'Broken Taboos' Upper Downtown

15th Sept 2008, Arson Fire (5)

A Good Night Clubbing.
With the observation team in place (Tinkerbell & Meridian) the rest of the squad make separate entrances. All notice that every one is being given a good checking by the door staff, and Stacey talks to some guy in the queue who mentions it was not like this yesterday or the day before.
The other 2 member enter a little later (Stacey refuses to get to close to German) and spot in the queue a likely pair of SLA operatives. female Human, who simply looks out of place amongst the great unwashed of Downtown and a male Frother who is wearing Hard armor, and has his Clan Tartan as well as Claymore proudly displayed. Further up the queue is a Wraith raider in normal cavilian clothing.
Now the Squad start to really work noticing between them that the Club seems to have it's fair share of people wearing Kalista (a Strangely Latino Street Gang) colours, tying in with information that Stacey had acquired in the queue. The other thing of note the squad see is that there seems to be a policy of free drinks for girls up at the balcony, and some signs of dealing. Stacey ingrates herself with the gregarious Wraith raider along with too other women that his wad of cash has drawn.
Saturday Nights All Right for Fighting
The Observation team spot a problem shortly after 10.30 when they spot that the room next to there's is being used for what appears to be an attempted murder Tinkerbell decides to sort out the problem and after a very brief scuffle the perp is handed to shivers by security and the victim is handed to paramedic's. Mean while German has been following the frother around and discovered that where ever the slavering psycho goes every body else leaves, ending with a brooding Frother sat in the middle of a ring of empty tables. At this point German decides that playing grenades is just not dangerous enough and has a go at making eye contact with the slavering loon. The frother acts in a all too predictable way and charges over too this perceived challenge, with equal urgency German runs into the crowd the ensuing fracas causes many broken tables as young German sneaks away.
The Human female (suspected SLA Operative) has been watched closely by Harry. He over hears her cursing the Frother, and as she turns hurriedly away she falls over him. As the woman leaves Harry notices that she has droped a few items that he secrets about his person (a bag of blue powder, a calling card & Lighter) He decides to leave the club (ending up spending some time in a shiver holding cell).
German having caused trouble downstairs try's up at the balcony by approaching the Human operative, (who has approached and had words with the wraith raider) as she seems to be getting blotto at the balcony bar. After buying her a few more drinks he luckily saves her from the skin trade.
Revolations
Stacey decides to slip the wriath a dose of honesty and take him to a private room and "pump" him for information. She sucedes and discovers many things, like what exactly the other squad is meant to be doing. The night ends and the Obsovation team decide to move there hide to outside but infor the Manerger that all is fine and they are leaving, they will pick up the gear at the end of the week.
