Raven continued following as best as he could, keeping a distance as far as possible. After all, if his hunch was right, his life did depend on it.

If at any time along the way, his quarry makes a stop, then he will introduce himself. But otherwise...

Meanwhile, I got a date with the man himself. Around 8 tonight. It might give someone else a chance to search his place without him being around. Whadaya say?"

Vincent holds up his hands. "Uh-uh, no burglaries for this guy. I think we've all been seen around the temple way too much today to go breaking in there tonight. We'll get Gil or Chase to do it..."

Vincent pauses for a moment. "Well, maybe we'll get one of them to do it. We should meet up with them, see what they want to do."

Vincent turns back to Bobcat. "I was actually thinking of going around and checking the bars while you were out with Kazuhito. If I know where he is there's less chance of running into him accidentally, and if the two of you are out on a hot date I've got reason to go asking around about him. We have to assume that he'll hear about it eventually.

"How long have we got until you're supposed to meet him?"

Bobcat shrugs. "I didn't say you had to do the snooping, there are like, five of us you know," she points out. "I think Chase and Gil can earn their keep for once, huh Boss?" She throws a wink Thalessa's way.

"I'm not sure where we're going, but I can always let you know when I get there." The mechanic draws the small cell phone from her back pocket, wiggles it for emphasis.

"How long have we got until you're supposed to meet him?"

"From now until I go to meet him at eight," she tells him. "Which means I gotta go get all dolled up." She picks up her already brisk pace.

There it stood, looking every bit like the former fishing trawler it was. As soon as Chase and Gil walked up to it, they could see Vincent, Thalessa and Bobcat just arriving from the long day at the temple. Thalessa didn't look particularly happy, Bobcat looked as if she was ready to start bouncy and Vincent looked thoughtful.

On the other hand, Chase looked as cool as usual and Gil was still agitated. Behind them Raven followed carefully, still unnoticed by any of the others. They were too intent on the food that Chase had just picked up, generously for everyone since Gil had insisted upon it.

Night was definitely upon them.

OOC: THALESSA, CHASE, VINCENT, BOBCAT, RAVEN

Chase smirks as sees the others coming back from their little journey, "Yep, got us some real food for a change, not that I don't like Beef and Peppers, but good ol sashimi, with some nice wasabi... mmm mmm!"

Chase hops into a chair, and begins eating, "So you guys drag up anything useful, I mean, as far as my day went, I am surprised I am not bored to death!"

"Hey Captain, I saved you a seat right next to me, you look a little tense, maybe you need some of my special attention?" Chase grins.

"Vincent Lam, I have been looking all over for you"

Raven stepped away from the shadows of the night, bringing himself into the view of his quarry. One hand carried an old fashioned guitar case, hoisted over his shoulder, the other hung from his pocket of his long coat with a thumb. A faded old business suit could be seen beneath.

There was a subdued yet pleased look to his face, as if he had indeed been searching all over for the other. Some would have found this Chinese man's grin disturbing.

"I hope you didn't forget a certain Shen Lon who helped you out in your time of need..."

The newcomer looked at the rest appraisingly, trying to ascertain the threat levels, should the other turn his back on the favor bestowed.

 

[Byrons_Ghost]

Vincent returns Lon's gaze with a carefully neutral expression. "Shen Lon. I almost didn't recognize you with the hair. Have you joined a band now?"

His eyes flick over to Gil and Chase and he smirks. "You didn't tell me you were bringing a friend back." Vincent looks back over at Lon. "What do you want?"

 

[loxmyth]

Bobcat plops down in the seat Chase reserved for Thalessa, gave him a big grin, and then snatched a sushi roll off of his plate. Opening her mouth wide, she crammed it in, chewed ravenously, then swallowed.

"Mmm-mm," she approved, offering Chase a playful wink. "Almost as good as the Boss' bell peppers and beef!"

With the approach of the fellow who wore all black, the mechanic craned to see him, a curious frown replacing her earlier grin. "Vinnie, is this dude a friend of yours?"

 

[Tokiwong]

Chase smirks, "Any time babe," he glances to Shen Lon, "Looks like an old buddy to me, Mars seems to be full of them... any luck with chasing Junoi? Oh yeah, I got some business to handle in the morning... a race... for old times sake... think I may have a lead on the bounty... you are all invited to come watch me in my element!"

Thalessa snorted. "I didn't know you were that much of an exhibitionist in the sack, but I'm not surprised." Still she picked up the food and ate it while standing up, eyeing the newcomer suspiciously but letting Vincent handle the newcomer.

"Did you learn anything useful? Or did you spend the whole time trying to get laid, Williams."

Gil laughed with a mouthful of food, some of which spewed out and landed on Chase and Bobcat. "That last part nearly got him a bullet in the butt," he gaffawed, half choking.
