Syn nodded in agreement to Mars explanation on why they were in the labs. She longed for the day they could return to Sanctuary. "See you around and good hunting Mars."

Once the big man was out of the room Syn turned back to Shade. "Do you have more questions?"

Shade gave Mars a small wave of his hand, bidding the red man his farewell.

"Yeah, do all of his brothers look like that?" He replied with a grin.

Syn smiled and giggled at Shade's question. "Yup they sure do. Pretty much the only difference is their personalities. They're an interesting bunch alright." She wondered what Shade thought of that.

"So tell me more about yourself."

Shade raised an unseen eyebrow at the thought of six huge, red men with large tails all thrashing around. It would be a heck of a site to see. However, Syn's next question made Snipe snap back into reality.

"I'm not so sure you want to know more about me. I'm not really a nice guy." Shade said with a grin.

The response Shade came out with made Syn smile. "That's ok I'm not exactly known for being little miss wonderful either. In fact, most people that aren't in my little group tend to give me plenty of space if they've heard of me."

"Oh...why is that? You seem pretty innocent to me." Shade remarked. A nurse walking close coughed several times when he overheard Shade's comment before continuing out of the room. The blue eyes of Shade watched the man disappear before turning back to Syn.

"I guess I could be wrong." Shade said with a smirk.

"We're not talking about me right now. We're talking about you. Tell me more about you and your bad side." Syn had also noticed the nurse when he coughed and when Shade turned to look at the man Syn shot the nurse a wicked glare. She quickly retracted her look as Shade turned back to her.

Shade shrugged his shoulders at Syn's comment.

"What can I say there isn't much to tell. I was a victim of foster care system. Got in trouble with the law on several occasions. Although they couldn't hold me for long." Shade said, his smile widening for a moment.

"Just from that little description you don't sound all too threatening as you made yoruself out to be a few minutes ago." Syn looked at Shade with a questionable expression. If there was more he wasn't telling then She wanted to hear it. On the same token if that's all he had to make himself out to be as aweful as his tone had suggested earlier then she was far from impressed.

Shade's smirk faded at Syn's words. His eyes narrowed as his eyes traced down her face from her green eyes to her throbbing jugular vein. One little slip of his knife could slip that blood across the floor. His eyes jerked back up to her face before he broke into a smile again. However, this time his eyes betrayed his face as they still held a stern gaze.

"How about we leave my past where it is? And I wouldn't ask about yours. All you need to know is I'm a loyal servant and can take orders well." Shade said as he continued to hold that evil smirk.

Syn could see her mental games were getting to Shade. She couldn't see his full expression but his tone told her what she wanted to know. "I greatly appreciate having someone who can take orders. As for being a servant, if you prefer to be refered to as such then I have no problem doing so. I only require your unwavering loyalty to me and to aid our companions."

"Well then, you have it." Shade said simply.

"Any orders you have for me at the moment?" He asked with a hint of sarcasism in his voice His smile changing from a cover-up, back to its playful self.

"Well, you could look into where Sonya has gotten off to, or you can find out more about the one known as Calley. I have my suspicions about him. Something else you could do is look for more recruits to join our ranks." Syn waved her right hand in a nonchalant manner. "Take your pick unless there's more on your mind at the moment."

"I see work is never in short supply around here." Shade said with a slight chuckle.

"I might go see Sonya. I'm guessing her part went alright during my distraction? Although, that Calley character sounds interesting. Is he stuck in this building too until the hostiles die down towards mutatns?"

((OOC: Sorry for taking so long))

"That reminds me. I'd like to speak with Teresa/Sonya about her part of the mission. If you do find her let her know I'm looking for her." Yes, Syn was very interested to find out if her new spy was able to gather any information on the mutants in the camps as well as those who have been registered.

Smiling to Shades remark about there being no lack in possible work Syn shook her head. "If we're going to be strong then we must work to learn about those around us. It's always good to discover a weakness in one's opposition so that weakness can be exploited to it's fullest extent. So other than looking for Teresa/Sonya you might see about getting to know any of the others who are taking refuge here. Preferably people under Hunter's command and those from Xaviers sister school."
