"Well come on in...make sure you take your shoes off....I don't like tracking up the floor with mud and such." She hobbles over to the couch and indicates for Tokeru to sit.... "Well what is it i can do for you?"

"I'm not under William's control as a soldier.... I originally went in because a friend and myself accidently discovered the Lunites Den." "From his actions I see a very tired man trying to get by.... I followed every aspect of the mission and was dressed down for it." "If he wanted prisoners or the children spared(which would have been iffy at best he should have stated so in the mission prep)."
"Being a Hunter means you hunt the creatures that seek to use humans as food or worse." " I've a partner and we can operate alone as the need calls for it and we do fairly well." "I'll be fully operational by the end of the week and then my friend and I are going "Hunting".
I also didn't care for the actions of several of his "Hunters" who took trophies and despoiled the bodies even after the fighting was done. Yet they were not called in for thier actions..because they were people he knew. There is a double-standard there or i sure as hell felt it.
"By the way are you thirsty....I have some beer in the refrigerator." Bridget wondered what Tokeru was going to say after her little tyraid. She just waited for him to say something.

"No, I have never heard of this "Underground"... are they a group of hunters also like Will's group?" Bridget went over to the Refrigerator and retrieved two beers. She tossed on to Tokeru. "Are you thinking of joining this "Underground" group instead of doing sticking with Will?" Bridget sat there studying this young man trying to get a read off him. She sat there sipping on her beer.

I don't know if I would fit in with them any better than I did with William. But it wouldn't hurt to meet them and see what they're all about. When did you want to go and see them...I'm still nursing a wound in my right leg.

That seems reasonable ... I would like to meet them also if they are half of what you say they are. Bridget looked into Tokeru and saw no deciet in his eyes or body language....he was speaking the truth as he knew it to be. "Yes set up a meeting and we'll both go and meet with these hunters.

(( this occurred before the flood))
"Very well set up a time and meeting and i'll be there".. She got up off the couch and escorted Tokeru to the door. "Sounds like an interesting group....we may hit it right off(she smiled)." Now that his was gone she could be lazy and let her leg heal up as she layed down on the couch and feel asleep. She never heard the sirens or the frantic noise people make when they know they're in deep trouble.
When she did get up she wandered to the window to look out..."The rain has stopped at least that some comfort...then she looked down and was stunned the streets were flooded. "Man someone up there likes to play games..and shook her head. She went downstairs to check on the other tenants and found they had made it out most likely and the water was only to her ankle in the Brownstone. She did find a rubber raft that hadn't been inflated and took it upstairs...she would have means of travel at least.

Bridget made it back to the residence and her apartment with a big hole in the raft where someone had jumped into the raft. It was a miracle that the raft stayed afloat; she would need something more sturdy. She unloaded the supplies that she still had before the girl jumped into the raft.
She had an idea where she might get a boat, but that would mean relying on a busted raft... "Oh hell...no guts no glory" Bridget thougt and went back out into the flooded streets... This time she let the currents carry her along towards the river and boat docks.
(( to the docks ))

She and Sanchez unloaded the boat and settled in for the night... Sanchez had the couch and Bridget the bed and they both slept til it was about 9am. Bridget looked at Sanchez ..."there are all those large ships and Liners down at the Docks just waiting to be searched we pack up and go shopping." They had a quick breakfast and left prepared for anyting they might run into. They got in the boat and like the last Bridget let the currents do most of the work.

Bridget was waiting for Sanchez to return with the new weapon and the ammunition and her head moved towards the window when she heard the sound of a motor boat and reached for her pistol from her shoulder holster. She went to the window and breathed a sigh of relief it was Sanchez and went back to her tables with all sorts of circuitry and other clutter. Sanchez pulled up and tied up the boat(they had two boats now) and stepped out on the roof with the items Bridget had sent him shopping for.
"Run into any trouble out there?" asked Bridget. "No it was pretty quiet out there today....most people are staying inside." Bridget took the weapon and ammo from Sanchez and went to the table and cleared a space off. She took a shell from the case and placed it down on the table. The rest she set aside on the floor and told Sanchez to turn off all items that worked on batteries(the only electrical items that still worked). "I left you some stew simmering on the camp stove...thought you'ld be hungry." as Bridget continued to examine the shell under a powerful magnifing glass.
Sanchez spent the time cleaning the weapons and checking out the new items he had picked up. Bridget was busy slowly taking the shell apart and had managed to open up the casing. She was now going over the wiring and circuits in the shell. "This is going to take a lot longer than I thought." mumbled Bridget and Sanchez looked up and asked if she said anything. "Not really ...it's just that i thought it would be easier but this will take months to reverse engineer."
"Still I will crack it and then order only necessary parts. Are we sure the two targets are where they were last spotted.?" "Yes." was all Sanchez said ... Then we go hunting tomorrow."
