Gods Among Us [Superhero] (IC/Open)

[Talion Union]

Eddie looked up, a bit smile on his face. "The music is my life, man!" His words were nearly lost over the deafeningly loud music. "But, I'm open to fight if you are, pal!" His tone was cheerful and excited.

Black hand simply pressed a button on his right gauntlet, then the large 60mm Barrel of the Destroyer was visible through the broken open window of the Music Store.

"I'd surrender if i were you"

"Fancy gun you got there! But I've seen better." Eddie became a shaft of bright light and exploded through the buildings ceiling, ending up on the roof. "I'm not pushover, buddy!"

Black Hand grappeled to the top of the roof, getting up there he looked at Eddie, "Neither am I". Black Hand brandished his steel brass knuckles.

[Scotatrova]

"I could be up for this. But what's in it for me?"

"You would get a fair share of the spoils, whether it be tech, Money, Lot, or simply glory"

Stealth pondered for a minuted before finally making her mind up.
"So what exactly are we planning on doing?"

Breaker chuckled and tossed Stealth a document packet,
"A special Target I've been Eyeing, "the Watcher", from what records show she's very powerful, from what other records show (mostly on social media), she's a bit of asmartass. might be good to knock some sense into her"

Stealth read over it and smiled.
"Oh man. I love beating sense into girls like this. I used to do it when I was young. When are we going?"

[Anowa]

Osteo, Cerberus Facility 27, Cell Block A Hyper Max wing
I lay ther in my own personal hell for what seemed like infinity, in reality it was 3652 days, 14 hours, 12 minutes and 53 seconds. My captors first mistake was keeping me alive, their second was allowing my 'cell' to open and close. Sadly it wouldn't open anytime soon it worked on a magnetic lock that would only close if the entire facility's power as well as the back up generators failed. I continued counting the time of my torment.



Mechanic Wallace, Cerberus Facilty 27, Back up Generator storeroom
I stood in the room waiting for the geothermal plant to give me the all clear to activate the back ups so they could do maintenance, a massive lithium-ion battery hooked up to a few solar panels allowed the whole facility to run without the geothermal plant usually running for almost a day. I say usually because the battery was old as fuck, nearly a decade and it hadn't been replaced, I kept telling the Head Mech to do something but he kept saying it was out of budget, and the 30000 dollars worth of tools we didn't need were.

I sighed as a small buzzer indicated that I was to activate the battery. I walked over to a control panel and flipped a switch, the battery hummed to life and the main power plants shut down a moment later, the room became swamped in red light... for about 5 seconds before a shower of sparks sailed from the top of the construct. A shit load of Klaxons blared and a voice came over the intercom screaming about containment breach. The geothermal plant came back on about 30 seconds too late, I could already hear gunfire from the Hyper max wing, the 50 caliber machine guns could stop the one guy stored there... right? I quickly ran over to the rooms airlock door and sealed it hoping I wouldn't be found.



Osteo
I heard a massive clunk from the sphere encasing me before the pressure on me eased, I heard a voice from outside.

"Oh... Fuck..."

I stood as quickly as I could half a ton of titanium flying back wards as I took in the scene, fifty feet to an exit, six armed guards with battle rifles, and twelve heavy machine gun turrets hanging from the ceiling, unpowered. I grabbed the nearest guard and began draining him all the while using him as a human shield before using his rifle to fire at the other guards, all were dispatched rather quickly. I deftly stripped them of ammo pouches and attached them to myself. bone, growing around them to keep them on my person, a SCAR-H in hand I left the room seconds before the power came back on and the door sealed close, the cameras came back on and the turrets powered on again. I would only have to wait for the resistance of any other security.

Stealth read over it and smiled.
"Oh man. I love beating sense into girls like this. I used to do it when I was young. When are we going?"

Breaker chuckled,
"A little Manor at Long Island, she's a pompous one, the rich and their mansions. I say we go pay her a Visit, Deal?"

Stone

Stone's ears twitched lightly, he had just heard something rather fun that would give him something to do instead of waiting for Laurel to come back.

"Well well. Looks like I'll be able to do something fun today!" He drank another sip from his mug and dropped from the roof, not making any noise, or any damage to the ground.

