Caitriona O' Connell
Moriarty Gathering Mission

    In the rhythmic thumping of the crappy car they were riding, Caitriona O' Connell sat in the passengers seat. She had her arms folded while she was looking out the window. Her long red hair was blowing in all directions from the wind because the window was partially broken from the previous owner.

    Tri as she was affectionately known as, didn't appear bothered by the burst of wind coming through. In fact, she had no expression at all. Her blue eyes just continued to stare out the window as they passed cars by toward their destination. Her mind trying to stay focus on the task at hand.

    Her ears however, could not drown out the complaints of her assigned partner. This did irritate her for Tri could only take so much of the whinnying.

    "Calm ya livva man." she said in a thick southie accent as she turned her head to look at her partner, Hal McIlhenny. He was a young male around twenty-three with close cropped brown hair and bright green eyes. The boss for some reason thought they could work together and find out the truth on the man they are meeting. She hoped, Hal could just shut up about the car and get focused on the job at hand.

    "Yes the cah is a piece crap, but it will do the job. We need to keep a low profile, we don't wanna draw any attention to ourselves"

    They were supposed to meet the man in a well known strip joint that is suppose to be considered classy by most club standards. Tri doubted it and if anyone has the nerve to think she is one the dancers, well Tri would just have to teach them a lesson.

GM APPROVED

Name: Jack Donahue
Alias (if Applicable): Deuces
Age: 27

Faction: With a name like Donahue, do ya really gotta ask... (Moriaty for those not familiar with the name)
Position: Hi-Stakes Gambler, Assassin, Advisor

Appearance: Very bald but with bright red bushy eyebrows, Peircing emerald green eyes, a crooked nose broken to the left, a silly grin, and kinda bulky but graceful.
Clothes: Tends to wear black clothes that are loose, black jeans and such. But always has on a plaid button-up overshirt, be it longsleeve or short. A blue jean bucket hat is a constant, with a duece of spades sticking out of the black leather belt around it. Also there tends to be a couple of darts in that loop. Soft black leather boots without heavy soles are his favorite footwear.
Weapons: Various switch blades hidden on his person, as well as a razor in one boot, a remmington pistol and various rifles from military grade sniper to old winchesters. Other than that, whatever he can get his hands on in any given situation.
Hair: none
Eyes: green enough to cut out the soul...

Bio: He grew up on the streets, fighting for his bread and whatever else he wanted. Street fighting techniques are very obvious in his methods, but also a lot of wisdom for what many would see as a cocky kid of 27.

He was initiated into the "family" when he caused a mission to be botched by simply being there. One of the hired men went over to take care of him, and wound up with a slit throat and a cut up face. Dueces left his calling card (the deuce of spades) on the body. He was going to slip away, but a "family" member had seen what he did and called him over. He was offered a job as a basic thug, which was definitely better than his previous life.

He rose through the ranks, and quickly gained a rep for drunken debauchery high even by the irish standards, but he was also amazingly blessed when it came to operations that needed killing people. He also had a knack for spotting the problems in an op, and figuring rather unique ways around them. Only in the last two years has he actually been in contact with Seamus and sent on jobs by him, but there is a certain amount of respect between the two, as well as an odd sort of trust. After all, it was the Moriaty family that gave him any kind of life at all.


OOC: seeing as i have no clue where to fall in right this second, i'll wait and see where prenn wants to put me.

also fixed the typos and added something, shouldn't be a huge problem. if you don't like it simply let me know prenn.

Hal McIlhenny
Moriarty Gathering Mission

Hal gripped the steering wheel and clenched his jaw. He and Ms. O’Connell had been driving for a while now and she hadn’t said two words to him. Hal was a pretty soft-spoken guy, why say anything when a look will do? But he didn’t see anything wrong with small talk between business associates. Unfortunately, Hal was doing all of the talking.

At first, Hal had commented on the weather but that hadn’t seemed to interest her. Neither had movies, music, or television shows. So, Hal talked about what he knew best- cars. This particular car was in need of some serious repair, he could hear the carburetor begging for mercy. Somewhere along the line Hal's partner had misconstrued his disdain for the negligence of the car’s previous owner for complaining.

Calm my livva?” Hal would have chuckled if he hadn’t felt slighted. “Who says I’m upset, huh? So it ain’t a high class cah, I undastand, but that don’t mean you can’t show her a little love. Alls I’m tryin’ ta say is a cah don’t have to be new to be functionable.”

