The Best Laid Plans...
Gotham was a city that was home to drug lords, gangs, organized crime and other criminal types. Tomas, Carolyn and Iota didn't pay mind to the others and were focused on the drug dealers. There was a major shipment arriving at the docks this evening and the three of them were going to stop it.

Manasa stood perched on the roof of a dockside warehouse waiting. The time to move would come soon. The ship carrying the drugs was just docking.

	Tomas awakens in binders as well - but more importantly, two viewscreens are set where he can see them, showing both of the girls bound in place as well, in other rooms. That stops him from trying to start planning an escape from these pretty quickly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	A small intercom was in each holding area/cell. It turned on and a woman's voice came over it. "All three of you have been very naughty and very busy lately. Assault, murder, theft, treason against the US and its allies and the list goes on. We have a mountain of evidence against each of you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm sure you do, Senora. But until now, what you have is suspicion. We have no records... but this does not look like prison. What do you want?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Iota ponders. Don't you have to be from somewhere to commit treason against it? But Tomas's question is much more important, so she'll let him and Carolyn do the talking for now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You have nothing on us," Carolyn said. She had to give them credit. It was difficult getting out of the restraints. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Well, aside from these things," Iota says, straining in vain against her own restraints. "She does have these on us." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"You stay out of prison and don't disappear off the face of the Earth. You also won't be turned over to some corrupt Central American government bought by drug cartels. In return, we get operatives. It's the best deal you're going to get." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Tomas can't help but laugh, despite the situation. "So whoever you are... is resorting to blackmail? How do we know you're not with the cartels? Who /are/ you anyway?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"We are a branch of the United States government. This is an offer Mr. Dorrance. Mr. Wu-San. Whichever one you are using today. This is the best offer you'll get." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He can't help but appreciate the situation. Of course the US Government wants them - their own war on drugs is going so well, after all. "Work for you, or be shipped to where we'll be executed. I don't see that we have much choice. So... blackmail successful." At least til he figures a way out of this for all of them. That can go unsaid. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Or rot in a prison cell," she added. "Very well. Someone will be along soon to escort the three of you to your new homes." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Great," Carolyn said her words dripping with sarcasm. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Iota is using frowning muscles that haven't gotten this much exercise in years. (Reply to this)(Parent)
