63n3515 - Chapter 1: Cartel Chronicles (New, Open IC)

[Reselia]

The black car shimmered as it pulled in the light around itself while mocking its surroundings through its beauty. "Why we stopping?"

"Were here. Time for you to earn your stripes or whatever it is you supers wear these days. Now, get out of my car!"

Tabitha put one foot out the door and then fell to the ground because the driver pulled away before she was completely out of the car. "Damn driver! I should..." She thought with malicious intent without knowing why the driver would have sped off in the first place. This area was not completely safe for wandering people. "Well where are they at?" A few moments passed while she stood there on the sidewalk in a black standard jumpsuit provided in the starter hero package along with a dog tag with her information on it.

---

"That's it!?" she asked when opening it back at the facility. "Yes. That should be all you need. You have the power to get what you need better than before so anything else is redundant."

---

Then for a moment she felt as if someone somewhere was watching her from afar. "Hmm..." she thought starting to walk randomly around clacking her heels to see if she could start to pinpoint the observer through absorbing the sound waves like bats are able to do naturally. She soon pinpointed the direction where a possible onlooker could be because, the reflecting energy from the sound waves felt slightly strong in their echo in the way it would have been if it were an animal of sorts.

Tabitha then continued her facade of looking like she had no idea what she was doing there and just out for a stroll until she reached a distance where you could easily identify someone by facial features before saying aloud, "So are you done spying on me or are we going to talk for a bit?"

Jane had grown bored of Greene and had randomly teleported with a Black Hole. She'd ended up on Palm Beach, loitering around when a black car drove up and deposited someone - possibly a superwoman? superman? No, she was female. Jane followed her for a bit - carefully encasing herself in a gravity field of air to avoid being easily spotted.

However, when the woman turned round, Jane realised she must have been listening to the sound she'd been making... while she had covered herself up, she hadn't cushioned her feet from the ground - those strange dog tags and the jumpsuit marked her out as different though... and these days, different normally meant superpowers. She'd have to be careful here, just in case.
"Hi, I'm Jane. I'd like to talk... if we can agree not to start fighting each other, I suppose.

[CoolLand]

"I am a guard, just a guard, for a Mr. Poulos. Do you know him? Do you wish to see him?", asked one of the guards, to the strange woman, with her jumpsuit, and dog tags...

[Mighty Asgard]

"It's done." He said coldy without emotion. "Send me the list."

The elderly man started pressing buttons on his cellphone, soon having compiled the list in an e-mail sent to Simon. "You should receive the list momentarily," he answered, "have fun." He then ended the call, placing the cellphone back in his pocket. Mostly everything was in motion now, only the mayor needed to be dealt with. And one of him was already dealing with that.


Meanwhile the Josh in George's house was quite giddy with excitement, having intangibly and invisibly followed George and Veronica to the hidden weapons cache. Most of these weapons were probably completely illegal, no matter how many friends you had in high places, and once it was time for it the chief of police would have to send some men here to investigate. He laughed to himself as he started gathering up a pile of guns, preparing to share them with the less fortunate of the city of Miami. Perhaps the fine fellows of the federal detention center in Miami would appreciate some new toys, which would also work to help the cartels in Miami since most of the detainees there were cartel goons. All in all a good way to further his plans for Miami.

It would only take him a few minutes to gather the guns, but if there was some kind of alarm in there he might well be detected and someone could arrive to try to stop him.

Meanwhile the Josh in George's house was quite giddy with excitement, having intangibly and invisibly followed George and Veronica to the hidden weapons cache. Most of these weapons were of course completely illegal, no matter how many friends you had in high places, and once it was time for it the chief of police would have to send some men here to investigate. But in the meantime he supposed he might as well spread some of them to the needy of Miami, like the inmates at the federal detention center. He was sure they would appreciate some toys, especially since most of them were cartel goons. Soundlessly he disappeared, along with most of the handguns in the vault.

A few seconds later a rather large pile of guns were deposited on one of the floors of the detention center, and all the cells were suddenly opened. Minutes later a full-scale breakout was in progress, gunfire and panicked screams echoing throughout the building. As he returned to the house an idea struck him, and one of him went to the nearest high-security mental hospital.

