[b]From behind, footsteps were heard as Scorch plopped down next to her in his hunter armour [/b]
"For a thief, you're not good at thieving."
English
-
"And you're not very good at making an entrance." The thief replied, turning around and uncloaked, still clutching the teddy bear.
-
"If I wanted to make an entrance, you'd be dead."
-
"And of that would happen, you'd be dead too." She replies, walking over to Scorch. "So...who's the big bad guy, here? At least want to know your name before you try to kill me." She replies, a smile coming to her face.
-
[b]He extended a hand but remained seated with his legs over the edge of the building.[/b] "Scorch. What's your name?"
-
"Kasumi. I'm guessing you're wondering why I'm here, yes?" She asks, shaking his hand.
-
"Nah. I don't really give a shit. I just showed up yesterday."
-
"Me too. Was searching for the Alliance. Anyone from the damn Alliance. Supposedly had the Deimos and Invictus groups here. Can't exactly say I could blame them for landing here. Looks beautiful." Kasumi had replied, before turning to Scorch.
-
"You said Invictus? What do ya want with them?"
-
"Just something about Cerberus. Why, you know them?" She asks.
-
"I'm one of their crew members so ya I know them."
-
"Well then, tell them to meet me here. Also, you friend, Noble..." Kasumi had said to Scorch, pulling out her omni-tool, showing her picture of Noble and Miranda. "Took that using some drone I bought off the black market. The girl's an Alliance operative here on Tatakai. She's Miranda Lawson. Cute...yet cold girl. Pissed her off every time I called her 'Ice Queen'" "If you want more money, however...you could help me further." She replied.
-
"Wait why the hell are you spying on the two of them?"
-
"Just for the 'lols'. At least, I think that's what kids in the 21st century said back then." She had said, before continuing on. "I'll meet you at the outpost...unless you want me to follow you?" [spoiler]-Escort Kasumi -(Timeskip) (Won't affect anything, just asking.)[/spoiler]
-
"I'll meet you there. The crew is still here resupplying after all."
-
She nods, walking to where the Invictus crew were at. [spoiler]Timeskip?[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Yee[/spoiler] [b]About an hour or so later, the Invictus landed by the alliance camp in its usual spot, with the crew filing out [/b]
-
Kasumi was still cloaked, not wanting to gain any attention. She waited for Scorch to walk up to the Invictus crew.
-
[b]sure enough, Scorch clambered down from the ramp and sat down on it while the others scattered throughout the camp [/b]
-
She tapped Scorch lightly on the shoulder to know it was Kasumi. Her M-9 Tempest SMG laid on her locks on her waist.
-
"We're clear. What did you want to talk about?"
-
"There's a Batarian cell. Their names are the Brother's Men. They want revenge for the Skyllian Blitz, AND for the Alpha Relay incident. So...they're going to do multiple things. One of which is to crash a meteorite straight into the human colony of Terra Nova." Kasumi explained. "I came here to get you guys to help stop it."
-
"Alright. What's the pay look like?" [spoiler]Ducking Hunters [/spoiler]
-
She basically b****slapped him for that. "Even I'm not that heartless. But you'll pick up a few creds along the way." She responds.
-
"Ow..." [b]He rubbed his face[/b] "Gotta make a living don't i? Whatever. Yeah im sure the others would love to help."
-
"Sure." She responds, walking up to the Invictus itself, and made her way inside.
