The walk back to the warehouse was cut short as Connor stopped halfway to the door. His eyes and fingertips sparked briefly as a smile formed across his lips. Mutant's usually had a certain scent about them that Conduits could sometimes pick up, this was most definitely one of those times.<br/><br/>"You know you guys are only good at sneaking up on helpless citizens, right?" Connor surveyed the area, but no one was there.<br/><br/>"Either come out now, or I force you out...you're choice." Seconds later two well dressed men in black suits and ties emerged from behind a couple heaps of scrap metal.<br/><br/>"That's what I thought. So how you wanna do this?" His hands began lighting up furriously but one of the suits stepped up with his hand outstretched.<br/><br/>"Connor wait. We're hear on the councils' order. We were sent out to find Conduits for a job oportunity" Connor raised an eyebrow but didn't dim his hands. The Council hiring mutants to "round up" recruits for some foolhardy quest that is more likely just for their own benefits. But for some reason Connor felt inclined to go with them; whether it was out of curriosity or out of boredom was irrelavent.<br/><br/>"So because the Council can't get off their lazy asses to do whatever it is they want done themselves, they recruit you fucking losers to TRY and bring me in? That about right?" Connor's tone was hostile but he already decided he would see what it is the council would want with a bunch of Conduits. The two suits glanced at each other then nodded back at Connor, who managed to relax his hands and let the sparks fade out.<br/><br/>"Let's go then. You're leading the way though." Connor pointed and the suited mutants began walking ahead of him.<br/><br/>Eventually Connor and the suits boarded a crude elevator and began the ascension up to the Council's chambers. Uppon reaching the floor the mutants motioned for Connor to exit the elevator and stand out in the middle of the room. As Connor stepped off the doors shut behind him and the elevator descended with the two mutants, leaving Connor alone in the large but dimmly lit room. His thoughts wandered as he paced around, thinking about how many other Conduits they were recruiting and what they were capable of. More importantly, what was it that Council would need a group this powerful for. Connor shrugged it off and continued waiting for whoever else might show up.
