Clara just looks dumbfounded at the impertinence of the elf Konnichiwa , watashi wa boke-elf sensei desu, hajimimashite. again giving a slight bow hinting on disdain for his status although all of this might be lost on the likes of him.. oh well Baka wa Shinanakya naoranai neh she says while turning on a polite face as much as she can endure.

Blurr sighs relief seeing the tattooed elf isn't dead, but when he immediately becomes confrontational he says calmly as he can manage. These two just laid you out. Only reason you're conscious is cause of the doc here. I'd suggest you go inside buy yourself a drink and forget this whole thing. Reaching into a pocket he pulls out a cheap cred stick and offers it to the man. Here you can even have it on me.

Elizibeth knows when something glows.. something bad is going to happen. Same in the matrix, as it is in real life. But rather than panic, she slowly turns and begins slowly starting to walk back to where she was standing when the fight happened, keeping an eye on her surroundings.

Wilder tightens up subconsciously at the sight of three hell hounds. As fun as it was putting an uppity dandelion eater in his place, Wilder wasn't about to go and tangle with three paracritters unless he absolutely had to. He quickly pinged his commcode to Aki and the good doctor. If they accepted his communicae, he'd send them a message warning about what he saw.

<<One of these two elves here has some friends of the fire breathing, canine variety. Best play it cool from here on out, chummers. Name's Wilder, by the way.>>

"I have no idea what you just said, but you have a target on your back from here on out."

Pushing past Blurr, the elf begins running toward the Daisy Chain with the silver ram amulet over his neck dangling in the air. 

The elf with the chromed eye takes a look at all five of you. 

"Follow me.  Mr. Johnson awaits within."

Turning around he enters the gate and as the sound of a heavy trio of growls comes from within.  The hell hounds back away if you choose to enter through the gate.

Blurr rolls his eyes as the racist heads into the bar, pocketing the credstick. Turning back to big guy What no introductions?. He then switches on his low-light vision on his glasses to take a look into the dark park. http://orokos.com/roll/181370

He give a mental command to the bug in the sky to begin recording and return to his apartment if under threat.

Blurr waits a moment not particularly wanting Aki or Wilder behind him.

"You can call me Red." replied the woman, who turned back around now the racist elf had left and began to follow the cyberelf. Clearly this was the guy for the job, and clearly she was to follow him. She gives Bear a look to see if he was to follow or not.

Shiawase has probably painted a bigger target on my back one more splash of paint makes no difference... Baka-elf... now, to business. Thought Clara as the elf turned towards the Daisy Chain.

The invitation inside was definitely not the most reassuring Shikata ga nai neh she thought to herself.

 Earing the others introduce themselves Clara made a polity bow, one used when unsure of the others social standing, some things are truly ingrained during childhood, nature versus nurture has more often than not intrigued Clara, while she hated some of the company political struggles, its social norms had been ingrained into her, not until they became second nature because they where truly part of her nature even if it was a pavlovian response.

You can call me Akagitsune, hajimimashite
said Clara before stepping through the gate.

Wilder strode into the park with apparent confidence. "Nice poochies," Wilder said dryly to the hell hounds as they backed away. Trained hell hounds proved the Johnson had some serious clout... and as near as he could tell, a show of force was sort of traditional at these things. Keeping his low-light filters on, Wilder also booted up his simrig, recording the proceedings with his cybereyes. He hadn't been a runner for long, but this was a trick he learned early; recording the initial meet was always useful when the team was planning what to do immediately afterwards.

Once inside the park, Wilder looked to the 'wared up elf for further direction.

Laughing Bear shrugs at Red and follows Wilder wordlessly into the 'park', keeping his senses alert. He tries to ignore the hellhounds, but has a hard time maintaining nonchalance. The last time he faced such critters was not ... pleasant.

The elf with the chromed eyes turns his head back to view if all five of the Aki, Blurr, Wilder, Red, and Bear were following.  He continued forward as each of them entered through the gate.

Surrounding them was densely vegetated park, or more like a forest with one light brown dirt road which deeper into the area.  Surrounding them were giant plush green oak trees and bushes in the shapes of square hedges, one that you would find near a giant mansion in the countryside. 

The walk lasted for five minutes.  For each minute the characters traveled down the path and following the chromed elf, they saw another pair of red eyes viewing them from the bushes.  They also the felt the presence of the three hell-hounds at the gate following them.  Each minute, each of the red eyes they would view would join the hell-hound trio from the gate, until eight in total were following them from a distance.  Two and a half minutes into the walk, they came across a brightly light Victorian England type lamp post that illuminated the area like a firefly amongst a cornfield.  The lamppost greatly resembled that off the one from the old CS Lewis stories in Narnia.



The lamppost split the path into four direction, bit the chromed elf kept going forward.  Eventually them came across what appeared to be a two story old brick built church.  The walls of the old church were covered in moss and ivory.

In front of the church, sitting in a giant moss and ivy covered throne was an elf with closely cropped brown hair, black Armani suit, and a golden earing dangling from one of his ears.  On top of one of the arm rests was a Fairlight Excaliber Cyberdeck.  Also next to the elf sitting on the throne was a holographic projector which had a image of four individuals playing in a band.  He shut-off the images as the runners approached.

Flanking the elf in the throne were two other elves dressed in black trenchcoats.  They had chromed eyes just like the elf who met them at the gate.  They were armed with assault rifles and merely look at all of you as you approach.  It was the elf sitting in the throne who spoke.

"Thank you for attending this meeting.  My name is Mr. Johnson.  I would like to hire the five of you to eliminate a specific target in the Seattle Metroplex area.  The payment for this task is 75,000 nuyen, all to be dispersed on a single platinum cred-stick.  Further details will be provided if you choose to select this task.  All I will tell you at the moment is that you are not being hired to kill a dragon." 

You can feel the presence of the 8 hell hounds growling from behind you, and the glare of the three elven street samurai who protected the Johnson.  It is at this time that you notice that the elven street samurai are almost identical representations of each other.

Looking at the same looking and to Mr. Johnson, Clara is unable to stop thinking that something might be off in this situation.

To kill someone... is this what it takes? to take any well paid jobs to gather enough resources?!?

Konichiwa Johnson-sama bowing in a respectful manner Clara continues assuming its not a dragon nor any children or innocent, how much are you offering Johnson-sama?

"Seventy-five thousand on a certified platinum credstick."  Although stoic and placid, Aki gets the feeling that he is being sincere with his offer and description of the mission, that there is an altruism factor to the mission.

Clara was never a coldblooded killer, truth be told she was far from being one, but she was not squeamish about it. In fact, the first time it happened to her it had been a mistake, a wanna be mugger too far into a kamikaze trip, there are situations where the expression 'shikata ga nai' fits like a glove.

I am in Johnson-Osama, but I cannot speak for the others she said in a non nonchalant manner while nodding to the other runners.

Elizibeth glaces at the street pole. How quaint she thought to herself, as she recognizes it rather quickly with her knowledge of literature. So, not a dragon. But like a dragon no doubt. she replies to the elf. Otherwise the distinction of not killing a dragon would have never needed to be, or you really are sending us to kill a dragon. Considering the land we are in, are you perhaps sendings us off to kill a lion? she watches around her as careful as she could, more at home in the matrix than here in the streets.
