Looking for talented thief's

Postby Zoey » Sat Apr 21, 2012 11:52 am

In a cafe somewhere in a strangely calm day in Muffinville. A man sits on a table outside with a newspaper. In said newspaper has been an A.d. for talented people in the art of... being stealthy and incognito. Its been there for almost one weeks now and today is the day that it says that all interested can come to this exact cafe where he is for more details on the... job.

Dave Ocean, the man who put up the ad and renown else where master thief sits on the table and reads casually the paper with his associate Jenna. He seems pretty calm being in the open, but then again he's never been caught before. When he flips the paper he see's his prize: The new minivan sized emerald to be displayed in the Muffinville museum. He wants to steal it so bad... but unfortunately two people aren't enough for a job that complex... he needs a team and hopefully today, he'll have his gang of thief's.
"Let me confirm, your shelter shield is activated?"
"What are you planning?!"
"Your shelter is secure, is it?"
"Of course it is! Just see for yourself how powerless you are!"
"...Roger that."

Jenna West was sat at the table with Dave. She looked to be around sixteen or so, with black hair pulled into a high ponytail, that had streaks of pink highlights snaking through it. A baggy black hoodie hung over her torso, long enough to almost conceal the short, and fairly snug-fitting navy blue skirt that wrapped around her thighs, with a pair of dark tights covering the rest of her legs, and a pair of black canvas sneakers with white rubber toecaps sat over her feet. While Dave read his newspaper, she was going over piles and piles of typed up notes.

Felix marches up to the table, pulls out a chair and plops down, smirking at the pair.

"Yo~ You the ones who put that ad in the paper?"

Jenna took a moment to breather gaze away from her notes, not looking up until a few seconds after Felix had sat down and spoke. She eyed him, seeming thoroughly unimpressed. Shaking her head, she slouched back in her chair and looked across to Dave, "Still think that was a good idea?", she asked with the sort of weariness that suggested she had been against the advertising from the start.

Dave leaned to his right of the large newspaper he was reading. He glanced at the two, before folding over his newpaper and leaning up, putting his elbows on the table. "Ah, yes. Indeed we were" he says sounding pretty warm and enthusiastic. "Maybe I ask your name and abilities... also why you would like to join?" he asks, as he rubs his chin as he watches intently at Felix. Dave completely ignores Jenna apart from an eyebrow raised he gave her when he folded his newspaper.

Just then a man walks towards the cafe. He is wearing a impeccable black suit, has short black hair and piercing blue eyes. He looks over the assembled group... as if sizing them up.

Jenna reacted with a little more urgency to the man in the black suit than she had to the cat boy. Almost as soon as he had laid eyes upon the group, she was gazing back at him. Flashing him a questioning glance, she tilted her head slightly to one side...

Danny walks up to the table, reading the newspaper calmly. "Let's see here... I should be around fifteen minutes early..." He closes the paper... and sees everybody else around the table. "...I'm not early, am I?"

"Well, I'm pretty fast and sneaky when I wanna be, part cat you know? And I'm pretty handy in a scrap, so if we end up having to fight, I can be the muscle." Felix says, folding his arms.

"So what's the job anyway?"

Dave raises another eyebrow at Felix. "I see... we'll you can stay for now" he says before turning his attention first to the well suited man. "Can I help you, gentleman?" he asks putting the paper down, turning the chair and putting his ankle over his other knee as he leans back. He then turns to the tardy member. "Same thing as I said to cat boy over there, gentleman. Skill and name... also, neither of you have told me why you want in this job..." he says still pretty casual. He motions to Jenna. "Could you check out the coast, sweety. I think we're almost done here" he almost whispers to her.

The man in the suit returns Jenna's gaze dispassionately... before turning his gaze to Dave. With a fluid gesture, he removes a silver container from inside his suit jacket, flipping it open to reveal racks of cigarettes... before taking one out and returning the case. With a flip of an engraved lighter, the white cylinder is ignited and placed between the man's lips.

Finally, he speaks... his words punctuated with the curling of smoke. "Your advertisement claimed you were seeking men of talent. I believe my talents would prove advantageous to you."

Dave chuckles at Felix's response. "Honest man, I like it" he says before turning his head to the finely dress man. He smiles as he watches his display. "I hope when we're officially a team, you will learn to share.... Mr?..." he says trying to get the name of the man.

"Ah... right." Danny nods, once. "I'm Danny, and I'm talented in staying out of the light, parkour without equipment, and relatively silent takedowns. Unfortunatly, I somtimes jump in time... or something..." He frowns. "It's very annoying. And I'm here to make sure my skills are still up to par, get used to work in this..." He takes a moment, thinking about how to define Muffinville. "...place, I need to make sure I can still do stuff with the ocasional- make sure I can still do stuff with the ocasional jump in time, and, yeah, money." He nods towards Felix. "Money is always good."

Jenna's eyes narrowed at Dave, "I told you to stop calling me sweetie...", she said as she rose from her chair and placed a hand on his shoulder and leaned down to whisper. "You better make sure we're not recruiting any moles... I've worked too hard to be caught out by a stupid mistake".

Looking at the possible recruits, she shook her head before moving away from the tables outside the cafe, and made the short walk down to the corner of the street. After observing for a minute or two, she turned to look back up the street and gave a thumbs up signal.
