They looked at each other again, and the spokesperson looked sad for the first time.
They, uh...we found him outside town. They beat him up. Real bad. He didn't last very long. We know it was them, they had on the Shark rings they all wear. We could see it in his skin.
There was nodding and agreement.

The Council? Naww, man. They'd call down the law on us. I mean...look at us. He gestured to the tied-up man, who was simply watching all this with mild amusement.
We're not talking to the coppers. Unless it's that blue girl, am I right fellas?
There was a few cheers and handslapping.

"She is quite a looker, if you're into second hand goods."
Orp rubbed his hands behind his back.
"I have a bit of influence with the council. If you play for me against the Jaw-Sharks, I'll pay you and I'll get an investigation going for what happened to Johnnyboy. How's that sound boys?"
OOC: Does no one remember that the one cyclops in town is on the council?

((Haha, I assumed they knew he was, but they didn't think it was important.)) The spokesman folded his arms.
Whaddaya mean by "investigation," huh? Gonna go out and take a look around, say it's good? We're gonna need a little more assurance than that, 'specially since we know it was the Sharks that done it. But... He looked around.
If you can prove it was or it wasn't, we'll play. If it wasn't, we got no beef with them. If it was...well, a lot can happen on the field. Injuries. You know?

"I'd probably start by talking to the Sharks and hearing there side. But if all of you are willing to testify that he had shark imprints on him that's a solid start. I will not condone unsportsmanlike conduct in my games though."
Go have your investigation. Then come back and talk to us.

"I don't have very much time to assemble teams, so I went straight to the best. You guys seem like masters. I promise you I will start the investigation. What can I do as assurance?"
The spokesperson was quiet a moment, then he spoke.
Promise us if you find out who killed Johhnyboy, you'll do 'em in for us. No matter who it is. We'll play your game, cyclops.

You got a deal. He turned to the rest of the gang.
Let's get our shit together, boys. We're gonna have to be top of our games if we're playing the damn Sharks.
They walked away, discussing things among themselves. One of them stayed behind to untie the man they'd been tormenting and take their ball. Orp would have to decide his next course of action.

The Jaw-Sharks were across town in the abandoned church. The building was dilapidated, but still standing. The doors were long gone, and he could hear the noise of a ball bouncing and shouts from inside the building as he approached.
