The Guardians

Well, go back to Guardian HQ, ponder what little infomation ive learned about the Shadows so far and do more resaerch.

Ill go to the Police Station and show D.S OHara how stealh like I can be with my powers.

Im rather stumped, so Ill aid Tony with some more research at HQ.

Dan, you might want to hope that OHarras husband isnt a Gifted...me, id find that ratherr funny :p

Im tired, so I want to run the update earlier tonight. If Scott and Martyn dont post within the next half hour theyll be too late.

Im stuck, so Ill have a proper coffee, and moan about OHara. I will also research the shizzle about night crystals on the internet, and find out why anyone would want them.

and i will help you

Guardian H.Q

Stomper, Marathon, Funkie Junkie and Psy spend some time running searches on the Shadows on the Guardians database, but find nothing new, much to their frustration. If there IS anything in this case the database can help with, it isn€™t the Shadows.

Police station

Blur sneaks into the police station and soon find O€™Hara€™s office. She€™s not in at the moment, so he sneaks in and stands perfectly still next to the filing cabinet and vanishes, waiting for the perfect chance to surprise O€™Hara. After a while, she comes in, and opens a cupboard in the wall, placing some boxes of forms there, and then leaves before Blur can move. Much to his distress, he hears the lock click, and O€™Hara€™s voice telling someone that she€™s off for the day. In a panic, he knocks on the door, but no-one hears. It€™s a long night for Blur, and the only thing that cheers him up is the discovery that O€™Hara left a bar of fruit€™n€™nut chocolate and a packet of crisps in her desk draw.

Blur can perform no actions until the next morning in game time. However, the sneaking around was good practise. Blur€™s proficiency up 5 points.

Aces

Mephistopheles goes back into Aces, and finds Hewlit still there. Instead of the staring contest last time, he sits opposite Hewlit.

€œI wondered how long it would take one of you guys to notice me,€ he says, as Mephistopheles sits down, pulling out a cigar and lighting it. Hewlit then grins, and his skin flashes blue as he breathes cold vapour over the cigar, extinguishing it. Mephistopheles looks sorrowfully at the soggy cigar, before pulling out another.
€œHere, let me,€ Hewlit says, touching the end of the cigar with his finger, which flashes red, causing the cigar to light up. Hewlit seems unharmed.

€œIf you€™re done showing off,€ Mephistopheles says, €œI want to talk to you.€
€œWhat makes you think I want to talk to you?€ Hewlit responds.
Mephistopheles replies by heating up Hewlit€™s wheelchair. Hewlit responds by flashing blue and cooling down his own wheelchair. Stalemate. Hewlit sighs.
€œOK, it seems you€™re not too bright. Give me money, I will give you information, capiche?€
€œI want to know everything you know about the Shadows, and night crystals,€ Mephistopheles replies, handing over 40 EU dollars. Hewlit looks surprised at the amount of money in his hand, and Mephistopheles thinks that maybe he wasn€™t expecting that much. Still, it€™s too late as the money soon vanishes into a pocket.

€œI don€™t know much about night crystals,€ he says at last. €œI heard they could be used as a power source, but it€™s not widely advertised. And, no, I don€™t know the specifics. It was something I overheard while€¦ Occupied by something else.€
Hewlit won€™t go any further on that subject, so the topic is changed to the Shadows.
€œThey move around a lot,€ Hewlit says. €œRandom searching won€™t find them, but maybe you don€™t need to look. I heard a big deal was going down at twelve tomorrow afternoon, in Misty€™s garage.€
€œNever heard of it.€
€œYou wouldn€™t have, it shut down not long after it opened up. The usual drill, bad placement, incompetent owner, didn€™t properly research the market. However, the Shadows have been known to hang out there from time to time.€

Sorry Scott and Martyn, you posted while I was nearly done with the update. If it helps, the internet wouldnt have had any new info on it anyway.

I vote we all go to HQ and listen to what Mephistopheles has found out.

Also, until the meeting rolls around tomorrow afternoon, whos up for a little training? :proud:
