The door to Blaze's room rests wide open. An obvious invite to all those attending to go ahead and enter. Spending time on people knocking and having to open the door was so wasteful, so, Blaze simplified the procedure. Although, this whole ordeal seemed a bit out of character for the non-social, people hater known as Blaze....
In the room, Blaze is seen stockpiling the fridge full of an assortment of beers. The harder liquor is seen still setting on the counter. We then see a few tables pushed together with poker chips and a few decks of cards sitting atop of them. Chairs surround the tables, though Blaze isn't expecting, or really hoping for, much of a turn out. He still questions why he's even doing this....
xX-The Unextinguishable Inferno Blaze-Xx Wasting my damn time on this...And for what? Those Familia b**ches will probably show...Ruin the whole damn thing....If they do come they better just sit the hell down and shut the hell up...Don't feel like busting their heads tonight...Would rather just go to bed now....
In the dim corridor of the small apartment like room, lurked a shadowy presence. A presence that had associated itself with Blaze when he began his WWE Havoc career. And now, it was apparently accompanying him to the APW....
xX-The Voice-Xx How many times do we have to go over this boy? As the old saying goes....'Know thy enemy'.....And tonight....your going to be doing just that....Getting acquainted with your enemies here....Now some, you know already...Fine, learn more...The others....Get to know them well...As your boss Chantell said....Mingle....
The voice echoes off into nothingness and disappears just as quickly as it had shown. Leaving Blaze with nothing more than useless advice and a bit of a headache...
xX-The Unextinguishable Inferno Blaze-Xx Eh...Whatever....Maybe I'll get lucky and no one will show....And do me a favor....Stay gone once and for all this time...alright?....
Blaze just shakes his head as he goes back to preparing for the poker game....
(OOC: Yeah, 'The Voice' is kind of a new gimmick I've been working on in another site...Basically, no one hears it or sees the shadowy figure except Blaze...Maybe hes going crazy...Who knows...But yeah....Just figured I'd give ya'll the heads up on that)

Just outside the hallway, 187 was just out walking about. He didn't really have anything to do on the agenda at the moment, so he figured he'd get around. It was better than staying cooped up in his own room with nothing to do. As he was walking down the hallway, he heard a familiar voice back from New York days. They just seem to keep popping up. He hasn't really seen any new faces other than that of Candice and a certain person he and his brothers like to call "Dick". He had not even met the other bosses of the company, but he figured in time he will eventually be involved with everyone at one point or another. He always had been quite involved with the majority of the roster no matter which company it was he stepped foot in. Something seemed to make him give an awkward look towards the doorway. He heard talking coming from the room, but from where he stood, it sounded like they were holding a conversation with himself. He found this quite odd and figured it was interesting enough to go and check out who exactly this person was that he heard. As he stepped into the doorway, he poked his head inside and looked around with a raised eyebrow. Not knowing why exactly the door was already open but he didn't question it. He then noticed that familiar person that he heard in the hallway. A smirk came across his face as he knew this person very well. He brought a closed fist up to the door as he stood in the doorway. And then knocked several time on the door to get the attention of that very person...
Yooooooo.... knock knock...

The light from the doorway all of a sudden gets dim, as is being eclipsed. And for good reason, as Dru Nedermeyer stands in the doorway, in 1 hand a box of cigars, in the other a case of Sam Adams (Dru only drinks Sam Adams ). He knocks on the door and announces himself.I got the beer and the smokes. I hope you're ready to lose some cash Blaze, cuz my poker game is a sight to be seen.Dru enters and takes a seat at the table, sitting the smokes and beer near by.

Shibito slips by 187 and just walks into Blaze's room. He takes the seat opposite of Blaze and grabs one of the decks beginning to shuffle.
So what shall it be?
He asks in a very cold empty voice. Shibito watches Blaze with a slight grin on his face awaiting a response.

After spending time gaining a rest within his quarters, British native Justin Lynwood had decided to explore the corridors, dressed in his casual attire, with his baseball cap slightly lowered, covering his eyes. During his walk, a sound of commotion was heard from one of the other rooms. Upon approaching it, the door appeared to be wide open. Inching further, Justin becomes curious to what is happening within the room. Upon closer inspection, the word "poker" slips through Justin's ears, raising his awareness. Taking a step back, Justin begins looking to the ceiling in thought.
Poker eh? Been a while since I last played.
Double checking, Justin begins patting around the pockets of his jeans, looking for his wallet. Finding it and withdrawing it, he opens the wallet to check how much cash he has contained.
...This'll do.
Closing and tucking the wallet away, Justin exhales calmly and approaches the open door, peering through to see who was currently inside. Knowing that the people within were very unfamiliar to him, Justin plucked up the balls and stepped into the room.
"Any chance of an extra player?"

Shibito doesn't even glance at 187 as he keeps his eyes fixed on Blaze.
I don't know about you guys but I'm here to play cards.
He stops shuffling and deals out 4 cards face down to seperate places. One in front of Blaze, one in front of himself, and two to seperate open spaces for 187 and Dru. He then deals out 4 cards face up, one to each position. The card in front of Shibito is a seven of hearts.

Chantell leans against the door, and flips her hair to make sure that it stays straight as she watches the boys play their game.
Can I play boys, or am I to late to get dealt in?

Justin turns his head, noticing that one of the bosses had peaked her head around the corner.
Oh bloody hell...
"No idea. Why do you think I'm standing here, waiting to see if I get dealt in?"
Justin merely shrugs as he begins to wonder why the dealing has already started.

Shibito glances at the two newcomers before dealing a set of cards to two empty seats as if implying for them to join the game.

