"Hey there," said the Iron American as he approached the door. "Are you all here about a job too?" He grabbed at the handle of the door but found it was locked.

"Oh I guess they are closed. That's the weirdest thing, the letter I got said to come by around now. Should we just wait here?"

[/ QUOTE ]

Nick looked up at the armored hero, but he looked familiar to him, so he looked up and asked, "Wait...I know you from something...yea, wait, no, no, yes! You, you're the Iron American right?" What little of Nick's face you could see, had turned red with anger, "I HATE you! You're the freaking reason I've been STUCK IN THERE! YOU! They wanted me to process your request because apparently your just SO freaking special! I had to look in your profile, your age, your backround, my god! It took me so god long, and they had me come in, on a SUNDAY DAMN IT! Freedom Corps DOESNT PAY FOR EXTRA HOURS!" Nick was steaming, and looked like he was ready to try and punch a hole through the Iron American.

((If that's the case, do you want us to edit out Chotic and I deciding to follow them?))

((Think Halo Inc died?))

[ QUOTE ]

As he looked up he had an idea. His right hand was pointed above him, towards Soul, and his left was pointed to the ground behind him.

A gass shot of out of his right in an arc motion and a column of roots rose as a sort shield, but it was slanted, seemingly to where his left hand was pointing. The other shot flames a stream of flames att the ground, making a fairly deep hole. If he plotted this right, Soul would slide right into the hole and out of his way.

[/ QUOTE ]

Soul Striker took note of the hole right beneath him, he tried to move through the air, towards the side, but it was not enough, and he found himself hanging off the edge of the whole into the darkness, he looked around, and hoped no one would notice him as he climbed up, and possibly took a break to recalibrate his systems for the next fight...

Soul Striker looked down, it seems like it's going to hurt once he hit the ground....and it will hurt even more with a villain right beneath him....Soul Striker saw Flaming Earth, but this was NOT how he wanted to end up seeing him again...."Get out of the way!" he yelled down to him, this would get messy if the two crashed into each other....again.

[ QUOTE ]
"Damnit! Dn't you have anyone better to kamikaze?!" Flaming shouted at Soul Striker, cursing more under his breath. "Well if staying down here means I die too, I vote for we both go up!" This last command may have taken longer above ground, but luckily they weren't. One other column of roots came, but this time from the beneath them, launching both of them out of the hole, into the air, and through the hole in the cieling. "Hope you can fly, ***hole!" Then he remembered something, in the heat of the moment down in the hole, he'd forgotten about himslef and the fact he couldn't fly. "Oh ****...."

[/ QUOTE ]

As Soul Striker was launched into the air, he noticed a chandelier on top of the ceiling, fortunately he managed to get one arm hold of it. "Hah!" he said, he was safe.....untill he noticed a bunch of noises coming from his arm. His energy shorterd out, his "invincibility" just ended, and he was so drained. He lost his grip....all he managed to say was "Oh ****" .

[ QUOTE ]
Blinking her eyes,Ramare listened carefully to the sudden flow of information,though her puzzled expression betrayed the fact that she obviously had no clue what Nick was talking about.

With a soft voice she replied simply with her name "r-rami..yes..i'm rami..",needlessly pointing at the collar around her neck. Though judging by her weak reaction,she would probably have agreed if he had called her Lucy or Sue.

"errr..longbow?..." she tried,her voice slowly fading away as she cringed beforehand,asif she was expecting to be laughed at for her lack of knowledge about the going on's in galaxy city..or any city for that matter

[/ QUOTE ]

Nick was confused by the fact she didn't know about longbow, didn't everybody? Nick new though this was a good chance to make him seem much tougher then he really was though. "Well, Longbow is a branch of Freedom Corps, this group is used to figth the dangerous villains of Arachnos, that plague this city, I've been workin with these guys for a while, but they just waste away my marksman talent, instead of having me take out Arachnos thugs, I'm filing reports and battle results..."

After a bit of Nick's ranting, as he more or less gave himself a pat on the back for being the lowest ranking in Longbow, he finally started to notice how meek and nervous Rami could be, when in Reality, she seemed to have much more physical prowess then he had (She does have a scrapper powerset after all...), since all he could do was shoot a gun. Nick moved closer and put a hand on her shoulder, sounding concerned, "Hey, uh, Rami? You don't seem to look so good, are you okay? Do you need to see the medbay?"

[ QUOTE ]
Staring down at her hands her face flushed bright red while she whispered hoarsely "no..n-no..you just..s-startled me..thats all.." "it..it sometimes happens ..errr...uhm..well..it sometimes happens.."

