Watch Thuggy and wait until Slippy(The Courier) comes back.

...What kind of pizzeria regularly gets trans-dimensional customers? I must be in the wrong part of town.

Order a table close to the kitchen door, and try to see if I can hear any conversation there. Also order some food.

Holy crap.

Update 7

((Is this guy even bleeding?))

Spike him in guts, as many times as possible.

(It takes a long time for someone to bleed out from a hand wound.)

You spike four times! [6]/[6]/[14]/[1]-1 Now the pain is starting to show, and the bouncer is unable to bear his muscular frame on his own two feet. He collapses, clutching his gut. Surprisingly, he doesn't scream for help.

Leave Bracken to keep the thug occupied, and find an abandoned building of some sort.

You find a shop that was closed down. There's a note on the wall.
This property is no longer
under the protection of
The Meteor Muffins

There are wooden bars across its entrances and the interior is obscured by linen blankets hung against the windows.

Watch Thuggy and wait until Slippy(The Courier) comes back.

Thuggy tries to stand up, but it looks like he is about to topple over!

Nyar scans the nearby store fronts for anything particularly sketchy that reeks of bootlegging.

Been there, done that. You join Cop at the Pizzeria.

...What kind of pizzeria regularly gets trans-dimensional customers? I must be in the wrong part of town.

Order a table close to the kitchen door, and try to see if I can hear any conversation there. Also order some food.

You ask the waiter about moving tables. He smiles, and agrees. Also, one of your fellow partymates has entered. You may or may not want to signal for him to come over. It's your call.

You check the menu and order some... pizza donuts. Those sound good.

The kitchen looks on its face about normal as a pizza kitchen can be. A chef twirls a flat piece of douge in the hair, stretching it out into a torus (for the pizza donuts, of course). But something is sure, and that's that the waitress and customer are not in the kitchen as previously believed.

"I, Mephistopheles of Inferno, have never been more humiliated in my 6000 years of corrupting. I hate to mix business with pleasure, but having to run from children has wounded my pride and I'm really going to enjoy fucking this two-bit mafioso shithead up. I just need a servant or two and success will be guaranteed." Mephistopheles soliloquized bitterly and cackled as quietly as possible afterward.

Return to (impenetrable?) building from earlier that smelled of debauchery and corruption. Look for some way to enter aside from the locked cellar door.


It's not exactly obvious what buildings are connected to the cellar, but seeing as it's right behind the bakery, you take a peek through the windows, and find that it's mostly empty. A lone cashier sits at the desk, jotting something down on her notepad. On the other hand, there is smoke coming out of a vent on the side of the building. You partly cover the vent with your hand, and are somewhat able to project your senses through the combustion products. You hear a muffled conversation ocurring between an old man and a younger-sounding dude, but the crackling of the flames is too much for you to make out any particular words.

Enter through the vent if possible, I should be safe given that I can redirect any flames that may come my way. Otherwise, stick to the front entrance and apply my charms to the cashier as subtly as possible.

If I can enter through a window, do so with my pistol drawn.

Nyar enters and ambles carelessly up to the counter. "I'm a bit dry if you catch my drift. You wouldn't happen to have anything in the back, would you?"

Spike him through the carotid arteries. Then search him for any keys to the door.

Check the binds on Thuggy, then sit down on his head.

Interesting. They either didn't go in at all, or went further into the building.

Ask for a menu while keeping an eye out on the kitchen if there are any potential exits (or if people leave/enter.)

Sorry, I'm about to be rather busy this week. Happy Thanksgiving to fellow Americans.

Update 8

Enter through the vent if possible, I should be safe given that I can redirect any flames that may come my way. Otherwise, stick to the front entrance and apply my charms to the cashier as subtly as possible.


Argh, so tiny! You'd be lucky to fit your head in here, let alone your body. This seems to be a good time to practice "Soul Technique: One With Flame," which will drain a quarter of your soul meter. Using up your entire soul meter will rob you of your pyrokinetic powers until you can steal another soul's property rights. But this may get you through the vent undetected as you merge with the smoke particles and become a cloud for a few precious moments.

If I can enter through a window, do so with my pistol drawn.

Sure, you punch the side window open. [7/8] Everyone's too busy gawking at the tire shop fiasco to notice.
You do hear an odd police siren drive past. You didn't see the car itself, but it sounded more modern than the others.

Inside the store there are bloodstains on the wall behind the counter, and there's a corpse on the floor. The register is half open, and half the money is missing, but it seems that the corpse is half-covered in spondulicks, and his pockets are full of money.

The blood seems fresh, startlingly so. You wonder how quickly the Meteor Muffins could have barred those doors. This was a canned food store, and most of its stock remains on the aisles.

Spike him through the carotid arteries. Then search him for any keys to the door.

Well, you're not getting any information out of him now. The door is unlocked, but he does have keys. A full ring, in fact.

Inside, you hear jazz music and smell hard liquor. The stench is actually so great, however, that it overloads your senses! You'll have a hard time entering in this condition.

Check the binds on Thuggy, then sit down on his head.

I don't know what to say.

Interesting. They either didn't go in at all, or went further into the building.

Ask for a menu while keeping an eye out on the kitchen if there are any potential exits (or if people leave/enter.)

One of your compatriots calmly walks up to the counter and makes it into the kitchen with another waiter, apparently a whole lot more successful than you are being right now. But hey, those pizza donuts look good...

There's also pizza enchiladas, all kinds of pizza-based dishes. But all the pizza itself is the same. It's kind of bizzare, really.

Nyar enters and ambles carelessly up to the counter. "I'm a bit dry if you catch my drift. You wouldn't happen to have anything in the back, would you?"

"Come with me," says the cashier, pointing to the door to the kitchen.

The door is actually a secret passage, leading into the bowels of the Chicago Undercity. A rancid haze of booze odor greets you, as do garrulous toffs and tipsy madames two tip their hats, and sometimes their drinks, in your direction. The establishment maids quickly move to clean the myriad spills caused by excessive 24-7 partying.

There is a bar counter, and the bartender is cleaning glasses one by one. Half his hair covers one eye, while the other looks to be bright teal.

((Happy Thanksgiving!))

Make sure their isn't anyone else left in the building, then return to the alley and tell Bracken about the store.

Cut a piece of fabric off of Bouncer McBouncerson's suit, enough to tie around my nose and mouth like a kerchief mask. Enter downstairs, breathing through my mouth, a throwing knife ready in hand.

Nyar gives the ceaselessly partying flappers a jaunty salute.

Nyar approaches and in a flirty whisper asks, "Well, now. Tell me, do you get your drink from the source, the bootlegger himself?

Or are you just here on someone else's ticket?"
