[A retro-futuristic black car drives through the city and eventually comes to where the group and the spaceship are. It idles on the city limits, then turns off. Anyone listening closely might here some smooth jazz coming from the car.]
I hate the rain. Always have, always will. Guess I have to wait it out. Don't wanna get my suit wet if I don't have to.

Also shows other stuff, like what this guy sounds like.
Dace straightened up his cloak to act more like a poncho and put on a wide brimmed to stop most of the rain from getting on his body. He went up to the car that was parked there and knocked on the window. "Howdy pardner! What brings ya to dese parts?"
You notice a black car coming to a stop close by, and instinctively you grab at your blaster. You wonder if you should take off now and let whoever is in the car just try to follow you, but you don't want to leave the group members who have scattered behind.
Hmm. This guy doesn't sound like the locals. Wonder what he's doing here. I roll down my window a bit and look at the guy.
"I'm looking for someone. You haven't seen a samurai around here have you?"

Fayetteville, North Carolina. 11:23PM
Two men sat in a small office, sat on either side of a desk. "So, you say you can heal people? Would you mind giving me a demonstration?" one asked, holding out his hand, which had a small cut on the thumb.
[color=990099]"Certainly, Pastor."[/color] The other man stood up to his full height of 6'3", and took the first man's hand in his own. There was a small flash of light, and the cut faded to a tiny scar.
"Impressive... I assume you can do more than just little cuts?"
[color=990099]"Of course. If that is all, may I take my leave?"[/color]
"Yes. I'll contact you soon about the position."
The second man turned and left silently.

Samus and Riko reached the bounty shop, seeing the faceless person still standing behind the counter.

Samus and Riko reached the bounty shop, seeing the faceless person still standing behind the counter.
Tavish went back to the abandoned warehouse where Ross was first seen and began using any scraps of metal that were laying around to make more bombs.
Samus went over to the faceless woman, gesturing to Riko. "Excuse me. I belive this woman has some questions."
Tavish would find the bag of stolen things.
[hr]
The faceless person turned their attention to Riko. [color=cc6699]"I was just wondering if you could not tell people what we do and where we go, without contacting us first. A woman approached our group, claiming she got our location from information she got here, and it ended badly."[/color]
The faceless person nodded. "I'll pass the message along to the others. Is there anything else the two of you need?"

"Well you didn't have to say it so aggressively, geez." Sophia raised her hands in a surrendering fashion. "All I mean is people can surprise you, and don't always jump on them if they're a bit different. [sub]That being said that medic guy is probably insane...[/sub] but my point still stands."
When it started raining, Sophia didn't react as harshly, partially because she was already somewhat wet from the explosion of the lake. "I thought I..." Sophia said as she looked in her bag. "Damn, I must have left it in the inn..." Sophia stated sadly as she too went under the awning. "Apparently I don't have my umbrella here... Figures I wouldn't notice until I need it right..?"

"White guy, black hair, uses a sword. Wearing a white robe kind of thing." I explain to the guy. Hope I can finally get a lead. Otherwise this trail's gone compleatly cold.
Mara Triangle, Kenya - 13:40PM
Over the course of 37 minutes, the bug had steathily and systematically killed one-third of the rangers in the conservancy, eiter dragging the bodies off into trees or burrying it on the spot. After this point, the rangers left alive became aware of their colgegues disappearing and radioed for help. Part of the remaining ranger stayed inside a U-shaped building on the main compound, while others stayed with tourist inside a nearby lodge. They didn't want to worry the tourist by saying there was a probable mass murderer nearby, instead saying they had heard reports of a pride of lions being closer to the camp then usual, and that it was best to stay inside until they were driven off.
The bug wasn't paticularly pleased by this development, and moved away from the conservancy, knowing it couldn't kill the rangers when so many of them stayed together in one place, and making a mind of it to finish what it started another time. Moving away, not eating any of the rangers it had killed, it retrieved its bag and left the area, moving on foot to stay hidden. Once it moved out of the foliage, the bug ran for a couple of meters, then jumped up and took to the skies, flying back towards the Mara river.
While flying, the bug saw a peragrine falcon swoop down at a smaller bird, snatching it out of the air with its talons. Impressed by the falcon's speed, the bug decided to catch the falcon. Finding it lacked the flying speed to keep up with it in the air, the bug descended and touched down on the ground, continuing the persuit on foot. The bug could run far faster then it could fly, and knew the falcon had to land some time, and with the level terrain, it didn't have much troube keeping track of it.
After a while of following, the bug saw the falcon land in a tree, where it began eating the bird it had caught. Moving to the other side of the tree to approach in the falcon's blind spot, the bug stopped and took out its first rifle. Taking aim, and shooting the falcon. With the falcon falling out of the tree, dead, the bug stowed its rifle away again, and approached it. Picking the falcon it, the bug bit it in three parts, swallowing each induvidual part hole, then licking up the blood that was spilled. When done, the bug considdered eating the bird the falcon had caught too, but decided against it, flying off and moving on.

Code:
"I've got money now, so we can see about getting some once the rain lets up.""Well, tell me about it then." I say. I doubt it's who I'm looking for, since this samurai doesn't die easily. But it's worth looking into.