She cleared her throath and tried to mask her awkwardness by semi nonchalantly running a hand through her hair. While doing so she now settled her gaze upon the man that appeared to be rather shocked by her little accident,perhaps even more than herself.

"i errr...i thought that they were closed",she continued,unable to cover up the fact her voice was sounding unnaturally tensed,nodding over towards the Freedom Corps building.

"not like i uhm..was interested in beeing a hero of course..ahum..not at all..i errr..i was just curious..and.."

She squinted her eyes abit,going silent as she took a better look at him,raising her brow asif she suddenly wondered who he WAS exactly.

[/ QUOTE ]
The guardian listened intently, waiting for her to say "I could use some help." But it never came.
"Closed...? Oh...right, well, they are...I was just doing paperwork inside because now I'm an "official" employee of longbow...but apparently they don't need me beating down skulls or hellions... By the way...I don't think I caught your name, I'm Nick Lin...and you are...?" Just then he noticed the tag on her neck, "...Rami? Well, if you really want to be a hero...just don't look into longbow, you want to sign up as an independent....longbow hasn't done squat for me...

[ QUOTE ]

Flaming felt the pain all around him, every fiber of his being ached, not to mention he also had a screaming hero about to jump in on him. Gotta time this right.. "You do remember we're fighting [u]in the ground[u] right, surrounded by roots and what have you?" he stated in a mocking sort of way.

[/ QUOTE ]

Soul Striker froze once he realized what mistake he made. [ QUOTE ]
A column of roots burst in from the right and dragged him away, leaving Soul to dive into the pit full of sonic energy.

[/ QUOTE ] As he was being pulled away by the vines, he constantly tore at more and more roots, trying to pull himself back up to Flaming Earth, right now, he was unstoppable, his power still lasted a little longer. Untill finally he was able to grab hold of Flaming Earth's leg, mumbling Soul Striker said, "This power might not last long, but it will be enough to bring you to hell with me....!"

The Guard leapt back upoon seeing her spines erupt all over her body, he yelled "Oh dear god I'm sorry I-!" untill he noticed she stopped and stuttered a bit of equal embarassment "Uh..uh, yea...umm...is there something wrong?"

Then one door slowly opened up, as large man in a longbow guardian suit walked out, because of the full body suit you couldn't really tell what his features were, other then his tanned skin. He looked down at the wet pavements, kicking at the open air. "Gah, paper work is all I've been freaking doing, don't they have some secretaries or some-" just then he noticed the animal-like woman and stopped dead still, and, just smiled, whispering to himself he said "Hmm, things are finally getting interesting. " Then a bit louder he said, "Well HEY there, how're you doin? Been fightin some villains? Gonna go out on patrol? If you are, want some help? Because if you need a master marksman I'm your guy! Huh? huh?!" The man seemed so excited he apparently forgot any sense of manners, even to outright skip introductions.

((Sorry for not being able to post as much, I've been workin on a lot of stuff for end of the school year and such.))

[ QUOTE ]

Flaming hit the ground with a loud crash, due partly to his gear. The kick had sent his head spining, he was dazed and a bit out of it. When he realized what had happened he turned his hands to the floor.

[/ QUOTE ] "Hah, gotcha...wait, what the hell are you doin-"

[ QUOTE ]
Suddenly, a massive clump of roots overcame him, and by the time they parted there was a fairly large whole in the ground with Flaming no where to be found. Suddenly a multitude of vines burst from under Soul Striker's feet.

[/ QUOTE ]

"Agh!" Soul Striker attempted to jump out of the way and suceeded, but managed to get hit in the foot, sending him tumbling. Grumbling, he said to himself while getting up, "I'm so sick of being thrown around like this..why do villains need to always have these new powers...what happened to plain old super strength and stupidity..." [ QUOTE ]
Flaming burst from the side of the wall on a tree limb, only now with a black eye and some bruises. "Alright, now I'm pissed." He said, aiming his arm, already lit on fire.

[/ QUOTE ] Next thing you know the guy was in some sort of cocoon, and another fire works show.

[ QUOTE ]
"That, was way too close." He cracked his neck while eyeing the woman "I suppose I"ll have to be a bit more careful from now on." This time though, he realized he may need some help... "Hey fancy staff man! Mind giving me a hand here?" He didn't like asking for help, but there wasn't much of a choice.

[/ QUOTE ] "Hahah, the last thing you should worried about is the amazon woman, because you're still MINE!" Soul Striker jumped down the hole (He is still in there right?) screaming incoherently, and began pressing several buttons on his suit again, causing a great aura to form around him, it would make him almost unstoppable, but it could not last forever. Whispering to himself he said "I need to get rid of this guy now, while I still can..."

