'besides me as your patsy for whatever you want?' *looks about, ever alert and more animalistic at first appearance. 'look, sorry .. its kinda hard to accept anything people tell me now ... i thought i had a mark and easy cash, now? .. i got an trouble magnet on me .. you sure you wanna offer?' *body still 9/10's protected from any possible shots that might come out [tag - kodiak] [[ooc - i almost put something else down and had tally about to say something .. - oops ..  ]] |

" It's very simple." Kodiak replied, still standing where she'd stopped. " You're up to your eyeballs in trouble here and I can help. Along with some friends, we're trying to help the city whether they want it or not. If you'll trust me, I'll take you back to meet the others and we'll figure out how to get the blame off of you and find out who was behind it. and since you were there, you can help us fill in the blanks and tell me what it was Troll said so we can deal with him too. "
" But it's up to you." She added. " If you say no, I'll walk away right now and you can deal with this mess your own way."
[Silverfire]
" I don't know yet." Tyler replied as he made his way through traffic before pulling into a parking garage. " But I do know that whoever is calling the shots has alot of pull, both here in the city and beyond, from Washington on down. I tried to get some help out of the agency and they blew me off, next thing I know there's a bulletin advising not to make contact with me and keep me away from all sensitive data. I'm telling you, something stinks around here."
He pulled the Firebird into a spot on the third level and got out of the car. Looking acrossed the roof, he grinned as he leaned on it for a moment. " Just think, if you'd retired like all the other old farts, you wouldn't be in this mess ."

*William listens to it all* "Well, I still have my life in another country, you know, the where I am a citizen of. But, we'll see... haven't gone rogue in a decade. Don't think my handler's even seen it happen in his lifetime. And... as to retirement there's a special clause that says I'm not to be forced to be retired - or allowed, I suppose - for another century. You know, when I'm actually an old fart like you guys... but then... I do go rogue every decade or so." *and he shrugs*
"So, why are we here, exactly? I shouldn't have a bounty on me already."
*as he watches Tyler, William idly wonders about how equipped the RCMP would be to deal with him... or those insipid MPs... not that he's listened to one since 19...what was it? 67? 68?*

*then looks up 'got it? ,, i dont trust easy .. and now i dont got a reason to trust any

Tyler leads William to an elevator. Once inside, it goes up to the office building above. Tyler smirked. It stopped on the third floor." It's not the best place to operate out of, but it does the trick. You can get cleaned up and I'll explain the rest when Ashley and Trevor get back. And there's a secure line in that office so you can call home. " Tyler grinned as he started towards another office. " Mommy must be worried about you." As the door closed, he could be overheard talking to a woman about an update.
[Sparks]
" If it makes you feel any better, I'm not happy about this either." Kodiak replied. " You owe me a motor job. But come on then, the car's waiting." She turned and led the way to a waiting Miata convertible. Once inside, she slipped on a pair of sunglasses and started the car. " By the way, my name's Ashley. And don't worry, most of us have been in as much trouble as you."
After a quick, and quiet trip acrossed town, she pulled the car into an underground garage and parked the car. Ashley led Sparks to an elevator and took it up to the third floor.
[Both]
As the elevator door opens, William can see out the open door two familiar faces in the hallway. Ashley points towards the room he is in. " You can clean up in there, I gotta check in and tell the boss I brought a stray home. " she grinned and went in through the door Tyler had gone in earlier.

*William turns, with a lock of his long hair perilously close to being cut like its compatriots, to see Maria and Kodiak walk in. One silver eyebrow rises above his cracked eyes in question, but shrugs it off, continuing to cut.* "Well, they wouldn't let youo get away either, huh? Well... I suppose it beats SCRET, right now. *He says, taking the last long lock, and putting it in a garbage bag. The hair is now fairly short, if a bit uneven* "You should have seen... I spent a year in the war actually teaching myself to do this."