OOC: that is godmodding, only George could get in it, additionally those weapons are legal in Florida, as well as most other states, and secondly the police in Palm Beach are not cartel goons, not one, because there arent any cartels there, it is far from Miami, it is as far from Miami, as New York is to Boston. Now, can you please, edit, or hopefully, delete your godmodding post, or I shall just fire an IGNORE CANNON at all of your future posts.

"Hi, I'm Jane. I'd like to talk... if we can agree not to start fighting each other, I suppose.

"I am a guard, just a guard, for a Mr. Poulos. Do you know him? Do you wish to see him?", asked one of the guards, to the strange woman, with her jumpsuit, and dog tags...

"Wait...wait...wait, hold your horses partners, I can't understand a single word y'all said. One at a time! You first Gal. Then you mister." stated Tabitha while she thought it highly funny that two people reveal themselves from the shadows at the same time.

"Heh. I don't look that...I mean does Hannah look that menacing to people with her flashy Texan stature. I'm jealous." Tabitha thought about herself in comparison to herself as Hannah.

After the two repeated themselves, Tabitha replied, "Hello," with both hands reached out for a handshake, "I'm Hannah, Hannah Murphy nice to meet you kindly. The both of ya."

[CoolLand]

The guard thought to himself, Ugh, more hick scum, I wish I was back in Britain.

Then, he replied...

"Would you care to see a Mr. Poulos? Do you know him perhaps? Do you care to see him?", the guard said with his British accent

Then, he replied...

"Would you care to see a Mr. Poulos? Do you know him perhaps? Do you care to see him?", the guard said with his British accent

"You work for Mr. Poulos? Goodbye then." said Jane. Instantly, a Black Hole erupted and disappeared, leaving no hint any guard had ever been there.

The other guards let Hannah in, and closed the gate, and called the police, soon they arrived, ready to arrest Jane...

"Let's see Mr. Poulos, eh? Are you perhaps, another super?", asked a guard, as they entered the house...

[CoolLand]

"It's done." He said coldy without emotion. "Send me the list."

All in all a good way to further his plans for Miami.

It would only take him a few minutes to gather the guns, but if there was some kind of alarm in there he might well be detected and someone could arrive to try to stop him.

Luckily, there was a detector, a motion detector...

"MOTION DETECTED! MOTION DETECTED! MOTION DETECTED! LOCAL POLICE FORCE CALLED!", hummed in, and around the safe room, which was going to begin it's standard measures when motion was detected in the room, without access being granted...

It was going to heat the safe room up, hot enough to cook a turkey, hot enough to cook a turkey very quickly, soon the room heated up, all the way up to around 300 degrees F, and the guns got hot to the touch, so hot that some began to melt, slightly...

[Reselia]

"And so now they're in the house. Well, that'll be simple." Jane decided against going straight in... first she would try that dice-size cube she had found. Going somewhere rather nice (in the KutlaKeng dimension), she lay back and pressed the button.

In front of her, a huge, huge database spiralled out for miles in every direction. A synthetic voice appeared, and asked her a question: "What do you require?" In answer, Jane asked "What is the database a database of?" The voice replied "It is a complete compilation of all that will ever be, is being, or has been. It contains all the powers of the universe, the language of the Soul of The World, the weaknesses of Gods. Contained within this one cube, the answer to creating an alternate universe lies. Now think that this is the only cube of millions which survived trillionella, surviving the destruction of planets; universes; every dimension; this one item has survived the march of four hundred trillion years. Now it is in your hands. Be wise - I can say no more." said the cube.

Jane was bewildered... she could do nothing, as she lay back and fainted. How much time passed, no one will ever know, but Jane had a great epiphany - the Cube must be safeguarded, the secrets of the universe contained, the good and evil of all balanced... but something threatened the age-old state of peace. The war between the Cartels and Good. Should it succeed... the consequences would be unthinkable. Jane returned once more to Earth... but she felt sure she would soon be confronted.

"Well balls," Josh said to himself, "why did I think it would be a good idea to move all of this by hand? Silly me. At least most of his guns should be ruined by it, serves him right, the stereotypically British bastard." Seeing no reason to stay there, since it would be rather pointless to deliver ruined guns to the prisoners, he appeared back in the living room again.

