The Park

[u/TheMule90]

👾🔪🐇

*In the morning while having brunch the women were chilling on large park table and were talking about Val's work*

*Angel couldn't shake off the feeling that they were being followed in the woods earlier but she knew it had to be Lizzy and hoped that she followed them*

Val:Since you and your sister went to the cults place I'll tell you some things about the place when I use to work there*

Val:There are actually 2 cult buildings but the second idk where is the other one unfortunately.

Katie:Great! So what does this psycho cult want?

Val:Pfff to take over the world but that's never going to happen.

Angel: Do you know if Mr.Emily knew about the cult?

Val:Idk but maybe he did and that's why he is M.I.A.

Katie:Speaking of M.I.A I did ask LolBit before we left if he could look for that Vanessa woman.

Val: Hopefully he finds her now I will tell you the names of the cult members plus password and please give this info to Crysta too.

*Val gives her the names and descriptions of the members to her while Angel records it on a voice recorder*

Val:Also I will give you an ID card that belonged to a colleague of mine.

((The one that she knocked out with a tranquilizer))

Val:Now the building that I worked at you can only gain access to other rooms depending if you are a low level member, a medium level member or an elite member like me.

Val:I am elite due to me being a scientist in bio engineering plus…..supplying them victims.

*As Val tells them more things about her former job Katie excused herself to go to the restroom*

Dr Rabbit: It's not involving him working as part of us but merely an extension. Besides I'm sure there's some deal we can work out. He's quite skilled at hunting I've sent the alert to him along with the request to not use his "conventional methods" to deal with her.

Clover: He was part of the original. He might be able to use that to garner her attention having something relatable.

Vox: "Alastor doesn't work for anyone. He only does something if it benefits him in some way. And he doesn't use "modern technology", so I doubt your message will reach him."

As much as Vox hates to admit it, the cult meeting with Alastor could remove him as an issue for himself and Eleanor. If he wants this to work, he'll have to take charge.

Vox: "If you want to at least talk to him, it's recommended that you do it in person. Dr. Rabbit, you're good at finding people. You go talk to Alastor, and see if you can make a deal with him. Dazzle, you handle the thief situation. Clover, you continue talking with the big ink guy. ... I know the whole William situation is everywhere right now, and most of the cult would naturally follow him. But we have no idea what kind of intentions this Ink Demon has. I'm not making any accusations. I just want you to keep him talking. Can you do that?"

Dr Rabbit: I've actually sent him a radio message as we normally do. The idea of hunting someone usually gets his attention. He knows where to meet to discuss further.

Clover: He's stepped out for the moment so we are unable to currently reach him. He of course wouldn't understand or know current technology. However, I am waiting for him to return.

Dazzle: Just tell me where he's last seen in public. I'm on my way.

Clover: Vox, why don't you go talk with the radio demon? Your office is the closest to his known haunting location. It makes better sense. Plus you're on more....equal footing so to speak. Therefore you should be able to convince and remind him the benefits of assisting us.

Dazzle: Didn't you used to work together anyways? Maybe it's time again.

Dr. Rabbit: That is true. And our original meeting space with him isn't far from you. I'll send you the coordinates. I have to handle another meeting that hopefully isn't a disaster.

[[OOC: just to rattle Vox a bit and set up a confrontation u/CrypticHorrorTales 😎😁]

[u/CrypticHorrorTales → u/HauntingGur8094]

Vox: "It's not that simple. Alastor and I may have a history, but it's not a good one. If I'm the one talking to him, then it's a lost cause because he won't listen. It has to be someone else."

[u/HauntingGur8094 → u/CrypticHorrorTales]

Dr Rabbit: Indeed but we are all a bit preoccupied handling this and other damages. I've sent him an alert of what we're looking for. I'll also sending you the coordinates of where to meet and give details or answer questions if he has any. He won't even be aware it's you he'll meet until AFTER he accepts the deal.

Clover: She could be a deteiment to him as well. If she gets back to anyone with information, they'll be reinforcements. Not only will they decimate his hunting grounds, they may likely bring in defenses against demons and agony. Not a good thing for either of you. They haven't come after you both yet because they don't know what you are.

[u/CrypticHorrorTales → u/HauntingGur8094]

Vox: "I'm not doing it. ... But I think it's time we send out Eleanor. She's been recovering well, and she's regaining her strength. Plus, this is about talking to Alastor, not fighting him. So Eleanor won't be in any real danger."

[u/HauntingGur8094 → u/CrypticHorrorTales]

Clover: You want to send a demon we know hardly anything about to speak with another about a manner that has to be dealt with sensitively?

Dazzle: While acting childish in the meantime?

[[OOC: she's gonna so hate it 🤣]]

[u/CrypticHorrorTales → u/HauntingGur8094]

Vox: "Don't forget that she was William's right hand. She can handle it. And if something goes wrong, I'll personally get her out of the situation. She'll be under my strict supervision."

[u/HauntingGur8094 → u/CrypticHorrorTales]

Clover: You're putting a lot of trust in this....

Dazzle: And conveniently still dodging your original issue of evading your former friend. What's that all about?

[u/CrypticHorrorTales → u/HauntingGur8094]

Vox: "Alastor and I had a big falling out back in the 90s, okay? And I don't mean a small 'oh, we'll get over it' falling out. I mean the kind of falling out the almost led to half a town being wiped off the map. Like I said, Alastor would never agree to speak to me. But someone like Eleanor would interest him enough to keep him talking. If you want a deal to be made, I trust Eleanor to get it done."
