Dane knocked on the door of the victorian esc home. the home of a user he only knows about thanks to MacArthur's samples. "Hello? Are you joseph crux?" He asked the man who answered the door "uhh, yea, who are you and what do you want" the shotgun did not intimidate the doctor one bit. "Do you mind if i come in, i'd like to speak t you about something your trying to keep secret, and i don't have much time" He didn't wait for a reply and simply walked into the house uninvited.
As Dr. Clarke sat on the lounge his unwilling host sat opposite him "This is about your power, don't try and hide it from me, i know what you can do. You've been in Alkatraz haven't you?" The man seemed more than a little angered. "Yes i was. I was released when that group attacked. the cops have been watching me for weeks." "I'm sorry to hear that, i came to ask your permission" the mans face went from angry to confused "What for?"
"to use your power for my own personal research"
"into what? and how could i help you?"
"Please, tell me of your power and i think you'll figure it out" So the man told him, he could change which direction gravity was afftecting him, essentially he could change where ground was for himself. and he could effect how strong the attraction was. at this he began to lift into the air, beaming at his own superiority. "Well think about it? If it were possible to equip suits or galactic ships with your ability, the human race could explore the universe and alien planets with ease far greater than anything current technology could dream of" The man thought for a moment "I suppose your right, and i'd be a hero!" he landed softly back on the ground standing "sure! go for it! what do i need to do?"
"Wait here, sortly some of my associates will be around to collect a few what? blood samples? and that'd be it, hero" He left the house and trotted merrily down the street, the others probably wont be as easy to convince.
He sat on a park bench, apparently the one he was looking for would be along here any moment, smiling he discovered his sources were correct. "Well greetings, good to see your in good health..."

Rye walked down the street with peach, he had to get one since he was in Georgia. He flew down to Georgia. He felt later he would make a pit stop to North Dakota so he could see the forest when the new snow would hit. His boots clomped as he walked down the sidewalk of the park, he loved the park. It might be the dog in him that loved the free space. Rye saw a park bench and walked up to it, the man sitting there looked at him and smiled. Rye cocked his head to the left, "Do I know you bro?" he asked him

The man was very much like an animal, possibly due to his power, Dane could not be sure. “I don’t think so. You are Rye Blackfoot yes?” Dane held out his hand to the stranger “Name’s Dane, I’m a friend” He smiled warmly, trying his hardest to convey a peaceful caliber. When the greetings were complete he gestured the man to sit down ‘I’ve been waiting for you as a matter of fact, I would like to talk to you about something and I’ll cut to the chase if you’d let me” He looked at his watch, if he got permission from this one so many lives would be for the better. But it’d be hard even with the go-code from the original.
OOC: shiver, short post. thanks for post btw

Rye looked at him with weary eye's an slowly sat down. He took the man's hand his instincts were screaming that there was something off about this guy it made especially uncomfortable that the man knew his name before he even introduced himself. He took the mans hand, he felt Danes heartbeat increase with excitement. Why was he excited? Rye answered him warily, ''What is the offer?" he threw the pit in the trash and lit a Black and Mild and puffed the cigar.

Dane felt the electric buzz as the man took his hand, yes, he was right! This was the perfect power! As he sat down next to his bewildered guest he looked around at the people in the park. Oblivious, Carefree people. “You look at all those people, I bet when you see them you just see people don’t you? But when you see the dogs bounding around and the birds soaring overhead you feel a rush, a need to be part of it? I understand that, I’m somewhat like that too. I have a gift as well, not as tactile as yours but still a worthwhile one by any measure.” He looked at the smoker beside him and laughed inwardly, given the right help he could prevent people from ever getting cancer from smoking. “Have you ever heard of the Ridgway’s Hawk? It’s a critically endangered species, without help it could die out. Do you want to help save it?” Dane knew this sort of thing would interest the man, and he passed an image of the bird to his companion.

Rye puffed his cigar as he listened to the man, he felt a sudden flash of anger as this pain picked at his emotion. He felt he was being toyed with, his fist popped as it clenched. He took another puff of the Black and Mild. "Yes I have and what possibly do I have to offer them? I may be Native American but I'm not a medicine man." He blew out smoke hearing what Dane was going to say to him. Dane obviously knew more about him then he told anyone except for father Edmund.

The man was getting angry, that was obvious, probably because Dane was trying to help him understand “I’m not taking about magic, or voodoo. I’m talking science. There is no point me explaining, almost everyone is dumbfounded by the process, but basically a little of your blood is used to change bacteria so it can change itself into the hawk and breed faster than a normal ridgway’s, the offspring would be a proper chick even though the parents are not. If you understand what I mean.” He pulled a little box out of his pocket, he was glad the servo had at least one packet of Black and Mild, which he handed to the man with a warm hand. “Please, help me help dying species?”OOC: For a complete list of every endangered species visit www.earthsendangered.com/list.asp |

Rye eyes turned to little slits, "You want me to give blood to you? A man I don not know? And yet you know everything about me? My abilities, how to get at me through my emotions from my love for animals, down to the pack of tobacco I smoke." Rye Stood up and flicked the ash off of his cigar. "If you did your research as it appears, then you would know that my powers only work If I come into physical contact with the animal. I love animals I honestly do, but I feel if my DNA comes into contact with animals through experimentation or through sexual reproduction, there will be mutant human animal hybrids. I will not be a part of something like that. I am sorry Dane but I cannot help you." Rye put the butt in his pocket he didn't like littering in a park no less.
OCC: Thanks bro lol

Dane stood to face the man "I don't need your blood, I mearly request your permission to use your power, the offspring would be completely Ridgway hawk, no abilities or human DNA, only the parents would be freaks, bacteria with the capacity to save entire species. I know you don't trust me, you shouldn't trust me. i wouldn't. i'm simply stating that with your permission My collegues and I could save over 1800 species of endangered animals. These aren't naturally selected extinctions, the human race is wiping out all fauna on our planet!" some people in the park turned at the sound of dane yelling "the offspring will be fine. passing on the complete DNA rather thanmutant Data, it's simple genetics. are you going to pass up this opportunity? are you going to become part of the solution or the problem? Please?" Dane turned away, fuming. one lost cause, one more disappointment "You know? I did my research soas to make you feel like you had someone you could trust, but it backfired, thanks for the heads up, i won't do that in future"

Rye looked around and noticed people staring at them Rye in front of the man stopping him, "You want me to help you? Come back to me in a couple of days, bring me data that will prove to me that you are going to use my powers for good, like an alumni that you have asked to help you in the past. Maybe I will consider it. But not for you, I would do it for my animal brothers and sisters." He made sure to keep his voice down he didn't want attract anymore attention. He wanted to help animals but he didn't know if this guy was legit or not.

OOC: I was thinking this event was right before Rye meets Joshua.
Rye looked at Dane, " Listen I'll contact you do you have a number or something I can get a hold of you by or something?" Rye asked as he scratched the back of his head. "That way I can get a hold of you and plans can be arranged to meet."