Giving guns to the inmates might not have been such a good idea anyways, the cartels already had enough guns, and a few more thugs with peashooters wouldn't do them much good. Perhaps he would be better served by visiting the nearest high-security mental hospital and giving the patients a bit of fresh air. It would certainly provide more amusement, and unlike regular thugs clinically insane thugs had a certain flair to them, something a normal criminal just couldn't match. It wasn't a proper crime until it was committed while laughing maniacally after all. One of him went to handle that issue, while he went outside to investigate the gravitational distortion he had noticed.

A brief moment later he came upon Jane, who was looking rather bewildered and holding a strange cube of some sort.

"Hey Jane," he said cheerfully, ignoring the sirens in the distance, "what's that?"

"The key to unlocking, creating, destroying the secrets of the universe and of course the Universe itself. In other words, you can tell it isn't that important. Move along now, Josh!" replied Jane.

[Mighty Asgard]

"The key to unlocking, creating, destroying the secrets of the universe and of course the Universe itself. In other words, you can tell it isn't that important. Move along now, Josh!" replied Jane.

"Sounds pretty important to me," Josh answered, "you should probably keep it far away from George, that guy is an utter psychopath. Did you know he keeps a large cache of weapons in his house? And I'm talking enough weapons to arm a small army. I think he's planning something. So risking him getting his hands on that thing, probably not a good idea."

"Mmmmmm.... perhaps not a good idea to let him anywhere near this. Don't mention it to him - he'd be a pain to have to defeat. I mean, there are only twenty-four hours in a day! Anyway, I have to kill some trolls and organise a meeting with Luck to turn against the Angel Forces of Sudak'altir. See you around!" Jane popped out of existence again (of course, she reappeared in another existence).

[Planeta de los Muertos]

Veronica woke up. She yawned and stretched to regain vitality she lost during the stressful events of before; this was but the tip of the iceberg for her (no pun intended). After preparing a quick meal for herself, she walked over to a window and saw something strange...she had witnessed Josh talking to Jane a few yards away. Veronica could not hear their conversation, however. Even if she wished to do so, that meeting ended as soon as Jane spun the air behind her so intensely, she tore a temporary hole into space and hopped right in! Veronica gasped, not knowing that she could do such a thing and still be in one piece. With new superhumans arising everyday, the laws of physics were broken chain by chain. The blonde icicle asked herself this: what were Josh and Jane talking about? And who was the new girl that managed to get inside the gates leading up to the front door?

Veronica rushed over to the possibly hungover George. She shook him repeatedly with no luck; she decided to send literal chills down his spine by encrusting his nape and back with frost breath.

"George! Wake up and take a look outside!"

"George! Wake up and take a look outside!"

"AHH! What the hell...", said George, as he looked at the situation below...

He ran downstairs, down two flights of stairs, down two additionally floors, George ran to the indoor kennel, and released five rottweilers on Josh, who was on the lawn.
"Come on dogs! Bite the bad man! Sick him!", said George, as the dogs pounced on Josh...

George ran back upstairs, and went onto the safe room, grabbed a gun, which were still intact, luckily, and ran out to the balcony, and pointed the gun at Josh, and said, "What in the bloody hell are you doing here! How did you get here! If you don't answer I willie these fuckinf caps, in your fucking ugly ass!", said Georgr, as he shot next to Josh, as warning shots...

Josh smiled at the dogs as they attacked him, finding their blind stupid loyalty almost commendable. He didn't hurt them, it wasn't their fault their owner was an idiot and he didn't want to punish them for it. By the time George came running they were unconscious on the ground, not a single one bearing any wound. The rich douche, being a bit of an idiot, started shooting his gun and screaming, seemingly having forgotten who Josh was.

"You invited me, remember?" he said snidely, "you gave me a ride in your car, and your butler was kind enough to offer me some very tasty ostrich egg omelet. And ugly, really? Is puerile name calling really called for?"

As another warning shot struck next to him he sighed, "Georgie, my boy, stop that or you'll wake the neighbors. Wouldn't want that now, would we? Did breaking into your vault make you so cranky? People messing with your stuff is a bit of a sensitive spot for you, is it?"

