“We never forget,” Clinio said somberly. “No treacheries or favors are forgotten by the families. Especially not by the New Don.”
“Look Gio, I know you wanted to stay out, but this?” he motioned to the office. “This ain’t for you. We all knew you were destined for big thing, and this isn’t it. You had that god given gift buddy, wasting it being a doctor is a crying shame. I know, you know, the New Don knows it and every other mutha fucker in the city will know it soon. It’ll get out that you back in town. Then it’s just a matta of time before the Russians or the Police or god forbid the Knights show up.”
“But we, we could use you. You’re a trustworthy guy Gio, and with that gift we go places. The Boss is willing to pay big money and do bad things. He can make it worth your while Gio. Come to his house me he’s said already he’s willing to welcome you with open arms.”

The mouth piece sneered at Aacha’s hubris. Even a venerated one like him was not more worthy in the eyes of Dagon than any other Deep One, all of the Dagonites where holy and sacred in the eyes of the Great Father and the Grand Mother. To each other, they might make all kinds of judgments and ranks, but to the Patriarch and Matriarch, they were family and equal.
But it was not the priest’s place to pass judgment. Instead, he opened his mouth, and the sound of the void spilled out into the Sergeants mind. It was a deep thing, an impossible bass note that made even the sternest of minds reel at its touch. A shiver shot through Aacha, and he could barely imagine the power behind such a psychic sense impact.
“You waste your energy child,” thundered Dagon’s voice from the mouth of the priest. “You over estimate the power wielded by the defects of the humans. Mere protoplasmic traces left in their genes elder race and strange residue of the Outer Gods when they gaze on out Tomb World. Nothing more, nothing to threaten us.”
“You wish us to be feared by a race no more technically advanced than the coral we build our houses with. Would you wage war against the flounders who stray too close to our cities? Or the sharks we breed with for sport? No, my son, your energy is best retained here, one day the Sleeper will rise, and then the seas will rise as they mix with the blood of all land creatures. But do not let the humans occupy your thoughts any more than the dust beneath your feet.”

Small Umbrella Shop
Aarav Chandran
The NYMD? Okay, that explained the looks of his visitor but murder? Aarav turned pale and stuttered:
"M-m-m-murder? Di-did you say murder?"
He quickly snatched the cap from her hand and put it back onto the blade as quickly as possible, almost as if he was desperately trying to hide it.
"I-I have nothing to do with murder...I think! I am just making and selling umbrellas and have a few special ones under my counter but that's it!"
When she mentioned the mafia, his face quickly turned red with anger though. What did that woman think who he was? Some weak little owner of a store who tinkered around with umbrellas in his basement just to be robbed of his money by the mafia? He for one was one of the most unlikely targets there was. Little income and a supersmall and inconspicuous storefront. And if there was someone, then he would show him just what an umbrella could do if wielded in the right hands and with one or the other gadget...
But he calmed down as he put things back together in his mind. This woman hadn't come here because somebody had recommended the shop to her. She was from the NYMD and investing in a murder case. And before she had asked some strange questions about his customers. So maybe this wasn't about him? Were his customers murderers? Well, can't trust people in tailored suits and gasmasks. Dealing with that type of people always gets you into trouble. His face's colour returned back to normal but his voice stayed a little reserved:
"No, I don't have trouble with the Italians. But you are investing in a murder case you say? And I guess your suspects are my customers from before, right?
I just remembered a little detail. When the well dressed gentleman left my store and opened the door to the car, a definitely young female voice remarked that she could already feel the sea. Maybe I'm just nitpicking some things but already sounds to me like they were heading in the direction of the sea. Maybe the nearby docks? Remembering the umbrella I sold and the clothing worn by whoever was in the car, I think it should be fairly easy to find someone who might've seen them."

Elinor dived to the ground as Alice went on the offensive. The man she barreled into was thrown across the clearing and smacked hard into a nearby tree. The audible crack of bones could be heard as the man slumped forward into the bushes and began moaning.
As Elinor wrapped her hands around her neck, she glanced up momentarily. Alice had been knocked prone and the other mercenary was advancing pumping shot after shot into her shield. Each was muted by a silencer but still made their ears ring. None of them were powerful enough to break the shield but the soldier was clearly trained well in fighting meta’s and kept up the pressure while advancing.
Alices new recruit saw this too. A black-ops thug walking towards the woman who had shown an interest in her releasing bullet after bullet and intent on breaking her down. So she stood up and thought about lightning.
The explosion that rocked the park was audible for several blocks in every direction. Went the smoke cleared Alice’s shield had crumpled but the only thing left of her attacker were a pile of burnt black Kevlar and gun parts. As she blinked she could see Elinor appearing out of thin air like a ghost materializing. She was swaying and holding her head as though in the midst of a hangover

