Nick arrived at the shipyard with Randy Hernandez following on his motorcycle. they arrived and started moving stuff into boxes. Nick focused on what was downstairs, and Randy went upstairs. as he walked up the stairs, he heard typing. he snuck into the room, and spotted the sillhouette of a person and from what he could see over it's shoulder, was trying to hack into the PC's database to access the information. he grabbed the person by the arm, but was swiftly fliped and pinned down. then someone else attacked, and judging by the sound, Nick, who had gone for the person's arms and holding them behind their head, but whoever it was flipped Nick over, who ended up landing ontop of Randy. a light switch was flicked, and a rather shapely lady with dark, short hair and black lipstick. she was wearing a short lilac t-shirt and denim straight cut jeans, and had a military green shoulder gun holster under her black jacket, which was open. "Enough?" she said. "huhuh, suweet!" said Randy after looking at her for a few seconds in admiration, earning an annoyed nudge in the ribs from Nick. "Who are you?" said Nick as he got up. " Monique Dupre. I believe you know my friends in the insurance business" she said, handing an unmistakably familiar card to Nick. "you mean to tell me the French Secret Service has been shadowing me the whole time?!" responded Nick with a note of outrage in his voice as he knocked the double door to the balcony open and walked out. "Your a spy? cool" said Randy as Monique followed Nick. "Seeing your background in mutations, it was inevitable that you come across another one that could be a threat, and so the decision was made to follow you. and, as expected, you came across a child of the beast Godzilla, and we had to take measures to...dispose of it". "So you're the one who called in the army when the new one turned up". "had you done your job properly, that creature would have been eliminated long before i had to step in". "What gives you the right to-" started Nick, before being cut off by Monique. "and now, the moral debate begins. might we postpone this discussion until AFTER we have dealt with our latest problem?". as she said this, she pulled out a blurry picture showing what seemed to be a cross between a mantis, a wasp and a dinosaur. "[i]Oooh no, im done cleaning up after YOUR government" responded Nick "ahah, Your angst is almost your pain. but please, join me in looking at...how do you say...the big picture? i can provide you with a state of the art research vessel, as well as weaponry and..ahm, protection". Nick was about to refuse, but then Randy interrupted. "dunno about you Jefe, but i'm feelin safer already. we're goin after 'em anyway, so we may as well have some high tech stuff in our hands". Nick shrugged, and said "Very well...how soon do we leave?". Monique grinned at her acomplishment, another to add to a VERY long list. "Tomorrow morning, meet me here". Nick nodded, and walked inside, hastily finished the work with Randy and left...
Deep below, something large was stirring...
"Ah yes, organised chaos. the sign of a clever but ever-busy mind. To the perpetrator, a carefully woven web of belongings and intrigue, but to the bystander? Madness!"
