Edmund would find that the door clicked open the moment he said the words "What, 42", the shotgun does not comment on the door opening, although you can't help but feel like it would be smiling smugly right now. Edmund would find the following contacts: -
The shotgun sighs by pulling it's pump back slightly, before saying "It's not 54, it's 42! Just say 42 for now".
-
A loud racket in the form of he sound of chiming bells and trumpeting signals the crack of dawn, and the great sun is crawling it's way up the sky once more. Yesterday night's weirdness is recorded in the form of a note from command, reminding the group that the shift change signal must be shone whenever the shift changes. Perhaps it is time to eat breakfast?

The bartender wordlessly hands Halley a disposable phone as Theodore enters the club without any problems or interesting sights, other than the bouncer high fiving him and him passing two musclebound men fighting each other using their fists and a nearby derelict building while a woman runs away from an ancient jukebox playing the song "Why can't we be friends". Edmond would find the door to be quite locked, and there does not seem to be any obvious way to open it, but after a while the shotgun says "What do you get when you multiply six by nine?". Surprisingly enough, Lexiel's ill advised experiment does not lead to a catastrophic explosion, and instead successfully upgrades the weapon.
-
Solomon proceeds to tell Halley the number in a way that does not involve anything of interest other than the number, a wall of books prevents Halley from even seeing the door immediately afterwards. The shotgun made slight up and down movements, as if it was attempting to shrug, it then said "First things first, try to pretend that I don't exist, you are a stranger with a loaded weapon walking into their house, you will have body parts lopped off and suffer a fate worse than death if they see me, but anyway go to Apartment Three B, it is on the third floor, because duh; take the elevator".
-
A book falls on top of Halley, it is called 'The Idiot's guide for social situations', after a while a sound vaguely recognizable as vodka being drunk follows Solomon saying "You do realize that it is very rude to talk about someone right next to them while acting like they don't exist right? Also I don't fucking know where Izumi is, she went somewhere with one of my phones, I don't know where she is". Edmund would find himself staring at the faux marble facade of the not very large Huxtaby building, it had a rather small amount of windows, and it had several large lion statues decorating the place, and a rather large and well maintained garden, with several shrubbery sculpted into various shapes, mostly lion shapes. Yet despite the general "High end Hotel" Aesthetic present in the staff, most of the people living here are hanging out in their pajamas, trenchoats, leather jackets, and that one tusked man walking around wearing nothing but a pair of slacks; some of them are carrying rather if seemingly ornamental weaponry.. In general Edmond would feel that this building is meant for a better class of criminal, the kind that has grown rich enough to invest in marble walled apartment buildings and non obviously threatening weaponry. Visrii would find the door has rather stubbornly remained closed.

After a while Straight Dave says "Look, all of you know me, if this chick wasn't being such a massive dampener in the entire gang's efforts, I wouldn't even be asking you to do this, well actually that's a lie you should probably expect some more of this kind of drek, I mean I am the head of enforcement, and also your most immediate superior, but yeah for this one you can have 25% up front, just make sure that the woman is dead with a capital D get it?". After a while the man leans back on his seat and continues with "I meant that she dual wields" another bout of coughing mumbles the following word "Kaatars, it's a pretty fragging ridiculous weapon, but you know, she is a poser after all". He then brings the cup of coffee up and starts drinking from it. The diner itself is quite odd, it seems to be 70s themed, but not very well, the waitresses were all dressed as various people from around that period of time, except for one waitress who decided that she wanted to dress as Michael Jackson today, complete with the white glove and odd looking nose, the music was some bland pop piece that you vaguely remember hearing somewhere but don't particularly care enough to remember it's name.
-
After a while Solomon shouts out the barely audible words "The grenades are with Izumi, also what warehouse?". Edmund would find the shotgun's response to come with a rather excited tone, like one talking about his most prized possesion "YES! It won't take more than a hour, just take a taxi; the place is near the coast, it isn't a very valuable violin, just one of sentimental value".
