Scorpion was the nickname of a woman, who was one of the most talented workers from LIFE. The nickname wasn't only because of the animal that was inked under the skin of her right arm. She was fearless, clever and strong; not only with her muscles that were defining her whole body, trained through hard workouts; but also mentally she wasn't to underestimate. Still, she had experienced that a lot; mostly with men.
Her blue eyes were focused on the lock she currently tried to open as she crouched down in front of a big door inside the main building. In the background, she heard the sounds of people running around, fighting each other. It didn't distract her, though. The blue color of her eyes matched the lower part of her hair she had dyed. The upper layers of her curly hair were black and pulled into a bun so her hair was half opened half closed. With that, her ears with several piercings were open to see.
The scorpion on her arm wasn't her only tattoo, one could see some more on her right arm, which was free from fabric. Her left arm, though, was covered in the fabric of her uniform, hugging the muscles of her arms. Yes, her arms.
"Nice arms"
Those two words made the woman stop her movements, her eyes snapped forwards on the door she had tried to open. The clicking sound told her that the man, who had sneaked up from behind, had a gun.
"How much do you lift?"
Scorpion turned her head and body to look behind. The man was broad and seemed muscular; the body type she often had caught herself being jealous of. With a chuckle, she slowly stood up, eyes locked with his green ones.
"Normally when I give an answer to that, the guy starts to cry"
Jackson had to chuckle in amusement, kept the gun pointed right at her. To be honest, although this woman wasn't his type with her dyed hair, there was something attractive about her. It probably was her charisma that radiated from her and her blue eyes... and maybe Jackson had a thing for blue eyes.
"No surprise to me, since you work for LIFE", he answered, just now realized the woman didn't seem to have a weapon with her. At least he couldn't see one.
"And in DEATH, there only are men like you?"
Scorpion wasn't flirting. But she knew what an effect she had on people with her confident talking.
"Apparently, you're me in LIFE"
The answer brought out a laugh from Scorpion. Then she shook her head in amusement.
"I don't think so", she said with a voice dipped in joking. Her laughter fell then, just like the amused tone in her voice. And suddenly, the blue turned ice cold.
"I don't hide behind big weapons, big boy"
Jackson's eyebrows moved briefly. 'Boy'?
Aware of what her words did to this guy, Scorpion tensed her shoulders for a moment, standing broader as her hand balled to fists. On her right hand shimmered something that caught the mafia leader's attention. Her fingers weren't free there, but put in silver brass knuckles.
In that moment, Jackson's onyx let him hear Louis' voice.
"Guys, I got to know about a guy called 'Snake', he seems to be quite important so keep attention to that"
"Maybe there are more important people with such nicknames", Harry's voice added.
Jackson put notice to that, looked back to the woman standing there a few meters away. With a grin, his eyes fell to the muscular arm of her.
"Yeah, I think I found the scorpion"
His amused voice seemed to provoke the woman, who seemed ready to fight as her blue eyes sparkled angrily at him. And with one last amused grin, Jackson threw his machine gun right next to him to the ground.