"Now how should I limit myself... Eh... Probably something with enhanced strength, then... Wind or fire manipulation? Eeeeh... What did Rostam pick again... He picked fire manipulation... That'd make too much damage. Maybe... Cable manipulation? Eh... Against someone who manipulates the Earth, it won't be very useful. Oh I know, spirit energy manipulation. My very own Stand. Yeah, taking this, and power regeneration... After the fight. Yeah, so I can take back my godly behavior like usual." He smiled to himself and modified his internal powers and limits to cut his power down to only a eighth of the half of his power. After all, if a god simply meant fighting other gods, it wouldn't be fun.

"Now where will they come from?" He took the liberty of summoning his sword again, leaving one in the hands of Laurel, but having his own in the lot, after all, they were all originals.

[Dyelli Beybi]

Stone

"You are excused, but if I may, I'd advise you to go back to where he lives. That is, Helsinki, it would be preferable for him, at least he'd have someone to see after all this bullshit. And feel free to keep it. I can always make another one until you're done with the SCP. Although, they won't be the ones to kill Alrick, trust me." The god spoke, he didn't disappear immediately, but simply waited for Laurel to go before leaving himself.

"You'll meet me way more now that you're part of the family, just saying."

Laurel's expression was inscrutable, "I'll need someone to let me in." She pointed out, "I have a duty to my own people as well though. I will probably need to report my findings."

"In any case, I will see you around." She added, not entirely sure how she felt about that. A lar... She dropped gracefully from the roof, landing with feline dexteriry. She dusted herself off then headed for the frobt door to Alice's house,, careful to keep her hands away from weapons and her pace towards the door slow but steady with no sudden movements...

Mr. Grin froze. It peeked out over a kitchen island, the two white orbs of its eyes staring a hole through Alice. She heard a slight giggle, which was in her head. Mr. Grin was beginning to flood her mind with a slowly building cacophony of maddening laughter and whispers, seeking to distract her. It pride open the fridge, and grabbed as much as it could, scooping food items under its cost, storing them within its body. It kept up its mental assault as it looted the kitchen, hoping to keep her from causing it harm.

It was the wrong way to tackle Alice. She smiled at the creature, not looking especially frightened, "No... you're doing it all wrong Cheshire... let me show you."

He had created a psychic connection with her and she used that to push things back at Mr. Grin. It started with ominous organ music to compliment the laughter... ominous for a 1930s monster movie at any rate. Now it just sounded cheesy.

Then she tried something more ambitious, a visual hallucination... in this case Frankenstein's monster, in grainy black and white, standing in the doorway. None of it was all that realistic or frightening, it was just a warning.

"Sit down." She ordered, "I don't begrudge you the food. I am wealthy and you look hungry. You should have asked though, and should not have attacked me." She paused, "If you have treat with me in good will, I will help you."

Mr. Grin took a curious swipe at the hallucinations. It's claws passed through it harmlessly. It turned back, it's eyes fixed on Alice. It climbed over the kitchen counter, it's limbs twisting at inhuman angles. It sat on the counter, staring at her. It said nothing, and sat perfectly still.

[Talion Union]

"Fancy gun you got there! But I've seen better." Eddie became a shaft of bright light and exploded through the buildings ceiling, ending up on the roof. "I'm not pushover, buddy!"

Black Hand grappeled to the top of the roof, getting up there he looked at Eddie, "Neither am I". Black Hand brandished his steel brass knuckles.

Eddie headbutted Black Hand, bringing his head down on the bridge of his nose. He took several steps back, moving in time with the rhythm. "I'll fight you if you want! I took on a goddamn army, I can take you on too!"

[Dyelli Beybi]

Mr. Grin took a curious swipe at the hallucinations. It's claws passed through it harmlessly. It turned back, it's eyes fixed on Alice. It climbed over the kitchen counter, it's limbs twisting at inhuman angles. It sat on the counter, staring at her. It said nothing, and sat perfectly still.

Alice was feeling fairly confident. Yes, she had a bullet hole in her leg, she couldn't really walk and it hurt... a lot, but compared to most fights she'd been in she had come off quite well from the last one, "My name is Alice Kosa... which is funny since you remind me of the Cheshire cat. Seems I have fallen down the rabbit hole."

"You apparently need food, but hunger is only the symptom. What is the disease?" she paused, eyeing the creature. It wasn't trying to eat her yet. On the scale of things that had attacked her, it was definitely at the less violent end, "Tell me what you need and maybe I can help. You obviously aren't entirely human, perhaps not human at all. People like us need to stick together." she said frankly. She motioned about herself at the damaged building, "Otherwise things like this happens."

