It was two days after getting the van that Alyssa was contacted by Cassini, a new job. Apparently, weird things were afoot in Gary, Indiana. Gary? Indiana? What a place to be sent to. Alyssa had never been but knew enough to know it was a beaten down city. Crime ridden. On second thought, it made sense.
During the last few days Max stayed with Alyssa at her parent's place. It was the first time hanging out someone at their place. So Max did his best not to bother Alyssa and focused more on his simple needs. Since he didn't need to use his powers all the time, he spent his time in his normal teen form. Every morning at 4 am he would work out in her family gym for a good two hours then shower before cooking a large breakfast for Alyssa and himself. It was amazing he never gained weight despite his size but in reality it was stored as energy for his powers. Then he would check his phone for messages and playing video games. Since
Alyssa had an arcade room that no one used, Max decided to sped a few hours playing her games and really enjoyed the Dance Dance Revolution game she had. He liked the game/workout by dancing on the arrows in the sequence with the video game. Then he spent sometime on the first person shooter games with the plastic guns attached to the console. He would only stop to make lunch and dinner for himself and Alyssa, then back to the gym for another two hours. Cooking was something he was taught at a young age since he was raised to be independent. Max was very skilled in household chores, cooking, plumbing, electrical repairs, survival training, combat and mission briefing since he was taken in by his adopted father. However since he was homeschooled he was lacking in teamwork, proper social skills, empathy, sympathy, dating and helping others. Due to his harsh upbringing poor Max was a sociopath in that he could kill without any guilt and then eat a meal while sitting on the dead bodies. Though he was an attractive young man he had no clue on things like flirting, seduction, dating or flirting. If a woman hit on him he would be very confused by her and move on.
Oddly despite being in the same house Max didn't interact with Alyssa much since she seemed busy on her computer. Sometimes she would call him over to go over some information, but after that she was a shut in. Max wondered why such a smart girl like her was rather anti-social, but it was not his business to ask such questions. His father assigned him to be the muscle to her brains and finish their missions alive. Now that Max was working with others on mission he wondered if there was more to life than what he was trained to do. So when he could not figure out the complicated feelings he had he would simply make cookies and sweets. Seeing as they would be going on a new mission soon he figured they could have snacks prepared. He also order more snacks and drinks for that upcoming mission. He even bought a portable camp toilet with a curtain for privacy for when they were traveling through the woody areas. He also got more ammo and blessed items from his father. So far he had his dad's support since he was helping Alyssa complete her mission alive.
Alyssa sent out the text to the other members to meet in Gary, gave an address of a hotel for everyone to stay at. It was an open one that didn’t have a completely awful rating, not a lot of five star accommodations in that area. She said for everyone to text her when they got there.
After hearing they had a new mission Max helped Alyssa pack her van and brought important supplies.