-
Halley would be greeted by Solomon, with yet another bottle of vodka in his hands "Visrii isn't here, and it's 6 AM, go back to sleep or something, this isn't a school night", before getting the door closed and locked in her face again.
-
It was a bright new day for everyone involved, in the sense that a completely and utterly overcast day could be bright even when the first few drops of rain has already started falling. Halley would be surprised at how she was still alive and completely and utterly unharmed, the bartender from earlier wordlessly hands her a plate filled with a traditional breakfast of a sunny side up egg, along with a large sausage and several strips of crispy bacon, it looked both delicious and heart attack causing. Visrii would find himself inside of an apartment building, it had some rather tasteful decor in the form of an open violin case and a uniform white color to the walls, the place smelled vaguely earthy, as if plant life featured rather prominently inside of the place. He had been laid carefully on a bed in what appears to have once been an attempt at making a guest bedroom, he was in no way shape or form restrained, although his halberd was placed in what appears to be a round container filled with umbrellas, accompanying a ancient looking black umbrella. The most famous part of the song Ride of the Valkyries could be heard inside of the room. There was a sturdy wooden door leading out of the room, but it closes itself the moment Visrii looked at it. Izumi would wake up on a white bed in a mostly empty room, the only thing she could find would have been three duffel bags, one filled with her Equipment, the other filled with grenades, and the last one a black duffel bag that she had never seen before. Katsuo would perhaps be bored...very bored. Edmund and Theodore would wake up as mentioned before, Theodore with the odd dream and Edmund with the demonic laughter and organ music.

It was at that moment that a loud crashing sound could be heard loud and clear inside of the nightclub, as a large man in black carapace armor and a skull helmet performed several pelvic thrusts while shouting the words "WRRRRRYYYYY", a conical party hat was also quite noticeable on his head, the man then ran towards Theodore, before repeatedly stabbing the man and backflipping towards Edmund, who manages to fire some shots off at it before being kicked towards the entrance and shot repeatedly, he then throws a single grenade at Izumi, who successfully dodged the grenade in a way that only ever makes sense in a fever dream or a cheesy action movie, she then spars with the skeletal creature, her shots failing to significantly damage it, but she manages to hold on long enough until....Halley obtains a clear shot and opens fire on the man, causing him to explode into an unending wave of fire that consumes the entire club...... Theodore would be waken up by the dream later, the only sound he could hear being a raspy voice softly saying "Appprriilll Fooollllsss~". But back in real life, the bar was not a blazing inferno, and Izumi wasn't using a nearby table as the world's least likely bullet proof cover, but the bartender simply says "Lazy bastard? It's 2:00 AM in the morning, you should really go to sleep but yeah, have a glass of water, it's on the house" the man hands Halley a single glass filled with water, before wandering off to deal with another customer. The bouncer simply responds with "No, your Renaissance faire associate simply decided that throwing down a smoke bomb was a good idea".
-
The bartender turned slightly to face Halley, he was a different bartender than the one before, although the only noticeable difference would be him being slightly taller and serving better tasting drinks, no one really pays attention to this particular bartender, not even when they are asking him a question, but Halley does eventually notice the man reply with a tired "He's in the lounge, locked the door to catch 40 winks, and isn't this a school night? And also a nightclub? In fact....why the hell did the bouncer let you in here?".
-
Thankfully Harbin would be hard pressed to find anyone to puke on in the gloom of the night, and the rest of the evening seems like it would continue in a regular and non supernaturally affected manner.
-
The man stops to order himself a cup of coffee, after a while he finally says "There is a woman going around 51st street claiming to be some big shot Master of Murder and trying to kill off some of my guys, and the thing is she has actually suceeded in killing some of my men off, or maybe she just paid them to disappear, I'm not sure how she is doing it, but my men disappear permanently and without a Goddamn trace whenever she so much as enters a fragging bar, now what I need you to do is to find her, and kill her, that is all I need you to do, it shouldn't be hard or anything, she is easily recognizable by her signature pair of" Dave coughs loudly which causes the next word to be mumbled "kaatars, which she brandishes whenever possible, she also has unremarkable black hair, you will notice how unremarkable her hair is, it is simply that unremarkable, her clothing can best be described as 'present' and her face is a standard issue human face, look just find the most unremarkable woman with a bunch of false claims that she spouts constantly and carries a pair of" Straight Dave coughs again, which causes the next word to be mumbled "kaatars, and kill her, and yes this is fragging worth 5,000 nuyen, I am actually this annoyed".
