Seeking the Seeker: part1

   Three long weeks in a ratty transporter. I did a little drinkin, a little smokin and used the time to study up on my streetwise skills. See being streetwise where I grew up meant knowing the fastest way to the mall, or where the best party spots are. So the guy we are lookin for is Horton Merriweather, age 56, Ok credit, seems a legit guy on paper really. Besides the fact he was in the Scout Service we really don't have anything else on the guy.
   This planet we are on is pretty wild, only around 20,000 people here and with such a low law level things could get interesting quick. We unload and enter Termous Dex's starport to head down to the town. This place is like some crazy miners wet dream, lots of bars and general supply houses ready to suck up every penny they can. Everyone is armed, including myself. I carry two body pistols at all times cause a girl never knows what will happen next around Chewy. We hit a nasty smelling little dive and start asking for info. We wanted to know if there was a rotation in the schedule of the miners, we got lucky and found out our guy was considered a scab, and was last seen on the 8th orbit six or seven weeks ago. Chewy slips our helpful new miner friends a 100cr each and they are quick to tell us more. Looks like there are three corporate facilities up there, all very private and oddly enough no one knows, or will admit to knowing, what they are actually mining. We really came up with nothing else so we spent two days in jump and headed to the 8th orbit. There is no law level here and it looks like a nightmare version of blade runner meets deep space 9, oh yeah it's guns out time. Of course Chewy decides it would be a good idea to go as a pimp and a hooker so we fit in *sigh*. So I squeeze into something slutty and put on some heels. Pray that I make it off the ship in these things cause I am not very graceful. I manage to conceal my pistols, don't ask where just know I can get to them quicker than you think, and Doc gets the pimp job cause he is the best dresser and he has the highest streetwise skill. We split up and head into this big bar on the main drag. Doc and I head for a booth in the back and start playing our roles.
   This place is filled with ruff looking guys and really nasty looking hookers. Chewy, Gavin and Stormie head to the bar and order drinks. About the time the bartender set the drinks down this hairy mammal looking thing had shoved past Chewy and the gang. They pat them selves down and oddly enough they don't find anything missing. I take the opportunity to pat myself down as well while trying to look extra sexy and get some nice cheers from a table near by. I take my role playing very seriously *wink* My first victim is the waiter, he makes the mistake of coming too close and I latched on to his arm. In my best imitation of a dirty girl I whisper in his ear that I need his help finding a date and then a slide back across the seat, smiling my best you know you want me smile at him, and sip my drink.
