Hank looks under the table at Garabina's feet and smirks.

Hank scans the lobby for his group and moves over towards them once spotting them. "Sorry I'm late, what've I missed?"
Hank cleans his guns one at a time while keeping the others loaded and ready.
"Okay. So you got attacked by a hot female vampire, wearing $1000 shoes, who robbed a museum, after what we can guess are her goons, shot the place up and caused 'something'" Looks at Officer Vasquez then back at Anu. "to explode, killing most of the people in the museum. Does that about sum it up?"
Hank lets go as Anu pulls away and then turns to whoever has the dagger. "Put the dagger away so we can get Anu to make sense!"
Hank grabs Anu by the collar of his shirt and smacks him a few times. "Quit your rambling and talk some sense!"
She looks slightly amused at Hank's reply. "If a Natural Gas line had ignited here, none of us would be standing here chatting, so let's be thankful it wasn't that, eh?" "It doesn't need to have been a gas line leak. Somehow, there could be a gas pocket beneath the museum and something ignited it. You asked a question about what could flash burn at 3000 degrees, so I gave my best guess." Hank shrugs and follows the group to the alley.
Hank thinks a moment on the Officers question then says: "Natural gas could do it, depending on the mix in the pipelines. Mind if I take a look at the boiler room?"
See's Jon and Anu arrive at the same time Officer Vasquez finally comes out to meet him. "We went to get Anu some food and fresh cloths and decided it wouldn't be a bad idea to come back and see if we could be of some kind of assistance."
Stands around outside wondering how long it'll be before someone inside tells Officer Vasquez he's out here.
Hank finally arrives back at the Museum and notices it's been roped off since their departure. "Officer Vasquez! It's Hank Monroe! I just thought I'd stop back by and see if I can be of any use."
Finishes his food and drink and dumps the trash. "Anu, why don't you and Jon go get you some new clothes. There's a Wal-mart a few blocks that direction." points to the nearest Wal-mart "I'm gonna head back to the museum to see if I can check things out."
Hank lifts his drink like giving a toast. "Here's to natural justice." Waits a moment to see if anyone else raises their drink too.
"Hehe. Club owner, yeah, that's original."
Hank digs into his jambalaya and okra while listening to Anu and then answers Jon's question. "Could be. I was only involved with the transport of drugs and money side of his operation. I do know the one house of his I've been inside has museum quality stuff. I recall him having an Aztec ceremonial knife." Resumes eating.
Takes a moment to check the menu then steps up to order after Anu and Jon. "I'd like an order of your hot jambalaya and a double order of fried okra."
"Thanks Mr. Simon. Speaking of food, I know a nice little place just a few blocks over, they should be open still." Hank checks his watch.
Hank rolls up to the 4th floor of the parking garage and waits for Jon and Anu to arrive. "So, what's the game plan?"
Hank reaches his bike, hops on, starts her up, and heads out to see if anything's changed while away for a few minutes he was gone. Before speaking, he kills his bike so people don't have to yell. "So, we still taking Anu to the hospital?" Hank get's caught up with events. Speaks to Officer Vasquez: "Okay, so, where am I staying since I'm not allowed to go home?"
"Thanks for the offer but I'll follow the ambulance." Hank heads to the alley his bike is in.
"Officer, would it be acceptable to you if I followed them on my bike?" Thumbs to the alley he parked it in earlier.
"Dahlia and Ferrano.. Hank, would either of those names ring a bell with some of your contacts you think?" Thinks a moment. "Dahlia, not a clue. Ferrano was the guy throwing this shindig if I recall correctly."
Hank nods when Jon motions to him. Speaks after Jon finishes. "Yes Ma'am. Unfortunately I'm new, so I don't have any credentials as of yet. This guy" head nod to Anu "is a member of our team, who I haven't been formally introduced to, chased after one of the terrorists. When Jon and I managed to catch up to him he'd been knocked unconscious with no sign of the terrorist or whatever they stole. By the way, my name is Hank Monroe, and you are?" Hank gives Officer Vasquez a little grin. Spoiler:
"Damn! Damn!" looks at Jon. "If I get locked up Cortez will make sure I don't see sunrise. How're we gonna get outta this?"
"After we get this guy in your car I'm heading for my bike. I'll call you tomorrow to arrange another meet."
"Hank, I think we need to get this guy some medical attention. We need to make our way back to my car, and avoid the police." "Agreed." Helps Jon carry Kiag to his car.
runs up to Jon and Kiag and begins searching for the tote bag.
Runs to catch up to Jon. "Damn, I really gotta get in better shape."
Runs along with Jon after the guy chasing the woman, and says with a slight grin: "If I'm going to keep doing all this running I may just sell my bike." Holsters his pistol before reaching the fence.
Hank looks around quickly for a good spot to take cover and then takes up a kneeling position behind the corner of a building and draws one of his Makarovs and takes aim. Before firing, he says to Jon, "I'm aiming for the one on the left, and no, I don't have a concealed carry permit." Fires at the thug on the left's torso after seeing Jon has taken up a firing position as well.
Jon sees the black van next to the restaurant that he and Hank had recently vacated, but is too far away to discern it's occupants. On the opposite side of the street, he sees Anu looking on with interest.Noticing Anu, begin walking in his direction, scanning back and forth between him and the van. "Hank? Were you followed? or anyone else know about our meeting?" Hank's following Jon while keeping an eye out behind them. "Not that I noticed, but Cortez as rats everywhere. Why do you ask?"
Hank gives a quick look at Jon and then runs off in the direction of the gunshot.
"I can make sure you get paid if your information is valid, are you ready to go yet? I think we have some people to find." "Sounds good to me." Hank dumps his stuff in a trashcan and heads for the side door. "My bike is parked in the alley, where we headed?"
"Not really, but how does your brother work into this, what happened to him?" "Cortez sent him on a run. Robbie didn't come back. I figure he's dead and figure Cortez is at fault. I have no evidence, and no way of finding any on my own. So, you get me a job, we take down Cortez, eventually, I find out what happened to my brother."
Hank gives Jon a condensed version of what his life has been like up to this point. "Do you require details?"
"I know the location and layout of two of his storehouses, one residence, and which docks are owned openly, and secretly, by them. Now, what do I want for this info? Even though he was a major prick, I want to know what happened to my brother. Also, I wouldn't mind a better job than I have now."
Hank shrugs at Jon's refusal of the two tacos and begins eating them as they're the last two at the table. "Cortez. I used to work for him."
Hank nods slightly to Jon.
Hank casually pushes the chair across from him out with his foot for Jon to sit on all the while continuing to eat.
o7 Ready!
Okay, how's it look boss?That's an awful lot of hardware for someone with Resources 1 and no Contacts/Allies in the underworld. If you want to reflect your character's organized crime ties, you'll need some Merits to back it up. Otherwise, you'll need to ditch the kevlar vest and the forged CCW (unless you want it to be a really s#!*ty forgery that any cop would know was fake). understood, making changes now
