Guy's POV
And we were running, running as fast as we could. Me, Scarlett, Barry and Karma. They were my friends and to be fair, they were pretty awesome. Karma said that me and her were only accquintances but ah, that's just her. I got along with Barry, he was quite.. cool. And then there was her, Scarlett, I wouldn't say she was mean or cheeky or anything like that but man she definately knew how to make a man angry.
I'm Guy Dangerous, just your average explorer. How I met these three? Well, I guess I could start from the beginning.
:-:
"I need a team.." Guy said to himself, hitting his finger off the map he was reading "I can't do this on my own, there's gonna be a lot of climbing and teamwork to get to this idol--" a gust of wind shot past him "Wow!" he exclaimed, nearly being swept off his feet. When he stabled himself he looked forward and could only see more wind. He began running, he wanted to check out what it was.
"'Scuse me!" Guy shouted to the woman, or he thought it was a woman, in front of him "Can you slow down please? I'd like to talk to you!" he shouted. Unexpectedly, the woman did stop. Guy nearly bumped into her but she managed to stop him in time with her hand against his chest. She was atleast 5 inches smaller than him.
The woman looked him up and down and then dropped her hand "Are you trying to follow me?" he took a few steps back and she followed him "Who are you? What do you want?" she asked, her voice got louder after each sentence. Her voice had a bit of a manly tone in it, kind of like a ninja tone, but you could definately identify she was a girl.
"No, well yeah, but no, not in a bad way. My name is Guy Dangerous, i'm an explorer from London. I didn't mean to anger you, may I know your name?" he asked, giving her a small smile.
She took a step back "I-I'm Karma Lee.." she stuterred a bit "Fastest legs in the Far East!". "And so "Guy", may I ask why you were following me?" she returned the smile, but hers was much more smaller and slightly straight.
"Well, you see, there's a temple, I don't know where, and an idol is in it. This idol is worth millions, I need a team. A team who is afraid of no danger, and you, you seem like the time of person to not be afraid, so are you in?" Guy said, reaching his hand out. Karma looked at him, then his hand and then him again, she shook his hand.
"Fine, a team needs more than two people if it's looking for an idol so lets go.." Karma said, whipping around and walking away. Guy followed her, reaching her side.
"You know, I saw your speed earlier and it was amazing! How did you do that?" Guy asked, Karma stopped in her tracks and turned around to him and put her hand to his throat, pushing him against a tree.
"You do not ask about my speed, do you hear me? That has something to do with my past.. my speed wasn't fast enough for my past. You don't understand and no one ever will! So lets just continue to find other "teammates" you hear me?" Karma asked, shouting in his face.
Guy quickly nodded, she was quite tough for someone inches smaller than him. She dropped him from the tree, he slipped down the tree, nearly to the ground but got up in time. He went back to her side again but a few steps behind her. Getting her to join his team was simple, but what did she mean about her past?
