[h2][center][color=green]Mantis[/color] - Strip Mall[/center][/h2] [center][@Banana][@solokolos][@Xandrya][/center] When the woman mentioned using, "..her abilities.." Mantis smirked under his mask. [i][color=green]"Now we're talking! Should I pull out the ring now or save it for later?"[/color][/i] He joked to himself. His mind was made up. He would try and recruit this woman. That's when she started moving closer to him after mentioning her transfer powers. He noticed her demeanor to have changed from defensive into being slightly aggressive. Then Farce spoke up trying to lighten the mood as well as provide his alibi. He needed good teammates like her in order to smooth things over. She did a great job when she wasn't getting between his weapons and targets. Mantis slowly raised the weapon as she approached and calmly stated, [color=green]"Don't move any further. I'm not responsible for any of this mess. If I was, do you really think I'd be trying to calm you down?"[/color] Then he implanted the thought into her, [i][color=green]"He could have shot me without another word."[/color][/i] [color=green]"I and my partner here also use abilities."[/color] Mantis began to fill the air with feelings of tranquility and peace. On a tense, violent night like this, it was bizarre to feel like you were taking a nice warm shower.
