Yet another criminal have been found dead. Authorities say that suspect is anomaly known as the mask but assure that there is no danger towards normal citizens... Michael turned off the TV, it had been busy day at coffeehouse but as the evening approached, customers had been leaving one by one and he was getting ready to clean up for closing.

 

He made himself a cup of iced-coffee and he sat down behind the counter, but before he could drink it, front door opened....

Marcus decided to stop by a nearby coffee house to get himself a coffee on a whim. He opened the door noticing he was one of very few there. He looked at the man behind the counter then at the menu. "A coffee black no cream or sugar if you don't mind." Marcus fished out the cash to pay for the purchase.

Michael greeted the new customer and grabbed the coffee pan "Coming Right up". He then gave the cup of coffee to Marcus and took the payment. He sat back down and started sipping his own drink. He then tried to start a conversation like he usually does when there is no too much a hurry. "It's been nice day today, weather haven't been too bad...."

"Yea it's been quite nice out lately." Marcus looked up at the TV a report on The Mask, some anomaly playing vigilante. Marcus did not really care about the whole ordeal, and why should he it was just another person playing hero, plenty did and they killed some criminals died then another came along they did nothing lasting. "Heh, seems like our Mask friend has struck another random criminal good for him."

"It seems so." Michael took another sip. "But I have heard that his targets are more than random criminals." "That they are those who are safe from police and such things for whatever reason." "Who they either can't or don't want to touch." "Rumor goes that he even killed someone in government."

"Seems he has quite the network then it is hard to strike government targets without at least some help magic bullshit or not. Still in his position I would try to keep a lower profile but eh who am I to say how to be a vigilante." Marcus took another sip of his coffee. "Anyway names Marcus."

"it's nice to meet you Marcus." Michael said "My name is Michael if you didn't already read my nameplate." his tone then turned little more serious. "Excuse my curiosity but it sounds like you aren't exactly a fan of Anomalies." "Or is it just this particular anomaly?

"Anomalies in general, I was in the army for awhile and after watching hostile Anomalies tear apart convoys without touching them, the winged ones and super strong Anomalies were much the same tearing up any careavan or platoon with no issue. Not fan of Anomalies is a understatement."

"That indeed sounds really bad." "I can see why you hate Anomalies so much." Michael said as he sipped more of his coffee. His voice was calm, like what he just heard didn't cause any kind of emotions in him. "We are lucky that those kinds aren't common sight here."

"Yes that is fortunate, you hear anything on the human purity or Anomaly cults it just seems they both have been quite lately. Odd for two spoken groups to keep quite honestly I don't like it." Indicus' mind flashed back to attacks on caravans before jumping back to reality.

Michael agreed. "Total silence sure is kinda worrying, there haven't been even any rumors as far as I know." "They might be planning something." "Because certainly they haven't just disappeared from face of the Earth." They were now only ones in the coffeehouse.

"Well it seems we're the only ones here so I guess it's about time to close." Marcus finished his coffee, before getting up. "Thanks for the conversation it was enjoyable. I'll have to stop by again been awhile since I had a nice café to go to when I wanted a coffee." Marcus started to walk towards the exit.

 "Glad that you enjoyed yourself. "It's always nice to have someone to have conversations with" "oh, and welcome back in the future."Michael said when Marcus took his leave and then, after finishing his own drink, proceeded to close the curtains from the windows.

Marcus walked back to the place he was staying curiosity of the army research division. He looked around himself the area so far clear of any thugs but he kept a eye out to be sure. The walk was very uneventful nothing actually happening though some part of him whished something did happen.

After all the curtains were closed, and door locked, Michael stood in middle of the room. He closed his eyes and made little movement with his fingers. When he opened his eyes, they were glowing red and cleaning equipment started cleaning around the café by itself.

Marcus arrived at his house without any issue. He unlocked the door and entered, the reasonably sized house was nothing special and quite bare on the inside a TV with a connected consul and computer, a couch and a coffee table in the center with some pictures on the wall here and there. Much of the house was the same as the living room some furniture, things for some sort of entertainment and a few pictures in a few places. Marcus ignored the TV and headed for a small room with some exercise equipment  and a punching bag hanging from the ceiling. Marcus went through his usual exercise pattern, lift, treadmill, pull ups, punching bag and record each activity.

Michael turned off the lights from the café area, and entered small living area behind it. There was all that was necessary, kitchen, bed, bathroom and little bit of extra space for television and such. He detached piece of the wall, revealing tall safe behind it, He put profit of the day in it and then proceeded to make food for himself.

 

After he finished eating, he cleaned the dishes, without actually touching them and went back for the safe. He took out a bag that contained black clothing, sword and a mask. He put the clothing and mask on, sword to his back and left the building after putting the piece of wall back where it belonged.

Marcus finished his routine and was left with very little to do so he sat behind his TV watching the news for awhile thinking about his next scheduled combat test and what the scientists would throw in just to see how he did. Then his mind went to the new Anomaly vigilante running around, a magic user or whatever the scientist called it.

 

His thoughts were still unchanged the Anomaly would have to do a lot to manage to make any real difference not just kill some untouchable criminals every night. Marcus decided to just take a walk not really minding how dangerous a given place would or wouldn't be. If he was attacked then so be it.

Michael was bored night, there wasn't any contracts for this night so he choose to look around to see if he could find anything in interest happening.  He wandered around for a while when he saw somebody walking little distance away. He noticed that person looked familiar but didn't see exactly who it was because of lack of light. He walked closer to him and spoke with cold tone. "You know it's dangerous here?, there is hostile Anomalies just waiting to get their revenge to anyone they see." Mask made his voice different from his normal voice making him unrecognizable.

Marcus laughed looking at the man dressed in black wearing a mask. "I know, the better question is how much do I care if hostile alnomalies attack. Another is how well can a hostile anomaly do against me, another thing I seek to find out." Marcus continued to walk down the street.

Michael grinned behind his mask. "I like your way of thinking" He said as he followed Marcus close by. "I'm not your enemy, but I would also like to know answer to your second question." Red glow appeared visible from the eye-holes of the mask "And I can help with that, if you feel like it."

(sorry did not see it till now)

 

Marcus smiled looking to see if there was anyone around and when he determined there wasn't he turned back to the masked man. "Okay if you want to spar,duel whatever you wish to call it then I accept. We can do it here seeing as there is nobody to get hurt." Marcus got into a fighting stance though a very lax looking one,  hands slightly open, a slight bend of the knees and arms and eyes tracking his opponents moves.

"Good, I just hope this isn't going to be too boring." Michael levitated two iron pipes from close by and threw one to give it to his opponent. "I name of fairness, I won't use my sword" "but unarmed fight would be too boring" Still holding his relaxed stance, he swung towards Marcus with the pipe.

Marcus shrugged, "Suit yourself." Marcus lazily dodged caught the man's arm and elbowed him in the gut before jumping back. A fluid set of movements that took place in a few seconds. "You'll find out I'm not average for a normal human so don't hold back." Marcus resumed his lax stance waiting for an attack.

Michael had already protected himself with armor like force field leaving him unharmed from Marcus' counter attack, but force caused him to back up few steps. "I see." He then stood straight and made a little movement with his fingers, causing everything that weren't nailed down or big enough to do damage to environment around them was lifted and shot towards Marcus.
