((OOC: OK, this is probably going to be a long post so stick with me...))
Medb was to preoccupied to hear Kirke's question. Why did she know that someone other than her father would know about this plan attempt to stop her. Further more, why could she not recall the identity of this person. She opened a drawer in the desk and pulled out a spherical gem stone that looked like a Cat's Eye save for it's ruby coloring, and it was doing something she'd never seen it do before. It was glowing. The chief plotter's eyes went wide. "The Demon's Eye stones actually belonged to demons," she muttered to herself. "And the one who this belongs to must be in the Tower right now!"
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I assume your question about how I know your name is more a question about how I have been able to observe you." The blind man smiled warmly at Trevor. "Let's just say that only the peace bringing Kheldians have any hope of hiding themselves from me. And occasionally those that wrap themselves in fire." He chuckled as Trevor pondered his statment. "I do believe two more people with a similar potential to you are on their way to invite us for a bite to eat."
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Jack had heard the entire conversation between Vance and Disco Inferno as he meditated in front of the entrance to the Reverse Tower. He did not move when the manipulator fround and approached him. "Anything I disire that I could gain from slaying you I can get through far less messy means and you would still possess at it's current capacity, Lord Vance. Furthermore, the thing I desire most sits atop the head of the weapon that we will be releasing from it's 'prison.'"
------------------------------------------------------------------------
As Kathy made her way through the Reverse Tower the monsters seemed to become more and more amorphous as well as more contected do the darkness that she had started to grow accustomed to. As she wandered she found herself before the spectral girl she'd seen before, however, this time she seemed to be ten years old and wearing only tatters. She was huddled in a corner rocking herself back and forth all the while muttering indistinctly to herself.

"Kheldians? You mean the Peacebrings and Warshades?" Trevor felt nervous How is he conected to energy-beings. Could he be... He played it cool, probly pointless, but he need something though. "Two more people of potential?" Trevor thought out loud. He was starting to get a bad feeling about the word potiental. "What exactly does potential mean?" Trevor assumed the answer. As if today hadn't been eventful enough with cyborgs, robots, half clockworks, people trapped in the past, insane women and old jerks, now it had this.
((OOC: Since I'm an anime otaku (though not in the strictest translation of the word), I've pulled inspiration from character traits and concepts from anime's that I really enjoy. So let's play a little game, as the references appear you get to ID where I put the reference and from what anime I pulled it from and I will give points based on the difficulty of each. I'd do it with music references as well, however, Mazement/Peppermint knows some of those already.))

Wonderful. Trevor was now very sure 'potential' wasn't a good thing to have. And if he was right having 'potential' was a fate worse than death. He straightened up and stood his full hieght "I take it we're not going to wait for the other two to show up are we." Why me?

Trevor's eye twitched, his patientence was wearing thin and he was confindate he regret haveing 'potential'. Expecialy if it had to with Medb and her father. Trevor pulled himself together and managed to look very profesional in an old long sleaved shirt, jeans, and sneakers. "What about the weapon do you want to talk about? The King of Hearts? Or what Medb will be using it for?"
(OCC Note: The King of Hearts is the nickname Trevor gave to Medb's father. Where I live the King of Hearts is refered to as the Suicide King because it looks like he stabbing himself in the head on the card. Just so theres no confusion Trevor doesn't know Medb's fathers actual name.)
The dark figure sighed. "I keep forgeting that you humans lack the patients that near immortality gives. All will be revealed when the time is right, which will be in few minutes for you." The 'guardian" started chuckling. "It just struck me about how ammusing it is that you appropriately equated King Crimson to the card also known as the suicide king. Heh heh, quite clever, even if you didn't know that it was fitting."
Trevor stared at the chuckling guardian. Near immortality? How does that work? You only will for most of eternity or...or until your killed. He liked the second option and decided to stick with it. King Crimson also added a new peice to the puzzle and it unfortunatly fit into two spots, someone working for Medb or someone working against. If it was the first one this was some atempt to manipulate him, if it was the seconded he would be damned by assocation. He smiled slightly "The King of Hearts was intentional." Trevor desprately tried to sound calm "So who will be joining us?"

