It had been a long day for Michael. He had just finished cleaning out a Clan facility of a mutant infestation. The leadership was quite impressed with his thoroughness, and had rewarded him with new armor and credits. After dropping his stuff off at the bank terminal outside his apartment in Borealis, he looked forward to a peaceful night of rest. Missions always took a lot out of him.
It came as quite the shock to find that he had an uninvited guest. The man had made himself quite comfortable in Michael's kitchen. Looking down, Michael realized the weapon sitting on his table meant this probably was a business call.
“Welcome Home Mr. Hawke. We need to talk.” John gestures to the empty chair across from him. “I am needing to know what happened the night Jenn Davies died. And I want the story from beginning to end if you please. And No is not an acceptable answer over this interview.”
At the sound of the name, Michael flinched slightly. He sat down on the other side of the table. "Ok, you've got my attention now. Let's get the formalities out of the way. You obviously know my name and where I live, but I know leet squat about you. Being as we're still under 100% suppression, I'd say conversation is the preferable means of dealing with this. You tell me who you are and why you're so interested in Jenn Davies, and I'll tell you what I know about her."
Michael sat back in his chair, eager to hear the stranger's response.
