Summary
Hired to find a wealthy womans kidnapped toy poodle, the team follows clues to the perpetrators.
Background
Every thursday, Alejandro the fluorescent pink toy poodle has an appointment with Reynolds Green, who runs a mobile Dog Grooming Salon. Alejandro's caretaker, Alison Hobair, then picks him up and takes him to the Doggie Gym for exercise. This Thursday, Alisons ex-boyfriend Joe Manche used knowledge gained during his time dating her to go after what he though of as an easy mark. He pulled together some friends, and masterminded a plan to dognap the poodle and demand a ransom. They were going to be rich!
The team consisted of Joe, the mastermind. His current girlfriend, the Rocker Deirdre, brought access to the meet location. His drinking buddy the Mongolian nicknamed Khan, provided muscle. Khans girlfriend, a small time gang leader named Rita, brought extra muscle, a van, and goons. Finally, Rick was pulled in as the resident techie and nerd.
Khan, Rita, and Deirdre made the snatch, but when Alejandro bit Rita she smacked the dog. Reynolds tried to go to the dog on reflex, and Khan slammed the man in the head, killing him. Alison arrives as they discuss, and they strike her, knocking the young woman unconcsious. They panic, driving Greens van into the barrens where they ripped the electronics and left it behind a building with the corpse. Allison is stashed in the upstairs of The Morgue, a punk venue and bar in Touristville. The dog goes to a shaman's place theyve paid to stay under his wards for a few days. Rita stays there with the dog and some of her goons.
Rick sends the ransom message from a burner, "Meet us at The Morgue on the corner of (Grater) and (Young) in Touristville. Bring 5 gold cresticks with 100k each. Friday at 11PM. Dont be late. Come alone, tell no one. Failure to follow instructions and we kill Alejandro."
Their plan: Joe and Khan do the meet, get the payment. Once they have that, Rita drives up from where shes waiting behind a ward, shoves the dog out of the car into the back alley. Rick works nights at The Morgue on the tech, and will keep an eye out on the sensors. Deirdre is playing that night, and can help as needed. Rita will have a few of her gangers at the club, to protect her part, and make sure everything goes off.
The Meet
The team meets the J at a small buffet restaurant in north bellevue. They discuss, haggle, and agree on price. They figure out the J seems to be working a side favor, and is likely in a relationship with the client. The J tells them the client insisted on meeting them. Job is to retrieve Alejandro, and a bonus if they "deal with" the kidnappers. The J is haggled into throwing an additional bonus, if they dont upset the client when they meet with her. The J seems not to know if Alejandro is a lover or child, and seems unsettled with either option given his apparent connection to the client.
They meet the client at one of her places, a penthouse in a bellevue condo. She tells them more details, and when they ask for a picture, they see that Alejandro is a fluorescent pink toy poodle. They find out what the client knows of the kidnapping, verify the level of punishment she wants for the kidnappers.