Vance was getting a migraine, which he knew from personal experience only happened when he was making things harder than they had to be. He massaged his temple. "Ugh. Look, I... Bah. I guess I was expecting everyone to be all supervillain-y so I was getting a little crazy. Normally I'm not this screwed up, really." He sighed. This migraine is killing me, he thought. "D'you have any work you need me to do? Any briefings, or information, maybe a prisoner you need coerced? I'm going out of my damn skull from boredom here."
As he and Will entered the library, Disco Inferno noticed someone new speaking with Trevor, causing his heart to jump. He frantically checked exactly how many vital signs he was reading. Including the bindfolded man, they were all there, except one. He found Will's, Vance's, Book's, Kirke's, Medb's, Trevor's, Mason's, Dark's, Horned King's, the blindfolded man's ("Great, his vitals don't match any known patterns, either"), and Jack's. Kathy wasn't there, he had mixed hers up with the blindfolded man's, because he hadn't bothered to check. "Hi, Trevor. Would you like to join your friend and me for lunch? Feel free to bring your new aquaintance," then, as the two he was addressing turned away, he quickly made an aside at Will, the only person that knew of his monitors, "I think Jack did something to Kathy. I mixed up her vitals with this guy's, because I didn't check. Actually, her vitals aren't even there. The only way to do that would be to leave the Tower, phase shift or... die. Also, this new guy has unique vitals, much like Mr. Book, but it looks different as well, so we might want to watch out. Try to warn Trevor of Kathy's disappearance as soon as the guy with the blindfold is far enough away from him. He seems to be one of Medb's "friends," like Jack. But, don't tell him or anyone about my, monitors, it tends to unnerve people," said Disco Inferno, certain that if the blindfold guy heard, they all would meet the same fate as Kathy. DUN DUN DUNNNNN! (just had to do that)
Meanwhile, outside...
"This is where Haywire said he was, time for my revenge," thought the shadowy figure in the warehouse, as he pulled out a nifty device. "This device will open a doorway inside without alerting anyone except a clairvoyant, time to finally get revenge on Disco Inferno!" As he fired the device, a door opened, just like he had said, and into the Tower slipped...
THE BREAKDANCE KID!!!
(OOC: I just assumed JiD had vitals, because you never answered. And The Breakdance Kid is an original character made for this RP, just because I thought Disco Inferno deserved a musically themed enemy, and anyone can fight this guy if you want to get the drop on him, but he has a music generator much like D.I.'s, but this one works only on villains, instead of only on heroes. If I forgot someone's vitals, tell me before the edit time limit is up.)

((OOC: Blind Guardian should appear to have normal human vitals for the most part since he's not using any of his abilities yet. Also, at this point, Jack should have the normal vitals of a cybernetic human.))
"Ah, speak of the devils." Blind Guardian chuckled at some private joke.

