Re: Port Vega: Academy - Sadie's arrival (Sadie, OPEN)

 

(OOC: There are no security guards. So maybe she simply walked in the front door or rang the bell? Want to adjust that?)

(Sadie)

Sadie Logan knew she was being followed the moment she stepped off the train in Port Vega and made her way out of the station.

She caught a glimpse of her pursuers, both dressed in coats too heavy for the weather here and wearing ballcaps and sunglasses. They were feds, she had no doubt about that. They'd likely been?watching?the train station, waiting for her to come off the?11:15 from New Augusta.

Walking along through the busy train station, Sadie pulled out her phone and called up a map. She was a strikingly beautiful woman, with long raven-black hair, blue eyes and an athletic, yet shapely body. Dressed in a long black duster and wearing a baseball cap, she was doing the best she could to avoid detection ¨C but the government was determined to bring her in¡­and they wouldn¡¯t give up.

Locating the place she was trying to reach, Sadie pinned it on the map and stepped out of the terminal and onto the busy street outside, where she began looking for a cab.

Without turning around to look, she sensed the two agents following her step out onto the sidewalk and move into positions a few feet behind her, one to either side. Sadie saw a cab pull up and saw there was no one who immediately needed it, so she started toward the yellow vehicle, knowing full well she would not reach the cab before the men behind her made their move.

Ten feet from the cab, she could feel the first one move up on her and she spun around, just in time to see a black-dressed man rush at her, a sparking stun baton gripped in his hand as he brought it up to swing at Sadie.?

The man swiped at her with the baton, both times the young woman dodged his weapon with lightning fast speed and on his third attempt to strike she caught his arm, yanked it violently back toward his torso and forced the electrical tip of the baton onto his chest.

After the man was violently jolted by the electrical charge, he dropped the baton and fell to the ground vibrating from the shock. Sadie didn't stop long enough the assess his condition as the second man came at her, also wielding a shock baton.?

He swiped at her with the weapon, which once again she nimbly sidestepped, then she chopped the edge of her hand down on his forearm, causing his hand to go numb prompting him to drop the baton. She then launched a kick up into his midsection, doubling him over and propelling him across the street and onto the hood of an approaching car. The vehicle slammed on its brakes, causing the man to roll off onto the street.

From the shadows, a third attacker appeared and raised a pistol with a long barrel, a weapon Sadie identified as a dartgun, probably fitted with a tranquilizer tip. She charged at the man, legs carrying her faster than most normal humans could run. The man's eyes widened as he took aim, realizing he would only get one shot.

As he pulled the trigger, Sadie came in under his aim and tackled him around his midsection, propelling them both several yards until they landed on the pavement, directly in front of an SUV which had to slam on its brakes to avoid hitting them.

The man, winded from the impact, was unable to resist as Sadie pulled herself up so she was sitting on his chest before she started pummeling his face with repeated blows from her fists. After several punches, the man's face was bloodied and bruised, his nose shattered and one eyeball bulging from his face after she broke the orbital socket of his skull.

"You killed him!" a young teenager on the sidewalk shouted as she stood up with blood on her fists. "Holy shit!"

Sadie grimaced. Killing had not been her intention but she sometimes couldn't control herself when the rage took her. The dark-haired girl looked around and saw no one else coming at her, but her gaze did fall upon a dark sedan parked alongside the road with its driver door wide open. It was the direction the third man had come from, so she deduced it was likely his car.

With the cab now long gone, the driver spooked by the fight he'd witnessed involving what he thought would be his next fare, Sadie decided?to take the car. Fortunately, it was still running with the keys in the ignition. She jumped behind?the wheel, closed the door and raced off down the street.

In a holder mounted on the dash was the goon's cellphone, a Google map displayed which she immediately reset to take her to the place she wanted to go to. A school for people like her, those with special powers.?

Several minutes later, Sadie watching her rearview the whole way, the car pulled up outside the Academy for the Extraordinarily?Gifted. She got out, grabbing the man's phone as she stepped out of the vehicle. As she stood up, the phone rang and she looked at the display.

