(Quest)The Devil's Hand casino:part 2
| >upon returning to the slots area E overhears a conversation between two people
>a waitress
>and a man in his mid twenties or early thirties.
>he is wearing a flashy white tux and Fedora
"t-the bill sir."
"what?!All that?!! Damn that girl can eat!"
>the waitress bows in a panic
"i-im sorry sir s-she-"
"no need to apologize, heres the cash.
I wonder what this girl is like?"
"s-she-"
"no dont tell me i want to find out myself"
"y-yes sir"
>the waitress bows and scurries off
| >>303154
"Great. I'll trail the waitress when she goes to take it."
>Jhensen explains, and begins to follow the waitress at a distance.
(Rolled a 13)
| >After finishing "Cherry & GALs" and two more Sugar Rushes, Garrett pays, stands up, and starts looking for other places to search. He brought a decent amount of money, so he reaches in under his suit, and pulls out three credsticks that he puts in his pocket. He walks over to the gambling area.
| >>303218
>you only get a glimpse of this
"s-she-"
"no dont tell me i want to find out myself"
"y-yes sir"
>the waitress bows and scurries off
>unlike garrett and E you do not see the man
>>303258
>you see more or less the same thing as E but of course at a different angle
| >Garrett looks around, and notices E. He then approaches her rather quickly, but not too fast.
"Hi. I believe you are one of the people in our little assassin group. Should we kill him right now?"
| >Garrett said this in a quiet and stealthy way, so only E and possibly one other person could hear it.
| >>303324
"W-We can.."
> E glances to him, taking a second before looking back at the man in the white tux.
"B-But we've got a g-g-gun. W-We just need b-bullets and g-gun p-powder."
> She keeps a sharp eye on >>303181
| >Wendy eagerly partakes in the food, maintaining a dignified matter. Making sure she is 100 percent in charecter
| >>303459
>Garrett looks over at where the man was, but he's gone. He turns back to E.
"I don't think our lack of weapon would have mattered. I sat on a silencer though, so I think that will be useful for the gun building."
>Garrett hands E the silencer he found, and walks to see if there's any good games to play.
| >>303489
>Jhensen sighs, and heads to the bathroom, where he takes a stall. Once the coast is clean, he takes off his jacket and rolls up his left sleeve, his prosthetics arm shows. Inside it, he takes out of of the fiberwire tendons bundles, and takes a single, long, wire. He puts everything back together, minus a wire and 2 handles, and makes himself a garrote.
>"Now I'm ready."
>He leaves the bathroom, and returns to Wendy's side, giving her a tap on the foot.
| >>303812
>Under the table, he hands over the garrote. He leans in and whispers.
"For when your up and close. Round the neck from the back, and use your knee to kick and hold his body high. I'm sure a super soldier would manage."
| "I can certainly. Very wise. I was right for working with you"
>She slides it into a pocket in her dress
"Shall we track him down?"
| "No need to rush the job. Let's just take our time. We can't split up too much, people will begin to suspect things."
>Jhensen explains.
| "Very well. I was suggesting we go together but we should take things slow."
>Wendy takes a few more bites of food
"Were you hungry at all?
| "Sure am, ma'am. Is it ok if I order?"
>Jhensen slips back in to charechter.
| "Very well. I will allow it this once since it would be a pain if you complained all night. Just don't take up my time"
>Wendy does as well, looking rather annoyed as she hands over the menu
| >Jhensen sheepishly takes the menu, and quickly orders a quick bite, still scanning the room.
"Thank you, ma'am."
| >>303830
>your food is delivered with utmost care
>candle walks into the room and takes a seat in the same table as wendy
"so how is the food dear sister?"
| "Decent. It barely satisfys me."
>Wendy finishes the rest of the food and takes a sip of water
| >>303833
"oh phoo
I knew this trip would be a waste of time..."
