OOC: I apologize this is a little late.. ive been waiting for a PM responce... since I havent gotten it yet we will continue
The soft breeze whistles through the ropes of the yacht.. Chen is feeling pretty tired seemingly for no reason... its been 2 hours since the encounter and its been quite since.... as the group sits near to each other.. they exchange brief conversation.. it is interupted by the sounds of another boat approaching... gathering your weapons and preparing for another attack... you see the Doc wave frantically at the boat.. which in turn flashes their spot-light on and off several times
its ok guys..weve been waiting for them
the large power boat pulls up along side the yacht and 3 armed men stand at the side of the boat
wheres david? one of them says... then seeing the look on everyones face the captain.. where is he?
the other 2 men pull the boat closer and tie the 2 together with rope... one man jumps from the boat to the yacht.. looks at all of you then puts his gun away...
(hearing the news) hmm.. dissapointing I guess.. david was a good man... he looks to Chen we will be tying the 2 boats together and pulling you guys to the port in California... he looks beyond the party hmm coulda swore there was Ork here too when we pulled up...

making a quick look around the boat for the Orc who was on the light......
"Well since we have some time... those of you wishing to come to Japan for a few days of work meet me inside the cabin"
Looking to the men from the other boat....
"I am sorry David was a causalty, I did not know him and I hope that he will be looked after befitting a man who gave his life for his Company"

"Well...oh...ok." At this point Nina moves inside the cabin and takes a seat fit for an ork being carefull that the lights are not too bright. [ooc: if they are then she puts her hat and sunglasses back on.]

((Taking a trip home to collect my "supplies." I'm gonna call my fixer and explain what happened, and that I'm going to take a trip to Japan as I am hoping I might have found some new potential clients and I want to have a little fun... Japan can be tough, they may see the sense in taking the edges that I am offering, but until I get back, I need him to contend to my usual clients. I give him an acct# for my bank))
Japan... this might be really cool...

Cali? They were going to Cali? Drek. She didn't have any connections or know where to go to get supplies there. Now getting a phone was even more important. Dom would be worried, especially when or if the attack on the docks hit the news trids.
She looks around for Tony. He was here, where'd he go? Failing that, once the boats are tied up, she will look to the others and see if anyone else has a cell phone she could borrow...

Wow, I knew I was the NKotB but it's like I'm still Invisible. I could launch a LB in the air, but I'm pretty sure that would make me person non-gratis around here. Drek!
Volcano will move into the cabin finding a spot where he can be seen.
Japan. I've heard they have a big Martial Tradition there. Anyone fight one of their Samurais or Ninjas? I hear they can't be beat by Mundanes. That it takes some serious 'ware or Veneficus to make them sleep the long sleep. Hey aren't we supposed to have Passports or something to get past customs? I didn't bring my passport with me, I thought I would just be meeting with my Erus tonight for a job or something... Volcano will end in a whisper as he realizes that no one is paying any attention to him and his ¥5 words.

It isnt long before the sun stretches out across the horizon.. Tony dissapearance is baffeling..how did he get off the boat? where did he go? but a much bigger task stands ahead of you now... Jorinda you are able to get a cell off of one of the crew and call Dom... hes only reply is for you to retrieve that package by noon time the boat pulls into the cali-docks... boats fill the area as well as people of all races walking around, working, on their boats and talking.. its a busy place... the captain pulls your boat up to one of the docks, the 2 crew jump off and tie the boat down then jump back on the boat. the captain comes to the side of the boat as they slowly start to cast off back to the ocean (to chen) the plane leaves in 6 hours.. make sure your on it, the boss wants no more delays he mock salutes to everyone and it isnt long before the boat is lost in the wide variety of other boats.
as you guys gather your gear and step onto the dock.. you are approached by a an odd little character, shorter that an dwark, extremely skinny with huge eyes. he pulls out a camera and starts taking multiple snapshots of everyone..
hi im knute.. knutes the go to man around here (snap snap ) what are you guys here for? (snap) first time here? cause you (snap ) look like tourists and (snap) you should always have pictures (snap snap ) of your first time to a place (snap) and your just in luck cause knute only sells (snap snap ) them for 5Y each (snap).. he puts the camera down maybe you need a guide.. knutes real cheap.. 50Y for a guide and I can show you all the sites of California... OH and welcome by the way... are you tourists!! you look like tourists.. need a cab? his little body seems to twitch with the excitement of a child at christmas...and his speach begins to speed up knutecangetyouanywhereyouwannagoyoujustletknuteknowhecancallacaband takecareofyourboatreallycheapknutesreallycheapwhatareyouhereforwillyouhireknute? he stops to take a breath...

