Keith put away his dishes, it was time to log back into Evolution.
Super looked around. He was in his office that hung above Atlantis. The first thing he did was to check his incoming messages. There were a good many of them and most of them were work related. HE began to organize the information while he sat at his desk. He didn't find any of the information particularly intriguing, but he would still be able to sell it for money.
While he was doing that, a figure appeared in the center of his office.
"Hey Boss, Sneaky thinks he latched onto something valuable this time. He has been waiting for you to come back online." Said Bubblegumfairy as she walked around his desk and sat on the arm of his chair.
"Oh yeah? Where is he now?" Super asked.
Bubblegumfairy pouted while throwing her long legs across his lap. "Aren't you going to ask me how I have been?"
"I… We should focus on work right now." Super said while pushing her legs off of him and standing up. The way Bubblegumfairy was always coming onto him made him a bit nervous. He still didn't entirely believe it was real.
"Aww boss… why don't you like me? Don't say I am not your type, because we both know that I can look like whatever you want." She said while grabbing his arm and tightly held it against her chest while softly pouting. "If you don't like women, you can tell me, and I will stop."
"What?! I like ladies." Super quickly said.
"He, he, that is good for me. It means you don't want me to stop." She said while resting her head on his shoulder.
*Cough* *Cough*
Super cleared his throat. "Where is Sneakysnake?"
"Hmpf, he is at the guild headquarters of the BluePines." She answered.

"Good." Super said while packing up the things on his desk. They left his office through the shadow tunnel and returned to the city below. It didn't take long to head to the warehouse with all the shadow tunnels. Since he had been the one to set up most of the tunnels, he knew instantly, which on it was that he needed to take.
When Super was about to step through, he realized the Bubblegumfairy wasn't following him. He turned around and looked at her.
"Aren't you going to come with me?" He asked.
"Of course, boss." She said with a big smile and then ran to catch up to him.
The tunnel had been enhanced many times, so there walk to the other side didn't take to long, much to Bubblegumfairy's disappointment.
"Okay, we are almost there. It is time to be serious now." Super said to the young woman who kept teasing him the whole way over.
"Fine, fine, but if I mess up, you can always punish me later boss." She said with a wink before rushing out of the tunnel before Super.
He only shook his head before following.
Stepping out of the shadow tunnel, Super looked around. They were in a deserted area in the slums of a large city. This was a capital of one of the northern countries. Currently, the drow were far away from this place and were not an immediate threat. But there was a constant fight between the two largest guilds that are based in the city.
Walking towards the headquarters of the BluePines guild, Super stood outside after arriving at the main gate.
"Who are you? What do you want?"
"He is SuperSleuth. You hired one of his guys and now our man needs some help." Bubblegumfairy yelled out before Super could answer.
"Oh, you are with Sneaky? That guy is pretty nice. Let me show you the way."

The guard said while opening the gate for the two of them to come in.
Bubblegum slightly shook her head.
"What is it?" Super asked.
"I am always impressed by the way that guy works. It seems like everyone already knows him here and wants to be his friend."
Super nodded. "He is very gifted in that sense. He is great at being able to get people to talk to him."
The guard led the two towards a building on the outskirts of the guild territory and then directed them inside.
"Why did you send Sneaky into this guild anyway?" Bubblegum asked. "It seems a bit different from what we normally do."
"BluePines came to me to see if I had any information about a traitor in their guild. I told them I didn't but that I could send someone to poke around inside. They were not thrilled with that idea and we compromised by stationing Sneaky here, and BluePines decided that they would send the people they were concerned about over to him instead. That way we wouldn't have free reign to snoop through their guild."
Bubblegum nodded as they went deeper into the almost empty building.
Outside of a room were two guards that were playing cards. When they saw people approaching, they immediately tried to hide the cards and look like they had been working hard the entire time.
A soft and gentle voice drifted out from the inside, putting the two at ease. "Don't worry guys, these are my friends. Why don't you let them inside and then keep relaxing?"
The two guards complied without hesitation and opened the door so the guest could enter before returning to their card game.
Inside was a lavishly decorated room. A man with glasses, sat on a thick plump couch while a woman in a maid's outfit poured him a cup of tea. She had it to him and then moved around back while massaging his shoulders and pressing her bust into the back of his head.
In front of him was a man that was sitting in a plain and ordinary chair. The man was slumped over and had a dazed look in his eyes.
"That will be all for now dear." Sneaky said to the maid who then bow and left the room.
"Looks like you have had no problem making friends here." Bubblegum said.
Sneaky smiled. "Of course, everyone is so nice here. And the guards are even kind enough to relaxed the rules of our agreement."
"What have you found. I assume it is something important since our agreement prevented you from sharing it through the interface." Super said.
When he spoke, Sneaky subconsciously sat up straight.
"You are right boss. Its this guy here." Sneaky snapped his fingers and the NPC in the chair came out of his daze.
"What, huh, what's happening. Of Sneaky, that's right, we were having a nice chat. Oh, who are these two?"
"This is my boss and a colleague. Why don't you tell them the last thing you told me?"
"Oh yeah, sure. No problem, anything for a good friend like you Sneaky." The man then turned towards Super and Bubblegum. "Well like I was saying before. The guild leader noticed that there has been some strange murmurings among the dwarves. He overheard them talking about a dwarven citadel. Wanting to raid it for the expensive materials, the guild leader and a few others have determined that it is in the shadow realm. They think that since it is a new and untested citadel, it should be easier to raid compared to the ones that have been standing for centuries."