>she says while tapping the table
>.-.. . -.-. .... .- -. -.-. . / .. ... / -.-. .- .-.. .-.. .. -. --. / -- . . .--. / -... .- -.-. -.- / ..- .--. / .. -. / - .... . / -- .- .. -. / .... .- .-.. .-.. / .-- .... . -. / .-. . .- -.. -.--
| "Not neccessarily. We haven't taken part of all the amenities yet. Hopefully it won't be a complete waste"
>She scoffs, tapping on the table
>--- -.- .- -.-- / .-- . / ... .... --- ..- .-.. -.. / -... . / - .... . .-. . / ... .... --- .-. - .-.. -.--
| >>303842
"oh very well."
>she gives a dazzling smile
"im just happy my darling little sister finally ventured out of the manor for once.
Tata"
>she makes her exit
>turning a few heads while doing so
| >>303838
"Are you done? I don't want to be at this table all night"
>She glares at Jhenson, keeping to her charecter
| "Yes ma'am. Sorry ma'am. Where shall we head to?"
>Jhensen stands up.
| "Let's look over what they offer. I am sure there was a list back at the main lobby"
>She begins to walk off
| "I'm sure there is something worth your while, ma'am."
>Jhensen follows Wendy closely.
| >>303811
Garrett walks up to the blackjack table to try winning some money. When the current round ends and the next one begins, he bets 1500 zenny.
| >>303899
"No luck so far but it seems he is aware of me being here. Did you prehaps schedule a meet up? Either way he wants me to come and find him. He wants to be found so it shoyldn't be too hard. He probrbaly left me some clues. How are things on your end?"
>Wendy whispers, facing away from him
| >>303902
"no i do not recall scheduling anything.
Then again people could have heard about the real loretta
you wouldn't know where to get gunpowder would you?"
>he says while looking at his phone
>>303916
>you draw a 6
| >>303921
"It's going to be awkward if the real deal shows up. Gunpowder I have no clue. Most modern weapons don't need it. Obly place I could think of is maybe in storage. There are plenty of other uses for gunpowder other than firing a weapon such as for effects for a stage show."
| >>303964
>you have 7 and an ace while house shows an ace
>>303998
"well do either of you at least know where he is?"
| >>304105
"I think that's a question for Jhenson. I had him follow the waitress as she went to hand him the bill"
>She smiles, amused at the thought
| >>304236
"well its a start...
Hmmm...
I dont think anyone checked the pool and second floot yet.
Supposedly the second floor houses the entertainment so who knows?
I need to stick around here while i work on something.l
>he nods and walks back into the broom closet
| >>304251
"Very well. Then I want to take a dip in the pool. No complaints."
>Wendy huffs in a haughty manner before heading to the second floor
| >>304264 >>304299
>the pool deck is a rather impressive sight
>a large gleaming blue body of water encompasses a very large area the afternoon light causing it to shine like diamonds in the night
>many of the more attractive guest roam around brandtini in hand conversing about whatever rich people thing they would talk about
>near the entrance is a counter for rental swimwear
| (Wendy ment Entertainment then the pool but oh well this works too and is more halarious)
>Wendy walks over to the rental swimwear counter and surveys her options
| >>304313
"Yes. That one please."
>Wendy picks out what can only be described as a wet suit, covering most of her arms and part of hee thighs, a rather simple looking one.
| >Wendy quickly gets changed. She had made sure to get one to cover all the scaring across her body. One look at the scar on her back would definately give her away. She steps out of the changing room in her swimsuit and gets in the pool
| (8 -.-)
| (I think its the bot I am using. I am going to use an app instead. Okay... I got a 16)
| >Wendy looks under the table, searching for the source
| (Walks over and looks I should say)
| >>304400
>after some investigating you find a metallic container stashed inside thr umbrella stand
| >Wendy looks inside the container
| >>304411
>inside is a pitch black powder
>with that scent there is no doubt about it, its gunpowder
>there seems to be enough for some bullets or an IED
>perhaps there is a teammate that can use it for something
| >Wendy puts the lid on the canister abd walks over to Jhenson. She non chalently slips it to him with all the skill of a veteren agent
"We found what he needs"
>She whispers before getting in the pool again and swiming across it easily, doing a few laps.
| >>304421
>Jhensen puts it away in to his jacket, in to which the canister disappears in to.
