The harsh screech of rubber scraping against asphalt hits your eardrums as a bulky platinum-white motorbike slides sideways to a halt right in front of you. Partially shrouded by fresh tire smoke, the machine's rider self-assuredly dismounts before closing most of the remaining distance between the two of you. From up close, it turns out that he's actually a really ordinary-looking guy—the kind of average Joe that wouldn't stand out in a crowd at all. Following a wordless staredown that feels straight out of a fucking samurai flick, his mouth curls into a cocky smirk. While locking eyes with you from behind tinted shades, the man reaches a gloved hand towards what appears to be some kind of jerry-rigged weapon holstered on his belt and draws it. Now pointing the damn thing straight at you like it's the hilt of a sword and hovering his thumb over an open safety toggle switch on its side, he finally gets to his introduction. The name's Travis Touchdown. ...You one of the ranked assassins?
