Neovgre sighed, as best as one could when you breathed through gill-like structures behind your cheekbones. She was waiting for two of her fellow Espada operatives, and she was getting bored. A side effect of her intelligence is that she got bored easily, and when she got bored, she thought about the various questions of the universe, which were quite compelling but with no clear end to them. She sighed again, wishing she could pull out her energy blade and practice, but she was in public and C-Sec would most certainly frown on that.

She was clad in top of the line Colossus X Light Armor, which was mostly hidden by a, rather conforming, black cloak that covered up most of her armor above her waist when she moved. Her HMWP's were on each hip, the silencer's showing when she walked on occasion, but it would take a sharp eye to notice them, and her energy sword was hidden up her left sleeve. Her eyes glowed as brightly as ever, and her 'hair'/'tendrils' hung down to her waist, giving her a rather unique appearance. She had considered cutting them, but she was still debating that particular subject.

She sighed again, leaning up against a pillar with her arms crossed, tapping a Quarian-esque foot to a beat that only she could hear.

'Where are those guys?' She thought to herself before she went back to contemplating the complexities of the universe.

Ethan and Tyrus walked up the street. Ethan felt that taking the elevators would keep them out of shape so they took the stairs to the Presidium. They walked the whole way and finally made it to the meeting spot. Ethan spotted a person standing where they were supposed to meet up with agent 10.

Ethan never met agent 10 because she only recently joined. He wasn't sure it was her. Ethan and Tyrus walked up to her. Ethan pulled out his sword as a sign that he was part of the Espada. Ethan nudged Tyrus to do the same.

Tyrus recalled the memo Espada 1 sent him so he recognised the tenth Espada straight away. Not that it was difficult to spot her anyway.

"Easy Ethan, that's our girl." He looked at Ethan who was still wary. "Oh for crying out loud man, she's more than capable of ripping you apart from here without moving and I can't take her on in this state!"

Tyrus stumbled a bit from fatigue. Shaking it off, he sent a handshake signal on Espada channels to signal to Neovgre who they were.

Neovgre caught sight of a blade she recognized, for she carried a similar one. She noticed Ethan, who was renowned for acting more like a Spectre than an Espada, and then there was Tyrus, who looked to be a bit more drained than usual. The handshake signal over her comm further emphasized these points, so she got up from her position against the pillar and approached the two men, arms crossed.

"You finally arrive." she said, her eyes flashing as her voice, which sounded like a much more feminine version of the Hanar speech methods "I was beginning to wonder if maybe there was an issue... and by the look of things, there was."

She noticed that Tyrus was rather drained, and Ethan... well, his reputation preceded him, and he looked a bit beat up himself.

Tyrus shot Ethan a glare that would have stopped a krogan cold in his tracks. Then he stopped and sighed.

"Ethan here was being Ethan. That's all I'm going to say."

"Ethan here was being Ethan. That's all I'm going to say."

"Yep I was busy being me. Wait a minute what is that supposed to mean?" Ethan replied. Ethan walked up to Neovgre and shook hands with her.

"Okay it is time to get to business. This was originally my case, but since things have gotten more difficult recently the three of us have to work together. I will take the lead here. Okay let me explain what happened so far. I was assigned to follow a krogan. He went to Chora's Den and waited there for a little time until a turian walked in. He handed the turian the disc and left. I knocked out the turian and took the disc. Due to unforeseen circumstances I lost the krogan's trail. I eventually picked up on it again and captured the krogan. I interrogated him, but didn't get anything to valuable." Ethan paused for a moment then continued again.

"Someone tried to blow up the krogan, but because I captured him the explosion didn't get him. I got a piece of the bomb and had Tyrus here analyze it. The two of us found out that a volus created the bomb. We interrogated the volus and got nothing again. Someone planted a bomb for the volus and we got caught up in the explosion. Now we are all here. Any questions?" Ethan explained to Tyrus and Neovgre.

"I have a question: do you know the meaning of 'subtlety'?" Neovgre asked, her 'voice' a somewhat chiding fashion "Gunshots were reported before the explosion at the Volus' location, two to be exact. Earlier today, about the time you would have been at Chora's Den, and based on eyewitness reports from the C-Sec cells, you, Ethan, started a brawl and attempted to harm several of the bouncers after giving your name to the owner of the establishment. So I ask you: why not try silencers and trailing your target next time? You know, something a little more inconspicuous?"

She sighed afterwards, but went back to speaking not too long after that.

"Still, I digress... do we have a lead of any kind?" Neovgre asked calmly, as if she had not just tried to tear Ethan a new one.

One look at Ethan's face told Tyrus that Neovgre's words didn't go down too well. Tyrus didn't need this, the rookie agent in charge, the new agent reprimanding them and the massive headache he developed from draining his eezo reserves.

"Any leads we can discuss in the privacy of my office. As you are so quick to point out, it would be less conspicuous than standing out here in the middle of the financial district where information, as much as money, is acquired." he said pointedly to Neovgre.

"Follow me. And we're taking the lifts this time."