Hal had a feeling this ride was going to be too long for his liking.

Alastor arrived in Seamus’ office right on time, ready to be given his assignment. Seamus Moriarty always liked it when his pawns were on time. It gave them an attribute of obedience, to know when and where to be somewhere. Help like that was hard to find these days, that much the Moriarty don knew.

Seamus’ office was pleasantly large and luxuriously decorated. The carpet was a darkened beige color, and the walls were painted a healthy shade of red with a few pictures scattered throughout. There were two sofas in the room, both a light khaki color with mahogany trim, with a short, rectangular mahogany table in between. Atop this table were two vases, and it was evident that their patinas were regularly cleaned and polished, to accentuate their value.

“Alastor!” Seamus exclaimed as the Executioner entered the room. The boss, as he was affectionately called, sat on the first sofa in the room with a lovely woman adorned only in seductive lingerie sitting in his lap. The woman climbed off as soon as the assassin entered the capacious room, per her boss’s orders. “Good to see yeh, me boy.” The don’s Irish ancestry was evident in his thickly accented voice. “Look, I’m going to get straight down to business. 'is was with 'eh LoGrasso's has gone to far. There's a family. A friend of a friend." Seamus handed the man over a manila envelope, with more than enough information. "Take care o' the whole family. I wan' 'em gone."

“I’m going to leave it at that. I want you to send a message to the LoGrasso’s. Don’t hesitate on this one, me boy.”


TAG: Alastor McRea


IC: Alastor McRea


Alastor took the envelope from Seamus and tucked it under his left arm. "Sir? Is there any particluar way you want this family to, 'dissapear'?" Alastor alowed himself a small smile, not one of happiness, but a sadistic smile at the business he had gotten so good at, "Some 'messages' go across better than others, i've learned. And I'm quite capable of delivering any message you want me to Sir." He left out the details fo what he could do not because of the Boss' presence, but because of his company. For all Alastor knew the woman had seen just as much death as he had given, but he still remaind a gentelmen whenever possible. He simple waited for the Boss to reply at his own pace.

As close to royalty as they came, Mia LoGrasso was serious business. Whenever she went anywhere, there was at least two men with her. On this particular day, there were only two, mainly because of the line of work they were doing. The members of the party, Mia, Brendon, and Roman Dolano, were all very excited. For the first time, the Boss had shown them some trust. They didn't want to screw it up.

Their job was pretty simple, but it was going to take some eloquence. The Boston RedSox were playing a game at the park, and their owner was of course going to be there. Their owner who had "bad habit".

Anthony LoGrasso liked people with bad habits. He got the most profit from bad habits. and this time was no different. Troy Epstien owed the boss some serious money, and it was these guys' job to collect.

Knowing that something big was going to go down, Roman was hoping for some opportunity to make some contact with his real employers, but if worse came to worse, that could wait.


TAG: Mia, Roman, Brendon (it doesn't look like MoonlightsAngel has signed on in a while, so if you want to, you guys can just act like she's with you, and go ahead and find the owner and muscle some money out of him, and she can catch up later.)


ShadowofMiracles, Darth_Joesha, Reynar_Tedros

Allegra Giovanni needed no man (or woman's) help. Be that as it may, that's precisely what Alex Sullivan and Marco Guerrero were there for. Since the advent of the War, the boss had insisted that everybody travel in twos or threes, and do business that day as well. Not many liked it, but they did comply.

So there they sat, at a table for three. Leonardo's, an eloquent Italian restaurant favored by the boss for business deals. Allegra knew her instructions. Behind the toilet in the woman's bathroom was a pistol. As soon as her target walked through the door, she was to go get that. Alex and Marco were to make their way over and forcefully sit at the table of the man, hopefully intimidating him, but without causing a ruckus. This guy had some info, and this team was to "extract it", by whatever means necessary. And then, they had to bring him back. Alive.

As a balding, short business man walked through the door, and arrived at his destination (a small table in the back, against a wall), one of the members started. Sitting across from her, Allegre saw her uncle, the target. Anthony had taken out a job on his own brother?

Trimaj

Fenway Park
was one of Jack's favorite places. It was no wonder, then, that he had jumped at this opportunity. He and another Lackey were told to get some cash from the RedSox owner. Jack thought that he would probably watch the game a bit, and go do his business some time during the seventh inning stretch, between some great hot dogs.

Little did he know, he would have some competition today...

