500 nuyen? The guy only wanted money for food, the minute she wanted something important from him, he tries to squeeze her for a lot more. Damn, maybe she shoulda fragged the guy and put him out of his misery.
She laughs. "You're outta your mind old man." Jorinda replies. "Looks like you'll just have to go hungry after all." She looks at John. "Let's go, he's wasting our time."

The Hobo shook his hands in front of you "Hey hey now, I was just kiddin' haha! Don't you people recognize a joke when there's one? I really meant 250 Nuyen, not to mention you'll have your good deed done for the day.." He looked at both Jorinda and John with that 'beated puppy' look. "Now don't tell you you won't help your fellow man, and it's not like you'll get nothing out of it..You'll get the satisfaction of havin' make a diffrence..among other things." He glanced over the building containing the heat source, his hands caught up near his torso, it seems he's getting cold just standing there.

When the man starts to get a bit more reasonable, she asks John to stop for a moment. When he does, she turns back to face the old man. "A hundred, not a nuyen more." Jorinda says, folding her arms. The information was important, but not that important. "And only because I'm doing a good deed." 100 nuyen could go a long way in the Barrens, especially if the guy really did use it for food.

The old man cursed between his teeth "Fine, gimme the money first." After the money changes hands the hobo speaks up "From what I remember, there was that giant tub all made of copper, and there was that spinning tube going into another another big cylindrical copper tub, it smelled like drek, at least 50 times worse than it is now. It always guarded by at least 6-7 guys, I think they're making drugs or explosives in there or somethin'..but whatever it is it sure must be important."

Jorinda gives the guy the cred, keeping her distance as much as possible. She listens to what the guy has to offer, and thinks she has an idea of what it could be. They were processing something, that was for sure. "Thanks for your help." She waits for the bum to leave, keeping an eye on where he was headed. If he was going to talk to the Crashers, they'd have to take him out. She didn't want to have to do that.

"Thank YOU for your patronage Miss..." The hobo walks in the alley and enters the near-by dumpster "Hey Dac..DAC!" "What?" Dac seems even older than the old man "Dac, I got 100 Nuyen, some woman gave it to me" "Don't you mean you mugged her 100 Nuyen?" "Nah man, I just told them what's in our old roofed place and she gave me money..and check it out it's a credstick!" "Holy Drek..'must be damn curious..she wasn't a reporter or a NARC or somethin'?" "How the hell should I know?....now let's get some booze, we're gonna celebrate tonight!"
The old man gets out of the dumpster only to found out in shock you were still there. "Oh hey, you're..still...there...." Dac, still inside the dumpster, sounded like he was trying to get up from the garbage bags full of debrit that served as his bed. "Yeah I'm still here, gimme a second to get up..where's my hat?"

Jorinda decides to keep an eye on the guy. Sure enough, he went blabbing. Can't trust a bum to do anything right. Once again, one had proven to be an unreliable yet valuable source of information.
Jorinda folds her arms. "Yeah, we're still here." She replies quietly. "And your motor mouth just signed your death warrant." She really didn't want to have to kill the guy, but they might not have a lot of choice. One bum in the Barrens wouldn't be missed. That's what she had to tell herself. She takes out the Ceska and points it at the bum. Did she still have a clip of gel rounds on her? She wonders. Maybe all she really had to do was intimidate the guy.

((OCC:Hey, changing the name fo the thred are you!))
The bum takes a few nervous step back "Hey hey now lil' lady..don't do anything you'll regret.." He raised his arms in front of him, palm facing Jorinda and John, who popped open a cyber shotgun. Suddenly, the side opened opened up, a old, old human with a dirty out of age golfer's hat popped out, a small pistol in his hand "Get outta here Jim!" He fired twice, one shot at each of the runners first shot, at John, with 2 pool [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] rule fo 6 [dice=6] 3 success, for 4S second shot at Jorinda with 2 pool [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] rule fo 6 [dice=6] 3 success, for 4S
The first shot just came off, Jim runs away down the alley at high speed.[rand=817904151594477543019759666962759186044482641717570026622632081]

The running hobo gets a few buckshots to the body, and fell into some garbage bags, but still with a Serious wounds. As for the old, old man hiding in the dumpster, it seems the dumpster provided good protection for his body, but not-so-great defense for his face, with caught a few pellets. Blood gushed, splattering on the near-by wall and mostly filling the interior of the metal garbage-holder.
The running hobo, still lying in the garbage bags, convulse violently, trying to get away...That or it's his nerves reacting to the shock of the blast.

When the hobo shoots at them, Jorinda jumps out of the way, and the bullets whizz past her. She watches as John takes the shot, and hits the hobo, sending him flying into the garbage bags. She looks behind her, toward the entrance to the alley. It was the Barrens, sure, but she wasn't sure that the shots would go unnoticed or unignored.
Neither of their opponents were currently moving, so she decides to head back toward the alley, to see if anyone came to investigate....
