AUTHORS NOTE: for the characters real faces, I don't know if I'm looking in the wrong places but I can't find any pics of their faces unmasked, so this is just how I imagine them.

Maxim (Kapkan) sat at his desk working away on his EDD MkII s. Ever since he had experimented with his laser's visibility, there had been a slight delay on it's set a perfectionist, this would never do.

"Ah!" he yelped, as he electrocuted himself again.

"Maxim! What the hell are you doing? That's the 5th time in 10 minutes that you've electrocuted yourself!" yelled Shuhrat (Fuze) across the room.

"Oh. Whoops, must be tired. Excuse me if I'm bothering you."

"You're not bothering me, but you're clearly not having much fun over there being fried" grumbled Shuhrat.

"Ah no, I'm not. I must be tired."

But as Maxim turned back to his desk, he knew it wasn't fatigue that was bothering him. It was Tina (Frost). Oh how that woman captivated him. Her deep brown eyes he wished he could stare into for eternity, that dark silky hair he wished he could hold. But no, she was still infatuated with that blasted Sebastian (Buck).

That little rat. He had no proof, but he swore he was up to something with that Dokkaebi bitch. Ever since she had joined the group, all the younger men of rainbow had been falling all over her. But he knew where the real prize lay, and that was with Tina. Although, with everyone focused on Grace (Dokkaebi) that meant less competition for him with Tina.

Shuhrat stopped his boxing in the corner of the room (every moment he didn't spend training was a moment wasted in Shuhrat's opinion). He looked over at his comrade sitting at his desk. Although Shuhrat had never been particularly good at figuring out people, in fact he was terrible at that, even he could tell there was something wrong with Maxim.

"Well, that's enough of that. I'm gonna hop in the shower and then head down to the mess hall. You coming?" asked Shuhrat.

"Hmm? Oh. Oh, yeah sure… Uh, just give me a second…" replied Maxim as he began to pack away his things.

As Shuhrat went to take his shower, Maxim changed into a dark blue T-shirt and black slim jeans. Shuhrat came out of the bathroom and pulled on a white shirt, a dark green wool sweater and some light blue baggy jeans.

"Alright. Let's go eat."