"Yes ma'am."
| >Having won back what he lost, Garrett walks over to the slots machine.
| >>304710
>After abit, Wendy gets out and gets dressed.
"Let's go. Keep up"
>She snaps as she goes to the main foyer
| >>304788
>whatever you bet you just lost
(forgot to say, the win condition is simple the numbers on all three of your rolls need to match)
| >>304822
"oh this one"
>he recognizes the canister
"this is the one i hid in the pool right?
OKokokok i should have a gun ready by the time one of you guys ID the target.
That means you haven't taken a look at the second floor yet right?
I haven't heard from the others yet, so all i can do is get to work.
Good luck"
>he withdraws to the maintenance closet
| >>304789
(I can understand that much.)
>After loosing 1500 zenny, Garrett decides to go search for the target. Well, at least partially. He goes back to the bar, sits down, and orders a sugar rush. Hopefully the white drug guy walks past so he can murder him, though it's very unlikely.
| >>304874
(wow)
>a drunken henchman passes by rambling drunken slurs about his boss
"[ineligible]machego [ineligible]bitch ma whife [incoherent]"
>he passes out rather close to you
>in his pocket is a pistol and it looks like he wont wake up any time soon
| (Holy shit I didn't realize I was gonna be gone so long. Any chance I could catch up? -E)
| (Alright, thank you.)
> E makes her way back to the last location Cyrus was in.
| >>305235
"oh good.
Wendy came by with some powder so here you go."
>he hands over the golden P99
"i think it should be find to go waving that thing around as long as you dont go shooting anyone."
| >>305239
"A-Alright."
> She checks to see if the silencer she was handed will connect with it.
"D-Do any of t-the others h-have M-Ma-machego's lo-location?"
| "Let's go enjoy some entertainment"
>Wendy quickly walks off to look for any signs of machego on her way
| >>305268
>on your way to wherever you are going you hear chatter among the casinos other patrons
>from what you gather it seems that the bar on the second floor is pretty famous
| >>304879
>Garrett looks at the man for a bit before he quickly takes the gun and puts in under his shirt, hiding it inside his body.
>He finishes his drink while reading some more. He then pays for the drink, and goes to find the others.
|
| >>305424 >>305314
(i just realized i was supposed to respond to this)
>your paths converge at the stairwell
| >>306189
>Garrett, now having found the others, starts talking.
"I stole some drunk guys gun. Do you have any idea of where the target is?"
(If I'm not back for a while, just assume I followed Wendy and co. I know that might make it worse for everyone if we're spotted and people find out we're all fucked or something, but idk.)
| (bump)
| (That was a sexy bump.)
| (That was a sexy bump.)
| >>306205
"Not a clue. We are looking for him now. As long as you can keep your mouth shut, you can follow us"
>Wendy sighs as she progress up the stairs
| Wtf
| >>306842
"Keep my mouth shut. Am I talking too much?"
>Garrett follows the others while reading some more doujins.
| >>306941
"Not in particular but we wanna to try to speak about it as little as possible. Your job right now is to attend to my every need"
>She says, slowly slipping back into character
| >>307504
"Ah. I get you. Do you have anything you want me to call you by? Also, if we see him, should I just shoot?"
>He whispers the last part.
| >>307529
"No!"
