Under New Ownership (Open to all)

The girls with Raith giggle, "We'll let you figure that one out for yourself, darlin."

As the girls lead Raith to the inevitable destination, where he will undoubtedly be met with armed men, (Though thats up to Black Jack), Ten walks up to Terry. The huge guy looks down at the time traveler and holds out his hand.

"Hey man, you look like you're new around here. The names Sherman. how ya doin?" Should Terry shake Ten's hand.. He'll find the man has a pretty close to unbreakable grip. It would take some kind of intense super strength to get him to let go. Additionally the big guy doesn't even seem to notice standard punches and kicks against him, like they don't effect him at all. Not even groin shots do anything to him. Further, the moment Terry would realize he can't let go, Ten would begin dragging him towards the same room Raith was just taken, moving as unstoppably as an avalanche.

Terry watched as the huge guy from before approached him, holding out his hand, and saying he looked new around here. He introduced himself as Sherman, asking how he was doing. Terry just gave him a glare, leaving his hand in the air in front of him.

Yeah, I'm new. We already met. You knocked my friend down while trying to look cool as you went to the back.

Terry's gears were spinning. The big guy goes to the back, they're suddenly approached by two hot twins...what were the odds of that? He knew he was alright as far as looks went, and so was Raith. And now the big guy was approaching him. This stunk of a setup.

So. Whaddya want?

"Hey.. he walked into me. Not my fault he's a pansy." He shrugs his wide shoulders and moves to walk away. "But hey.. if you don't want to be friends.. I guess I'll just go into the backroom and break your buddies legs."

Wait.. what? Did he really just say that? He sounds so.. nonchalant about it as well, like that kind of violence is second nature to him. More than that, this guy gives off the impression of someone who COULD do it, with no feeling.. or even any real effort.

Carlo watched the entire scene from his perch, and a smile crossed his face as he saw Ten work. "Oh very clever kid, I thinks you and me is gonna get along great" he said as he made a hand motion to one of his men who nodded and spoke into a radio mike. As he did, several of his men suddenly came up form behind Ten and backed him up, but giving him enough room and space to move if he needed too.

"Sorry Kid, but your little friend made a mess in the bathroom and our boss wants to know why? He don't like it when people get bashed in the face in his club, bad for business you see and in our line of work, businees is everything. Now you can make this very easy or hard. The civilized way is that you come up stairs with your buddy and just epxlain what happened, if you was defending yourselves, then you get to leave here no quesitons asked. The hard way is that we have our new large and very scary friend here drag you and your friend up there in very small pieces and you can explain in a body cast. Your choice kid, now what's it gonna be?" one of the thugs asked as several men opened thier coats and revealed various meleel wepaons and fire arms while backing up Ten.

Raith looked at the girls in shock, but then realized what was happning and smiled.
I choose... Briefcase number one!
He said as he did a backflip and shook his coat off revealing his large angelic wings. John the put his arms out and shot stunning amounts of fire at the thugs.
Sorry to tell you is Beyond, but the only reason I agreed to even look in this place's direction was for a sting operation!
He said smiling at Terry.

Sherman said that it wasn't his fault John was a pansy, and said that if he didn't want to be friends, he could just go break John's legs. Terry's eyes narrowed. Did they really have him? It would take a lot more than some manpower to keep him down. Terry decided to keep Sherman and the various henchies around him distracted, as it seemed most of the regular people in the club were now making their way out. Bad situation.

Yeah? Well, it's not his fault you're a lowlife!

One of the men apologized and said their boss didn't like it when people at the club got hurt, and that it was bad for business. He said the easy way was to go upstairs and answer their questions, and the hard way was to get beat up. Before Terry could say anything, Wraith flipped into the air and attacked all of the armed men confronting Terry, saying he only invited Terry so they could sting it.

Don't you like how the "hard way" always involves them getting beat up?!

While the men were distracted, he moved forward, flipping over two of them and grabbing the backs of their suits, and when he landed, pulled them along with him to bring them to the floor. He was wearing part of the suit underneath just in case bad things happened. He started taking out the other men as well as the fight broke out, keeping an eye out for Sherman.

All this stuff takes time.. Flipping through the air grabbing guys shooting. That all takes a lot more time than one would think. Now when the adrenaline gets going and confusion sets in things seem to happen a lot faster than they are, and granted things happen fast.

But in a situation like this there is no reason for someone like Ten to get confused or have an adrenaline spike. He is in absolutely no danger that he can perceive, nor does he care about the thugs in the room to want to waste time trying to protect them.

Instead he just calmly walks over, bullets thudding into him from various angles, though it would appear like he's not being shot at all since he gives no reaction to it, and as Terry slams the two men to the ground he reaches out with both hands to try to grab the youth around the neck, his enormous hands wrapping completely around it.

His grip is neigh unbreakable, though he only will apply enough pressure to let Terry know he could snap it with ease.

"Don't know. Don't get beat up too often."
