"Hmm, I'll call I think." Alex glanced down at his cards and nodded before tossing in a few more bucks. Wiz and Joker both were still in while lady had left the game before and was now back in her room reading like always. "So Wiz, what's it gonna be? Staying in with the real men? Or are you gonna go back to playing video games?"

Joker grinned over at Alex, "Thrill, don't be rough on the poor guy. Maybe he has a babe on there and he's trying to get into her pants, we all know he needs to get some." Now it was Alex's turn to laugh as Wiz turned red.

Wiz looked back at his cards questioninly, "You know, one of these days I'll teach you two not to talk to me like that. Maybe I'll turn a security system back on right after lady gets out, eh? That would stop your laughing." Wiz grinned at the two younger men who had both sudden looked over at eachother as if wondering whether or not he would really do such a thing. "I think I'll call it a night boys, maybe I can convince lady to let me give her a nice back rub."

A beautiful voice came from the other room, sure it was a angry voice but, beautiful none the less, "Wiz, you better not even think about that kind of stuff with me. I'll rip it off and make soup out of it." Joker snickered at Wiz as he turned even redder, "Oh and Joker, stop laughing or I'll feed that soup to you and Thrill."

Alex looked up from his card towards the room Lady was in, "What the hell did I do?!"

Lady poked her into the doorframe with a smug smile on her face, "I heard you yesterday talking to Joker about some interesting pictures you took of me. Oh by the way, I took some very nice ones of you as well. I think I'll keep ahold of them for awhile."

This time it was Alex's turn to blush, "Oh...yes I remember those now. Heh, well how about you stop laughing now Joker. I have no intentions of eating that soup that Lady wants to make."

Joker nodded quickly, "So then how about we finish this hand up?" Joker grinned at his cards before laying them on the table, "Four of a kind, Queens! Take that you lucky bastard! I'd like to see you beat that."

Alex smiled at his friend as Joker reached for the money, "Well, then I think you'll get what you like." He put his cards on the table face up, "Straight Flush, last time I checked that be your four of a kind. I win again."

Joker glared at Thrill with daggers for eyes. "You lucky son of a bitch. Next thing you know Lady will be throughing herself at you. That would be beyond human luck though, if that happened I think I'd have to worship you like some kind of god."

Alex laughed, "I doubt that will happen, but if it does then you don't have to build me to large of a shrine, no I think a offering of a few grand will suffice."

The building they were all in was a four story building which on the outside looked like it needed some major repairs, however the inside was pretty nice, decent carpets on the floor, some good heating systems. Comfortable beds, yes it was a nice place to hang out at and owning the building, or sort of, was pretty cool too. The area was hardly great as it was in the rougher part of town but, really who was going to mess with them? It would take a damn fool to attack these four, or at least someone who didn't know who they were.

Glancing down at the small black card, Tiara's eyes scanned over the address that was printed on it's front. She was at the right place... or atleast according to the address it was the same place. But why on earth would such a place be in this part of town? Wouldn't it be further uptown, and look slightly less run-down? You'd think it would be... or atleast that's how Tiara saw it by the way Tristan talked about it.

Maybe he had given her the wrong address? Or maybe she just read it wrong. Glancing at the numer on the building... then glancing to the card... she couldn't deny the fact that this was the place Tristan had told her she'd be going to get her interveiw. She sighed heavily as she shoved the card back into her pocket. She told Tristan she'd do this... she'd be more than happy to... and she was. Though her nerves were telling her other wise.

Tristan said they could find out just about anything. They could find everything out about you... from your parents, your grades in school, probably who you were friends with. Tiara was more than sure she had hidden her past well enough... but one can never be too sure with how far technology has gotten. She didn't need them finding about Mike, Mike was a completely diffferent person than Tiara... she was more than sure she made that clear.