"Agent Gray" was the name that came up on the phone. Glaring at it, Sadie swiped the answer button and held it to her ear, "I'm sorry, the asshole who owns this phone just had his face beat in. Can I take a message?"

"Killing that man was a big mistake, Ms. Logan," the voice on the other end of the line replied, calmly yet with a cold overtone. "We know where you are tanks to the GPS on that phone. You think you'll be safe there?"

"I do," she said, walking toward the entrance of the school. "You won't come here. They won't cooperate with you. The government is no friend of people like me."

"Perhaps," Gray said. "Perhaps not. You'd be surprised what some people, even people like you, will do when properly motivated. Money. Blackmail. Threats. Anything is possible, Sadie."

Sadie was quiet a moment. Maybe she should have run farther away. But this had been her plan and she wasn't going to abandon it now. Raising the phone back to her mouth she responded, "Perhaps."

She clenched her fist and crushed the phone in her hand. Once it was destroyed, Sadie dropped it into the street and walked up to the main gate of the academy where she was greeted by a security guard.?

"Can I help you?" the guard asked.

"I'd like to become a student here," Sadie said with a smile. "Can you help me?"

Port Vega: Academy - Sadie's Character Sheet

 

Sadie Logan

Age: 22

Height: 5¡¯9¡±, Weight: 125 lbs

Hair: Black, worn long, Eyes: Blue

Sadie was born and raised in Dalton City, located 150 miles west of Port Vega. As a teenager, she began to develop abilities that were unusual and quickly she was labeled a freak by many of her classmates. It was so bad her parents took her out of classes and home-schooled her.

When she was 18, the government tried to recruit her into a secret military training program where they wanted to turn her into a living weapon, but she refused. That refusal caused the government to harass she and her family ¨C eventually causing her father to end up in prison on trumped up tax evasion charges and her mother being left to shut down the family business after the scandal left it bankrupt.

Sadie left at this time and went to Port Vega to seek out a place she¡¯d heard of called the Academy of the Extraordinarily Gifted.

She has exhibited super strength, speed, and the ability to regenerate almost instantly from injuries.

A Mutant Love Story (Gen, Akira)

 

(Akira)

Akira shook his head, as he moved his leg away from Gen's at the same time that Gen moved. "Okay, okay. I am not a science experiment. Don't need to tell me what my body is doing, there friend." It sent shivers down his spine. "That's just creepy." He turned his attention back to his food. "I can move through things. Jump pretty high and land on my feet if I fall from a height. Kind of like a cat." He told Gen of his abilities. "Not sure what else I can do...still figuring it all out myself."

(Gen)

"Sorry," Gen mumbled at Akira's reaction, quickly pulling back. "I'm still learning the social stuff. Didn't mean to be creepy."

"I can't move through things. I can jump higher than an ordinary guy but nothing really spectacular. I can do a lot of other things, though," he said, brightening a bit. "I can alter my body to adapt to different environments. Like climbing sheer walls or breathing underwater. I can grow wings that allow me to fly. And I can even--" He stopped suddenly, not wanting to mention something that the other boy might also find creepy. "I know a lot of what went into my design," he finished finally, looking away. "The scientists were always testing me to make sure it all worked.

The redheaded vampire was surprised when Hollywood told her to wait outside and stepped into the room where the would-be?assassin was being held. Scarlett was a little annoyed at the move but?was still growing accustomed to the situation she'd suddenly been thrust into. Did she have the full powers of a Protector? Who was Hollywood and what kind of authority did she have here??
Inside the room she heard the water come on and frowned. It was a famous way to drown out the sound of a conversation inside a room when someone was listening at the door.
For now Scarlett would wait, but she was now suspicious?of Hollywood and her role in this whole thing.

Elisiana sat up ¡°Did you? He¡¯s the reason why I¡¯m here. He¡¯s a Protector now. You must be so proud.¡± She said.?She watched the woman before her. There was so much unsaid between them. So the question was so loaded. ¡°Oh there is so much I¡¯d like to say to you.¡± The younger vampire said ¡°but why should we keep company waiting. By all means send her in let¡¯s see what she can do.¡±

Hollywood shook her head, "no, he is an emissary?for some distant Prince and came to pay respects for his Prince to the newly awaken on here. The one you tried to assassinate. Before tonight, I haven't seen either one of you in what, decades. I have been searching for you, but every time I followed a lead and thought I was close, you were both gone." She still hadn't moved from the door.

