- Zorro has posed:
It was nightime in Williamsburg and Zorro was riding Tornado down the dark, damp streets of the neighborhood. It had recently rained, as evidenced by the still dripping street lights and the puddles all over the streets and sidewalks. Zorro was down in this neighborhood for one reason, to disrupt a potentially profitable deal for the Gomez Cartel, a very ruthless, infamous Cartel from Central America. They had been on Zorro's list for a long time, but he could not think of a way to strike at them. Now, he had a opportunity. He had heard on the grapevine that one of their operative, El Ogro, is meeting some local boys, The Asuras, for a drug deal. Zorro was going to disrupt this deal and hopefully put a small dent in the Gomez Cartel's finanaces. As he made his way to where the deal was to be done, he started to strategize ways to get to the operative and ruin the deal.
Things have been going well for you after you brutalized those Irish mobsters. The Tornadoes gave you a shining review to Hammerhead, and after doing a few more jobs for Chad and his crew, Hammerhead decided to bring you up one notch of "da ladder". This lead you to The Asuras, a crew of street artists who turned into a surprisingly dangerous street gang who used images based off the Hindu Asuras as a gang logo and as intimidation. Their leader, a Indian named Ranjit has proven surprisngly reclusive. Hell, you never seen his face, he had only contacted you through cell-phone or encrypyted email. One such email lead you here tonight to Willaimsburg. You were to help oversee and protect a deal between the Asuras and the Gomez Cartel, a bloodthirsty Drug Cartel. Apprrently Ranjit does not trust the Cartel to be true to their word and has requested you to be there in case things turned screwy.
You were currently in a damp alleyway near a old factory in the center of Williamsburg. There was a briefcase of money sitting next to you locked with a combination that only Raj, the head Asura in the deal knew. Raj was currently hanging out in a black sead sitting the center of the alley looking around nervously. They were pretty far from their turf and you have heard that the gang in this hood hated crews wearing the wrong colors showing up on their turf. The three other Asuras with you however, did not seemed concerend. They were currently spray-painting a wall with their infamous Asura logo, the same logo that was on their black, sometimes paint covered t-shirts. The artists were comprised of two Indians and one Caucasian. They were laughing and joking with each other as they did their "masterpiece", which they intenended to use as a middle finger to El Banditios, the crew that claimed Williamsburg as a turf.
- Berri Sundae has posed:
To say Berri stood out amidst the Asuras was likely an understatement. In fact, without someone enforcing a uniform? Berri was likely going to stand out pretty much anywhere she didn't go out of her way not to. Not seeing her contact was a little uncomfortable, after all one could not touch the mind of a computer nor the person on the other side of it, but the money was good enough and here she was once more to deal with the Asuras and their contacts.
Despite the hour, Berri's parasol remained in hand as she followed along behind the Asura 'artists', keeping an eye out and otherwise playing the mute babysitter to the three. Ironic, since she was probably younger than all of them. Still, quality over quantity.
- Zorro has posed:
Zorro stopped his bike a few blocks away from the site of the deal and started to make his way there. As he did, he started to formulate a plan to ruin the plan to ruin the deal, He had heard about how The Banditos and how territorial they were. He was planning on spooking the Asuras into thinking the Banditos were attacking and taking advantage of the chaos to swoop in and take out the Cartel Operative and swipe the money The Asuras brought along, screwiing them both. As he got closer to the scene of the deal, he picked up a loose stone and grinned to himself.
As the three artists finished their work, they laughed and started to high-five each other while looking at their huge, almost sinister looking Mural. The Caucasian one then walks up to you and says," What do ya think Berri?"
Before you can answer however, you see a black van back up into the alley. The back of the van opens and a huge, muscular Central American man climbed out of the van follwed by two armed thugs. He looks at you and says," Where is Raj?" Raj is currently still in the sedan, too preoccupied by what appreared to be a new text to notice that the Cartel was here.
- Berri Sundae has posed:
Berri's answer wasn't going to be much more than a shrug, but there was a more immediate thing to deal with. Turning to face the van, Berri's parasol remained over her shoulder, idly spun by her fingertips in that vaneer of 'harmless' that most in this life probably wouldn't fall for. Unaware of Zorro, at least for the time being, the 'icecream' looking telepath herself just tilts her head as she regards the 'muscle man' and his thugs, looking them up and down before she lifts her hand to point out Raj and his text message. It wasn't like she could yell out to him, and she was more a 'security' than 'logistics' girl anyway.
With direction given she does step aside, but there is a curious peering into the van. She was looking for the merch' and signs of a doublecross. One can't be too careful!
