Archived La Vie de Luxe - Oh Canada!
The one-time world's greatest salesman snapped a look to his rear view mirror and, from the red light of his Buick, could see the blond girl driver behind him. It's ACME alright, young, plucky, with an electric car. Classic. Dang she looks mad, and she was moving closer too. Seeing lights up... -

"Yeahum..." Vic thought about where a good quiet spot was going to be. "Ya remember the Ritz, ah? Where Carmen was nights ago, you got meet me in the alley there, but I can't stick around long. If I ain't find ya tonight, I report back to Carmen, say it's a bust, then we start over." -

While the two ACME agents exchanged parts to a plan, an oblivious Vic the Slick was still trying to figure out a way to lose the one remaining car on his tail. "We're city-bound," Vic said to Dragon, "when we hit traffic, it's gonna get harder to lose this one, ah? You try give it a scare again... -

Kid's got some firepower! Vic smiled, "good job!" He laughed as they sped past Nina's car. Take that ACME. Knowing they weren't in the clear, Vic planned a new route in his head. -

"Ah haa!" Vic laughed, "Look at that, not this time, coppers!" He steered from side to side, but couldn't get through. Dang fancy electric cars! "Hey you got any ideas?" he asked the passenger. -

Vic cursed a little, seeing another car turn off the intersection and following them. That's cop maneuver, no bones about it. "We've been nice, Tike," time to shake them off. It didn't matter if there was something wrong with the car and that Canadian with the blinking headlights was right... -

"Looks like someone's sniffed our trail," Vic said to the rear view mirror, "keep them explosives safe, ah? We're taking detours." Vic's not bad at losing cops... he learned that in Italy, where he knew how almost everything worked. Italian car chases were a dozen a day. Buicks were bigger than... -

[All youse up for a car chase?] Vic got into the Buick after Dragon did and started driving towards the seedier parts of down town Montreal. Nights before, he met Carmen at the Ritz Carlton, but that part of downtown was fancy and didn't need any kind of vandalism. Closer to town but still on... -

Vic, already nervous, jumped and dropped the car keys. Brushing himself off and picking them up, he looked at Dragon with a chuckle. "Ain't got the kindda bones I used t have, y'know," he looked around again, "Get in the Buick, ah? We're going down town!" -

Vic was watching the road nervously when he felt someone watching him. Hoping that it's Dragon, his partner for now, and not ACME, Vic looked around, seeing if he could spot anything. In his hand was a map and a set of car keys for an old Buick. If they were going down town, they were going... -

Vic pulled up his collar and put on a hat, then put his hands in his pockets. He thought about asking Carmen again, do a little check to see if she's right with this Dragon character, but again, he kept it to himself. For the rest of the night, he called the gambling rehab place for his dear... -

"Down town it is!" Vic put his notebook away and texted some people on his phone. "I'm getting some plastic sent to the area, should get there after dark." The old town houses in downtown were due to be demolished any way, and Vic explained this to Dragon in detail. He had a hand-drawn map of... -

Vic listened and was half happy that the girl was skilled, the other half of him wasn't sure about her pride. The proud ones from the start don't stick with VILE very long. Carmen likes 'em proud, she thinks it shows character, but that's her judgement, not his. From his experience dealing with... -

"Yeahum," Vic started in a low voice, "you got yer claws, ah? They're good. What else can ya do for us. My specialty, I get info. I can dig the dirt on what's where, maybe do a little accounting on the side, and I sniff out the bad seeds before they bother the boss, see." Vic looked... -

The steak house was at least 10 years old, and you could tell where it was just by walking down the street it was on. The smell was great, but the service doesn't exist. You order your food, they give it to you with plastic utensils, you eat, that was the deal. Vic ordered two steaks, one for... -

"Then let's go get breakfast, Girlie, what do you eat?" asked Vic while he pulled out the phone's battery and SIM card. Then VILE's best Salesman put it on the ground, smashed the thing with his foot, picked up a tiny gold modified chip that fell out, and kicked the rest of the phone into the... -

Supposedly, Vic was a pro, having been with Carmen longest, if you deduct the time Sarah Nade left VILE for Hawaii. Sarah's always got a teeny ledge over him that way. He's seen a few things, but that don't make it easier meeting a girl with claws and fangs for the first time at a quiet place...
