Night, the darkness, the time of the hunter.
Under neath the inky black sky, a figure stalks along the rooftops, hes been chased since he came to this world.
He can't be found, he must escape. These are the only thoughts that run through the creatures head.
pfffffft! Thump
He looks back, and sees smething sticking out of his shoulder. It's pink, then a red one appears, then, everything vanishes.
"Man, took enough tranqs to kill an elephant just to drop this guy. Where the hell are we gonna put him?"asked the man with the rifle.
"He'll be coming with me, that's where," someone said from under a smokey the bear type hat,"nice shot, by the way."
"Just who are you, and what makes you think were not putting him pack on his home planet? Hey Doc, who is this guy?"
"Meeks, I'd like you to meet Corporal Punishment, one of the instructors at the Hero Academy, follow me if you will Cpl. Punishment. We here at Portal Corp. called you because we didn't want to send this poor creature back to his own dimension. He is one of five of his species left alive. On his planet, the Statesman there hunts his kind for fun. We managed to bring him through the portal, but we really have no way of caring for him. With his natural abilities, he would be well suited to heroics, with the proper training, of coure."
Corporal Punishment looked down at his new Cadet, who he was apparently taking wether he wanted to or not, but if Statesman wanted him to take in the creature, who was he to argue with him? Not very tall compared to some of the other heroes, the tiger creature stood only about five foot ten when on his hind legs., but was very muscular.
"Can he talk doc?" asked the Cpl.
"Yes he can, but we're not sure how complete his understanding of our language is."
Pre Dawn, just before morning calisthenics
"Now listen, Tigonus, this is a new start for you, this planet is your home now. You will hunt, but hopefully, only the evil, if you decide to eat them, thats your choice, other wise chow is......"
Tigonus heard everything this man said, he understood it all to, but he was still confused. Why was he here? What was an alternate dimension? They said that on this world, the man who hunted him on his home world was a good man, a hero, they said who could be one to. As he looked down at his fur he thought to himself, "Maybe it wont be so bad here."
Tigonus smelled someone coming down the hall, he could hear there foot steps.
Knock Knock
"What?!?!?" yelled the Corporal.
Tigonus had been told it was the Cpls job to be mean to everyone, including to himself, but the yelling hurt his sensetive ears.
"You knocked, now what do you want scumbag?!?!"
((ooc tag, someone take it from here pls)) -
" MMMMMhhhhmmmm, Chow. I burn through everything so fast now I have to eat 8 times a day or I feel like im starving. Little side effect of these powers, the cool thing is I can also sense body heat to. After being in close proximity to someone for a long enough time I can actually identify there heat signature."
Embher started walking down the stairs, it may have been a little laate to work out, he liked spending two to three hours in the gym if he went in there, other wise, he barely worked up a sweat.
"Lets skip the gym for now, but lets hit the chow hall, could go for a steak or two.Not many people like us where I come from, Be nice to talk to someone whos been through some of the same things I have, gotten some of the looks."
((ooc: Just curious, how much lattitude are we getting with the power sets? I love what our little half demon half angel friend was doing with the wings. And about what security lvl are we at, or does it matter?)) -
"Names Embher, pleased to meet you guys. Sounds like a good plan. Apparently there's alot of trouble going on, I'd definitely rather face it as a group instead of solo.
With that Embher leaped off into the direction of the sirens, glad to have made an alliance of some kind here in this strange city. -
" Gunner for abou two years, then Re-upped for medic, been a long time since anyone called me Doc though, I like hurting people to much. My troops didn't come to me unless they were really sick or really hurt, those are the ones who got compassion, luckily I always had good guys in my unit," Michael said, and when he said guys, he meant men and women, as women are soldiers, not women.
"Being lectured huh, might could use a lecture, kinda new to this whole hero thing. Only had my powers a short while, well that's not entirely true. Had them since I was about fourteen, but was normal, and well hidden until the accident." As Michael mentioned this mysterious accident, a visible mask of pain covered his face. Never one to hide his emotions after years of being a mean, blunt NCO.
