Sarah dug deep into her pockets and dug out a five dollar bill, sliding it onto the counter before she grabbed her coffee and took a sip. It was scolding hot, having been just brewed, but she didn't mind. So long as it was bitter. She had lost her her taste for anything sweet years ago. She took another sip of her coffee as she walked out the door and down the street.


Nick looked up to Nilith and nodded happily. Maya, however, was singing an entirely different tune. She jumped off the table she had been sitting on and walked to Nicholas's side. "I got a better idea. No. I got the feeling your just trying to use my brother."


"I'm perfectly fine with it."


"Shut up while grown-ups are talking. What are you playing at here, Nilith? You some kind military leader looking for someone to 'revolutionize' weaponry? Maybe a scientist looking to smooch of someone else's idea?"


Miles was currently strolling down the side. If you call strolling carrying five coffees and a box of donuts back to the jerks who sent you to do their errands. Despite everything he was sent out to get, he was actually doing pretty well, weaving in and out of commoners who were living out their daily lives. At that moment, he was walking past The Coffee Shop.

 

[Azure Sky]

''Thank you'' said Aron while he took out his wallet and paid Xin for the cappuccino. He took a sip, it was quite hot, but good. As he stood there he analyzed Xin a little. The man's build didn't seem to be the result of bodybuilding , but that of martial art training.He would now, as an expert in a few martial arts himself. ''Hey, do you , by chance, practice martial arts?'' asked Aron, just to make sure his supposition was correct.

[Chayliel]

Xin looked over to Aron and gave a soft smile. "Why yes I do. How did you know?" He replied, happily. Not many people start conversations with their baristo but only the really nice kind do. He must have been one of those few.

Riley finished painting her arcade's wall. She had been doing so all night and desperately needed a coffee. She headed to The Coffee Shop like a zombie and got in line. She stumbled the moment she stepped through the doorway. "Ow..."

 

[Azure Sky]

''Oh, mainly because of your build. It's not the type made by bodybuilding or olympic training'' pointed out Aron. He had a pretty athletic build himself, but Xin had more bulk. The man seemed really chill. Aron guessed that's what they'd call a healthy soul in a healthy body.

 

[Chayliel]

Xin smiled nervously and laughed awkwardly. "Oh. Umm. Thank you?" He he scratched the back of his head then fixed his ponytail. When he noticed the girl stumbling through the door he asked her, "Are you ok miss?" He was ready to jump over the counter and help her if she needed it. But he had to stay behind the counter because his boss was a jerk.

 

[Happy Red Mage]

"I'm good." She said as she stood up and walked up to the counter. "Give me a Double Ristretto Venti Half-Soy Nonfat Decaf Organic Chocolate Brownie Iced Vanilla Double-Shot Gingerbread Frappuccino Extra Hot With Foam Whipped Cream Upside Down Double Blended, One Sweet'N Low and One Nutrasweet, and Ice...and a something to munch on please?" She said as she pulled out her wallet.

 

[Chayliel]

Xin coughed and wrote down what she said exactly, thanks to Ao Shin's memory capabilities. "One of... Those comin' up." He told her with a smile and he started to make it. About five minutes later he set the coffee down on the counter and he grabbed a cookie with a napkin from behind the counter and set that down too. "That'll be twelve dollars." He smiled and sighed. "By the way. I like your style miss." He smiled and at her.


"You like her."


"No. I just like her style. There is a difference."


"There is a difference 'sir'"


"I just like her style. There is a difference SIR"


Xin thought back and forth to Ao Shin.

 

[Azure Sky]

''Oh, I didn't present myself. I am Aron...Aron Evans.I practice martial arts myself. Pleased to meet you'' he said to Xin, lifting his hand for a handshake. He had been educated to behave that way after all. The girl who just entered had something mysterious about her , but after a while he belived it was just his imagination and let it go.