After she ran, she was sure to make sure Mike disappeared forever. To those in Los Angeles... After killing her father, Mike ran. Soon after they found a body that had drowned not too far from the city. The face was wounded pretty badly beyond recognition... and no one claimed the body. So they assumed it was Mike. But if they found out other wise was beyong Tiara's guess. She assumed that after five years they've discovered Mike was still on the lose already.

Stepping closer to the building, she placed her hand on the door handle. It was now or never. She had been waiting for a job like this pretty much ever since she had arrived at Demaitre. A job where her life would remain a secret. Not to mention this paid a hell of a lot better than the diner she worked at. So why on Earth was she hesitating to go inside?It had to be because of her damned nerves.

Taking another deep breath, she shoved her nervousness to the back of her mind and pushed the door open, though just enough for her to slip in. She had never chickened out or ran from anything before... and she wouldn't start now just because she thought these guys were going to find out about her past. If they did they did... if they didn't, then she was one lucky girl.

Joker hit the table, "I can't believe I lost to you again Thrill! I've never met such a lucky guy before in my life." He looked up to his friend and laughed as they both shared a part in their inside joke. Until Lady brought him back to earth.

Her sultry voice came as her head rose from the book she had been reading, "Someone here. Only one though, unless I'm wrong." She smiled faintly and put her head back in the book not really caring what her comrades did to the poor girl.

Alex looked up quickly nodding, none of them questioned how Lady knew these things, she just did and she wouldn't lie about someone being here. He quickly jumped to his feet and reached a bookshelf that was lined with guns. He snagged a SMG and pointed it towards the only entrance from the hall to the rooms, he had made sure there was a hallway from the front door to the rooms, which all branched off the one room they were in, so that men would have to file in one at a time.

Joker was only a step behind Thrill from getting a gun, though he grabbed a large combat shutgun rather then a SMG, he noticed Wiz pulling out that tiny pistol of his and lady not even looking up from her book to be bothered with just one person.

Alex looked over at Joker smiling, "Get ready but, don't fire right away. After all we are expecting a newbie to show up and I wouldn't want her to have her head blown clear off before even saying hi to us, how about we wait to find out what she's like before we blow her up?" Joker and Alex once again shared a laugh as they waited for the door to open.

Pushing through the door, her first site wasn't the one that you would assume to get when first entering a building. You'd think you'd see a nice little receptionist, or atleast enter in a room with tables and chairs. But who knew that when you would enter this place... the first thing you'd see would be a couple of guys pointing guns to your head with possible intentions to blow it off.

At first she couldn't say anything actually thinking someone would really blow her head off. But she knew that if she didn't say anything... it would do one of two things to her. Make her appear stupid, and that she wouldn't beable to handle a gun pointing towards her by surprised. Or get her head blown off. And she didn't exactly want either of those things to happen.

"Ummm... I'm assuming I'm in the right place." She murmmered as she shut the door behind her, hopeing they would recognize her and hold their fire. "I'm Tiara Vinake. Tristan sent me here for an interview." She decided to keep her place by the door, not wanting to triger something, or give them any reason to shoot her. She didn't want to die before atleast getting to the interview.

She glanced from one guy to the next, observing who they were and what they were holding. Obviously the one in front had to be the leader. And the one behind him his second in comand (If she had to guess). Then the one in the back wouldn't be much higher up, unless he was the one working behind the scenes. What a predicament she had goten herself into now.

Alex nodded, 'That's the girl from the picture Tristan sent me. Okay I guess I'll have to make sure she isn't shot.' Alex lowered his own gun but, kept it in hand, "Okay guys, she's the newbie. Don't shoot her" He had a feeling they wouldn't have shot since he lowered his own gun but, you could never be sure about those kinda things.

Joker looked over at Alex and nodded before lowering his shotgun and looking over the girl, 'So this was the new member? Only Thrill ever sees the pictures the boss sends so I thought for sure it was going to be a guy. Girls are rare in this line of work, well there is Lady but, then again she's like a killing machine.' "Okay Thrill, I geuss you would know what she looks like. I geuss I won't kill her since you'd be pissed if I did." Joker grinned and walked over to the card table to start cleaning up.