As michael said this, he noticed that MaDeuce moved her hands to her chest, not in a seductive manner, but in away only a soldier would. She apparently sought some type of comfort from her dog tags. A soldier, through and through, was all Michael could think, Good, she can offer some extra training on this hero biz, and she'll be good to have at my back if I'm ever in a tough spot.
"Sure, I'm always up for training. Speaking of which, they got a decent weight room? Feelin kinda flabby, havent worked out since 0500."
Michael wanted to ask how MaDeuce had been turned yellow and gotten so big, but he knew not to ask, not yet anyway. He himself had the Crey to blame, and they would pay for what they did to him, pay dearly. -
Embher had been fighting along side the other heroes, though wether anyone knew it or not, he couldn't tell, the smoke was to thick for him to see, luckily, he didn't have to. One of the things he had noticed after his accident with Crey was that he could tell a persons location by there heat signature. He never realized how usel this little side effect was until now.
Out of the corner of his eye he spotted something metal flying at the creature, and was forced to leap back. Sometimes he wished he could focus the fire in his hands better, then he could attack from a further distance. When Michael looked again, he realized what had happened, the penguin hero, who could apparently manipulate ice and eart as easily as he did flames, had thrown a gas tank at the creature. Good plan, now I can set the gas on fire and burn this critter like toast. Wanting to stay back away from the creature, not sure how much damag his fire shield could take, he forced a wave of flames out from his feet. It had the intended results, setting the creature on fire, but it also ruined his shoes. As Michael looked up he noticed that the knife fighter and the invisible gunman, who was now visible, were shaking hands.
As Michael walked away, he decided to introduce himself properly to the other heroes, he had been a hot head inside earlier, and felt bad about it,having only been in this lifestyle a week or so, he understood now that he may need help one day.
"Nice to meet you, my names Embher," Michael proclaimed as he extended his hand to the man dressed as a penguin> -
"MaDeuce, huh? Plesed to meetcha, Names Michael Ember, Sergeant, E-5 type, Most people just call me Embher. Good eye, your'e observant, was 82nd, 101st (Air Assault). Tried for SpecFor, but they were full of 18D's. Got an offer from Crey industries one day, couldn't pass it up. One thing leads to another, and here I am.
As he approached the woman, he realized his eyes weren't playing tricks on him, she was tall, and yellow. Embher had thought at first that since his eyes had turned orange, that he wasn't seeing right. Doubt anyone teases her though, to afraid shell pummel em, , she thought.
"So whats this Corporal Punishment like? Hear he likes to make people do pushups? Good, I miss the military life, they wont take me back because of my powers and appearance though. Dont get me wrong, they'd love to have some one my size on a 50 cal, but my eyes freak people out. Haven't met anyone yet who can stare at them. So, wheres these civvies? I'd like to meet some of em , maybe then we can go grab a brew, wadda ya say MaDeuce?"
The whole time Embher talked to Ma, he was watching her, observing, He could see her pulse in her carotid artery, smooth and steady, just like her resperations. maybe a sniper, but her little grin showed that she missed talking to military. Maybe Cpl Punishment was the closest thing here, but he probably wouldn,t want to show any favoritism to any of the cadets, Lord knows he didn't when he was a D.S. -
Embher landed just outside the smoke cloud, just as he heard the man with the knives yell to run. He turned and saw what could only be described as hell on earth. To his right were the ruins of the council attack, to his left, the destroyed restaraunt, and in front of him, he saw a man dressed as a penguin leap into the cloud. Dont know what I should do here, but theres a big ugly guy in there, and the penguin may need help, hope he can withstand my heat alot better than ugly there. With that thought, he spread his arms apart and growled, he could feel the heat building inside him, seeking a relese. He always hated this, but it helped him fight. He was literally burning, his internal body temperature reachin approx. 500 degrees farenheit,. Now alll primed and ready to go, he leapt in, hearing thumps as the two titans battled.