((OOC: NOW there will be a change in his vitals.))
The mystery man seemed to melt into the shadows near Trevor, vital signs noticibly changing, and reappeared from Disco's shadow.
"It doesn't matter if you whisper, I can still hear you." Blind Guardian smiled. "And just so you know, my only interest in Medb is in removing my crystalized eye from her possession."
Trevor watched Blind Gaurdian disapper into the shadows and saw him reapper near Disco and Will. Whats the Hell was that? Trevor doesn't swear often and when he does it is under exterme presure and frustration. "Uh...hi guys, I see that you met Blind Guardian, he wanted to talk with us." At least Will is here.
What in the name oh all that is good and holy did he do? Will did catch that he used shadows to teleport though and filed it away quickly. "Hello Blind Gaurdian. We where going to lunch, would you mind if we talk there?"
As the door way opened by Break Dance Kid close A figure from the shadows darted in at the last moment. Ghoast Sentry was confidante that Ritki were some how involved and if humans were working with them, all the better. The thin figure completely covered in dull dark clothes s not a inch of skin was visable, stealthful sculked down the hall managing to move unheard for the most part. He keep his hands on his pistols and braced himself for the worst.
(OOC Note: He's after no one, so if you want attack him go ahead.)
(OOC Note: Need Masterwonderful to respond befor I could do this part.)
Ghoast Sentry could sense a psychic some where inside the Ritki base. He stopped and checked his watch. He nodded and reached into a belt pouch and didn't find what he was looking for. What, where is it. Oh perfect, I forgot the pills. I'm in a Ritki base and in 5 minutes any psychic will be able to see me and I forgot the pills. You stupid son of a...alright got to think. 5 minutes, 5 minutes, ARRGGHHHH. How could I forget them. Alright I'll kill the pychic before I become visable and deal with the rest of the Ritki later. That will work, yeah right. He quickly ran down the halls towards the psychic. I've made closer deadlines....right?
(OOC Note: Yes he is in the Tower and yea he thinks it a Ritki base. He thinks that because of how complex the portal-gateway-door-thing is. And by visable I mean psychicly, he hiding himself from psychic with those pills. So yes you can see him.)
As Disco Inferno and the others walked down to the cafeteria, Disco heard the music that could only belong to one person.
I like big butts an' I cannot lie, you otha brothas can't deny, when a girl walks in wit' a skinny li'l waist an' a big ol' butt up in yo' face, you get sprung....
"Not him, I already beat up Haywire, why do I need to deal with him?" whined Disco Inferno as they neared the source of the music. "Okay, guys, this hero's more of an annoyance than a danger, because he can get just about anywhere undetected, and can paralyze villains much like I can do to heroes," he explained, "I'll fight him, he isn't that tough, and he actually provides a fun fist fight, most of the time. I've never had to use my fire on him, or any power at all. He's best suited to defeating Hellions." "Hey, Breakdance Kid! If you're looking for a rematch, I'll be glad to oblige!"
"Thank heavens, I was beginning to think you didn't like me," said The Breakdance Kid, getting into a battle stance, "Ready to go?"
"Always."
The two music-lovers rushed each other, and then just before they met, they stopped. "Do you want a dance-off or fist fight this time?" asked Disco Inferno.
"We had a dance-off last time, so lets have a fist fight."
"You sure?"
"Yeah."
"Okay."
With one punch, Disco Inferno sent his opponent straight into the room that the door was in. With his second punch, The Breakdance Kid was sent sailing back into the warehouse.
"Looks like you lose again!"
"Damn it! I'll get you next time! I hope...."
"Whuppin' that nutcase gave me a good appetite, let's eat. What? It may have been only two punches, but I diverted a lot of my power into them. Let's go already, between these two fights, I could eat a horse," said Disco Inferno, apparently unfazed by the looks of shock from the others.
Next time, on The Adventures of Disco Inferno and Some Other Guys (Joke):
See Disco Inferno fight The Hip Hippie, Captain Beatles, and Jazzman!
(OOC: I just HAD to put those other music-themed heroes in, even though it was just a joke, they were ideas I had for other enemies for D.I. But seriously, as soon as we get to the plan itself, expect some much cooler fights (more like the fight with Haywire, but cooler). Also, today's music was "Baby got Back" by Sir Mixalot.)

Trevor tryed to forget what he just saw. He let the hero live, what is he, a comic book villian. Trevor never let a hero live and he had watched Disco throw away two prefect oppurtunities to do the world a favor. He looked back on his record, 16 heroes and 12 Paragon protectors. If he could he never let them get away. Haywire had been beyond his control, but this guy had been wide open. How are they getting in, is Medb's secruity that weak. he sighed.
Bigger fish to fry. The group entered the cafeateria. Must be for Medb's staff. He had never seen any except for Jack, odd. His mind was wandering, he was holding to much energy, the walk over had been a oppurtunity to charge. When every he was too hyped up it happened and now his mind was going anywhere it wanted if he didn't focus. Trevor didn't feel hunger and took a seat, Blind Gaurdian sat across from him. Trevor smiled and waited for the others to pick out there meals and be seated before he started.
"Alright Blind Gaurdian what do you want our help for?" Trevor ask in a very buisness like tone. Inside he could feel his body working over time. I hate this place
Ghost could sense the psychic was close. 1 minute left. He gripped his pistols and charged towards it, was it his imagination or was it coming towards him.
(OOC Note: It could be his imagination.)

