Gregor was unsettled by the girl's smile, it was as if her words meant one thing, but her eyes told another story entirely. Gregor clenched his fists but hid them beneath the desk so they were out of sight. Gregor may have known what kind of family background she came from, but whether she could find the Plugger was another story entirely. Gregor knew from spies and an assortment of other sources of information that most of this girl's life had been devoted to warfare, not crime. He had no doubts about her military prowess, but when it came to catching criminals, his son was the best in Providence, maybe even in all of Louisiana, but he was dead. But that didn't matter, all that mattered now was that the bastard was found, so for just this once, he humored Tamerlane.
"Miss Tamerlane, I don't doubt your prowess, but do you really think this is the kind of work for a soldier of fortune? Regardless I would be glad to have your help. My son supposedly had a lead on the killer, and was following up on it when he was slain. I wish I could tell you what that lead was but they found his body near the Bridge so the killer likely lived, or at least operated near there. That's the most I can do for you, but unless you have any further questions, I have business to attend to."
"Thank you for your time sir. The killer will be yours within a week at most."
She flashed another smile and exited the office, gathering her weapons as she exited. The Bridge eh? May as well go there and see what happens.....

Well, this Bridge is a pretty rundown place, she thought to herself, scanning the area. She was tired and hungry. Maybe a nice smoke and some pork n' beans are needed.
She lit up her cigarette as the beans cooked on the skillet over the fire. She sprinkled it with some seasoning and monitored the area as she smoked......
