[b][color=808080]"I'll find them. Whoever orchestrated the whole shebang."[/color][/b] A wolfish grin spread across her face, [b][color=808080]"Pun intended."[/color][/b] 

Megahertz was quiet for a bit… and then chuckled, a sound as subdued as any expression beneath that hood. [color=b8cee5][b]“A comedian. Good. Levity is as rare and precious as a virgin in Northbridge.”[/b][/color]

[b][color=808080]“I don't suppose you have a lead? Or some sort of Bloodhound unit among these dogs?"[/color][/b] 

Megahertz shook her head. [color=b8cee5][b]“The scene of the crime is the best place to start. Of course, to even get Upstairs, you’d need a Great Elevator. And those don’t exactly grow on trees.”[/b][/color] Megahertz clasped her hands beneath her sleeves, and she inhaled in preparation for her summary, [color=b8cee5][b]”Cross the border, weave between the sentries and barricades laid by ARES and their Templars… and find your mark.”[/b][/color]

The Cazador units blinked out beneath their camouflage, in formations of sixes, then nines, then twelves, until all but the Red-eyed Hound faded - the latter loyally sitting by its master. [color=b8cee5][b]”This is goodbye for now, Astrid. But we will be watching.”[/b][/color]

The hologram flickered, then disappeared entirely. 

The Red-eyed Hound stared at Astrid, its features empty of emotion. It approached her, its stance low like a wary animal as it let out a hiss of garbled static. Astrid’s phone buzzed once. The hound lifted its head as it spoke, [b]”Use that number to contact Us, if needed.”[/b] The Lead Cazador walked past her, its cloak shimmering over its azure chassis as it faded into the dark.