The shades body contorted and twisted, lowering itself to the floor with out ever looking away. "ClArK." The shade projected the word into her mind, followed by the image of the boy playing outside, sitting in the grass. "HuMaN ChiLD nEedS foOD." It continued gathering food from the kitchen, throwing open various cabinets, scooping it all into its dark body.

It continued gathering food from the kitchen, throwing open various cabinets, scooping it all into its dark body.

"A child?" she winced, trying to stand up and failing, "It is dangerous out there, you should bring him inside... Do you even know how to cook half that stuff?" she asked, "Bring the child here. We will get him fed, there are beds, and it will be warmer in here. In the morning you can move on or stay, as you chose."

She paused. He was probably running from someone... something. The creature probably wasn't used to people of good will, "If you wish proof of my sincerity, you may read my mind. I will not stop you. Unless you attempt to do me harm."

If he chose to take her up on the offer, Mr Grin would realize Alice was interested in him as a potential ally, but he would also realize she was absolutely sincere in everything she had said. Under the skin she was a compassionate person and firmly believed that her powers and money gave her a duty of care to the rest of the world. She wanted to help the child and, perhaps surprisingly, she also wanted to help Mr Grin."

Mr. Grin probed her mind, worming its way through her head. He saw that there was something else, hidden away with her head, something not even she knew about. It ignored it for the moment. It carried its human companion on its back. It set him on the floor, where he scampered behind Mr. Grin, leaning out from behind him.

[Anowa]

"Deal. Lets go."

Stone

Stone's ears twitched lightly, he had just heard something rather fun that would give him something to do instead of waiting for Laurel to come back.

"Well well. Looks like I'll be able to do something fun today!" He drank another sip from his mug and dropped from the roof, not making any noise, or any damage to the ground.

"Now how should I limit myself... Eh... Probably something with enhanced strength, then... Wind or fire manipulation? Eeeeh... What did Rostam pick again... He picked fire manipulation... That'd make too much damage. Maybe... Cable manipulation? Eh... Against someone who manipulates the Earth, it won't be very useful. Oh I know, spirit energy manipulation. My very own Stand.

Anathema
I stood but not three feet away and stared at Stone, tapping my foot with my arms crossed. If I had a face there'd be a very deep scowl on it, "This is a Mortal's fight Stone. It would be best if you didn't interfere... at all." I disappeared from the Kosa manor and made my way to a certain Island.

I popped up in front of a certain family and spoke, "Alright here's your shit back," their equipment found it's way into their rightful places, "And here's your powers back, I hope you enjoyed your stay on Nirn and I hope you had fun." they all found themselves near a certain Cerberus Facility... #27.

Stone

Sighing and returning his own powers back, he spoke, knowing full well that Anathema would hear him.

"For fuck's sake dude, we're on equal ground with powers and yet even when I'm limiting my own powers, you still find a way to ruin it and tell me to fuck off, if I limit myself, what's the problem? I wasn't even immortal or anything, I could've been cut, killed even. Seriously, stop ruining the fun, I've been doing this for several thousand years on various worlds, and you never even lifted a finger!" He still stayed though, his powers were back, but he simply leaned against the main entry and waited for the two blokes to show up.

Alrick

Before he even had time to comprehend what was happening, Anathema showed up and gave back all of their belongings, powers included and were deported near a Cerberus facility.

"Ye wot. Fuck this, ain't staying. Heamet wake your shit, we're leaving." He spoke, obviously not pleased with the location they had landed in.
However, now that he had his powers back, that meant that everyone else did, and now he could have his swords, assuming that Heamet would wake up.

Màen

"Well fucking finally I say, was getting a tad bored on that blasted island, also he said something Nirn if I recall. Even I don't know where that is." She spoke, she rummaged through her coat and found every rune where she had put them before, her weapons too.
"Good, at least he didn't fuck us over. Now we just need Heamet to wake up and we can get the blasted hell out of here."

She ran a scan with a small rune of the place surrounding them.

"Yep, might be a good thing to bail out. We're next to a Cerberus facility and given what they've done back five years ago from now... And from what they've did back in the manor... I'd say it's not really good to stay here for too long."

Heamet

He had been sleeping for seven hours straight, and thankfully was about to wake up, however too groggy to open a safe portal back to Finland, he needed at least an hour to have his body re-calibrate itself so it could open them in the correct directions, last time he tried, he tried going to Germany but ended up in the middle of Russia.

