“Terminate, of course.” Alicia didn’t even hesitate or take time to weigh a second option, still smiling.
Nadya examined the target. "So where does she live? Depending on where it is, I can watch the house from a distance until I get a shot. Up a tree, on a rooftop....Doesn't matter." (Nadya is likely always going to want to go for the "shoot it from a distance" tactic. I'm sorry for the problems that might cause.)
The blonde guy sighed, 'Yes, yes, I'm sure I'll be happily calling you "big sis Beccy" before the week is out.' 'Our veterinarian is some kind of werewolf?' James asked, slightly amused, 'Suppose the cosmos does have some humour, after all.' James followed the woman's instructions, looking at the target information on the screens, before it looked like he could speak, 'Does she even know what she has? And, do we really need all of us to deal with her? She looks more like the typical Goth playing with tarot cards than a big threat to me.'
The director nods. Clearly, she doesn't have a problem with the lethal approach, though she doesn't seem to have a preference either way. "We're not sure about her current location. She fled after her sister's termination." She presses another button, and an image of an overweight man with long hair comes on screen. We believe that she's had dealings with this man, Harold Hipper, a dealer in occult artifacts, possibly to sell the book or other items to finance her escape. I want a team to infiltrate the club and interrogate Hipper, and find out what he knows about your target and the book. Afterwards, you can terminate or spare him." The director looks to James. "We believe that she knows what the artifact is, and is trying to learn its higher secrets. As for her abilities, they're being amplified, simply by having the tome in her possession, which beings me to the other part of the mission. Apart from the club team, I need a team to exterminate a group of imps summoned by Miss Sinclair, likely as a distraction attempt or as practice. The imps aren't particularly dangerous, but their natural aphrodesiacs and voracious sexual appetite make them a danger to the human population of the area. This is a straightforward mission, go into the abandoned warehouse the imps are using as a nest, and wipe them out. We'll ensure that there isn't a police response to distract you." She looks over the group. "So, we need two teams. I'll leave it to you to decide who goes on which team."
Seres listened quietly as the other people there finished introducing themselves, using the chance to observe them and learn a little about them. There was some tension between some of them, but as long as it did not interfere with their work she did not care. So that is our new boss. Nice tits – I wouldn't mind playing with them a bit – as well as with whatever she has under that skirt. Probably just a pussy, but who knows – if demons exist, then women that have both a cock and a pussy might exist as well... The former cosplayer thought as she followed the woman to the briefing room. Cute, but not really my type. Doesn't seem very dangerous at first glance, but who knows what she has learned from that book... The guy that hired me for my last job seemed like a rich nerd and not dangerous at all... then he turned out to be a demon. One can never be too careful. Seres kept quiet for now as she switched her focus from checking out the body of their new boss to the mission at hand.
“People open up to me...whether they like it not. But I can also handle myself. I’d be fine doing almost anything. I’ll just go along with what the plan of the rest.” This was also in part, due to her wanting to see the ability of these newly fledged hunters and get an understanding of the standards of competence.
'I think, I'll go after the occult dealer. What club are you talking about which should be infiltrated?' James asked the boss.
"Can go either way." Rebecca winked and flirted a little with the director, before becoming serious. "Think I'd do better on the search team. Since big sis Becca is a werewolf, she can use her nose to track her scent once we know the young warlock's general location. Since you're coming with James, I'll even let you hold my leash." She teased and taunted him. All goodheartedly, from her side. "Although, I prefer cats to dogs. And would need something with her scent on it to help pick her out."
"I'm find with either, so I will wait to see who will volunteer for which job and which group might need an extra team member before choosing." Seres decided to wait and see. Imps are likely weak but in large groups could dangerous for a single person - at least if they are anytihng like the imps in fiction.
"I would be more useful on the extermination team." Nadya shrugged quietly. Nadya can party hard, but she had plenty of reason to avoid clubs at the moment. There's the risk that she might be seen by one of her old mafia friends, but worse the temptation of hard drugs could have an effect on her. The Bureau were fine the first time trading her dependence on narcotics to weed, but she'd rather not go through that again if she could help it.
Following the group into the office, and remaining looming behind Nadya the whole time, Erika whistled softly under her breath at their boss' appearance. She had expected an old, withered bureaucrat type to be in charge of a place like this... not that she was complaining about the change. "Dibs on the warehouse," Erika said, cracking her knuckles, "I could use a little stress release after being cooped up for so long."
'If you really can track people by scent that should come in handy,' James said. He chuckled at her teasing wordplays, 'Hold your leash? Sorry, I'd rather not be dragged through the streets by a transformed were...tiger...leopard...I don't know which cat.'
"Great" Nadya muttered sarcastically as the woman committed to needling her through closeness volunteered to go with the same group as her.
"It's called..." She checks her notes. "Delirium, in Downtown Hollywood. A 'goth' club, whatever that means." James thinks back to remember if he's been there.
The director gives both Seres and Becca a look, revealing that she's noticed their attention, though she keeps her cards to her chest as to whether she's interested.
Seeing the plans be made, Alicia decided she may as well choose a side. “I can help with the club then...after I get some clothes to dress right for it.”
"Very well," the woman nods, "you two will be assigned to the assault team." "And you two are on the extraction team. We'll gather some clothes in your size, appropriate for wear at a club."
'Delirium?' James repeated, 'I heard the booze and music weren't bad. Not that a 19-year-old like myself would do such a thing.'
Seeing the two teams slowly form Seres decided not to wait until the last moment. While she had skills that would be useful for either job she wanted to try using her spells in actual combat. “I'd like to go with the assault team, if there are no objections.” She announced as she looked at their busty boss, whose name she still did not know.
Nadya couldn't help but to release a scoff as she has definitely gotten drunk in the past and is about the same age as James.
