The Caped Crusaders

[Spockledorf he/him]

Alright, so Spark's (my) goal is to find an object or device... one that is currently unknown. He is disguised as a guard somewhere in a complex of Konna's. (The 'where' isn't important at the moment.)

Meanwhile elsewhere, Spark finishes picking a lock to an out-of-the-way room.

"Gotcha!" Spark exclaims with a smile--the door opening inward. Kicking himself immediately after remembering that he is trying to be quiet. A little chagrined, Spark walks into the room and closes the door behind him. The lights are off, but that's no problem as he pulls out a pen light. 

As he illuminates the room, he finds that the room is empty--except for some unpowered servers, a couple unlit screens, and two more doors.

Well, I guess I'll just look at the computers until I find something--anything that could be a clue...

He moves over to the other side if the room and powers a server on...

Please feel free to add to my side story, I hope to eventually merge with one of the groups...

"Gotcha. Who's Konna?"

"She's the leader of VECCW."

Vanessa stares at Xoath, studying his rifle. "That's a good gun. Where'd you get it?"

[Condensation she/her]

"Can we please get out of here?" Harmony says, looking behind them at the soldiers quickly spilling out of the building.

"Made it." He patted it.

"Do you want me to hold them back?" He slid his hand down the barrel, and suddenly a handle appeared, which he grabbed. He spun the handle, and a small click noise caused the end of the rifle to shrink inwards a little. He flicked a lever-like contraption on the side, and a sight popped up out the top. "I've got plenty of rounds in this bad boy."

[Condensation she/her]

"I don't know, can we all get away? Also, where are we going? Whatever it is, please hurry! Those soldiers are getting awfully close!"

Xaoth drops down onto one knee, then holds the sights of his rifle up to his eye. He directs the end of the gun to face the hordes of soldiers, then flicks down a lever and squeezes the trigger.

A sustained spray of bright plasma bolts cuts through the waves of soldiers. In seconds, at least dozen were either dead or incipacitated on the floor. As the others took cover, Xaoth stands back up, holding the butt of his gun to his shoulder, releasing plasma fire at any who poked their heads out to fire back. He slowly walks backwards as he fires on the soldiers.

"Keep moving. They're not coming out for awhile."

Hentient stands on the field. She looks down at herself, uncertain. She’s wearing loose jeans and a black sweatshirt, a messenger bag swung across her shoulder. Inside, lays her plans. Plans for everything, plans for anything. A pistol hides under her sweatshirt, ready to be used. Hentient opens her messenger bag, searching through her messy papers, and pulls out an index card. It’s titled For meeting new people:   She quickly scans the words and stands up, adjusting her glasses. 

Hentient walks over to the other people on the field. “He- hello, My names Hentient.” She smiles, somewhat awkwardly. Should I wave? Hug them? The card says shake hands but that feels dumb. Oh, I got it! She raises her hands, but then realizes she about to do finger guns and freezes. Her awkward smile gets even more awkward, if that’s possible, and she lowers her hands. I’m a disaster.

Azeria was surprised the group didn't demand her to put away the weapons, so, naturally, Azeria put away her weapons. She turned the safety off her gun, placing the thing back into a holster strapped on her belt. She could tell this poor soul was about to keel over with anxiety, so Azeria decided to be right nice to her, it'd change her tone a bit. She held out her right hand for a firm handshake, saying in a warm voice, "Hello Hentient. It's a pleasure to meet you, I pray you are doing well?"

Vanessa stares with interest. "I think I'm going to like you. Can I have one?"

Xaoth pegs another soldier in the head, his gun clicking after another shot fired. With a grunt, he flipped out a strange, disk-like cartridge out the back of the gun where the hammer would usually be, and clicked a new one into place, continuing to fire as if reloading hadn't been any hindrance at all. "If you can find another Size Distortive Epic DNA sample and a couple million dollars to pay for the plasma bolts."

[Vapor she/her]

"Oh. Well then, guess not. Suppose I have to settle with this baby," she says, patting her rifle and shooting a soldier, barely missing the head but getting the ear.

gah! "I- um. Doing well. Thanks." Hentient said, taking her hand. "Sooooo anyway, should we be helping? I feel like we should be helping. I know I don't look like it but I'm a good hand to hand fighter when I need to b-" Hentient was cut off by a series of loud noises inside the compound. She could see bright flashes of... Something. "whats the plan again? I may not have powers but I can be helpful if I know the plan"

"Escape, I guess. I think we need to get over the fence." Harmony points to the fence surrounding the compound.

Is the fence just like a backyard fence, or is it like a prison type fence? Also, what compound are we near? Forgive me if this was mentioned earlier on this thread, I think I must have missed it.

 

[Mist she/her]

Quote

It's a prison-type fence. 

Tria has been watching the guards, preparing for action. She runs over to the fence. "Come on!" She leaps onto a field and launches herself over the fence. 

[Condensation she/her]

Harmony gasps and pulls away from Vanessa. "Do I have to do that?" she queries nervously.

[Vapor she/her]

Vanessa shakes her head. "I'm an Epic. I can fly." She puts Harmony on her back and flies over the fence, shooting a soldier at the top.

[Condensation she/her]

Harmony clings to Vanessa. "What's--an--Epic?" she says, out of breath.

Agh, I'm so sorry that I keep leaving this thread. Where is DQ currently? Did anything happen to her? Should I just make a new character? I don't know what to do.

Xaoth appears by the others. "Poof! I'm here now!"

"Hi," Harmony said shakily.