"Wha... Where... What's happening?" He spoke in a rather groggy voice, making him sound way older than he actually was, after a few minutes of explanation from both Alrick and Màen, he shook his head.

"You know that I can't use my portals correctly unless my body is calibrated correctly, you'll have to wait at least fifty more minutes for that. And your phone is out of battery so getting back home with that is out of the question."

[Dyelli Beybi]

Mr. Grin probed her mind, worming its way through her head. He saw that there was something else, hidden away with her head, something not even she knew about. It ignored it for the moment. It carried its human companion on its back. It set him on the floor, where he scampered behind Mr. Grin, leaning out from behind him.

Wearing a dirty dress and with a blood stained bandage wrapped around her left calf probably wasn't the best way to meet a young child, "Hello." she said, leaning down slightly, smiling, "My name is Alice. What's yours?"

"This is my castle. Some bad folk attacked it, but we won. It will need a bit of cleaning, but that can wait until the morning. Are you hungry?" she asked, "We have some dumplings we can heat up for you. There are a few other people in this house, but nobody is going to hurt you."

Alice would have liked to have children one day... but what she wanted more was to make a world where everybody's children would be safe and she doubted very much that she ever would have her own. Her own child would always be at risk because of who she was and odds were definitely in favor of Alice dying young, "After that you can watch TV and when you're tired, we'll find you a bed to sleep in. How does that sound?"

---

On the other side of the house there was a knock on the door that was answered by a tired looking survivor of the fighting, "Alaunus." he said in surprise.

"It is I." she nodded, giving a flourishing bow then walking into the house uninvited. She immediately wrinkled her nose, "This place smells like fire and guns. Where is Commander Kosa? I have business with her."

The guard looked at her for a moment, then set off in the direction of the kitchen, "Right this way."

---

Shane, meanwhile, had booked himself into a Hotel room close to the Cerberus base they had dropped Fox-1 off at. A lot of the fighting had technically happened inside the residence of the Bosnian Ambassador and he was keen to smooth things over both with the Bosnians, who were not at all impressed with being connected with a shootout. The local authorities weren't especially happy about the situation either, but he hoped they would be similarly keen to cover the incident up. A domestic terror organization executing a heavily armed assault on the residence of a foreign ambassador was more than a little embarassing and was quite able to damage their interntional standing.

[Anowa]

Atlas
Zara had been staring at me for the past ten minutes... I have no clue why, I nudged her with my foot a couple times, tried talking to her, but no reaction whatsoever... I hope she wasn't having a stroke. I took another swig of beer to find the bottle empty, I threw it to the side and continued to stare into the forest, 'I should probably look for a rifle soon.'

Catching a certain smell in the air, Mr. Grin tore open a cabinet and hid, compressing itself into the darkness. Clark craweled inside as well, as he went where his guardian went. "BaD. BAd peRsOn NeAR."

Fox-1 entered into a small bookstore. He walked to the counter, and leaned forward. "I'm looking for Ray Bradbury." The clerk smiled. "In the back." Fox-1 stepped behind the counter and entered the back room, where he entered a 9 digit code to activate the service elevator.

[Anowa]

Osteo
I found it certainly helpful that there were painted lines on the floor to show you where to go, like for instance, the blue line guided you to the exit, more specifically, a service elevator which was on lock down, most likely because of the power failure. it was eerily quiet, mostly because most personnel on site were unarmed, and mostly because the ones I came across that were armed I had reduced to black sludge. I walked over to the elevator door and stuffed my bony fingers into the gap and began prying them apart, only to find an empty elevator shaft, however an elevator was coming down.

Breaker
Long Island

Breaker ans Stealth surveyed the Manor from a distance,on an nearby rooftop. Breaker looked at the security fence and the gate. "Minor security from what it seems, though sahe may have security protocals inside". Breaker formed his right hand into a Hammer. 'Alright, here's the Plan. I'll head in through the front and 'knock' on the front door. WHilst she's distracted, head through the back, with luck you'll catch her off guard".

[Scotatrova]

Long Island

Stealth surveyed the mansion, it seemed to be full of security cameras. She pulled out her cross bow and aimed.
"Or. I could do this."
She watched as the arrow hit the security camera. She then took out the rest before putting the crossbow away.
"Now, we can sneak in through the back, the security will be busy dealing with technical difficulties. Let's go."
She then jumped down from the rooftop and made her way to the mansion.
