Orion became sick of waiting after nearly 15 min past the expected time.  Even the waitress lamented that she hadnt identified anybody who was looking for Orion.  Its bad juju to stay too long especially after that scuffle.  The world has prying eyes and all it takes is an inquisitive few to get a little too interested.  Orion decided to make the call.
	
	The vidcom for the now deceased Astrik began to ping in his room.  This alarmed Garth and the other members of the Yakuza.  They all looked at each other wondering if they should answer it or let it ring.  Garth would have preferred if Cel was here to make that decision but he assumed it was on Astrik's private line so he clicked the button.

The voice on the other end of the line stated [color=0072bc]"I hope you have a good reason to keep me waiting Astrik'[/color]
Garth paused...
[color=0072bc]"Astrik?"[/color] questioned Orion at the weird pause.
[color=39b54a]"Who is this?"[/color]  asked Garth.
Orion typed a code on his vidcom and started a backhack so he could identify the person on the other end of the line.  Unbeknownst to Garth, and the sleeping Astrik Orion was able to view Astriks video that is normally used to capture two way vidcalls.  
[color=0072bc]"I dpn't know this guy"[/color] thought Orion [color=0072bc]"but he looks like one of his compadres and I think I wont be meeting Astrik tonight because he sure as hell aint sleeping with a hole in his head"[/color]
[color=0072bc]"Is there another way that I can reach him, its urgent and regarding a meeting we had scheduled?"[/color] spoke Orion
Garth replied somewhat stupidly [color=ed1c24]"Yeah he's kinda busy, give Cel a call.  He's at some club and can point you in the right direction.  His vidcom # is 543678"[/color] [color=ed1c24]"Hello?"[/color]
[color=f7941d]"You damn idiot Garth"[/color]  shouted a Yakuza [color=f7941d]"Why the hell would you just give out Cel's number without a clue who was asking?  He's gonna have your ass for that!"[/color]

	Orion didn't wait to say goodbye and had just hung up.  Less time on those machines is safer anyways nowadays.  The fool on the other line gave him something to go on.  Maybe this deal could still be salvaged after all.  Its not too often that you can get guaranteed safe passage to The outer rings colonies with no questions asked.  Even if it's the Yakuza.  At least they would keep their word or suffer their own consequences.  Orion sent a vidcall request to #543678 half expecting nothing to happen.  If that were the case then he would vacate the premises and have to find another way to get offworld and back to his dropship.   Maybe this Cel would honour his previous Big Boss' agreement.  The big question remains.  Will this Cel answer at all?