[Pink Gorilla]

"I merely like to see people succeed in life." Nilith replied back, looking her in the eye. "I'm sorry if you would rather he wouldn't be. If you don't like it I will take it back." Nilith said walking towards the door. @AvidElmV2

 

[xXIceChocolateXx]

Amy's smirk immediately disappeared as a frown replaced it when the fireball she threw only landed on the roof, bouncing a few times before finally coming to a stop. "Huh...I missed." she said, feeling the disappointment weigh on her shoulders. Her head tilted to the side as she stared below, her eyes landing on Miles. "Hmmm...second time's the charm."


Creating another fireball in her hand Amy made sure to carefully throw this one. If this one failed to hit the intended target she would have to think of another way to cause trouble. "What's life without a little chaos." she muttered, watching and waiting expectantly.

 

[Chayliel]

Xin smiled and gladly shook Aron's hand. "Xin. Xin Zhao. Nice to meet you Aron." He felt good about this person and even Ao Shin had a good feeling about Aron. He was a genuine guy.

 

[Happy Red Mage]

Riley pulled out the exact amount and handed it to him. She then went to sit in one of the free chairs, the really comfy ones, and started to enjoy her stuff.

 

[Azure Sky]

Aron smiled and was about to chat some more, but he received a message on his phone. He looked at it and his expression changed to a very serious and concerned one.'' Well, Xin, I'd like to sit and chat some more , but it seems there is something urgent I have to attend to. See you some other time... Have a nice day'' he said as he ran out of the bar and started running inhumanly fast at 80 km/h towards the city center.


Once he reached his hideout he changed in his Jaguar outfit, put on his gloves with carbon steel claws and went to the top of a building. From there he started doing some parkour, his destination was , for the moment, unknown.


@Trundle @Metaphysics

 

[Chayliel]

Xin was about to say farewell but Aron took off, in a rush. When he saw him leave the coffee shop, he saw him sprint incredibly fast. Xon's eyes widened and he was very confused. For all that Xin knew, he was the only "special" person out there. He immediately jumped over the counter and ran out of the door watching the man off in the distance. "Hmm." He thought and Ao Shin told him that Aron was indeed special and that Xin should make acquaintances with him. Xin agreed and he ran in the store and yelled at his boss, "Im taking off for the day sir!" Without getting a response he ran out of the door and started to sprint off in the direction that Aron was going. When he didnt see anyone in his direction, he called down lightning to change his outfit ino his armor and spear. The lightning could be seen from anywhere on the city.


@Azure Sky

 

[Azure Sky]

As Aron jumped from building to building he couldn't help but notice the lightning. ''Huh, that's wierd...lightning out of nowhere, on a day like this?'' thought to himself Aron. Then he saw a man in an oriental amor with a spear. ''Huh, wait...that man ... is that Mr. Xin?'' said Aron, the last part of his sentence was on a higher tone than usual.


Aron was in his Jaguar outfit which highly resembled that of the Black Panther , but it had it's differences. He was wondering if he was seeing things. Even if the man in armor was indeed Xin, he had something urgent to do.


A little birdie told him that a bunch of criminals were about to make a little 'deal' regarding high amounts of TNT. He eventually found them. He quickly tried to defeat all of them. He stoped them in their attempt to pull out their guns and disabled them. ''Who the hell is this freak?'' asked one of them before receiving a punch in the face, but Jaguar held back, otherwise he would have killed the man. Aron belived he defeated everyone but a few peope were hiding in the shadows with laser weapons ready to attack . Aron's danger intution would have kicked in but it was not like he could see the future. The men were ready to shot him, he might have been able to survive. Was someone going to intervine and stop the criminals?


@Trundle

 

[Chayliel]

Xin saw in the distance an outfitted man that had about the same stature as Aron, but he was probably just imagining until Ao Shin confirmed his suspicion. Xin was also told to meet Aron at a certain warehouse to help him out in a fight, but he wouldn't be able to fight with his storm abilities or in his dragon form because of the explosives. Xin nodded unintentionally and ran off at about 40 miles per hour, which was fast, but not as fast as Aron. He came to the warehouse and he slowly entered through the back door and saw Aron in the outfit. He looked around for the gunners and Xin saw one of the gunners aiming at Aron and he quickly turned into lightning and what seemed like teleported behind the gunner, Xin put his spear around the gunner's neck and made a silent knock out. When the gunner dropped his gun, the other gunners around him turned and pointed their guns at him, Xin moved into the shadows and repeated his process, making the same thing happen another two times, until one of the gunners pointed the gun at his face. Xin dropped his spear making a noise, he tried to alert Aron of his position so he could help him out. There were just two more gunners, and they were both pointin their guns at Xin, ready to fire.

