<O_Rex> <Trina> ::is typing up another report Mark requested that was delayed and all::
<Dark_Kat> ::mun laughs as DK evils his way to a telephone. device on it to keep it from being traced. huzzah. calls up Rex’s office!::
<Joseph_Forge> ::sets a cup o’ tea on her desk:: Mark got you working hard again huh?
<O_Rex> ::picks up!:: DM Octavious Rex.
<O_Rex> <Trina> I think he’s in a better mood.
<Joseph_Forge> ::smirks:: Oh really? ::pulls up a chair to sit by her and see whats she’s working on::
<Dark_Kat> ::grins:: How would you like to answer that differently, Rex?
<O_Rex> <Trina> Yeah. He doesn’t put anybody to work when he’s moping.
<O_Rex> ::arches a brow:: I beg your pardon?
<Joseph_Forge> ::busts up laughing:: Am I gonna have to talk to him about that? ::sips his coffee::
<O_Rex> <Trina> ::snorks:: Careful. ::grinning::
<Joseph_Forge> Mark don’t scare me. ::grins::
<O_Rex> <Trina> ::arches a brow::
<Joseph_Forge> He’s not standing behind me is he?
<Dark_Kat> Mayor Octavious Rex. Has a nice ring to it, don’t you think?
<O_Rex> May I ask who is this?
<Dark_Kat> I’m a concerned citizen of Megkat City who is disappointed with the current kats in charge. ::chuckles:: If you’re interested in learning how you can become Mayor of Megakat City, I’d rather discuss it face to face.
<O_Rex> I’m listening.
<O_Rex> <Trina> ::laughs:: No.
<Joseph_Forge> ::sigh of relief.:: Good. ::smirks:: You almost done?
<O_Rex> <Trina> Just a couple more sentences. Why?
<Joseph_Forge> Thought you and I could go spar a round in the gym if you wanted.
<Dark_Kat> Meet me downtown at 3453 Katalina street. Go in the back entrance and come alone.
<O_Rex> <Trina> Is this a challenge?
<O_Rex> Very well…
<Joseph_Forge> Yep. Besides, you humiliated me the first time we met. Time I evened the score…..Agent Korat. ::smiiiirks!::
<O_Rex> <Trina> ::snorks, finishes typing up, saves:: You’re on.
<Dark_Kat> Good. I will see you shortly. ::hangs up::
<Joseph_Forge> Meet you there. ::pats her back and gets up to go to the tom’s locker room::
<O_Rex> ::frowns, hangs up as well. Goes grab his coat and heads out::
<O_Rex> <Trina> ;;goes to the locker room to change and whatnot, then heads to the gym tying up her hair::
<Dark_Kat> ::awaits Rex inna daaark. cause y’know dark is all EVIL. -g- he’d copyright it but he can’t copyright the word Dark.::
<Joseph_Forge> ::comes in as well, setting his towel and some water on a bench. is in some grey track pants and a grey MBI t-shirt. heads over to the mats after kicking his shoes off:: You ready to get humiliated?
<Joseph_Forge> <Antonio>::Bwhahahaahaha! No you can’t! ……….CAUSE I COPYRIGHTED IT! BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH~::
<Dark_Kat> <Address>::leads Rex to an old closed department store::
<Dark_Kat> ((::DEAD::))
<O_Rex> ((::DIES!!::))
<O_Rex> <Trina> I can’t believe this. ::grinning, stretching::
<O_Rex> ::Arrives there!:: Hello?
<Joseph_Forge> Can’t believe what?
<O_Rex> <Trina> you’re challenging me?
<Joseph_Forge> Yep. I can’t challenge you at home so I challenge you here.
<Dark_Kat> <back room>::after he goes down a small hallway, issa dark, only a couple lights shine in room.:: <Dark Kat> Ah good. It’s nice to know you follow instructions properly. This will aid in your ascention to the mayoral position. ::chuckles, steps out of the shadows now revealing himself:: <creeplings>::accompanying him, emerge too::
<O_Rex> ::eyes wide:: You’re… ::then calmly:: Dark Kat. I HAVE heard about you.
<O_Rex> <Trina> Dork. ::gets into a stance::
<Joseph_Forge> Thank you. ::grins and gets into a stance:: your move.
<Dark_Kat> Few in Megakat haven’t. ::stands now some feet from him, leaning on his cane::
<O_Rex> <Trina> ::charges:
<Joseph_Forge> ::will try and side step, though grab her and flip her onto her back!::
<O_Rex> Why do you wish to speak with a lowly deputy mayor?
<Dark_Kat> ((<Joe> Everytime I challenge you at home, you beat me. ;_; <Trina> Can’t help it if I’m better at Chinese checkers.))
<O_Rex> ((::dies::((
<Joseph_Forge> ::oh! and when he feels her going down at any time during this, will sorta catch her to ease her down more so she’s not hurt. lol! no wanna lose his shot at them kittens one day! lol!::
<Joseph_Forge> ((:DIIIES!::))
<O_Rex> OOF!
