Superhero 101-Open RP
Sophie lay on the hospital bed, her body void of life.
Tyler approached nervously and took her hand.
"I'll do something about this Soph, I promise you"
"I try tomake a new home and you bugs keep getting on my nerves!" Adam slammed the final Arachnobot into a wall "leave! Now!" the Arachnos goons did as they were told as our mistunderstood elven hero stood in a threatening manner. He hated being bothered when he was in a sour mood, especially when he had decided to live in a potential war zone to save his friends from himself.
he had no other option. he theoretically had two weeks left to live, whether he wins or not. So he might aswell keep friends rather than make new enemies. he didn't want an army of people dancing on his grave.
"I thought I told you last year to leave me alone!" Adam yelled, not even turnning round
"really? I never pay attention to small detail" said a rather metallic voice from behind
"I don't care how many more legs you have! I don't care whether you have become the new leader of the world! Just go away!" Adam ordered. It was Rapidfire. he had undergone a change. his pair of human legs were replaced by six metallic spiderlegs and from his torso were four more. the ones from his torso each had a mounted Laser and a tripple blade on the tip
"Well, Fine then, but beware. if you survive your fated battle the Meta-Arachnos will have your head" Rapidfire warned
"I see you have your own group. impressive. however, I'm not in the mood to talk. go away" Adam spoke with silent anger. Rpidfire left in a single bound.
------------------------------------------------------------
John stepped into the hospital room where Sophie was kept and tried to talk to Tyler
"I expect you have a pretty mean death wish on my brother" John's mouth movements were invisible behind the shadow of his hood. only his eyes were visible
"I want you to talk it out with me. I mean, if anyone can calm Adam down, it's me. And I trained with people Like Manticore, I can be trusted" behind the shadow of his hood, he gave a small grin
------------------------------------------------------------
"Miss Jones, I'm just making sure of this but, are there any books on the Airvertians which are not in Airvertian?"
"Ms. Hastoresse, I have checked hundreds of times, I even checked with MAGI, there are no books in this city that are in English or otherwise"
"ok, thankyou" pretending to look dejected, Alice left the school library. when she got outside, she summoned a lightning bolt which carried her and her reassured grin to a distant place.
((the test server event is great. I got beaten by ALL of the Arachnos patrons and my elec brute was taken out by Statesman himself. so pretty cool ))
Tylers face turned to anger and he threw a fist at John, narrowly missing him and hitting the wall, rubble flying everywhere.
"Have you seen what hes done to her?!"
"Calm down Tyler!" John yelled "Just calm down. Don't go haywire here, I don't want to use my bow" he offered Tyler a chair while he went to grab one for himself
"let me tell you a story. Seven or eight years ago, when I was ten and adam was nine, something... happened. now, my family is nothing but superheroes. my father was The Sonic Comet. but that was besides the point. the only person in our family at that time withoiut their powers yet was Adam, which was strange because the rest of us got ours strait from birth. anyway. on this day, we were celebrating my parents aniversary, Shadow decided to pay a visit. he massacred my entire family except for me and Adam. he left us. three days after the massacre, I noticed that Shadow would come for me to get to Adam. I left him in the woods by himself. At the time I thought I did the right thing. but now I regret my decision. he survived three years in British woodland, which is impressive for his age if you ask me. however, when he was twelve, Shadow awakened a dark magic inside Adam. it unleashed his power and he managed to destroy his home town. This resulted in Adam being exiled from England and sent to America. He spent four years as a superhero in Legend City. However, when he was forteen, a villain made him relive the massacre of our family again. two years later, about a week ago, Shadow came back and destroyed Legend City. Adam has been wanting to destroy Shadow ever since he was nine" he stopped to take a sip of water "he has this battle with Shadow within the next two weeks. he is trying his hardest to prevent anything from happening, but it's difficult when you've got the fate of the universe in your hands. He's got the entire world against him yet he's willing to sacrifice his life for it. He has revived you and healed Sophie, and almost lost all of his magic trying to do so. he needs support not people like you wanting to have him exiled from this country too"
"Head Boy wants me to do some research for him Myrtyl" said Pious.
"Who Tyler?"
"Yeah.. him."
"How did he reach you? Telepathically?"