Tony was missing. Jorinda'd even gone below deck to try to track him down, but he was gone, like he'd vanished or something, and a troll being able to vanish...well, that was some trick.
As Jorinda listens to Dom, the irritation of being shot at has already started to set in. "How the drek are we supposed to find that drekking package? That whole damned dock was overrun by Halloweeners, and we're on the way to Cali."
If Dom has any helpful suggestions, she'll listen, otherwise, Jorinda will simply hang up and hand it back to the lender with a thank you.
6 hours. The plane was leaving in 6 hours. So how were they going to track down the package? Quicksilver had disappeared during the gunfight, so that left only Cody and Wheels. She decides to call them over to a semi-private corner of the boat and relay Dom's message to them.
When they arrive, a gnat of a guy starts taking pictures. Well, she wasn't unaccustomed to that, but it was annoying as drek when you ran into an outright pest. When he gets close, Jorinda's reply is "Nah, we ain't tourists, so keep your photos."
As for his offer of being a guide, she isn't in charge, so she points him in the direction of Chen, who does seem to be.

Remaining quiet for the remainder of the trip to California, though Erick did find it interesting as he listened to Volcano. Acknowledging him with a shrug of his shoulders to the questions posed by the young one. "Funny how things change quickly in this town." Erick responds to Volcano's last remark. "Myself I was just going for a walk." Which in part was the truth. Erick didn't say it but he was impressed with what he had seen during the incident.
While waiting, Erick did thumb idly through the few belongings he carried in the pockets of his lined coat. He passed on consulting the rune stones as he observed the remaining members on the boat. Erick watched as folks either kept to themselves or consulted with the those they arrived with. The disappearance of one did keep him on the edge for a moment.
Not needing much in the way of supplies, Erick finds himself one of the first off the boat when it docks. Despite his travels through the Midwest and the Northwest, Erick's business had not taken him to California yet and he was eager to gain some knowledge of the area, even though their stay was to be short.
The moment the flashes start from Knute, Erick debates short circuiting the camera out of sheer spite. But the debate is cut short when the little one offers a flurry of questions to boggle the mind of the most sane man. "Wrong person to ask." Erick says, nodding in the direction of Chen. Before waiting for the tornado called Knute to whip up a frenzied series of response, Erick steps past the man to take in the surroundings.

During the Trip to th Dock in Cali....I ask whomever joined me in the Cabin if they really want the job and offer some details.
Looking around at the mottle crew in the cabin... nodding to each individually, "I am sorry, i am very yired right now, but to business. I am to retrieve a package in Japan for my employers. It has been implanted in a Live target." Pulling the picture from an inside pocket, and placing it on the table..."This is the subject of my job, and the item he carries is what concerns me. I do not have much information on him save where he is, and that there seems to be a high him. I know little of where he is being held, save for a little on the security and the location. WIth your help, if you are interested, I hope to finish this job and come back here. I am willing to pay anyone who helps me $7500 Nuyen and supply what items we might need within reason. If you are interested, I need to know now as time is of the essence. I know we each posses our own talents and have maybe some other obligations, but I offer you this now."
Looking to each individual for a second for an answer....
Fast forward to the dock in Cali....
Looking a little bemused at Knute, "Well my little friend, maybe you can help me"
Taking Knute down the dock a little.....
