The Hunter Pt. 3 - An Invitation.

Nothing's really been happening lately since I found my tomb. That's a weird thing to say... Finding your own tomb.

 

Doorbell rang. I opened the door. Some lady and a bodyguard stands at my doorstep.

 

"Who are you?"

 

"It's not important who I am, but who you are, Ryan. Or should I say Orion."

 

"I asked a question. And I think with that remark, I deserve an answer."

 

"Amanda Waller."

 

"In that case, whatever you want, I ain't doing."

 

"Oh, yes you are, whether you like it or not. Take him down and put him in the back seat."

 

The guard runs up my stairs and wraps his arm around my neck. You know, for a small guy, he's got quite a grip. With one arm he held onto me and with the other he got out a sedative and shoved it in my neck. After that everything went black.

 

 

I woke up in the backseat of a car. My vision was misty, but I could barely make out what a sign said that we went by. A.R.G.U.S.

 

The car comes to a screeching halt. The door on my side opens. I'm grabbed by the shirt and thrown out onto the ground.

I get up and look at the building in front of me. It was a large building with windows all around and soldiers marching around it.

 

"Welcome to the A.R.G.U.S. main facility. Follow me. I've got some people I want you to meet." Amanda Waller states as she turns around and walks into the building.

 

I follow her.

 

"Why am I here?"

 

She doesn't answer.

 

We get to an elevator and Waller presses a button and the doors open. We step in and she clicks a button that says basement.

 

The elevator comes to a stop and the doors open.

 

I here a gun shot as I begin walking out of the elevator.

 

"Cease fire, Harley."

 

"I was just trying to scare him a bit. Party-pooper." A girl in a red and black outfit says as she walks back towards to men.

 

"Orion..."

 

"I prefer Ryan."

 

"Ryan, this is your new team."

 

"Merlyn the archer, at your service." A man in all black says.

 

"Harley Quinn." The girl in black and red says.

 

"Captain Boomerang, the marksman. Welcome to the team." A man in blue and black says.

 

"I never, agreed to a team. I never even agreed to coming here. Wait, why am I even here, I thought this team was criminal only. Ya, I do my research."

 

"Ryan Hunter, excellent hunter. Wanted by Mexico, Russia, and Japan for theft of priceless artifacts. You're also wanted in some states in America for the same reason."

 

"But I've never killed and those artifacts are too precious to just be stared at."

 

"You never killed in this life."

 

"I was a royal hunter, those were for contracts."

 

"Sounds like a former member of the team. So you in or not?"

 

"Not. If I ever decide to use my past life's name or powers, I'll use them for good. Not evil."

 

I walk towards the elevator and press the button to open the doors.

 

"If you ever change your mind, you know who to call."

 

I don't answer her. The doors shut and the elevator begins going up.

 

You know, if there's one thing that Waller taught me is that this country needs more heroes to deal with all the evil.
