[Center][h2]Heartless- The Jack's Headquarters[/h2][/center] Tap. Tap. Tap. He tapped his fingers on the counter as he awaited his new team. Tap. Tap. Tap. Sip. He had taken off his helmet for a second as he had a drink of root beer, his soft drink of choice. He was never one for alcohol, dulled the mind and senses for momentary pleasure. If he was gonna make stupid decisions he would make those decisions uninhibited. He glanced over at his boss, interesting man to say the least. A practically unspoken signal passed between the two if them. Time to meet his new co-workers. He put on his helmet and touched a certain area on the back of the helmet. After sliding down his visor the areas where his eyes were supposed to be began to glow yellow, while leaving his own vision unobstructed. Neat piece of work, definitely worth the money he paid for it. The door opened and an interesting set of people walked in. You had a young girl, little taller than him annoyingly, a taller gentleman dressed in full military clothing, Ryan tensed up on instinct even though he knew that was a member of the team, a fancy boy dressed in fancy clothes, Ryan immediately felt a little disgusted by the extravagance of it, and to top it all off a guy in a poncho and sombrero. There was an actual cowboy on the team, he honestly thought the Broker was joking. There was also a dude who was talking a lot, Ryan smiled at that. Pretty boy was annoyed which automatically put Ryan in a good mood. The girl, Sophia, waved to him slightly and he smiled and waved back. Not that she could see the smile behind the helmet, covering his whole face and stuff. Pretty boy, Chatterbox, straight up ignored him which was a little irritating. The Broker mentioned how Lovecraft was arrested, terrible stuff. Thankfully that opened up a slot for Ryan quite neatly. The Broker introduced Ryan as am understudy which was a strange term to use but he would roll with it nonetheless. Headhunter was mumbling something under his breath, but Ryan couldn't quite hear it over the sound of Gamble just talking and talking and talking. It was actually starting to get on his nerves a bit. [Color=darkgray]"Alright buddy, if you don't shut up in the next ten seconds I'm gonna punch you really hard."[/color] He said as he got out of his chair and cracked his knuckles. Just after he said this Headhunter decided to speak up and ask what his cape name was. [Color=darkgray]"Ah, my bad guys. Totally forgot to introduce myself, so rude of me. The name is Heartless, it's a reference to a game on the other Earth. And I am a living breathing shadow."[/color]