South Brookly Marine Terminal
Reich Industries Warehouses
Ah, the Reich Industries Warehouses lay there, located at the South Brookly Marine Terminal. However, getting to them would prove difficult. They had been blocked off by police for several weeks now after information had been leaked to the police about bodies in the basement. No idea why the police was still sectioning that part of the Marine Terminal off, but it was obvious that Reich Industries had not been doing business there for a longer time.
However, Johanna was lucky. A pair of sailors just so happened to pass by her, talking about something that would probably make her instantly listen very carefully.
"...and she really had a parasol I tell you! And that even though there wasn't thaaaaaat much sun."
"You say so? Well, lots of strange people running around nowadays. As long as they remain peaceful towards me and I can profit from them, I don't mind."
"Ye, you're right. Still, I wonder what these strange people were up to. Ever asked the Captain?"
"Nah, didn't feel like it. Still don't feel like it. Some deals are better left in the dark. But ya mentioned the Captain which reminds me, we better hurry up else he will skin us alife for coming late again."
"Right, better hurry up."
The pair was heading towards the Bush Terminal Piers, hurrying just like they said.

“It’s not in hospitals because it takes about fifty years to learn,” the Doctor said in a decidedly spanish accent. “That an a procedure like this would cost half a million for the average person, those chemicals were far from cheap.”
The doctor took a final survey of the wound location before motioning that Adrien should lie down while he fetched another device.
“We don’t hate Meta’s. But we understand the risks that come with meta’s using their powers especially in dangerous ways. An analogy might prove helpful. On their own guns are not good or bad, most people use them for sport or hobby and don’t pose any kind of risk. But sometimes they are used to kill other people either for good or bad reasons. However, we don’t let just anyone run around shooting people who have committed crimes do we? We have police who are well trained and accountable. The same can not be said of most Meta’s.”
Concealed in his other handle was a powerful cryo sedative but the doctor ran a small computer device over Adrien for a while as he explained things.
“I can’t speak for you of course but we Knights have seen the harm meta vigilantes can do. Many don’t know the difference between a squatter and a thief, and most can’t control there powers well enough to avoid killing criminals who didn’t deserve it or civilians who just happened to be nearby. You might not mean to hurt civilians but tell me, did you evacuate the area before you showed up? Did you personally call the police for backup? Did you ensure that every building opposite you was most empty before attacking? This was a more clean cut act, but if you had used your powers on a common hood there’s probably a good chance they could die isn’t there? The Knights work well because we consider these kinds of things, vigilantes often don’t or can’t.”
Just as Doctor Heat Death was about to inject him the door hissed open and NUMB’s voiced echoed through. “Doctor there had been a change of plans can you bring Adrien in here?”

“Most of them have gotten wiped out by the Spics and Ruskies,” Clinio said bluntly “He took over the Genovese clan because MS-13 hit him on the streets. But Lucchese and Bonanno both are scrambling to find a leader after a fight with the Columbians. The Colombo’s and Gambino’s have bosses, but they're just kids, promoted because their dads don’t want to deal with the FBI and Knights anymore. They’ll fold soon.”
It was clear a massive power vacuum was opening up. The sheer level of groups and powers organizing against them was staggering, but it seemed that The New Don had stepped up at the most opportune moment. No one would challenge him, who could when the wolves were at their door, and all of the soldiers were dead or too old.
“He’s brought over a bunch of purebloods. Made Men. Folks from Sicily with serious skill. Were training up an army and we’re ready,” There was serious excitement in Clinio’s voice. “And the boss is like you; he’s got powers. I don’t really know how to describe it. It’s like he’s got a guardian angel or something, every time someone's made a move they wind up dead and dismembered before anyone can blink.”

Doctor Heat Death nodded and walked with Diz back to see NUMB. The brain in a jar sat there on a nearby table thrumming with power and malice. Sinister thoughts and designs conjured up from its dark depths.
“Adrien, I think you can still be of some use,” NUMB said. “Despite being a dangerous vigilante with a power that is bound to get you in trouble. I think you can do some good.”
A nearby computer flickered on to display a picture of women in her late forties. She had sleek dark hair and a hawkish nose. The picture looked like it was taken in an alley or perhaps a parking garage given the dark light. She was dressed in a suit but she was meeting with a person dressed in long flowing robes and a pointed inquisitional hat.
“This is Ann Drake. One of the United States main IMF representatives. She is also a member of the Illuminati and before you ask, yes. The Illuminati and the New World Order is a very real group who strive to limit and control the actions of the public. Ms. Drake here has been involved in setting up systems that will steal money from poor countries and put it into the hands of Satanic Magicians. Again, I am deadly serious.”
“She is meeting an informant near the 23 Street Station. I need you to be there at 10:00 and attack them both. Try to kill them if at all possible, and if not then try to maim and injure."