Wiz's hands shook as he held the weapon pointed at the woman who entered, 'Oh please don't make me have to kill her. I don't know if I could handle killing someone else again.' When Thrill and Joker lowered their guns though Wiz let out a sigh of relief and lowered his own glancing at Lady who never even looked up from her book.

Alex looked around to make sure nothing was going to shoot before going over to the card table and motioning for Tiara to sit down at the table too. "So, you're the one Tristan recruited? Well I geuss I should just be pleased to get any one after such a long time without being allowed to recruit. Anyways I'm Alex, though everyone calls me Thrill. That," He pointed to the man who was holding the shotgun easily and was now watching TV. "Is Jake, aka Joker. The other guy," He made a motion to a man who was now typing on a very nice looking computer, "is Xander, aka Wiz." He was about to go on when a light cough came from the other room from behind a book. Alex looked over his shoulder to see Lady glaring knives at him for leaving her out. "Oh yes, that is Lucia, we just call her Lady to get on her nerves."

He then sized up the newbie trying to decide a few things. "So then, Tiara. You were recruited by a very powerful man, however by a man who doesn't know much about this group. Sure, he runs us but, he rarely takes any notice of what we do. Basicly, what I'm saying is, you may have been approved by him but, around here our word is the final decision. So what makes you qaulified to be a member of this team?" (This will be part of your details section, it could also decide what you are trained on to become your specs.)

Tiara's eyes followed from one person to the next as he introduced them. She couldn't help but noticed how Wiz handled the gun. She noticed these kind of things, and could instantly tell he wasn't much for the gun. So that just finalized her suspision of him being the one that worked behind the scenes. But she noticed the obvious with the others as well.

Alex was definitly the leader, while Joker was like the second. Both didn't hesitate to pick up a gun in defense, and obviously knew how to use them. Lady on the other hand... she was more of a puzzle to Tiara. How she just stayed in the back while the guys took care of buisness sort of lead her to believe Lady knew her strengths and knew the guys could handle their own.

She moved throught he hallway after Alex had motioned for her to sit at the table. To be honest she had to admit she was slightly worried about how this would all go... but as long as she kept her head straight, she was sure she'd do fine. She just had to stick with her story that Mike never existed. Not too hard...right? Just stick with the story she's gone five years convincing people of.

"Well," She began as she sat at the table after he cleared it off, "I'm not sure what you'd exactly call qualifications, but in my opinion what really led Tristan to believed I'd be good for this job would be the fact that I can handle my own in pretty bad situations." She shrugged. She would go into detail but she didn't want to sound like she was too overconfident.

If they wanted to ask questions... she'd answer. But she wouldn't say anymore than she'd have to. She didn't want to relay too much information... or relay the wrong things that the group wouldn't care for. So she would just stick to her stratagy. Speak when spoken to... answer when asked... but the rest of the time, keep her damn mouth shut.

Lady had slipped into Tiara's mind quick and easy, she wasn't actually reading into anything more like being a lie detector. She would just tell them what she lied about so they could find out the truth for themselves. She found the spot in the brain and just waited to see what would happen in their convosation.

Alex waited for Lady to put the book back up, the sign that she was ready to do what she did. He geussed she had just learned to read people lies after so long of doing it. "So Tiara, handling yourself...hmm I geuss that is a somewhat good reason. However I'm looking for examples, like how many grown men could you fight at once? Anything over three and I'll think you're either over playing yourself or flat out lying, I've seen highly toned Marines not be able to take on three men at once, alone, and unarmed. Any experance with any time of weapon? Hell a pipe is a weapon in this case."

Joker began to size up the girl in his head, judging this and that to try and get her into a good section of his mind. It was always good to have a idea of someone strength during this kind of thing. He could tell that Thrill was pushing hard for answers now, though the man's tone never changed.

