[b]Chad Master Funk[/b]

“Wake up, shōniaisha!” is what Chad woke up to along with a stinging sensation on his cheek. "Wha-?" Chad muttered opening his eyes. With a confused expression on his face Chad observed his surrounding. To his left he found James doing pretty well with the Kitsune he saw upstairs at the bar earlier. He realized the room was a bit strange judging from the plants and foliage. He looked down to find himself naked in a tub, which caused him to startle. "How did I get here?" Chad thought. "Why am I naked? Where are my things? Why is James BFF with that Kitsune?... Why does my face hurt?" And with that last thought Chad's chin was turned forcefully to face the woman that he kissed before passing out... and made her very upset.

“Why are you here, shōniasha?!” The young Kitsune demanded angrily from Chad.
"Oh... that's why" Chad thought. With that, the Kitsune slapped Chad again making him yelp in a feminine high pitched voice.
“Answer me!” She was growing impatient but a soothing voice came from the left and said “He’s not going to answer you if you keep beating on him, daughter.”

"Yeah what she said!" Chad exclaimed. "First of all, that was uncalled for and really hurts." Chad continued. "You know, you look cute when you are angry." Chad smiles flirtatiously. "I understand that you maybe upset, but remember you attacked us first. When you knocked me out I thought I was going to die, which is why I tried to 'grab' onto my life as much as I could." Chad began to chuckle at his own joke reminding the Kitsune of what he did before passing out "Get it? 'GRAB' onto life, huh? Its funny right?" Chad looked up at the most likely unamused Kitsune. "You have to admit you must have liked it a little... no?... ok, anyway to answer your question," Chad clears his throat, "I came here looking for-" Chad pauses and starts over, "Better yet, for all of this to make sense, I will start from the beginning". Chad clears his throat again in an exaggerated manner. "My name is Chad Master Funk, or just Chad, and as you could probably tell I am not from around here. In fact, I am from the future and I landed in this world by accident, but that's not important now. During the short time I have spent here, I have met a demigod named Fitz, and during our battle with the flesh golem outside the Inn, (which no doubt you must have noticed all the commotion), Fitz somehow got separated from his body and his dark half took over and he now threatens to throw the universe into chaos and destruction." Chad looks to the Kitsune and the two others on the left. "Although I am from the future, my weapons are not enough to fight him. I am going to need to upgrade my equipment, they only gave me the basic stuff to go on this mission. So I am trying to assemble a team of super powered heroes to stop Fitz before it is too late. I originally came here looking for a powerful super-human named Missile, but honestly I am considering giving up on her..." With a pause Chad looks up to the young kitsune. "That's my story and if you have any more questions, I will answer them after you give my clothes and equipment back". he smiles.

[b] Alec Drop Bass [/b]

Alec heard a cold smooth voice behind him, “Ah, Alec Drop Bass. I was wondering when I would find you…”. Alec turned his head to find a dark figure wearing a crows mask. “Tell me, Alec, do you feel dead?”

For some reason Alec was not alarmed. He did not try to run, he was not afraid, yet he did not want to fight. His body was numb from the cold. He looked back at the figure and let out a weak chuckle. Alec was still partially delusional due to blood loss. He didn't know what he was laughing at. Was it at the Crow? Did he find his question funny? Or was he, once again, laughing at himself for being reduced to such a state?
"Quite honestly, I don't know how to answer that question." Alec responded in a low voice. "What is death suppose to feel like?... Are you the reaper?" Alec looked away from the figure and stared into space. "I feel like if I were to answer your question in any way, you would probably kill me... No matter, I will answer your question... No, I don't feel dead. Not yet." With that, Alec waits for the Crow's response...