"While I've been cryptic up to this point, there is much you need to learn, but not enough time for you to learn about it on your own. As I told Trevor before, you each have potential. You can each be better than you are now. Everyone has potential, though not always of the same type. What's more, each person's potential has two directions is can expand in, but it can't go both ways at the same time. At some point a person with great potential reaches a tipping point where they must make a hard choice to go one way or the other and never look back. The potentials I seek are those who can tip the balance of the survival of the human race. You three are among those who stand upon this pivot. You also have among the hardest choices of those who stand at this crossroads. But before you decide there is history that must be related..."
(to be continued...)
((OOC: I think Genius4Hire needs to be getting ready to deal with Ghost...))
Trevor settled in for a long story. Oh yeah this isn't cryptic at all. Will was eating a lunch box full of suchi, apperently Medb took good care of those who worked with her. Trevor stole a peice of Ebi and listen intentively. Disco was chowing on the what appeared to be the heart-clugger special. Somewhere a heart surgen is jumping up and down with joy. Still even Disco was paying close attention. Trevor had only confused simple with stupid once and had lived to regret it, Damn you Hopkins, maybe Disco would be useful after all. Trevor stole some odd peice of fish and continued listening.
(OOC Note: Felt that I had to say some.)
While Disco Inferno was listening to Blind Guardian's story, he was enjoying one of his favorite lunch entrees, a bacon double cheeseburger with steak sauce. He thanked the lord every day for the artery de-cloggers the Clockwork King gave him. He had noticed that Trevor's heart rate had remained a little elevated longer than the others after his fight, he was positive it was because he hadn't finished the job. Not that The Breakdance Kid was any worry to him, he was just a similarily themed archenemy, and every hero and villain needed one. Although, he was a little worried about Haywire's escape, that may prove to be his undoing. But, he didn't worry about anything too long and was soon back to enjoying his lunch, and listening to Blind Guardian's story.
Meanwhile...
The Breakdance Kid had just made it back into the Tower and was heading to the cafeteria he heard Disco Inferno talking about, when he saw some guy with pistols drawn charging him! He activated his force field generator, stopping the man in his tracks. "Halt! I'm placing you under arrest," he said, "State your name, powers, and plan, villain!"
(OOC: I got plans for The Breakdance Kid, it'll all play out towards the end of the RP. So this time, try not to beat him up.)

[/ QUOTE ]
" What the hell do you think your doing? I'm not a vill..." He didn't realy say, not that any non-phsychic could tell. He looked around the force-feild around him and was filled with a sense of dread. "You traitorous *******, you work for them don't you! You can forget capturing me kid, and I got bigger things on my plate." Something happened that no one could see and suddenly Ghost slipped through the barrier. Less than a minute, but I can't risk letting him live and alerting the other Ritki. He drew his pistols and started to move faster than any man every could. "Die you Lost huma..." he paused in mid battle cry. "Lost *******!" He got up close to the Lost and shoved his right pistol into his gut and shot off 2 rounds. The Lost fell backwards with a heavy thunk...
(OOC Note: He is a cyborg like disco right, if not pretend he didn't shot.
He does talk, just not in the conventional sense. Half of what he says is phsical and the other half is mental, not like telepathy, but like impressions and emotions. Together it makes sense and normal humans don't notice, psychicly aware people can tell easily and very observent people notices somethings wrong, but ussaly can't tell.)
When the nut with the guns squeezed out two rounds of hot lead, it would have killed The Breakdance Kid, if he hadn't used his personal force field generator on his head. "Okay, first of all, I'm not lost, I know exactly where I am. Secondly, I can see you have a mission similar to mine. Also, my thought monitor shows that you're afraid of a psychic finding you. Wear this," he tossed a headband similar to his own to him, "this'll make you immune to all psychic assaults, including my thought monitor. Now, this is NOT a Rikti base, this is a pocket dimension full of extremely dangerous and mostly fatal villains. You might want to come with me if you don't want to die. I know one of the villains personally, and if you try the same tactics you did to me against him, you'll be incinerated in one quarter of a second. I know, others like you have met the same fate. Also, so we're clear, I'm not a cyborg, what you heard clunking is might lightweight, yet most decidedly metal, body armor. It's also quite flexible, watch," at that, The Breakdance Kid hit his music generator and started to live up to his name. After a few minutes, he decided to stop for more conversation with the obviously stunned gunman ("Did my auto-taser go off? Doubtful, that thing never works."), "Anyway, we should probably go hide together, as one group is harder to find than two groups; for parties with less than 5 people, at least. Let's go, someone may come by at any moment," when he didn't move, The Breakdance Kid became assured that his auto-taser went off, and proceeded to use his armor's strength enhancers to carry the guy with him. "I can see we're going to get along just fine."
(OOC: this guy uses martial arts/ super reflexes (that's all of them). He also is immune to psionics, has significantly increased defense (which explains his quick recuperation), increased strength (that armor is really helpful), and many, many devices, all to be revealed as we go. So far there's the harmonic wave generator, which breaks down ANY barrier, no matter what the source, or even if it's a dimensional barrier, he also has a music generator like D.I., but the music being played is different, his last known device is the auto-taser, which performs the blaster secondary attack "taser" as a response to a close range attack, when it works, which is seldom. He's not as dangerous as Haywire, but he can hurt most non-powered, melee-based villains very seriously, unless they're amazingly skilled. In fact, Vance won't stand a chance against his psionic immunity unless he has a non-psionic ability. Blind guardian obviously is not just sorta clairvoyant, and has good powers.)

