Xi says incredulously.  "We were made; there is no other explanation.  Made to be assassins and killers.  You can try to analyze and rationalize, but that is what we were supposed to be.  And an empathic healer would be ideal for any combat unit.  Even if he's unconscious or dying, he can still heal.  It is either that or you were just the prototype for the other healer." Raisa"Ah," Michael grunts.  He shifts uncomfortably, glaring at the bucket.  "Well then, I guess I will have to suffer a bit more embarassment then.  Let's get this over with; I may not like it, but I only get fed once a day.  Just," he says with a canine sigh.  "Just take the damn lid off and push it to me with a staff or something," he says with great distaste. But I wanna see Jackal, you hear Dara say mentally.  Obviously Michael does too. KevinYou and Carl finish breakfast and Li clears the table.  Once done, she and Nova drag you over to the dojo, collecting Dara along the way, where your first training session begins.  It is about ten times less strenuous than yesterdays session.  Li has you pair off with Dara, and Nova pairs off with Carl, who is soon, and repeatedly, tossed to the ground. "Still worried about breaking me, big man?" Nova quips as she tosses him across the dojo.  To your surprise, Carl doesn't get up.  "Come on, Carl.  I'm still in the mood to school you some," Nova teases.  Carl still doesn't get up. Arizona - Lockheed"Yeah, but it's fun," Cosmo smirks. Vince comes over, Dr. Worthy trailing him making notes on a pad.  "Next time you call me Goat Boy, I'm gonna..." "Yeah, yeah, whatever," Cosmo says.  "Go check out the hole in there," Cosmo says.  "You're the only one who can do it safely, what with you able to become all ghostlike." "It's not that easy," Vince says.  "I mean, I n..." "Well, if you're chicken, I guess I can do it," Cosmo says calmly. There's a puff of dust as Vince disappears down the small tunnel created by the avalanche, then vanishes down the hole.  A few moments later, he pops his head up.  "Hey, Loki!  I can see in the dark and all, but I you might wanna come and bring Agent Simmons with you!  There's a huge tunnel, and tire tracks!" "Damnit, Johnson was right.  I'll never hear the end of this," Agent Simmons says, heading up the passage to the hole. Dr. Kentworthy approaches Johan and Anna.  "Perhaps while your colleagues are exploring the tunnel, you would like to learn about the cryogenic containers that were stolen?" New York - MethesdaSanjay"I dunno," he says.  You hear something from the warehouses, and looking over, you see several workers, along with several well dressed observers standing outside the open main doors, discussing something.  "We could go say hi," Rebound suggests.  "That oughta create a distraction." As you watch, a hover-car limosine drives up, pulling right up to the front doors.  The oriental driver, dressed in his livery, opens the back door and a large caucasian man steps out.  He looks over to you and looks a bit surprised to find you there, but says nothing to you, heading instead into the offices with four significantly smaller, oriental men who have the appearance of bodyguards..  That must be Ms. Henry's next appointment. He looks oddly familiar, but you can't quite place him. Michelle and StraightjacketAs you argue in hushed tones, the door opens and a well dressed Caucasian man comes in, flanked by four smaller oriental bodyguards.  Michelle thinks there's something familiar about the burly man, but can't quite place where she's seen him.  Straightjacket is facing away from the door. Having left you to your secret conversation and returned to work, Stephanie looks up as the men enter. "It's good to see you again, Mr. Murphy," she says cheerfully, causing Straighjacket to spin around at the mention of the name.  "Ms. Henry is just wrapping things up with another client, but I can take you to the warehouse if you like?  Oh, and you're in luck too!  An EPIC team is here today hoping to speak with Ms. Henry as well.  A few are outside getting some air, but that's the Metal Mistress and Str..." "Straightjacket.  Yeah.  We've met," he says, a cocky grin on his face.  "They'll give anyone fancy names these days." Now Michelle remembers where she's seen him.  It's the Headsman.</blockquote>