>She hisses quietly
"Have you never done this before? We don't want them to know who did it. You screw this up I am not apart of this at all. If you don't know how to handle this, hand your gun over to Jhenson and leave. This isn't for the faint hearted"
| >upon reaching the second floor you see a long half hall half hallway
>various patrons wander around intent on sampling the casinos many amenities
>you see a:
>entertainment hall
>a bar
>and a game lounge
| >Wendy heads over to the bar
| >Garrett follows Wendy to the bar.
| >>308698 >>308678
>the second floor bar is way more impressive then the resto-bar on the first
>many of the wealthier patrons have gathered to the area to have a drink of top shelf alcohol
>among the bustling crowds you see the target
>with him are his private guards
>as well as the casino guards patrolling the area
>together you count at least 10 people each armed with a rifle or shotgun and full combat armour
| >Wendy walks over to Machego
"I was expecting more of a challenge of finding you, how disappointing"
>She scoffs
| >>308737
>he lowers his sunglasses
"yeah sorry little missy but who are you?"
>he says with an eyebrow raised
| >>308737
>he lowers his sunglasses
"yeah sorry little missy but who are you?"
>he says with an eyebrow raised
| "Loretta Valentine. Don't tell me your that clueless?"
>She sneers
"Maybe it was a waste of my time to come out here"
| >>308753
"woah got a fire dontcha?
I like that haha!
Still i thought you had black hair...and was taller...*sniker*"
>he downs a gut punch in one gulp
So. What do i have the pleasure of meeting a heiress to valer corp RnD to?"
| >>308756
"Don't demean me"
>She spat venomously
"I thought I would meet the man who so kindly paid for my meal. Though, I am unimpressed by the food, but what can you expect from simple casino food."
| >>308760
"ha well-"
>he begins to flirt
>perhaps you hear a guard whisper to another
"dang, boss is at it again"
"when is he not?"
| >>308765
>Wendy indulges him, occasionally flirting back with a tinge of superiority, commited to her charecter
| >Garrett is still reading his hentai, but he does take a good look at the target and his guards.
| >>308778
"oho? How about i treat you to a drink?"
>he suggests
>some more guard chatter
"oh shit shes actually into him"
"aw no baby what it is you doin?hes a horrible man to have"
"probably just another gold digger"
"you sure its not the other way around?
>>308779
"*blech*what is that smell? You fuckin fart or somthin?"
"it was probably the newbie"
| >>308789
(I guess I forgot to mention, but when in public Garrett always covers up his smell, so I guess it was the newbie.)
| >>308798
(whooops)
>>308815
>the bartender takes your order and serves you the drink
>you seem machego spike it with a roofie when he thinks your not looking
>he does not know you saw though
| >>308829
"A sugar rush please."
>Garrett notices the drugging in the corner of his eye, but says nothing. He doesn't want to intervene.
| >Garrett grabs the sugar rush, and takes a sip. The sweetness! The fruitiness! The girliness! It tastes delicious, and brings him joy. He finishes reading his current hentai, puts it away, and pulls out a Nekopara doujin which he then starts reading.
| >>308829
>Wendy fearlessly takes a small sip, Her body having been conditoned over the years to be immune to minor drugs and poisons.
"Slightly better than the food"
>She comments
| (9 I am fucked)
| >>308915
(and the min needed to pass was 10.
Congrats.)
>all of a sudden your body feels heavy and hot
>your mind is a blur of lewd thoughts
>your breathing grows tiresome and weak
| >Garrett looks over at Wendy and rolls his eyes. She fucking drank it, and it obviously worked. God damn it.
"Well, fuck. I'm sorry mister, but could you please not? This is a public place. Raping should be reserved for private dungeons, or at least apartments."
| (Aaaaaahhh)
>The drug must have been more complex then Wendy thought. She tugs on Jhenson's sleeve, signaling him to interveene
| >>308930
"i dont know what your talkin about man"
>dude has 5 armed guards. Probably a good idea not to oppose him
| >>308943
"oh thats not good.
Here, take another sip.
It'll make you feel better"
>for some strange reason, you feel drawn to the roofied drink
>you should drink it
>you *want* to drink it
>you *need* to drink it
| >Garrett looks at the scene unfolding in front of home in sheer awe. How the fuck is a guy like this able to do anything with being instantly murdered? Probably guards.
"Sir, you are starting to test my patience."
| (*him)
| "No... I think I just need to go lie down for a bit... I might have to head home early"
| >>308956
"i really dont know what chu talkn bout bro"
>>308960
"aww cmon dont be like that.
