1st Floor Staff Room

Damian stands in front of the Staff Room door. He watches a pair of Secret Service Agents walk by which he nodded to, but as soon as they were out of site he tries the door. "Shit...it's locked." He grumbled. He pulls out his lighter. His lighter, which was made of TG01, the same material that was found on Rockfort Island back in the late 90's. He had a hidden compartment which had a few of his lockpicks stored inside. He pulls out a pair of picks and then proceeds to pick the lock of the door. After a few seconds of probing the lock, the door's lock on the other side clicks open, and he quickly opens the door and enters, locking the door again. "Okay... time to look around." he starts when he feels his phone vibrate. He brings it up and answers. "Hello?"

"Hey mate it's Ben, I've more or less finished up here i don't think i'll find anything else of use but i have found what appears to orders for the university regarding the presidents arrival we can check it out later if you like, need any help down there or you all good? *As Ben is on the phone he walks through the 2nd floor hallway*

Damian nods. "Interesting. Well I just picked the lock of the first floor's staff room. I haven't quite searched the room yet, but if your finished up there then come down here. Just knock three times and I'll let you inside." He says taking a seat on the couch. His cigar smolders which he places inside a cigar case. It was rather lavish for a small staff room.

"okay mate i'm on my way down" Ben ends the call and makes his way to the first floor.

Damian slips the phone back into his coat and walks over to the filing cabinet, rummaging through the contents for anything that may be useful.

Ben walks into the staff room he turns to Damian "I would have thought with the president coming security would be a lot tighter, not that I'm complaining. Okay where shall we start.

He nods. "It's almost too quiet. By all rights I don't think we should have even been allowed to even get inside...But regardless." he points to a couple filing cabinets and a laptop that was in the corner. "Either one of those, which ever you prefer. We may find something useful."

"I'll take the laptop might be able to find some other useful info" Ben picks the laptop up and sits down on the chair he plugs his phone in as he did before and begins the hacking process.

He gets into the laptop fairly easily "man a 5 year old would be able to hack into these systems" he then looks at the screen which reveals 4 different options

-University Blueprints
-A text file of the University Schedule
- Memo to Head Dean
- Email from DSO Agent L.Kennedy
"Looks like there's some interesting stuff on here Damian, I'll download it so we can check it out later" Ben downloads the four files to his phone. "Wait a minute DSO Agent L.Ken, that's who it was it must have been, looks like we have a mutual friend here mate he turns the laptop to Damian and points to the file with the DSO Agents name.

"A five year old, huh? That's still more know how how than I have when it comes to hacking." he said as he sifted through the files. That is when he heard something about a 'mutual friend'. "Mutual friend?" He walks up to the computer and his eyes widen a little. "Well now... this really is becoming a Raccoon City Reunion." he chuckled slightly.

"heh, i know right but that's what worries me with so many Survivors from Raccoon" Ben pauses for a moment with a slight worried look on his face "I just get the feeling that something bad's gonna happen, i just hope i'm wrong Ben then finally adds "Now that i think about it i'm sure he bumped into me upstairs just as i was about to go into the administration room i could be wrong because i only caught part of his name on his badge DSO Agent L.Ken, he was long gone by the time i realized though" Ben then asks Damian "You found anything useful mate?"

"Well I guess it comes with the territory. Only a couple hundred out of 100,000 survived the Raccoon City Outbreak. No one else knows what we know, what we've been through...what we've seen." he pauses for a moment, a frown upon his face as he stands before the open file cabinets. He half turns his head. "No.. I haven't yet." he goes back to the cabinet again and sifts through the folders and paused again when he found something useful. "Ah there we go." he pulls out the manila folder labeled: "Floor Plan" and sets it upon the coffee table. "Thats one," he says going back to the cabinet and then pulled out another folder before dropping it upon the other, this one labeled as: "Staff Passes". He opens this folder and finds a sheet with sectors followed by a series of six digit codes. "There we go, in case we have to head into one of these areas-- B12 and the East Wing Dormitory. The passcode is 335016; if we're trying to head into the Staff Offices or the Underground Garage near the courtyard the code is 673592." he says, ignoring some of the other codes which were for maintenance rooms and the Gym Locker Room. He took notice of one of the codes, and spoke nothing of it to Ben, instead silently committing it to memory. "So, thats what our search has come up to. A few files, maps and passcodes. Do we need anything else?" He asked Ben, feeling as though he forgot something.

Ben scratches his head "hmmm don't think so, oh wait" Ben takes Damian's Samurai Edge out and spins it around his finger the same way someone would with a Revolver "oh yeah still got it" he then passes the gun to Damian "here you go mate, i think that's more or less it" Ben then spot's a pair of Aviator sunglasses and in a childish tone he says "oooo i like these"

Damian pulls out Ben's handgun, spinning it as well, but adds a toss of the heavier piece into the air, grabbing it by the barrel and boarder shifts the gun, spins it on his left hand's middle finger, spins it sideways, reverses the spin before he stopped showing off. He half grinned, handing him his handgun back butt first. "...an old friend taught me that." he says, taking his gun back and spins it into his shoulder holster.

He shakes his head in Ben's response to the aviators. "Heh, he liked aviators as well." he says pulling out a cigarillo and lights it up with his lighter. Ben may have noticed the engravings upon it, the D and H on one side, while the other had Japanese characters. He puffs on the tobacco, and swings his lighter's top closed. He turns to Ben again with the stick hanging off the side of his mouth and raises an eyebrow. "So, anyplace else you'd like to check out? It's not even noon yet." he says grabbing the files. "I'm sure they won't be missing these anytime soon. Not while everyone still running around like chickens with their heads cut off.

Ben looked at Damian then back to his gun "yeah i'm not even gonna attempt that" Ben chuckled as he took his gun and added "i don't think so can't think of anywhere else to checkout at the moment, how about you anywhere you fancy checking out?" Ben then picked up the Aviators and put them on with a smile on his face

He shook his head. "No place in particular. I think I'm going to return to that Happy Burger place, grab a quick bite and have a look around the town. So far from my arrival late afternoon, I've only come to a Bar ran by an asshole, a street littered with glass and an Emergency Room. I'd like a better handle on the city, scope out the shops as well, and observe the Police presence here." he states. "Unless there's someplace you'd rather be at the moment, I'm blowing this Popsicle stand."

"I'll second that, i'll tag along with you for a while if that's okay could do with something to eat myself, i should probably go get my car back too" Ben finished with a chuckle

Damian chuckled. "Sure. I can do with some company. Well then, after you mate." he says opening the door for Ben. He tossed his car keys to him. "You can drive, my shoulder's still aching from this morning." he says rubbing his shoulder. It wasn't just that, his entire body felt pain stricken.

Ben catches the car keys "Well we have had quite a day so far being shot at and all but sounds like you had a bit of fun before all of that" Ben finished with a chuckle makes his way to the entrance of the university

Damian felt a bead of sweat trickle down the side of his head. He brought up one hand and ran it through his hair on the right side of his head, then started scratching the back of his head, Damian's trademark nervous pose. "Well...I wouldn't quite call it 'fun' rather than falling down an escalator that is perpetually going up." he says this then sighs again. "Well I'll be right outside with you, I'm going to check one more place quickly." he calls back closing and relocking the door behind him. He turns to face the opposite end of the hall. His face expressing determination, he walks down the hall towards the double doors that would lead to the 'Banquet Hall'.

Ben chuckles slightly "Sounds more painful than fun then, Okay mate see you outside" Ben then goes in the opposite direction to Damian and makes his way back outside.
