The Vegas Job [for nerdherdchuck]

[likely_evil]

ooc: takes place a few days after this

Sam was sitting at a bar at the Mirage, w glass of whiskey in his hand as he swirled it around. One drink was all he allowed himself to have while he was on a job, and he planned on making this one last.

He had been in Vegas for a day now, and while he had gotten a good lay of the land as well as staked out a few of the supposed drop points, Sam had yet to find his contact. Supposedly this guy was a special agent from another government division, one who would be able to help him and had special knowledge of the party that KAOS was trying to sell the object to.

Of course Sam had no idea who he was waiting for. Just told that the guy coming to find him would recognize him for who he was, and leave it at that. Which left Sam sitting at the bar, alone, sipping his whiskey and waiting.

And hoping that his partner for this mission was someone he could get along with last time. Last time the chief sent him on a mission with another government agency, he had gotten some crackpot burnt-out NSA agent who loved his guns a bit more than the safety of his partner.

Chuck glanced into the room for a moment. The Intersect didn't seem to have any information on him just yet as no file loaded when he saw him.

He turned back towards the demon. "What do you know about that man? Anything?"

"Just that he came into town and has been trying to set up this big auction to sell things to highest bidders. Otherwise he's a jerk with a gambling addiction. But that's half the people in Vegas..."

Sam rolled his eyes. "What's his name?"

"Miko. Miko Talert."

Chuck glanced over at Miko, sizing him up. "He doesn't look like he would be much of a fighter." He then paused and added, "But before it came to that, maybe we can convince him to talk somehow..."

"I'm not used to negotiating with demons," Sam stated cooly.

"Great. So Miko is a demon too," Chuck remarked. "Well by 'convince' I don't necessary mean negotiate. We may even be able to trick him into giving us the information we want."

"We could." Sam looked at Chuck. "However, the moment he sees me, he'll run. If you want to try and trick him, I need to be out of sight."

"All right."

Chuck then thought for a moment. "This guy is probably in it for the money. Maybe I can convince him I'd make him a better offer than the Fulcrum contact would."
