Going To Visit The Pastor
JP with Jaxx, Trustno1, Redsword, mdman, Lorem and Cindy
Seated across the street from Charles Duane's church, reading on a park bench, an illusion of Eun-Ji blended seamlessly into the the surrounding city block. She was dressed in her typical hanfu attire which covered her tactical outfit underneath. She also had a small backpack sitting next to her on the bench, giving her the assumed appearance of a college student perhaps to any onlookers. In addition, she strategically placed the backpack next to her to prevent anyone else from sitting down.
The church, a majestic structure with intricate Gothic architecture, stood as a beacon of faith amidst the urban landscape. Its towering spires reached towards the heavens, casting long shadows over the streets below.
Surrounding the church, storefronts and businesses operated with minimal activity, while pedestrians meandered along the sidewalks, lost in their own thoughts and conversations. Across the way, a small and sparsely attended community park provided a serene oasis amidst the urban chaos, where locals walked their dogs and children played on the playground.
Despite the normalcy of the city block, an air of mystery and anticipation hung in the air as Eun-Ji appeared to patiently scope out the place behind the pages of a book she was reading. Over the last two days she had been focusing on research and investigation. The clues had now led her to this place.
"You have a standard dragon sword Sung? I have a feeling you will need it." Sartre watched for surveillance , as they arrived.
After parking, Alyssa said both in the chip and outloud. "Hold on a minute." She went into the back of the van. Typed a few things and watched a screen which showed the church. After a few minutes of this the computer expert said, once again both outloud and into the chip. "It looks clear. Eun-Ji seems to have already arrived."
Agent Powers asked, "Okay so what's the plan? Do we go in peaceful or do I break the door down?"
Sung opened the sword bag and pulled out his sword. When they arrived. No Peter, it is not this has been in my family for a long time it is hundreds of years old. It has been my family's focus for our sword technique. That is a mix with in its self." answered Sung to Peters's question.
Alyssa got out of the van, as she was opening the backdoor she heard Max's question. "I doubt we want to attract that much attention until it's absolutely necessary. But let's ask the others what they think." She stepped aside to allow Max out if the van, and waited for the others.
Choi saw Eun-Ji on the bench as Alyssa was pulling into the lot. He was glad that they’d actually be working together today.
Unbuckling and getting out, he swung Master Sung’s sword over his shoulder until it was snug against his back. He walked over to the bench and bowed to his partner.
“I am happy you are safe,” he sincerely stated. “What have you found out concerning the church? It looks like a basic Christian church.”
Sung sighed. "Choi, never judge a book by its looks. I think how it is said. Nothing in our line of work is how things look. " commented Sung.
The illusion on the bench looked up at Choi and said nothing. Then he heard a voice from behind a nearby tree, as the true Eun-Ji revealed herself. “I have learned that you all have no idea how to come upon an establishment without making a scene.” Referring to their pulling up as a group of misfits on a mission with an air of frustration.
She walked over to the bench, as simultaneously the illusion of her continued back to its reading. “My investigation left a trail of breadcrumbs to this place. I do not know what will be found inside, but what I learned makes me think it will be dangerous.” She then gestured to the people he brought. “And why might I ask are you mingling with the likes of the Illuminati?”
As Agent Powers waited he looked at the church and sized it up. He remembered in the past he had to find a drug cartel boss hiding in the church and trying to ambush him. Little did the Drug Boss know, Agent Powers was very creative in make a weapon out of anything with his insane strength. He used the pew or benches the people sat on as objects to hurl at the people shooting at him. He felt a little bad about destroying the place but it belonged to the Cartel so it had to be destroyed according to his father. He remembered the crushed bodies he left behind that had a pew for a head. For the Drug Boss he used a chair to crush his head into his torso. Then as a warning to any who would want to continue the Cartel biz, Agent Powers left a note in the Drug Lords hand. The note read "I quit!!! Sincerely, Chairface Chippendale." Agent Powers still giggles when he remembers that note. He wonder how confused it would make anyone who read it. He then looked around to see what the others wanted to do.
Alyssa looked at the ones standing by her and asked, "Should we go in?"
Agent Powers nodded as he replied, "I'm game."
