Jack is a well-built scruffy bearded man standing in the one corner of a large Hexagon Fenced of area. The announcer a skinny man in a suit tells the crowd that all bets will stop when the next contender, an Metal & Mineral Heka user freshly graduated out of the army enters the ring. He gestures that the two contenders meet him in the middle of the ring. He then gives them a quick over view of the rules of an Earth Arena. Announcer:" You should know this by now but you have to be either stupid or desperate to be in one of these underground fights, so let me tell you again. You are fighting in an Earth arena. Heka is allowed but you cannot use any form of projectiles' and the fight ends when I say it ends. That's all "The announcer turns around and leaves the ring. As soon as he steps out the bell rings and the match begins.
Zack the M&M Heka user starts to crystallize his skin as he walks forward. The eerie green crystals shining in the light provided by a couple of lamp posts at the edge of the arena. The crystals start to form into a shield on his left arm and in the other arm it looks like its dripping down to the floor. Jack sees that it's not dripping but forming what looks to be a whip. He walk closer and his suspicions are confirmed when Zack takes a leap forward and cracks the whip at him. The crowd starts cheering as they circle around each other. The whip splinters of small shards of crystal at Jack's face as it breaks the sound barrier. Jack, shirtless with only his army stile boots and trousers covers himself behind his flame shield. He looks at Zack from behind the vortex of flames making up his shield. The shield shrinks and he thanks Zack for ripping a hole in his pants. Jack's finger fidgeting with the hole just under his knee. The whip cracks again and Jack has to roll out of the way this time.
Jack Fires up his shield and in his left hand he materializes a claymore. The flames making up the claymore move so fast to create the blade it shines white. The arena now glitters green as the light from the sword reflects off Zack. Jack sprints towards Zack and the fighting begins.
Lee Azeban is the leader of the Elite Enforcers. The personal guard and authoritarians answering only to The Elders. She makes her way into the crowd at the illegal fight. It's filled with some high-ranking business men and degenerate gamblers. She walks to the fence surrounding the arena. People move out of her way as if she commanded them to. She sees Jack, now with flame shields covering his forearms and each hand has two white twenty centimetre flame spikes creeping over his knuckles. She sees Jack opening himself up to lose. His one arm is wrapped around the crystal whip and the other arm is pushing the spikes into Zack's neck. Zack is materializing a dagger and could at any moment stab Jack in the gut.
Lee cannot afford that Jack gets hurt now. She doesn't have time to wait for him to heal. Her suit lights up and transforms into her uniform. Her shoulders showing her rank and the rest of the material marches up her neck and into her ears. The fight stops as the crow scatters like broken class. The one side of the arena projects Jacks face as the winner by default for being the last one to leave the earth arena. Jack turns around disappointed and glares at Lee with malice intent. The area now empty Lee's uniform fades to a more appropriate form.
Lee:" Jack. I don't understand why you fight at these illegal arena's even less that you would take a fall in one."
Jack:" I have my reasons". Jack walks past Lee and out of the arena to get his duffel bag. Lee gets an annoyed look on her face as she needs to turn around and walk after Jack.
Jack: "What was so important that you had to interrupt my fight?"
Lee:" I couldn't let you get injured. I need you to do a mission for me."
Jack with a, I couldn't care less smirk:" Really. and when would you like me to do your dirty work for you?"
Lee:" This isn't dirty work Jack. This comes straight from the Elder Watch. I need you to kidnap a girl and…"
Jack interrupts:" You know I don't work with kids."
Lee:" I know and I apologize. But you are the only one competent enough to complete this mission as you need to go with a caravan trough the forest and keep the child alive at all costs."
Jack:" Jaaaaagghhh" Rolling his eyes.
While paging trough a file, Lee:" I need you to go to Capital City and get the girl Io. She is a ten-year old with the ability to use Radiation Heka. You will need to join the caravan of smugglers going to flower City. At the Drakens burg you will leave the caravan and go to Snow City. There will be a female operative with the caravan. She will take care of the child but you will still be in charge of her safety at all times. The drop off point and other data are in the file." She hands the thick file to Jack and places her hands behind her back again.
Jack:" Radiation you say. Haven't heard of that Heka before. What can she do at stage one?"
Lee:" That is classified. She is the only one of her kind. This means she is also of interest to other parties. Be on the lookout for an ambushes on your way to Snow City."
Jack:" You mean the Illuminate also has an interest in this girl. Oh sorry, forgot you don't believe there is such an organization. Anyway, we should be fine when we are on the road. The caravans don't always take the same route."
Lee:" I'll see you back in Snow City in fifty-four days. Good luck Jack. "
Jack: "Thanks"
Lee: "A car is ready to take you to the train outside. Your bags are already packed and on the train. Here is your payment." She takes an envelope out of her jacket pocket and gives it to Jack. She turns away and leaves Jack to pack is things.
