Nitro drives around the parking lot in the van to see how it handles. "This thing handles great!" he calls out as he takes a turn at nearly breath-stopping speed.
Then he sees the figure right in front of the car. SCREECH! Nitro slams on the brakes and comes to a stop just inches short of him. Hope everyone else was wearing seatbelts. Nitro wasn't. His head slams into the steering wheel, leaving a dent in the steering wheel and temporarily stunning him...although he's fine in a moment.
"Well", says a chastened Nitro, "I guess you really should always wear your seatbelt."

Angel first looks relieved that they missed whomever and then quips, "And they gave you a license and not me eh?"
To the rest, "Well, I better see if I can't go appologize and or introduce ourselves after that... " And he tries to teleport out of the van to great the new commer/passerby.
Assuming he can teleport out then...
Saying, "I am terribly sorry Nitro got a bit excited behind the wheel.. Are you alright? My name is Angel. And you are?"

The music station suddenly changes to Captain Jack as the figure turns to Angel "OH no problem, Mr Angel, I hadn't expected him to be THAT bad at driving, but It's all good." The guy smiles as the vans lights turn on, illuminating his distinctive form. A tall, Muscular man in a Red and Black suit wearing a visor and grinning. "Name's Optic, and I believe I'm the last to arrive. Sorry I'm late, spotted a mugging on my way over." He grins as they walk to the van door. "I love this song." He nods to the Nitro "Don't worry, man, I'm fine. You OK?"

Shooting Star wasn't wearing her seatbelt either. What the? she thinks, sliding off her seat during Nitro's abrupt turn. Quickly killing her motion relative to the van with her flight, Megan looks to the front and catches a glimpse of someone in the path of the vehicle. Hell. Unable to perfectly match the van's decceleration, Shooting Star only narrowly avoids slamming herself into the rear doors.
Stop. Count to ten... About a second after the near miss, Megan comments coolly: "If there's some kind of problem, I can drive."

"Hey, I'm fine. I've got a skull of iron- really, last month I got a little too drunk and had a friend hit me in the head with a baseball bat for kicks, and I was fine after a minute. But maybe you should drive. With a visor that cool-looking, I bet you can see in the dark."
Nitro takes his seat in the back. "Sorry about that, ladies and gents. Got a little carried away. But boy, what a sweet car."

Optic grinned as he hopped into the van "Yeah, amongst other things. So that's all of us, it looks like.. They said at 1230 we'd receive instructions, I doubt they have sensors to tell them when to start these computers.. So I guess we're supposed to wait the remaining 12 minutes 38 seconds.. I assume you've all introduced yourselves to each other?" He says as he looks at the computer, noting it's not hooked up and wondering whether it's worth trying to link into..
Meanwhile, he thinks to himself "So who do we have here..."
[sblock=OOC] Well Informed, Gather Info check + 16 for each person in the van to see how much I know about them.
*EDIT: If possible, I'll take 10.. I have Quickness 6 : Mental*
Also Time Sense, I just chose a random time.[/sblock]

Once Optic moves into the drivers seat, it seems that your patrons become aware that you are ready. On your screens, the metal man appears, and says
"Welcome to the Trust. I am Mr. Grey, The Trustee. I run the organization on behalf of its numerous anonymous benefactors, and keep the interests of these sponsors separated from the operations of the Trust.
We have chosen you from a vast array of possible heroes for this honor. As an example of the resources that we have at our disposal, we have placed some files on your terminals (Mr. Grey's window shrinks to only include an eigth of the screen, in the top right corner). These are YOUR files. You are entitled to know what we have found about you so far."
Paging through the documents, you find what could just as easily be a complete narrative of your lives. Report cards, medical records, bank records, news clippings, assorted photos, even files from government agencies, foreign and domestic. They even have your AEGIS files (AEGIS is a federal agency in charge of fighting supercrime and tracking super-activity). You are all relieved to find out that none of your AEGIS files include secret identities, they mostly track your supercareers and public activities, and in every case you are classified as Heroes (the classify supers as Heroes, Villains, Wildcards, and Inactives). None of the foreign files have secret identities either, but in a couple cases there were some close calls your were not aware of when traveling abroad. Not every country chooses not to actively seek to find supers' real identities.
"If you wish to leave, please exit the vehicle immediately, and tell no one of this. If you wish to stay, you must go to the Oxodyne Corporation facility at the docks, and proceed to the basement. Ms. White, our Director of Personnel, will meet you there, , and begin the next step in your initiation.
You will find assorted equipment near your seats. This is a standard starting package. One item of note is the weapon, which may surprise some of you. In our experience, there are times when individuals such as yourselves either lack access to your powers or do not want to display them, and some of you have no other way of dealing with enemies at range. Thus, this service pistol is issued to every Trust hero. Another item of note is the iPhone. This modified version has special encryption features, and can be used for receiving mission data. It also includes two lines. Use one for non-Trust business, and reserve the other for your hero identity only.
The boxes in the back contains more technology, including surveillance equipment, heavier weaponry, and utility items such as a fire extinguisher and some blocks of C4."
