"Well. I looked at the files on my phone on the way here. I've been thinking of what we should do, and I think we should go check out a nightclub downtown. It's called "Wisky Dix." Very subtle, right? Fact is, the Shadow could be there. We go there, find him and get some answers no matter what."

"No matter what... Ominous. I like it." Royal said with a chuckle, his armour forming over his body
-
"Damn right. So you just wanna charge in there and shoot the place up? Or do you wanna play this tactically?" He asked Roy as he nodded his head to his suit of armour.
-
"We're gonna play this tactically. No point in exposing ourselves, or intentions." Royal said, stopping for a moment as he looked at a wall
-
"So that's why you are gunna wear that suit and draw the attention off yourself right?" Joseph asked him sarcastically now as the two made their way down Main Street, out of the snowy area.
-
"Precisely. We want some attention, but too much attention. Ya feel me?"
-
[spoiler]sorry for slow replies![/spoiler] "...what so the shadow knows who to talk to?" He asked Roy. They neared a street named "Sphinx street" and turned down it. The buildings were smaller and looked older here with a dark red design that gave off a musty scent.
-
[spoiler]You good [/spoiler] "You could say it's something like that I suppose, yes. Maybe. Possibly. I dunno." Roy fell silent
-
"You actually don't have a plan do you?" Joseph said to him with a grin. Roy could see the sign "whisky dix" Just down the street. It had a purple neon sign on the front of its old building with its name and a woman doing a...interesting pose.
-
"I'm not one that usually has a plan, no." Roy said with a chuckle.
-
"Well. Looks like we'll just have to improvise." Joseph replied as they walked up the door. A large, dark skinned bouncer stood outside the door and raised his hand to stop the two. "Who are you two? And what's up with the armour guy?" The man asked them in a low voice. "I'm Roland. I'm a tourist of different worlds. This is my bodyguard Ben Colton." Joseph lied as he gestured to Royal. "Uh-huh. You got any weapons on you?" He asked both of them. "Ya. We do." He told him honestly. "Gunna need to take those. The guard can keep his fancy armour though. Even if he won't need it. Unless he causes trouble that is."
-
Royal took the sword off his back, handing in over to the bodyguard. He quickly followed up by drawing a hand gun, also handing it over
-
Jospeh took his revolver off his side and handed it to the bouncer, as well as the large knife he had on his side. The bouncer took the weapons and opened the wall on the right where a drawer/container was revealed. He put everything inside and closed it. "Alright. You're clear to go. No touching the girls though, got it?" He told them.
-
"I'm Asexual. I don't know what girls are." Royal said, crossing his arms over his chest
-
"Uh...what?" The bouncer asked him. Confused.
-
"An Asexual. Someone who doesn't care for any race, Gender, or otherwise things that make up a person. People who just don't give a shit"
-
"Like worms." Joseph said to the man. "Oh. Got it." He understood the simple explanation. "Well, on with you then." The bouncer opened the door, and Joseph stood aside for Roy to go first. He was his bodyguard after all....
-
Royal took a step in, but stopped, talk a look around. "Looks clear." He said, in a very official manner as if taking it seriously before continuing inside
-
"Right. Good work, Ben." Joseph said as he stepped in. There was a staircase that lead down and branched to the right. The bouncer closed the door. Joseph turned to Roy. "What was that?" He asked him.
-
"What was what, sir? Just looking out for your safety is all." Royal said, slowly breaking out into a grin
-
"You're hilarious Benjamin. You...asexual...guard guy." Jospeh commented as he began his way down the stairs.
-
"Thank you, sir. Happy to serve." Royal said, going down ahead of Joseph
-
Royal entered the dark, orange lit bar. There were tables packed with people everywhere and Jazz played through the speakers positioned all around the low ceiling room. There was a catwalk, where...many, women, had taken the floor. There was a bar on the right with shelves of drinks behind it all lit with neon lights to make a fantastically cool effect. On the north wall, there seemed to be a door with a window beside it. Blinds were down on the window so one couldn't see in. "Oh god I really hope Lilly didn't end up coming here." Joseph said. "They wouldn't let a minor in here right?"
-
"I mean ... Most likely not? Unless she bribed her way in of course."
-
"Ugh...I don't want to think about that. Anyways, I'm going to the bar. Maybe I can find some leads on em. Wanna tail along?"
-
"As your security guard, it seems I have to. Don't you think? [i]Boss."[/i] He emphasized the word boss, as he moved towards the bar
