interested her eyes went wide again but she sighed then looked at the ground then back into Merciful’s eyes. Then she said in a very clear voice, “Because, the killings are still going on, the Sabriels have yet to have a moment peace most of the families have been on the run most of their lives. They are also scared to produce children in hopes that they won’t have a son. I have also seen my father being murdered by the leader when I was a little girl. I am a Sabriel.”

Vas looked up a moment into her eyes. one more peice falls into place. She is a Sabriel, this is why she wan't to know more about the case. She is a... well... she, so she dosent think that the "group" will come after her.. the thought continued till it finally landed on revenge.
*Beep*... do you accept the invite to Martyred Sage's Talk Box.. Vas' bone Phones chimed into his skull at an inopportune time. Vas sighed and spoke to the two of them. "One moment, I have just gotten a Talk Box Invite.." Vas said irratably. "command: accept invite"
Patching in... "Hey Vanir I have results for the prints you just sent me. most of them don't look like they would be into this buisness, two of them..."
Vas cut him off, "Yes yes just upload the results to my cromp and tag the ones that look suspicious. I'll look at it when I get back home. I am kind of busy right now."
"Ok mister snippy."
"Do you Know how late it is here?"
"three before midnight?"
Vas grumbled and rubbed between his eyes.. "And you know how cranky I get when I miss my beauty sleep."
"What are you so busy with?"
Vas paused a moment.. "A really old case came up. Contact Stealth Blue and tell him to dig up the old Sabriel Cases."
"The Sabriel... What the.. Ok.. Talk Box Out."
"Talk Box Out.." Vas looked at the two of them and realized how uncomfortable it is to watch one person talk to another who wasn't anywhere nearby. "Sorry about that.. another old friend of mine. We are working together to catch a vicious blackmailer. As I was saying before he intirruppted, I have a friend who got into the buisness of trying to vigilanty some of the dropped Taizer cases. I think he worked on the Sabriel case once or twice. Maybe the third time is the charm. I can put you in contact with him if you like." Vas said but then added in as and after thought "But then again he dosent trust Technology that much so you would have to meet him face to face, and right now he is operating in Africa." Vas suddenly realized how crazy he must sound.

Melly looked at him waiting for anything he may have for her. When all of sudden she heard someone talking she then watched Merciful talk to the other voice. Melly then realized he ended and he was saying sorry because of it. She then raised in eyebrow of when he talked about his friend when he ended she smiled, she loved to travel so Africa isn’t a problem, the only problem would have to get rid of Micheal one way or another.
Micheal could tell Melly’s wheels were turning. He couldn’t believe the man spoke Melly’s favorite word that is a country. He sighed and placed his head into his hands.
Melly smiled then looked at Merciful with a grin, “Africa is a piece of cake, I love to travel so it wouldn’t be a problem, at all.”

ooc: it is my fault since I havent posted everything in the how things work board but you arent supposed to be able to hear things on other peoples bone phones (unless you are hacking into them..). so just for future reference. "Italicized in quotes is a conversation on talk box" (comeon it even happens today, someone just starts talking to another person on their bluetooth cellphone headpiece.. it is strange to encounter.)
"Well that is good, I am actually headed out that way tommorrow..." Vas checked the clock "well later this morning... There is a ship waiting out on the dock. it is a fairly new fishing barge. I was going to hop a ride on it if you want to join. It will be a 2 day trip." Vas repplied calmly his stomach grumbled a little so Vas turned back to the food. "Now if you will excuse me a moment, think over my proposition, I am going to go sit at another part of the cafe. I must think and eat, and I would prefer a little quiet." Vas rose and moved over beyond the two drunks who now had a smell lingering about them.

Melly heard his offer and she smiled as she watched him go to the other side of the café, in her mind he was doing it for himself but partly so she can think it over inside her head. Melly looked at Micheal and she smiled.
“Mel, you can’t be seriously thinking that his offer is safe for you. I’ll go to take your place; I think that would be the best thing possible. If a man took the place, because you never think clearly where I do,” Micheal was saying trying to explain why she can’t go.
Melly looked at Micheal with wide eyes, He was clearly saying that she was smart enough to not let go who she is and that a man should do it. Melly was sick of having men think that they are in charge of the world. Melly closed her eyes as she remembered her father’s words come to her the night that he was killed, “Mel, my darling. I am so glad you were born a girl. You have so much strength at even this age, I believe that you will be the one who brings justice to our families since us men have yet to achieve it. I believe in you my darling sweetheart. Keep your head held no matter what and let no man destroys your strength because he isn’t worth it.” Melly opened her eyes and looked at Micheal then said in her this is my final answer, “I am going.”