- Zorro has posed:
Zorro stopped when he came to the alley with the van. This was defintley where the cartel was doing the deal. Zorro went into a more shadowy part of the area the deal was in, ending up under a winder in the factory. Zorro grinned as he lifted up his rock and tossed it at a neighboring window.
El Ogro grunts in annoyance and trudges towards the sedan and bangs on the window loudly, getting Raj's attention. As you peer inside the van, you see a carboard box, which probably contained the drugs, and a sawed-off shotgun, but no sign of a double cross. Raj climbed out of the sedan and grabbed the suitcase full of money and one of Ogro's men reached into the van and pulled out the carboard box. But, before anyone could say anyhting, a glass shattering sound was heard. The Asura's and the cartel goons pulled out their guns, with one of the Asura's saying," Shit! The Bandidos are here!"
Raj just snapped his fingers out of annoyance and a bit of anger, but one could sense fear in his eyes as he turns to you and says," Berri, you take Ravi and check out that noise!"
- Berri Sundae has posed:
Confusing, certainly. A rock shattering glass, or even glass shattering on its own was less likely to be some gang crashing the deal and more likely an accident, a prankster or indeed a distraction. Still, the jumpiness had her frowning. The last thing she needed was these idiots killing each other and forcing her to carry back one half the stuff herself. It'd probably be the money too, knowing her tastes. With a mute sigh and a nod, the Telepath makes to move towards the noise, not really pausing to see if 'Ravi' can keep up while she probes outwards with her senses.
She didn't -really- expect to see gang members thoughts about an ambush, but one could never be too careful.
- Zorro has posed:
Zorro frowned when he saw the multi-colored girl from the Penthouse approach from the alley. What were the odds of running into the same person three times in a row? Zorro then started to run into a more shadowy area of the area, hoping to avoid being spotted. Your senses would pick up on a presense fleeing to a more shadowy area of the area.
- Berri Sundae has posed:
It was a mind, a different mind from the gang members and clearly one concerning. It wasn't the bat, or one of his...but it was something distinct and that was enough to have her snapping her fingers, trying to draw Ravi's attention before pointing in the direction of the meeting, gesturing to her mouth, then her eyes and finally towards the direction of the shadows. After all, the woman couldn't talk, but she'd have to hope he got the message...and there was a little telepathic push to get the intention across: <Warn them we have an outsider skulking around.>
With that, she turns towards the shadows with her parasol in hand, she skips towards the shadowed area of the lurker, trying to narrow in on Zorro's location.
- Zorro has posed:
Ravi nodded and started to rush back towards the group. As Berri drew closer to where Zorro was, he let out a small swear. It seemed like that she could see him in the darkness. He briefly considered fleeing again, but thought differently once he rememebered that the girl seemed to know where he was even in complete darkness. So, he preceedes to pull out his rapier and picks up a handful of dirt from the ground. When Berri gets close enough, Zorro emerges from the shadows and tosses the dirt into her yes. He then tries to rush into another shadowy area.
- Berri Sundae has posed:
Dirt into the eyes was a scoundrel's trick, but that didn't mean it wasn't an effective one! The sudden casting was impressive and accurate...and also blocked by the sudden pivoting of the parasol in front of her fact. Twirling the seemingly mundane object past her with her parry, she twists and lashes out, clearly trying to go for a trip of the literally dashing rogue before pivoting and holding her 'weapon' up threateningly. Sneaky, but unblinded, the Rapier gave him away just enough!
- Zorro has posed:
Berri manages to trip up Zorro. But, as he falls to the ground, he sticks his arms out and does quite a impressive flip back onto his feet. He then glares and points his rapier at Berri and says to her," I do not wish to harm you child. Please, flee before i do have to."
- Berri Sundae has posed:
A blink, a tilt of her head. There's a little expression that looks almost like confusion, but it's confusion as a mask to assess her foe as she'd been taught. The choice of such a weapon over modern options suggested skill or insanity, but neither was exclusive. That recovery? It too suggested he was trained and practiced at facing foes, or at least escaping them. Snapping her parasol closed with an audible noise, there's a moment when she twirls the thing almost experimentally...then she's upon him, lashing out and swinging the blunt weapon with impressive speed.
She was working to slow him down, maybe capture him it seemed. No lethal blades just yet!
- Zorro has posed:
Zorro weaved back and forth, and even leapt back a few times trying to avoid Berri's attacks. Je then let out a hiss of pain as he was whacked in the arm with the umbrella. He then scowled at the girl nad, in a surprise move, tried to trip her by sweeping his foot under her feet.
