**A week ago, someone made an appointment for this time, but was cagey on the details.. however, they sounded as if the case might be a little stranger than usual and you asked if you could have a collegue in on the interview - after some argument, they agreed**

Legion (Nov 12, 2011 11:03:32 PM)
((feel free to invite who you like, we can make the first interview where you like too... cool?))

Legion (Nov 12, 2011 11:04:55 PM)
((The man's name was Daniel Parker, he works in the billing department of New Orleans General Hospital and he's asked for discretion))

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:05:12 PM)
::Eva was working in her room, a large, scarred work table. She had a pair of binders next to her, reviewing code, waiting for her. Eva tapped her fingernails impatiently on the table, painted a glossy grey. She was relaxing in her chair, and wearing a long-sleeved Henley and a pair of well-fitting jeans::

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:05:21 PM)
(anyone can join in, I'm not picky)

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:05:34 PM)
(Jeff is momentarily afk)

Legion (Nov 12, 2011 11:05:42 PM)
((then feel free to IC call them))

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:05:46 PM)
(but Eva knows Pey and Paige)

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:05:55 PM)
(but does she have a reason to, yet?)

Legion (Nov 12, 2011 11:08:28 PM)
((only that he was incredibly cagey about coming in and said that 'something weird was going on and he feared for who else was invloved... he begain to mention a Elijah Tolaganda but refused to say more... when you chcked around for the name, he owns an occult supplies store and has a rep for being a pretty authentic type))

Legion (Nov 12, 2011 11:12:10 PM)
**Daniel Parker enters the agency and looks about, unsure as to where to go. He's a pleasant lookiomg african american, smartly dressed though his white shirt has a N.O G.H logo on it. **

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:12:49 PM)
(I called them by whispering their celestial names, murmuring for them to show up regarding Elijah Tolaganda)

**He knocks on the door**

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:17:27 PM)
::Eva stood up and offered a smile, looking the man over with her honey-colored eyes:: Hello, Mr. Parker... I'm Eva. You sound like you have something on your mind...

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:17:36 PM)
(door open, for all)

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:17:38 PM)
*While apparently talking to himself, Jeff drives his old but perfectly tuned car just a bit over the speed limit to the agency's address... He also is not shy about using his power to cut some corners.* ((Just saying Jeff used lore of paths to find a quicker way here for effect, but I'll skip on rolling if you don't mind, Legion, and let you tell me when I arrive, ok?))

Paige Villawood (Nov 12, 2011 11:18:53 PM)
*Paige makes her way through the city streets with Peyton, dark eyes sparkling with curiosity as to what could have led Eva to calling them, the mystery investing the evening with a new sense of excitement that keeps the smile upon her lips.*

Legion (Nov 12, 2011 11:18:57 PM)
**he nods, smiling a little** I want to t'ank you for seein' me so soon. T'ings at wark have been gettin' worse now for me know... I' t'ink somet'in very bad is happenin'

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:19:45 PM)
((btw, neither Eva nor I met Genevieve IC yet, but I figure she'd be welcome if we found a way to call her))

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:20:10 PM)
(I did tell either of the girls to ask)

Paige Villawood (Nov 12, 2011 11:20:16 PM)
(I pm'd her asking if she wanted to come join the scene but she hasn't answered so I think she's afk)

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:20:38 PM)
((She tends to stay afk a lot, I think))

Peyton Broussard (Nov 12, 2011 11:20:49 PM)
*She is just as curious as Paige, but a little nervous too, this could be a ruse to lure them out.. but no.. what was she thinking.. Shakes her head and re- focuses*

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:21:53 PM)
::she smiles a bit more:: Okay, well we're here to help... and I have a few of my associates here to listen as well. We work as a team.. to help you best, Mr. Parker. Why don't we all take a seat? ::Eva leading them into the small meeting room::

Paige Villawood (Nov 12, 2011 11:22:50 PM)
*Hands slipped into her pockets she looks over to Peyton picking up on the nerve's in her companion.* Everything okay Pey? If you'd rather not go..... *she lets the thought trail off, trying to understand the reason for her friends hesitation>*

Peyton Broussard (Nov 12, 2011 11:24:07 PM)
*Looks over to her friend and smiles reassuringly* No.. it's all good..* zips her hoody up, because there is definitely a chill in the air*

Paige Villawood (Nov 12, 2011 11:24:37 PM)
(Her reply was ... *Shrugs*, what does that mean?)

