"Tha't funny," Rapp said.

"Oh hey Rappa," MIrko waved. "How they treating you over there?"

"No complains, the MEtas are mstlo nice but to be hoesnt, they're kind of wimps," Rapp confided. "None of them ever want ot fight."

"Why'd you bring Dried out Corps man wit you?" MIrko asked them.

"Tha't not very nice," Wally reproached her.

"I mean we are looking for a connection being aFO's hideouts, and the rings, and then hopefully, the Orignals," Shien pionteda out. "Unless someone has that doctor int hier back pocket, who else knows aFO's history the best?"

"SInt he pretty reoinc thohg for aFO?" MIrko had a decent point.

"Okay w'ere all a bit at risk here," Wally hledpup his hands. "Can we just try to get along? Shgiarkai you got a list of places?"

"I don't have very speic ones," Shgiakrna held up a piece of paper. "I used to wander around a lot in those days, I Shodul reccoing the street once we'r ieth genlr neighborhood.
