Ri smiled as she made her suggestion, fingers tapping away happily as she began opening up windows searching for the spa and St. Anthony's. Moving across the room on her swivel chair, her notebook on her lap, she stopped before Kundiman mumbling, "I've moved it to next week, is it enough?"
Not hearing the response she wanted, Ri finally looked up from her keyboard, her nose suddenly meeting the roughness of the folder. Embarrassed and certain she looked like a strawberry, she took the folder and opening it with one hand, began tapping away with the other. She listened in with one ear, read the folder and began searching out the victim's file as well.
At the name Bungie, Ri lowered her folder an itch, her other hand grew still above her keyboard. "Will you be going fast, Sara?" At her teammates' excited face, Ri guessed the answer was a positive. Tapping at her keys again, she smiled. Speed would be fun, she was going to have to wear her pants though. A skirt wasn't exactly made for flying, no matter how short it was.
At the sound of the door banging, Ri looked up with a squeak. What the hell? Ri listened to the man, growing annoyed at his arrogant tone but deciding not to mind it. Poor Seth. She half-listened to the two new comers' words while her hands' speed double as she began looking up their visitors' files. They were decidedly locked up tight...she was going to enjoy breaking it down.

Dressed in a nun's habit, Ri looked down at herself and made sure her notebook was still attached to her hip. Holding Kundiman as if she were consoling her, they entered St. Anthony's.
"Why do I have to be this character?" Kundiman murmured beside her. Ri just smiled in a condescending manner.
"Because you look the part." And that much was true. Earlier on at the agency, after having divested the inquisitor of his hammer and armor, and making he and his squire dress more like normal people, they finally came up with a plan. Seth and Noelle were sent to infiltrate the police department's morgue to check on the body. Sara (and herself to be honest) was disappointed to find that she was not allowed to use Bungie and was waiting outside. Marky was busy searching for similar cases. And Ballog...was, well, Ballog and had left while she was hacking into the Vatican. Kundiman was a surprise when she came out earlier without make-up. A first for the team. She looked like a teenager, hence the teenage-mother-helped-by-Ri-the-nun plan. How she came to be the nun was due to the inspiration of the vatican brothers' coming.
"I could've been the nun," Kundiman said.
Ri raised her brow at her. "Right," she said before turning to smile at the woman who came to meet them. She explained how she came to help the unfortunate girl she was hugging. The woman nodded and lead them to a wide room with several cots and small beds placed in neat rows. Ri left Kundiman on a bed while she began asking the woman about the recent killing. Kundiman knew what to do so Ri followed the woman to her office.