"Its either that or something like it. He wants me to look into Ancient Airvertian. Will you come with me?"
"Sure. I like spending time with you. Besides, the Library is our special place, remember?"
Pious smiled.
[Later that evening..]
"Hi there, erm.. do we have any books on Ancient Airvertian?"
"You're the second person today Pious. Whats this about?"
"To be honest Madam, I haven't a clue."
"We have no books on the race, but there are some written for them. That is, if you can read it."
"Do we have any video footage? Documentaries.. stuff like that?"
"Yes. History section, third isle to the left, you'll find some video documented history on the Airvertians."
"Thank You"
"Listen to me and listen good,I have part of me thats a VERY powerful demon running around out there,probably massacaring races, and i'm still head boy and i DON'T put lives in danger...what hes done is inexcusable!"
Tyler glared intenetly,waiting for a response.
"Well, I suppose I better get these videos to Tyler. What will you do now Myrtyl?"
"Actually Pious, I know we've only just met and all, but my dad seems to like you so I figured he'd be okay with it if you came round for dinner this evening.. unless of course you dont want to."
Pious thought about it for a second. "Well, I mean, I'm free for anything.. it'd.. it'd be great to meet your.." he gulped, "..parents."
"You okay? You're stuttering again"
Clearly, he was nervous at the second thought of meeting Headmaster Dirigente at his house, with his daughter, so he quickly changed the subject and tried not to think about it.
"Tyler was sent to the hospital wing right? That should be a good place to look for him."
[Later that afternoon...]
"Ah, Tyler, there you are. I couldn't get books, but here are some videos, which should be easier to study."
Woah! A real life Wyvern! thought Myrtyl.
Tyler still looked annoyed,but smiled slightly,waving his hand the videos teleported into his open palm,
"thanks,Pious"
Tyler glared at John,
"Don't.let him screw up again,kapiche?"
"Tyler, Adam is living in Siren's Call fighting of Arachnos just so he can live in peace. I think he is too busy to make any mistakes that will effect anyone near here. and he dies in two weeks so whatever mistakes he makes will stop by then, and I dont think this demon you speak of has permision from Shadow to leave the Netherworld. the only thing that can open a portal between both dimensions is the creator to dont sweat about that" he turned to the door
"Those videos are filled with falsehood, Tyler, if you want information about the Airvertians, talk to me or Adam, however, speaking with someone like you, who thinks he's something he's not, don't expect to get anything from me" in a flash of light, he disappeared from the room
------------------------------------------------------------
Meanwhile, in Siren's Call. Adam was doing a bit of Tai-chi after his meal which composed mainly of fish. he was at peace until he sensed something. He did a dragon tail kick to trip whatever was behind him. he then pressed his foot on what would be the neck
"State your buisiness then leave me alone!"
Tylers eyes widened, and taking a step to the window,he opened it with a heave,
"Sirens call"
Jumping out, in a mass of flames he teleported away.
"I hunger for human flesh!" stated the inhuman stalker after it revealed itself
"well, I'm sorry to disappoint you" Adam picked the wolfman up by the scruff of the neck "I'm not entirley human" he then did a crane kick, slamming it into the wall behind it and knocking it out cold
"I could really do with something to eat" Adam walked inside the have some food before taking a stroll down a statley street
((I'm working on a video guide for new players. it's going well, it shouldn't last longer than ten minutes. all I need is the privacy to work on the narration and I'll be done ))
Tyler stepped out of the flames and walked forwards into sirens call.
Looking around with a sudden paranoia, he saw the limp body of a wolf like creature before him, it suddenly burst to life and he had to shoot a torrent of flame to keep it at bay, progressing forwards, he found what he was looking for in a small building,
"Hello Adam" He said,smiling.
"Tyler" Adam said, rather plainly. he stood to put away his plate when he heard voices outside "excuse me a minute" he dived out the window behind him.
"there he is!"
"I told you to LEAVE ME ALONE!" there were crashes, bangs and thumps for a few seconds before...
