Jumper

"No." he said, reaching for the handle.

 

He opened the door a little, just so he could see who it was. "Can I help you?" he asked.

 

Krystaline felt her face heat up a bit and she glanced over her shoulder at him.

 

"My name is Alphono," he said putting his foot in the door, "I have buiessness propsition for you Mr..."

 

"My name is Joseph, but people call me Joe." he said.

 

OOC: Night night for now.

"Well I'm going to get to the point. I know you and this girl are jumpers," Alphono said, "don't run or I'll take it as a no to my propsal."

 

"Jumpers?" he asked, trying to sound like he had no idea what the guy was talking about. "What's a jumper?"

 

Krystaline's eye narrowed defensively and she took a step back towards Holden instinctively.

 

OOC: Missed the action. ;;

BIC: Norah's eyes widened and her jaw almost dropped as she saw three jumpers, not one but three, disappear. There's more of us here? All this time, she thought she had never seen another jumper in the city. She had heard that there were others like her, but never guess that there would be so many in the same place.
Lost in her thoughts, Norah missed a golden opportunity as they're jump scars gradually vanished.

 

"Mr. Joe if you keep this up I'll leave I'm on a time clock. And I won't hesitate to turn in all the info on you," Alphono said.

 

"I have no idea what you're talking about." he said. "But what is this proposition?"

 

"I willing to offer you protection if you do some jobs for me," Alphono said.

 

"What kind of jobs?" he asked.

 

Krystaline stayed silent, gawking at Joe. He's...considering this...? She shook her head and huffed in irritation, placing a hand on her hip. She turned, facing Holden and whispering.
"I don't trust him." She stated bluntly, blinking her eyes once.

 

"Simple you use your jumping powers to get me money but you'll have to make it look like a normal robbery," Alphono said, "if you don't want to the Palidins will be inforemd about you and these two."