<O_Rex> ((Trina))
<Dark_Kat> Because you can give me something that I cannot gain for myself. Please. :;snaps fingers:: <creepling>::pushes an office chair up behind Rex for him to sit at, two more do the same with a much larger chair for Dark Kat himself:: <Dark Kat> Have a seat. ::takes a seat::
<Joseph_Forge> ::smirks. will try and pin her!::
<O_Rex> <Trina> ::is pinned, gives him a sour look::
<Joseph_Forge> What? Whats the matter?
<O_Rex> <Trina> You don’t fight fair.
<Joseph_Forge> whats not fair?
<O_Rex> ::wary look, sits, too::
<Dark_Kat> You and I want the same thing, Rex, and that’s power. You can’t get that power by playing fair. You have to work the system to your advantage or hope you get lucky.
<O_Rex> <Trina> Meh… ::tickles him!::
<Joseph_Forge> ack! thats not fair! ::laughing and gets away from her as quickly as possible!::
<Dark_Kat> ((Don’t make him pee, Trina! XDDD He’s been better at that. ;D))
<O_Rex> ((:DIES!!!!!::))
<O_Rex> ((So Trina better stop or Tasha will spit on her?))
<Dark_Kat> ((that’s right!))
<O_Rex> I’ve already tried that.
<Dark_Kat> ((with her loogies of doom!))
<Joseph_Forge> ((::DIIIIES!::))
<O_Rex> ((DYING))
<Dark_Kat> Have you? ::smirks:: Is that what has gotten you at odds with a mafia group?
<O_Rex> Yes, it has. And having the NSA involved ruined my plans at taking out the Enforcer Commander and MBI director.
<O_Rex> <Trina> Ha! ::pins him back!::
<Joseph_Forge> ack! ::is pinned! grins up at her:: cheater
<Dark_Kat> ::chuckles:: That is why two individuals working together is better than involving an organization.
<O_Rex> <Trina> THank you. ::smirking::
<O_Rex> Then what do you suggest?
<Joseph_Forge> Evil thing. too bad though…you’re still gonna lose.
<Dark_Kat> I suggest an alliance. I will aid you by getting you in the right placement for mayoralship. When you become the Mayor, you will do me some favors without question.
<O_Rex> <Trina> Oh, really.
<O_Rex> How will you do that?
<O_Rex> (::rolls her eyes at Burger King commercial:: I’d like to know why anything vegetarian is considered “chick food”:: I’m a chick, and I eat meat like any other regular human being, thank you. I just don’t eat heart attacks onna bun, that’s all))
<Joseph_Forge> Yep…::grins. if he may, has reached under a second towel there by the mat and grabs….a can of silly string! will hose her down!::
<Joseph_Forge> ((::diies!:: i’ve seen those commercials. So stupid))
<O_Rex> ((Amen. ))
<Dark_Kat> ((::DIES!:: Because more girls are on diets and watch their weight I guess. ::thinks that burgerking King guy with the big head is skerry::))
<O_Rex> <Trina> WAAAAGH!!!
<Joseph_Forge> ((oh I hate that guy..he creeps me out0)
<O_Rex> ((Oh, excuse us for trying to eat healthy, BK. I’ll go out and stuff myself with bacon and bread until my heart explodes. ><))
<Joseph_Forge> ::grinning evilly! wil grab another can and spray!:: Ahahahahahaha! Payback!
<O_Rex> <Trina> JOE!
<Joseph_Forge> ((::DEADSAGEY!::))
<Dark_Kat> ((I think he’s the father of the PS3 baby XD))
<O_Rex> ((::DIES, FEL! XD))
<Joseph_Forge> ::snorking. will get up and flee if he can!::
<Joseph_Forge> ((::DEAD!:))
<Dark_Kat> While past attempts on Manx’s life were… somewhat good, they failed. Do you know why they failed, Rex?
<O_Rex> ::arches a brow::
<O_Rex> <Trina> ARGH! ::chases!::
<Joseph_Forge> Oh crud. ::will run out the door of the gym to get to the tom’s locker!::
<O_Rex> <Trina> JOSEPH DANIEL FORGE!
<Dark_Kat> Because the individuals behind them weren’t out for your best intrests, and they involved too many kats. Besides, there’s still the Deputy Mayor to think about. With Manx gone, she’d take his place. The NSA and the City Council granted you temporary status as Mayor but it wasn’t a position with solid footing. Briggs ran last time but what’s to say she will again? No, both of them need to be dealt with in more… subtle ways.
<Joseph_Forge> Oh no….i’m in trouble! ::flees into the tom’s locker room to hide!::
<O_Rex> <Trina> ::bursts in there!::
<Joseph_Forge> trina! you’re not supposed to be in here. Someone help! ::calls out, backing away:: Hon…eh heh..it was just a joke…::grins:: Please? Forgive me?
