"Hey Peet" Renold called across the lab, " Can you bring over more GN-798 when your in the cooler? I think I've gotten the mix right for this new batch." Renold continued to adjust settings in AR while taking carefully documented notes on over 40 different reactions occuring.
"Yeah no problem boss" Peet laughed "I'm never gonna get used to calling you that, but hey you deserved it, Evo put on a pretty good reception for you to." The small Azlander went into the cooler past racks of embrios and good to find the one Renold had asked for. "GN-791 GN-792........ ah here it is GN-798. we better get the recipe right soon, The head of Sian is really breathing down our necks to get this new pain killer out to our surgical divisions"
Peet returned a few minutes later and set the bottle of milky liquid down on Renold's desk then went back to review the notes being sent to his terminal. It was a pretty average day until Peet called out in shock. luckily Reynold wasn't mixing and had his programs set to auto observe for now. "Holy crap Peet you just took 5 years off my life - what happened?"
Peet turned pale as he shared the video feed from his home - 3 men entered and took the kids. How did anyone know they were there? not to mention security - his second apartment was guaranteed for privacy but those 3 walked right in, grabbed the kids and Renolds hard-copy back-up research and left - shooting out the main camera in the process. "You've gotta be shitting me - who the hell are those guys - way to cocky for runners.... but why us?" exclaimed Renold.
"Well, lets try to find out what we can... I doubt the Corp will help us get the kids and theres no way I'm telling Mr. Granden that we lost 9 months of hard research that should have never left lab servers..." Pete looked flush with worry watching the clip again. "guess theres gonna be no holiday this year."
It took Renold and Peet almost 2 days to find out what to do, the final choice was to hire runners to get the data and boys back. Word had it there was a little dwarf who got stuff done, his rep was pretty good within one of Peet's circles. Armed with a contact number and a good understanding of trid they gave him a call - no one answered but Peet left a message. "Hello.... Badger? My name is..... Johnson..... and I need to hire some people to get my Kids back.... I can pay.. can we meet up?"
Peet waited around and got a blimp message back... no voice... not an ID he recognised... It simply stated a location and time. They arrived at a small cafe located in a park near Renton where they saw a small Dwarf sitting at a table - with a well dressed Ork sitting nearby. As the pair approached the table Badger and his boy looked over at the 2 shaky men walking towards them. "Oy! Was beginin' to think you boys weren't gonna make it here. well come on, have a sit down and let Badger know the details." Badger took a sip of somekind of tea.
The pair approached and sat down, Renold very nervous near the Ork who was eyeing him up. "Well Mr Badger... you see weve lost some things and were looking to get them back... discreetly." studdered out Renold. "Well more like they were taken and we want them back." shot Peet " I'm very worried for these two Kids and its of utmost priority that they are returned to us quickly." Peet sent Badger the footage of the break in. Renold chipped in "They also took some data, that briefcase you see, I also need it back." Badger sat silent for a few minutes reviewing the content and began to skim through a commlink niether of the Guys picked up on the local networks. "We have no problems meeting with the group if needed, I know a nice place in the North... Ziek's Lounge..." Renold nervously eyed up the Ork standing to Badger's side "It has a dress code though, I'm sure your boys wont mind right?"
Badger lifted a bushy eyebrow to Renold's demeanor towards his companion and made a note, "Right-O, I know some lads who can do it, but it wont be cheap and they take payment in cret cred - I'm sure you boys understand atleast the basic intricacies of what your asking correct?" Renold and Peet nervoulsy nodded and slid Badger a Cred Stick. The Ork reached down to pick it up, Renold winced, and within a few seconds the Ork gave Badger a nod after checking it. "Well Gentlemen, we have an accord. name the time and I'll have some of my lads meet with you.
Peet send Badger 7:30 at Ziek's, Corner Balcony. Badger smiled, "well see you then, Boys." Badger finished his Tea then got up and walked away walking proudly with his cane and bowler hat. Peet looked over at Renold "Well were in the fire now, I hope this goes well."
Renold replied still shocked "It better, or this will be the last thing we ever do."
"Yeah no problem boss" Peet laughed "I'm never gonna get used to calling you that, but hey you deserved it, Evo put on a pretty good reception for you to."