-
Maybe he didnt hear me Michael thought, Just as well, feel like going for a jog anyway. With that he walked away from the door, leaving it cracked, and walked down the hall. Thought I heard something, maybe not As he looked down the stairs he saw what appeared to be a woman, no, not a woman, but a soldier. He could tell by the way she stood that she was a professional. Good, more than one person around here with some real training in there background thought Michael. It had been a long time since he had left the Army, but he did remember one thing, females garnered no special treatment, and from the looks of this one, she expected none
."Hey troop, whats it like around here, I just got into this town, and lemme tell ya, I aint impressed. Anywhere to get a drink around here?"
((Believe it or not, I read the whole thread,interesting stuff. I acyually had flashbacks of basic training when Corporal punishment was yelling, lol.)) -
Embher watched as the scene unfolded. He knew that the young woman pulled from the debris was his niece, he knew she would not make it, but he couldn't accept it. All the good things in life go from you so swiftly. But now was not the time to mourn,now was the time for action. "Get ready to burn you creep!" he yelled. With that Embher triggered his power. What the others had seen in the bar was but a spark compared to the flames that roiled along his body.As he leapt across the street, he noticed that someone had thrown a smoke grenade of somekind, he only hoped he didn't hit the wrong person when he landed.
((ooc thx, didn't realize that wasn't allowed, it wont happen again, I promise)) btw, what does ooc mean
-
I think its a wonderful thing your doing. I hate looking at someones info and it being blank. My only other complaint is the space is to limited. Have fun, and thanks be to you.
P.P. can someone teach me how to read? -
I like it, can you tell me how to do my own, Im new at this, maybe talking to me like im a 3rd grader would help
-
Michael walked through the front doors adn approached the man behind the desk, Not a very friendly lookin guy, thought Michael.
"Can I help you sir?' asked the man in BDUs
"I was told to report to Corporal Punishment, for Cadet training. "Lemme see your file, uh huh, uh huh, ok, the Corporals not here right now, but we'll get you a room for the night, and you can meet him first thing in the morning, PT starts at 0615,
"Thank you."
15 minutes later, Michael was in his room. His roommate want there, and he honestly wasnt sure if he was gonna like the guy.
"Ah well, may as well look around a bit, reminds me of my barracks in Bragg, cept alot bigger."
While wandering the halls, Michael bumped into someone, kinda had an attitude problem.
"Geez, Im seven feet tall, think it would be easy to avoid me!" Never had this problem till the accident After a short tour of the grounds, Michael returned to his room. Hi, I'm Michael Embher, guess we're roomies now. Youre Gilth or Glith or something right?
(( Michael is going to be a person who suffered a tragic accident in his recent past, and new to paragon and his powers, anyone wanna help?))
-
"Yes, it is. Or at least it was,I was supposed to meet my brother and niece there, in an hour. Do any of you know what happened?" The man was tall, almost seven feet, and powerfully built, with orangish eyes that almost glowed and a spiked orange haircut, but he didnt dress like a hero. The assembled heroes thought he was just a casual passerby who had witnesses the fight and wanted to thank them.
"Thats what were trying to figure out now," said the man in black. "but don't worry citizen, we'll find out what happened, you should go home where its safe now."
This was the part of the job Embher always hated. Just because I dont wear tights or a mask, they think im some normal Joe Schmuck "Listen, Im a hero to!" screamed the large man. As his voice raised, so to did the tempurature in the room, his hair started to wave, as though there were a breeze, small flames danced along his skin.
Realizing that the newcomer was a hot head with the ability to manipulate flames, MaDeuce stepped in. "Calm down, we're all good guys here, lets act like it. You said you were going to meet your brother, right?"
"Yeah, my brother-in-law actually,and my niece."
Fox stepped up, or as close as he could without the wolves growling at him."Lets go get the little girl then, see if anyone needs help," he slapped Embher on the back and immediately regretted doing it. OW, that burned, , thought Fox
((I'm new to, please dont hurt my feelings to bad))
