[spoiler]First off, looking back over my notes I never actually brought my car to the hotel; the meet was on the tenth floor, so we weren't going to need a car bomb. We walked from the Lukas to Elysium, which means I have no idea how I got out of there. In retrospect, then, I either walked out, hopped on public transport, or got picked up by Drain (or Lone Star
).[/spoiler]
After returning to Frost's palace, Dante receives a message from J.
"Drek! So J. is out of the game for now, whoever he is, and whoever he works for. Fine, let them rot; if I survive this I can always go after them later...After waiting for midnight, Dante changes the colour of the Hyundai to a matte dark green and sets a new generic license plate, then carefully makes his way towards his apartment, doubling back and checking the mirrors and the surrounding area often. He circles around the apartment once or twice to find a spot where he won't be spotted, ending up parking a block away. He gets out wearing the chameleon suit, sneaks to the back of his building, and climbs the fire escape to his next door neighbours apartment. Actively on the lookout for threats in thermografic view and using the ultrawideband radar to look for tech inside, he makes his way into his apartment.
Once inside, he quickly locates the combat load vest containing most of the gear he was provided with and slips it on, then grabs the monofilament sword in it's hardened scabbard and throws it over his shoulder, pommel down ready to be drawn. Not wanting to hang around to be found, he sneaks out the same way he came in, makes his way back to the car, then drives around for a bit making sure to once again check for tails and taking evasive action.
Once back at Frost's place, he settles in offers Frost assistance in sending translated messages (as a show of respect) to the Yakuza and Russians, then gets ready to discuss options while waiting for feedback from the interested parties.
