The man cloaked, followed by a grunt and the sound of grappling.
Then, there was silence and the man was no where to be seen

"Ah I see how it is" Cylus says. Q... [quote]Already on it. Heartbeat sensor online.*[/quote] Cylus reloads his weapons and extracts the bullet from his sleeve. [quote]Located*[/quote] A holographic figure appears in Cylus' helmet. He quickly throws a smoke gernade in its direction, and uses his grapples to swing to it. Bursting through the smoke, his knee makes contact.
-
It smashed directly into the man's chest, who audibly laughed as he struck a knife into Cylus' hip, stumbling back from the blow
-
Cylus rips the knife out of his hip, grunting. He shot some of his grapple launchers microbes into the wound, significantly slowing the bleeding. [quote]*Try not to go in so close next time* Q says sarcastically[/quote] Cylus turns to his opponent and glares. He can feel his bloodlust coming over him, and he fights yo hold it back. He pops out his arm blades and charges. He first shoots one grapple around the titans leg, and then another on a nearby tree branch. He swings above the titan, dropping a grenade at his feet. As it detonated, he pulled the grapple on the titan's and swung him at the base of the tree.
-
The grenade went off, but with the sudden grapple, it didn't cause much damage besides blowing some ground into the air. The man flew towards the tree, only for him to disappear, entering phase run mode. Several seconds later, he reappeared right In front of Cylus and landed a hard punch to the newcomer's jaw, followed by a swift kick to Cylus' knee. It brought Cylus down, and soon after the man had a knife to Cylus' throat, breathing heavily. "You fight well." The man said, backing up a few feet and sheathing the blade. "You have passed the test"

"Just like that?" he asks [quote]*That seems to be what the test is* Q says sarcastically. *Even though he [i]was[/i] kicking your -*[/quote] "Enough Q." Cylus says. He removes his helmet and hood, looking at the titan. "One last question." he says. "Where the hell can I get tech like that?"
-
"The Frontier Militia, or the IMC after you become a Titan Pilot." The man responded, crossing his arms over his chest
-
Edited by BondyMilk: 4/18/2017 2:32:37 PM"Ah," Cylus says. "And how would one inquire about joining said Militia?"
-
"You want to join?" The man asked, his blue visor eyeing Cylus
-
"What if I did?" "I'll have to learn more."
-
"The Militia is a makeshift army that was made up of farmers, businessmen. People you wouldn't expect really. They formed to combat the IMC, who's dictatorship seeks to exploit the resources of planets that belongs to the Militia"
-
"I see. And I [i]assume[/i] that they are thought highly of within the dojo."
-
"Not exactly. The dojo Is being used by the Militia to expand on our fight against the IMC, a beachhead of sorts. Nothing more, nothing less."
-
"And what's your standing?"
-
"I'm with the Militia, Second in Command of the Brigade is here."
-
"Who are the other members here in the dojo?" Cylus asks
-
"Pilot Jack Cooper, and a number of grunts as well as pilots."
-
"And I assume I will start as a grunt? And last question, do we have any alliances?" Cylus asks
-
"Yes we do. We have an Alliance with the Alliance, Quarians, Geth, and the Turians. We also have an alliance with a mercenary crew, by the name of the Invictus." The man responded, nodding "And yes, you start off as a grunt. But giving your fighting capabilities you might move up the ranks quicker."

Edited by BondyMilk: 4/18/2017 5:22:04 PMCylus grins, his first in quite a while, as he extends his hand. "I'm in... but I don't think I ever caught your name." he says. "What should I call you?"
-
"Call Me Marker." The man said, shaking Cylus' hand with a firm grip
-
Cylus shakes Marker's hand. "Sounds good," he says. "I've always said you can't trust a man without a name." He raises an eyebrow. "So when can I start?"
-
"You can start whenever you're ready. Hell we can start right now."
-
"I'm listening. How do we do it?" he asks
-
"You'll start as grunt, so we can work on some of the more basics aspects of it. Your aim, speed, strength. Physical test basically."
-
"I'm down," Cylus replies. "Where do we do this?"
