The solo pulled up a few blocks away from the site and stowed her cheap old Hella in a small alley. It was a beater at first glance. Not particularly fast compared to a suped up bike or luxury car, but she got a few upgrades under the hood to keep it churning smoothly. The chassis was a weather faded matte black and brown, almost blending with most of Night City's industrial areas besides the neon strip that lit under the grill when the Hella grumbled to life. Low key, a rumbly little engine, and inconspicuous and<em>shit</em>enough she could park anywhere that even the most desperate Scav wouldn't try to dismantle her. Perfect for her in-n-out jobs.<br/><br/>Moving through the streets on the way to the warehouse made Val keenly aware of how quiet things were getting the closer she got to the co-ords. Not that it put a damper on the little jolt in her heavy booted step...<br/><br/>It would be an understatement to say she was chomping at the bit to scout the warehouse the fixer Choko sent them the deets on; though she was doing a decent job of keeping that teeming excitement under wraps once she arrived before the time she advised for the others. It was only a suggestion after all. And something told her the sleek darkly clad male solo could be just as likely to have his sights on<em>her</em>back while she was watching Maelstrom gonks mulling about. Never could be too careful when a rag tag group had to hit a gig together, especially without prior history.<br/><br/>Honestly, she wouldn't even be mad if the sneaky one was around without her noticing. She'd be impressed.<br/><br/>Valkyre went up the building across the street from the massive chain link lined warehouse using the rusted fire escape for a bit of help to reach the half-shielded rooftop. It looked like an abandoned apartment complex but considering the conditions a lot of Night City's people lived in, especially on outskirts like this, she didn't put it past anyone to be living in that decrepit box while not even scraping by. Maelstrom on the turf wouldn't make living any easier.<br/><br/>Even without her techgogs she could see the place was so still and not heavily guarded; Maelstrom were kinda lazy but literally falling asleep at the post was laughable - or a diversion? From her misguided time with the gang, they tended to err on the boisterous side so she wondered if it was just a front for whatever was in the warehouse walls.
