At your jibe the trio grunts almost in unison, calling for the elevator you wait calmly, the hooker at your side fidgeting just a tiny bit, a couple of seconds later the elevator noisily grinds to an alt, stepping in and closing the ancient door, the thing must be a blast from the past, you just hope that becomes true due to its derelict condition.

Slowly calling the 3rd floor as destination Dana takes a quick glance at you we are not going to a party... you not be wanting to do anything bad to Oxy would you? she looks with intensity.

Having followed the pirate to the rear of the building and up the stairs, Baron Mojo watched as the pirate inspected the maglock. As his commlink buzzed, he pulled it out and read the screen. Tapping Captain Cormack on the shoulder, the mage said, "If neither of the others have an idea, I may be able to use a spell to open it. If nothing else, it should be quieter than more physical methods."

//"Moto can send one high caliber "universal access key" to lock from silenced assault rifle hovering in the sky above you. Let me know when ready. Or, Count Zorro could likely just open it for you. Your choice.

At the last second, Moto decided to add a friendly smiley face at the end of the message. It looked like his Renraku Manservant droid making an awkward attempt at a grin.

Bad Johnny Juju canted his head to one side thoughtfully as he considered Dana's question. Well, it's pretty likely that Oxycode is a goner. If that's the case, I'll need Dana on my side so I can get information on his enemies and associates afterward. So I have to play this like I've got Oxy's best interests at heart. Johnny pursed his lips before he spoke, choosing his words carefully. "I'm not sure if you're aware, but Oxy's in a bit of trouble. My job is to find him, make sure he's still breathing, and offer him a mututally beneficial deal that will make sure he keeps breathing." "Give me your commlink and I won't have my demon tear you to bits" can be seen as mutually beneficial in a certain light, Johnny added silently to himself. He then turned to look Dana right in the eyes as the elevator climbed. "I can't guarantee he'll be happy to see me, but I can promise you I don't intend to do Oxy any harm." That part, at least, was true.

"if you can do it quitely, by all means go a head. I left my lockpicks in my other coat."

[Vandarl]

"Don't worry, I got the door key right here."
With a thought, Bobby sends a quick command via the dwarf's commlink, and with a small buzzing sound the maglock on the back door disengages.
"Door unlocked, no matrix chatter or indications anyone is noticing us so far. Quiet seems to be working for us for the moment. "

Baron Mojo reached out to destroy the maglock when Count Zorro's message came through. Lowering his hand, he said, "Good, no need for theatrics. We are going to hold here unless Johnny calls for assistance, correct?"

[Triskavanski]

"Heck no!" John says. "Might as well have stayed in the van if we're going to wait here. We've got three floors to cover, and unless you can make us fly, we'll have to walk." he turns down the now open door, moving in slowly, scanning for cameras.

Quickly scanning the door and the lit area of the catwalk in front of him the Captain spots a ancient camera model positioned on the ceiling, its optic directed to the door.

[Triskavanski]

//Message - Count/Barron: Can you turn off the video feed back here? The camera is pointed at the door. I'm going in.

John wasn't stupid, despite what everyone else thinks of him. He was lucky, but he knew he couldn't rely on luck do everything for him. But fortune favors the bold, and so he slips in, attempting to appear as though he belong there, walking through the back door.

The ork hooker looks at you with a certain degree  of distrust, gently she move her hand away from her purse Ok mister, you treat Oxy good, ok? Just as she finishes her short sentence, the elevator still climbing oh so very slowly and squealing as it goes, a small message reaches your commling

>>incoming message: Claw
   >>Hey, remember you asking about that piece of drek pusher... made some calls, seems the Choson and the Komun'Go rings have taken an interest in that prick, you watch you back.

Grinding to an alt the elevator stops on the third floor

[Bewilderbeast]

Johnny bobbed his head at Dana. "I will," he said, already distracted by Claw's response. He punched out a quick text back. <<You've come through for me again, omae. Appreciate it.>> He also sent a quick subvocal-to-text message to the team. <<Tech guys: my boy says Oxycode is in trouble with the Choson and Komun'Go. Our Johnson was Choson? If he's...>> Johnny hesitated, glancing sidelong at Dana, wondering if she was picking up on the subvocal speech. Best not to risk it. <<... if he's "in significant distress," then it's most likely the Komun'Go, right? Anybody have info on them?>> Johnny added the euphamism-tastic quotations marks to his second subvocal message before sending it out, then tucked his commlink away as the elevator jerked to a halt.

"After you, Dana," Johnny said with a gesture toward the the squealing elevator door. "You can either just point me to Oxy's room or come with me while I speak to him, up to you. Either way I appreciate your help, dear heart."

Moto kept an eye on the feed from Romeo-2 as Lucky Dog Cormac and Baron Mojo entered the secondary entrance. "Count Zorro seems to know his stuff, at least. And the good captain might come in handy as a distraction at some point, he certainly stands out in a crowd".

Johnny's message appeared in his view, and Moto immediately queued up a couple of queries with his Browse program. As the elevator stopped at the third floor, Moto watch Johnny exit with the ork hooker through the feed from Romeo-1, and he sent off a reply with the speed of thought.

//Compose message to Cormac, Mojo, Johnny, Zorro
//"Search initiated, wait 1. Preliminary research indicates Johnson is affiliated with Choson Seoulpa. Advice not jumping to conclusions; gang land assassinations not uncommon as rivalry between dealers often escalate to violent confrontations. If subject in room is in fact Oxycode, estimate death could have been caused by 5 different factions, at the very least."
//Send message

With the message sent, the dwarf began reviewing the search results as they were brought up in his view in one after the other, and immediately set up more detailed parameters he knew would take more time. "Always best to be cautious", he thought to himself as his mind interfaced directly with the programs and machines at his disposal. Confirming that the ork outside the main entrance was still sensor locked, he double-checked the visual from Romeo-2 before resuming his surveillance of Johnny's approach to room 312.

[Celtibero]

Quickly opening the a search pop window on his field of view Moto searched the matrix for any publicly available information regarding Komun'Go as well as any connection between them and the Seoulpa ring.as the data came through there was not much to tell, apparently both groups illegal activities where not the same, The Seoulpa ring basing their activities primarily on the matrix and the Komun'Go allegedly having connections with organleggers operations, odd fact was that they seemed to be at peace with each other, where maybe this recent events words that they where cooperating with each other?

At about the same time the Captain own commlink sounded with Bobbys voice, its exasperated tone saying there where no cameras in that part of the building nor in any other part.

"Are you fragging mentally damaged?" Baron Mojo asked Cormack. "That's a serious question. Johnny is inside, there's no reason for us to go in there now unless bad drek happens. Otherwise, we seriously increase the chance of fragging up Johnny's play."

As an aside, the mage said, "I can actually make us fly if you want, just say the word. I may also be able to hide us from that camera if necessary. Probably doesn't even work..."
