MREAAAOW!

[Splash! That, my friends, is the sound of one unhappy cat landing in the fountain.

Mao claws his way out, looking drenched and miserable. He shakes himself off and looks around, the fur on his back sticking out like porcupine needles. It's clear that this is no ordinary cat, even before you see his purple eyes.]

Hei?

[His voice is soft. There are too many people around for him to risk speaking louder, but if the other Contractor is around, Mao is certain he will hear.

Nothing.]


Damn it.


[some time later]

[voice]


[Wherever he is, he's cut off from the Syndicate's network. Not a good sign. Even worse, he can't find a way into whatever network exists here, except through this extremely cat-unfriendly device. He's going to have to do reconnaissance the inefficient way…once he figures out how. Keyboards weren't designed for cat paws in mind. Sigh.

But eventually he figures out how to turn on the audio function.]


Where is this place?

[Not very smooth. He's spent so long pretending to be a cat, he's no longer sure how to pretend to be human. But it's a start.]


[ooc: Action for anyone near the fountain! Keep in mind that he will pretend to be an ordinary cat, except over the network where people can't see him.]

The City works on no logic and often teaches no lessons useful for another time. You'll be facing danger regardless of preparation. [ Their professional realm comes with a certain degree of predictability. But the City's full of reckless amateurs. A Contractor's nightmare in some ways. A walk in the park in others. ]

Be careful around this particular pair. They're Satans back in their world. With some spying [ and lost temper on Hei's part ] they were able to break through my cover. But that's the extent of it. [ They still don't know he's a Contractor, or the full range of his abilities. ]This one has a tendency to spy as well. He's a vampire. He seems neutral, but he's best avoided. Be on high alert with that woman. She's dangerous. And not human. I've clashed with her often. She has abilities similar to that Contractor from MI6. That boy is a Norse God. Loki. He -- most of his companions -- have special abilities. They're friendly, but keep your guard up. [ A moment's hesitation. ] This one is a fallen angel. Affiliated with the Satans. She has a gist of what I am, and wants to start a revolution in the City. [ And to recruit Hei as a participant. ] As for her -- she's seen through most of my cover also. But she's more bored than dangerous from what I've determined. [ He's charging her for lessons in hand-to-hand combat. Yes. Really. ]
