[Accidental Video]

[drjackal]

[The video turned on. It seems to be outside and late at night. Clouds seem to cover what little moonlight there was. There are various bodies strewn about the side of a road. If one looks close, streaks of blood can be seen on their backs in the form of a J. Off to the side is an over turned vehicle that has smoke coming out of it. The video then focused on a tall figure dressed in a black trench coat. With a gloved hand the figure placed a wide brimmed hat on his head.]

“What a pity, this was starting to get a little interesting. I had hoped that you would be a worthy fight…Tch. It’s always the same.”

[He then stepped over to one of the bodies and grabbed a heavy briefcase from the hand of a limp form.]

“I’m sure it’s owner will be happy to receive this. After all, it is my job to make sure it safely arrives at it destination.”

[There’s a soft chuckle before the video feed ends.]

Yes, and it seems to be pretty promising! The Get Backers appeared to not be interested.

[poison_puppet]

Now that does sound promising.

[drjackal]

I'm glad to hear we're on the same page!

[poison_puppet]

Has she set up a date for the meeting yet?

[drjackal]

Tomorrow afternoon, sufficient?

[poison_puppet]

Its good for me. Any idea what the competition might be?

[drjackal]

Familiar with the Protector who goes by the name The Undead?

[poison_puppet]

...ergh. I've heard of him. He's given the GetBackers a run for their money.

But if he breaths, then he's still susceptible to perfumes.

[drjackal]

He's the reason why they turned down the case. I, myself, have been hoping for some time to run into him.

We'll find a flaw that they overlooked.

[poison_puppet]

That's just like you. I just hope we survive and satisfy our client.

[drjackal]

We'll do just fine, Lady Poison. I look forward to the lovely challenge this will bring.

[poison_puppet]

Heh. I look forward to seeing Mr. Undead kick your butt. That would satisfy the both of us, right?

[drjackal]

[There's a slight twitch of his hand and Akabane releases a scalpel. He then turns around and throws it into one of the corpses. It was more of a warning toward Himiko that he was not amused by her comment.]

I've been doing my research on our undead friend. The Get Backers have a tendency...to not fully think things through and rely on improvising more.

I'm quite confident that we can handle this task.

[poison_puppet]

[She ignores his actions...at least she doesn't comment on them. But her face hardens and she returns back to business rather than jibes.]

That does describe them pretty well. Do you think you can get through his skin? He was able to take a lightning bolt...perhaps I should increase the dosage on most of my perfumes.

[drjackal]

That would be a wise decision. I am not sure how much damage my scalpels will cause. If I had the time I would have done some adjusting to them. Currently they are set to work against the Get Backers. I may have to use the sword.

[poison_puppet]

Do you know if he has any help? The both of us might be able to manage him, but if there are others...that might cause problems.

[drjackal]

I suspect he will have people with him. I doubt they are as strong as he is.

[poison_puppet]

Alright. I'll take care of them, if you can distract the Undead.

[drjackal]

Shouldn't be a problem! I'll see you at our usual meeting place.

[poison_puppet]

Alright! Show up on time for once, will you?