Alex looked back towards Wiz for a moment before turning back to her, "What about your past? Just basics, where were you born? Who did you live with? I want full names of people I can check on and evidence I can see with my own eyes that you lived there. What jobs have you held? Have you ever been charged with a felony? If so what? Are you wanted in any state or country? If so for how long?" Most of these were just standard questions, things he needed to know to find out more important things.

Wiz typed quickly on the computer, going into this and that to find out information for this woman. School records, medical files, birth certificates, anything that might lead to proof of her existance. She wasn't a ghost like Lady, Tristan had told them not to bother looking up stuff for Lady cause she was a ghost but, no such order had come with this woman.

Tiara managed to keep her cool during the process. They were starting to dig into forbidden territory of her past. She noted the one back behind them looking through databases for her records and such. Hopefully it'll be the records of Tiara Vinake they find successfully. Though she couldn't get too cocky, there was still that chance they may find out about more than she wished them to.

"I can already tell you I can't take three men at once... but I know I can take at least one over sized man, or maybe two smaller ones if I'm lucky. Though in order to survive with two, I have to have a weapon of some sorts depending on their sizes." She muttered, being completely honest. When she was sixteen she was strong enough to take a grown man... her strength has only increased due to age.

"But as for weapons, my only experience has to deal with pretty much any object around me at my disposal. I'm more of a hand-to-hand combat type of fighter. I've lived on my own for five years now, so obviously I have to learn how to handle myself. I actually have my own fighting style that works with my strengths." She commented glancing between them all. The last time she was in an interview was for the diner... and the intensity of it was nothing like this.

"But my past is pretty basic. I was born in New York, and lived there till I was sixteen. My mother left at a young age and I lived with my father. Gerard Vinake, was his name. He saw sixteen as an age where a child should beable to support themself. Though right after I left he died of a stroke, and I don't know of any other relatives. After my mother left, the entire side of her family broke connections. I never even knew her name." Part of this was actually true. She never did know her mother, and right after she did leave her family disowned her.

"But the only job I've held for those five years was at a downtown diner, where I have been waitressing. Obviously not a very exciting job." She muttered the last bit under her breath. That was definitly a reason she wanted this job... to add thrill (sorry, bad pun) to her life. "But to finalize it, I've never been charged with a felony... so I'm not wanted anywhere." She finnished.

But only if they knew the truth. Lieing out her ass was something Tiara was particularly good at... and she had done a well enough job comming up with a fake past of 'Tiara'. If she got away with this... she'd be amazed at how well she would have been able to slip past these guys. But knowing how well this group was trained... she doubted she'd get very far if she didn't try.

Alex took in her answers as if they were indeed the truth, Lady would tell them what wasn't the truth so they could find out what was the truth after the girl left. He heard the sound of a keyboard moving at insane speeds behind him telling him that Wiz was indeed still looking for information of all kinds. "Well, we can teech you how to use guns, that's really not to hard of a skill to get decent at, and with some more training we can make it so you can fight better hand to hand."

"When it comes to othet things for this job you'll need to be good at taking orders, even if they coicide with your moral values. We have a job to do and if it doesn't get done, well then bad things happen." Alex couldn't remember the last time they had ever failed, but he could remember some of the horror stories he had heard from those who had failed.

Wiz looked up from his computer for a moment, clearly nervous about talking out of line he cleared his throat to get Alex's attention, "Um, excuse me Tiara but, can you tell me what highschool you attended? Or any school really, I can't seem to find you're school records in the databases. Also, can I please know who your doctor is now, and who it was back then?"

Alex waited for Tiara to answer, his eyes analyzing her while he waited for her to speak to the older someone geeky man. However his mind was reeling, Wiz couldn't find records? That was sorta strange but, maybe he looked in the wrong place or under the wrong name. It was a easy possiblity.

