This is the plan of the Easecove factory pulled up by Mags and sent to Dark tide to give them a hand..
She seems to make a habit of this...
The 'dark night' office block
The related Bits form Ce....
The building is pretty damn featureless. A 3 stories high hollow block of concrete basically. On the same side as the door on the top level are a number of thin of frosted windows (bath rooms may be?).
At each corner is a rain water down pipe from the roof.
There seems to be no survalience out side the building other than a camera at the front door. And another covering the loading bay (which is on the right side).Attel Agony and Freeker pull up into font of the faceless factory. The sound of machinery echoing through the walls.
The Easycove logo hangs above the door, the bright pain to the sign suffering from the erosion of constant rain.Access is controlled by a buzzer and intercom system. An obvious camera twisiting to look at you as you approach the door.
A gruff voice demands "What do you want?" And then tells you to "Hang on I'll get some one."
The wait is almost five minutes and presses of the intocom reveal only static or a gruff "Hold on.He's on his way."The door is opened by a small weasely man. He stares at you obviously intimdated by the eb users. "Hi. I......." He looks back in side the door almost as if checking something then looks back at you.
Any one with any psychology abilities could tell this man is scared.
Attel reaches into his inside jacket pocket and pulls out printouts of the three people.
Mutters "God, how I hate proceedures..." Then takes a deep breath and speaks in an "official-sounding" voice;
"I-officially-request-your-cooperation-in-an-official-investigation. Anything-you-say-can-and-will-be-used-as-SLA Industries-sees-fit-to-do-with-as-it-pleases-and-perjury-is-a-punishable-off ense-and-will-be-punished-with-any-and-all-resources-that-SLAIndustries-can- bring-to-bear-against-you."
He then exhales. Next, he leans face-first toward the man, making sure that he doesn't loom over the guy and then he shoves the three printouts into the guy's face.
"So, you wanna ID these guys?" Turns to Freeker and says; "I think he does...he seems to be a real cooperative fellow...aren't you?" He turns back toward the little man.
Attel then puts his arm around the guy's shoulders...
"Look pal, help us out here...no one will blame you, you had no choice. How is a guy like you supposed to stand up to a guy like him (pointing to Freeker)? All of this loyalty rhetoric is fine for the big bruisers, but what about the little guys like us? We've got to do what we have to so we can survive. It's obvious that you're worried about something. So why don't you let us help?"He then looks to Agony;
"Do you have something for this guy's nerves? Look at him? He's almost shot to pieces. Do something for this fellow...."The guy reaches forward to take the print outs.
The shake in his hand.
He glances behind him into the building. And then says loudly "Never seen then before."
At the same time he underlines 2 phrases from the printouts with presure from his thumb nail.
"Sorry I can't help you. You'd better get about your buisness."Taking back the printouts the creases are under Darknight and Here.
He stares at you pleeding with his eyes for you to leave before something bad happens to him.
Attel then begins yelling abusively;
"Okay, you sorry piece of shit! Be that way...however, If I find out that you've been holding out on me, it's gonna be your ass! I suggest that you look to yourself...bitch!" He says as he fingers the guy in the chest, pushing him back into the door.
Attel then leads Agony and Freeker away as casually but as quickly as possible, trying to avoid drawing any more attention to them than needed.
Once he gets to a secure location, he begins cocking his pistols as he tells Agony;
"Put the call in! It's on! The little guy came through! They're holding up in the building...still I'm a bit skeptical. Best wait for backup before we go live!"