"Elisiana, I don't want to let the interrogator?in. I want you to tell me who sent you. Avoid all of the...pain and torture that you will no doubt deliver to the interrogator. She is not as aged as you and I are. Let me help you."

Elisiana

?¡°Really? Hmm, that¡¯s not what he told me. But then people lie. Electing to look you in the face and tell you what they need to tell to manipulate and gaslight.¡±

At Hollywood¡¯s words Elisiana smiled. ¡°Mummy¡­you wound me.¡± She said placing her hand over her heart. ?¡°I don¡¯t believer I asked for your help. Let the young gun in so she can do you job. after all do you really want her reporting to your master that you interfere in her investigation. ¡°

"They tested me for responses to all kinds of stimuli.?

"And from there, actual touch, like skin brushing against skin," he went on, shifting slightly so that the bare parts of their thighs made contact.? He let the contact linger, staring into Akira's eyes.? "I can pick up responses like the ones you're giving off now," he murmured.? "Like the way your breathing has suddenly altered, and the pupils in your eyes have started to dilate a bit.? And the way you're starting to emit subtle pheromones," he added, leaning nearer and sniffing gently close to the other youth's neck, "even though you probably cannot smell them yourself."

As he stepped into the room, talons changed from claws to fingers. Scales change to skin and hair. His once large, hulking beast like body began to transform into that of man. The room around them changed from stonewalls to open fields.?

?

often in the distance a beautiful, raven haired girl, with lovely skin the color of rich milk, chocolate, and crystal clear eyes ran from him, barefoot in the clearing, the sound of her laughter tingling on the wind like in times of a bell.

?

¡°Catch me if you can,¡± her voice, said laughingly

?

?

(Angus)

?

"Thank you, m'lady!" Angus gushed, grabbing her hand and kissing it profusely in gratitude.? "You are doing a good and generous thing.? I must let the Master know at once!"? And with that, he bowed and hurried away.? Please, he prayed as he ran down the corridor to where he thought the Dragon might be, let the Master for once be governed by his calmer better nature and not by his angry bestial one.??

?

When Angus reached the Dragon's quarters though, he found them empty.? He could feel the Dragon's presence in the keep beyond the room though and quickly went off in search, but even as he did so, he sensed a change occurring, the beast aura shifting and fading and an older aura - a human one - taking its place.? Was it possible, he wondered.? The old servant quickened his pace, following the luring feeling to a less familiar part of the keep, where older memories dwelled.

?

(The Dragon)

?

Gazing down at his restored human self in wonder, the man looked back up again when he heard the woman - Jerusha? - calling to him teasingly.? Could it be her?? Somehow, impossibly, her?? And he once again, impossibly, himself?

?

"Jerusha!" he called out, running after the woman in a green open field, the grass lush and familiar under his bare feet.? The field seemed endless, time flowing in stretches, sometimes the distance keeping the woman far away, but other times tantalizingly close, just out of reach.?

?

And then suddenly he caught her, turning her about to face him.? She felt real, solid and warm beneath his touch, her eyes clear and bright meeting his.? He touched her hair, the dark strands fine and silken in his fingers.? "I've missed you," he murmured, burying his face in her abundant locks.? "Please let this not be a dream.? Please... stay."

Scarlett)
The redheaded vampire was surprised when Hollywood told her to wait outside and stepped into the room where the would-be?assassin was being held. Scarlett was a little annoyed at the move but?was still growing accustomed to the situation she'd suddenly been thrust into. Did she have the full powers of a Protector? Who was Hollywood and what kind of authority did she have here??
Inside the room she heard the water come on and frowned. It was a famous way to drown out the sound of a conversation inside a room when someone was listening at the door.
For now Scarlett would wait, but she was now suspicious?of Hollywood and her role in this whole thing.