<O_Rex> <Trina> ::is shaking a can of shaving cream she got from a nearby locker::
<Dark_Kat> ((<Hans> AUGH!! ::seen in the nudey!:: <Hertz> g-g-g-girl in… ::faints:: <Mark>::folds arms, tapping foot. has towel ’round waist, showerbrush and rubber ducky printed shower hat on:: Triiiinaaaa.))
<O_Rex> ((DEAD!!!!))
<Joseph_Forge> ((::DIIIIIES!::))
<O_Rex> Like what?
<Joseph_Forge> Trina..now now..hon….I love you…::will reach in his locker and bring out some white roses real fastlike! handing them out:: Peace? Eh heh?
<O_Rex> <Trina> ::stops::
<Joseph_Forge> ::smiles:: See? I did good to make up for my bad. Right?
<Dark_Kat> Blackmail is always nice. If you can’t find any dirt, you make some yourself. Tell me, do you have any allies on the City Council or the NSA still?
<O_Rex> <Trina> Mmmm… ::takes the roses::
<O_Rex> None in the City Counsil, and my only other ally in the NSA is dead.
<Joseph_Forge> I’m sorry. I love you. I’ll buy you jewelery? ::grins::
<O_Rex> <Trina> Diamonds? ::sniffing the roses::
<Joseph_Forge> Whatever you want…so long as you don’t hurt me…
<O_Rex> <Trina> Well… ::setting the roses down::
<Joseph_Forge> well? ::hopefull look::
<O_Rex> <Trina> Meh. ::SPRAY!::
<Dark_Kat> Hmm… ::rubs chin in thought:: I will work something out for you then. In the meantime, I suggest you make friends with those you haven’t already offended, such as some City Council members who have things they wish to do which Manx won’t, or who need a large bribe or two, as well as the current NSA Director or former staff under Spinner.
<Joseph_Forge> augh! ::is sprayed! holding hands up defensively:: Trina!
<O_Rex> You think it will work?
<O_Rex> <Trina> HA!
<Joseph_Forge> Evil!
<Dark_Kat> If you have the right kats in your pocket, then if getting rid of Manx and Briggs doesn’t work, then elections come November will go in your favor at least. Are you a patient tom, Rex?
<Dark_Kat> ((November or whenever they run XD (ie. convienent for RPG purposes XD) ))
<O_Rex> <Trina> THank you!
<Joseph_Forge> oh thats it! ::will try and grab her to rub some of the shaving cream on her as well!::
<O_Rex> <Trina> Nooooooo! ::runs out of the locker room::
<O_Rex> ((LOL XD))
<O_Rex> Of course I am.
<Joseph_Forge> ::busts up laughing, watching her out the door and grins:: be that way! I’ll just go shower then! ::Razzes!::
<Dark_Kat> Good. Sometimes getting what you want takes time. ::stands:: So, do we have a deal then?
<O_Rex> <Trina> You’re just too chicken to come after me! Buckbucknbuck!
<O_Rex> ::smirks:: Yes.
<Joseph_Forge> Oh I am huh? ::comes out and takes after her!::
<O_Rex> <Trina> Yes, you are! :
:
<Joseph_Forge> ::will try and catch her to hug her!::
<Dark_Kat> ::holds out onna his big ol’ hands out to shake.::
<O_Rex> <Trina> Gah! :
:
<O_Rex> ::shakes it!::
<Joseph_Forge> ::hugs her! grinning:: I love you so much!
<Dark_Kat> ::grins now, eyes light up a moment more than usual:: Here is where you can contact me. ::hands him a card with a simple phone number on it:: Do not do so unless it is dire. I will send someone with word of my progress to you from time to time should it deem necessary.
<O_Rex> <Trina> ::hugs him back, grinning back::
<O_Rex> I will. Believe me, I will. ::evil smirk::
<Joseph_Forge> :
: we should go clean up before someone comes along and wonders what the heck happened.
<Dark_Kat> ::devilish grin for your evil smirk. XD:: Then our buisness here is concluded. You will hear from me within a few days. ::backs up into the shadows now, past his chair, as do his creeplings. oooooh::
<O_Rex> You started it. ::pokes his nose::
<O_Rex> ((TRINA!!!))
<O_Rex> ((Shuttupshuttupshuttup. ::crawls under her desk::))
<Dark_Kat> ((::DIES:: <Dark Kat> … I’m sorry, but this RPG does not swing that way, nor do I, Rex. Poke my nose again and you’ll be pulling back a stub.))
<Joseph_Forge> ((::Diiiies!:: <DK> >.< ::pokes Rex’s nose back!:: <Rex>::pokes him back!:: <DK and Rex> ::keep poking at one another’s noses:: <Creeplings> This ain’t very evil. I’m going for a root beer…::toddle off to leave the two::))
<O_Rex> ((:DEAD!!!::))
<Dark_Kat> ((::diiies!::))

<Lina_Fontaine> ::you bum! XD::
<Lina_Fontaine> Where is the director located at this time?

<Joseph_Forge> Um..he’s in his office….
<Joseph_Forge> I can get you started on the application though.
<Lina_Fontaine> ::nods:: Then I request you do so.