Soul Striker leaped to avoid the bolts shot at him, and easily avoided the damage.Mere moments later, Soul Striker took note of the sudden swarm of Bane Spiders entering the building, "Damn it, where are those long bow reinforcements?!" he grumbled. "*sigh* The enemy of my enemy is my friend." He had need of a plan, AGAIN, people were being infected with radiation, what was this, a comic book? Though it appeared one hero seemed to know what he was doing.

[ QUOTE ]
"Oh no you don't!" Flaming shouted at Harry. He shot some flares at him in an attempt to delay him giving the civilians the police scanners but kept his distance."Look, if I'm going to get anything out of coming here, those pricks you're guarding need to die. I don't know about the rest of you, but I had radiation in mind when I designed this suit." He pointed at the tech armour around him and his ventilator. "Now I can't let you get those people out of here, so let's see what I got in this bag of tricks." A bit of a smile crept over his face, or at least it looked like he might be smiling. "I almost forgot about those seeds..."

[/ QUOTE ] But, he might need some help. "Look here, you aren't doing anything, let's see you try and hurt these civilians when I break your legs!" Soul Striker leaped, straight over Flaming's head, and landed right behind him. Soul Striker tried to sound non-chalant. "Either way, you need to deal with me first." Soul Striker performed a round house kick hoping to knock the villain from right beneath his feet.

[ QUOTE ]

Kruth"t looked at the fruit, and shook his head. "I have plenty, thanks." He said holding up the other two he had already taken.

[/ QUOTE ] Shrugging, Void Blazer threw the orange into a trash can.

[ QUOTE ]
“Oui, Kia will be okay the ice that I used will not damage her wery much. Pardon”

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
Kruth'T starred blankly at Hali while she talked to the security person. He turned slightly toward Void. "What did she say? My translator seems to be malfunctioning. What it said made little sense."
"It seems that it was your first assessment that was correct." He turned to face Void directly. "So, did you find your room?"

[/ QUOTE ] Chuckling, Void Blazer said, "Ah, yea, we didn't find our room yet...but we found a pretty nice chair. All we know is it's in the opposite side of the building....but we are sure we will find it, do you have a room? We are not likley to visit it soon, after the sight we just saw, we are most "intrigued" with the two women visiting here, and so we feel if we follow them, we might see more interesting..."sights", don't you agree?" Void Blazer seemed to still be excited from the fight, and while he wore a mask, he seemed to be shaking, wether it was from an adrenaline rush of some sort, or something emotional, was hard to tell.

[ QUOTE ]

*snapping her head back to Soul striker* “what part of telekinesis didn’t you understand!!!” *she attempts a second psionic repulsion*


[/ QUOTE ]

Once again, Soul Striker was sent flying through the air, but this time, he had a trick up his sleeve. Litterally. Soul Striker diverted his upper body power to his left, exposed arm, causing it to flow with electric energy. Yelling almost half crazed, Soul Striker said, "TRY TO REPEL THIS YOU LITTLE [censored]!"


Soul Striker thrusted his arm forward sending a massive ammount of electric energy straight towards the villainess, although it pained him a good deal to send electricity through his arms, it was the only way he could possibly harm the insane mistress. As he smiled under his reaper, he realized he was still in mid air, and was heading straight for Experiment 2.0, as he went through with his collision course, he managed to merely yell, "LOOK OUT!"

[ QUOTE ]

“you idiot” *the goddess attempts psychically repel the flying striker with a massive wave of destructive psionic energy* “I have telekinesis you maggot!” *a smile begins to cross her face* “this battle could be a bit too one-sided. And here I thou-“

[/ QUOTE ]

"Idiot? I think you forgot to mention savan- Agh!" Soul Striker was flung across the room, but managed to hold himself as he slid across the floor.

[ QUOTE ]
The large imposing doors suddenly were thrust open by multiple roots while a man in some dark red and green tech armour stepped through.
Through his ventilator he merely stated "Alright, Flaming Earth here so hand over your money and..."
at the sight of the already erupting chaos he stood for a minute, not knowing what to do.

[/ QUOTE ]

[ QUOTE ]
“oh great, another one!” the goddess looks towards Flaming earth. “you there, for every rich twit you kill I will pay you triple what they are worth!”


