"Who are you, what do you want!" The women kicks and screams attempting to escape my hold.
"Six recruited me." I say in a cold monotone voice.
"Oh" she ceases her struggling. I stand up and offer her my hand pulling her up.
"Who are you?"
"Serpent." I return to cooking.
"What's you're real name?"
I paused and set down the pan with the wagyu. I sigh deeply "Orion. Orion Black."
I hear a large gasp behind me. "NO WAY!" I turn around in confusion "What?"
"You're Orion Black, you're a legend, you became a SEAL at 18 years old and disappeared 2 years later 12 years ago, (he's 32 now). What happened to you?"
"I refuse to tell you."
"I guess that's fair." She says sitting down at the dining table.
I grab two plates and set one in front of me and the other in front of her. I hold the pot in one hand and the pan in the other and serve her. I sit down and she stares as I remove my mask, I set it down on the table and begin to eat. I look up at the woman and realize she's been staring the whole time, as I meet her gaze her face is overcome with blush and she breaks eye contact. I continue to eat my food until I hear a large moan of pleasure from her, I look up and see that she's taken her first bite of the wagyu, once again she goes redder than the other woman's hair.
"Your name?" I ask empty of emotion
"Oh, Grace "Dokkaebi" Nam, South Korea. This food is amazing by the way, where did you learn to make it?"
"I traveled a lot in my line of work, I stayed in Japan for a while and learned to make many dishes. Asian food is my favorite food to make and eat. No more questions." (No more ?'s)
"Ok... One more" I roll my eyes " Why'd Six recruit you?"
"You'll see tomorrow." I say getting up and begin to clean the dishes.
"Goodnight Grace." I head to my bedroom leaving her in the dining room "Wait!" I hear as I close the door and lock it. I unpack my clothes and open the largest suitcase I have, my mobile armory equipped with a sawed off Remington with slug, buckshot, and incendiary shells. An upgraded Barrette. Many different types of knives. A customized M4A1, and dual m1911s, with enough ammo and explosives for an entire military base. (When you open the mobile armory it expands.)  I remove my clothes and mask setting them down on the night stand and stand in front of the mirror, hundreds of scars litter my body, Zeus left my face alone so he could "see the pain better." My eyes turned a slightly dark green from the large amount of poison.(Idk if this actually exists but it's cool, also you're pretty handsome so do what you will with that information.) I climb
into bed wearing nothing but shorts.

The memories of Gaz and Gregory still haunt me every night. They deserved to live, I survived though negligence and luck.

I awake in a cold sweat I turn to the nightstand and see the time 4:00 I get out of bed, apply my mask and head to the bathroom, still groggy I open the door and unknowingly stumble upon Grace exiting the shower(I wanted this cliche at least once), I lock eyes with her and she freezes turning cherry red.
"I apologize." I leave and head to the other bathroom.( I pulled a sneaky on ya, you weren't expecting that were you, No he ain't gay.)
I remove my mask and enter the shower as soon as I do my mind begins racing, what will she do, what will she say, among other things ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°). I exit the shower and she's nowhere to be seen, must be in her room. I turn to food to express my apology. I open the fridge and pull out the ingredients necessary to make a staple Korean dish, Beef bulgogi. The heavenly aroma pervades the house. The creaking of her bedroom door alerts me that I successfully lured her out.
"What are you making?" She asks in a quiet voice still embarrassed from the earlier incident.
"An apology." I answer "Beef bulgogi, seeing as you are Korean I wanted something that would remind you of home." I find my self incapable of looking at her. I throw the leftover rice into the microwave and plate it with the bulgogi.
" I'm sorry about that I was mostly asleep." I say placing the plates down. "I'll cook whatever you want."
"Then I'll do the dishes, deal?"
"Deal."
Over the intercom we hear "All operators report to the cafeteria immediately." I equip my mask.

Entering the cafeteria I see some operators in their respective units but mostly they are with their friends. Six comes up to me "Follow." I follow her to the center of the cafeteria.
"This is your new teammate Serpent, treat him with the same respect you would any other."
A older man wearing a SAS uniform stands up "Ash told me this fucker was a killer why should we trust him." The man positions himself in front of me and swings, I effortlessly stop his fist and force him to the ground painfully and slowly.
"Stop." Six command
I let go of his hand nearly breaking it. Grace waves me over to her "Is... Is that true?" She asks nervously. The whole room has their eyes on me, Grace and her table especially her table is occupied by only women a "girls table" so to speak. It's inhabitants are Grace herself, a blond woman with a GSG9 patch, a French woman, a Chinese woman with goggles, a Japanese woman with a hoodie, a woman with Green hair, the redhead, and lastly a blond woman with many tattoos. I lock eyes with the final woman.
"Meghan?"
