You hear some screams of fear and the sound of blood hitting a hard surface in the alley below you.

-
[b]He looks down at it[/b]
-
You see a man with a plain white mask wearing a business suit and gloves wiping the blood off a knife, multiple corpses next to him.
-
[b]Curious and intrigued, he watches him[/b]
-
I bend down and look at a corpse. "Ya know, it's a lot more fun to murder thugs like you than random people!"
-
[b]He jumps down, legs hurting from the fall, but his quick regenerating health fixes him up[/b] "Playing vigilante, or you just want his money?"
-
"Neither. It's just fun, that's all!"
-
"Amen to that. What's your kill count?"
-
"Oh I don't bother keeping track. I think these are my seventh or eight since I arrived here yesterday."
-
"Ha! I've got hundreds in around a one-week span"
-
"Ah, but was the kill real?"
-
"Very"
-
"Well, you have my respect." I perform a mock bow.
-
"And you got 3 snipers trained on your head. Now, how about we stop pissing around and you tell me who you are?"
-
I stop. "Friends call me B3B. Of course, I don't have any friends, so I just call myself B3B."
-
"Living a lonely life huh? You want to remove the mask?"
-
"Nope. This mask is like a second skin to me."
-
"You're about to not have any skin, now remove it. I've heard about your work in Neo Tokyo. Not bad"
-
I take the mask off, but it stops mid-air, floating in front of my face. "Ta-da."
-
[b]A sniper fires, hitting the mask away, and I look at your face[/b]
-
You see a fairly average face. "What, you think my face was anything special? I did it to hide my identity. Now can I put my mask back on now?"
-
"Go for it" [b]He says, gesturing to the mask, a bullet hole in the forehead[/b]
-
I pick it up. "Jeez, I had this thing custom-made. Not like I can get another, I killed the guy who made it."
-
"Well, at least you look more menacing, like you're undead"
-
"I prefer plain white." I put it on. "I'll have to find another mask maker now."
-
"Alright then, that's your problem" [b]He says, walking away[/b]
