Once outside Jack silently, but graciously accepted a mint from Taric. The thick fisted cop didn't need to smell his own breath to know that it was putrid. Ignoring that he'd just downed a bottle of whiskey and a greasy BLT, he had been neglecting his oral hygiene long before he'd gotten the letter. Chances were that Shadow, who ate raw meat and regularly licked himself, had fresher breath then Jack did. He'd already shown up late to the last mission looking like a drunk, Jack figured the last thing he needed was to show up on time [i]smelling [/i]like a drunk. As he chewed the mint Jack did his best to lead the mismatched group through the streets of Platform City. Everything was still very unfamiliar to him. The sights, sounds, and, and residents still seemed too exotic and alien to fully grasp. However he was used to large difficult to navigate cities and unlike Grant City, where everything largely looked the same, Platform City had a lot of striking landmarks and recognizable buildings by comparison. It wasn't long before he was making his way up the steps to Tetris Castle. Before he could fully ascend the staircase his police walkie talkie crackled to life. [color=green][i]"I need everyone to report to the War Room on the 30th floor (I’m going to add the war room to it) pronto. There’s a mission brief for our green horns. I want complete accountability of every squad!"[/i][/color] [color=708090]"Wow, for once I managed to be on time for something. Least I won't have to ask where to go to report in now."[/color] Jack muttered to himself, glancing skywards in an attempt to see the top of the massive castle that stretched out before him. Quickly giving up due to the strain on his neck the hard boiled cop reached the top of the stairs. A sense of relief washed over him as he saw there was no signs of a continuing ceremony. [color=708090][i]"Thank god that funeral is over. Last thing I need is a reminder that people die needlessly even here."[/i][/color] Jack thought, picking up the pace towards the castle entrance in an effort to quell any thoughts of the past. Once inside he fumbled for directions until finally making it to the 30th floor and slipping into the War Room. Jack stood silently and listened to Guile speak. It was tempting to volunteer for the mission, if only to make up for his previous absence. However the setup seemed a bit over his head. Plus the idea of going to some land of smiling clouds, rainbows, and other cutesy stuff didn't seem all that appealing to the boozed up former cop. Catching [color=yellow]Shantae's[/color] gaze Jack simply shrugged his thick shoulders. [color=708090][i]"We should stay out of this. There will probably be another mission."[/i] [/color] Jack mouthed silently to the pint sized genie as Shadow simply sat and wagged his tail. Around the room there was a bizarre assortment of people, more so then even the bar. A child, a talking fox, a military man with arms practically bulging with muscle, and countless others. Some seemed more experienced then others and those seemed to be the ones who began to give advice. Talk of immunization against a virus was both worrying and comforting. Though since he wasn't going to the land of sunshine and rainbows it seemed irrelevant at the moment. [color=708090]"Find someone who compliments my fighting style, huh?"[/color] Jack muttered to himself and looked around the war room as mission goers began to clear out. Taric had already seemed to imply he was willing to back Jack up, but everyone else was still a mystery to him. [color=708090]"Hey, anyone not going to uh-'Dreamland' why don't we have a quick Powwow to get to know each other. I'm Jack Slate, this is Shadow."[/color] Jack gestured to the large, blue eyed, black and white furred beast next to him. The dog quietly barred it's teeth as it's name was mentioned and it's cold bestial eyes swept through the room and it's occupants. [color=708090]"I have a gun, I can punch, and I like to think I can take a punch or two. Nothing fancy, nothing crazy, just good old fashioned violence."[/color]
