Realistic or Modern Deception and Perception

[Hibiscus]

"If Joel is the one who passed me this note and went into the bar then yes." Hunter held her hand tight, "He just threatened me and my friends, and also implied I had something he wanted. Natalie I don't know if that's you or not, but I'm not taking any chances." He saw Virgil, and prompted his response, "Yes, apparently a man named Joel. He is a well known Syndicate member." He gave Virgil the paper, "He is trying to play with us, he wants a deal in that bar. Feitan should be on the lookout, he shouldn't get anywhere near us."

 

[Four The Magician]

Feitan peered to his phone reading the message before wiping all messages in his phone and shoving it into his leather satchel before swiftly making his way to a far away roof top where he could see the bar. Without hesitation Feitan whipped open his medium sized bag, pulling out several pieces of his rifle, quickly, without wasting any time he began to put his gun together, the way he had modified it was to keep it compact so he can put it together with quick time. Feitan pulled out a small fold-able chair like object to lean on for long periods of time, setting it up on the ledge of the building along with his rifle, Feitan leaned his rifles bi-pod onto the edge as he attached his scope that had quite the zooming feature on it. Once settled he threw his satchel to the ground and unzipped his trench coat, throwing it over his satchel revealing his rather white arms.


Feitan lined up several Magazines to his right in case he had to fire more than six shots which was very unlikely, though he never knew and he liked to be more safe than sorry. He pointed his rifle to the bar, ready to fire at anything that looked like movement. Feitan waited a good ten minutes waiting for someone to emerge from the bar, he didn't matter who came out he was firing as he was told to even if it appeared to b e a staff member he was firing. Seeing the door move he took a deep breath keeping his scope on it, once he saw someone, that appeared to be a man come out he began to slowly breath out, his rifle left of their upper body to be a sure shot, the 50.cal had enough of an impact to go through this guy most likely impairing him greatly though, unless he hit the lungs he wouldn't die instantly. On the very end of Feitan's breathe he fired, the bullet spinning out of the barrel at immense speeds, the sound of the shot wouldn't be heard until it was too late.


Feitan estimated everything that could interfere with his shot and he'd be prepared for another shot right after the first, cocking his rifle back and peering through the scope once more, whether he hit the target or not he'd take another quick breath before shooting instantly at either the mans moving body, or non-moving body it made no difference to him, this is what he lived for and this is why he earned his name 'The Gun', there was no way he was missing two shots in a row. @Joel The Unforgiven 
Feitan was prepared if any other person emerged from the bar to take more shots, he still had four bullets left in this magazine and three more magazines where this one came from.

Virgil would take the piece of paper reading it swiftly before promptly crumbling it up and placing it in his pocket then he'd look up to the air then to Hunter as a large smacking sound could be made as if a massive bullet was just sent into a wall or pavement. "Well good thing I planned ahead now isn't it?" He'd say patting Hunters shoulder giving him another look, those piercing green eyes full of malice and dark intent. He was young but already a very feared man his mind as big a weapon as his own two hands. He'd look to Natalie as if staring through her. "Have Chase come with you I'll run this solo, keep her protected if she is in fact what he wants. That and if she dares try anything it will be two against one. Always need a third party when one is blinded by their feelings." Virgil would say, he sounded cruel and uncaring but he was only being honest and when in his working mood he was just an intimidating person. He'd then turn around the corner walking slowly towards the bar working his way to a nearby alley snatching a bucket hat off a passing mans head placing it on his own hearing a slight "H-hey!" as he made his way to where he left his skateboard. Which was still next to the only other exit of the bar being it's back door.

 

[Hibiscus]

Hunter smiled at Virgil, he respected Feitan for his shooting skills, but revered at Virgil for his fierceness. "Yes sir." was all he could muster as Virgil ran off. He looked at Natalie, "You sure you want to do this, all of this mess just for me?"

 

[SilverCaress]

She squeezed his hand tighter, getting pi**ed at Virgil. Who was he to judge? Looking back and Sly, she nodded.


Again, Natalies phone rang, and this time she picked it up. Before she even had time to answer, shouting could be heard from the other line. "Fine! Send them! If you want more of your men to die then that's fine. They're going to run rogue one day, and you'll regret it all. Sylvia is in danger, Joel is...god knows..and all you can focus on is me?! Get your act together! I'm one of the best god damn women you've got, maybe let myself slip these past few weeks, but this is what you get for treating me like sh*t!" Slinging the phone down and back into her pocket, her face red and angry.

 

[Joel The Unforgiven]

The sound of a loud shot rang out through the area, the man grasped his chest and fell as a second shot pierced his leg. The unknown figure quickly became surrounded by people trying to nurse his wounds, emergency calls were sent out but it was far too late and the last of his life slipped out in a final breath.


Meanwhile, Joel was sipping away at a glass of water nodding contently to himself with a slight smirk painted on his lips "There's no such thing as paranoid..." he commented, relaxing back over two chairs with his arms behind his head - his eyes began to close over before remembering the girl from before "Oops." he blurted out, jumping up and standing there a moment in thought - no backdoor, no use of frontdoor, no use of windows... But, but, but, emergency services arrive... Police find sniper location forcing... Joel nods a few times, satisfied at his plan then returning to the seat and drinking the rest of the water in one big gulp "Time for a game of chicken motherfucker." he said absentmindedly, staring at a painting of a chicken on the wall before yawning.

