----------Tex Reed's Luxury Sedan, Tuesday June 16th 2:14PM----------
"Are we there yet?" Alex sighs with boredom following his second consecutive uneventful day of personal protection.
"The answers the same as it was ten seconds ago, no!" Tex spits back while holding his palm over the mouthpiece of his cellular phone. "Now shut yer mouth while I take this call!"
The mercenary visibly squirms in his seat while thrashing his head back and forth in protest to the inaction he's suffering. "Look!" He shouts while raising the pointer finger on his right hand in the air and scratching it vigorously with his left. "I can't even explain how itchy this trigger finger is!"
"Let me call ya back," Reed groans into his phone before sighing deeply and searching his thoughts for the right words to say. "I'll explain this to ya one more time as simply as I can," Tex calmly states while drawing Hayden's attention, "the point of you bein' here is to avoid incidents." Tex re-opens his phone and punches in a number, his glare flashing back to the childish mercenary. "Nobody's gonna attack me while yer..."
Before he can finish his sentence the sedan screeches to an immediate stop hurling the un-safety restrained Agent X over the front seat and through the windshield, rolling roughly down the hood and slumping to the street in a bloody mess. Alex shakes his aching head and rolls to his knees, noticing a sticky green slime coating the front wheels of the sedan, adhering them to the asphalt. The rear passenger door flies open and a rough set of hands snag Tex by the lapels of his suit coat and drags him roughly to the road. Alex climbs to his feet just in time to see the mutant known as Toad towering threateningly over the man he's charged with protecting.
In the blink of an eye the mercenary has his forty five caliber hand gun gripped tightly in his left hand, immediately squeezing out three rounds, one of which Toad is unable to dodge as it burrows roughly in his shoulder.
"And that was with my left!"Alex exclaims as he looks to his right arm hanging limply to his side, still badly injured following the car accident. He leans forward and slams his right shoulder hard into the side of the damaged sedan, popping the dislocated shoulder joint back into socket. "Now get a load of what I can do with my shooting hand!" Hayden brags, losing focus on the mutant long enough for him to fire a load of green mucus at the mercenary, striking him on his recently recovered right hand and trapping his index and middle finger to the side of the car. "I've seen Deadpool do things that would make a coroner squirm, and this is by far the grossest thing I've ever seen!"
Toad spins away from the mercenary, still favoring his wounded left shoulder, and bounds back to Tex's prone form. Sensing the pending death of his current employer Alex acts desperately and aims his handgun directly at his trapped hand, right at the point where the index finger and middle finger meet the hand. "I better get paid extra for this," he whines as he pulls the trigger and blows two fingers directly from his hand. "Didn't your mother ever tell you that's impolite to spit!" Hayden screams as he steps away from the car to aquire and angle on the mutant and pulls the trigger, missing Toad but forcing him away from Reed.
"I've 'ad about enough o' you mate!" Toad taunts as he leaps and closes the distance between himself and the mercenary, flopping in the air and striking him in the face with his powerful legs and feet. Alex stumbles backward and clutches his head but doesn't fall, further infuriating the mutant and drawing a second attack. As Toad attempts to replicate his previous strike Alex drops his weapon and fires his hands toward his face, catching Toad's feet while simultaneously changing direction, drawing the mutant over his shoulder and slamming him hard off the street. The stunned Toad attempts to get his bearings, but is unable to do so before Agent X scoops his firearm from the street and blows a hole in the back of Mortimer's knee.
"I'm not hired to kill anybody," Alex states while locking his weapon intently on Toad's head, "but I'm not opposed to giving away a free bee." Toynbee rolls to his back, raising his right arm in the air in surrender while clutching his now bullet riddled right knee with his left hand.
"Good luck," Toad says with a smile as he feels the street begin to rumble below him.
"You gotta be kidding me," Alex sighs as he ejects the clip in his hand gun and swiftly reloads them.
"You're friends with Susan Boyle?"
