Paragon City... A city of heroes ((Open))
(OOC:Blitz wasn't alwasy welcomed where he went, he had abilities most people thought should be taken away from him. Blitz though loved to fight and take down teh drug dealers that came into his neighrborhood.)
It was a hot, humid, and quiet day, Ryan was walking dwon teh street when he heard it. A gun fired and a quick scream caused Ryan to run ahead and observe from the corner. He watched as he saw skulls robbing an old lady of her purse and taking her car. The skulls got into the car and rove away laughing, Ryan walked up to the lady and helped her up.
"Why didn't you help me. I saw you there watching from the corner.." the old lady pushed Ryan away, "You know i wish that more people these days would stand up for themselves and fight back. What this town needs is a hero." she walked away without another word.
Ryan took her words to heart and knew that she was right. Ryan, himself had abilities that he was afraid of showing because people might push him away or ship him off to some lab. But this lady was right.
---later that night---
Kicking a can of soda down the street, Ryan again heard a gun shot and a scream. He ran to teh corner and saw it was the same two guys that stole that lady's purse and car. This time they were robbing a store. Remembering what that lady said, Ryan grabbed his fingerless-gloves and wrapped them tight around his knuckles. He walked into teh doorframe, "If i were you. I'd put that money down and leave." he said with a serious face.
The skulls turned around and looked at him, "hahah kid, what do you think you're gonna do to use, huh?" one of the skulls said pointing his gun directly at Ryan.
Ryan sped towards teh skulls with quick speed and punched to Skull in the face and swip-kicked the other knocking them both to teh ground. "That...Now leave...and don't come back.." he said
The skulls knew they were beaten, "We'll be back and you'll be the one sorry." Ryan looked over at the store dude. "Thank you so much, how can i ever repay you, Ryan. You saved my store and my life." the guy said.
"It was nothing sir. Now if you excuse me, i need to do something." Ryan said and sped off grabbin the lady's purse...
---the lady's house---
Ryan walked up nervously and knocked on the door. He waited a couple minutes, then reknocked. The inside light flickered on and he heard the lock..unlock.
"Who is it," the old lady said openin the door, "Ohh..its you..what do you want"
"I came to bring back your purse, ma'am.." Ryan said handing the lady her purse.
"Where did you get this...," she asked checkin her stuff.
"I found those guys and took your advice. I was scared until now to show that i have abilities most humans don't have.." Ryan said, but was interrupted...by the old lady.
"Say no more...i knew you had the abilities...I knew you were special, because i was once just like you. Afraid...afraid of what people might think of me, if they saw what i can do. It wasn't until the War that i lost my powers. I used every last drop of my ability to help fight. Believe it or not, Im only 45..." the lady said, "And now i was wondering..if you'd like to help keep those Skulls off and out of our town. I got a job for you."
"Ummm..okay...What would you like me to do..." Ryan said witha grin.
"There are two other people just like you and me. I want you to find them and have them help you take down the Skulls HQ jsut located outside of town," she says writin down the names and addresses of the people and then the Skulls HQ.
"I will do that ma'am. You can count on me." Ryan said speeding off into the dawn of day.
(OOC: You two can step in anytime. You can control me to if you like just for the meeting part. and i hope this gives you guys something to do )
((OOC: Which two? We've got Prodiguy, Pyro, Icicool, Flame, Fang (me), and the MIA thread starter. Of course, I would love it if you said me. ))
(OOC: Anyone can step in...i jsut you two cuz..you two were the only names i saw...but shoot come in Burning)
((Heh, I just realized; I have never been in an RP where Experiment simply does his job. I mean, in most, he will START OFF with his job, and then get pulled into this alternate dimension, or go help one of his friends...
This could be more interesting than I previously thought.))
The device 2.0 had been working on sparked, and he ducked, sliding under the desk. After a few seconds of non-explodey, he peered at it. He finally stood, and began inspecting it closer.
THEN it exploded, sending him back a few feet.
He coughed, black smoke filling the room almost instantly. Jenny stepped in, and threw a broom at him. "Clean."
"Aw, c'mon sis, it isn't my fault a smoke screen device explodes in such a mess!" he whined, picking the cleaning utensil up nonetheless.
"...I will never understand why you talk like that. I KNOW you are trying to make a smoke screen device, and I KNOW it explodes in such a mess. You could have just said 'It isn't MY fault!'" his sister sighed, shaking her head. She turned, and walked from the room quickly.
However, the police band on Experiment's belt began chirping, signalling a disturbance. He placed the device in his ear, nodded, and returned it to his belt. "Domestic violence in King's Row. Father assaulted his two daughters, and has the wife hostage. Be back later."
"Let the lower heroes deal with it." Jenny muttered, but 2.0 was already gone, flying up the exit tube at an extreme speed. "Ugh... Jerk."
((OOC: Thats the spirit!!! Now if someone would just continue this RP....Or atleast do something that I can reply to... ))