[Somalian Pirate States]

Zilka tried to go through a break in the defense, but by the time she saw an opening. It appeared everything had settled down, and she saw Geogre walk away from the scene. She sighed, an opening for her to see if spirits could truly be controlled and the chance had been lost. Slightly annoyed she walked back to where the car had been parked, only to see it gone. Totally missing with no note or ticket or warning.
"Oh good lord George is going to kill me."
Realizing she didn't have anybody's number, and not wanting to put her cousin in danger by asking him to pick her up. She decided to walk, 'hey someone'll will find me at some point right?', she thought.

Will saw that there had been a ruckus of some sort, but it had apparently settled down.

"Hey, Zilka, ummm... do you, ya know, have a ride?"

And, as always, his eyes shot down at his shoes.

[CoolLand]

George hated being called Georgie, he fired a final warning shot, and said, "Oh, right, right. How did you know that my vault was broken into? How do you know about the vault? And who were you even talking to on the lawn?", asked George

[Ricot]

Will saw that there had been a ruckus of some sort, but it had apparently settled down.

"Hey, Zilka, ummm... do you, ya know, have a ride?"

And, as always, his eyes shot down at his shoes.

"I don't know man, I do have my invisible car down the street," She laughed at her own joke, "I'm just joking with you. Yeah I ride will be nice, don't know where to go though."

Veronica watched the scene unfold carefully. She didn't want to do something reckless as she hadn't the slightest idea of what Josh could do with his mutation.

[Katyuscha]

Simon received the list and quickly skimmed over it. One name caught his eyes in particular.

"Ta-boo." He said somewhat surprised.

Simon once went to Ta-boo for his birthday once. It was mainly just him and a few other guys from the station, but he enjoyed it. It was a,shame to find out that such a nice place was filled with so much corruption.

"Alright chaps, first stop is a little place called Ta-boo."

"Yes sir" said a group of 25 copies who all hopped into a SWAT truck and head off to the restaurant."

1 hour later
The truck arrived just outside of the restaurant and noticed something strange. There were already policemen surrounding the building and when they saw Simon pull up, the leading officer approached.

"What are you guys doing here?" He questioned in confusion as Simon hopped out of the drivers seat. "Look, we've already got the situation under control, tell your boys they can... wait, you're not from Palm Beach."

Suddenly, Simon grabbed the officer, converting him into a copy. The other copies quickly jumped out of the truck and pounced on the remaining officers, converting them as well. After all the officers were now under control, they stormed the building and gathered all of the employees. The owner of the restaurant was brought before Simon on his knees.

"What are you doing!" Shouted the owner as he was dragged on his knees. "This is a civil rights violation. You can't do this to me! It's against the law!"

Simon chuckled.

"Who do you work for?" He questioned.

The man was silent. Simon disappointed in the man motioned to a guard and then kneeled down before the man.

"I'll ask you again. Who do you work for?"

After the man refused to answer a gain, the guard wipped out his tazer, placed it against the back of the mans head and flipped it on. The man squirmed and twitched as the electricity surged through his body. The copy pulled the tazer away and Simon grabbed the man by his hair and pulled him back up onto his knees.

"I'm going to ask you... one more time. Who are you working for?" Asked Simon annoyed.

Simon leaned foward and the man whispered to him. After hearing what the man had to say, Simon stood up and said something to another copy. He then pulled out his gun and shot the man in the head.

"Finish off the others and burn the place to the ground." Simon left the restaurant and got into the truck along with a number of copies.

"Everything burns." He said and drove off.

"Hmmmm.... yet another imbalance. Better go right it then." With that, Jane blacked to Ta-Boo. The police officers saw her, but she awaited their next move.

"Hey, Zilka, ummm... do you, ya know, have a ride?"

And, as always, his eyes shot down at his shoes.

"I don't know man, I do have my invisible car down the street," She laughed at her own joke, "I'm just joking with you. Yeah I ride will be nice, don't know where to go though."

"Invisible car... nice one (chuckles). Here comes my car, but it's got nothing on your 'invisible one'...just an armored Escalade, nothing special. Mr. Poulos would not even let it on his property... too low class for him, he said, (shakes head). You know... I haven't figured out if I like him or not. People with power and money that flaunt it are so... ya know, annoying? Well, hop in, and tell me where you want to go, please."
