Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1440 - Driving - Heading toward meet with Dr. Martin, Seattle


There is a pause before the man replies. >>I will do my best, but you are paying regardless. This sort of wound is very bad............you understand?<<

The woman in the back is talking softly to Elana, but you cannot make out the words.

"Yes, I am not too far out. Where do you want me to park so we can get her right in?"

[Mercy]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1444 - Dr. Martin's Clinic, Seattle


The doctor gives direction on where to park and has a nurse and two other men waiting when the car stops. They quickly transfer Elana to a gurney and wheel her into the building. Inside, a second nurse points to a couple of chairs in a small room off to the side. The other woman gratefully takes a seat and rests her head against the wall behind her. "My name is Karla, by the way. Thank you for not killing me, too."

"I do what I can, Karla. Johnny. Lets see if we can find you some scrubs or something."

Before searching for the change room, he looks through Elana's things for the commlink she picked up. Once that is found he checks all his weapons and ensures they are fully loaded.

"We should get moving, quick," he tells Karla.

To Dr. Martin's staff he says, "Call Bert. He will take care of the woman." He provides the number to the staff.

Karla looks down at herself then over at you and snickers. "Yeah, like a quick change of clothes is going to do any good. Have you seen yourself, or taken a look at me?" She motions to a mirror on the wall. Looking at it, you see yourself splattered with blood. "But you are probably right about moving on, though. You did not manage to kill everyone there and someone might have called someone else and my guess is that the someone else might be looking for you.....for us. Any ideas?"

[Bastard]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1450 - Dr. Martin's Clinic, Seattle

"You are right," he said to Karla. To one of the staff that wasn't completely occupied he asked, "Do you have locker room where we might grab some scrubs?"

[Mercy]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1450 - Dr. Martin's Clinic, Seattle


The nurse takes a look at you and smiles. "Sure, and a shower, too. You get cleaned up and I will set out some scrubs for you." The nurse shows you both to a bathroom with a large shower. "Sorry, only got the one, but it is big enough that we can have one of the nurses wash a patient if necessary. I will be back in a few with the clothes."

Karla looks at the shower then you and smiles as she begins to remove her clothes, not that she was wearing much in the first place. "Hey, how do you want to work this? I got no problem with you taking a shower with me. After all, you have seen my naked already. Still, if you are modest...................."

She drops her shirt, revealing her braless breasts and bends over to remove her pants.

Johnny is obviously impressed with her physic, but now is not the time for games. The phone Elana had taken could possibly be tracked, though it most likely a burner, and fills Karla in. "We should hurry and get cleaned up, then get the hell out of here. The phone and the car may be traced here, so we must be quick."

[Mercy]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1452 - Dr. Martin's Clinic, Seattle


Karla looks up at you when she is finished stripping. "I get that we are on a time crunch and was not volunteering to have sex with you in the shower, but we can relook that idea later if you are interested. I was just stating that we could both use the water and get it done quicker. Your choice." She steps over to the shower and turns the water on, letting it get nice and hot before stepping in.

[Bastard]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1452 - Dr. Martin's Clinic, Seattle

Johnny nods in agreement, and joins her in the shower, leaving his Savalette within arms reach. He quickly soaps up and rinses off getting mostly clean. He quickly dries off and starts dressing in the scrubs the nurse has provided. His once styled hair is left a mess, somewhat organized by his fingers.

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1459 - Dr. Martin's Clinic, Seattle


Karla takes just a little bit longer to clean herself, but it out of the shower and drying herself before you are finished. She puts her hair in a pony tail and dresses quickly. Once in the scrubs, she pulls at the top and laughs. "Not really stylish, but certainly better than dead." She looks up at you. "Thank you again for saving my life. So, what do we do now?"

[Bastard]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1500 - Dr. Martin's Clinic, Seattle

"No thanks required. I would have really preferred no bullets were fired... As of what next, we need to get out of here. Do you have a place I can take you, that your 'friends' back there don't know about. Once we can get some space, we can dig into this link and figure out where to go next. I would like to clear you of all of this as soon as possible. You don't want to be dealing with megacorps. Trust me."

[Mercy]

Karla laughs. "That guy was corp. They know all about me, so it is a good thing I don't have any family they can threaten. I have no apartment, although I do have some furniture in a long-term storage place. I did take some classes on modern computers at Uni..............yes, I actually did go to college, thank you for looking so surprised. I only need a few credits to get a degree. Anyway, I was thinking that I might be able to take a look at the 'link, if you like."

[Bastard]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1500 - Dr. Martin's Clinic, Seattle

Johnny hands her the link. "Have at it. In my hands it would only end up broken."

[Mercy]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1501 - Dr. Martin's Clinic, Seattle


Karla laughs. "Then you better give it to me right away before that happens, eh?" She pauses. "So, we leaving your friend behind?"

[Bastard]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1501 - Dr. Martin's Clinic, Seattle


"Unfortunately. She is probably going to need a lot of bed rest and is going to have to lay low, out of the fight for some time."

[Mercy]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1501 - Dr. Martin's Clinic, Seattle


Karla nods as she finishes folding the towels and stacking them on a counter. "Got it. So where do we go so I can look at the 'link? And we really do need to get rid of the car before they start looking for it."

[Bastard]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1501 - Dr. Martin's Clinic, Seattle

"We can go switch it out for my car. Unfortunately it is near the scene of the crime... After we solve that issue, we can head over to Gordan's. It is low key and used to the likes of us."

[Mercy]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1501 - Dr. Martin's Clinic, Seattle


Karla laughs. "Drive all the way back there to swap cars? You like to live dangerously, don't you?" She shrugs. "Hey, I am in if you are."

[Bastard]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1501 - Dr. Martin's Clinic, Seattle


"This car may have a gps locator. My piece of shit does not."

[Mercy]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1501 - Dr. Martin's Clinic, Seattle


Karla shrugs her shoulders and nods. "I would bet that you are correct about the locator in this car. OK, I am sticking around a bit so tell me what you need me to do."

[Bastard]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1501 - Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, Seattle

It wasn't a good plan, but it was a plan. What might make things better is not using the current vehicle, so the first stop is long term parking at Seattle-Tacoma International. Stealing a car is a good option, but there are taxis readily available, everywhere. Instead of flagging one down at taxi-alley though, Johnny tries to get one outside the airport parking lot, where they are returning to wait in line.

Once acquiring the transportation, he and Karla return to the vehicle. For keeping things off the log, and securing his silence, Johnny pays the driver double.

For double, you easily find a cabbie willing to go out to where you left your vehicle.

[Bastard]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1600 - The scene of the crime, Seattle

Passing the road to the shootout location Johnny looks for signs of activity. Police or otherwise. If the back road appears clear, he will proceed with the vehicle pickup.

[Mercy]

Wednesday 12 June 2075 - 1621 - The scene of the crime, Seattle


Karla sinks down in the seat a bit as the cab approaches the small gas station and store at the crossroads, which appears to be open, but there are no vehicles in the parking lot. There is no activity on the road leading to the mansion and you decide to press on to where you had left your car. The cabbie grunts a bit at the location but does not say anything.

The car is just as you left it.
