Speed Boost has now an AoE effect around the target.
You can visit Null the Gull (a bird npc, at Pocket D, on top of a truck near the vault) he can make you accept or deny speed altering buffs from other players

Hollows missions start at David Wincott you can use "Find Contact" button or just go and visit him, if you re Lv 5-10.
Wincott->Flux->Julius->Talshak , one of them may give you Meg but she is not part of the Hollows story, she gives you repeatable missions.
