Heart Game: Intensity (Turn 5)

In the beginning, there is nothing but darkness and silence. A sleep that gives no rest but one out of necessity in order to keep functioning. Behind closed eyelids, the numbers of a clock tick down - one painstaking second at a time.

TIME UNTIL REBOOT:


And then you wake up.

As you shift to a standing position, you feel something sharp and pointed press against your side. Digging into the nearest pocket, you will find two small puzzle pieces. And from their odd shape, it looks like they would fit into a 3D spherical puzzle. Odd. You've never seen them before, but you do get a sense that these are a currency of some sort. Spend them wisely!

Game start.

The contract.

[ He shifts subtly, paying attention to the weight of his clothes to figure out whether or not he has any of his weapons on him. ]

I'm afraid you're going to have to refresh my memory. I have had a long night, and the details are escaping me now.

[ He will find that he has any normal weapons that he carries on his person in Imeeji.

The King of Hell laughs at that statement. ]

Have you forgotten our deal? Talon. I'm hurt.

[ No, he's not. ]

[ A sharp snap of his fingers and a holographic screen appears in the air before you - a sleek silver stylus hovering in mid-air right next to it.



Parties and Assignment.

    In consideration of the mutual covenants made herein, the parties agree as follows:

    Compensation.
    The "independent contractor" will be granted the following abilities:

    Termination. Any betrayal, perceived or otherwise, of the "independent contractor" against the "King of Hell" will result in one hearing on behalf of the "independent contractor." Should the hearing be failed, all powers and identity will be stripped of the "independent contractor" immediately and s/he/they shall become one of Damned until their recycle date to be re-placed within the Production.

    There's a place for your signature down at the bottom. ]

    So do you find these terms agreeable?

    [[ Mechanic: Aligning with the King of Hell is free for Talon because he is the only independent contractor. No puzzle piece required. ]]

    [ Then he has one (1) dagger on him, tucked into the waistband of his pants. ]

    [ He relaxes (slightly) while he reads over the contract. Still unexpected, but certainly better than this set-up had him worrying about. ]

    Yes, quite agreeable. Particularly your adjustment to the rules of termination. Ideally those will not come into play at all, of course.

    I thought you would appreciate that.

    [ And with a wave of his hand. ]

    Then by all means. Sign along the dotted line.

    [ His name flashes once - as if the image was saving. And then the contract fades just as quickly as it appeared. Congratulations, you know have the powers vested to you by said contract. ]

    Well then.

    I am eager to see how you will proceed to your end game.

    I'll do my best to make it a finale to remember.

    Then consider this a parting gift - I'm not the real King of Hell.

    Make sure you find him if you want an actual showdown.

    I don't mind entertaining you in the meantime.
    iamverybadass: (8))

    Is that so? Good to know I have an actual target.

    I'll be in touch.

    [ Turning to leave. There's a lot of work to get done while he still can. ]
