Thread: Bounty Hunters Part II: The New Era

"Wish I was here when I actually needed to recuperate." Jack said dryly.

"The human body is a curious thing." Jason pointed out before he began to lead the group higher up into the mountain. Klay could see more of the butterflies flying around as well as people that seemed to be taking part in other treatments such as massages. He also noticed some of the clinics and hospital buildings; though they weren't visited as much. 'Before you ask, the actual hospitals are only used for people with severe life threatening injuries, other than that these treatments can pretty much take care of it."

"Well I can imagine why you said it would be expensive to come her often." Klay pointed out while looking around. They eventually stopped in front of a small gathering of huts, each one set up so that they would all be forming a circle.

"You guys go find a place ot sit and I'll get us some food." Klay looked out at some of the fields curiously while Jason spoke. There seemed to be some kind of green colored crystals coming out from the grass, their gleam and shine causing them to leave a green wake.

"That's Stardust is a special kind of crystal that only grows here." Jason answered. "Stardust has the function of healing any wounds, both shallow and deep and can be applied to anything and in multiple ways, drinks, even foods and seasoning as well." he explained. "I would take some back to your base if I were you." he said before he wen tot get the group some food.


"Okay guys so I wanted to talk to you about something." Klay said, putting his head over his hand adn beginning to scan the members of the group. "It's about your recruitment and the reason you guys have been going on specific missions with us."

Jack did his best to look disinterested, but he was slightly curious as to what Klay was about to say about each of them.

Jakku sat down next to Klay.
He was wearing a t-shirt and jeans, and seemed visibly uncomfortable in comparison to his usual attire.

Shimo frowned.
You want to investigate?

"You each signed up to the Slayers out of your own will that is true." he began speaking while looking at each one of them. "After we had received your sign up sheets we became interested in you guys, analysing your pasts and your abilities we figured something out." he was quiet for a moment, mostly cause he wanted to add a little more tension to the situation. "We figured that your experiences as skill users, your control of your abilities and your growth was all in a different ranking, for that reason me and the elder members decided that we would take you on missions to examine your roles, that is also why we haven't shown our real strenght and have been fighting against smaller opponents, it was a test of sorts."

"I wouldn't mind." Tink shook his head. "Let's go to the back of the place."

Jack raised an eyebrow. He was curious as to what their real strengths were.

"Well now I just feel self-concious," joked Brine. "Aw come on man now you're just pushing our egos, and some of us have egos too big to begin with." Brine then mouthed 'him' while jerking his thumb pointed towards Jack.

Mark shrugged at what Klay said.

'I can control my Psi fine. I control it better then I control myself. I think the neck scars are proof of that.'

Brine turned to Mark, "Say, you gonna look in to see if the doctors can fix that here?"

"It's not ego when it's justified." Jack remarked.

'Does a soldier ask to get rid of his battle scars?' Mark telepathed glaring at Brine.

"Chicks dig scars after all." Jack noted telepathically for the other PSI users present.

"So you admit you have an ego," retorted Brine jokingly, "And what's with the glaring, it's not like I insulted you, I asked a normal question." Brine then went back to replying to Jack, "Then this is gonna be one HELL of a chick magnet!" Brine indicated the crater in his chest and abdomen.

"Hey, aleast you don't have to strip down" Stephanie said to Erika before looking at Brine. "What does my sexuality have to do with me not wanting to strip down?" Stephanie questioned, it wasn't answered as she got out and placed a black shirt and blue jeans feeling more comfortable now.

Going with the group and sitting down to eat she listened to what Klay had to say. "So wait, the Queen of the bugmen and the Undeads were smaller opponents? Because I got to tell you, especially for the former it wasn't exactly a easy fight" Stephanie remarked, remembering how long the battle with the Queen lasted, and she had almost fallen onto her knees. However with the Undeads to be fair, she had gotten soaked by water and easily weakened, so that could be blamed on that.

'Trust me with what came along with these scars it was an insult either way.' Mark telepathed.
