Six Days after Genesis Storm II

News stories on both TV and in print are continuing coverage of the murder spree in the mid-west, the most recent being one reported that morning: a 20-year old male in a rural are of Ohio found dead in his home. His chest had been surgically cut into and his heart removed. No DNA or clues to the killer yet, but this killing makes the third one this year in the same manner. Previous victims were a woman in Colorado, age 46, found with her heart removed in her office and a young girl, age 5, found in her bed the same way. No connections via family nor contact. Officials have yet to comment on the murders but have stated they believe them to be connected. Many have dubbed the culprit: "The Heartless."

Drulan had arrived at the ariport, he just neednt to find and pay a taxi driver to bring him to Calibur...... but his gut told him that they knew he was coming and that they seemed way to shady to trust however he had an advantage they probably didnt even know existed, his power, he just needed to glance one of them in the eye and then he could... exagerate it and neglect a few details so they will believe he has complete power over what they see and in that case it will be easy to get them to say what he wants..... he still felt very uneasy when he began walking, as if someone was watching him.

[Khina Bree]

Drulan was walking through Calibur's parking lot only a week and a day after the last storm. As late in the day as it was, the building seemed well-lit and bustling with employees.

A black car pulls into a space near the entrance and out steps a man in a black business suit with raven black hair and chilling blue eyes. He holds the car door open for another to exit, a man jeans, sneakers, a dress shirt loosely buttoned up over a graphic t-shirt and a tattered blazer. The raggedy man looked like he was in his thirties, but this boy looked to be maybe sixteen.

[Flip Flapper]

The men immediatly caught Drulan´s eyes, he pretended to not see them while walking towards the Calibur building, afterall he may just be paranoid, who knows, maybe they arnt even here for him? But then again... maybe they are and in that case he had to make sure they would never speak again, after a few seconds of thinking he decided to walk straight towards them
"Hey! Do you work here and if so do you know if mr. Grey is hear right now?"
Might as well get some answers from these people, he didnt trust them, peopel told him he was paranoid but that happens when your on the wrong side of the law.

[Khina Bree]

The young boy in the bespoke suit raised an eyebrow, "If you are looking for Mr. Grey, then please speak quickly. I am a busy man."

[Flip Flapper]

Drulan raised an eyebrow before laughing out loud
"Sorry i didnt realise he had a son, well pleased to meet you, your full name is?"

[Khina Bree]

"Son? I fear you are mistaken sir. I am Artemus Grey, CEO of Calibur Pharmaceuticals."

The man in the jeans folded his arms, which really showed off just how muscular this guy actually was. He looked like a slacker, but now appeared to mean serious business. His shaved head reflecting the parking lot light dully.

[Flip Flapper]

Drulan smiled before answering
"Sorry, you were much younger then i expected Artemus"
He reached out his hand to Artemus and they shook hands before he countinued
"So well i came here for a reason, i want to know why you sent me such a cryptic message, whats with all of the secrets? What do you want from me? And most importantly, why would you contact me? You seem to know an awfull lot to figure out where i was and i assume who i am, if you dont answer i´ll show you something funny, funny and horrible beyond your imagination"

[Khina Bree]

The slacker-muscle man popped his neck to both sides. Artemus shook hands abruptly, "I do not recall contacting anyone recently, Mr. Thenro, and may I suggest you not deliver such vague threats?"

The man in the jeans grunted in agreement.

[Flip Flapper]

Drulan raised an eyebrow before speaking
"Dont try to fool me Grey, your guy, Cal was his name, his hints led me to Calibur, since you refuse to tell me i have to do this....."
Drulan looked Grey right in his eye and used his power showing Grey real looking images of people getting cut up, instead of organs coming out it was snakes and many many other horrible illusions, Drulan was thinking he may be going a bit overboard and hoped it wouldnt be to much.

[Khina Bree]

"Fascinating, you threaten me and then choose to stare into my eyes like a madman. Domovoi?"

The man in the jeans grabbed Drulan by the arm, "Let's go pal."

