Mantis listened to the woman intently verifying her emotions with his ability. He was quite sure she was telling the truth, but felt she wasn't revealing everything about the situation. He thought to himself, [color=green][i]"How did she manage to beat her attacker unconscious after getting knocked off her bike? On top of that," [/i][/color]he reasoned, [color=green][i]"She looks and feels completely fine. No twinges of pain at all."[/i][/color] 

Before he could mention this, Farce stood [i]in between[/i] Mantis' weapon and the woman. He begrudgingly lowered his sidearm away from her. [color=green][i]"She'd better have a good reason for this,"[/i][/color] he thought angrily. She mentioned the woman's sweet bike, which Mantis had to admit was [i]very[/i] nice. She commented something about evidence left on the scene. Judah agreed once more nodding, [color=green][i]"She's going to have to come clean."[/i][/color] Then, she did something that was unthinkable to the masked man. She actually [i]dropped[/i] her weapon and motioned Mantis to do the same.

Judah shook his head as he implanted a thought into Farce's mind, [i][color=green]"What if she takes us out the same way?"[/color][/i] He strafed to the side of the twin so that he had clear sight of the woman. They still didn't know what she was capable of. Mantis kept his weapon down but it was not holstered. He spoke directly too her very bluntly, [color=green]"How are you uninjured after falling from a moving motorcycle and getting assaulted? I see your jacket is damaged, but you look ready to get back on a drive off. That is [i]very[/i] unnatural,"[/color] he smiled under his mask as he said it. Could she be another vigilante? She was gorgeous and to top it off drove a killer bike. You wouldn't find a profile like that on e-harmony any day of the week. Not that Mantis went on sites like those or anything..

Then Mantis implanted a thought into the mystery woman,[color=green][i]"I'd better come clean. They know I'm uninjured."[/i][/color] If it went as planned, she would explain everything shortly.
