Hive warfare.

"Would you like some armour and a...knifey thing?"
*I take the credits and find a cleanish looking piece of clothing to wipe the blood from my coat*

"that's called a shank...." *Pulls out a cloth/handkerchief thing and throws it at him* "clean yourself up a little"

/In my head\ She just gave me a clean cloth.......
"Thank you"
*I drop the shank and wipe the blood off, before standing and walking over to her*

You hear a siren like noise, people flooding from the market town before the arbites arrive.

"Excuse me, I was just watching your predicament from afar, and I have a interesting proposition for you two" says a man from the shadows, tall and slender, wearing a fine black suit, and a elegant walking cane.
But his face is hidden by the shadows.

*looks him up and down* "If you want me to kill someone for you its expensive" *death stare*

*looks to max* "we can either run, or have some good excuses for the arbites"

"I only ask that you listen to what I have to offer, and I wouldn't recommend staying here for long. Arbites don't like law breakers, and they are getting more and more aggressive"

"Jusging by the suit he's powerful, running won't work, I would listen to this proposition and go from there"

/in my head\ I want a suit like that!

"then lead the way... *looks to max* Coming?.... er... i never got your name?" *she upholsters her pistol and gestures to start walking* "lets get going"

He leads you to a hidden access hatch, it's passage covered by a metal grate.
"Down here, the arbites don't know of this tunnel"

"If you're playing me for a fool, i hope you like the taste of lead"

"Maximillian Erentilo *bows* though everyone just calls me Kilo" (Kee-low, like the weight)

He climbs down, his form descending into the darkness.

*knods* "good to meet you kilo" *follows down the hatch*

*follows* "You are?"

*looks up* "Akira"

When you reach the bottom, you are knee deep in running liquid, the darkness allowing no vision until he lights up his torch.
"This way, it's not good to stay down here for long" he says, advancing forward through the cramp sewer tunnels.

*nods* "A pleasure, Akira"

*after having climbed down*
/my head\ eww eww eww eww eww eww WHAT THE FUCK RANDOM GUY!!!!!?

Mercifully, you don't have to stay in the sewer system for long, as he gestures upwards, towards a access hatch.
Although, the smell of sewage has left a nauseating feeling in your stomach.

*Pulls up a scarf around her face* "The fuck man?"

"Beggars can't be choosers, if you had tried to run in the conventional way, the arbites would have found and sentenced you... and that's not good"

*gags*

OOC: thank fuck for wearing leather

*grumbles* "number of arbites i've killed you'd think different"

Ooc: you have not killed any arbites.
Hell, you havn't even killed any PDF.

OOC: but mr suit guy doesn't know that

Ooc: believe me, he does.

OOC: shes bluffing

OOC: Something tells me we have to kill him later on in the RP

"I'm sure you have, yes... I'm sure" he says with a hint of sarcasm. He climbs up the ladder towards the 'surface'

*I quickly check behind us as my slight paranoia sets in*

Only the darkness can be seen, and the sound of running water.

*I climb up*

*She pulls back the hammer* "I don't trust you much right now, thats bad for you"

"Me?"

"no, fuckwit in a suit here"

"Oh"
*I'm still holding my pistol, having never holstered it*

"Why? I have been nothing but helpful to you"

"And you still haven't said what you want" *she levels her revolver at him from hip height* "one bullet, it'll rip you in half. start talking"

"A war is coming, this vessel has been separated from the imperium for too long, the warp storms in the world's atmosphere cutting us off. Corruption, disrepair, this hiveship is falling apart from its own weight.
And I plan to profit from this"

"Now you're talking my language. when this place collapses, the best place to be will be on top"

"Exactly, you will work on my behalf, I will tell you where to go, and what to achieve"

"No, I will work with you. you will keep no part of the plan from me, we're equal... okay?"

"To a point"

"No, equal or find someone else"

okay why is the knight using a buckler?

.....because mobility?

i've tried, you cannot be mobile with a templar helm on

i ran into a tree

I'M AWAKE!!!

Ooc: not the best plan.


Ic: "you are persistent, I'll give you that much... fine, I'll see what I can do" he says, handing you a somewhat beaten data slate, large buttons and wires on its frame, and a clunky screen.
"I'll contact you on this, it also has a address on it, it'll lead you where you need to go"
