The two continued to stand around, waiting. The man and the woman made idle conversation, and talked about various things, including that of what was going on at home at the Sanctuary, who to take bets on who's gonna show up to the meeting, as well as other stuff like that. However, Amado looked towards the city again.
"I see a few signatures... one of of them seems to have a different energy around it... almost as if it was alien..." He whispered, putting his hands along his waist as Lisa stepped forward a little. Once Nyt came around the containers and walked towards them, Lisa smiled.
One Nyt stepped up to them, Lisa nodded. "Of course, this is where we meet." She said with a smile, holding out her hand to shake. "I'm Lisa Martinez, you must be... uhh... Nit... right? Did I pronounce your name right?" She asked. "Oh... we pronounced it wrong. We have a slight idea of who you are but we'll figure it all out in the meantime. And as for signing papers, not yet. I'm waiting until everyone gets here."
Once Jackson made is presence aware to all three of them, Lisa and Amado looked up. "Yeah... I was about to warn you of this... paranormal presence..." Amado said softly, looking up at Jackson.
Lisa gave a soft grin. "Sup? You're... uhm... Jackson, right? Correct me if I'm wrong." She said with a soft smile. "Come on down and join us." Almost immediately after, she just saw a figure fly right over Jackson and land right behind them all, by the helicopter, revealing himself to be Mercury. Both Amado and Lisa turned, to which they both applauded. "Hey... not bad. I'd give that a solid nine. A+, that's for damn sure." Lisa said with a soft chuckle. "Judging by your dossier info... you're... uhm... Mercury, right? I'm Lisa and this is Amado, it's a pleasure to meet you." She said with a smile.
Amado finished applauding at Mercury's showmanship, smiling. He was clearly impressed. He looked to Lisa. "I think we should save the introductions until they all arrive. Those that arrive on time, that is." Amado suggested.
"Yeah, good idea... those mofo's are showing up faster than I can even say-" When she heard Kores speak, she immediately turned to him as he walked down towards them. "...antidisestablishmentarianism." She smiled. "Hey, welcome. No trickery here, just stand over here above this massive target." She joked, pointing towards an empty space nearby. "Just kidding. Just hang on for a few, I'm gonna wait for the others to arrive." She said.
Hearing two feet land on the ground nearby, she immediately looked to see Marcus tucking his hands within his jacket. "It's cool... you're a few minutes late, so it's not that big of a deal." Lisa said. "Go ahead and meet the others while we wait for the rest to arrive."
Amado turned around, seeing some strange energy signatures before looking straight at Light. Amado opened his eyes wide, and reacted a little bit like Sam Neill did in Jurassic Park. "It's... it's... it's the fuckin' Cartoon..." Amado said, a little freaked out, pointing at Light.
Lisa turned around. "Hm? Amado you better not be-" She stopped herself mid-sentence, looking at Light. "... joking... uhm..." Lisa gulped. "Uhm... hi? Welcome to the group... please... forgive me and Amado, we... aren't used to... seeing beings such as yourself." She said, as politely as she could. "Yes, I'm Lisa, I sent the letter. I honestly didn't think you were real!" She chuckled nervously. "Please, join us! Feel free to... get to know each other and stuff..." She said softly, looking to Amado, to which Amado nodded, indicating that he's seeing all of this too. Lisa turned back towards light and gulped. "Okay! Now..."
As Lisa turned uncomfortably away from the cartoon, her glance rested upon Fenrir, who exited dramatically from the shadows and into the orange sodium-vapor light, revealing himself. Once he walked up to the group, not saying a word, both Amado and Lisa wafted the smell away from their noses. "Woah... quite a dramatic entrance there. I assume you're... Vasil? Codenamed... uhm... Fenrir?" She asked. "In your dossier it said that you lived alone and in a remote location... I really appreciate you coming this far to my summons. Trust me, it's well worth the trouble." She said with a smile before looking around for anyone else.
Hearing Alexandra speak right beside them, and smelling fish, Lisa looked over to her and smiled. "Oh, hey Alexandra! Thanks for coming by, I appreciate it." She said. "I'll debrief you all on what's going on in just a few, I'm waiting for the others to arrive." She explained. "Go ahead, feel free to get to know the others!"