TAG: Jack (See TOG and Pullus post)

GM- Melot and Tee, you guys can go ahead and post your arrival at the club, and start "meeting" with the man. TAG me when you need me to respond for him.

IC: Jack "Deuces" Donahue/ Second Level, Fenway Park/ Boston


Today was just not the Redsoxs day. Schilling was on the mound, and it was one of those rare ones when no matter what he did, perfect pitch or no, the freaking Yankees were all over it. Deuces sat and watched as Derek Jeter smacked one into left field for a two base hit. "Oh, how aye'd lieke some time ahlone in ah li'l room with 'im." The lackey, one Bobby O'Connor, sat beside Jack and nodded his head slowly.

Taking a swig of his guiness he roared at Bobby's discomfort. "Ya'll ne'er last long if yer squeamish man. Don' ya know that?" Wiping the sweat from his bald pate, the heat on being typical for Boston summer, he stood up quite a bit earlier than he'd wanted to. "Seems like the only pleasure we'll be gettin' outta today's the actual business we were sent on. C'mon, we got a meetin' ta get ta." It was only the sixth inning, but going an inning early surely wouldn't hurt. After all, not that much could happen within the next fourty-five minutes or so. Yea, and thuh Sox's'll comeback and take them damn Yanks.

Bobby stood up, "But Jack, ain't we supposed ta wait? What if he's got some visitors he don' want us seein'?" The nerves that he felt were readily apparent in his voice being jumpy.

Jack glanced at him and fought back a laugh. "Well, that'll be 'is problem as aye be seein' it Bobby. Now le's go." Heading up the stairs back into the halls, there wasn't any one particularly suspicious looking. No one that appeared like they could be a Lagrosso, but appearances coudl always decieve. Especially Jack after he'd had a few Daniels in him, which thankfully for everyone involved wasn't the case today.

Heading up towards the luxery boxes, which consequently was where the owners box was there were a few guards to make sure that no one who didn't have a pass could get through. This would be the first obstacle. Jack decided to ignore them until the forced some sort of reaction. There were three of them, standing at the foot of the stairs leading towards the luxery area. Jack put his right foot on the first stair, wondering what was going to happen...

Gene Bryant Hickey

The promising young agent had just gotten back to the facilities after his brief day off, dressed in pale brown dress-slacks, tattered, "classic" style 1460 Doc Marten boots and an almost half child-like, half 60's drug-addict yellow t-shirt adorned with an odd caricature of a deformed Quentin Tarantino battling deranged bees with what seemed like a boomerang, a humorous onomatopoeiacal phrasing of words like "POW!" and "BLAM!" scattered across the bizzare image. Gene didn't appear like much of an FBI agent, or in any way, a professional, but that was the major point of his career; to hide in plain sight.

Underneath that wiry, negligent demeanor, behind those face-covering aviators, and beneath that stylish, blood-red leather jacket sat the heart of a lion, and the cold steel of a .45 calibre handgun.

The moment he stepped foot into the offices of this particular FBI building, the one he'd been expecting to waste half of his day typing random numbers into a computer in his cubicle, he was quickly approached by a young lady clutching a stack of folders in her arms who's name he'd forgotten. He paused, judging that by her expression, her name wasn't of much consequence. He sighed quietly, figuring that an agent of such an "esteemed" organisation... never really had a day off to begin with.

He nodded, motioning for the woman to give him the news. "Tha Chief's waitin' for ya in 'is office. Says it's important. He was bein' very concise. I think ya may be in some trouble, Otto. Hehe.", she ended with a soft chuckle as she eyed his interesting attire. Gene shrugged as he caught a glimpse of the papers she carried, "Are those mine?", knowing the answer and moving swiftly towards the back of the hall and into the nearest elevator. The air-tight double doors shut infront of him and the shaft made it's way skywards towards his boss' office. He contimplated silently to himself on how he'd managed to make someone know him, but not the other way around.

"... Otto, Otto, Otto. W-T-F.", he mumbled to himself as the elevator doors slid ajar. He strolled respectively into Mr. Booker's office and sat down, arching his back against the leather seat as he stood up straight, removing his sun-glasses and hanging them over the collar of his shirt before nodding to Ed with utmost respect. "Sir?"

