"Hawaii huh? I'll ship you out there eventually. Could probably find some excuse to work there. I think the company has a line of sub aquatic gyrojet guns upcoming."
"For now though you got to finish that torch rifle commercial." A voice spoke from the laptop. A few seconds later Franks face turned up on a video call window in the sidebar. "Hey kid, see you opened your present. Welcome to the wonderful world of weapon sales."
"Hey Frank." Gabe replied. "Any news from up top?"
"They're sending some people to work with law enforcement. Griffon was spotted at the Tokyo airport last night and might have skipped the country. Main point is they don't want you going after them so we're back to the usual business."
A display came up on screen showing a new rifle weapon the company was putting out. Lots of electronics making it look like something out of a science fiction movie.
"The instruction manual just got left at the front desk. They call this thing a 'Viral Disruptor'. Apparently it only affects mutated cells. We're going to go a short way into the quarantine area and show it off on camera. Bus picks you up in an hour." Frank signed off without waiting for a reply.
"Well, guess that's what I'm doing today." Gabe laughed "How'd you like to come for the filming? These new gadgets get pretty cool." He offered Eva.

Eva closed up the laptop when Frank had logged off. She gathered up the bag that Gabriel had bought for her to store her equipment in. "I think it would be interesting to go and watch," she said as she looked over at Shadow. He laid sprawled along the floor on his back sleeping soundly. She laughed a bit before looking at Gabriel. "Besides I may not like to carry a gun, but they sort of fascinate me." She grinned a bit before pulling a book out of the back. "Also Frank had left me a few reading materials about the electronics and computer systems of most of your weapons," she said. She looked down at Shadow as he shifted of the floor and continued to sleep. "When do you planning on leaving?"

"We have enough time for breakfast if you're hungry. I have to take my meds first though. When you get time fill out your login. You won't need to lug that terminal around the whole time if you can just use the same profile on other company machine."
Gabe left for his own room afterwards, stepping over the sleeping Shadow. Maybe the dog would enjoy staying behind this time, or he'd get enough of a quick nap and sleep on the bus the rest of the day. Once in his own room Gabe found his medical case, setting up a few syringes of the nutrient compound and chemical supply that fueled his heart unit. Inserting four needles in he turned the chest dial and laid back on the bed as the contents drained into him. For the next few days the unit would heal his wounds, build up antibodies in his blood and enhance his phyiscal attributes. Less so if he used the overcharge.
"Good God." He gasped as the procedure finished. "Wonder if the six million dollar man had to do this."

Eva watched as Gabriel left the room for his own. She looked down at Shadow as he rolled over as the door shut. "Good morning." She smiled as she picked up her bag. Shadow barked causing Eva to laugh. "Yeah yeah. Were going downstairs to eat. Gabriel will meet us down there." She walked over and scratched his head as she headed for the door. Shadow followed faithfully behind her as she left the room for the elevator. Down stairs she moved over to the small restaurant area. She sat her bag down at a table and walked over to the bar picking up two plates. She filled them up as she went through the line putting more meat on Shadow's plate. She sat Shadow's plate down on the ground and sat at the table waiting on Gabriel.

Gabriel found his way down to the restaurant a few minutes later, taking a few pieces of fruit for his own breakfast and sitting opposite Eva.
"Well I guess I'd better explain about how we work. Buyers don't like paper targets and dummy buildings these days. The mutants and zombies make for excellent live tests, so to speak. Not strictly one hundred percent legal but....at the same time there is no proper law against it unless you talk to groups like C.U.R.E."
He took a bite out of a pear to let her process the first part.
"We're going into the quarantine area. Whole thing is walled off and marksmen shoot everything approaching. Obviously we're going to need an area to work without sniper fire whizzing past our ears so we'll be setting up a little deeper. Plenty of guards, medics, armoured vehicles and conventional firearms of all types. We'll set up, test the new weapons on camera then bounce back for decontamination. So any questions?"

Eva did some thinking as Gabriel explained everything to her. After a moment she looked down at Shadow as he finished his plate. "Yeah," she pointed down at Shadow. "He'll need a good leash. He likes to chase anything with bones showing." She laughed a bit as shadow tilted his head and growled a bit. "I'm joking boy." She looked at Gabriel a bit more seriously. "An average sniper can shoot over 500 feet. Your talking about going into the heart of the city where from my understand was ground zero for Japan. I don't doubt your abilities, but aren't most of the Bio weapons known to roam that area as well?" She shrugged her shoulders as she finished eating. "But then again from what I've read so far about your business weapons there quite a bit more advanced than the average military weapon. So then you might not have to work as hard."

"Don't worry about that, we won't see anything worse than a few zombies out there."
Gabriel pulled a notebook out and laid it on the table, opening the pages revealing various files on common BOWs. Lickers, Hunters, enlarged vermin among others.
"Standard operating manual for the Japanese containment forces, they hand these out to any group cleared to go behind the wall for safety. Tells you every known behaviour. Like Lickers here, love the dark and the damp, since this is a daylight mission they'll still be indoors at the lowest floor they can find. You know how bad sunburn is right? Imagine how bad it is when you have no skin."
"Snakes, spiders, they're trappers, not predators. They won't come near our setup with all the guards we'll be bringing along and we won't be going into the sewers where they hide. and the dogs, they're lured into killzones with drops of spoiled meat and taken out by snipers. A living thing would work that out eventually but zombie dogs? Stomach overrides the brain."
Gabe tucked into the rest of his fruit.
"Bus will be here soon, make sure you get a good meal before we go."

Eva nodded as she finished off her second plate. "I think I'm full." She stood up and took her plate putting it in the trash. Returning she seen the guy who Gabriel called 'Frank' waving at them. "I think our ride is here," she said motioning over to him. She grabbed her bag and followed Gabriel out to the bus that was waiting for them. Shadow climbed in first finding a comfortable spot in the back. Eva sat down in the back. It didn't take long before they were moving out to the restricted distract. It was about a thirty minute drive before they were stopped at a checkpoint. After clearance the gates opened and the bus moved into the infested city.
(( Gabriel and Eva moved to Tokyo Tower))
