[b]Alan and Julia[/b]

While Alan waited for Wash to come by and bring him back to his own car at the hospital Alan decided to call in some muscle in a more or less literal manner. He dialed in the number to the phone he had given to Julia earlier. "Hey. You want to lift the CIA's server?"

Julia was just staring at the clouds floating by when she heard the phone ring. She hadn't expected a call so soon but she was pleased to hear it. She pulled it out of her pocket and up to her, and was promptly completely shocked at the request. [color=f7941d]"Is that a joke?"[/color] she replied.

Alan smiled. Apparently this woman still had some normalcy still in her. He wondered how long that would last. "I told you two important things." Alan held up his hand with two fingers even though there was no way Julia could see them. "One, that it would be worth your while and two, that it would be dangerous. However, yes, I do need you to literally carry a server for me."

Julia sat in silence for a moment as she considered the proposition, on the one hand it would be exciting, on the other she could go to prison for life, and that meant no more trees, no more anything she loved. If she declined though she knew she'd always wonder what might have been. There was just some things she needed to be sure of first. [color=f7941d]"No one is gonna get hurt right?"[/color] Her voice wavered slightly with the question.

"We cannot afford to alert anyone so no. and if shit goes really bad I don't plan on doing anything more than knocking people out." In truth Alan would have been okay with killing everyone in the whole building if necessary, but he'd make an exception if it got him the help he needed. "Any more questions?"

Julia smiled at the reply, it was the best she expected she could get in this situation. But she felt she still had room to negotiate, after all she wasn't going to be paid for this, and she had a curiosity she wanted to clear up. And if she was a betting woman she'd wager he was just the man to do that clearing up for her. [color=f7941d]"Nah, no more questions, I'll do it on one condition, after we're done I need you to do me a teensy weensy itty bitty small favor, I can promise it won't put you in any danger, or cost you any money, and will only take minutes of your time. If you're the kind of man I think you are you won't even break a sweat. You just have to agree to it ahead of time so I know you won't back out."[/color]

Was it not normal for people to just want to get paid for their work anymore? "You know I can just pay you right?" Alan sighed. Julia hadn't proven herself to be an ordinary woman up to this point. "Whatever, what do you want?"

Julia stifled a chuckle. [color=f7941d]"What use do I have for money? I have everything I need right here!"[/color] She gestured to the meadow surrounding her knowing he had no idea what she was talking about. She really didn't want to actually tell him her request. It sounded crazy to her even now without saying it aloud, she wanted to get him to agree to it ahead of time in case he was more morally upstanding than she had thought. [color=f7941d]"Do you really need to know? I'll say that the only person who could passibly stand to lose anything from it is me."[/color] She stopped for a brief moment and decided to ease her request a bit. [color=f7941d]"Look, just tell me that when we're done you'll listen to my request after, alright? I don't need a promise, I can probably go pay some kid to do it if you won't, I'm just guessing you're ever so slightly more trustworthy and capable."[/color]

God damn it. This girl was lucky Alan was on a strict time limit or there was no way he was going to agree to this. "Sure" Alan reluctantly agreed as Wash drove up in a short red car. The thief threw open the door slightly frustrated. Wash opened his mought to speak, but alan just put a finger against the younger man's lips hoping he'd understand this was important. "I agree to take your request when we're done."

Julia sprang off the ground with one superpowered push and landed on her feet, audibly kissing the phone as she did. [color=f7941d]"You're the best! So, where and when are we doing this?"[/color] She asked as she started to jog back towards her Jeep.

"I'm going to to text you the location of a staging area. Be there as soon as you can."