"Otto, you and I've known each other for a long time," the stoic man began, his large hands clasped atop the mahogany desk, a small plate with his surname and level on education etched on it. He continued, and Hickey nodded slowly, not blinking whatsoever as though he had a kink in his neck. "You've been serving in my unit for over a decade now, and you've never disappointed us before. You know what the hell you're doing out there, and that's more than any Chief of the FBI can ask for in an Agent."

Gene figured that from now on, the only news was moderately decent news. As for good news, there never was any. For some reason, despite the apparent seriousness of the situation, an odd thought came upon Gene; did Ed find his clothing awkward, or reasonable given his position? He shook his head free of the though, and Booker looked at him suspiciously.

".. no?"

"Huh.. oh, oh yeah. Please, sir, carry on."

"... right. Well, son.", he resumed before pausing again, "... look, I'm not really good at these kinds of things, so I'm gonna get to it. We've decided to promote you to Head of the White Collar division."

".. what?"

"I said-"

"No.. I mean. You're saying.. I'm not fire-"

"'course not, son, what'd ever give you that idea?"

"... I dunno.. well, that's great!"

They both stared blankly at one another, before Booker dropped an envelope on Gene's side of the desk. "This is a good place to start. Assemble your team, and get started."

Hickey grabbed the envelope and briskly slid it into the inner-lining of his jacket, within a concealed pocket. He figured that by the context of Chief Booker's words, it was a set of directions or something related to a rendezvois. He stood up and nodded once again to his boss before exitting, his shades finding their way back over the bridge of his nose.

IC: Mia LoGrasso
Troy Epstein's Office


Dressed in a white, short, light summer dress, with her hair neatly combed and adorned by a white ribbon, Mia LoGrasso pretended to be very interested in the stunning young woman looking back at her from the small mirror on her hand as she sat before the visibly uneasy Troy Epstein, who sat rigidly on the other side of his desk. Beside her, a very young, restless fox kit sat obidiently, obviously looking around for something to chew on. Quite an odd pet, and expensive at that, but if someone could afford to give his daughter such a rare, uncomon birthday gift, that was Anthony LoGrasso.

“What can I help you with, Miss?” he asked in a cool voice. Mia’s well trained ears, however, could identify the slight, nervous tremble on it, making a small, attractive smile grace her full lips and bright eyes.

“It is awfully warm today, wouldn’t you agree, Mister Epstein?” she deliberately ignored the man’s question, raising her delicate left hand to fix something on her lower lip, a thick white bangle changing position upon her slender wrist. She liked the way white contrasted with her recently tanned skin, gift from her latest trip to the beach.

Mia’s teasing observation hung in the air for a moment as she put the mirror back on her purse.Troy Epstein's tension grew thicker as the young woman turned to smile teasingly at her partners.

“Well, you see, sir” she started, looking back at the RedSox owner “I am acutally here on some business” she stopped and looked back at her partners “Oh gods, where have my manners gone?” she asked, still teasing the now visibly nervous man “And yours as well” she added, staring at Toohey and Roman with a playfully accusing gaze “You two should introduce yourselves…and as I am here merely as a diplomatic presence, Roman, why don’t you answer Mister Epstein’s earlier question? I believe I’m talking an awful lot, and this might get kind of boring…”

Mia’s intense gaze settled upon the handsome man, a benign smile shinning on her eyes as the rest of her face remained utterly calm. She didn’t trust him. Something about Roman Dolano and his sudden appearance three years ago had made the LoGrasso ’princess’ uneasy since the very beginning. Alas, her quite resourceful, wide network, had different suspicions involving quite a range of ‘disappeared’ men, three of which were safely behind bars. Still, she had no real proof, and her father had told her she was just being paranoid.

Looking back at their current ‘assigment’, who was staring uneasily from Toohey to Dolano, she smiled again as the man shifted uneasily in his seat. Obviously, Troy Epstein was no idiot.

Culain leant down and picked up the whisky bottle as it rolled into his foot, He hadn't been too pleased when his uncle had sent him on a bloody delivery run, and in what was apparently enemy territory as well. It seemed like rubbing their faces in it, like opening a catholic store across from a loyalist pub back home. He shook the bottle at the two men with him as they all stopped work for a moment "All dis movin bloody baxes is tirsty work eh lads?" he quipped as he twisted the top off the bottle and took a deep swig, winking as he savored the heat rushing down his throat, the hard eyed young man tossed the bottle to the others "oye dont tink anyone would moind if we had a wee dram to keep us warm" he said as he absently scratched the large Veritas tattoo emblazoned across his forearm.
