The woman frisking Val gets more familiar than his last girlfriend... at least he thinks... if he could remember his last girlfriend. By the time she's done, he is quite aware that he has no idea how long since he was last with a woman... only that its been a while. After collecting his pistol she focuses on his remaining asset playfully. "Ohhhhh... I think he has a weapon under there..." she coos before moving on toward Hawk. The girl frisking Ghost is a little less forward and playful, but no less thorough. The first girl gives a faux pout at Hawk's proactive turning over of his weapons. Her followup pat down is quick and deficient around his boots. She then leads the team through the door, further inward. The hallway is tight, rounding a corner and emerging into a large living area. A pair of humans are relaxing on two separate couches. Each of the women proceed inward, each sitting beside one of the men. A large coffee table sits in the room between the duo and the team. The men both appear to be in their early thirties. They are wearing jeans and tactical vests, but no shirts. One is clean shaven while the latter sports a goatee. The latter speak as the trio enter the room. "Gentlemen. What can I do for you?" |

Val Val looks at Hawk and then back to the two males sitting in front of them <Val@Team "so what do we want from these guys?"> Giving him the floor while Val assets the situation if there is one. |

Hawk; PAN=Passive; SIN=Marcum Curst Hawk steps further into the room staying about a meter from the table. He glances at both men taking an opportunity to get a recorded visual image of them with his cyber eyes. Standing up straight, feet shoulder length apart and hand behind the back in at-ease military fashion, Hawk addresses the men... "Thank you sirs for taking the time to see us. We over-heard a conversation tonight that lead us to believe we could acquire specific ammunition from a gentleman by the name Stitch. In particular stick-n-shock rounds and a few Neural Stun grenades if you have them for sale." After finishing the request Hawk slowly reaches a hand to his face and removes his sunglasses Folding them slow and carefully as to not be threatening he tucks one of the sides into his collar hanging down his chest. He returns his hand to behind his back waiting patiently for a reply. Hawk takes this opportunity to focus on the man who didn't talk and 'inspect' him for hidden weapons. <<@Team [Hawk] I think these guys are just dangerous enough to be a threat should be try to bully them. Lets just play this smooth.>> |

Val Val stands there in a static stance not relaxed but not so tense he is going to fart. he turns slightly to his side as to watch the entrance they came in through and the two men sitting down through his perferal vision. I know that stinking trog wants to come up behind me unaware and try to give me a beat down that blade was wykd looking though Val knew the troll really didn't like him and wasn't about to give him the opportunity to. <Val@team"Hawk take it away friend, Seems like you know how to deal with these types better then i do."> Val standing there keeps a static face while listening and standing feeling a little vulnerable without his weapons. God i wish i atleast had my pred in case something goes down |

As Hawk provides some details, the one that spoke visibly frowns. "Overheard?" He looks over to his partner. "Discretion is dead." He turns back to Hawk, sizing the trio up for a moment before speaking again. "In any case, you heard correctly. I have access to limited quantities of both. How many rounds and for what?" Hawk doesn't notice the tell tale budge of weapon on either of the two. |

Ghost Ghost smiles at the women and the two seated men. He then opens his Sight to the astral. |

Hawk; PAN=Passive; SIN=Marcum Curst <<@Team [Hawk] Hey Ghost, not sure what gun you use, but you need any SnS rounds? If so for what weapon?>> Hawk stands there unflinching, neither impressed at the power these two gentlemen hold, nor worried about offending them. Hell these are just two small time weapons dealers. Its not like i haven't been in the presence of more influential people before. "If you have the quantity for sale, thirty rounds of SnS should be enough...lets say for an Ingram model X. As for the neuro-stun grenades, I'll take two." <<@Team [Hawk] Half the SnS rounds are for you Val. With luck we won't even need that many. If luck isn't on our side i suppose the gel's will have to do.>> |

Val Val looks at Hawk speaking and listens to the two men sitting on the couch and they seem a little arogant for just selling small time goods. Val looks towards Hawk "Da, Thirty rounds." <Val@team "that should be enough, I suppose.I just want to get out of here without having to popo that dam troll."> |

As Ghost's sight turns to the astral, the room turns gray except for life emanating from the people in the room. As he takes a few moments to focus on the room, he notices a stain of violence about where they are standing, marring astral space, though not enough to be considered background count. "Thirty rounds for the two of you and a pair of neurostun? Let's call it six-fifty. Certified cred?" The second speaks for the first time, addressing Val. "Do I know you?" |

