This is my first attempt at a story of any kind so needless to say my writing is amateur at best and terrible at worst, But if you like this please feel free to say so
-----------------------------------------
Screams, Cries of the weak and helpless begging the strong to step in on their behalf, the song of this city played day and night so common that it had become a lullaby to those who had the safety of a roof over their head. In fact this Night was like any other in the city, for it was far to often the people turned and fled in terror as they sky turned its sickly green shade. The protective war walls had fallen once more and far too many knew what that meant. The Rikti were back, again, and heroes were already on their way to intercept. Some were anyway..
"Seth.., Seth get up, the Rikti are back in atlas park again" called a distinctly feminine voice. The soft and youthful call was repeated a few more times without luck before the first response of a upset groan came from the mass of blankets "Do I have to, they invaded atlas six hours ago, I haven't gotten any sleep for three days, cant someone Else handle it.." He asked as he sat up, a man who looked no older than twenty, his shaggy dark brown hair falling over his ears, extending his arms over his head to stretch away his aches and weariness.
"No they cant handle it, the vanguard is calling for every hero and your still able to fight, now get out of bed and get dressed!" Though Well spoken as any adult the girl who was ordering him around looked no more than nine years of age. "OK OK, Where are my tights, dose Rae have them?" he asked as he ran his finger through his hair, the color fading from it till it was Sable colored sliver-black
"No She got rid of the last pair, they were nearly destroyed when you fought that Romulus man with Mr. Nocturne and Mr. Seraph, You promised you would try out that armored suit Mr. nocturnes company made." She said pointing to the Dresser where it had been separated Into its main components.
"Did I promise? Oh well then.." he said walking over and sliding on the elbow length cybernetic gloves, and was pulling on the torso piece when he heard his sister say "Ive added another spell to your mask, Its an Arcane focal spell, when you use the Same energy that you use to transform and direct it all into the mask, it will pull it into a concentrated spot over your eye holes and let you aim by sight, you wont be able to see while you do though so only fire in short bursts ok?" At that she turned to see him standing before her In the heavy suit smiling "So I have laser eyes? that's just awesome. But how do I look, its a little bulky but...oh" As he spoke the sound of a electrical hum activated within the suit, and plates started to shift, closing down on the excess space till they had enveloped him closely "Man, its amazing what technology can do today. Its still a little loose but..OWWW!" he howled and fell back against the wall slamming himself into the wall, gasping for breath. His sister staring as if he were a mad man "He put spinal taps in the suit, I Think i just had six needles drill into my back"
His sister showed her concern and helped him back to his feet and handed him his mask, which he held to his face as it magically adhered itself to his flesh, his ears seeming to move up the side of his head elongating and poking up through his hair, now much furrier and canine shaped "I'm awake now, Ill get going, you brats handle dinner tonight" he said kissing her forehead, and flinging himself back off the balcony
Falling a solid eighty stories he slammed into the ground with such force the sidewalk cracked. Standing and lifting his legs looking at each "No broken bones, armor isn't that bad after all" crouching down and leaping with ease flying through the air as he heard a deeper voice crackle over his headphones "Hound where in the name of god are you, The Drop ships are coming in, we could use some help" It was the man who had supplied him with the suit he was wearing "I'm on my way locke just be patient. I'm almost to the tunnel in steel no...GAH!!"
Once more he screamed as he felt the intense power and crackling energy of a drop ship laser cannon slam into him, knocking him out of the sky and driving him into the side of a building, rebounding and landing in ta adjoining parking lot he groaned, standing and hearing the voice yelling in his ear "What the hell happened now!?" as he stood and looked at the ship he calmly answered "I just got swatted down" Reaching and taking hold of a car door handle he reached under the body, Lifting it easily over his head he hurled it upwards at the black mass in the sky, watching with satisfaction as an explosion rocked its hull "Take that you son of a...whoa" he whispered as a much larger explosion rocked the shadow in the sky and its nose started turning down, with a low whistle he said "Lucky shot" and jumped away once more
Entering atlas he saw all the normal signs, people screaming, dull roars of explosions going off, even on his way to the plaza he saw the warning red flash of a bomb ready to blow "Oh damn" he cried as he saw in the harsh light of the bomb a woman pinned to the ground by her dress, throwing himself over the woman he draped his cape around her and held on tight as he felt himself torn at by the flames, as he stood he was thanked, called a hero, worshiped, and every other pattern any hostage will preform before his savior "Your welcome miss, not go to the hospital and get checked for radiation poisoning, Ive got work to do." He said as he took to the air once more, landint on the roof of a skyscraper Overlooking the statue, two men were standing before him turned upon his arrival
"Hey guys, whats happening..." was all he said
