They dashed along the back streets until they were around back of the Salon Markus was looking for. "Okay Shade would you mind coming in with me?" He said as he approached the door. He knocked someone opened it and looked surprised.
"Markus. I thought you were done."
"I was."
She eyed him. "So what are you dealing again. Sorry we're not interested."
"Let me speak to you're boss." She tried to close the door but he stopped her and then clubbed her across the face with the but of his pistol. "When I say I want to speak to your boss you better jump."
"Yes, of course, sorry." She actually seemed afraid of him, this wasn't a new fear either, but fear that you had made the same mistake twice. "Right this way." He stepped in. "The rest of you wait a minute, Shade you come with me and just follow my lead okay?" He followed the girl up the stares and into an office above the salon where an old Thai woman sat behind a desk and a fat little pug sat in the corner eating out of a large bowl. She looked a little surprised to see him.
"Markus you SOB." She said. "I thought you were out of the business."
"Well now I'm in again, I need a favor."
"Whats is it?" She looked at Shade. "That you're girlfriend or something?"
"Lets same I'm her new agent. I know you smuggle people. I need you to smuggle a few out of town. I don't care where you're taking you're shipment or what you're doing with them. No questions asked, no ratting out, just drop us off outside of the city and I'll owe you." She seemed to consider it. "Alright, let me set it up, but you will owe me big."
"I'm sure." They were then show back out. "I got us a ride, it won't be pretty but it's a way out and I know she'll hold up her end of the deal." He told the group.
