The next morning you all arrive via cab at the offices of Nelson and Murdock.

Tsukune Aono ♀
Considering the rather sorrowful nature of the meeting (and the fact she had, obviously, still not turned back into a guy), Tsukune was wearing a conservative, but fairly pretty black dress, along with matching 2-inches pumps. Getting off the cab and helping the other girls get off, she paid the driver and looked at the offices in front of them, sighing.
"And here we are... let's do this", she said, unconsciously holding Moka's hand in hers. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2 stones into Agility to help the girls get off the cab.
When everybody'S ready, following inside to get to the meeting.

You arrive in Murdock's office to find him. "Ahhh. Ms. Aono, and Company. Please take a seat, and I'll begin reading the will." He says noticing all of you, and who you really are despite clearly being blind.

"Thank you, mister Murdock..." Tsukune paused for a few seconds, looking at her friends. "Huh?"
She didn't say it guessing now wasn't the moment, but she was wondering how the heck had Murdock been aware that he was a she. She'd only been a Kämpfer for a few days... had Ruby told him about what had happened?
Shrugging it off, she pulled the chairs for the other girls, before sitting down with them, her hands crossed on her lap as she listened patiently and silently to the will of their lost teacher.

Murdock reads the will. It turns out he really admired your abilities to follow him. He gave you his armor, a key to a weapons cache on a private island with zero gun laws whatsoever... and finally a strange serum of some kind.
"Hmmm... Funny it doesn't say what's in the bottle... All it says is only you are legally allowed to drink it." Murdock says with a scowl as he runs his hand along the... printed ink.

Tsukune was surprised, by just how much she seemed to matter to Tony Masters. She never expected him to put her on his testament in the first place, let alone give her so many things. However, that serum thing really sounded fishy.
"It... doesn't say anything about it anywhere, except that I'm the only person allowed to drink it?" She repeated. "That's...kind of... really strange. Um, does it say anything about being able to analyze its contents beforehand?", she asked with hesitation.

"Yes... But it specifies that all notes and data must be destroyed immediately afterwards." Murdock says.

"Well, that's good to know...", Tsukune said with relief. "I have a lot of respect for Mr. Masters, but... I'm not sure I'd drink some sort of unidentified serum if I didn't know anything about it."
She took the vial carefully and held it, looking at it for a moment.
"Ruby... do you have any spell, or item, or something that can tell us what this is, and which either leaves no info behind or can erase the data afterwards?", she asked, looking at the girl.

"Of course." Ruby says. "I just need some time to prepare."
"Then it's settled." Matt says handing you the vial. "In the meantime you should probably arrange a meeting with Agent Phil Coulson of SHIELD... Given Taskmaster's background, he is the one who is making the public funeral arrangements."

"Of course. I just need some time to prepare."
"Alright. Thanks Ruby... We'll check it out later then", Tsukune said with a faint smile, seemingly troubled. If Tony Masters left her that serum, and specifically wanted only her to 'have the legal right' to drink it, it was because he actually wanted her to drink it. But if he remembered her well, he probably knew that she'd probably drink it anyway had she not known about it, which means he still left the choice up to her, but probably really wanted her to drink it. But why her specifically? ...He also left her the Taskmaster armor, which probably meant a lot to the man. It would seem she had left a much bigger impression on him than she thought.
"Then it's settled. In the meantime you should probably arrange a meeting with Agent Phil Coulson of SHIELD... Given Taskmaster's background, he is the one who is making the public funeral arrangements."
Tsukune nodded, seemingly still dealing with it all.
"Okay... Agent Phil Coulson, SHIELD. Understood... Thank you, mister Murdock. Is the armor and the key here, in your office? ...And... maybe directions to get to that private island...?", she asked, a bit concerned as to how they were going to get there in the first place. Merely by flying? ...Then again, why not. It was a private island, right?

"Not really they're in storage. I can arrange to have them dropped off at your Hotel later." He said.

"That works. ...Thank you very much... for everything." She waited for the blind lawyer to extend his hand or not, and would shake it if he did. "Is there anything else, or should we be on our way?"

Matt shakes your hand. "From a professional standpoint no, personally... I hope you put what Taskmaster left you... To better use than he did. Or just not use it at all."

"I'm pretty sure that won't be a problem", Tsukune said with a nod. "Thanks again. Have a good day, Mr. Murdock."
Tsukune stood up, looking at the others. "Ready to go, girls?"
If there were no objection, she'd head back to the apartment with the others.

You head back to the apartment to find it ransacked. Everything of value you left in your room was stolen.