Stunned was not a word to describe Ghost Sentry. He was looking at what had to be the most impractical man on the planet. Ghost looked at the thing in his hand, he didn't like it but with out his pills already he was becoming visable to psychics. He grunted and put the damn silly thing on. "Whaoas ahhefg oisssyfd..." What was he staring at. "Liiuwt hgent yuisencekke..." The man was rubbing his ears and looked lost. "Wyyhnnt eweswet unehru puuruulent..." He didn't get what was wrong with this new supposed ally. He was staring at Ghost Sentry as if he was babbling nonsense.
((uhm. have you given much consideration to balance issues here, or is it supposed to be a rollicking good time to have everyone slaughtered by some invincible tankmage? *sigh*))
Vance hadn't got any response from Jack, so he had decided to nose around a bit. More than once he'd run into Medb's barriers, and had to turn around, but he was beginning to get a feel for the place. Or he thought he was, until he turned a corner and came upon Ghost Sentry and the Breakdance Kid in a hallway.
He blinked a few moments in confusion. I'm pretty sure these guys aren't here for the party, he thought. Out loud, he said, "Um, hey, I think you're lost. The exit's that way."
Ghost Sentry turned quickly and relaxed for a moment when he only saw a pale man. Then he tensed up because he only saw a pale man. The only thing going Ghost Sentry's way was that he was not the psychic. Then a horrifing thought ocured to him, he couldn't sense the psychic anywhere. Had he been to late and the psychic had hid himself and was after him. Act cool, remain calm.
"Ujjihik uyeitr yenq yhhusw." The pale man was staring at him the same way the man behind him had. Whats wrong with these people, don't understand english.
(OOC: I never said his attacks were that strong, he's just got a lot of stuff. His specialty is putting a more literal spin on the term "breakdancing," is highly stealthy, and is impervious to psionics while wearing his headband. Also, he can read the thoughts of anyone not able to mask them.)
"Uh-oh, this guy couldn't have any physical abilities, so watch out for any special powers," he was beginning to suspect the pale guy was psychic, since he couldn't read his thoughts. But he doubted telepathy, he just didn't look the type. "Okay, this guy may have mind control, but it won't affect you with the headband, now get those guns out, and try not to shoot me... again." The Breakdance Kid hit his modified IPod and got ready for some action. As M.C. Hammer's "Can't Touch This" blared, he dodged and weaved towards the pale guy, while matching the beat, and then sent a flurry of breakdance-based attacks at him. As the song played, and they fought, The Breakdance Kid got ready for his ultimate attack. "Here goes," he thought.
"Stop! Hammer time."
At "stop," he was in his stance, at "hammer time," he launched his "Hammer time" attack. It was an overhead double-fisted pound move that sent the man to the floor. "You are now the prisoner of The Breakdance Kid and... him," He said, pointing at his gun-toting companion, "State your name, powers, and plan."
(OOC: Play along, Genius4Hire, I've decided to give Vance a part in this little subplot I've got going, or someone else can go save him, just try not to defeat T.B.K., but if you do, he'll come right back in. Also, Vance may escape, but since all he has is mind control and other psychic powers, he's no match in a fight.)

"I would rather not talk about her." Will opened the door "A 'cafeteria'? Sure we'll get Trevor and go down if we can get him away from that book." He followed Disco out. "And heroes have done alot to me, alot. Lets just say 'she' is conected and leave it there." The protectors are corpses? That explain alot. "So Disco did you see that guy that left the meeting after you entered, the old one, you know what he was all about?"
