They had gotten home and she made a call on a cellular phone and told them she had a package for pick up but it was damaged goods(not alive). They confirmed and would send out a retrieval team to collect the package and her "finders fee and hazardous pay" would be wired into her account the momment the find was confirmed.
Bridget and Sanchez removed thier body armor off and Bridget hadn't realized that the lycans claws had penetrated her armor and clawed her fairly well. Her right shoulder was hurting and she found out it was dislocated and had Sanchez put it back into place. Her right leg was still somewhat numb from kicking the lycan
but it was getting better. Sanchez's armor wasn't as badly beat up as Bridget's but his left side ribs were very sore, his head hurt along with his back from being slammed into the wall. All in all they were lucky the second Lycan didn't hand them thier collective heads to them...but they had pulled it off. But first things first and that was putting themselves back together with first aid and some foul smelling
salves and teas to help with the healing(she had picked up from her friend Monique- doctor and part time Voodoo priestess).
Until they got here Bridget could examine the creature at her leisure(except
for the head which had been blown off) and try to figure out some of the technical data of this thing. She wasn't a scientist per-se' but she did have enough tech. info
in her head to give her some idea what they had been up to. This was cutting edge tech...and some of it wasn't suppose to exist at this time. "No wonder the government wanted them back; that and it's hard to tell the public that there are pyschotic lycan cyborgs on the loose." thought Bridget as she continued to do her
preliminary exam.
Sure enough a military helicopter showed up and some people got out and came inside where thier 'package' was. There was very little chit-chat between Bridget, Sanchez and the 'Coats'(scientists). And after it was confirmed the call was made and Bridget and Sanchez became suddenly 'flushed' with money. They did ask about X1 and was told it took an 11 story plunge into the water...but they were certain the fall didn't injure it. So they took X2's body minus the head with them to whatever place they had come from leaving Sanchez and Bridget alone again.

Bridget and Sanchez spent the next several days just "goofing" off and letting themselves heal. Monique's salves and teas seemed to be doing the trick and both
were feeling good except for a little tenderness for Sanchez and the wounds across Bridgets chest(they had closed were healing nicely).
"this city is going to be a mess when the water goes down...all the crap will be lying
on the pavement along with those poor bastards that didn't get out of the way when the water came down the Hudson." thought Bridget. She also wondered how Will was healing up and about this new Hunter group called "the Underground".
"Well i better get busy working on the one EMP shell she had finally dissected and was now going thru it's guts to see how it worked." speaking mostly to herself.
Sanchez was going over our supplies, weapons & ammo, and the body armor.
Bridget's chest plate was totally non-functional. They would have to go to the "Shop" and pick up a chest plate for her. Other than that they were in good shape.

In fact it was time to see if this shop carried anything better in the way of body armor.. more flexible, lighter, better stopping power against bullet and blade. "Let's go shoping." Bridget seemed more cheerful and was moving around
much better as was Sanchez. "We'll go to the shop and see what they have or get it custom made..either way it'll be fun." Bridget garabbed her shoulder holster and
pistols, sawed-off shoutgun and went to the window they had been using as thier door." "C'mon Sanchez it'll do us both good." as he began to get his stuff and headed for the window..
Once the window was secured they started up the motor and headed off for the store
(The Tech Shop)

Bridget and Sanchez pulled up in a boat just as Tokeru was banging on the window sill. "Don't you know that looters can be shot" Bridget said in a slightly comical way. "Why don't you help us unload our stuff and we'll have a beer and talk this out." "Oh...and by the way this tall,dark, and hispanic is Sanchez."
It took them 15 minutes to unload everything they had collected and they found themselves sitting in the living room with a bottle of beer.. "What can I do for you
Tokeru?"

Bridget looked at Tokeru and half-smiled "Not an auspicious beginning .... But let me know when you find her then we can have a sit down." She glance at Sanchez
who was behind Tokeru and and he just shrugged and went to the fridge again and got another beer.

There is a creature we sort of have a free-lance job on it... "A recovery mission"
of sorts. "You're welcome to come with me and Sanchez, just make sure you have body armor I'll supply the weapons (special --made for just about this mission).
"We have it's general location but can narrow it down to a building or such... then it's good old Grunt work" "It's mean..it's fast... and very dangerous.... Still want in?"
((Exit to city))

For the next couple of weeks Bridget was over in the area of the apartment which
had been converted as her 'work shop' Besides a mess of gadgets and what-ever
there were the tech manuals she spent time going over. Sanchez was amazed at how fast she read and still remember the details.
Sanchez kept the generator working when there was need otherwise it was candle
and kerosene lamps. The water had begun to show some signs that the water level was beginning to drop.

Bridget played Zin's speech over again for the umphteen time listening to him tell
his fellow "Hunters" that Lunite children were deadly from the age of 8. She also heard his percise orders to kill them before they kill you... "Turn your back on them and they'll slit your throat." was Zin's words.
She didn't go looking for them so she could kill them.... it just turned out that way
... Karma is Karma ... neh. She had the tape audio/video courtesy of some clients in the government sector(they had blackmailed one of the hunters to get
intel on Zin and his "Hunters"). She in turn had the tape duplicated both audio and
audio/video as insurance. If she was going to 'burn' for this one she wouldn't be the only person going down.
The only nitemares she had was the slaughter of the Lunites by some of the cruelist means ever and making trophies from the bodies. This stunned her more
because Zin let it happen.
Bridget would take on whatever/whoever came after her if they wanted retribution
for those children. She was a true "Hunter" taking down the nite-creatures that
threatened the existence of mankind....and she was skilled enough to do that.
She packaged the CD and gave it to Sanchez to be delivered to Will at the Hunter's
Club. Then she went back to work in her private little corner.... the government had given her some new experimental gadgets and ammo to try out.
((Sanchez goes to Hunter's Club))

Bridget heard the sound of the motor boat come along side the Brownstone and
stop. "Did he get the CD? asked Bridget. Sanchez nodded in the affirmative and went to the Frig to get a cool beer. Well let the games begin; because tomorrow
things were going to heat up. She said good-nite to Sanchez and went to her sectioned off area she called her bedroom and closed her eyes and tried to remember any good times she had(there wasn't).
