Justin couldn't help but inwardly cringe when Carson, mentioned going to see his family. From the moment he had been told leaving was death, Justin had realized that the same could probably be said for anyone they tried to contact, or at leas that was the way it always was in books and shows. In fact he had personally avoided such a question for fear of such answer as the one that Delta replied with. It was official Justin didn't know what to do at this point. Sure he had never had an extremely close relationship with his parents, but still the possibility that they were dead, just all of sudden, was more than heart wrenching, it crushed him. He could feel as his mind gave way, sure his walls remained, the mask upon his face didn't falter, it sat rigid and cold. Normally at such a point he would drown himself with music, cease to breath air and instead replace the oxygen in his blood with the beat of the music, yet now he had nothing. Absolutely, nothing. Here he sat in a room with strangers floating nearby, and all his ties to his normal life were severed, all because he had some dinky little power. God, what was he going to do now? Luckily he was spared somewhat from his thoughts as his eyes finally caught attention of the newcomer stretching in the corner of his vision. Justin let his eyes drift over the guy, he took note of his tired appearance but gave no effort to the name. Frankly Justin was returning to his previous theory, that these people were possibly the ones to be wary of, perhaps they would be the ones to deal with his family if he even thought about leaving. In fact, it was possible his cooperation would be the only thing to keep his family alive, so for now he would sit back and just watch for weaknesses, no matter how things panned out they wouldn't be bad things to know. Unfortunately, he couldn't attempt to analyze the new guy, before a newer person burst in. She burst in with an exuberant amount of energy, or at least more than he could take at the moment. Her voice was too loud and her actions too eager for his taste. Though he did agree with her welcoming. Rejects, try they were all at the very least rejects, maybe social pariah fit better though, after all from what he had come to realize so far through this day was that the presence of powers did little more than cause problems, for them, for everyone, even if the people didn't realize. It did appear though that Justin would not have to deal with her energy for long. In an instant Delta was behind her his fingers in the shape of gun, clearly showing how easily she would fall to the enemy should she be allowed to fight like she wished. Delta immediately began to talk. It was clear he was intent on conveying just how dangerous truly was. He appeared to hold on to no false illusions about their abilities, Delta was quite aware of their inability and was quite apparently going to let them no of their lack of sufficient power, even his own. As the letter dubbed man talked of Phi's handiwork with Epsilon and displayed his own wound, Justin couldn't help but wonder what powers this other meta possessed. It was however apparently quite deadly. It was about this time another girl slipped into the room. There were many more of this guys than Justin originally assumed. This one was optimistic sounding, but not nearly as exuberant, and het words made her seem at the very least consider to this other girl, the one with the short colored hair, much smarter, or at least much less brash. When she spoke again to introduce herself Justin acknowledged with a small head nod. He still wasn't completely settled, nor did he trust them, yet, and was quite sure for now it would probably be best to keep quiet. He definitely believed that the majority of them probably had a power far greater than his, from he had noticed his was almost completely useless. The first meta girl he met spoke, Sayuri if he was correct. When she spoke Justin wasn't sure whether her words were meant to be a joke or not, and now he had a name for all the people in the room, even if he was a tad hazy on them. In reality he didn't truly care, but it would make interacting easier. As they all conversed Justin took note of a new guy along the wall. Seriously!? How many were there? Justin just watched on as all the others talked, the newer guy was rather straightforward, maybe a little brutish or critical, with Carson as they spoke. It was an attribute he made sure to document, for the most part it was a good thing, the guy didn't beat around the bush. As he was letting his eyes rove over all the individuals in the room, he noticed the shadows shift unnaturally. Before he could really allow it to register though a figure enshrouded in the very same shadows materialized. Then, some of the shadows wrapped themselves around the one who had previously been victim to Delta's demonstration. This figure, most assuredly Epsilon, had just managed to sequester Justin's full attention in such small actions. Again he opted to watch as the powerful meta before him began his speech. He watched on somewhat amused as Epsilon invited them to try to defeat him and Delta, even more so when not a single of those who had so boldly being talking of fighting another meta, supposedly even more powerful than these two. When Carson got to his point on Phi Justin made sure to pay close attention. Carson had after all just had a recent altercation with him, and as far as Justin knew all the others, except Delta and Epsilon, had never even encountered the man of who they spoke. At the end of the speech, he couldn't help feel a rather sentiment to the one expressed. Sighing slightly Justin decided now may be the right time to speak. [color=skyblue]"Personally I agree with Delta, Epsilon, and this guy. If what I have heard in the short time I've been here is to be believed none of you stand a chance. Clearly on some level you have to agree otherwise you'd trust in yourselves to at least attempt to take on one of these two, but yet no one is. As far as all things go, I'm a rather confident person, but I'm also no fool. I know a smart bet when I see one, and I would not bet on you lot at the moment no matter what the payout odds would be. I don't do failed bets."[/color]
