Invasion. Gathering of Heroes (February 1930)

Vincent doesn't like the idea of being around even more police without his immunity. He thinks back to before he went back to Italy and then states in English "I wouldn't go there unless you've cleaned house because last I knew Capone had a few men in prominent positions on his payroll within your department." [You didn't think Capone always got away based on luck and instinct I hope]

"The man has a point" states Charleston pointing at Vincent with his cigar. "Capone is a pain in the ass, but he's American, whether we like it or not. My department handles international affairs, of sorts." Charleston smokes a bit. "That said I've always wanted to catch the bastard. Tell you what: I'll check your files, and if I see you have potential, and you seem to have, if you sneaked into Capone's lair, I'll get you both a new job, dedicated to bring down that gangster, and at the same time, testing some of the "toys" good people like George Wilkinson are able to create." the man shifts in his chair, leaning forward, cigar in hand, and a serious expression in his face.
 

Jasper stops mid sip of his esspresso. {Government jobs? Wow, that is they way to work. They call you up and in the mean time you ahave all of the time in the world to do whatever you want.} Jasper thinks to himself as he a small smile creeps across his face. "I will have to speak to my partner about this, give us a moment."

Jasper turns to Thomas and begins to talk in Italian. "This is the absolute best thing that can happen, it's the ace of all aces. This new job will basically give you something on the lines of immunity all that you have to do is give them your phone number. This is the best option I think and i know that I have been pulling you around for a while but this will make it worth while. I'm in Tommy, are you?" Jasper says calmly to Thomas trying to not show anything that may give Charleston any indication of how on board he is with the job offer.
 

"Yes. I believe this is our man. Anyway, I'll just finish looking here then we can go. Did you get the box from the first room? If not, we will pick it up on the way out."

Percy goes over to the other platform and has a quick look around, moving covers if necessary. He then proceeds to the door.

"Timothy. I'll defer to you expertise. But we have made a lot of noise in here. So, do we need to make sure that no one has set up an ambush before we leave?"

[sblock=OOC]Ben, Percy and the prisoner all need medical attention. Does headquarters have medical facilities?[/sblock]
 

-----Percy------

Percy goes through the room, inspecting the medical instruments. They seem like torture equipment, and most are stained with dry blood. The agent finds a notepad containing information and details about the order and characteristics, along with the results of each torture method employed. Reading the first two is enough to make the trained man's gut set upside down. Percy stores the notes, and keeps searching, but finds just a couple of personal items from the guards, and crates.
Upon opening some of the crates, he finds beer. A strange sight indeed, specially in England, where is is not quite popularized. Crate after crate, they were all filled with bottles, cans, small barrels, all of them containing beer, although some others contained bottles of diverse alcoholic drinks.
Percy asks the agents to help him and retrieves one bottle of each crate to analize.
Finishing, he is ready to go.
"I left two of the guys outside just in case sir." replies Tim.

The group goes out, and the two agents outside gives them clearance, apparently no one has heard anything. The police forces move quickly to the van and Tim drives off peacefully, until they are outside the docks, where he speeds off to the hospital. The travel is short, and Tim seems like a skilled driver. He leaves Percy Ben, agent Y235 and two of his men in the hospital. "I'll return to the base, and tell the commander to communicate with you sir." he announces before driving off.

Percy shows some credentials to the administrative of the hospital, and Ben and agent Y235 are taken to operation. Percy's wounds are taken care off as well.
A couple of hours later, Ben is resting on a bed, alongside with Y235 who remains unconscious. Ben and Percy talk about the mission and when they are getting to the part of the strange box, someone knocks the door. Percy gets to his feet, and places himself next to the door, gun in hand. "Commander Terrance Folcker, let me in." says the person from the other side.
Percy opens the door, and the commander, followed by Timothy enter the room.
"Excelent job agents. Agent Grunt here has introduced my to what he knows, but I understand you hold much more information."
 

"If you think this is best then this is what we will do. Though when they check my cridentials it will be a long list of crimes the police think I have committed. I don't know if that will help or hurt their thoughts about me." He states back to Jasper in Italian.
 

"If you think this is best then this is what we will do. Though when they check my cridentials it will be a long list of crimes the police think I have committed. I don't know if that will help or hurt their thoughts about me." He states back to Jasper in Italian.

"My thinkingis that if they are still willing to give me a job after how much I have jerked them around than I think we are safe. If they do have any problems I will tell them that your my partner and I'm not going to work with anyone else, don't worry Tommy, I am not going to leave you high and dry." Jasper continues in Italien with a small smirk on about thinking about this, he understands that this may just be a way to monitor them but he would like to see them try and find him when he doesn't want them to.
 

"Fine then. I trust you and your judgement." Vincent says to Jasper in Italian. He looks at the agents carefully. Noticing that the men have not stopped them once from speaking between themselves in Italian he begins to wonder if they can understand them.

Percy greets the commander and offers him the chair, while he sits on the foot of Ben's bed. "Right sir. I will write a full report later, meanwhile here are the highlights as I see them. Ben. Feel free to step in if I miss something important. As he enumerates each point, Percy emphasises them with his fingers.

"One. When we arrived at the first warehouse, Sir Archival was there with another man, who I did not recognise but would know if I saw him again. Shortly after we arrived, they both left together, along with the muscle.

Two. This warehouse look like it is primary used as offices. There is nothing of interest there apart from some extremely incriminating papers which I sent back to you. I don't know if you had a chance to read them but basically, Long is being a naughty boy and is involve in smuggling endangered animals and illegal substances. Not really anything we would be interested in but our friends from customs may be.


At this point Percy check his personal notebook before continuing

Three. Does N E W Y O R K C I T Y F A R M, that spells New York City Farm by the way, mean anything sir. Personnel I think it is some kind of password.

Four. The other warehouse was occupied and unfortunately we were detected. This is where things get interesting but very puzzling. The thugs who attacked us were not acting normally and to my mind they appeared to be in an hypnotic trance. Not only that but you could see them come back to normal just before they died.

Five. The thugs were actually guarding and torturing agent Y235. I have their notes here.
At this point Percy takes the notes out of his pocket and offers it to "T". "But be warned it makes disturbing reading. By the way, the doctor says he will be alright but he has not yet regained consciousness.

Six. The second warehouse had crates and crates of alcohol mostly beer. Unfortunately the crates did not have any labels, so we can't tell their origin or destination. I sent some samples back to HQ with Timothy for analysis.

Seven Timothy has some more papers he found in the second warehouse but I have not yet had a chance to look them over.

Finally, we come to this box. It was in the second warehouse in the same room as Timothy's papers. We were just going to examining it. Althought to tell you the truth, I may be being too cautious but I am very weary about opening it in crowded hospital. I suggest we take it back to HQ and examining it in the shooting gallery, were we are unlikely to do much damage if things go wrong.
 

"Fine then. I trust you and your judgement." Vincent says to Jasper in Italian. He looks at the agents carefully. Noticing that the men have not stopped them once from speaking between themselves in Italian he begins to wonder if they can understand them.

"Alright then, I think that we are going to except your offer but you already knew that didn't you." Jasper says to the government men who were staring intently at them.
