Blake walking out side the office, pulls out his cell phone and dials in the contact number on the door... and waits for an answer, while walking a short distance down the sidewalk.

After a few rings, the line picks up and a woman's voice comes through from the other end.
"Lisa Schweiger's Realtor Office. How can I help you?"[/color]

Blake responds in a professional but friendly business tone to Ms. Schweiger.
"Hi, Ms. Schweiger (Blake lets a smile touch his voice), This is Mr Blake Richter..., I need to set up an appointment, in order to inquire about a certain property... an old Library that is currently boarded up... My schedule book is open this afternoon, if you have an opening to fit me in to your busy schedule, I'd love to meet and discuss with your company the possibilities of the property in question."
Blake waits with pen in hand to jot down the time.

A pause, and then:
"Not too busy today, Mr. Richter. Unfortunately we close early on Fridays. But I can meet you if you can make it before two o'clock."
She sounds polite, but slightly impatient and very busy. Luckily, this works for Blake and Anna, since it's only fifteen minutes to two.[/color]

Blake's smile broadens.
"Not a problem Ms. Schweiger I can be there in under 5 min. I'll see you shortly."
Blake hangs up the connection, and looks at Anna.
"Well, looks like we have an appointment!"
Blake grins.
"We have to get to the office within 5 min though... I think we do that though."
Blake chuckles as he turns about and walks the couple dozen feet to the office doors.

Anna grinned and followed Blake inside. So far it looked like they were having some luck. Hopefully, it would last. They were going to need it.

The office seems to have a reception desk, but no receptionist. There's a few seats, possibly for waiting clients, and a coffee machine. Standing next to the coffee machine is a rather harrassed looking woman in her mid-thirties. She looks quite surprised to see them. Apparently, she wasn't expecting Mr. Richter to make it in such a short time.[/color]

As Blake steps into the office, he notices the lady by the coffee machine.
Blake turns to her and offers a warm friendly smile.
"Hello, I'm Blake Richter, you must be Ms. Schweiger, and this is Anna, a colleague of mine."
Blake offers his hand to the lady for a firm but gentle handshake.
"As promised, under 5 minutes... and thank you, for letting us take up a moment of you time, it's most generous of you."
Blake makes sure to express a genuine gratitude... Ms. Schweiger has obviously had a full day.

"Oh, Mr. Richter. I didn't expect... well never mind that. Come into my office... my secretary took a sick day."
She opened her office door and offered them both seats. Then she sat behind the desk. The office was very neatly decorated. A not-so-new computer stood on the desk, and a picture of a young boy wearing carrying a hockey stick. She put on a pair of reading glasses and peered at them.
"So, which property did you say it was? You looking to sell or buy it?"

Blake slides a chair back for Anna, and then takes a seat himself.
"Well, we would like to look into this property... it's an old decommissioned library."
Blake slides the paper across the desk, with the address for the library on it.

Anna sat down in the chair and looked from Blake to the Realtor, not saying anything for now. Let the 'adults' do the talking.

She sighed as he specified the place.
"You know, you're not the first one to come asking about that place. Only last week a young man came in asking about it... I'm sorry, I told him, it's not for sale."[/color]

Blake is not surprised that others have inquired about the property... The Black Spirals would have been sniffing around, if they knew where it was...
But why not for sale? obviously its a money sink do to taxes, and not in use...
"Interesting, If I may ask, is the property privately owned?"
Blake watches her mannerisms, to see if she starts to fidget, sweat, does her sent change?? something is odd here... and Blake likes a puzzle.

"Ahh, yes. That I can check."
She started clicking away on the computer for a while. Apart from the fact that she seems to be in a hurry, there's nothing really strange about her that Blake can pick out. After a while, a frown starts to form on her face.
"Yes, it is... and the owner seems to have requested that this information not be given out to any who ask... well that is odd..."
The frown becomes more pronounced. Apparently this wasn't a common thing.
