(Opens door slowly)
Looking inside the Prison Armory, Deathwatch finds the place already ransacked as every weapon rack don't contain anymore firearms. Thanks to his shifted focus on eliminating Salvo's team in the Cafeteria before resuming, he shed out a lot of time that would've been better use in catching up to his target. Nevertheless, he still goes in and aims his EBR, having some hope that she may still be in hiding.
"Kasey... you here?" he calls for her as he goes around the room, searching for her.
As time passes in seconds and every part of the area is searched, he sighs in frustration and connects his contact in the comms, hoping for either Kingslayer or his client to pick up.
"We have a problem." Deathwatch tell him, calmly, as he holster his rifle and look around a bit more.
"(sigh)... She's already on the move, isn't she?" the client ask in question.
He answered, "Affirmative. Lack of tools or some sort. Must've gotten out of dodge when she learns about this."
Just when he said that, a sense in his brain turns his attention to the two lockers that look to be unlocked normally, unlike the rest that had clear use of force by the signs of dents on the lockers and broken glass from the weapon racks. Immediately, he went closer to look at them, finding its automatic locks (which Deathwatch later saw) to have its screens glitched, indicating that she hacked into them.
"However, she did hack the automatic lockers to see its contents. The screen's glitched." he informs him as the client grunt in curiosity.
"Strange. Earlier, you sound like you don't know about her." he says, which made Deathwatch clarify a bit more.
"She's infamous for her actions against the Accord and Loyalists. Many tried to hire me in killing her... leaving me to decline them." he informs his client.
"Blood... how much were they offering?" he ask, getting the hitman curious, too.
Not wanting to think about it, he simply answers, "Doesn't matter. What does now is that we need to find her."
As he says that, he had a bit of realization that is on his head and ask, "Since your guys have already scoped out the prison, did any of them see where her stuff went?"
The client responds in realization, "Now that you've mentioned it, there was some development in the Evidence Room when Kasey arrived to this prison. At the same time, your other target, Linrov, just got something before he left."
Hearing about him, Deathwatch ask, "Did it contain anything of importance?"
"When she got arrested, chats about 'stolen Jammer schematics' came up to most of the guards. They never find it on her place, fortunately or unfortunately." the client answers.
"So that explains the Accord agent's visit. He's trying to get answers." the hitman tells him as he exits the Armory.
"You could say that.... Now then, I think you know where to go." he tells him.
"There's no reason to think when you've got a clear answer." Deathwatch says as he went past the dead prisoners and guards, to which his senses notice and ignore.
The client then hastily says, "Just remember your mission and stay focused. They're no good to us dead."
Hearing that, Deathwatch groans and calmly says, "I will. Just hold your end of the bargain once I'm done."
After that... he disconnects his comms.