'oh just great .. could my day get any worse right now? .. *leans against a wall and waits until she can get 'cleaned up ' a bit more
*brushes the pants and then removes the jacket to shake out, revealing that the entire fleshy parts of her skin are jet black. then removes the bap to shake out the hair and ruffle it free of webs and dust
'whatever fire man .. they offering me protection .. and i didn't wanna keep running from the bangers out there ..
*then tucks the shirt back in and slips back into the jacket and picks up the skates once again

*William steps out her way, having bathed at the hotel before leaving.* "Well, I'm not quite sure what I need right now." *He says pensively* "He looks at the secure line. Well... except to make a phone call. Not that it'll do any good. The only difference in treatment back home would be that I wouldn't be in handcuffs when they ask me about my day back home." *He proceeds to pull out looser clothing.* "Damn, I left that hero-suit they made me at the barracks. Gotta look like the comics. PR and all. Give me loose pants and a good shirt anyday." *William looks up from what he was saying, looks around the room, and realises about how blind he was to the way things have become, realising that maybe, just maybe, Tyler was right, and he should have retired, bought that island he always wanted in Nunavut. Carve out a nice simple life away from all this.*
*He sits on a chair, his 80 years truly showing for the first time since Maria met him.* "It's been a long time for me, kid. I've ben alive longer than the atom bomb." *He chuckles at the annoyance of 60 years of change.*

*He meets her look with his.* "My excuse? Well, I suppose I have a name to clear. Two, actually: yours and mine." *he shrugs, na dlooks again at the phone.* "I suppose I should make that call." *And he proceeds to dial his handler direct* "Hey, it's me." *He says when the phone picks up and he hears his voice.* "I'm gonna have to stick aroud for a while. There's something wrong with the folks here, some mob thing. SCRET's worked over too..."

*sits there and idly rolls the skates back and forth with the hands and then starts to examine them for flaws after that big burst of speed she used earlier.
'stressed, no cracks this time .. thats good the brekes need replacing again .. hmmm .. *then spins the wheels one by one and checks the alignment* 'oh even better .. just need new brakes this time .. thats cool
*then looks up as William is nattering on the phone and wonders to herself wonder what his story is? not that i really care. jeez .. i'm getting nasty lately, better cool it since i'm here and have no idea who these people are
'didn't expect to see you again. thought you bailed and weren't gonna show up again' *once he's off the phone*

"Didn't expect to be seen either." *William answers* "Turns out I can't blend in as much as I'ld hope." *He looks around the space, and then back to Maria, leaning in to talk to her* "You can think about me what you want, I've had worse said against me. And you only need to trust me as far as you can throw me. But one thing I will tell you, and I want you to trust it and believe it, is that this city is going to hell in a handbasket, and you are to keep your wits about you at all times. And, the next time a mysterious phone rings, don't answer it." *He finishes with a smirk.*

'oh .. like thats a given, duh ... *sets the skate on the ground beside her and then looks at william again
'you gotta think i was born yesterday or something. i may be young but when i changed i split from home and never looked back. just raided the drinking money dad had and the 'vacation' money his lady had and left in the night. that was about 2 years ago, and i've survived on my own since then.
'i know they never reported me missing, claimed i ran off with a boy and wrote me off

"Oh to be young again." *Says William, with only the slightest hint of yearning, and he takes a deep breath* "Well, it's going to be a lot dangerous. Because the people that didn't care about you? Besides your parents, maybe. All these people, police, SCRET, who knows who else... they'll all be hunting you, as an assassin, instead of just treating you like a street kid."
*He leans back* "But this, I'm sure, you already knew."

" You always did know how to sugar coat things, old timer." Tyler said as he entered the room. " I brought you here because I thought you could help, not so you could try to scare the snot out of my other guests." He pulled the door shut behind him, but the heated arguement of two women could be heard, one of them Ashley/Kodiak. The other was unfamiliar. Tyler smirked as he pulled the door closed. " Ashley and Felecia have a slight difference of opinion about how we can help each other."