Tiara nodded her head with Alex's words, though didn't even want to guess what would happen if they were to fail. She highly doubted extermination was in mind.... but she didn't want to second guess the chance it could always be a possibility. She had heard of men killing their own because of a mishap of some sorts, blowing a complete operation.

Though when Wiz spoke up, she felt her heart skip a beat. She had completely forgotten about school and medical records, partially because it was so much more difficult to obtain false ones than it was for a birth certificate or license. She had to think quick on her feet, and she came up with the first thing that came to mind. It might not have been the best but it was all she had to work with.

"I never attended any schools. My father took it into his liberty to home school me because he thought that public, and even private schools ignored family values. And as for my doctor, my father didn't believe in medicine. He thought it to be something that made people money, but didn't do a damn thing for the soul taking it. So he refused to take me to any doctors. Today I just choose not to see one." She commented, her entire expression keeping it's cool... though on the inside she worried of what they would ask next.

So far, in her thoughts, it was going well... but she had this feeling in her gut that something was going to eventually go wrong. She didn't know what, or when... but the thought along made her blood curl. Tristan said that he might have tolerated lies... but these guys didn't. And Tiara had already dig her grave with these lies... but she didn't want to be buried alive in them.

Wiz frowned openly, "Well, do you know what program he used? You do know that all homeschooled children are registered under one of the programs in order to get a degree eventually and you'll need a doctor so you can get shots then." He sighed and began typing again though much slower now, "The boss better know something we don't about you, this is putting us through all sorts of hell."

Alex looked other to Wiz frowning, "Well, I know you'll do your best Wiz, find any records you can." Then he turned to the newbie again with a perplexed look on his face, "New York you say? In the United States? So you think you can give us your social security number? We can at least get some information from that." Tristan best be sure about her, as it is we'll be up for awhile just training her. Much less having to find out these things the hard way.

"Well, I think that's pretty good at least. So, why do you want to join this team? What our your reasons? Just the pay? Maybe some weapon fetish like Joker eh?" He grinned over at his friend who had gone from grinning to glaring at Alex harshly.

"You just wait pretty boy, I'll show you a weapon fetish once we're done with the Newbie." This time he grinned viciously and started laughing as evilly as a man grinning like that could.

Lady jumped up smiling happily," Oh Oh! Can I use the hot wax this time! You always hog all the wax Joker, it's so mean. I mean I like watching Thrill kick and scream while I straddle him as much as the next girl, which I'm sure they enjoy quite a bit, but sometimes nothing is better then nice burning wax, you know?" She too was smiling now.

Wiz caught on quickly and joined in on the grinning, "Oh joy, I get to record it again! It's always fun sending those videos to all the major sites and hacking computers to auto upload it!" The all broke out laughing, leaving Alex as the butt of the joke.

Alex smiled and shook his head laughing slightly, "Just so long as you don't use those nipple clamps again, they hurt." He smiled too when this only egged on their laughter but with him now. "So Newbie, you think you'll even fit in with us bad boys, eh?"

Joker spoke between spurts of laughter, "Oh yes, cause Wiz is such a bad boy!"

He smiled as Wiz blushed slightly before Lady jumped in. "Hey! I'm not a boy at all thank you very much Thrill, don't make me prove that to you again." She grinned at him seductively.

"Oh hell no! I still have scars from the first time!" He smiled but, Lady looked as if she had been slapped though after a moment she too began to laugh.

Tiara lightly placed a hand over her mouth as she smiled slightly... a silent chuckle trying to make it's way out of her throat... but she contained it quite nicely. This would certainly be an interesting group to work with, just as long as she could get past this seriously detailed background check.

"I wouldn't know if I could fit in with you 'bad boys'." She mocked lightly. "I've never had to deal with things such as nipple clamps or hot wax before... but I'm always up for new things." She laughed slightly.