Sure you dont wanna stay?"
| >Garrett is staring intensely at the target. Would it really be that bad to just shoot him? Wasn't there some inside guy who could fuck with the cameras or something? Or it could be made to look like self defence.
| >>308963
"Maybe if I felt better soon... Do you know somewhere quiet I could relax at for abit?"
>Wendy continues to play her part, taping lightly on the table
>.-.. . - / .... .. -- / - .- -.- . / -- . / ... --- -- . .-- .... . .-. . / .- .-.. --- -. . -....- / .- ..-. - . .-. / ..-. --- ..- .-. / -- .. -. ..- - . ... / -.-. --- -- . / .. -. -....- / -. --- - / .- / ... . -.-. --- -. -.. / .-.. .- - . .-. -....-
| >Garrett recognises the tapping as morse code, but he does not know morse code. But something he does know, is a rapist when he sees one. Especially one as obvious as this one. He doesn't like rapists.
"Heiress, I can't allow this. Mister, this is my last warning.
| >>308983
"Well, if there's anyone up there, watching the cameras and shit, this would be a good time to stop them, freeze them, or whatever it is you are going to do!"
>Garrett starts walking farther away from the rapist, distancing himself slightly.
| (I'm dragging it out if anyone wants to intervene.)
| >Garrett hopes for some kind of change. Some sound. Some, well, something, from the cameras. But sees nothing different as he quickly looks around. Is it supposed to be like that? Would you notice anything? Surely an ally would give some sort of signal, right? They are just humans, but they also live in the shadows. They can't afford idiocy.
>Garrett realises that he should stay on the safe side. He walks back and sits down.
"I apologize!"
>He's still staring at the mob boss.
| >Wendy waits patiently for an answer to her question
| >>309008
"A suite on the fourth floor. That's good. Only the best for an heiress. I would like to help escort her, if that's ok. I'm hired as her personal body guard, and my contract states that I am not allowed to let her go anywhere without me. Yes. That includes bathrooms. It is that strict."
| >>309010
"Good. I hope it's ok if her other guard comes too. While his contact isn't as strict, when you first have one, two wouldn't change anything."
| (*contract, and yes. I am ignoring E. I don't have any excuse for why she would come.)
| >>309013
"They can come. I am a target for alot of people due to my birth. Your hospitality is much better than this casinos"
>She sneers
| >Garrett scans the room, ignoring any unwanted attention it might bring him.
| >>309051
"only the best"
>he says with a large sum of other egotistical shiz
>>309054
>well its what you would expect from a hotel room for a drug boss
>that and the bed is shaped like a heart
>and reeks of sex..
| >Wether its on purpose or from the drug, Wendy stumbles and falls
| >Garrett does not try to help. Instead he just stares at the drug man.
| (Good, and nvm.)
| "This is certainly a nice place, and I can see that this definitely isn't your first time, nor your tenth time doing this."
(Are we alone?)
| "Thank you"
>Wendy smiles warmly at him, focusing on demanding his full attention so the others can act
| (Ok. That's what I expected.)
"Is now ok?"
| >>309079
>Wendy steps closer to Machego to draw his attention away from Garrett's stupidity
"Your very kind for allowing me to rest here. I don't know how I can repay you"
(Let's wait for the others. Jhenson would definately react to Garrett saying that)
| (It was directed at everyone except for Machego. Also, I want to make it clear that the brashness is part of the character, and honestly, it's one of the reasons why I love my character.)
| (It was directed at everyone except for Machego. Also, I want to make it clear that the brashness is part of the character, and honestly, it's one of the reasons why I love my character.)
| >>309084
>he indirectly hints to sex
>yet-(unfinished someone roll d20 to see where this part goes)
| >>309092
(Thats fine. Wendy unfortunatly does not appreciate the bluntness in front of the target. She will probrbaly blame him if this fails or ends badly. I rolled a 13)
| >>309099
(*checks event list* okokok)
>yet all of a sudden there is a blackout
>all power is off and it will be a few seconds until the backup generators activate
| >Wendy quickly pulls out the Garrote that Jhenson gave her and proceeds to use it as Jhenson described on Machego
| >>309099
(That is expected, and part of the fun.)
