"Something labelled Vaccine 3.7," Helios answers. "Maybe he really was researching a cure. Then again, I'm sure he wouldn't leave vials labelled 'Biowarfare Agent 2.0' lying around labelled like so."
Having put the last of the tubes in the case, Helios closes it up carefully. "Let's see if any of us have a contact who can tell us what these are," Helios says, with the case in his left hand and his Manhunter in the other. |

"Well, don't drop those or throw them at someone. They might turn out to be the virus."

Over the comms, Bishop chimes in... "Master Bedroom and Garage are usless. I'm gunna dig through the trash and see what turns up."
He moves into the main room and starts digging. |

Edana:
Weaves of mana stream through the implement and soar outward scouring for a sign of Ballefour. You are unable to latch onto him, which oddly makes you more comfortable. That bastard isn't lurking just outside the house to prey on one of the nearby families. |

"No drek," Helios says, slightly annoyed.
Suddenly a thought occurs to Helios. If this is his lab, where's his research notes? Helios immediately goes looking for any documents that look like research notes. |

Charlie swallowed hard, taking in the sight of the master bedroom. He quickly turns and walks back into the hallway. He finds the closest bathroom and begins searching.
Might be a good idea to let the boys know where this is, just in case. That was some sick drek. "I'm checking over the bathroom right now. If you need it, come and let me know." |

Helios:
You turn and scan the room looking around for a desk or work area. It wasn't in the fridges, and Grave didn't mention finding any computer stuff in the plastic boxes. Possibly next to the sink? Crossing the room, you start pulling open cabinets but only find antibacterial soap, gloves and sterile smocks. If this was the laboratory of your mad scientist, he collected up his notes when he left. |

"What are you looking for, man?" asks Graves.
"His notes." "OK, where haven't we searched?" ponders Graves, he looks around the room. The operating tables? |

Street Doc:
The two of you move to pore over the surgical tables. Helios notes some of the interfaces on the table for suction and transfusions look...off...unable to put a finger on what is wrong with them, he starts to trace the path down under the table. He rips off a panel and finds a micronized blood filtration system. It looks like it splices one of the suction lines through the filter where a small vial similar to that in the fridge is added to the mix and sent through a transfusion bag back into the patient. The vial looks to be empty. |

"Damn," Helios says.
"I'm no doctor, but given this construction...I'd say this machine sucks the blood out of the subject..." he traces his finger along the suction tube to the vial "...and uses it as a carrier to deliver whatever is in these vials into the subject through this..." he traces his finger along the tube to the transfusion bag. "If nothing else, I think we just found out how this guy's delivering his 'cure.'" |

"Bishop, the computer room is clear, not a thing in here. I dont see how this room could be so clean, while the next is so...," his voice trails off and the communication ends. It picks up after a few seconds, "I'm going to walk Kane around the perimeter, see if we can find anything else."
The two move through the living room toward the front door. There JT pauses, he unholsters his pistol and holds it in his againsts his outer thigh, his finger on the outside of the trigger housing. Kane sits patiently watching his masters movements, waiting for his command. With a quick flash the dog faced mask appears once again upon the shaman as he casts a spell. After sensing the area outside is clear, JT sends another transmition, "Can someone hit the hall light, Kane and I are going to walk the perimeter." Before JT's aura gives off its visual effects this time, he and Kane disappear. |

" Thanks Old Amos for your time and infomation. If the street talk to you on here my number." Hand Old Amos a card With Tinys contact details.
" If your ever heard of Tamanous Corporation. You have my number." Thanking Amos again Tiny head on his way. Once out of sight he looks that address and number over. Heading of the nearest Lav train for that area, thats of course if its the quickest route. |

Ballefour's:
The hallway light goes out momentarily as the front door opens and closes for your teammates who have vanished from sight but come up on the battletac system. JT: Magic draws your mind out to the surrounding area, nothing has changed since you entered the house--families are still at home in their beds. You exit the house and pass around the perimeter of the building, Kane's nose to the ground sniffing for foreign scents. Bishop: The glories of trash reveal their secrets almost immediately to you as you scour the waste bin and dig through drawers. A crumpled note handwritten lays beside the trash receptacle with times and destinations for several trains and suborbitals, most are crossed out but two options remain. Suborbital--Seattle to Zurich or a late night express train to New York. Both options would have left by now. Tiny: Catching the train right as it starts to leave the station, you ride down to Puyallup and get off just moments later. Looking around, you begin moving with the same cautious patterns that your father taught you to use when hunting. Staying to the shadows and dark parts of the street, you come upon a decrepit building, boarded over windows appearing rather uninviting. |

Keeping well in to the Shadows and observing cautiously. Confirming that this is the correct address.
Just checking doing a precheck of equipment, Tiny make sure every thing is ready. A just incase idea if things get nasty. |

Gonzales looks through the two rooms for any sign of computer equipment, chips or hard copy notes... having watched the other two in action and confirmed that setting them to work together seemed like a good long term plan...

Grave gestures to the back door,"Come on, let's see what behind door number 2."

"Yeah; guess we've done all we can here," Helios says as he moves towards the door and slowly opens it.

Following the dog's lead, JT continues to search for clues around the building.

After the lights go out Edana is finished. She can't seem to keep her mind on the work of sleuthing. Astral images flicker through her head, an insane, twisted slide show she can't stop. She's not sleeping tonight. "Can we get outta here?" She hugs her arms across her chest and shivers.
"I mean, if we've... uh... if we've got what we need," she adds feeling shamed and foolish and very, very out of her league. |

Street Doc:
As Helios pushes the door, it gets slightly ajar before a chain get pulled taut. Looks like the backdoor is still chained from the outside with a padlock. Tiny: A flicker of light and the rattle of a chain comes from the back of the building as you move forward trying to confirm the address. |

The hell?, Helios thinks. Why is the door chained from the OUTSIDE?
Gently placing the case down, Helios draws his katana and tries to cut through the metal chain. |

Helios:
Holding the door open with your knee, you draw your katana up over your head and come down with a powerful overhand blow. The chain gives way under the length of folded steel in your hands and the door pushes open revealing the back of the building and the night sky. Tiny: A sharp sound of metal cutting metal is heard from the back is followed quickly by a chain falling to the ground. The light pooling out from the back of the building is brighter now as if a partially opened door is now open fully. |

Re-sheathing his sword and picking the case up again, Helios checks both ways for anything dangerous/threatening before walking out the door.

"I got something. Transportation sceduals, but it looks like they would have left already. We'll have to check out the passenger lists to see if our boy showed or not. I think thats everything though, so lets bug out."
Bishop makes his way to the front door and waits for the team to join him. He checks the windows to make sure the coast is clear, then gives a nod for the team to quickly move out. |