Though her mind adverted back to Wiz, and his question about her father's teaching methods and her SSN. She was actually releaved he had asked about her SSN. She had actually managed to obtain one for 'Tiara'. Though it worried her about her father.

"My Social Security Number is 125-64-5324. But I don't remember what program my father used. It was a very open one though. It only required me to take certain subjects to a certain level... but the rest was of his religeous opinion to teach." She muttered.

Sure she highly doubted this would be buyable, but it was the only thing that came to mind... unless she decided to tell them that her father refused to let her go to school, and fought in court to keep her out because he didn't believe she sould be out in society, because he convinced him she was a psychopath.

Alex laughed at her comment,"Oh just wait for how we welcome you into our group. It's quite enjoyable, for us. Wiz was the last to suffer through it, so I'm sure he'll be happy to be doing it to you this time." Alex and Jake shared a grin while Wiz turned dark red trying to hid behind the computer screen.

"You guys always bring that up don't you?" Thrill and Joker, those two would always see him as the clumsy joke of a man who has never been laid. Well, atleast Lady doesn't see me that way. He didn't waste time thinking on that though, "Hmm, okay. Well then we might have to put you through a test to prove you finished some sort of schooling."

Alex shook his head, "Naw, we only need you to be smart Wiz. The rest of us are just weapons to do killing. She'll be fine, when her SSN goes through check her records before uploading them all into the mainframe. We still need to give her a code name though."

Jake smiled, 'Thrill acts like he is an idoit and sure sometimes he is but, the man is hardly uneducated, even if it is unproperly taught. He knows tatics better then most generals and could beat 5:1 odds if it came down to it.' He wouldn't tell the others how much faith he had in their leader, but deep down he knew they shared the same beliefs. However, more importantly, a codename for this girl. "Hmm, how about Newbie? Atleast until we get a newer recruit."

Alex smiled and Wiz laughed along with Lady. "Newbie it is then. Okay, Newbie. Welcome to the team, we'll outfit you with a weapon and make sure you can shoot later. For now, just breathe a sigh of relief."

"Just can't wait to see what you have for me." Tiara chuckled slightly to herself, only being able to imagine what these guys did in their free time. They seemed like a good group, and after they pulled up a few files with her SSN, she'd be home free for the most part.

Though the only thing she wasn't too thrilled about was her new codename. 'Newbie'. Sure she might have been the youngest of the group... but newbie made her sound so innocent... and far too young. Though for now she knew she'd have to deal with it untill someone else was lucky enough to take the name.

She did wonder what kind of weapon they'd have for her. She was more experienced in hand-to-hand combat, though given enough time she could become easily adapt to handling a gun.

"Is there anything else in particular you need from me?" She asked, just making sure they had everything they needed from her. This had went better than she had thought... but the real test was keeping it up around them.

Xander nodded to Thrill and began to finalize the checking of information before plugging it into the system mainframe. "Well, I'm done with her I think. At least I don't need to know anything else."

Jake sized up the girl grinning to himself, "You're to young for me really. Otherwise I'd ask for your number. Naw though, I think I know everything I need to know about you. Welcome to the team girly girl."

Lucia smiled openly setting her book down between her legs and looking lustfully at the younger woman. "My only question, have you ever been interesting in seeing how a woman does in bed?" Her smile made it look like a joke, but her voice and her eyes seemed to say she was very serious.

Alex laughed right out towards Lady, "She could do much better then you if she was interested." The icy look Lady shot him made his blood chill, oh yes he would pay for that comment later.
His eyes then went back to the Newbie,"Nope, I'm pretty sure everything set. If you wanna stay to chat you can. However you are free to go. Come back here tomorrow around 9 a.m. and we'll start your arms training."

(Okay, your post could end the rp if you want. Just so you know what's going to happen from here. Later, we'll have a breif rp, and I mean breif, about you getting your first day of training. Then we'll do your first mission. After that I'll pm you the other info. Like how to get promoted and stuff.)
