Vay stepped around the stack of papers in the cramped office as its owner stubbed out a cigarette expelling a long, smoky breath as Vay looked out the grimy window.
"Christ Seiji you should really clean this place." He muttered before sitting the chair making a loud creak as a frown crossed Seiji's face.
"Is that why you came here, Vay, to call my office dirty?"
A moment of silence passed between the two men as the sounds of Iwaku filtered through the window. "No, I came because we have a problem and you're still working for us."
Another moment of silence as Seiji glared across the desk. "Whats the problem?"
"I'm sure you've heard the rumors Seiji, a man in your business would be slipping if he hadn't." Vay was leaning forwards now.
"I hear plenty of rumors, not all of them I like." The tension in the room thickened the air and made it hard to breath before Vay let out a breath. "Diana is missing."
It was Seiji's turn to lean forwards. "What? Why wasn't I told."
"We're trying to keep it quiet, it word got out there would be panic. No one knows outside of the administrators and well, us in the darker shade of purple."
There was a pause. "Why is it you telling me this why not…"
"… Fluffy? Its her job to tell Ocha, Zypher is meeting with Rory and Jack."
"Ocha knows too?"
"Shes our cover story, Rory has name public bulletins under Diana's name but the official story is Dianas with Ocha, that way no one will question her silence."
"Where does that leave me?" The golden question. Seiji leaned back to await his answer.
"You did good work on the I C case, we want you to find Diana."
Seiji nodded as Vay lifted a suitcase onto the desk and flipped the latches opening it revealing the stacks of green paper within and Seiji whistled.
"A down payment, for your services and you silence. I don't need to tell you how important this is, and how much we need it taken care of quietly."
Seiji propped his feet up on the desk his eyes still on the money offered to him. "I'll find your admin. Just make sure your next payment looks like this one."
Vay stood and tipped his hat a relieved smile on his face before he turned to go as Seiji pulled the pack out his breast pocket along with a book of matches.
"One more thing." Vay said his foot out the door and Seiji turned his head. "The Shade says hello." The door rattled closed the glass panel emblazoned with the one man operation on whose shoulders the entire city of Iwaku now rested.
