He pulled off his mask and Cass didn't move. Only her eyes flicked down to inspect the line of his jaw and shape of his lips. Underneath his dangerous but accepting golden eyes sat a slightly pointed nose and a brave mouth pursed in a serious glare. Her eyes traveled very slowly from the line of his jaw to his neck to his shoulders, following and comparing symmetry and line. Then, she looked slowly back up into his eyes. There was no denying that one - her bodyguard was a piece of work. Now if she could just do something about that attitude.
She nodded to his bike. "You called me out," she said in a low voice. "It's only fair you take me back in, wouldn't you say?"
She glided over to the bike and waited for him.

Chase could not help but smirk as she turned around to move to his bike. his mask was instantly back up and he activated his powers he disappeared in that very instant as if like smoke only to reappear on the other side of the bike and held up a single helmet for her.
"Put it on and hold on tight,” he said as he hoped on the bike in front of her ignoring any need for one himself. He started it up and gave the engine a quick rev the bike thou known for its power gave off not a sound as he felt the bike come to life under him. "Modified sound suppression device" he said as he pointed to a switch where the headlights usually are, lights that had been unmistakably removed. "Useful in my line of work"

Cass jumped as he disappeared and reappeared right in front of her. Shadow teleportation. She accepted the helmet and straddled the seat, slipping her arms around his waist and locking them firmly around his abdomen. As he leaned back to tell her about the suppression device she activated her powers. "What about complete sound negation?" she whispered into his ear. "No one within a twenty foot radius can hear your bike or our voices."
With that little purr she leaned back and shifted herself on the seat, then rested her chin on his shoulder. "And you'll have to tell me your name at some point. When I introduce you I can't call you Shadowshift."
She was a little worried about zipping through Gotham without headlights, but if this man had command over shadows...well they should be fairly safe.

"Chase Parker" he said as he closed his eyes and smiled "that's the identity I'm using at the moment" he told her before flicking off the switch and suddenly kicking the bike in to high gear and shooting off from under the bridge and up on to it.
"Not to mention power negation?" he said as he drove them down the middle and between a pair of cars. "And besides some times I want to make a noise in one spot lets them" there was a moments pause in his voice an instant in which he seemed uncertain about something “do you trust me?” he asked as he eyed a dark ally way ahead.

Cass cuddled against his back, keeping the wind out of her face but eyeing Gotham as it flew by them. Chase Parker. Her mind was already rifling through the Rolodex of information, trying to tie it to any case she'd ever known about or worked on. When her search came up blank she continued to relax against him. He mentioned occasionally making a noise, but she didn't drop her powers. And when he mentioned power negation she chuckled at his ear. "I thought you would notice. I can always tell when someone realizes their power is gone. I hope you don't think too poorly of me for using it."
The atmosphere around them changed, however, when his words do you trust me filtered through the air to her ears. "I don't really have a choice," she said truthfully. "But if you get me killed you don't get paid."
Her arms tightened around his waist and she looked around. Something had put him on edge; she could feel his muscles tensing under his shirt. She tried to ignore how powerful he felt under her grip and instead braced herself in anticipation of whatever he was about to do.

Chase powered the bike up reeving it that fraction more as they sped a head of the traffic and then put it in to a sharp power slide the rear of the vehicle flicking out from under them as they slid around and in to the ally with out losing too much speed. Unfortunately this ally was a dead end. one hundred metres ahead off them was a solid brick wall. and at the speed they were doing there was no way in which Chase could slow on down. not in time to stop.
so he poured on just a little more speed and flue at the wall. only to suddenly disappear bike rider and all. Then appear in an ally that they most certainly was miles away from. "ah what a thrill he said as he slowed the bike down and moved on out on to the road not a two blocks away from her home.

Cass gasped in horror as she saw the brick wall flying up to them, and she wondered for a fraction of a second if Chase had been leading her along this entire time. But then suddenly everything went black and cold for a moment and then they roared out onto a street only a few blocks from Cass's home. Letting out a weak whimper, Cass dropped her head against his shoulder. "You're really iffy on this whole getting paid thing, aren't you," she groaned. "So what made you change direction like that? Oh and turn right here, third house on the left." She indicated a street; her house sat there dark but welcoming.

"Lets just say it was quicker" he said as he followed her directions and pulled his bike up in to drive way and killed the engine. "Ah so this is going to be home ha?" he asked before raising an eyebrow and letting out a long breath and slipped of his bike. "I trust you will give me the grand tour?"
