A Deadman's Memoires [Started still want to join? PM]

[djmegamike]

"Ha that's a rather blunt specialty." Speaking quietly whenever the barkeep walked past, just to ensure that he wouldn't hear, he replied, "John Doe is my nickname I suppose, long story. Its as much a real name as anything else though." To make sure he wasn't looking to suspicious he laid some money with a little extra on the table, "I'll have another one of these fabulous drinks. Whatever it may be called, it is fantastic." He turned back to the man next to him in said in a serious tone, "So, what do you know about this apparent threat to society?" Then jokingly, "You wouldn't happen to be one of them would you?"

Spoiler: OOC

Would that be a blunt specialty or a sharp one?

Gray chuckled and held his coat open a bit, revealing the knives he had along the inside of his trench coat

"It is actually a rather sharp specialty" he joked as he let his jacket fall back into place

"I was the sheriff of my town, so no I don't know anything actually. You?"

 

[fanklok]

A man who had been sitting at a table near the bar, had been looking around the bar nervously ever since Impaler had arrived, and looked completely terrified since the others have now come.

He gets up from his sit, with his head lowered and walks over to the bar right in between Impaler and John and throws a few bills on it. You can hear him mutter something that sounds like. "He wouldn't send them after me?"

Ad he made his way to the door the bartender shouted over to him. "Hey Jimmy you left me a $200 tip for two drinks." But Jimmy was already out the door.

 

[Quad08]

Gray looked over at John a smile forming on his lips

"Sounds like we'd better inform Jimmy about his tip situation, wouldn't you agree?"

 

[fanklok]

"I'd be careful about doing anything to Jimmy, he's got some scary friends." The bartender said with a warning tone. "Alot scarier then most of the folks in this place. I even heard some rumor that his friends had something to do with the Embassy attacks."

 

[djmegamike]

"Just try to see which way he is going for now, don't hurt him." Looking at the barkeep. "What friends would that be? You'll get a nice tip for the information, despite the fact you still haven't told me what the name of that drink you gave me is. Oh, and where did you hear this rumor?"

Spoiler: Jimmy

Could I tell whether or not Jimmy was a deadman?

 

[djmegamike]

He turned back to Gray, "Actually see if you can bring him back peacefully. We wouldn't want a first lead to get away now would we?"

 

[Paget]

Sheath had been listening in on the conversation taking place. It seemed like nothing more than general bar meets and greet between dirnkers until the Embassy came up.

"The embassy attacks?" he said all too loud. Realising now that several patrons were looking at him he moved over to the bar making sure his sword was hidden within the folds of his Kimono.

"Another bottle of Jack, and whatever information you care to share please. I'm Sheath, formerly known as Shepard Elwood."

 

[Quad08]

Gray got and nodded

"I'll try"

Glancing over at Sheath he nodded

"Nice to meet you Sheath, I need to go find a friend this man can fill you in"

He motioned to John and quickly left the bar, looking for any sign of Jimmy

 

[fanklok]

"They're some punk low lifes that suddenly came into a lot of money. That's where the rumor came from, people think they're being paid to help out with the crazy shit that been going on lately." The bartender answered him. "And that was a house specialty, Whiskey and Honey, you won't find anywhere else that can make it."

Spoiler: an answer

he isn't

Jimmy was walking down the street luckily he hadn't turned any corners yet.

 

[djmegamike]

"Whoa there cowboy Sheath. We are in the same boat here, possibly more than you realize. That man who ran out of the door might have friends in dangerous places. That's what we're trying to find out. So, do we know what kind of friends Jimmy keeps?"

Spoiler: ooc

Sorry if something doesn't make sense, I think we're all posting at the same time.

 

[Quad08]

Taking a deep breath, Gray ran as fast as he could after Jimmy.

Luckily, Jimmy seemed to be attempting to act casual and blend in but for a man whose past was killing people for a living, Gray never forgot a face.

 

[Paget]

"Well your friend who just left better be careful. This part of town is'nt known for being friendly, especially to ones such as us at this time."

Sheath knocked back a drink and handing over $100 asked "So who are Jimmys friends? Local or not?" Having lived in the city his whole life Sheath knew the larger gangs who worked the city. But if it was someother gang, that would be a bit more of a problem.

 

[djmegamike]

Spoiler: OOC

Ha! I just realized sending someone named the Impaler to retrieve someone peacefully might not have been the best idea

 

[fanklok]

Jimmy heard someone running behind him and took off. HE turned into an alley and tried to jump the fence in it but he slipped off and landed on his back, knocking the wind out of him.

 

[Quad08]

Gray stood over Jimmy, a smile on his face

"Hello Jimmy, I'm John Gray. Would you like to come back to the bar with me peacefully or should we do this the painful way?"

 

[djmegamike]

"Hey," John Doe exclaimed to get the other deadman's attention, "Do you think you can help my friend who ran out. Just in case he needs any help bringing him back...in one piece."

Spoiler: Tommy

I suppose I'm speaking to Tommy unless someone else wants to do it.

 

[Paget]

"Do you think you can help my friend who ran out. Just in case he needs any help bringing him back...in one piece."

Sheath finished his drink and looked at the man, trying to see who he was. Placing his glass down "We'll see." he replied and stood up making his way to the door. Upon getting outside he unfolded his Kimono so that he could reach his hilt.

 

[djmegamike]

"So then, dreadfully sorry about the distractions. Back to business. You have three hundred dollar tip on the table. Do you think you can help us with a few names?"

Spoiler: Sheath OOC

By the way, since your a 3rd gen too I believe you should be able to tell that we are deadmen too.

 

[Paget]

Spoiler

yea id assumed that, thats why he introduced himself the way he did, assuming the use of 2 names would give away that he was one.
