@Team & Nina> The guy that came out is Hisoka Yamaguchi, a the close associate of Sato Kanaga. A highly placed Yakusa boss that killed is old boss Takeo Shigeda. If that guy is here so Sato Kanaga. We are all going to have to mind our manners on this one, big time. In this case bad manners could be lethal.

@Operator> did you know about the Sato Kanaga being here?

[Operator]

"Good manners are the only manners to consider, minna-san. Let's not even entertain thoughts of performance at anything less than our best." Operator smiled to his associates as though a business supervisor would regard his employees, rising up from his seat.

<@Team> I apologize for the sudden turn of events, but I was informed just a minute ago that we would be dealing with Sato Kanaga. I was completely in the dark until now; they went to some great amount of trouble to stay anonymous. It is a most troubling development. In addition to whatever uncouth things you have heard, he is also impatient; let us not keep him waiting long.

<@Oliver> I keep myself out of Yakuza dealings. I know of them when they cross into the grey area with corporate business, but I do not get involved in them personally.

[Sichr]

@Operator:Well if you remember what I told you during our first meeting, crime syndicates are on my black list. Merde. I should leave now, instead of breathing the same air with this lowlife. Ill wait with my final conclusion after the meeting, because I dont think it would be safe for me to leave now. But there is great possibility that we would part our ways after we leave this cradle of filth.

[Triggvi]

@Team>by all means, in to the belly of the beast. Did they ever make a Godizilla movie where he attacked Seattle? He would be come in handy right about now.

Korbin drinks his beer down.

I'm going to hold for just a second to give the others some time to post, especially with memorial day coming up. Hopefully you all are enjoying the story elements so far. I tend to like moral dellema as as part of my storytelling style. Feel free to continue talking and I will probably move us to the meet tonight.

[Operator]

<@Nina> I remember it well, and thank you for choosing the back exit. You would earn respect from me, whatever that might be worth, by sticking to your beliefs.

That's fine, since you dropped a huge bombshell on us. Finding out that the Johnson is an oyabun is rather unnerving.
Operator will be leading the runners into the meeting room when they are ready. It should be noted that he will be first in line.

[Teyl_Iliar]

Slip's cheerful expression vanishes at the mention of the yakuza. It is replaced by the straightest face she can muster. She see's Operator's expression harden as well.

@ Op>The only reason I'm staying is for you. I won't let you walk in to a shark's den alone. I've heard of our host, and what he thinks of people like me so I'll be on my best behavior. But I'm warning you if this job could hurt the underground, I'm out. Otherwise, I want my gear back when we leave. Muzzle if he's the one who set this up owes us an explaination for this.

[Ethan]

Nadir's with the others, dining obliviously on a small bento box while the rest of the team obviously takes the news none too well. He looks up at their expressions with a mouth full of sushi.

<@Team> Well, first of all, let me say hello to everyone and thanks for inviting me to this party. All I get from this is yakuza=bigotry so I'll stay and at the very least help insure that we all make it out of here should things turn sour. I'll let you do the talking, Operator, but I'm not a fan of organizations like these. I'll back your play guys so let's go, best not to wake him wait.

[Triggvi]

@Muzzle> What is this run about and why are we meeting with Sato Kanaga? I am not pleased we are dealing with a Yak boss.

[Redwulfe]

<@Oliver from Muzzle>

I assure you if I had known it was the yaks I would never have sent Operator into the meet. they enjoy a level of annonymity that even I could not trace. I pride myself on not setting up my runners and this one smells fowl to me. The information is getting to me only at this point and it is a bit late for me to cover your tracks and get you out of there. Keep your head down and Operator should be able to get you all out as soon as possible.

The team gets up one by one and follows Operator to the back room. No one seems to stop you as you move past athe restricted sign into the kitchen. Several drones set on racks awaiting there food or drinks for delivery to the customers outside. Once everyone is through the door you notice a Japanese man standing in front of another door down the hall. The kitchen staff does not hinder or for that mater seem to notice your presence. Operator leads you all down the hall to the Japanese man and upon seeing your approach he opens the door to it. Oliver and Operator recognize the man as Hisoka Yamaguchi. he is dressed in a nice black suit and opens the door for you without any need for pleasantries. Entering the room it looks to be a standard conference room with large table running lengthwise for the door. Sitting at the other end is someone that has been in the news from time to time and needs no introduction, Sato Kanaga. Upon seeing you enter he bows forward slightly and with a Jesuits invites you all to sit down. He surveys your group briefly befor speaking, Konichiwa.

[Sichr]

Nina`s last words at the table, before entering the johnsons party.

@Team: Well there always is a hope that he would need us to do some honest job his black heart dont allow him to execute

[Operator]

<@Team> I will continue to listen to our channel, but may not be able to respond immediately.

Operator kept his eyes forward, walking an unwavering line to the Japanese man at the end of the hall. What an odd feeling of déjà vu; for a moment, it seemed almost was if he were attending a business meeting some fifteen years ago. In the past as well as the present, Hisoka opened the door for him. It was an art form unto itself, a subtle expression of pleasantries that only discerning eyes would recognize.

It has been too long, Yamaguchi-san. I hoped to meet you under better circumstances.

Operator returned the oyabun's gesture without hesitation, bowing forward slightly at the waist. When the invitation to sit was given, he took his seat at the table opposite of Sato Kanaga. His upright, attentive posture was befitting that of a Japanese citizen and a representative of corporate management. "Konnichiwa, Kanaga-san."

[Triggvi]

Korbin takes a seat following Operators lead. Korbin maintains a poker face. Listens to the conversation and looks for deceptions and lies on Sato's part

[Teyl_Iliar]

Slip follows in behind Oliver and takes the next seat to him her poker face also firmly in place.

(OOC: Slip will make a head count of the guards on her way in )

[Ethan]

<@Team> Would it be rude if I slipped into Astral Sight? Never dealt with the yakuza and their protocols before...

Nadir follows the rest of the team, walking non-chalantly. He'll take a seat if one is available, but will prefer to stand.