When she was screwed her eyes close in anger and fear for a moment before looking at Alice with a cold expression.
“I don’t have anywhere but my flat. We can go there but I don’t really think it’s the safest but it should work.”
Finally regaining her balance, she walked over and helped Alice up, and together the two girls limped out of the parking lot. A short drive and a botched parallel parking job later the two stumbled into Elinor's mundane apartment, and Elinor helped Alice feel at home while she went to make coffee.
Primordial Luxa wrote:Calamity smirked, “Yeah you could say there a cat person.”
Together the two knights descended into the depths of the subbasements to one of the many locked storage rooms and Calamity retrieved a small lock box with a series of long alphabetical codes. “If things ever get hairy know that the code is ‘Zoog Hater Moon Lander.' Feel free to use this just like I’m about to.”
The box popped open to reveal a single brass ring with a large black stone in the center. Calamity walked again with Andrew to a more open room and placed the ring on her finger. She read a small piece of paper also contained in the box and more importantly a printed translation as the paper looked to be ancient and written in a forgotten tongue.
“Ia. Ia. Yog-Sothoth. Shagg loth niggurath hai thog nilgh’ri fthatn ‘ai hafh’drn. Tulzcha na-orr’e li’hee Sathla by ei thog n’gha.” She croaked out apparently stumbling over the truly monstrous words as she did so.
Meanwhile in the air with the ring on here middle finger she traced a circle with a strange symbol that look at once like a womb, an astrological sign and a chemical symbol. As she discovered fire and sparks a pale green appeared in the air and flew around like a hive of hornets. As soon as the words finished the symbols flashed, and feline shape plopped wetly to the ground like some disgusting magical after birth.

Octavian was busying himself by sitting on a rooftop looking around for trouble, as he usually did when he had nothing in particular to do. He was about to switch his position when the smell of smoke hit his nose. He turned in the general direction, cocking an eyebrow. The police scanner hadn't mentioned anything about a fire. He'd have to investigate, if only to move around.
Octavian arrived out of breath, looking down at the billowing smoke. "That can't be good.." He muttered. He took to the fire escape, jogged down, then jumped onto a dumpster. At first, he thought his eyes were playing tricks on him. Then his mask confirmed the biotic signals. He grabbed his bow and nocked an arrow. Whatever did this was still around.

Gabriel Bridges
He was just finishing the gathering of the bodies of the thugs he had viciously tore through. As silently as he could, the bodies were stacked in front of the small monument he threw together to remember his adoptive father by. There was probably a good couple dozen bodies. He didn't want to look at the damage he had caused. Gabe never really pushed his strength, and only did he realize than even a small fraction of it was more than enough to tear a poor gunman to gibs. The thought that he had been so brutal was only suppressed by the fact that he did it to avenge his father. Otherwise he might have felt a twang of guilt over his igniting the bodies with a plume of flame from his maw. "Good riddance. Don't worry dad. I promise, I'm going to become the best superhero on the planet. I don't know how. But I'll find a way. You always said where there's a will there's a way. And I've got a will..." He trailed off, his eyes hot over his lost paternal figure. "It hurts. It hurts a lot. You were the greatest thing in my life. You took me in, taught me how to be a man..." He mumbled as he sat down.
The corpses burned to charred skeletons in a matter of minutes. With the flames being refreshed by him every little bit to ensure that it was done quickly and all the he tried not to cry. He had already gotten most of the frustration out on the poor bastards that made the mistake of shooting his father. He was tired and just wanted to take a few minutes or maybe even a few days to calm down. Unfortunately, he wouldn't get his wish as he caught something out of the corner of his eye. His emotions were still running quite high and he wasn't in the mood. His irrational thought led to him coming to the conclusion that whoever it was that was approaching his scrapyard had to work for one of the gangs that he massacred, probably a hitman of sorts. He jumped to his feet and approached the border fence to his scrapyard and shouted to the incoming man. "I am going to give you exactly one warning. You take another step towards this place, and you won't ever be leaving." He shouted, venom in his voice.