-
As Visrii attempted to enter the club he would find himself barred by the bouncer, who makes a tut-tut sound before saying the words "What about the words 'you can't enter' causes people to want to enter even more? When I said that you were banned I meant it, that bit wasn't a joke".
-
Halley would find that the door has in fact, remained locked, and a floating set of light blue words spell out the words "Key not found, any further attempts will be met with fines". Visrii's sudden decision to smoke bomb the place and attempt to ninja vanish was met by the bouncer half heartedly saying "Nooo wait that was a joke come back" only to suddenly switch to "And he's gone, that was quick, also I regret to inform you, but that was a lie, Knight Errant would like to bring you in for questioning, but there isn't a reward for finding you so you should be fine". Visrii would find no conveniently located fire escapes or open doorways this time, only long shadows suggesting long men with long knives and longer memories.
-
Halley would find the door to the lounge to be locked, there appears to be a small slot where a credstick may fit in the door After a few moments of awkward silence The Bouncer says "You look like you could use a drink" to Lexiel.
-
Robert succeeds in slowly but surely lifting the screeching man out of the hole, which may be a course of action he would come to regret.
-
Robert would in fact be hampered by the distance of the floor of the cave to the hatch, or in other words, he would need some device or object that would allow Harbin to climb upwards.
-
Straight Dave sits down on a chair in the nearby booth, and motions for the ones who have agreed to learn more about the job to sit down across him. After they have done so he clears his throat before saying "If it was completely and utterly legal, I wouldn't be paying 1,000 nuyen each for such a trifle". You notice his rather pronounced pair of sunglasses.
-
The bouncer simply motions for Halley to enter, while saying "Technically there isn't a bounty on you or the angelic woman accompanying you right now, and the walking and talking bullet can enter because I have always found mascots to be rather cute, Renaissance fair will have to leave right..." The bouncer looked at the screen of his PDA before saying "Now, every single bounty hunter in the city has been informed of your current location, I guess you better start running man, and don't forget to wear a gold and blue jumpsuit".
-
There are in fact no pikes left in the door, and the sound of marching has died out, Lancelot would find himself unable to see any of the red wearing men and women if he was peering out of the window. And there was in fact nothing of interest left tonight. It was a cold and windy night when....the angry insane man trapped downstairs started screaming as general weirdness happened around the tower.
-
The group would find the other grocery store survivors standing or sitting around and scanning the environment, except for the guy with two pistols, who is currently absent, although a rather small troll was slowly walking towards Darien, who would probably recognize the poor chap. It was at that point that a male ork in a loud brown pleather jacket walks into the place, he had no obvious armaments on his person, but you feel that he has more than a few tricks up his sleeves, and that you don't want to be the one on the receiving end of said tricks. The four of you would vaguely remember him as Straight Dave, and he breaks the ice by sitting down on a corner booth, and saying in his usual soft tone of voice "I have a job for the four of you, it isn't dangerous, and it pays 1,000 nuyen for each of you, now the question is simple, do you want to learn more?".
-
After Halley left the house the man in a Hazmat suit simply closed the door on The Bullet, before leaving his hazmat suit and continuing to eat the arm from earlier. The Weapon's World group finally arrives in front of the Psychedelic Pirate, where the bouncer from earlier simply says "You are wanted for questioning for your whereabouts tonight" the man points at Visrii, "And thus you are not in fact allowed to enter, also seriously? Ben Dover? Also there are like...three or four men and women discussing ways on how to claim your bounty in there right now".

The data does nothing except playing the sound "Curiousity killed the cat" over and over.
