@Mia & Smiley

Mia, in a flurry of acapella music and swearing, summons a spirit, dismissing the one that was there before. Although the spirit does not speak, Mia hears it asking her for her request.

Meanwhile, Smiley takes the limp body of the girl that had fallen on the ground and starts jogging with it, Yaibei in tow.

@Pipebomb

You arrive to the location that was indicated to you and, after a few moments, see Smiley, Mia and Yaibei with a fourth person seemingly sleeping in Smiley's arms.

[Necrogigas]

Fischer rolled down the window, "What's the rundown?"

[Crossbow]

"You want this in the seat or the trunk?  We will need to find place to go where we know she will answer some questions." Smiley says, no hint of a happy note in his voice, it is worth noting.

[Necrogigas]

"Seat, this place is too public to stuff her in the trunk."

[Crossbow]

Smiley puts the girl in the car and tells the team "We should meet up with the others and figure what we need to do.  Keep an eye on her Pipe, she is a hostile witness, but no breakage, understood?"  Then Smiley will begin to take a winding path back to his bike.

[Necrogigas]

Fischer nodded to Smiley, "Figure out a meet point, and I'll be there." He quickly left the area, taking truly random turns and backtracks.

"Let me know if you need me, I need a beer and a nap!"

Mia takes off towards Tav's. After staching her bike around back, she stumbles her way in thru the back, waving down the probie star sittin in the store room and slumping onto the first stool at the bar. McTavish is doing the early morning clean and getting the Caf Machine heated up and doesn't even spare Mia a second glance.

"Tavish, I got two probelms. One, I dont have a beer in my hand. Two... This job you got me." She shakes her head "I don't know man..."

@Mia

McTavish takes one of the glasses freshly cleaned and pours Mia a fresh one, with just the right amount of head. Tokyo is always humid, so condensation quickly forms on the clear glass, giving the beer a certain appeal that only an all-nighter can fuel. He gets a coaster and sets the tall glass in front of Mia, asking her "What's wrong with this one?" while going back to his chores.

[Muscular_Bevar]

"You of all people know my gig Tav. This just don't feel right, some bad bad mojo, you dig! I'm mean corp cover-ups, people gettin hit... poisoned even! Not to mention this "Crew" i'm workin with... man, infighting and bitching. If you thought there was something in this, should just pulled together the stars and we could rolled on it proper. I just dont think i'm cut out for this cloak a dagger shit." Mia stops and shakes her head, staring sadly down at the drink in her hand. Reluctantly her hand brings the glass to her lips and she pulls down a massive gulp of amber liquid. "Tav...." the word falls from her lips and sadness fills her eyes. The silence following her words hangs still in the air...

"You gonna finish that luv?"

Head back, the ale is soon gone and with an almighty crack the glass comes to rest on the counter. "Tavish, you gotta tell me, what it is your hoping to get out of this?"

[HydroRaven]

"You mean besides the immediate pay check" answers McTavish with a sly smile in the corner of his mouth. He takes a moment to look at Mia seriously and says "I'm hoping eventually you'll be able to take care of yourself and of the others." he quickly goes back to cleaning the place.

[Muscular_Bevar]

"Alright. Let me know if you need anything else..." And with that Mia leaves the bar and heads home. Throwing herself onto the bed and kicking off her boots, one last thought ran thru her head as she drifted off to sleep "I wonder what that crazy old man really wants..."

[HydroRaven]

@Pipebomb & Smiley

You drive around, making sure nobody is tailing you before settling on a quiet location. There aren't many abandoned buildings in Neo-Tokyo, but you manage to find a mostly empty parking lot far enough from any main roads and decide to wait.

[Necrogigas]

After finding a relatively safe spot to park, Fischer called Smiley, "So, what happened?"

[Crossbow]

"I tried to sweet talk the intel I needed from her, she played hardass a little too much and said something she shouldn't have, so now we gotta work on her another way."  said Smiley as he wound through random morning traffic.  "We need to treat her delicately though, I don't know if you have done the math yet, but this girl could be the reason our Johnson and the dead lady haven't kept in touch."
