Cory stood high above the rest of Tokyo. He couldn’t help but feel the excitement of vertigo. Despite the excitement he didn’t allow himself to be corrupted from his concentration on the mission at hand. Like usual, his job was to protect the rest of the group. He was very capable in combat and strategies but his ability was more suited for support rather than aggression so his hands were more or less tied.


"Nox, Osiris, Dark Star, Scapegoat, and Royal, it's showtime." Chem said with some authority.

He slung down the rope and was soon followed by Osiris. Cory took his carabineer and housed it along the rope. Waited his allotted time to be a safe distance from Osiris and then launched himself off the roof. There was an almost instant peace in the feeling of flight. It was a secret delight to Cory that he wasn’t sure he should share as contractors tend to be as serious as they can while on missions. He crossed to the next building in a mere couple of minutes. With a flick of his wrist he was free and sailed through the open window. He tucked into a ball and rolled back up to his feet and was ready behind Osiris.

He was quick behind her as she paced through the hall and followed Chem who was dripping blood everywhere. They came to a main hall and Chem walked straight through without hesitation or a second glance. It wasn’t like him to be so careless; that was Cory’s job. Cory readied himself by stepping back into the hall and stretching his hands out forwards. Like an impossibly thin pane of glass into another world a portal was open large enough for him to step through. He would have to duck slightly but it was large enough to not be uncomfortable. His training was paying off. This portal allowed Cory to pass from one hallway to the other without passing through the main hall. He exited and stood waiting for the other team members so he could close it.