[/ QUOTE ] Agh, ok, while she's distracted, I NEED an IDEA. Ok...let's see...wait a second... Soul Striker looked down, and noticed on his hand, a small bit of armor was scraped off. "Ah crap..." he mumbled to himself, a small bit of sparks was coming out of his left arm piece. "Wait...that's it!...I should keep that in mind for later..." Soul Striker once again began pressing the buttons on his arm, diverting power away from the exposed left arm, and empowering other parts of the suit, with his power suit, and martial arts knowledge, few people could best him in a fist fight, all he needs is a way to make it happen. "Ok then, let's see if you can take this...!" Hoping the woman was still preocupied with the Flaming Earth, Soul Striker once again, lunged at her, throwing all his weight into this, if he was lucky, he could knock her over, and maybe give him time to help the others.

[ QUOTE ]

“I hate you more than anyone! Longbow killed my mother.

[/ QUOTE ]

"Shoot madam, I guess your momma was one crazy lady if we needed to sick Longbow after her!" Said Soul Striker, snickering to himself. (He's a young guy, and still hasn't learned that "Statesman" style heroing, just wants to beat down on villains.) Muttering under his breath however, he said "Heh...your lucky though, you got to meet her, I don't even know mine.

[ QUOTE ]
You will die at my hands!”

[/ QUOTE ]

Instantly after that phrase Soul Striker turned into his sarcastic/joking self. "Yea, um, about that, you just reminded me, I need to know your name, I don't beleive I quite caught it, I'm supposed to put the names of the villains I send to the zig on my myspace, y'know with-"

[ QUOTE ]
*her eyes glow a faint pink and the cognac glass shatters and the amber liquid floats in mid air with the pieces of shattered glass she sends it zooming forward and it catches fire on a candle between the two figures, turning the projectile into a crescent of burning liquid and broken glass* “You will die first tonight!”

[/ QUOTE ]

Soul Striker jumped back, startled by her interesting show of powers, he was not one for seeing anything besides a charging troll, someone who seemed to really dabble in magics, always seemed to confuse the technological prodigy he was. Soul Striker attempted to maintain his cocky nature, but could not hide a tiny hint of fear in his voice, "Heh... uh, well I guess I feel special being your prime target and all..." but finally regained his composure, "Yea, ok, let's do this!" said he, excitedly. Soul Striker leapt through the air, straight towards the villainess, performing a strong kick, which, according to his calculations, could not miss.

Soul Striker laughed, as he adjusted the dial on the side of his visor, and stepped into the room, with his shining blue Crey themed(Note I say themed, for those who never heard his story, he merely worked for Crey. Just thought that should be mentioned to clear up any confusion.) armor along with a , and muttered into the small microphone on his hi tech helmet, though with a reaper cloak around his face, it seemed a bit muffled.

Laughing he said, "No one here is going to be doing ANYTHING for Arachnos, because for every single bane spider you call in, there we will a long bow soldier waiting to just butt-whoop him!" Stepping into his fighting stance, he pressed a button on his arm, causing his armor to glow in a bright aura, and assumed his fighting stance. " I'm going to recommend you and your little spider friends just leave, and let the heroes take care of this, less you want to get squashed!"(Not breaking any rules in throwing Long Bow into the fray right? If so, I can edit around that as well.)

After the fight was...interrupted, Void Blazer stopped cheering "Hmph, and we were finally enjoying ourselves." he muttered quietly...

Kruth'T: "Pardon my ignorance, but why did you encase Kia in ice? I thought humans were susceptible to damage when exposed to sudden temperature changes.

"Well, lizard friend of ours, we are going to take a wild guess, that the woman felt it necessary that, in order to stop the fight, she had to incapacitate her friend as well. Of course, this is of course assuming they are both friends in this....otherwise she mihgt just enjoy freezing people. We know we would..." said Void Blazer, in a somewhat humorous manner. Void Blazer looked around, trying to do something about the akward silence, so picking up an orange, he held it up to Kruth'T, "...Still hungry?"

Well, I don't know much bout role playin on the CoH servers, but I hear that the biggest role playing server would be Virtue. Fraid I don't know more then that though.

After Void Blazer realized he WASN'T the center of attention, he looked around, to get a better idea of what the heck was going on, he looked around, and saw that the furry woman appeared to be attacking Kia, while the security seemed to be slowly approaching the furry woman as well. Normally, he would launch into action, but noticed, his lizard friend seemed to be enjoying himself, why shouldn't he? Void Blazer started to cheer and began yelling "KIA, KIA, KIA!"

Void Blazer started to head back to the reception area, after he found his room must be on the opposite wing... as he walked back, he wondered if his "friends" were still there, as he headed towards the room, he had his head down from the exhausting walk of checkin the numbers of all the rooms. Just then...

[ QUOTE ]

Alissa snarled and sweeped an arm, which smashed into one of the arm chairs beside her and tossed it across the room.


