As his eyes made contact, Danny finally recognized the man in Alexei's booth. He mumbled something Kiley's way and then hurried through the crowd once Kaschei beckoned. Danny had to show some poise though, so he hurried through the crowd as non-chalantly as possible.
"How can I help you?" He said politely once arriving back at the booth.

"Just intimidation. I am tired of wasting my money on people who can't be trusted any way. I don't think it will be hard. All she knows is paperwork and numbers, it won't be hard." Kaschei states.
He tries to remember the name he was told earlier that day. "I think it is..Barbie. Some bimbo name like that. She should arrive at the bank soon. A lender there named Archie can tell you the hotel she'll be at." Kaschei states.
Kaschei turns sharply to Danny.
"I was going to ask you if you had seen Alexei, but here he is. You are not needed. However, I think I've seen you around. Where does Leilah keep her money?" He asks. He assumes that Leilah must bank somewhere...and since all Banks are branches of Global Bank, there is a good chance that she too found the corrupt branch.

Malak also watches the broadcast. He shakes his head. "Well, I don't know. I don't even know what to think of this situation."
Tuesday's story about Lena seems just a little imcomplete, but he isn't sure what would be missing from the story.
"And you are sure she can be trusted?" Malak asks. He is usually a little paranoid, so the question makes sense to him.

"Uhh, well..."
Lena tries to think on how to explain it. She could just write it off, but she saw nothing wrong with telling the truth. Besides, Sidapa was a hand member.
"It's basically a system where the 'common people' rule instead of some type of figure, like Father Manala and The Moderator." It wasn't a great description, but it wasn't like it mattered.

Sidapa is a little surprised that people think like that in the world today. "But common people can get ahead if we just work hard and are good at what we do." He states confidently. His confidence is a little shaken by past failures for the Hand though.
"The Moderator says there are many rebels in Helsinki. The one who did it must be from here..he said. He said we should try to find and kill as many of the Helsinki rebels as we can."

Alexei nodded.
"The bank is in London, yeah? I'll start there immediately."
He tosses his cigarette onto the floor and stomps it out as he rises and straightens his blazer.
"I don't imagine it'll be hard either. These bureacrats scare pretty easy, no?"
He walks over to Danny and pats him on the shoulder.
"We'll have to do this again sometime."

Tuesday shrugs, and shakes her head at the television.
"Of course we can." She says firmly. "She saved you, didn't she?" There wasn't a doubt in her mind that Lena could be trusted, though she could see why Malak would be cautious.

Bambi enters the Global Bank in London and is approached by one of the desk workers. He explains to her about the issue, afterwards suggesting a hotel to stay at. She hadn't realized this was probably going to take days!
"All right, thank you very much. I'm going to go rent my hotel room first." She decides, using the teleportation booth in the bank. She packs a small bag with only the things she'd surely need before heading back to London. Once there, she rents a room at the hotel she had been suggested.
She places her bag at the couch and decides to head back to the bank to work a few hours, get the accounting started.

"Nope, completely oblivious lackey." He said, smiling politely and bowing himself out and back on to the dance floor. "So sorry - couldn't be of service."
Oof. Forceful personality on that man; Danny was glad he dealt with Alexei.
He looked around quickly for Kiley and saw Sharon on an intercept course for her good friend. Things went sour real quick, didn't they?
"Yeah . . ." He says absently to Alexei, not turning to look at him. "See ya then."

Markus nods in order to communicate agreement towards Sidapa, even though he vaguely wonders how it is they plan to root out these rebels.

"Sorry, you know me. I'm paranoid." He admits. He crosses his arms and paces back and forth through the living room. "Well, I think...it might be a good idea to try to contact others in our group. Maybe if we can meet with the others, we can discuss this and decide what the best thing to do is." Malak suggests.

Kiley watches Danny go, then grins as she sees Sharon making her way toward her, holding both their jackets and a half of vodka, her grin widens.
"Whats this, Sharon? Deciding to loosen up a little, are we? Can you pause long enough from work to have a few more drinks, and maybe even a dance?" She teases.

Lena shrugs at Sidapa's root for Manalism. It was kind of true. "That's a rather stupid way of doing it. We'd get rebels killed, but we'd still have no idea who did it." She states, realizing after she just called orders stupid.
Deciding to flow with it, she continues, "It'd work, but I think it'd be better if we find out who exactly did it. Most rebels do nothing even though they claim to be rebels. If we show them that the ones who dare quickly get put down, less will be willing to.
Obviously, whoever did this did it via some type of plane. We should check out all the hangers in or near Helsinki, there can't be that many. Ask questions, the works."

Alexei chuckled at Danny's expression.
"All good things must come to an end, yeah?"
With that he made his way out of the club, and to his dismay...a teleportation booth. He brought himself to London and soon enough to the banker that had tipped them off, Archie.
After a brief conversation Archie informed Alexei where to find their investigative accountant. He took a cab to the hotel and walked in, then bribed the gentlemen at the front desk to direct him to the room of this acountant.
He decided not to move to quickly, lighting a cigarette in the lobby and waiting for a moment. Archie had also given him a picture and her actual name. Bambi. She was kind of cute, Alexei thought to himself as he looked over the picture once more. Certainly cuter then your average acountant.

Tuesday smiles at him. "Yeah, I know." She says, sitting down on the couch, and watching him pace.
"Thats a good idea." She agrees. "Right now, its probably best to lay low...some more." She sighs. "Especially you, you're still supposed to be captured. If you're found there'll be even more trouble." He probably doesn't need to be reminded of that, but Tuesday says it anyway.
