Mako was walking along in neutral territory where he happened upon a scene that he didn't see very often. A full building. barely damaged. Mako took a moment to look at it, it was very interesting. So naturally he sat there for a moment staring at the building when he got this wierd feeling that he was being watched...

OOC: Also I may have to alter a few destinations as territory lines are not quite specific. For now these are cannon anyone disagrees please pm me.
IC:
"You bastards!" the slim dark man yelled as he and ten others chased a group of five or six down the streets of neutral territory. The group were moving extremely fast especially for men running on foot, however there seemed to be one among them who would glide across the ground. Their tall leader was a man who held his pride in his speed. "Move men, damn you!" Jack roared, as they burst out of Barker territory and back into neutral territory.
The reason they were in Barker territory to begin with was so they could lose the group who were pursuing them, but it only made matters worse as they ran into trouble in Barker territory also and on top of that bumped into those who were chasing them as soon as they got out of Barker territory.
"Keep up lads few more kilometers!" Jack roared his battle hardened voice easily beating the wind. The group turned north west and headed straight for the narrowest strip in The God's territory. Easily clearing it within a matter of minutes they continued to run toward their home base of operations in the Huntington, Vernon region.
"Captain! Continue forward with the hostage" Jack tossed the girl who was bound and being carried in his arms to his captain "Francis and Conrad, should I fall you are to cover their retreat! Invictus move out!" They all knew to follow his orders in battle to do anything but would invoke the full brunt of his wrath. Jack drew his two weapons and readied himself for the onslaught. The Australian's pace dropped as he allowed his men to pass him and move toward the modest building off into the distance.
Within ten minutes of running deep into Deorc Veritas territory the group would come within eye shot of the Mercenary Head quarters and training facility. As the group grew closer they would pass Mako who was lurking in the shadows. None of them seeing him did not take any notice but instead passed the building Mako was looking at and continued further into the territory toward Leimert Park.
A unique sound was omitted by some unknown devices and the sound was returned. Shortly after the group vanished within a large door at the front of the UEI college complex which had since had a very large wall built around it. The building in question that Mako however was looking at was the Hunting Park, Pacific Center Shopping Center. Which had since been broken in parts and rebuilt it was one of the major areas of commerce within the immediate region so for some seeing it for the first time may have been quite a shock.
Here Jack burst into view of Mako, six men hot on his trail. Their blood boiling at the loss of not only the female but also of four comrades who had been cut down by Jack.
Suddenly the man stopped running and turned to face the men chasing him, he had bought his own men enough time to get back to HQ safely. Now in the middle of the night under a full moon Jack's true self would be unleashed. "Come and meet your deaths" Jack's voice carried across the abnormally wide and empty road. The men slowed down at first unsure of what to do next.
"Unleash" Jack said in a low yet hard voice as his mace uncoiled itself and expanded into a morning star. The large male stalked forward building up speed with each step until he was at a full blown sprint. Rushing into the group he swung his flail around like a mad man, beating them back away from him. While his cleaver sliced limbs in half as if they were butter. It didn't take long before six men lay dead before him, his own face and person covered in the blood of the fallen. He cleaned his face using a cloth he had in the pocket after he clipped his weapons back to his belt.
Somewhere unknown to Jack several of his subordinates were stalking through the territory in response to a tip that someone of a very large height and build was moving through the territory. Instead of an army being raised three Intelligence Division initiates stalked their target and observed him from a distance.
OOC: Sorry it took me so long to reply I got most of it up. I still have to finish the fight but I've run out of time. Thanks for waiting mate.

ooc: no worries, just send me a message on skype saying "tag" whenever you've posted, that way i can keep up with our threads.
IC: "well...that was....interesting." Mako said as he stared at jack in amazement, he had never seen someone cut someone down like that before, freaking cool!
Not over-willing to introduce himself, but also hesitant to let someone this powerful go on without noticing Mako was unacceptable. Mako would walk over to jack. "Hi there. You look exhausted, and i happen to have a fresh bottle of water on me." Mako reached behind him and pulled out a perfectly sealed water bottle. "Here, you look like you could use this a hell of a lot more than i could." Mako said offering it to the man.

The first thing Jack did when he saw this new person approach was look up, the man towered even over Jack by a good foot maybe even more. In truth Jack was as dumb founded by Mako as Mako was impressed by Jack. Didn't people like him even exist, then it hit him that cold feeling inside only one man stood this tall. ARK! Jack raised his weapons up ready to fight this new man to the death.
"Name yourself!" Jack yelled when the man got close enough.
OOC: Assuming here Mako introduces himself
IC:
"Toss it" Jack said at last in a monotone harsh voice. He clipped his cleaver back to his belt and outstretched his hand to catch the bottle if it was thrown.
When Jack caught the bottle he would unscrew it using his right thumb and index finger holding the cap against the bottle as he lifted it up and took a drink without letting it touch his mouth. He finished half the bottle instantly using another quarter to wash his face. Forcing the cap back onto the bottle without screwing it Jack tossed it back to Mako.
"Thank you for the water friend, my name's Jack O'Connor" it was a certain unwritten law growing up so it was now expected of Jack that he return the favor to this stranger. "What can I do to repay you for the water?" His voice cold, deep and dark. It expressed his total lack of care for the world, his contempt for those within it and most of all his hunger to kill.

"Mako, The wanderer" He replied.
"Toss it" Mako tossed the water bottle over to jack as he watched jack finish off half the damn bottle! he must have been thirsty...
"Well if you feel repayment is completely necessary...tell me how you took down 6 men without ever recieving a scratch." Mako said eager to know. No one he knew from high school could ever possibly do that.... Not even Mr.Crace...

He smirked, this was nothing he thought, maybe this wanderer never attended #259? No it's very possible. Jack sighed as he cracked his neck, allowing him a moment of rest to gather his thoughts to best answer this large man's question.
"Do you strain yourself when you step on ants?" he opened ups his arms and presented his palms to Mako, his cleaver in one hand and the other one empty. It was merely a hand gesture. "They are weak and I am stronger but like a horse can be taken down by an Army of ants, we few who possess strength beyond that of the common man can still die."He answered only a portion of the man's question if he wanted to know more he would need to ask more.

"When you say more than a common man..." Mako would start. "...What do you mean exactly, what is it that you have that no other man has that makes you so much stronger."

"Desire, drive, arrogance and self respect?" Jack laughed "The list is endless I am strong because I am strong. They" He said as he kicked the corpse of one of his victims, loving the wet sound it made as his boot hit the bag of meat. "Are weak because they're weak. An ant will never be a bull and a bull will never be an ant."
He knew that this wouldn't be enough so he continued "From a young age I have always fought people stronger than I. I have risked my life daily, overcame those who should never have been overcome and at the end of it all I am still an ant to those who are bulls."

"Did you go through some kind of training to be that way?" Mako was practically digging for the answer now, this could benefit him later.

"I fought a lot of people and honed my craft over many years. Is it anything more than beyond that? How does anyone become good at anything in life."
He sighed "Some of us are born with it some of us train for it but an ant will never be a bull, Mako work out which one you are an ant or a bull? Only then will strength matter, only then will you be free. Even an ant in numbers will overcome the strongest bull."

"I like to think i am a bull, but i know i'm not the strongest one out there. Could i convince you to teach me what you know?"

"About seven blocks that way" Jack pointed the way the group earlier ran through "Is a building, that building is the head quarters of my mercenary group who operate out of this territory. Come by and see me tomorrow and I'll see what you're made of." Jack turned around to walk away "Until we next meet, Mako" With that he turned and jogged toward his headquarters.