Vas cranked up a little music from his computer into his bone phones.. mmm quiet... he mused to himself. Vas poked at his food for a few moments, he really was in more of a mood for deserts then for anything else.. but regardless, he finished his food quickly.
As he ate he went over a checklist of things he was supposed to do on this trip. figure one of the next three terminals to be hacked. done. apprehend one. done. interrogate. done. get any remaining evidence. done. send the other possible locations of attack to Johnson for remote followup... will do.. set up a contact in the area.. Tom counts.. done..... what else was there.. I know there was something.... Candy and fruit... ooh.. this late.. well the cafe is open. maybe there is a 24 hr grocery store..
Vas rubbed his forehead and finished the last few bites of his food then stood and turned 6th level Enigmas off. silence unbroken pervaded Vas's mind for a few moments. after normal sounds of the fans and the dishwasher whirring mechanically returned to Vas' ears he turned to the two young people and spoke up. "I have had my moment of peace. Unfortunately something has come to my attention and I realize my buisness here in the Americas is not yet complete. I shouldn't be to long with my task. Do you wish to accompany me or do you wish to wait for me at the docks?" Vas asked matter of factly.

Melly decided to finish her meal but since it was cold she sighed. She looked at Micheal and raised her eyebrow and the only other device she got from him was one in return. She rolled her eyes in the best teenager way then finished her meal. She noticed that Vas was walking up to them and she looked up at him to get the silence away from her quickly. Melly raised her eyebrows again then said back to Vas, “I would love to accompany you, but it will just be me since Micheal has some other business to tend to. Don’t you Micheal?” Micheal glared at Melly but when he received a glare back he knew she was speaking that he had no choice but to leave her to the other man disposal. He would defiantly have to talk to his boss about someone to keep their eyes on her. She was one slick kind of girl, too bad Micheal would most likely have to do something that he really wishes he didn’t since he was falling hard for her.
OOC: Sorry...getting ready for writing my novel in November..hehe..keep on me..

Vas made a gesture that was half bow and half nod towards Micheal. "Well then Michael, I will let you attend to your buisness. And do not worry. You look like you could use some anxiety pills for goodness sakes." Vas mused in a calm manner, "Miss Sabriel will be returned to you shortly and all in one peice with every hair in place."
Without even giving chance of uttering a smart remark or a threat such as She better or else.... Vas turned and moved swiftly to the door.. I hope the stores haven't closed yet. or else gunther will have my ear.. Vas thought to himself as he waited for Melly to catch up outside of the Cafe.
Vas looked around, the street was sparsly populated this late at night. A few teenagers drove past in their fancy cars. And other groups of two's and threes were wandering from music stores to merchandize stores laughing and just having a night on the town. Then Vas noticed a few shadowy figures lingering in the darker corners, by the allyways and such.. muggers thought Vas. Vas sighed a little.
As Melly caught up Vas turned to her and spoke in quieted tones. "I am going to assume that you know how to use your weapon and that if we do get.. mugged.. on these streets you can hold your own. It isn't likely that they will attack us since there is two of us but... am I correct in these assumptions?"

Melody smiled and followed Vas out the doors without even saying a goodbye to Micheal. He seems like he needs to cool down, and something about him was just unsettling her in a way that it was driving her insane and she can’t be insane when she has a mission. She watched as a bunch of teenagers drove by in their fancy cars that most likely their parents bought for them. Give them a week and it will be in a wreak no more car but their parents are stupid enough to buy another one. Melody then noticed some shadow characters hiding in the shadows she made sure her blade was easy access she also made sure her dagger was ready to pull. She looked with just a glance of her eyes to Merciful as he asked the question. Melody then raised her eyebrows at him and replied, “No I just carry them for the fun of it, and yes I have been trained with them. I practice every day so don’t worry about my welfare.”

Vas smiled at the smart reply of Melly. "Good, a simple yes would have done just fine." Vas started walking down the road. "Listen, don't tell Michael this but I really only have the ability to protect myself from muggers and petty theives. Anyone with much training would find me an easy target in a fight. So I am glad I have someone with me who has more skill with fighting. However I was not kidding about my ability to erase him from the computer systems, Or atleast the Taizer and other local law enforcement records. While we are on that topic though, and don't make me feel foolish for asking but I have to make sure, You do have a licence for that class of weapon you carry? If you don't then we shall have to forge you one right away. Here in america they are lax with that rule but in Africa as you may know they are very strict about carried weapons?"