 

[Azure Sky]

Aron heared the noise caused by the spear and ran towards the direction of the noise and used his accelerated perception to better understand what's happening. Two gunners were pointing thier laser weapons at the man in armor who was indeed Xin. Aron performed a quick and long jump appearing right behind one of the gunners and knocking him out with a chop in the back of the head, before he tried anything. Afterwards he quickly threw him towards the other gunner, blocking his attempt to shoot at Xin while also causing him to fall, hit his head and faint.


Afterwards he performed a really long jump towards Xin. ''Are you ok?'' he asked. He looked better and saw many gunners where knocked out, which made him realise that Xin helped him out.


@Trundle

 

[Chayliel]

Xin dropped his hands and watched as Aron saved his life. "Well now I am." He laughed and said, "Thanks by the way. They call me The Divine Storm." He held his hand out to shake Aron's, they obviously knew each other but he wanted their alternate identities to meet, formally. Xin smiled and winked at Aron. "And who do I have the pleasure of acquainting this fine day?" Xin said to let him know that he wanted them to be friends.


@Azure Sky


((Btw I am going to gymnastics practice so I will post again in 4-5 hours. Yep... I know... I have to run 2 miles in 15 degree weather then condition. It sucks.)

 

[Azure Sky]

@Trundle


''You can call me...Jaguar'' said Aron on a slightly deeper tone than usual. Xin's wink and behaviour made him realize that the man knew who he was. ''It is a pleasure to meet you Divine Storm, I would also like to thank you for the help'' he added, pointing out to the knocked out gunners.

 

[Chayliel]

Xin kept smiling. "I guess I could say the same to you." He said while picking up his spear. "So do you do this sort of thing often? Because I do and I was thinking... You know... Maybe... We could... Ya?" He awkwardly tried to ask Jaguar if they could be partners because it is never bad to know someone's got your back.

 

[Azure Sky]

''You'd like to make a team?'' asked Aron, who read Xin's intentions. ''Sure , why not. I do these types of things often so a partner would help me alot in my fight against crime and evil'' he added as he laughed for a short while.


Indeed togheter with Xin, they could become a strong force.


@Trundle

 

[Chayliel]

Xin laughed and scratched the back of his head. "Ya that... Anyways, sweet! Let's go do something so I can show you my true power." He said while turning into lightning and riding a current to the back door of the warehouse almost instantaneously. He waited for Jaguar to catch up, knowing it wouldn't be too long.

 

[AvidElmV2]

Sly had left Arrow Dude at his base a couple of days ago. Currently, he was on a contract. He had been paid to take down someone by the name of 'Jaguar'. He was doing the exact opposite, sitting in a lawn chair on a roof, enjoying a beer.


 
Miles' spider sense alerted him of the incoming attack. He subconsciously did a side flip, followed by three backflips and a twist. He stared down at the coffees, which had emptied during his display. He looked up to his attacker and growled, dropping his precious cargo onto the ground before he pointed a finger at the girl. "You! Do you know how much those coffees costed?! Do you hav 20 dollars to spare!? Do you know how hard it was to memorize all of crazy orders!? Do you know what a double mocha, vanilla twist, dark chocolate- blah, blah, blah is!? Do you?!


'Miles. Calm down, it was just a coffee. A ridiculously overpriced, unrealistic, unnecessarily long named coffee, but a coffee nonetheless."


'No! It was much more than that! Much MUCH more! I had to repeat that order over and over again for THREE HOURS!!! THIS WOMAN WILL PAY!!!'


'Your being over dramatic .'


'Am I? Am I really?'


'Yes, you are.'

 

[Azure Sky]

Aron ran quickly towards Xin. ''Ok, I am quite interested to see what you can do'' he said. He awaited to see what Xin would do, but before that he knew that they needed to find a better place.


''So, where exactly would you like to go?''