She quickly looks over to Justin a smile on her face.
Well Justin, I think that is our cue to join the game.
She places a hand on her waist and casually walks into the room and takes a seat in one of the empty chairs provided for her.
Come on Justin...you can sit beside me. Just a warning though, I tend to get violent if things do not go well.

Raising an eyebrow, Justin approaches the table, grabbing a hold of the chair provided. He steps in front of it and sits himself down, getting comfortable in his current position. Tipping his cap further down than before, Justin gets himself ready.
"Deal me."

The first arrival, an old acquaintance by the name of 187. Though they never actually had any beef with each other, he was still a part of the Familia. But, everyone was invited. So, Blaze motions for 187 to enter. He's about to speak to him, but multiple others then begin filling the room and he loses track of his thoughts....
xX-The Unextinguishable Inferno Blaze-Xx Damn, a better turn out than I expected....Yo Dru, toss me a Sam Adams bro....Then you can put the rest in the fridge if you want...And if you can find the room...
A few familiar faces...Some unfamiliar as well. Especially the eager one who was already passing out cards. He seemed to be a bit of a strange character.....Blaze then notices Chantell enter...
xX-The Unextinguishable Inferno Blaze-Xx Well, of course you can join us...It looks like we're playing....Um.....What the hell are we playing? One card down, four face up?....I just planned on some simple Texas Hold'um.....

Shibito replies to Blaze by simply pulling a jack of clubs out of the deck and showing it to the others signifying that they are playing Black Jack with 1 card face down and 1 face up in front of each person.

A smirk comes across his face as he looks at the people around him. There was Blaze, someone he knew quite well. Dru Nedermeyer, another he knew quite well. Some guy that appears to look like the living undead he cared little about who thinks he's running the place. A red headed woman who appears to be a bit fiery from the sound of her "violent" tendencies she says she has. And another guy that he did not recognize but is pretty sure he'll get to know him by the end of the night. This game may get a little interesting once it's said and done. 187 walks over to the table and takes a seat in one of the empty chair.
Whattup Blaze? How things been wit'cha? Ain't seen you in long while. Where you been at man?
He places his elbows ontop of the table as he awaits for the rest to take their seats for the game to begin.

Blaze was a bit caught off guard by 187 actually asking how he'd been. He wasn't really expecting that, but then again, 187 was one of the few Familia losers that Blaze didn't really have problems with...
xX-The Unextiguishable Inferno Blaze-Xx Eh, same ole same ole....Took a bit of time off...Then found myself here in Canada...And now I'm looking to take your alls money tonight in this poker game..
Blaze flashes a sly smile as he looks at his face down card. It seemed as if they were doing a few warm up games of blackjack before the real money poker started...
xX-The Unextiguishable Inferno Blaze-Xx What about you man? Whats 187 been up to?

He didn't care much for Blaze. He could just get into a verbal argument with Blaze and they could just go back and forth at it. It wouldn't be anything new to him as he was sure it wouldn't be anything new to Blaze. But 187 wasn't here for no drama. Atleast not today or not until someone starts something. Right now he was just trying to see who was who around APW. See who the new faces were, and who else he already knew was here. He raised an eyebrow up at Blaze as he looked down at the card set down on the table. A smirk came across his face he looked back up at Blaze and responds by saying...
Takin' my money, huh? What 'da hell you been smokin' and where can I find some?
He laughs to himself as he shook his head and listened on to what Blaze told him about what he had been doing recently. He nodded his head and then he goes on to respond about what he's been up to...
Sh*t, what have I been up to? Hell, I visited home. Got into some sh*t wit' some people. Scrapped wit' an old friend. Things got ugly and let's just say it wasn't too much mo' prettier than it was when it started. I lost a couple of things here and there while 'da otha' mothaf**ka lost a bit much mo' than I did. Since then? Took some time off as well. Had to take some time off man. Sh*t 'dat happened in New York is stressful on my @$$.

Lindsay made her way down the hall looking for her room. Along the way she found an open door, she went to knock on it and say hello, but stopped suddenly as she heard voices. One she in particular that she knew. It was Blaze. Quietly she made her way to the room and stepped inside. Her brown hair dancing behind her. Blue eyes scanning everything in site. The room wasn't exactly the tidiest, but it seemed to be Blaze style. She stood silently and watched the poker game going on. No words came from her mouth she just watched and listened to the conversations going on around here.

Though Blaze doesn't comprehend most of what 187 is saying, especially the part about losing a couple of things and all that, he still nods along and throws in a few 'I sees' and 'yeahs' here and there...
xX-The Unextiguishable Inferno Blaze-Xx Hit me.....
Blaze calls for another card, but unluckily recieves a king and busts....
xX-The Unextiguishable Inferno Blaze-Xx Damn...Shoulda saw that coming...I'm gonna get something to drink real quick..deal me out next game...
As Blaze stands to head over to the fridge, he notices someone else entering the room. A female with shoulder length brown hair. Somehow, she seemed familiar, so, Blaze addresses her...
xX-The Unextiguishable Inferno Blaze-Xx Excuse me....Can I help?....Wait, don't I know you from somewhere?

Lindsay looked up startled that someone was talking to her. She had been zoning out.
" No...no you dont,"

xX-The Unextiguishable Inferno Blaze-Xx Hmmm...Alright then...Pull up a seat and join in if ya want...
Blaze makes his way over to the fridge and slowly opens its door. He stands there for a moment, trying to decide which one of the many assortments of beers he wanted...
xX-The Unextiguishable Inferno Blaze-Xx Hmmm....Choices, choices....
Blaze then just randomly reaches into the fridge and removes a bottle...
xX-The Unextiguishable Inferno Blaze-Xx Oh yeah...Anyone else want one?...
Although the question was intended for everyone, Blaze's eyes were locked on the new female in the room as he spoke. He still couldn't shake the feeling that he knew her from somewhere...
