[color=6ecff6][b]Alpha[/b][/color] and [color=f49ac2][b]Alien Angel[/b][/color] Peterson Estates Passenger Island, Castleburg Status: "Aborted" mission. Alpha (Outside estate from front entrance.) Alien Angel (Nearby. Exact location unknown.) __________ Alpha didn't take long to leave the moment Angelia had said to immediately "abort mission". Pretending to have what "felt" like a stomach bug, he pretended to show himself out of the estate but put a call in that he was doing so out of illness. His "employer", codenamed "Roboto" for whatever reason, soon found his way to the main entrance looking for him. Sure enough, he saw him off on the side of the building near the front door on the right side of the estate leaning on the building wall. After a brief talk, Roboto then decided to just let Coyote just watch things from outside but that his "payday" would drop for not taking better care of himself from this. Thankfully, "Coyote" had said that he had a bad sandwich from the local deli shop before the event thus to explain his "illness". "Oh good. For a sec, I thought it was the food we were serving that did this", he had said. Luckily, there was a report that Mr. Peterson was on the move again and Roboto had to head back inside to keep tabs on the rest of security movements around him. He promised though to at least bring some water and wine for him later though as sort of a "consolation". Alpha had decided to just wait things out. If he left now, it would look suspicious and after what Angelia had briefly told him as he was heading outside, it wouldn't be wise to disrupt...whatever "op" was taking place here. But Alpha had a hunch...for one...he briefly caught sight of a man he thought was Hero One's "Blast" but dared not report his presence...actually, he figured his presence was necessary since he did have a "following" when it came to merchandise and other related items. His presence was most likely be view as a courtesy more than anything. As he was just resting on the ground in a sitting position with his back to the building behind him, his earbud came to life. [color=f49ac2]"It's me...sorry about that..."[/color] [color=6ecff6]"Sit Rep."[/color] [color=f49ac2]"Yeah the chico that planted said bug was no chico...when I tried to warn him off, he...basically shot me down [i]cerrar[/i]...I'll leave out the long details but based on the chat...can't prove it...but I just tried to stand up to Hero One's [i]"cerebro de cerebros"[/i] Wiseman."[/color] Alpha didn't show any emotion but deep down, he was actually surprised. Angelia had told him that ICOSA were in town and, most likely, were doing "surprise" inspections on Hero One. No doubt another one of their "attempts" to either shut down Hero One or at the very least, remove Hugo Powers from his position as "Director". All the more reason for them to do this mission now since Angelia had figured Hero One would be too busy trying to keep up a "proper image" of the organization. And yet they themselves were actually risking this...even Alpha knew that this was all sorts of "risky"...the sort of thing that he and Angelia would do but unlike Hero One, "Vigilantes" don't have to worry about such "red tape"...and yet despite that... [color=f49ac2]"...listen, he threatened both of us...he knows your real name and-"[/color] [color=6ecff6]"Let him threaten me. This is the best he's getting. I'm not going back inside but I'm staying here in this position."[/color] [color=f49ac2]"...Alpha...this guy is dangerous...I can't get ANYTHING on him even with the Meta Hack...he has home turf advantage here."[/color] [color=6ecff6]"...and he clearly isn't smart...one thing you can never prepare for...the individual called Murphy Law."[/color] There was a long pause on the line on that statement. [color=f49ac2]"...[i]ay dios mío[/i] of course you also have the stick up there good like he does..."[/color] [color=6ecff6]"...if this is indeed a Hero One op, then we let them. But if the situation suddenly changes...well he can come after us himself if he wishes but I'm not abandoning proper hero's...even if we are "criminals" to them..."[/color] [color=f49ac2]"...this coming from someone "fed up" with the system..."[/color] [color=6ecff6]"...I abandoned my old team once for you...I don't want a repeat bad memory..."[/color] [color=f49ac2]"...[i]Mi mala[/i] sorry sorry...but I get it...we wait then..."[/color] [color=6ecff6]"We let them work Angelia but let's be "Plan B". Wait out here out of the way of everything and let things play out. If it goes well, we leave...and if Wiseman calls you, tell him to call me."[/color] [color=f49ac2]"[i]Si Si[/i]. Don't say I didn't warn you about him though."[/color]
