It got late and Hasegawa hadn't come home yet. Kerr figured to pick the kids from daycare and wait at their home for news. But Hasegawa did not appear that evening. They were all nervous - the kids as their mom had died and their dad did not return, and Kerr as he knew what people Hasegawa went to. Kerr decided to make pizza, big time. | |||

Hasegawa kneeled down as the Thug had told him. | |||
Hasegawa tried to talk himself out. "I'm doctor of genetics. Check your pad! I want to work on new technology. And I need you as a partner. I swear!" | |||
"Shut up", the thug shouted. "Why do I always get the crazy." | |||
Hasegawa noticed how the Thug get nearer while approaching from the back. | |||
Hasegawa panicked, he thought the thug would shoot him any moment. | |||
He let himself fall behind while spanning 180 degrees. | |||
Before the thug could adjust his aim the gun had been kicked out of his hand. | |||
The felt sideways, few meters away. | |||
They were both staring into one another's eyes. | |||
"What now?", the thug asked? | |||
Hasegawa had hiding something in this hand what he was exiting the passage. He thought that it would now save his life. | |||
"This is a data cube. It contains my works and plans. Here take it." | |||
"Sure", the thug murmured. He snapped with his fingers. The kids from before were swarming into the place. They had been hiding between the car wracks. They were holding arms, more exactly their arms were prosthetics, some kind of rifles. | |||
Hasegawa realized what he sensed before. It was their unnatural movements while playing soccer. They were some homeless the Syndicate took in to make them living weapons. | |||
The little killer cyborgs had them surrounded. | |||
"If he starts moving, shoot him", the thug commanded. He slowly picked the cube from Hasegawa's hand. "Now then, second round. I must insist that you kneel down and don't do the some stupid." | |||
Hasegawa looked one more time at the weapons pointed at him and figured that he had run out of other options. | |||
The thug gave him a hypo. "Use it." | |||
Hasegawa hesitated but then followed the command. In the next moments his mind went black, he fell to the ground. | |||

The next day Hasegawa was still missing so Kerr decided to go to the funpark to get rid of that tension. | |||
---- | |||
Hasegawa woke up again. "Hello sunshine", a familiar yet unpleasant voice said. | |||
He felt still dizzy. | |||
The thug emptied a bucket of water on him. "Sorry, we are out of coffee..." | |||
