Assemble

"Chemical plant? What do you do there?" Jin walked along with them with her hands in her pockets.

"And how would you 'handle' Mutant related crime in this team?"

*Eve sits down at a table, takes out a notebook, then starts recording the conversation*

Taiyo: "You're sweet and adorable."

===================================

Shorts: "Hang out."

===================================

Jack: "It is a police force of Mutants for Mutants. Humans can try to go against Mutants with their equipment, but how often does it work when someone like Alchemist comes along? It's hard to wrestle someone to the ground when they can turn you into Germanium with a single touch. The goal is to prevent the loss of life and cut down on Mutant crime while showing the world that not all Mutants are dangerous. Which is also why we're recruiting from this facility."

"Could be fun," Jin said. "Just I don't know where it is. Pretty new. Guess I'll find out somehow, but I've got to be careful exploring all by myself, right? I don't want to run into any of those gangs people talk about."

"And I could be a part of it?" Grimm asked, with a hint of disbelief.

*Cameron goes to get Chinese food for the group*

A"Oh my...that's the nicest thing anyone's ever said to me! Thank you, you're so lovely!"

*Ven sniffs.*

Taiyo: "Thank you."

Taiyo eyes Ven, kinda nervous.

===================================

Jeans: "How new are you to town? Like just moved here ten minutes ago?"

Cameron's order was screwed up as the people running the shop are full blown Chinese and can't understand a word he said nor can he understand them.

===================================

Jack: "I can guarantee your entry assuming you cooperate."

"Pretty much, or well, last night," Jin said. "Only just getting out of the house really."

Grimm looked up at the ceiling for a few moments, noiselessly mouthed a few quick words, and then looked to Jack, "I will cooperate."

V"What?"

*Cameron is displeased but takes the food back to the table*

Taiyo: "Oh, um...nothing."

The domed roof of the sportsplex comes into view, someone getting off at the same stop as them rings the bell.

===================================

Jeans: "Right..."

===================================

Jack: "Excellent. This Tuesday, you'll be initiated and meet some of your new co-workers."

"So, where you heading?" Jin asked.

"Fine."

*They presumably get off.*

*Eve crosses her arms, annoyed at Jin wandering away with some weirdos*

Inside the main hall, Spring is waiting for them in a plain ol' black dress, a duffle bag over her shoulder.

Spring: "Hello, everyone."

===================================

Jeans: "Nowhere in particular."

===================================

And so Jack bids farewell and leaves.

*Ven waves.*

T"Hello."

A"Oh, um...good afternoon, Spring."

*They look over, noting that Aroma is kind of wringing her hands.*

"Well, I guess I'll head off somewhere and get something to eat, thanks for the info," Jin swivelled on the spot to face the opposite direction and raised a hand in a wave. "See you round maybe."

Grimm closed his eyes but did not sleep.

*Eve and Cameron wait back at the table*

Taiyo smells what Ven likely smells, not sure what to think of the situation.

Spring looks between the group, unsure of what they're staring at Aroma for.

Spring: "Wonderful you could all make it. I trust you're all doing well?"

===================================

The give non-commited farewells and continue talking as they leave.

Shorts: "Should've told her about the party. She looks easy."

Jeans: "That is never a good thing."

"Um, yes, quite well. Thanks. Uh...before we go swimming, could I talk to you? In private?"

Jin wandered back to the table with Eve and Cameron, taking a seat, "I might have an idea of how to find some of these things, now."

Eve:<By going off with those strangers?>

"Or going where they go," Jin leaned forward and rested her cheek in her hand. "Apparently they hang out around the old chemical plant and the dump. I'm guessing if we go around there it won't take too long to find someone who can get us what we want... then we can start following their source."

*Cameron shrugs, mouth full*

Eve:<We may as well give it a shot.>

Spring: "Sure, of course."

===================================

A group of six gangster enter the front lobby of a high rise, the lobby's decor heavily eastern inspired. The secretary looks at the six and their ill concealed firearms, Kyle Malkovich steps up to the front desk.

Kyle: "Where's Tokugawa?"

The secretary's legs shake under the desk, but she attempts to stay firm as security makes its way downstairs.

Secretary: "I'm afraid you'll need an appointment."
