Hot Rod laughed really hard at Volt's reply and responded, "No, no I was just curious and there's no need to be so serious, it's like a club in here, relax and have fun."

He then turned to look at Sonja when she said that she recognized him and introduced herself. He shook her hand in a glad way and said, "It is nice to meet you Sonja, As you already know my hero identity is Hot Rod, my real name is Ryker Charleston. I've heard about you Miss Simpson, is it true that you draw your power from the magic of St Louis and it is dependent on the people believing in you?"

Ryker was glad that he was able to start up a conversation with someone who seemed more outgoing than the Scotsman. If they were going to be part of a team then proper communication would be very helpful in developing teamwork. He then ordered himself a beer and was thirsty for anything good. Once the beer came he really enjoyed the flavor and knew almost instantly that it was good beer.
