[center][h3][color=39b54a]Liam[/color][/h3][/center] Liam failed to notice the antics of those within the cafe, falling silent as he passed by the figure now blocking the doorway. He caught a glance of the man who had been near the center a moment before, but merely gave him a nod before sitting down at a table not far from the rough looking male. Onward the stranger stood, merely looking over the tenants of in silence as a grin slowly formed upon his lips. After a few moments, another man walked through the door to enter the establishment, but was stopped short as the stranger placed a hand on his chest and flashed something beneath his duster that Liam couldn't quiet make out. It didn't take long to figure out it was good as the newcomer immediately rounded and yanked open the door before sprinting off down the street. "[color=39b54a]Hey![/color]" Liam shouted, pushing back his chair as he attempted to stand up, but the older man reacted faster. In a blink of an eye, an odd shotgun was produced from his jacket and aimed in Liam's direction. Before the fear could settle into the young man, the assailant fired off a round that echoed throughout the smaller establishment in a flurry of flame and shrapnel. The firey burst collided with Liam as it sent him flaying back over his chair and collapsing onto the floor with a heavy thud. The assailant cleared his throat as the echoing boom began to dull, looking back to the crowd with gun still in hand, "Ladies and gentlemen, I wouldn't play the hero here. Just sit quietly and listen, and no one else will wind up with a bullet hole in their chest." He began to walk forward towards the others within the store before pausing and looking to Liam. Writhing in pain, Liam could be seen clutching his chest and attempting to catch his breath though his eyes remained closed. The most notable fact was there was no puncture wound on the male, rather just charred clothing and burnt flesh that seemed to slowly regenerating before everyone's eyes. "Well, that's one of my questions answered," The man said, taking a heavy draw from his cigar as he faced forward once more, "Any more 'special' individuals that want to step forward? It'll make all our days a little easier." With this, he fell silent, his gaze focused on those before him once more as he kept his shotgun aloft. The others in the room began to panic, falling back to the walls or hiding beneath their tables. A few of them attempted to dig out there phones in a rush, though stopping quickly as the man cocked his gun once more. Now the room was cloaked in an unsettling noise of terrified whispers, accompanied by very wary glances around the room. "I don't have all day, and I'm not in the mood for heroes. Step forward, and I might have a job offer for ya," Once again, the man took a heavy drag from his cigar, blowing out the plume as his eyes grew a bit more stern, "Don't be a bunch of damn cowards!" Any attempt to leave the room would be met with the man barring your path, and any attempt to approach Liam is met with a warning shot. [hr] [center][h3]Megan[/h3][/center] As Garret stepped off the bus, he was greeted by the sound of silence only subtly disturbed by the cawing of crows located all around him on trees and street lights. As he called out to Megan, his voice could be heard echoing down a nearby alleyway. After a moment, he could begin to hear a feminine chuckle resounding over the area. "Oh, Mister Garret! It's so good to see you once again," the tone of this voice was completely different than the voice heard before. It was the same in tone, but laced with a heavy- almost lustful malice, "I kept counting the seconds until you'd come after us. Did you solve the joke yet?" She giggled, her form still hidden somewhere nearby. However, a slow echoing of footsteps resounded behind Garret. Turning, he was greeted with the image of a man stepping forward towards him, dressed in a full suit and tie. His hair was peppered with grey, his face clean shaven and unmarred. He made his way calmly over to Garret, flashing a wide smile. "Ah, Garret! So good to see you. Hopefully there is no ill will against my little girl," With this, a form slowly began to appear at his side, dressed in a jester like attire with two daggers in hand and a twisted smile upon her lips. Her eyes were focused on Garret as the giggling could be heard coming from her direction. "Now, about our little visit here," The man spoke once more, his smile fading only slight as he motioned with his head to the building now behind Garret, "Merely stick close to the entrance and do not allow anyone else to enter. You're free to do what you must to accomplish this, just don't be too obvious about it." With this, the man now made his way past Garrett towards the building. It was then that Garret would notice Megan wasn't with him, her form now nowhere to be seen. "I'll be waiting for your answer," A female seemed to whisper in his ear, with no speaker to be seen.
