Rhodes Island landship,
Doctor's office

(3rd POV)

The sound of scribbling pens and the clicking of keyboard keys can be heard inside the doctor's office.

Decorated with multiple items neatly strewn around the room, from something as simple as a desk plant to a full-blown (pun not intended) rocket-propelled grenade (RPG) mounted on the wall right behind the doctor's desk.

We can also see the doctor writing some reports, while Exusiai (his current assistant) is typing something on the monitor with an almost dead expression.

The room was quite like this until "Hey, Exusiai?" called out the doctor, and Exusiai answered with a hum "Something happened?" Exusiai stopped typing and slowly lay her head on her desk while letting out a miserable sigh.

The doctor stopped writing and glanced at her "Wanna talk about it?" there was silence for a moment before an answer came "Have you ever signed a deal with a devil?" this got the doctor to think for a moment "No..., non recently".

As Exusiai was about to ask a knock came from the door of his office "Doctor, do you have a minute?"  came the voice of the resident donkey in denial "Yes, come in Amiya" said the doctor as he glanced at Exusiai to see her already lifting her head off the desk.

As the door opened we can see Amiya walk in with someone in tow "Good morning Doctor, Exusiai" The doctor and Exusiai got up from behind their desks as the new person walked in "I'm here to introduce you to our possible new client".

Amiya beamed as she said that, the person who is a man stand at around 180-ish cm tall while wearing a black tactical jacket and black tactical cargo pants with black combat boots and an LED mask that imitated the wearer's expression as his current expression is that of awe.

"Oh yes!, you look as perfect as I remember!" the stranger exclaimed with his voice changed by a voice changer "Ummm, do I know you?" Exusiai asked as she watched him look her up and down.

"Oh, you don't know me, but I know you" This got Exusiai to nervously fake a laugh but before the situation can get any weirder the man reassured her "Not that kind of I know you, I know you from multiple videos online, and I must say your exploits are entertaining to watch, especially those action movie level stunts that you pull!".

This got Exusiai to grin "Well, I appreciate the compliment Mr?" "Evan Long, and you can call me Evan" A small cough can be heard and everyone looked to Amiya while she smiled at Evan "Oh yes, I'm sorry I can get distracted quite easily" Evan sheepishly said.

This got Amiya to smile and nod "Continuing from where I left off, this is Mr. Evan Long the CEO and Head Designer of Frontier, a Columbian-based fashion designer, military-grade equipment manufacturer, and weapon manufacturer".

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Evan" The doctor bowed slightly "Can you guys quit with the Mr thing?, that makes me feel old, and I'm still 32" His casual demeanor surprised the Rhodes Islanders but they recovered quickly. 

"Sure thing Evan, please take a seat" gestured to the doctor to the seat in front of his desk while he sat down "Would you like a drink?" "No thank you" The doctor nodded and asked, "So, what can I do for you?".

"I'm here bringing you equipment and outfits to improve your operators combat ability so they can defeat their enemies with the best of chances" This got the doctor interested "And not just defeat them from combat ability alone!" Evan told to all of them enthusiastically.

"But, also defeat their drip," Evan said resolutely "Their... drip?" using the word 'drip' confuses the Rhodes Island trio "I'm sorry but what do you mean by defeating their drip?" this question stopped Evan "oh... you poor souls" exclaimed Evan that made the trio even more confused.
