PCMC HQ North Arctic - Intel Block G14


Jamie nodded in salute to Head Chin, it had been quite some time since she had last seen him, the last time being the Russian spacecraft case. She chuckled slightly as he pointed out her choice of outfit. Perhaps she should have changed before meeting Sean and Head Chin at Intel Block 14. Noticing he was slightly ogling her, she chose to ignore it. There was nothing wrong with a bit of harmless looking, and Jamie's outward appearance didn't exactly scream 'raging dyke'.
As Head Chin mentioned the case documents, Jamie began to look over the file, while keeping a close ear on Head Chin's briefing. Iceland. Jamie didn't know a lot about Iceland, except for the fact that it was pretty friggin cold, the capital city is Reykjavik (The things that cluttered her head from pub trivia nights was rather random), and that Iceland was one of the first countries in the world to legalise same-sex marriage. Oh, the things that pro-equality pages on Facebook had taught her.
The Doppelganger case seemed interesting, giving Jamie an instant sense of deja vu, reminding her a lot of an episode of the X-Files where there were two agents that appeared to be Mulder and Scully, but in fact were doppelgangers. Not one to extensively research every episode of the X-Files she'd seen, that was the extent of her knowledge on doppelgangers. Still, she was eager to find out more.
Wincing a little at the image of the bloodied man, she indeed was surprised to see that same man, looking perfectly fine in a photo taken after the discovery of his body. It was remarkable.
Listening intently to the information about the mirror, Jamie looked at the mirror closely. Sure, it was beautiful, almost looking antique in a way, but it also looked sinister, giving Jamie chills up and down her spine. Though she couldn't put her finger on it, something was definitely amiss.
As Head Chin's spiel continued, it became apparent as to why the mirror seemed so sinister. It was the gateway to wherever the doppelgangers came from. At least they had one in custody, though the disappearance of an agent was never pleasant. Especially considering the odds were never in the agents' favour once in an area with no communication. So the case was voluntary. As were many other cases. But that's not why Jamie was there. She had a duty, and saw no point in being an agent if she were to refuse a case. She had a duty. She was as loyal as it came, and there was no way in hell she was going to let her down. She knew it could possibly spell the end of her, but that was willing to take. It was her job, and she would do it well, whether she lived to see the end of it or not.
The room went dark momentatily, with Jamie shielding her face with her forearm as the lights snapped off, her eyes not having enough time to adjust to the blinding light filling the room. Daring to let her eyes adjust, she was finally focused after a few minutes.
Looking directly at Head Chin, she nodded.
"I accept. We need to get Lowell back"
I'll post tomorrow. Things have been crazy with work. Damn people and their coffee needs!
Zerofighter said
"20 years is a very long time. People found out about the supernatural and were very hesitant and they almost started a war but something happened and the supernatural creatures learned to live with humans." He said "The vampire wants to help the US and try to make it better."


"Well that's good" she said, smiling." Acceptance is the key."
Lily knee that because something was a but different, it didn't make it bad, though she knew humans had trouble seeing eye to eye with each other, let alone another
species.
Paranatural Countermeasures Conglomerate Headquarters — Onsite Gym


Jamie had become used to Sean's stand-offish manner, some days she even got two words from him, though today was not one. Still, he'd never gone out of his way to be rude to her, she understood this was just the way he was, and it wasn't about to change. Soon, they were joined by another in the gym, Marissa. Dressed in her leotard and sneaker heels, she looked like something out of a Lady Gaga video. Still, Jamie had to give her credit. There was no way in hell she could move like that in heels, 4 inch heels were the peak of her limits, however that was for walking, not working out.
Jamie gave her a slight smile and wave, sending a quick "hey"'her way before returning to setting up her weights. Cranking her music on her iPhone, when she worked out she liked to put herself in "the zone" with no distractions but a pumping tune, and her repetitions counting in her head. Selecting Déjà Voodoo's Brown Sabbath album, she seated herself to be ready for her tricep pull downs. Dripping her hands on the padded bars, she pulled down, counting to herself as the music blared in her ears. "1.....2....Today tomorrow Timaru
That's where I left you
Washdyke Temuka Dunsandel Rolleston Templeton Hornby Rakaia
I've been thinking about leaving this town
Saying goodbye to Caroline Bay
Since you left me how can I be happy here....10...11...12..." Jamie continued in her head as she continued the repetitions. Thinking about the song playing, she began to wonder what Timaru was like. Years ago, she'd had a housemate from New Zealand, or a Kiwi as he referred to himself as. He'd been kind enough to introduce her to some decent Kiwi music, and for that she was thankful. She soon snapped out of her mini daydream, realising she had indeed lost count.
"Damn it!" She cursed aloud, shaking her head and starting again, this time being sure not to let herself become immersed in the music.
"1....2...3....."
She got this far before feeling the vibrations of her personal terminal indicating se had a new message. Her triceps would have to wait. Sighing, she silenced the music in her ears before logging on.
Reading the message, it was a quick one. She'd become used to not knowing what to expect when a new message arrived. Sometimes it could be a full mission brief, other times a notification to appear to meet, like this one. Figuring it was best not to keep anyone waiting, she began to pack up, deciding to leave her gym gear on until after. There would always be time to change later. Besides, she had only just begun her workout, she had barely any time to break a sweat, so she wouldn't be gracing everyone with her presence by smelling like sweat.
The sound of her sneakers squeak, squeak squeaked her way along the concrete floor as she made her way to Intel Block G14 for the mission brief, her gym towel slung over her shoulder and water bottle in hand, it wasn't too far from the gym to the Intel Block. Quietly letting herself in as not to interrupt anybody, she stood quietly in the room, ready for the briefing to begin.
I'll get a post up tomorrow. I've had a really really really, ridiculously bad day.
"A vampire?" she asked, eyebrows raised. "I mean, I wouldn't have a problem with it, but I can't imagine others would have been so accepting" she said, remembering all the horrid racist things she'd heard when it had been announced there was a black president.
Awesome. And yes, I'm still here too.
Lily shook her head asDavid explained she can tell anyone. "I won't be saying anything" she said. It's not like anyone would believe her, besides, she had very little friends, a direct result of being shy and untrusting. "The one person I would tell wouldn't believe me. She's a skeptic"
"we may as well take a look" she said, smiling. After all, it wasn't every day she could see the future. Besides, she had a day off and time to kill. As long as sh beat her girlfriend home, all will be well. "Architecture-wise,. not a lot has really changed"
"Sounds good to me she said, with a smile. May as well enjoy the new surrounds. "I just can't stay too long. I need to get home and take a bath before Jamie gets home from work" she said, nodding slightly.
