"Interesting..." Ayane said, checking her notes. "...Why were you chasing them in the first place?"
"Unidentified white van, going way beyond the speed limit and driving like nutjobs?" Natsumi pointed out.
"Was there anything in the van aside from Bebop and Rocksteady?"
"Umm... nope. It was empty aside from them."
"...So they drew you to them", Kasumi concluded. "It was a trap to get you... after arresting their men the day before. Was it?"
Natsumi blinked. "...Huh... you know, I didn't see it like that, but... maybe?"

"That is a possibility." Miyuki admitted.

"Hmm... so the Foot Clan is targeting you", Kasumi noted, thoughtful. "I'll be blunt... you're both in danger."
"Meh. We eat danger for breakfast", Natsumi said. Though she was a bit uneasy, she still seemed confident they could deal with this.
"Is that so?" Ayame asked. "In that case... are you willing to help us draw the enemy out in the open?"

"We could try, I guess." She said. "By the way... Do either of you happen to know anything about a local vigilante named Casey Jones?" She asked. "From what we understand he seems to their enemy too."

"We read his file", Ayane responded. "...No serious antecedents... a few cases of violence, all directed at petty criminals... some vigilantism, but tolerated by the local police."
The chief nodded. "...I already have my hands full with catching criminals and protecting people, I don't really have the resources to deal with people fighting crime without the consent of the law", he said with a shrug.
"That's not really a concern for the F.B.I", Kasumi admitted. "Why do you ask?"

"Well if we are not considering him a threat, than I suppose it's somewhat safe if we show you this." She said displaying the note to the Chief, and the agents. "He seems to consider my partner and I potential allies."

"Hmm..." Kasumi let out, as both agents observed the note.
"...This guy is fighting the Foot Clan on his own? Who does he thinks he is, Bruce Lee?" Ayane said, raising an eyebrow.
"Well, from the report, he had already dealt with most of the Foot clan members when you girls had arrived two days ago, right?" Kasumi asked.
"Yeah. We arrested them, but that Casey guy had messed them up before we got there" Natsumi explained.
"Hm. But... if you do go there, we might not be able to help you. If we show up, he probably won't...", Kasumi pointed out.

"Good point." She admitted. "I think we have to play it safe, and stick with you two." She said.

"That being said", Ayane pointed out, "if that letter was not truly written by Casey Jones... it might be a trap from the Foot Clan."
"And that we could use against them as a trap of our own", Kasumi added. "How good exactly are you two against multiple enemies at once?"
Natsumi smiled, looking at Miyuki.
"...We're pretty good... right?"

"Put me behind the wheel, and I can handle just about anything." She said.

"Wonderful. Then how about this... we go to this meeting of yours, us along for the ride, and we see if the Foot Clan will be there. Our own forces will be hidden away a certain distance from the target zone, so it will take a moment for them to show... but if this works, we might catch a large part of the group in one fell swoop."
"If the Foot Clan doesn't show up", Ayane continued, "then we have to assume Jones was the one who wrote the note and that we missed the opportunity. That wouldn't be a big deal, we can prepare another plan afterwards. How does this sound?"

"I'd say ir works for me." She said.

"I'm in", Natsumi said, giving them a thumbs up.
"Good. Wanna take the day off and meet with us for the appointed time, or still work your day and come with us anyway?" Kasumi asked.

Miyuki looked at Natsumi. "Well I guess a day off before a big assignment would be nice, what do you think Partner?" She asked.

"Sure. Why not?" Natsumi said with a big smile.
"Very well. Feel free to do as you please until then, but please be careful. We don't know where, or when the Foot clan will act, but I doubt they will do so in the middle of the day in public areas", Kasumi noted.