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:24:45 PM)
**He nods, looking about at the crew Eva has pulled together and follows into the boardroom, taking a seat**

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:25:16 PM)
((The crew is us, right?))

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:25:26 PM)

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:25:28 PM)

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:25:48 PM)
::Eva leads them in and closes the door, relaxing in a seat, her laptop in front of her, ready to type::

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:26:41 PM)
*Jeff does look like the sort of a bruiser that might come in handy for a detective agency now and then. As he walks inside and carefully takes a seat, he eyes the client with a hint of curiosity. Thankfully, since he had visited the casino, the large malefactor was actually dressed in nice clothes for a change.*

Paige Villawood (Nov 12, 2011 11:26:41 PM)
*She smiles and nods as she runs up the little steps to Eva's office, a smile and wave given to her and Jeff as she slips into the room just before the door is shut.*

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:27:21 PM)
*He greets Paige and Peyton with a nod and a smile as well.*

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:29:07 PM)
**He takes a seat, crossing his hands before him, the hint of a gold watch under his cuff** Well, it began a few weeks ago. I work in the billing department at New Orleans General and well, it might not be the most thrilling of occupations, it's something I'm pretty efficiant at and I have been promoted twice in the past four years from handling customer accounts to handling equipment and contracts

Peyton Broussard (Nov 12, 2011 11:29:08 PM)
*Her demeanor is open and pleasant as she greets Jeff while entering*

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:29:28 PM)
((she ignored me completely - why do some people join a chat?))

Peyton Broussard (Nov 12, 2011 11:30:06 PM)
(( she is usually -not there-))

Paige Villawood (Nov 12, 2011 11:30:13 PM)
(I'm going to assume rl has called her afk)

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:30:44 PM)

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:32:15 PM)
((I said her to come on in anyway, since this building is now probably making awareness tingle with the gathering of demons))

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:32:27 PM)
((But I think she can't right now))

Paige Villawood (Nov 12, 2011 11:32:37 PM)
*Taking a seat in the little boardroom she crosses her legs and leans back waiting quietly while the man continues to speak.*

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:32:51 PM)
::she nods to him and gestures for him to go on:: Okay.. ::Eva making notes on her computer::

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:33:05 PM)
((I never know whether to use he or she for guys playing girls or vice versa even if I'm talking about them OOC...))

Paige Villawood (Nov 12, 2011 11:33:29 PM)
(lol that was random Jeff)

Peyton Broussard (Nov 12, 2011 11:33:32 PM)
*Stands and leans back against the wall, listening*

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:34:23 PM)
Anyhow... I noticed that one of the cleaning contractors had changed his account details and so as I always do, I rang foreward and just confirmed with the company. Anyhow... what I got didnt sound like no company I ever called before. Some old guy coiughing and choking into the phone, kids or something yellin' in the background and half way through explaining who I was, he tells me to hold up and starts screaming at someone 'you shut that effin' chattle down or I'll make you wish you'd never escaped"

Peyton Broussard (Nov 12, 2011 11:35:09 PM)
*Her eyes widen a bit as she hears this story, but she says nothing*

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:35:15 PM)
*Raises an eyebrow*

Paige Villawood (Nov 12, 2011 11:35:29 PM)
Escaped? *Her head tilts to the side at that word, the single phrase sparking a myriad of possibilities that begin to fliter through her mind.*

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:35:52 PM)
Anyhow, he tells me the banking details are just fine and hangs up... I mean, what was I to t'ink?