>>309107
>Garrett trusts that Wendy used it correctly, and pulls out his own gun, and aims it at the door, ready to fend of guards.
| >>309137
>you take him by surprise and strangle him pretty bad.
>by the time the lights are out hes head
>cyrus and candle emerge through the door, five dead bodies behind them
"did it work?"
| >>309137
>you take him by surprise and strangle him pretty bad.
>by the time the lights are out hes head
>cyrus and candle emerge through the door, five dead bodies behind them
"did it work?"
| "Pretty sure. Though there were some *complications*"
>She glances at Garrett
"So how are we getting out?"
| >Garrett puts his gun back in himself, and while he does take the hint, he doesn't respond to it.
"We could jump."
>While this is a joke, the humour is lost through his monotone voice and expression, and it's not even a good joke to begin with.
| >>309148
"Thats a horrible idea"
>he says jokingly
>>309147
"cameras were dealt with, we can just walk out.
Also compli-oh my.
You got roofied didnt you?"
| >candle inspects a nearby table
"Flunitrazepam...oh dear she was..
Dont worry i should be able to detox you when we get to lechances place"
| >>309153
>Wendy sighs
"My body is normally uneffected by roofies. Whatever kind this guy has must be something uncommon. Can we just focus on the matter at hand"
| >>309155
"*laugh* yeah lets go"
>they escape to the main hall
>although there are security patrol on alert due to the murder
(all must roll a d20)
| (6)
| (They already know? also 20 just what o.o)
| (18 boye o)
>Jhensen uses snap judgment, and devices to swoop Wendy up, in to a cradling princess carry, whispering to Wendy.
"Stuck to the roofie story, and don't fight it, it will help me."
>Jhensen begins angrely stomping towards the exit, giving the guards a stern look.
|
| (you know what, 3 outta 5, it'll do)
>>309431 >>309166
>you two get out just fine, the gaurds assuming 'loretta' just had one glass too many
>>309162
"sir, i will need to pat you down before you leave"
| >>310042
(and just like that, the guards got low rolls)
>they find nothing suspicious, just a large sum of porn
"e...your...your free to go"
| >>310042
(and just like that, the guards got low rolls)
>they find nothing suspicious, just a large sum of porn
"e...your...your free to go"
| "Thank you."
>Garrett continues after the others.
| >>309891
"You gonna feel up a kid suffering from Rohypnol overdose? Or are you going to let me through?"
>Jhensen parcticly overshadows the two, almost leaning over them.
| >>310161
(I guess we can just assume that he gives them death stares anyway, but ignore the talking. Still jetlagged to bits.)
| >a different limo arives and drives the group back to the safehouse
>upon arrival cyrus pays everyone and candle detoxes wendy
"well that worked."
| (Shall we get back to the roleplaying? I believe we have passed this section, so could the story continue?)
| (nvm)
| >Garrett changes back to his normal clothes, picks up his guns, and puts them back into his side.
"Yeah. It did."
| "It went decently, didn't even need the guns."
>Jhensen turns to Wendy.
"Will you be ok?"
| "I'll make it..."
>Wendy sighs
"I think I am going to be more particular about who I work with next time. For the record... I hope I work with you again Jhenson"
| "Well, I have gotten my pay, so I will be leaving now."
>Garrett leaves the building, puts on a jetpack, and flies home.
| >and with that, it fades to black
>(unless people want to talk to each other)
| >>310275
(Just one more thing)
"That's great and all, but can I get my wire back?"
>Jhensen holds out his hand.
| "Great. I'll send you the details for our job later. This might be bigger than I thought."
>Jhensen stuffs the wire in to his breast pocket, and leaves.
