Stevie would roll her eyes. What a brat.

Leon would drink some more before lighting up his cigar. After two deep puff's he would respond.
"Well with those incidents things were hushed and kept quiet. No evidence, no trail. The Mall in particular seemed happenstance, just whoever was around. There wasn't a target. With the Korean Mafia they held an events to gather people, they filmed it themselves and encourages bystanders to film. They introduced themselves made it to where they were easily identifiable. They they threw molotov cocktails and the liquid and flames generated the black mist. It also seemed to only effect people directly struck so they used very large quantities. The mall was barely a puff cloud before everyone was at each others throats. To that end in the video's the people effected by that black mist were stunned in place by horror and didn't react to other people. An imperfect mirage, versus something you believe to be so real it has a physical form."

"I see... In that case I believe you might be wrong uncle. The two substances are different. The latter obviously being something that the Korean Mafia made, or bought, to make them seem more powerful and dangerous than they actually are. The possible connection, if any, would be that the Shadow Organization sold them off brand toxin telling them it was the same with the knowledge that the Korean Mafia would take the credit for both incidents therefore giving this Shadow Organization a Patsy with so that they could continue to work in secret while everyone focused on the Korean's."
She took a drink from Rai's flask and handed it back.
"At least, that's what I would do."
Rai pondered for a moment taking in everything that had been discussed.
"Unfortunately, if Trinity is right, and if they are as difficult to hunt down as you've suggested. Then the best course of action would to be to take down the Korean's completely, then wait for this other group to make another move. However, we should use the time that it will take removing the Korean's, to create some kind of trap for when this Shadow group makes a move again."

Stevie took a breath and let it out in a huff.
"Of course there is more than one strain. That was never in question. After the Koreans are taken out of the run, perhaps holding a large gathering. One that is advertised far and wide. If we make it sound big enough it will draw them out. It would be too tempting to refuse. If we find anything concrete in similarities with the people from the first attack we can advertise to them more."
Pause. Sip. Longer sip.

"I don't have the time or resources to go after the Korean Mafia at present. Too many difficulties have sprung up between my organization and one of the other big organizations of the city and most of my efforts are at making sure that doesn't erupt into all out war. As well my bid for Mayor are eating up my time and resources."
Leon scratched his temples as he held the cigar away from his head.

Rai lit up his Cigar at that moment and took a couple of puffs.
"What are the issues you're having with this other group?"

Siiiiiiiiip. Siiiiiiiip. Nom pizza. nom. nom. nom. siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiip. Stevie would get up from her chair as she finished her soda and get a new one from the mini fridge. She would also grab another Doctor Pepper for Leon as he was nearly finished as well.

Leon sighed, but graciously accepted the Dr Pepper. He'd contemplate how to respond without losing face.
"We have been at the table for a while now. Left each other to the territories we reside over. However, an incident broke out in their territory and quite a few of my people had gotten involved. Apparently someone to be sold off had tried to escape and one of my people knew the individual. Because of this we feuded openly. This caused a sharp rift. To make matters worse we discovered my guy was actually an undercover police officer who was specifically trying to stir up shit between the underworld organizations. A peace offering and hopeful sit down will take place soon."

Rai nodded.
"Good, how confident are you that these peace talks will work in your favor?"

Stevie would mumble "About as well as the Lightning Dragon ever does."

Giving a side glance to Stevie the Chairman of the Raijin Clan would smirk.
"Not high honestly. I believe they may have my Raijin Clan pull a job for them. Specifically one that goes against our belief and principal system as a show of force on their end, and proof of our possible obedience. At which time there will be issues."

Stevie would drink nearly half of her soda this time. It was time for a bottle of water after this soda.
"Assholes. All of em" She was still mumbling.

"Well, my organization deals in protection rackets, minor drug dealing, and some weapons trade and development. Otherwise it's gambling dens and brothels. We don't hold anyone to work for us against their will and we stand for certain virtues. This other organization deals in human trafficking, sex slaves, hazardous drugs and drug mule trafficking. International weapons sales and distribution to any and all buyers. Outright as it stands our standing armies may be comparable, but they still wave a bigger stick."
Leon didn't really want to go into all the things he disliked about RIOT, but with what he did say he was hoping it was express his concerns at the very least.

Rai nodded and puffed his Cigar.
"I see, so, you believe they will specifically try and get you to pull something that would defame you and in the end, grant them even more power by having you lose favor to the public eye. Which, in turn, will hurt you bid for the Mayor's position. Gotta admit, that's pretty clever..."
He puffed his cigar again.
"Is there a way for you to take control of the talks? Or at the very least take some power away from them to bring you both to an even position?"
