[h2][color=00aeef][b]Marrie Knight[/b][/color][/h2] Marrie had spent the past few weeks after the Diver incident mostly recovering, and reassuring her mother over texts and calls that she had survived with little problem. Not exactly the truth, she knew, but making her worry even more wouldn't be a good idea. Luckily, her second-floor apartment wasn't horribly damaged from the incident, so she could show video of it to "prove" that things were relatively okay. There were even a few government subsidies for rent, so she would have to thank G.E.M.I.N.I. for that. As she prepared to head out for the newest job from Shimr, she couldn't help but wonder how Stacy and the others from Maverick Alternative were handling the rising tensions. Once she'd grabbed her things, including her new pistol she had invested in after quite a lot of thought, she went outside to the alleyway behind the building and transformed. A quick glance over her things to make sure she didn't forget any of it, and she was on her new bike and headed to the Micromart. When she arrived, Marrie noticed another girl there, one who was wearing a mask. So she got off her bicycle and spoke up to her, pulling out her phone with Shimr loaded. [color=00aeef]"Hey, what are you doing here? Here for some water or are you just wandering?"[/color] Sure it wasn't the [i]most[/i] subtle way to announce her status as a Freelancer, but it was better than flat-out saying it. Marrie paused a moment after her question. She was getting a terrible feeling of deja vu. Memories of her first job in Pax sprung to mind, the battle with the Monkeys and the Bees, those horrible, horrible memories. She was glad she had been able to compartmentalize what had happened that day, but times like these still brought a terrible feeling to her mind. Marrie shuddered, both from her memories and anxiety. Hopefully this wouldn't turn out like that had.
