Without a moment's hesitation, he leapt clear of the custom-designed
vtol mini-jet and began to fall toward the rooftop where he had heard
the deal was going down. A quick telempathic scan told him that people
were inside, five distinct sets of emotions to be exact. His eyes
narrowed behind his cowl as he fell through the air, and drew himself
up into a ball. In seconds, he crashed down through the glass skylight
and he was inside.
Glass splintered everywhere but was turned away by his costume's deep
padding. His legs exploded behind him as he stretched his arms as wide
as they would go. A simple mental signal, picked up by miniscule
circuitry embedded in his cowl, caused the glider wing assembly
collapsed against his back to extend outward. This was the first
important bust he'd been on as the Falcon. It didn't stop him from
thinking of these men as fools.
....
"So you see, Don Marscapelli, Oyabun Ito, I've taken care of the
"Falcon problem," Dominic Rissetti said as he leaned back into his
chair. His little stint on the front page of the Transit City Times
had been like blood in the water, and had drawn his two most powerful
rivals to the table. The far wall had been cleaned, as had the carpet
beneath it. You could hardly see the blood stains let alone the coffee.
"Don Rissetti, with all due respect. I fail to see how common hitmen
will succeed against the Spectre of Transit City," said the elderly
asian gentleman seated across from Dominic. His dark eyes were cold
steel and betrayed nothing of his thoughts, nor his purpose here at the
table.

Thanks for letting me test my formatting. I'll post the whole thing
soon if this works the first time.
