"I don't think so," Gambit said standing up. "I'm leaving." He tried to find a door.
Cat Woman slid forward in her seat and stretched her hands over the table in a stretch. Then, just as coyly, she leapt from her seat and grabbed Agent Joan by the neck and shifted the smaller woman into a head lock.
Samus jumped out of her seat and raised her disarmed weaponed arm levelly with her waist out of habbit, pointing in the general direction of the cat and mouse.
"I don't play so nice," hissed Cat Woman, tightening her grip on the fidgeting CIA. "No one backs me into a corner and gets away un scratched-"
Cat Woman was twisted away by a firm grip and thrown across the room. She landed on all fours with a growl and Agent Joan rolled her head around, making sure her neck was still connected to the rest of her body. "Thank you Mr. Fett," she said politely, but his immediate answer was a gun in her face. She frowned. "They were supposed to confiscate that."
"Don't try to use elevated bureaucratical language to con me into some little game," he said, his voice scratchy and dry. "Start talking or I'm going to blast through your skull, walk out there and fry whatever worthless security you may have here."
Joan stared at the weapon for only a few seconds before she bitterly complied.
"We brought you here...all of you...to find the infinity. The infinity is an essence that has the power to control all time and space. It can be used to travel through time, different dimensions and different universes. We have been able to mimic these powers. That is how we got hold of each of you. Every fictional world in one universe is complete truth in another. Each of you exist in your own universe and time, even though you are only imaginary somewhere else. But the infinity has other powers. It can combine universes...cross time frames stretching the very limits of our universes. Combining even one universe and another could break the limit of infinity and destroy everything in a micro-second. If you had given me the time to speak I would have told you all thi-"
"And let me guess," Indianna said, "You lost it."
"It was never ours to begin with."
"Then what?" Fett asked unamused. He shifted his weapon slightly to keep it upmost in Agent Joan's mind.
"We have reason to believe a terrorist knows where it is and will find it first."
Fett set his jaw behind his visor and flipped his weapon back into it's holster. He slowly backed into his corner again.
"I find this all intriguing, really," Laura told the agent. "But if you want us to have any sort of idea of how to help you find this infinity...your going to have to give us more than just that."
"We have documentation of the general area the infinity is supposed to be...weapons, vehicles anything you can think of by way of aid we will supply you."
There was a general silence, broken only by the gruff, cold and scratchy voice of the bounty hunter in the corner. "What's the reward?"
"Anything we can give."
"Numbers."
"For each of you we could spare about a half million dollars. In your currency, it would come out to about a quarter of a million credits for you, Mr. Fett and..." agent Joan motioned to Samus, "about thirty five thousand for you."
Samus nodded acknowledgment with an odd mechanical twink as her armor shifted. Fett did not reply at all.
"Are we all in agreement, then?"
Her answer was blank stares.
Agent Joan sighed. "I can tell I'm going to love this mission," she said sarcastically. "Follow me." No one moved. "Well, don't all of you get up all at once."
Slowly, Indiana rose and stared challengingly at Laura. Indiana followed Agent Joan back into the hall, and slowly the others began to follow. Laura was the last to leave.
"I hate cheap employers," she said to herself as she rose and followed the congregation.
