Catching Up
Jason tapped his cigarette into the ash tray on his desk and sneered. Lexi Baker, the pick pocket he had payed a retainer too, had skipped town with no word, the money he had paid her, and not a lick of work done. He was not happy. But Wolfram & Hart's network was wide. Someday he'd find her, and she would pay him back, with interest compounded. Oh, yes she would.

The dead were gone from Searchlight too. And some people weren't happy. Carruthers's Slayer had left town as well. He had contacted a couple agents to retrieve her and bring her to him. She might be a valuable ally.

But this still left the problem of the missing pick pocket. He could do the work himself, but he didn't want to be recognized. So he would have to hide who he was. That would be fun. Been a while since he'd tried to go "undercover." Should be a hoot. He just wanted to talk to Beth and set up his meeting with Tristan, and then he'd spend a while in that dirtspeck of a town. His smiled widened as he imagined what was going to come of all this.