[/ QUOTE ]

after hearing the snarling sound, he looked up, only to see a chair heading straight for him, too surprised to teleport out of the way, it crashed into him, knocking him into the floor"Aaagh!" was all he managed to say before being hit. As he pushed the chair off him, he got up, to see what would be a battle between Kia and the furry chick. Furiously he yelled, "Ok, which one of you threw the chair at us?!" this seemed to cause the Void Blazer's eyes to glow with a dark energy, and a strange shield formed around him, apparently to try to deflect any further projectiles from smashing into him. Looks like he was ready for a fight.

(Editted: sorry, didn't notice the bottom of your post, editted to get self out)

[ QUOTE ]

"My apologies, Void Blazer. My translator seems to have miss understood my intent of meaning. I have adjusted it so that it doesn't do that again" I hope, of course I'm not even sure why it happened.
"

[/ QUOTE ]

Upon hearing mention of a translator, Void Blazer took a quick look around Kruth'T, but noticed he carried nothing actually ON him, at least, nothing visible to the naked eye, shrugging to himself, he decided it best not to bother asking, "We see, well we hope you do not suffer from any problems

[ QUOTE ]
"Am I correct in assuming, that you are in a symbiotic relationship with anther intellect?"

[/ QUOTE ]

Hearing that finally, someone seemed to be knowledgeable about Void Blazer's "condition" (for lack of a better word), caused him great excitement. "Why, why yes, we are two, who have become one, are you familliar with our peoples?"
It was not untill hearing one of the two women, that he turned around,

<Kia> Don't ask me, they are keeping me out in those condos by the damned spa.

Hearing that caused Void Blazer a bit of stress, how was he supposed to find his room now? He certainly didn't want to go back to see the ignorant receptionist, but tried to avoid showing, and poorly attempted to seem fine.

"Oh..we see, that is unfortunate for us, but we are sure we will figure out where it is sometime, if we are on a balcony side, we might be able to fly around to find our room."

Void Blazer sighed, the woman did not seem to be quite as enthusiastic as he thought. He ((or..they I suppose...)) thought everyone enjoyed it, if she was here for the spa, would she not have come for her enjoyment? Perhaps she was so exhausted even relaxation would appear to be an effort? While pondering such things, Void Blazer started to zone out, staring blankly.

Suddenly, reality sank in again, seeing all the security made him realize he might as well get some sleep, it was starting to get kind of late. He should get some sleep, getting up, he waved to what he deemed to be his newfound friends, and proceeded to search for his room, as he aimlessly wandered down the hallways.

[ QUOTE ]


“Nah, I’m ‘ere” Kia exaggerated Hali’s French-Canadian accent on the ‘here’ “With her” She jerked her thumb in Hali’s direction.

“I’m here as a spa guest” she didn’t try to hide her disgust at the statement. The best she could hope for was that she’d at least get a pretty masseuse.

[/ QUOTE ]

"We see..." Void Blazer looked at the two women, who seemed to be angry with each other, which, made him a little nervous, but also somewhat amused. He thought about asking them what was wrong, but thought better on it. Mentally, he joked to himself "Hah, if they were like us, these two could never merge!" This caused Void Blazer to have to hold back a chuckle.

"Well, it is nice meeting the two of you, we hope to see you around. Befriending others might even help us find our inner connection again, so we may use the words "I" and "Me" again! That would be very good for us." Void Blazer paused for a moment, and looked as he was about to get up, but stopped. "Ah, but, can I bother either of you with one more question? I have apparently been assigned to room 153, but this is a very big building, and while, normally I would teleport about untill I found I was near it, according to the brochure for the Clinic, they do not allow teleportation within the building, so do either of you know where the rooms are at least, near? I have a bad sense of direction, and find I am asking for directions quite often."

[ QUOTE ]

Kruth'T' turned slightly to look at the new-commer. "Hello, I am Kruth'T. I am here for medical treatment. Who are you?" He was getting tiered of talking about his infestation.

[/ QUOTE ]

"Oh, well, we are the Void Blazer. We are pleased to meet you. You seem irritated, can we do anything to help? Even if we are here to relax, we feel we should help others if they need it. "

He started to notice people seemed to look at him strangely when he kept referring to himself as "We", He figured he might want to clear that up for the lizard man, as to avoid confusion "We are sorry, we recently united as one, but we do not feel like we are one anymore, and can not bring ourselves to using the words "I" or "Me". We hope we can overcome that by coming to the clinic to relax ourselves, and maybe we will be able to use the word "I" and "Me" again after we spend more quality time together. Do we make more sense now?"
