The plane began its decent to an abandoned area just out side the city of Santa Barbra. Marcus was gripping the armrests during the whole decent. When they landed, Marcus turned to the triplets and said "OK guys, we are going to visit a friend of mine. He runs a bar near here, and he is an excellent hacker. So we are going to stop by to give him a little visit OK?"

(The triplets began to unbuckle their seat belts. They stood up, shaking that numbing feeling everyone gets from a long flight. The triplets looked at Marcus with confusion written across their faces. The three boys didn't know the reason for meeting this friend of Marcus's. James rubbed his eyes, just having woken from his long sleep. He turned to Marcus.)
James: Alright, but why are we visiting him in the first place?

Marcus looked at the triplets with an ammused grin on his face. "Well, he also has a room for me in the attic of the bar and that has a change of clothes for me." He explained. "Plus we need to get security passes and codes for us. Well, maybe V.I.P. guest passes for the three of you." Marcus waited for the triplets to catch on then continued, "And we need a plan of action before we go in there."

(After Marcus's explanation, the triplets felt more at ease knowing why they were there. The three of them were ready to follow Marcus, but there was still one more thing they needed to know.)
Nick: Should we bring our luggage?

Marcus had an amused expression pass across his face. "Well, Duh!" He exclaimed. " What did you think we where going to sleep on the plane? Well I don't know about you but I think that those seats are damn uncomfortable." He said, then addressing one of the pilots he asked "How long is it on foot?"
"About twenty to thirty minutes, sir." The pilot replied.
Marcus thought about it for a minute then said his thanks to the pilot.
"OK boys, its about a thirty minute walk from here to the city. If You three don't complain too much you three can decide which car to pick. But you have to pick a car by the time we get there or else I am picking. Got it?" He explained to the triplets. Each one then nodded in turn. "Good. Now try to keep up." Marcus said as he marched out the door.

(As Marcus was leaving, the triplets grabbed hold of their luggage and quickly ran out the door behind Marcus. The area they were in was mostly mountain terrain. It was a warm sunny day, a clear skies, and they could see the clear shinning ocean from where they were. The thought of the cool water gave the triplets the desire to go spend some time at the beach. However, knowing that they were on a mission, they knew that that was not possible and they quickly shrugged the idea. They continued to walk, trying to keep up with Marcus.)

Marcus smiled as the triplets rushed to keep up with him. He looked around and found a hiking trail. He trusted his instincts to get him to the city, but he knew that his seance of direction was not the best. "So, do any of you have drivers licenses?" He asked.

(When Marcus asked the triplets if they had a drivers license, they taken back by the question. They all knew how to drive, however neither of them had the chance to formally get their licenses. They chose not to get their licenses, and for good reason.)
James: We all know how to drive, yes... but.
Nick: But neither of us have our licenses.... the reason why is because.
Alex: The truth is, we've been working for Count for many, many years. So we have been mutant terrorists for a huge portion of our lives. When we turned old enough to get our driver's licenses.
James: Let's just say we would rather not risk being found and arrested, just because we went to the local DMV.
Nick: Yeah, that would be a lame way to go.

Marcus had a surprised look on his face as he looked at each of the triplets as they spoke. When he got the full response he smiled at the triplets. "Well that kinda makes seance." Marcus said. "I guess it doesn't matter since we are already going to be breaking about a gazillion laws." He continued walking on the trail.
After what felt like forever to Marcus and the triplets they finally reached Santa Barbra. Marcus led them to a neighborhood-ish area, turned and faced the kids and asked "So have you three picked out a car?"

(The neighborhood they were in could easily be classified as higher middle class. The triplets looked around and spotted a silver Porsche that was shinning beautifully in the sun. Alex stood next to Marcus and pointed at the car.)
Alex: That one over there.