(Hollywood)
When Eli called her mommy she flinched a little. She knew that Eli knew that term and the way she used it was not appropriate, but she didn't move from the doorway. "So, you were sent to assassinate?the Prince. I ran into your brother, Ari, a little while ago. There is a vampire interrogator?in the hall, waiting to come in, but I wanted to see you first. Anything you wish to say before I let her in?" Hollywood was keeping it professional for now. She was never one to coddle her childer, but she did care about them and she hoped the concern in her voice was sounding through.

?Elisiana)

Elisiana sat up ¡°Did you? He¡¯s the reason why I¡¯m here. He¡¯s a Protector now. You must be so proud.¡± She said.?

She watched the woman before her. There was so much unsaid between them. So the question was so loaded. ¡°Oh there is so much I¡¯d like to say to you.¡± The younger vampire said ¡°but why should we keep company waiting. By all means send her in let¡¯s see what she can do.¡±

Re: A Mutant Love Story (Gen, Akira)

 

?

(Akira)

?

Akira listened and smiled at Gen when he said he liked to be touched. "Well, if that is the case." He said and scooted a little closer to the lad, letting his thigh be right next to Gen's. "What kinds of stimuli?" He wondered what all the boy had been through. "Doesn't sound very pleasant."

?

(Gen)

?

"They tested me for responses to all kinds of stimuli.? Physical proximity, for example," Gen said, glancing down to where Akira's bare thigh was now so close that even without actually touching, the androgyne could feel its nearness and the heat coming off of it.? "And from there, actual touch, like skin brushing against skin," he went on, shifting slightly so that the bare parts of their thighs made contact.? He let the contact linger, staring into Akira's eyes.? "I can pick up responses like the ones you're giving off now," he murmured.? "Like the way your breathing has suddenly altered, and the pupils in your eyes have started to dilate a bit.? And the way you're starting to emit subtle pheromones," he added, leaning nearer and sniffing gently close to the other youth's neck, "even though you probably cannot smell them yourself."

?

Realizing he might be going too far, Gen drew back a bit, blushing slightly and averting his gaze.? "Actually, it could be very pleasant," he murmured.? "Sometimes, anyways."

Re: Raconteur City: At The Midnight Society (Scarlett, NPC Prince Vespasian, Hollywood, Elisiana)

 

(Hollywood)
Hollywood stood outside the cell door for a moment trying to decide what to do. Finally, she turned to Scarlett. "I want to speak with the prisoner for a moment. Please wait out here." She said and then opened the door slightly and slipped inside. Once the door was closed she moved to the small sink inside and turned the water one to drown out hers and Eli's words from the vampire on the other side.

"Elisiana, I am turning on the lights." She said before doing so, as it was almost pitch black and didn't want to cause either one of them sudden night blindness. As the lights switched on, Hollywood closed her eyes some to allow the light to slowly enter them. She looked around and found Eli sitting on the cot. "Hello, Elisiana."

Re: Raconteur City: Family Business (Victoria, Ragnvall)

 

(Victoria)
Victoria slowed down as she entered. She knew they were some in the colony who thought she had no right to be here. Or that she was a trader or a disgrace to her people. ¡°After what happened the last time I thought it was best to stay away. How are you Ragnvall?¡±

(Ragnvall)
He turned and walked with her as they headed towards the main meeting hall. "I am well. Things here have been pretty quiet. How is your brother? Causing trouble, I am guessing." He said with a chuckle.

¡°Draven, I think you¡¯re over reactions. I¡¯m fine.¡± She said stroking his cheek. ¡°But you¡¯re?right. I should see a physician. I don¡¯t know how far along I am pregnant. Or if the baby is healthy. And I did have those complications before, so I¡¯ll be good to be sure to make sure I¡¯m not having them again.¡±

(Draven)
With a smile, Draven began guiding them towards the town's physicians. "As for my....Damian. I have decided to give him a chance to prove himself to me and hired him on as part of the crew. He agreed and that is that. We will see if he is to be trusted. If he gets Bridgett home safely, that will be one test he passes." He said to her as he took her hand.