Hawk; PAN=Passive; SIN=Marcum Curst Hawk holds his composure to the best of his ability despite the feeling of being high-balled here. "That would be thirty rounds total. If we end up needing more than that, we will have done something incredibly wrong." Wanting these two gentleman's attentions totally on him; should the need for his partners to have the benefit of surprise in the near future, Hawk turns to look directly at the newest member to talk... "I was hoping we could start the foundation of a solid long lasting business relationship here. Calling it six-fifty sounds a little cold even for business. If i may counter good sir, I was thinking five-fifty and you get dibs on goods I might acquire in the future." |

Val Val looked at the second man who spoke and wondered if he might have another flash back to show him shooting at him or maybe something to do with his memory loss waiting a few seconds to see if Hawks try to negotiate drive their attention away from him "I don't know. I think thats what were trying to work on now." |

The second guy doesn't reply again, keeping his eyes on Val. The primary however scratches his head. "Thirty rounds and two neuro-stun for five-fifty? I think I could be talked into that." |

Hawk; PAN=Passive; SIN=Marcum Curst Looking at the primary talking dealer, Hawk addresses both men... "Correct, Thirty rounds and Two boomers." Hawk transfers the sum of Five hundred and fifty nuyen to the man who has been talking the most. <<@Team [Hawk] I got this tab guys.>> "Now I don't suppose you have the goods right here do you? If not I'm sure my boys wouldn't mind being escorted by these two beautiful damsels." Hawk finishes the statement gesturing to the two young barely clothed women that searched them on the way in. |

The fund transfer complete, the woman next to the primary gets up and disappears into the back. She returns a moment later with a bundle of pouches. She tosses one to each of the team and hands one around to the others. Pabst Blue Ribbon beer. The primary then speaks up again. "Have a seat. Your delivery will be here in a few minutes." |

Val Val looks at the PBR can and smiles "don't suppose you have any Vodka." His accent rich as he says the drink name with empahsis on the V, He also pops the can open and takes a swig, Never turning his back to the door or the men sitting down on the couch. |

Hawk; PAN=Passive; SIN=Marcum Curst Accepting the alcohol from the woman, Hawk pops the top taking a large swig before relaxing enough to take a seat. "Oh now THAT hit the spot. Thank you for the drink." |

As the trio relax, a trideo projector in the ceiling projects tonight's urban brawl match up between the Knights of the Round Table versus the Kuju Ninja clan. The event is being broadcast from Paris' District 13 and this early on the Knights are already down two player, one of which was flat-lined. Several minutes later, the primary speaker stands and extends his hand. "Gentlemen, your purchase is waiting for you with Iggy." He quickly glances over to the game as one of the ninjas fails to dodge a full spray from a White Knight LMG. "Yea!" |

A short walk back through the apartment and out the door into the hall and the threesome find themselves in the hall with Iggy. The troll is holding the ammunition and grenades. He passes them over to Hawk, glaring at Val as he does so. <<@Team [Val] V'one of these days, I'm gonna chop down a tree.>> The trio proceed out the apartment, back to the pair of bikes unmolested. |

<<@Team [Athena] So, I sleazed my way onto the com of that ganger uploading video. They run a cell based TeamNet. Looks like a pretty new firewall on the upstream cell. Didn't want to test it since I've already had to suppress one alert. Four cameras on the Red-E-Stor, all facing out and all pretty low end. This cell's TeamNet has view only access to the cams, which appear to be slaved to an upstream node.>> The four camera feeds appear on their own team net, each as a scrying window with mist around the edges. <<@Team [Athena] The gate appears to have an actual padlock and the dogs are unaltered.>> |

"Are we ready to resume our night of carousing?" <<@Team [Ghost] Let's get back to robing people for money and glory.>> Laying it on a little thick aren't you? Just keeping it light. You do realize that you are a bit nuts don't ya? Talking to you has made me this way. Killing your friends did that. . . . . . . . . |

Hawk; PAN=Passive; SIN=Marcum Curst Hawk wakes up from his flashback remembering the days back in Chicago before the bomb... <<@Team [Hawk] Getting in the gate isn't a big deal, and the dogs I am sure would drop without a problem. I have no doubt Athena could get us passed the cameras. My only concern right now would be all the people out on the streets. If we are serious about going in we could find a place to park and sneak in from the back side of the lot....(3 second pause)...or we could just go knock over someone else. This guy is definitely marked and on the top of my shit-list. He will get his soon enough.>> Hawk takes a moment to double check he didn't forget anything. He pats himself down making sure he reloaded his personal arsenal. <<@Team [Hawk] Thank you again Athena for all your help this evening. Sorry to have ripped you away from any previous engagements you may have had. Personally I say we focus on the big job tomorrow, but thats just me.>> |

If the Warlords are protecting Stitch and the payment for tomorrows job is 1,000 (IMG:style_emoticons/default/nuyen.gif) each, free medical services and favor with Mad Max, leader of the WarLords... aren't we biting the hand we are trying to get into bed with?>> |
