*Jeckle looks at Patriot, and for a long moment says nothing but does a few adjustments with the aid of a small readout unit and then closes the seam back up. finally sits back and puts the tools and the reader away and raises an eyebrow.
'with my brother away and the fact that none of you are my size except maybe Tiger, i don't think the fact that burned skin and muscles need to be strained by running for my life should have any merit on what i wear or carry. yeah i got caught in a fire. it killed my parents when i was 5, my brother got thrown out ot the vehicle. i won't go into details, but hey, thats life, right? this unit gives my legs a bit more power for running, jumping and landing. figured we'd need the extra help at times.

Khris knew he'd struck a nerve with Patriot. " Whatever you say, lapdog. Thats' why Alexander puts you in charge, because you do exactly what your told by whoever holds your reigns." He replied condesendingly. He leaned to his side to look under the table at Jeckle's legs. He sat up and shrugged. " We've all got secrets from one another. Unless they're gonna interfere, who cares?"

Patriot
Looking at Jeckle, Patriot nods in understanding. "So long as they are an enhancement and not a means to overcome a disability." Looking to Shroud. "Alexander puts me in charge because ass clowns like you can't be counted on to get the job done alone. You want to pad your pockets then do it on your own time. It's as simple as that." He looks at everyone. "That goes for everybody. If you've got something personal to settle while we're here, then put it on the back burner. We're here to put this Minotaur down and bring down his organization. That's it. Once that is taken care of, then we can look into the extras."

[Tiger]
She looks at the Magician, "So tell me about this ball of senses. How long does it last? Does it have any limits on how far it can go from your body, or is it like astral projection? Can the ball be seen easily, or is it sneaky? That kind of thing." She looks at the Magician, interested to see how useful the spell is.

*sits back and says nothing. this is just another in a long list of people that assume she's not up to snuff. as she sits there, she removes one of her boots and then picks it up to check the sole and then feels about on the inside of the lining .. and smiles as the 4 inch deadly blade 'sniks' out and takes the time to examine the blade for any kind of nicks and then smirks as its still fairly sharp and deadly.
*then flipping the boot about examines the heel and then with a push and a twist on one part slides the top open and removes some of the contents to set on the table. some of the small containers hold a liquid, another holds a light blue or a dark green powder. Jeckle continues to empty out the various contents of the boot. the side supports come out and show about 2 throwing knives, and some lock picking tools.

Khris watches Jeckle reveal her toys with mild amusement, but his comment was directed at Patriot as he stood up. " Funny, seems to me I've got a perfect , if a little messy, record with Alexander, and any sidejobs are get handled on extraction, not during the mission. Glancing at Tiger's attention on Magician, he stood up and started for the door. " Fine, what are we waiting for. Let's go find this bar." He grumbled. As he passed Dante, he sputtered," Don't be callin home to say hi, at least without lapdog's permission first."

*Jeckle now takes the other boot off and proceeds to do the same there. this time though, there is a small firearm made of some material not metal with 2 shots in the heel of the boot.
'don't have a lot of memory metal, but i do have a few things that can be hidden. i have a few other things and tricks up the sleeves. just let me know what kind of thing you want and i may actually have it. shroud? ..' *pauses to look up briefly before looking down after tossing two items his way* 'if you plan on using a patch? .. try a gas tank. they blow and the vehicle is scrap and shrapnel. on metal works the best but if you want a delay, touch the pen to it get your distance and then click it three times. that will give you a range of 75 feet easy and about 10 seconds. good for a distraction, they'll stop to look for the sniper. one of these will hide the scent if they have dogs. slam it to the ground, and don't breath in for 5 seconds. not much, just what i got right now. watch yer 6, bro ... '
*continues for a couple of seconds and then shakes the head 'sorry, habit there. no offense' *then continues with the resettlement of 'toys' in the heels once again and saying nothing more. the silence stretches out from her, as she continues on in her own mind

Magician smiles as both Tiger and Patriot take an interest in his powers... well, one power at least.
"The ball is about the size of a softball and has a bluish glow to it. Once I create it my senses leave my body and inhabit the orb. Maximum range is around one mile. If I'm careful I can move it without being seen. Like I said, my senses inhabit the ball so my body is defenseless until I can return. I can keep the sensory sphere active as long as I need to, though it is vulnerable to attacks," Magician says. "It's not like astral projection, though it is similar in many ways, I guess. I'm not very familiar with astral projection."