Once Jennifer arrived, Amado patted Lisa on the shoulder and gestured to her. Lisa turned around and listened to what Jennifer had to say. Lisa smiled, giggling a little. "Awh, Jenny! That was adorable. C'mere!" She said with a smile, gesturing for Jenny to come over. "I'm not one for school presentations but that's pretty cute. I'll explain what's going on here in a few. I'm Lisa, by the way." She said with a soft smile.
Amado looked to Jenny. "Hey chica, mind if I have a slice?" He asked with a soft smile. "Could use some pizza after seeing a damn cartoon..." He said. "I've seen plenty through the Hololens but I still gotta get used to this!"
Turning to another voice, she nodded to Edwina. "Nice to meet you, Lucy." She said with a smile, nodding to her. "You're... Edwina, right? Yeah... I'll explain everything in a few. Feel free to intermingle with everyone." She said with a smile.
Amado tapped Lisa on the shoulder. Lisa looked to him. "What's going on?" She asked. "Lots of energy signatures... they all look the same." Lisa nodded. "Must be the duplicator guy then." She said before turning to Spencer... or his... duplicate? She smiled to one of his duplicates, shaking his hand. "Hey, I'm Lisa Martinez!" Amado did something similar.
"Man this is so much weirder than working with the Original Heroes..." Amado muttered to himself.
After all was said and done, Lisa looked to everyone. "Alright everyone, quiet down!" She said. "That appears that's everyone who's gonna show up to the party..." She said softly. "... unless there's people who are late..." She thought. "Oh well, I'll stick around for another half hour or so before getting the bird in the air, so yeah." She looked to the others again. "Alright everyone, I'm gonna explain to you why you're all here, and why I summoned you. My name is Lisa Martinez, and this here is Amado Cortez. I called you all here because we are all special in some way. We all have this... odd part of us that seperates us from other human beings. It can be a gift, it can be a curse... whatever it may be, it's something that makes you incredibly unique. But don't worry, it's not a bad thing. I'm like that too, and so is Amado." She said with a smile.
Right then, a heavy bassy *BOOOMMMMM* sounded, and Lisa's irises went from dark brown to bright white, and while lifting her hand gently, a nearby barrel floated upwards. And with the flick of her wrist, the barrel flew and went careening into the ocean. Lisa smirked. "I have Psychokinesis. Amado here can detect energy signatures of any kind, and can tell who's who and what's what as a result." She explained. "What I'm offering you here tonight is a deal no one can resist. Amado and I are part of a team called the Powerbound Alliance, and we're a team of supernaturals that perform a variety of missions all around the globe. In exchange for your services, you will be living with us at the Powerbound Sanctuary, where you will living with the rest of the Powerbound Alliance. There, you can have all of the food, drink, stuff, all of that, to your heart's content. And if you guys want anything, whether it would be a car, a radio, a computer, whatever, we can get you hooked up." She said. "We have a shit ton of resources, and access to safehouses and connections all across the globe. We operate in secret, and in the shadows. The sanctuary is located up in the Colombian Mountains, near a small town called Barichura. The official language there is Spanish so you guys might have to learn it once you come with us." She said with a soft chuckle. "But... in exchange for all of that, you're gonna have to work for us in some form or another, and you guys are going to have to swear a vow of secrecy, and follow all of our rules. Most of it is common sense shit, shit like no hurting or killing innocent people, our allies and other Powerbound Members... violating direct orders from the Administration (me and a few other people you'll meet).... other stuff like that." She explained. "This group was founded after World War II after some of the Original Heroes lived through the horrors that the Nazis committed, though we haven't taken any major action since the Islamic State showed up. Ever since then, we've been undertaking dangerous missions of all kinds, and we need new heroes, such as yourselves, to help us accomplish these goals. Remember, this shit's really dangerous, and after you step onboard that helicopter, there is no turning back." Lisa explained, gesturing to the helicopter behind her.
"So, how many of you will call yourselves proud members of the Powerbound Alliance?" Lisa asked with a smirk, looking to everyone.
