[IC] Spliced

"I don't want to stay, I don't think highly of myself either. My brother and I are ifiots thank you for the refresher but we aren't dumb enough to take gun knowledge from another teen that only used ut for pettt murders. You aren't any better then Roxy. No offense Tony." Adamaris sighed as she looked between them and shook her head. "You are an idiot too, you act high and mighty. You are just too petty to admit it. I take pity on those of you who will never figure these things out. I also pride my flaws seeing as they are the things that make me different from you two jackasses."

[KatherinWinter]

"Silly child. Apparently you have had an easy life. Do you think I wanted to kill people? Do you think that as a child I lay in bed dreaming of murdering people? You shouldn't judge what you do not know. Did you bother to ask Roxy why she is so violent? Do you have any idea what drove me to commit my first murder?" Jade shook her head.

[CallaLily180]

"No, and I won't. That is what you don't realize, murder is murder. It doesn't matter what reasoning you havr you killed people with families. Do you think of what drove them to do the things they did? No. That is called killing in cold blood. That is always the case. I'm no child. I had a life that was just as hard as yours." Adamaris towered over Jade with a scowl. Ricelle walked over to them but only to back Adamaris up as he glared at Jade and smiled daggers.

[KatherinWinter]

"Really? There is no reason? What if someone is hurting you or a loved one?" Jade asked crossing her arms. "Have you ever been hurt so badly that you would do anything to make it stop?"

[CallaLily180]

"What do you think? Tell me though, do you really believe the dumb thugs were the ones that schemed and hurt your loved ones? They didn't! They were doing their jobs because like it or not they were probably forced to! I don't care how much you thought it would help you and your twisted Batman story it was wrong." It was Ricelle who spoke this time, his eyes bore ibto Jade's as he questioned her.

[KatherinWinter]

"I see. So if I were to attack your sister you would stand there and do nothing about it?" Jade asked with a smirk. "Because I doubt that. I imagine you would keep attacking until I stopped. Even if that meant killing me."

[CallaLily180]

Ricelle smirked, he shoved Ada in front if Jade's face and and his smirk grew wider. "Do it, I dare you." He whispered as Ada simply stood there and sighed.

[KatherinWinter]

Jade shook her head. It saddened her to see Ricelle treat his sister this way. "I see. I am sorry Adamaris. I thought your brother cared for you. I guess your family doesn't believe that love means protecting those you love. I never let anyone hurt my little sister."

[CallaLily180]

Ricelle shook his head and sighed, that wasn't how it worked. Adamaris just rolled her eyes and laughed. "He wanted to show off his moves, sorry." Ada punched her brother's shoulder and he punched hers until they started copying and hitting each other.

[KatherinWinter]

"He put you in harms way." Jade shook her head. "He's either an idiot or a jerk."

Vlad walks into the room. "Come alone Adamaris. Your brother needs to get ready to go. All of you gather at the elevator. Roxy will join you in a moment."

[CallaLily180]

"No he didn't, he was challenging you to prove a point. He is stupid as an act, he just wants to protect me." Ada said as she walked over to Vlad and waved Ricelle off with a big smile.

Ricelle put the star she had given him in his pocket and waved back with the same smile telling her their game wasn't over.

[Shiv]

Tony finally spoke up "Listen Adamaris, you too Ricelle. Given our current situation those who don't have any prior training should look into proper firearm safety and training it's just a suggestion. Don't look at it as a tool to protect or murder people. Look at this training as a way to gain a proper respect and knowledge about the tools that will be used against us during missions. I'm not trying to act high and mighty about this its just if you know a weapon and respect it your less likely to get hurt by it."

[CallaLily180]

Neither of them listened to Tony as they stared each other down and made strange and sudden movements to see how well they could copy each other. "Hey! Stop it!" Adamaris started as they both finished at the same time.

[KatherinWinter]

Roxy glared at the two in the hall. There were being so childish. Like their lives weren't on the line. How could they act like they were regular siblings? Like they were in a normal world. What world did they live in that they could play like that? She rubbed at her neck where the collar rubbed against her skin. Would they act differently if one of them was wearing it?

[Shiv]

Tony spotted the collar and called to Vlad "Get that thing off her neck, im not doing this mission under duress. If you can't trust us to do the mission without some form of bullshit then at least I am not going.We can't complete a mission if we are worried about our leader literally loosing her head."

[KatherinWinter]

Vlad shrugged. "Then don't go. You can keep Adamaris company. I don't trust you all to go on this mission and come back willingly. It is clear that Ricelle doesn't care about anyone even his sister. Maybe the threat of his own death will keep him in line."

[CallaLily180]

Ricelle sighed and Adamaris poked Vlad in the stomach, she looked down at him and frowned. "Vlad, it was one mistake. He will be good OK? He just isn't very sweet."

Ricelle slumped down with a heavy look of shame covering that always prideful face of his. "I'll be good Vlad, you can trust me this time."

[Shiv]

"Then put the damn bomb on me. Roxy can't lead with a clear head if she has to worry about loosing it. If an accident happens and I go boom, no big loss to leadership and Roxy will finish the mission and bring the rest back. You can trust her she will keep her word"

[KatherinWinter]

Vlad snorted. "A sharp shooter threatened your sisters life and you told her to go for it. I am not trusting you to behave simply because I have your sister hostage. Adamaris say goodbye. The rest of you are leaving as soon as the rest get here. I don't think so Tony. The team doesn't have as much to lose if you get killed. As you have just plainly stated."

[CallaLily180]

Ricelle sighed, if he had known that he would have acted much differently. Maybe paying attention to Vlad was important. "Then am I staying here? I would rather."

Adamaris sighed and simply folded a couple of things. "Bye."
