You call around and nobody wants to talk about the bombing, or claims they know nothing about it. One person you are trying to contact is Danny Holden, you finally reach him.

"When'd you get back?" he plops a filled mug down in front of Woof and asks, "And what you doing down here...slummin? Or fishin?" Eris AKU GM

He makes a motion with his head and walks down the bar away from the other patrons and waits for you to follow him. He leans in where you can smell his foul breath and says, "Look, I don't know nuthin' you hear, but the word around is that that dame was getting into stuff she ought not, too have, you know what I mean? Somebody decided to take her out of the picture, savvy? From what I hear, she's running and has got both sides of the law chasing and both might be a bit itchy with the trigger finger." "Being around her wouldn't be healthy at the moment." Bosh leans back and finishes, "So, like I said I don't know no Kramers." Eris AKU GM

She called me, in trouble. *I* know she was set up. If you see her, or know where I can reach her, let me know. I know the kind of trouble she's in, and she needs my help..." Woof

"I'll keep it in mind." he says looking past you toward the door, "Looks like somebody's trying to get your attention." Glancing over your shoulder you see that Danny Holden is standing just inside the doorway. He motions with his hand at you nervously. Eris AKU GM Eris AKU GM

"No, er, yes...no! That's not it." Danny whispers. He is clearly flustered and very nervous. "Don't want to talk in here.

Danny looks both ways up and down the dark sidewalks nervously. There are several people walking on the sidewalks and vehicles going up and down the street outside...it looks normal enough to Woof. Danny twitches his head toward an alley and starts in that direction, pausing to see if Woof is following. Eris RDeep

He sees a pair of men stop on the sidewalk at the entrance to the alley. It looks like one is holding something up to the other's mouth. He sees a small flame, and then a glow...and then the two men start to walk down the sidewalk again away from the alley. Danny is now at the back of the alley where it ends at a 2 meter high chain length fence. > "Wanna take a cab outa here?" "What? Danny seems startled by Woof's statement and looks very nervous, even jumpy, "No, look let's get this over with fast, okay?" "I've got a message for you from a certain sianna. She says if would be best for you to stay out of this, but that she could use your help." Danny whispers and hands Woof a folded piece of paper, "I'm delivering this message to you, no charge, and then I'm *out* of it." "If you got any sense, you'll burn that note...unread." Danny jams his hands into his pockets and adds, "Look, I'm going on a vacation until this all blows over, so don't try to find me for the next couple of weeks."
