The Gig [Finished]

[accalia]

"If that is your wish, then it is my command." Tony says, his tone completely serious, but the twitch of his mouth and a twinkle in his eyes shows he is joking.

[yamikuronue]

Vic glances up hastily, but relaxes when he sees the twinkle, his worried lips relaxing into a smile. "Good." he says, relieved.

[accalia]

Tony nods and continues driving, eventually he parks in the lot of a convenience store. "The location's about a block away. We'll leave the car here and i'll figure out how to pick it up again later."

[yamikuronue]

Vic pads after him, following to the car. The car is beat-up, but not overly so; enough to make it blend in, without being rusted or otherwise unsafe to drive. There are, of course, no plates, just in case.

[accalia]

Tony looks the car over carefully "I expected something..... in better repair" he comments as he walks to the trunk and pops the lid.

[yamikuronue]

"Why? It's going to get impounded someday," says Vic, shrugging. "These things always go wrong eventual-- hey!" he protests, realizing too late what Tony's doing.

The trunk is packed with what look like military-grade weapons, including... are those grenades? Wow.

[accalia]

Tony nods, smiling. he expected as much. "On a scale of 'Good Idea' to 'Suicide' where would disabling all these before bringing them in fall?"

it wouldn't be too hard, a couple of seconds with pliers would break or bend the firing pins and the grenades..... no those are a biiit too dangerous to mess with.

[yamikuronue]

Vic stares at him. "Suicidal. Definitely."

[accalia]

"Yeah, probably." Tony says, sighing and closing the trunk. "Remind me later, i have got to teach you how to drive."

[yamikuronue]

"Yessir," chirps Vic, climbing into the passenger seat.

[accalia]

"I ain't no 'sir', sir's can't be friends. Let's go." Tony gets into the car and turns the key...

[yamikuronue]

Vic blushes again. "Friends," he echoes, oddly.

[accalia]

"Indeed." The car coughs to life on the first try, much to Tony's surprise. He crunches the car into gear and winces at the sounds coming from the gearbox "I really hope we don't need a wrecker.... but i'm not sure this will make the trip back.... Okay, Plan B. Let's hope there's nothing hidden in this car."

Tony turns the wrong way out of the alley, heading towards where he'd parked his car, instead of towards home.

[yamikuronue]

"You;'ll have to take your plates off," cautions Vic. "And not get caught, they'll think you're stealing the cargo. I can show you where stuff'd be hidden if we want to look."

[accalia]

"Removing my plates would make the car more suspicious." Tony argues as he parkes the barely holding together car. "The local police know my car, and seeing it without plates will certainly get us pulled over where we'd otherwise be more or less ignored."