Patriot and Shroud head out of the hotel being cautious of anyone who might take an interest in their activities. Getting a cab is simple as a few are lined up outside of the hotel. So far, no one seems to concerned with the pair's movements.
Following the plan, the pair end up just outside of the Javarta district, where their hotel is located. The cab took the pair to the Kilgore district. As he drove the driver made some small talk, but nothing suspcious. As he made his way down the highway, he made sure to point out that on the north side of I-109 was the worst parts of town. He highly recommended that they stay on the south side of the highway.
Having checked out an appropriate drop-off point a few miles from the club, the taxi driver delivers the pair to a moderate nightclub, the Silver Vein, probably the best in the district, which isn't saying much. The club is apparently named after a specialty drink, but the pair decide it isn't worth the time to go inside.
After the cab leaves, Patriot and Shroud begin the five mile trek through the streets. The closer they get to the location of the club, the worse the neighborhood becomes. The buildings are replaced by stout warehouese, many abandoned. A few low income apartment buildings speck the district and the gate-covered entrances to small grocery stores and other small businesses are the only signs of occupation. Not surprisingly, only a few people are out on the streets and most don't appear to be legally employed. Whether it's their demeanor or a different reason entirely, no one bothers the pair.
A little while later, the pair stand less than a block away from the club. The two-story building is non-descript and the only indication of use is a few people standing at the door and a small neon sign on the second floor. The sign says Beneath Hades with neon flames licking the bottom of the letters. One large, native American man stands at the door checking ID's and making idle chat with a couple men at the door.
One building, about two blocks back, has a good vantage point of the club and is probably the best bet for watching the building. The building across the street, possibly an abandoned office building, would also provide a good spot, though it's rather close.
As the pair get closer, they can here the sound of dance music coming from inside. The windows appear to have been painted black. The large man at the door is dressed in a white t-shirt and jeans. He stands about 6' 5" tall and has long black hair in a pony tail. They can also see a hand written sign next to the door specifically warning against the use of powers inside the club which could injure or endanger any of the occupants.
When Patriot and Shroud get close enough, the man focuses on them. Staring at them, he stands to his full height making sure they can see how big he really is and says, "Can I help you gentlemen? This isn't really a tourist site."

*finally gets the two boots repacked, and then slips them on. she then seems to pull at a zipper under one wrist and opens the sleeve to the mid upper arm spot. taking various cloth pouches and other items off there, setting them on the table and then starts to work once again. the mind working out several problems at once, but the hands doing the work.
*looks up at the others in the room and comments. 'food out of the question then? .. no food delivery or something like that?' *then the fact that she's partly on pause shows by the much slower moving hands.

[Tiger]
Still talking to the Magician, “Astral projection is a way for a mage, or a psychic, or even some martial artists to leave their bodies and exist in the astral plane where they can observe normal time and space without interacting with it. Its basically entering another dimension, albeit a limited one.” Tiger explains.
“So your magic sphere is vulnerable to attacks? Does that mean you could be hurt or die if someone shoots it?” She asks curiously.
Hearing Jeckle’s comment about food, “I ordered drinks for each room. There are two restaurants and a nice bar in the hotel, as well as a very expensive and not very excellent room service selection. Alexander said he would cover room and board, but I’m certain room service wasn’t what he had in mind.”
“By the way Jeckle, I think I will try Shroud’s suggestion. If you have any small explosives, I’d like a few low key ones- for opening bolted doors, safety glass, bursting tires- that sort of thing. I brought my own of the bring the house down variety.”

*nods at Tiger's words, and then thinks a bit. 'think you'll want the 'Tiny Tots'. they're the ones used for squibs. put two or more together for a bigger blowout. they'll stick to pretty much anything' *then pullsout another pen, this one more a laser like type* 'i'll reconfig them to detonate with this as the trigger, or you can'
*sets down the baggie of what look like ball bearings and a plain metal 'clickie' pen. 'would love to see if i cant get areading off you some time there Magician, buti'm hungry. think i'll head downstairs for now and get something to eat. not to worry, i'll keep alow profile, most don't pay attention to me as it is' *stands up and zips up the sleeve after the reshuffle of things*

Thinking things over as he hears the conversation going on around him and the two leave he says to Tiger, "You know, there is a bar in Brisby Flats, by the name of Cover Charge. I got a friend, that we could probably find there. Last I talked to him, he was in acquisitions. He should be able to get us anything we need, including parts for you to build anything you want Jeckle.
"Until I hear otherwise, your in charge Tiger, so that's why I am putting it to you and not those two fools," he says motioning towards the door indicating the two that left.
"If we all head to Brisby Flats, it might throw off anyone who focus' on them and the bar they headed to. Besides, Roga will probably have some information for us."

*looks at Dante, and then nods once. then pauses to look over the shoulder at Tiger, then states 'i'll be in my room for about another 5 minutes, then i'm headed downstairs for a meal' *moves to the door, and then opens it before heading towards her room.
*once there, pauses to take the long coat off and then unzips the liner and turns the coat inside out, and then re-zips it. the different colored coat, raising the leg extenders about an inch and finally undoing the hair clip, lets the hair down to settle about the chin and shoulders. 'can't really change the face and the burn, yet. that will be what pegs me .. maybe i should just do the room service after all. nah .. i need salad and other stuff. i wonder if i'm really gonna be of any help for this job?' *then finally looks about and presses a button, and the pants change color, from black to a light jean look.

Patriot
He sizes Tribe up briefly and smirks. "Good thing we're not tourists then." He shakes his head. "I had heard that this was a safe place. Did I hear wrong?"
