Things were going better than expected. Lady luck was finally smiling down upon them after a year and a half of getting kicked in the teeth by her metaphorically and literally at one point for a former hero of CHAMP, Pearly Whites. Poor guy had to get dentures after getting a face full of boot...seven times in one fight.

"Sure thing, Bob. Maybe you can even invite your friend Zane to help me tinker with your gear." Manny says innocently with a friendly thumbs up before turning to Link and Talia. "That would be the plan as the client would prefer that Bucur to face justice but...has no qualms if we kill him. He'd still consider the job done and we'd still get renown and paid." Manny pauses and scratches the back of his head while slightly looking down to the floor. "I know that killing people is unavoidable at times in our line of work but I follow a strict no-kill rule that Captain Amazing followed." Manny believed that the late great hero did it out of the altruistic sense of righteousness of giving a bad soul to reform and be good. But in truth it was simply bad for the sponsors if their 'hero' had any blood on his hands.

"But I know that the thugs in the nightclub will likely have guns in their possession and I've learned from my mistakes over the past year and a half. I don't have them with me right now...but I will have them by tonight. They're personal shield generators. The kind that people like the President have. I'd go into detail on how I made these from junk but I think it'd take too long and it'll just bore you guys. Just keep in mind that these things will protect you from a few bullets but not so much from slower moving things like thrown objects, fists, or melee weapons."
