The time is 00:06 am, 00:29 hours to the meet with Void, 08:54 hours to the ransom deadline.

[Chrona]

Hows it going in there?

[Sentinemodo]

The time is 00:30:01 am, 08:30 hours to the ransom deadline.

Cursor went into full VR follwoing the chatnode address given byt the mysterious Void. Leaving his team and body behind.
The scultpture of the Room 3141 of the Hub’s Avatar Assassin Guild Hall remind you an open space. Amongst the galaxies you see a black whirlwind. The Void icon seems to drag in pieces of the nearby system and they get lost within the darkness. Once you closed in to talk you have a simsense reaction of cold and hunger like the vacuum.

I am assuming you're done at the HammerJack's appartment. He didn't show up before the time, and Cursor went VR from the van. The remainder of you decided against following into the Matrix. If either of that is not true (ie. you want to do something prior to the meeting, or you want to follow Cursor into the Matrix, please let me know asap.)

His voice is booming and resonating through the space.
First - do not try to trace me. I am the Void, and it is futile for you to try. Secondary - I know you're following the package, that has been taken from the Falcone's ranch. With that one of the stars nerby explode into the window showing the surveliance footage you already know.

I am able to both warn you and help you track the package. I want 2500 yen for that.

[Boer_Kommando]

Mata Tabi approaches the doorman, offering him a smoke before smiling." Look. I know you dont know me, but Hammer, thats what we called him in the Frat. Hammer and I go back a long ways, and I owe him something big in return for a prank he pulled. All I want to do is some real kid stuff, like to clearwrap the toilet, replace his underwear with huge womens panties, you know kid stuff. I'll even call him and let him know I'm in town shortly after he arrives back...if you'd give me a call to let me know. He'll know its me and it'll be all good. So, what do you say chum?"

[Sentinemodo]

And where exactly you have those panties? He might be back any time, and I could get into big troubles.

He basicly needs something to sooth his consciousness, something like 200 yen. If you pay all of you can enter.

[Chrona]

Hm I see. I'm afraid I cant hand over so much money just because you know one name, you'll need to give me more.

MT, call Falcone and say Belinkiy is safe and will be on his way back safely and quietly in his own time, we're going after the ransom-er so that no word gets out about this, and e think it might be Hammerjack or Void, tell me what Falcone's reaction is when you mention "Hammerjack" and "Void".

[Sentinemodo]

I said I have an info and a warning not a name. For the info it is an RFID of the package it should help you locate him. Especially that it's on the move. As for the warning I think it is worth the price.

[Chrona]

"I will need to confer with my team first."

[Boer_Kommando]

Mata Tabi smiles at the doorman "I couldnt be sure you'd be so helpful and I didnt want to carry around oversized panties...I'd look like a freak. I'm going to go buy some now, and hey for the previlege of letting me get one over on Hammer, how's 200?"

Mata Tabi sees the text as he turns to leave and then texts back 'Stall him. Ask him if he thinks we're not good enough to find the package. Gauge his reaction. I'll give Falcone a call."

Mata quickly dials Falcone and once he has him on the Line. "The package is safe, but cant be delivered do to professional courtesy. The ransom isnt them.....the name Void or HammerJack mean anything to you?"


With that Mata quick steps it to the van "Quickly, we need to find some 'Flat' machines or convenience stores that sell woman's articles.....and get any bags you can. I convinced the doorboy we're here to pull a prank, and since this drekhead has been pulling our chains..... I'm taking his stuff. Tit for Tat and all that. Lets move we're on a tight schedule."

How about mine? and I have a duffelbag too.

[Boer_Kommando]

Mata Tabi looks on the Troll "Finally going to contribute something useful to the group? Good. Empty it out, if the doorboy looks through it I dont want to look like I'm occupying the place."

[Sentinemodo]

"I will need to confer with my team first."

What kind of fool you think I am? You want to trace me? The price just got doubled, or maybe you think you don't need it? Who do you think grabbed the package and who gave the order? And why were you hired? Unknowns, newbies, that mage of yours he still has milk under his nose. Decide now!

But that outburst gave you another second. ;P

[Sentinemodo]

Mata Tabi smiles at the doorman "I couldnt be sure you'd be so helpful and I didnt want to carry around oversized panties...I'd look like a freak. I'm going to go buy some now, and hey for the previlege of letting me get one over on Hammer, how's 200?"

cha-ching

1. Mata quickly dials Falcone and once he has him on the Line. "The package is safe, but cant be delivered do to professional courtesy.

2. The ransom isnt them.....the name Void or HammerJack mean anything to you?"

1. How safe? professional courtesy? With kidnappers? you kidding me? I do hope you know what you're doing.... (the untold warning was crystal clear)

2. HammerJack, I don't know the other name. He was a decker, old school, member of one of the teams, back in times when I was fixing runs in Seattle. One of the runs didn't went well, shit happens. On that day the entire team disappeared, never heard of them again, and it costed me a lot when they didn't deliver. That's all I know.

[Boer_Kommando]

Mata is about the business of punching in his order for Troll Girthed womens underwaer in the 'Flatz Spectacular' machine as he listens to Falcone. "Yes, I know what I'm doing Mr. Falcone. It's why you hired me and the team. The team that took the package is professional and most importantly tight-knit as in they dont work with people outside their team, and we've handled this professionally...we could have gone in heavy handed and possibly got the package damaged. Be glad we're just that good, as it now appears the ransom is bogus and this HammerJack is a red herring."

Mata begins taking out the Troll-Girth sized panties and stuffing them into the duffle. He shudders at the thought of the proportions of Troll women.