 

[Hibiscus]

Hunter slowed down, allowing her to be right next to him. He knew no one was following them after that shot. "Who are they sending, should we get somewhere safe?" Then the rest of the conversation rolled through, not once did she deny being with them, it worried Hunter. "Are you done with them, please tell me I don't have to take Virgil's advice and watch you carefully." Hunter looked at her puzzled.

 

[SilverCaress]

Natalie looked at him, lowering her eyebrows, "What? Of course I'm done with them..But I don't want anything to be too obvious..I..I'll admit, I got a bit..angry there..too angry.. But they won't be sending anyone."

 

[Four The Magician]

Feitan wasn't worried of being found by any police, he was too far away to have his distance calculated, his shooting was too good to be done at close range and it was a much higher risk of being caught so he liked to test his abilities while being safe, he remained idle like he has done many times in the past, ready to wait hours on end for any more movement from the bar he didn't know if what he hit was his target but he awaited for confirmation or for a response from his members.

 

[Hibiscus]

"Good, and you shouldn't completely close yourself to them, we might need to talk to your boss." Hunter then remembered her friends, "As for your friends, we are pretty unlikely killers." He intertwined his fingers with hers, he saw the way she looked at Virgil, "Keep close with me and Virgil won't lay a finger on you.".

 

[SilverCaress]

Relaxing slightly, she nodded. What was she getting herself into, it was getting a bit much for her but for now, her head was above water. "..So what do you need me to do?"

 

[Hibiscus]

"Just send me the contact information of all the Syndicate member relevant to us. Virgil will hack out who we need to reason with and who we will avoid." Hunter frowned as they walked slowly, his charming side once again being swallowed by work.

 

[SilverCaress]

"Alright," She pulled out her phone again, sending him all the contacts she had.

 

[Hibiscus]

He forwarded them to Virgil with the title: You can start praising me. He then sent a message to Chase, "Where are you?". Hunter looked at Natalie, "Well I don't know where Chase is, but I'm guessing my apartment is safer then yours." He tried to make her feel like she did at the bar, "Will you accompany me, my dear Natalie?".

 

[SilverCaress]

((Again, sorry for the short replies. Pretty busy atm but can't resist to reply haha.))

 

[SilverCaress]

She smiled and looked at him, "Yeah, I will. As long as this wasn't all some kind of plan just to get me to your apartment?" She smirked, sticking her tongue out.


This boy, he was..she wasn't sure what he was, and sure, she felt reckless, but she also felt safe with him.

 

[Hibiscus]

"Once again my psychic powers have rubbed off on you, this was an entire scheme to get you to my house." He lead her down streets upon streets, the wind howling, cold night setting in. By the time they were at the door they had removed all space between them. "Welcome to my humble home", he opened the door leading to a sleek looking living room, "Make yourself comfy, I will get us something to drink, something strong correct?".

 

[SilverCaress]

The cold wind was nice against her warm rosy cheeks, which were now even brighter because of the cold.


His living room was beautiful, and she looked round. Natalie's 'living room' if you could call ot that, consisted of a chair and an old TV plus a VHS recorder.


"Yes please." Nodding, she walked over and sat down, removing her jacket once again.

 

[darkminathegone]

Chase had gone back to his apartment when Virgil told him to start heading. He did disguises and so he was going to make a disguise. It took him a long time and he didn't know what was happening but when he was done he got a text from Hunter. He looked at it and smirked, taking a picture if himself and sending it to Hunter and Virgil asking, "How do I look?" The picture of him looked exactly like Natalie smirking.

 

[Hibiscus]

Hunter got his picture and reeled, "Is she taking pics in my house?" Then saw Chase's number, "Guess we all have our expertise.". Upon entering the kitchen he grabbed his bottle of champagne and the orange juice from the fridge. He poured two mimosas, then shrugged as he took the champagne and the glasses too the living room. "Comfy?" He smiled, she was already on the couch, "I don't believe anyone will be joining us tonight, just me and you." He handed her the glass, "I know it is a little early, but well, welcome to the Zeppelin Natalie."

 

[SilverCaress]

"Yep, nice place you got here." She took the glass and nodded. Her hand shook slightly, Natalie was tired. Despite this, she knew that sleep was unreachable, nightmares haunted her and no matter how many hours she tried to lay there, it would go to waste.


"Thanks," Nat smiled, those were words she thought she would never hear. She remembered when she hated the other corporations with a passion, her late teenage days filled with hate.

 

[Hibiscus]

Hunter viewed his watch, it was late and the night was filled with drinking. Hunter was hardly buzzed, but sleep seemed like a wonderful idea. "Natalie its getting late, tomorrow, well today will have some surprises. I think sleeping wouldn't be a bad idea." Hunter then realized what the suggestion sounded like, "Ill stay in here, you can have my bed.".

 

[SilverCaress]

She smiled at him, "Don't be silly, I'll stay here." Downing her drink, she then yawned. "I don't mind the couch, I've slept on plenty in my lifetime."


Natalie sat the glass down and ran her fingers through her hair.

 

[Hibiscus]

"You sure?" Hunter dawned his flirtatious smile, "The bed has room for two." He put down his glass and took a pose, both hands in pocket with his eyes dead on hers. "Bet your beautiful eyes would be wonderful to wake up to.". With that Hunter turned around and glanced back, awaiting to see what she would say.

 

[SilverCaress]

"Well if you insist I may not be able to refuse.." She smirked at him, looking into his eyes which were locked on hers. She felt her stomach melt, no one had looked at her like that in a long time.


Letting her head fall back against the couch, she spoke quietly, "Maybe you'll get to find out."