Marcus smiled as he said, " I like your style kid! Alright, have any of you ever hotwired a car?" At this the triplets shook their head. "Well its time you learned how!" Marcus continued. They walked over to the car, punched the window out, and unlocked the door. The alarm sarted as soon as he punched the window. Marcus opened the door and hastily pushed the alarm button. Instantly the alarm stopped.
"Well I didn't think that that would work. Welp, gather round people. Here is how you do it. You take a knife, you... hump... pry off the key holder, and you insert the knife like so. Now no sexual jokes. Then you start the car. Like so." As he said what to do he actually did it. Instantly the car started to rev. "And there you have it." He finished.
When the triplets got in the car, Marcus pulled out and started to drive to L.A. He actually didn't speed untill they where on the highway, where his foot hit the floor. They reached 95 mhp. for most of the trip. " So, lets talk plans of action. When we get to Jack's bar, I will go in first then probably send someone out to get you. Kay?" The wolfen shifter asked.

(The triplets watched with interest as Marcus was demonstrating how to hotwire a car. The triplets were always curious in learning new skills. Nick began to open his mouth and was about to make a joke when Marcus mentioned no sexual jokes. The boy slowly closed his mouth and rolled his eyes in disappointment. Once the engine turned on, the triplets applauded before going inside the car. Nick and James sat in the back, while Alex sat in the front. They all buckled up and prepared for the ride. To the triplets' surprise, they were going rather slow. That was until the car reached the highway. At that moment, they were going so fast that almost every second they were close to getting into a car crash. James was on the verge of vomiting, while Nick felt like passing out. To the triplets they might as well have called the drive the "Highway to Hell." Once Marcus proposed the supposed plan, Alex turned to Marcus.)
Alex: Why can't we go inside with you?

"Well first off you three are 17. You have to be 18 years before you can get into the bar. But we are breaking so many laws right now that it really doesn't matter." Marcus replied, then, before any on the triplets could reply he said, " He is a bit... Skittish. When he sees me he gets nervous for some reason. Don't know why."
Marcus almost missed the exit to Jack's bar. He made a swift lane change and took the exit. When they got closer, Marcus said "Uh... yeah just stick in the car for a bit... Um... Don't panic at anything, OK?"

(With Marcus's answers, the triplets felt that they now had more questions than answers. However, they knew that Marcus would not give them a good enough answer so they just kept silent. That was until Marcus requested that the boys should not panic. Now they wanted to know.)
James: Why is there a need to panic?

"Because... Well that is a very good question." Marcus said as he got more and more confused. "Um... I don't really know. Well you might hear a couple of gunshots and people might come flooding out of there... But aside from that. Well you should be fine."
Marcus started to slow down once they got close to the bar. When they got there, Marcus realized that they may have a hard time parking the car in a normal spot. So he pulled right into a handicap spot right next for the door. "OK, here we are. I will be right back."
Marcus jumped out of the car and walked inside the bar. It was set up like an old fashioned saloon. Wooden chairs and tables where scattered around the main area. There was a couple of poker tables to the right and a bar in the back. There where mutant two exotic looking women serving people around the diner area and a plump man in the back.
Marcus shifted in the doorway for a bit, trying to get his guns out. Once they where out and slightly hidden he shouted "Alright everybody out!" Suddenly the bar got real quiet and everybody looked at Marcus. The two ladies let out a hiss that sounded like a sword sliding out of its sheath and the bartender let out a low stream of cuss words.
Marcus saw that no one was moving so he brought out his gun and fired three rounds into the ceiling "Everybody out. NOW!" he shouted. Everybody immediately flooded out the door. The bartender began to move toward the door but Marcus shot a bullet right past his ear. "Not you Jack. Nor your pretty ladies." Marcus said to Jack as a wolfish grin was placed on his face.
When everybody was out Marcus put the gun away and started to crack up. "Damn, man you should have seen the look on your face! " He said when he got his breath back. " Hey girly can you pick up my friends in the car? Thanks." Marcus said to one of the waitresses.
"The name is Echidna." The waitress said. They both had long straight black hair, tan skin, and slender frames. Echidna had silted yellow eyes hidden beneath blue contacts, giving her beautiful green eyes. The other , named Sylvana, had brown eyes, and green scales on her fore arms and shins which she covers with long flowing elegant gowns.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Echidna walked out of the bar and into the parking lot. " You have got to be shitting me. " She said as she saw the triplets in the prosche. Echidna was compleatly unprepared for teens.
"Yo! You all with Marc?"