Geneviève Desmarais (Nov 12, 2011 11:36:09 PM)
*She raised an eyebrow, folding her arms across her chest.*

Paige Villawood (Nov 12, 2011 11:37:22 PM)
Did he have any kind of accent? *She speaks without thinking, almost immediately turning an apologetic smile to Evangelina.*

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:37:27 PM)
**He looks about at you all** I had no idea what t'ink of such a T'ing, so I just tried to forget about it. ((I will stop with accent as it's slowing me down... just think west Jamaica)

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:38:08 PM)
::Eva's eyes narrow slightly, but she nods to him and gestures for him to keep going:: Please... with any details you can think of... ::she shakes her head to Paige in a "no problem, please ask questions" move::

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:38:12 PM)
The man on the phone sounded european kind of, and old, scratchy. To be honest, his voice gave me cold shivers

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:38:29 PM)
Did the tone sound familiar? Have you heard something like it before?

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:38:33 PM)
((Got it. Less typed accent makes it easier on me, too. :-) ))

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:38:42 PM)
No ma'am , not at all

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:39:08 PM)
Could you give us the phone number you used to call them?

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:40:23 PM)
Sure.. I have that and the company name 'Brite Cleaning' right here.....So last week, I had to stay later than usual and I nended up hitting the underground parking about hmmm 11 pm I'd say

Peyton Broussard (Nov 12, 2011 11:40:44 PM)
.

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:41:07 PM)
I'm crossing to my car and I see this can, Brite Cleaning. It was all beaten up and rusted up, Like I'm thinking how in the hell did these guys win a contract at all

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:41:17 PM)
((brb, RL)

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:41:21 PM)
((kk))

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:41:22 PM)
Okay... and what happened?

Geneviève Desmarais (Nov 12, 2011 11:45:06 PM)
*She raised a hand to her chin and rubbed it, tilting her head some as she glanced over the others a moment before turning back to Daniel.*

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:46:13 PM)
((bck sorry))

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:46:21 PM)
((wb))

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:46:21 PM)
(I'm afk for a sec, hubby on the phone)

Evangelina Rivera (Nov 12, 2011 11:47:07 PM)
(I'll read up, back in a few)

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:48:07 PM)
Anyhow, so, curiosity takes a hold, so I make my way around the cars to get a better look and the service elevator opens. Now, why I ducked i can't tell you... just a gut feeling, but these two guys in white overalls come out, draging something wrapped up in white, and it looks like a body

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:48:44 PM)
They rangle it over to their beaten up old van and get in before driving off

Peyton Broussard (Nov 12, 2011 11:49:24 PM)
Did you by any chance gt the license number?

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:50:27 PM)
damn it, no, I never thought of that at the time, I was too intent on playing junior detective from what I know see... I went bqack upstaris to check the billing on their accounts to see how long they's been in the building

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:51:40 PM)
But according to accounts, they get paid, like, their on the books as a cleaning service right, but...**he emphasises with his hands** they dont clean anything

Paige Villawood (Nov 12, 2011 11:52:11 PM)
*Listening closely to the details she wonders what on earth this man had sumbled upon as she waits for the story to unfold. At his final words her eyes light up.* Oh I'm sure they clean up -something-.

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:52:21 PM)
I mean, all the ather contractors cover everything, while 'Brite Cleaning' are'nt assigned to anything

Peyton Broussard (Nov 12, 2011 11:52:30 PM)
*Smirks a little at Paige*

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:52:34 PM)
*While Daniel talks, Jeff is googling Brite Cleaning in his phone.*

Daniel Parker (Nov 12, 2011 11:53:36 PM)
*Jeff - there are a few with the same name, though the only ref you find to a local N.O business is through google maps. NO advertising, no listed phone number

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:54:16 PM)
*Jeff saves the address to memory and checks the neighbourhood using the sattelite view from google maps.*

Jeff Pines (Nov 12, 2011 11:54:34 PM)
((Not that he is likely to see much in the tiny screen))

Paige Villawood (Nov 12, 2011 11:55:15 PM)
Well... *She thinks as she leans back.* We need a list of their business addresses and assets, and their employment roster. Do we have the strange phone number?
