They step into the bustling lobby.
Ariyae: "Whoa!"
An image of a male with black hair, dark grey, shark like features, dark blue swim trunks, black, short sleeved over shirt, white, buttoned shirt, and a black necktie flashes on a nearby screen for a moment.
Rox: "That's Makoh alright."
???: "Excuse me, who are you people?"
The receptionist, an elf, looks at the heroines as they walk over.
Ariyae: "Is your CEO open?"
Receptionist: "No. You need an appointment to even catch a glimpse of him."
Cale: "Wh-When's your earliest slot? We need to tell him something important."
Receptionist: "One moment..."
She scrolls through her computer.
Receptionist: "You've lucked out. Tomorrow at 3:30 sharp."
Ariyae: "Set us up."
She clicks her mouse.
Receptionist: "Don't be late. He's got enough on his hands as is."
Rox: "We won't."
The three exit the building.
However...
A shark like female th silver hair and white skin and a red robe looks at the heroines as they leave from binoculars atop of a parking building.
Shark: "So their next target is Trust..."
She looks at the top of Sky Industries.
Shark: "No matter. My men will take care of them while I take Trust for Lord Lazarus."
She pockets the binoculars.
Shark: "Then I'll make Leyious look like the scum he was."
She walk away...
Meanwhile...
Rox: "You're lucky I had enough money for a night."
The heroines are heading into a hotel to stay for a night.
Ariyae: "(awkwardly I didn't get my allowance before I left."
Cale: "It'll only be for a night and then we'll give Makoh the message, then we're going back out."
Rox pockets their room key.
Rox: "Maybe Makoh could hit us with some of that fortune he seems to have under his belt."
They start heading for their room.
Cale: "He has never worn a belt..."
Ariyae: "Nice one."
Meanwhile...
Makoh sits in a black office chair while looking outside through large, glass windows.
Makoh: "(sighing) These days just get more and more boring every second."
It's currently 2:19 p.m.
Makoh: "I need to retire."
Makoh walks up to the window.
Makoh: "I haven't talked to anyone for ages..."
