Contact at the Coast

Clash walked down the street of Downtown Hydropolis. Looking for his next assignment as a bounty hunter. He sat down outside a small cafe and waited breifly. He looked around then he coughed into his arm and scratched the back of his head. As if on cue, Clash's phone vibrated, showing he had a message. He opened it up and read, "Underneath." Clash closed his phone and felt beneath the table he was at. Someone had carved a message in brail, upon further inspection, Clash whispered to himself, "Kill... The... Captain... On.... The... Titan... Cruiser..." Clash took a mental note and stood up, dusting himself off and walking down to the harbor.

An easily-distinguishable silver vixen walked through the same streets.  Two chief attributes made this fox so noticeable were her bright, piercing ice/electric blue eyes and her five tails...although when it came to Hydropolis, as with many of the major cities, what might be oddities anywhere else weren't given so much as a second thought.  Blending in was all right for the kitsune at the moment anyway...she'd just finished the last of today's meetings with several of her contacts, informants for the Guardians, and directed her steps towards the cruise ship that served as her safehouse.  Jayne Granger - for this was her name - caught sight of some spines she hadn't seen in months...and upon seeing this green hedgehog her tail-fur prickled, and recollection came to mind the violet gemstone whose finding said hedgehog had a lot to do with.  So she hurried her steps to catch up with him, although he appeared to have a definite business in mind at the moment.  Once fairly near, she questioningly called out, "Clash?"

Clash looked back and noticed a well-known kitsune, whom he had adventures with in the past. "Well holy hopping hedgehogs! If it isn't Jayne Granger!" Clash began to make his way through the crowd to Jayne and finally made it to her. "I haven't seen you in quite some time! What's up?" He said, reaching up his hand for a high-five.

[So.  Finally replying after it didn't accept the earlier posts and there was much ragequit.]

Although to her chagrin and the irritation of all the people she brushed past and pushed back, the kitsune soon stood by the hedgehog's side.  "Hiya!"  She grinned, giving him the high-five then crossing her arms, tails flicking, apparently that enough to deter the streams of people also walking in the area through the busy city.  "How're you doing, what brings you here, and all the usual other questions?"  Another, slyer kitsune grin followed, since the last part was pretty vague.

Clash made a grin and shrugged casually. "Nice weather, need my exercise, and all the other usual answers." A horn sounded in the distance and made Clash's ears perk up. He looked back to the docks and saw the the ship he was close to departure. "Uh oh! I gotta go catch that boat!" Clash got ready to rush off but stopped himself, realizing how rude it would be to leave Jayne here by herself. "Uh, do you wanna come too?" He asked, looking back to her over his shoulder with his purple eyes.

Smirking as she listened, Jayne nodded to him as he answered.  She glanced up and onward at the sound of the horn.  "Oh!  I need to ca...wait.  You're going to the dock too?  I'm actually heading out to the Titan Cruiser, decided to go out on the water for a while since I'm in Hydropolis..."  She left the explanation at that...even though she knew Clash pretty well, she wasn't planning on spreading the word about Guardian operations...especially with GUN watching the city after an unmarked nuclear sub entered port last week.  She shuddered slightly and just went with the hedgehog.