[Flip Flapper]

Drulan´s eyes widened in shook
"How the hell did that not work on you! Your the first it hasnt worked on! Hey explain now Grey! This isnt over!"
He turned to the man who grabbed his arm
"This is between me and Grey"
He tried to shove the man aside but his grip held fast
"Wait Grey! How about we do this in a more civil maner, i do something for you and you give me my answers? How does that sound?"

[Khina Bree]

"That sounds like the pleas of a desperate man. Escort him off the premises Domovoi."

Domovoi nodded and forcefully moved Drulan, "Let's go Mr. Thenro."

[Flip Flapper]

Drulan was getting desperate, he needed to get his answers he didnt know how....
"Wait! I have uh.... i have..."
It felt stupid to try to convince this guy, he would only seem more insane then before but he needed to do anythign that might gain Greys attention
"I have a gift, i can tell you all about it if you want, i demand nothing in return except that you listen to what i have to say"

[Khina Bree]

Without another word, Drulan found himself tossed by the man called Domovoi out of the parking lot and onto the sidewalk.

"Mr. Grey isn't interested," he said in his gravelly tone.

[Flip Flapper]

Drulan got up and started walking off
"Like hell he isnt, he wouldnt have sent that cal if he wasnt.... wait a minute..."
Suddenly it hit him, Cal only hinted towards Calibur, NOT its CEO, Drulan smiled and promised he would return tonight

[Khina Bree]

Domovoi crossed his arms, "I work the graveyard shift. I look forward to your next visit."

Current time: 8 pm

[Flip Flapper]

(sorry if i was very vague but i meant he promised himself quitly to return but meh, lets just roll with it)

Drulan smirked
"Aww, come on i think your a great person Domvoi, but now that i think about it i dont need to return, well see you some other time i hope and oh also one final thing, say hello to everyone from me"

[Khina Bree]

"Yeah, I'll get right on that," the well-muscled man was dripping with sarcasm.

[Flip Flapper]

As Drulan was walking away he was thinking about what just happened.
How the hell did my power not work? Could it be.... as i see it there are 2 possible ways, either he also has a gift that takes out mine..... or he knows!
Drulan mentally facepalmed when he realised the latter, he had been so stupid to try to confront Grey this directly, he needed to be smarter from now on and most of all he needed to make sure no one followed him from now on.

Mikey arrives to an apartment complex in Odessa Texas. The complex seems nice has a community pool, a lake for fishing, tennis court, there's even a park inside the apartment complex. "This place is nice." The teens says to his limo driver.

"Yeah, alot of Calibur employees live here." The driver says non-nonchalantly. The car strolls up to the corner where Mikey's apartment was located. "Well there is were we part ways. My boss told me to tell you that your apartment number is 403."

"Top floor, huh." The teen looks up at the apartment building where he lived from the limo. Each apartment seemed to be large from the outside. He begins to step out from the limo and turns to the driver. "Thanks for the ride, sir."

The driver nods and drives away. The raven-haired youth heads towards his apartment and pulls out the key he was given when he arrived to the city. He places the key in the keyhole and begins to turn it. He opens the door and his eyes widen.

The apartment was humongous. His kitchen had start the art oven, refrigerator, and microwave. His cabinets and pantry were previously stocked with tons of food, both healthy and junk. He then checked the living room. It had a black leather sofa, 2 metal end tables on each side of the couch, a large metallic coffee table in front of the sofa, and a flat screen t.v. with a blueray player. The excited teenager checked the hallway, it had a single bathroom and 3 bedrooms. One of the bedrooms seemed to be a basic guestroom and the room adjacent to it was filled with various metal objects, ranging from simple house hold tools to swords to simple housewares. "It seems Mr. Grey wants me to train my ability with my spare time."

Then the teenager turned his attention towards the room at the end of the hallway, The Master Bedroom. The room contained a queen size bed, a desk, a closet already filled with cloths ranging from his signature red sleeveless jacket, short sleeve black t-shirt, and jeans to a few suits and and dress shirts. "Damn, they spent a lot of money on this place. I feel extra pressure to make sure I perform well."

The Teen then heads to the room with various metal objects and trains his ability reforming various metal objects into new metallic creations.
