Second Rejection

JP with Peter, Alyssa, Max, Choi, Sung and Eun-Ji

Halliwell Manor - San Francisco, CA

Choi Yeong wasn’t surprised. He was certain it would only be a matter of time before their paths crossed. It wouldn’t be the last time either.

“Well, well,” he stated, “if it isn’t Mr. Sartre. I suppose Alyssa is all eyes and ears somewhere around here.”

Yeong turned in all directions, waving thinking somewhere the mysterious Alyssa would pick up the wave. “Tell her I said ‘Hello!’”

He turned serious as quickly as he joked. “Have you found anything?”

Sung said nothing and just stood in the background in a shadow making sure his face was obscured. He had no idea who Sartre was but he would not say or do anything unless Eun-Ji or Choi did He would wait to see what happened.

"I just arrived through the window in the attic, if the sisters still lived here they would expect us to fix their door." said Sartre.

The Illuminati agent may have holstered his gun; however, Eun-Ji upon hearing and seeing a figure approach had pulled out both her hammers and held them ready. She lowered them marginally when Choi and the stranger began conversing, but no more than that.

She looked at Sartre with steel like eyes, sizing him up and an expressionless gaze. Fortunately Choi had started talking, because she had no intentions of replying. The man seemed unfazed by the state of the door, which made her think he must be experienced to not even bat an eye at that; he had seen his fair share of crazy.

“I …. don’t have time for this.” She said with a mixture of reserved irritation and as a matter of fact. If Choi wanted to be cordial with the enemy, she would leave him to it. Then she exited their presence and made her way up the stairs.