"Retreat!" Adam then casualy walked around the building and back to the front door
"I do apologise, that happens every five minutes here" he walked past Tyler
"I suppose you want to know about Airvertian history? well, mystic law says I can't take you to Terrortheus. However, I can tell you the history of them. I will allow you to interview me. but this doesn't change things between us"
Adam sat, waiting for a question
"I don't care about your race, Adam,I care about one of them..or i preume hes one of you....I want to know about Shadow"
He frowned, clearing away some discarded rubble and sitting down on a rock,
"I want to know everything you do and I think yuor going to tell me"
He folded his lrgs and made himself relatively comfortable.
"Shoot"
Adam sighed, he had been through this mistake millions of times
"Shadow isn't an Airvertian. Be lucky that you arent in Terortheus and within earshot of an Airvertian, you'd be jailed for blasfamy, then executed" Adam was more stable and had to refrain himself from attacking Tyler because of this "Shadow, as I said before, is the creator of the Netherworld, making him a God in his own way. in the great battle of the elements, my ancestor Shaventos defeated Shadow, but it wasn't permanent. Shadow mannaged to seal all of the Terortheun gods in my sword and shield. within the next two weeks, I must do what a god couldn't. This event will kill me in return for the saftey of the universe" he paused for a second "Shadow posses every ability imaginable apart from Sacred Light. Ty'lak would most probably be trapped in the Netherworld until the great battle where he will be released to help cause havoc on the world. I'm afraid thats all I know"
Tyler paced up and down the small dimly lit room.
Absent mindedly levitating a rock in front of him.. the sudden thought of Sophie crossed his mind and he lost focus, sending the rock hurtling at the wall and smashing into pieces.
His mouth turned to a frown, and he asked,
"What can i do to help."
Adam almost started to cry. So many people have said that, and all of them have died trying
"unfortunatley, due to past experiences, I wish for you to stay away from the battle ground. I have seen many valiant people fail in their attempts to assist me, and that has made it worse"
Adam walked towards the door. he realised what made Tyler weak against the Circle.
"You are a good friend. But if you want to know how to fight demons like Ty'lak and Shadow, you have to fight your fears. Face them. I learnt to face my fears when I was thrown into the Netherworld. Conquering fear is like riding a roller coaster. You dont want to go on it at first, but when you do, you have a feeling that you want to go again. the more you do it, the more you become immune. before you know it. you have no fear. try it. Before you die, you will have to face the Circle again, at least once. the earlier the better. I need to get some more food, you're welcome to come and visit any time. good bye" with the click of his fingers, a fishing rod appeared. he then flew out the door and toward the shore ((Hey! I rhymed! ))
Tyler stared in an impotent rage...Telling him to face his fears...how dare he?!
Briefly steeping forward out of the door, he was ambushed by a blue ink man of the Tsoo,
"Gimme all of your money..or your life,kid."
Tyler smiled..his day was perking up,
"You picked the wrong guy to mess with, bud"
Flaring up his hand, he shot a cone of fire at the warrior, setting him ablaze.
Tyler stepped over the writhing body of the tsoo thug and began to teleport away,
"And dont call me kid"
Adam thought a good stroll through a small area in steel canyon would be ok. So, donning his street clothes, he made his way there.
As he walked the busy streets, gaining strange looks from passers by, Adam thought that if he cant train people, he might as well have a go at entertaining them. So, finding a stable box to stand on, e summoned a fiddle and started to play. Slowly but surley, people stopped to listen before heading off to work again, some put some money on the box he was standing on and a few children sat to listen to Adam do what he does best.
I wonder how Pious and that are doing back at school. I expect they would do alot beter without me endangering their lives...
"So, how was your first day Pious?" Dirigente questioned.
"It's been awesome sir.. I'm still trying to forget the bad start with Skawn, and the girl I hurt in the hallway.. I can't seem to find her. I was going to apologies"
"Well, I've called you here to show you how proud I am Pious; as a mutant who's powers have unfairly been dormant for the most of your learning years, you have done exceedingly well to catch up with your piers. You've learnt alot about your defensive gifts as well as your illusionary abilities.. Myrtyl, what are you doing here?"
"Erm.. I was wondering if it'd be okay for Pious to come round to ours for dinner?" she asked, with a silk tongue.
[Dirigente thought deeply for a while]
"Sure.. Your mom'll be pleased to see you're dating again"
"Dad!" Myrtyl scowled.
"Thank you Mr Dirigente, I look forward to tonight"
"Myrtyl, why dont you and Mr Hunter spend the remainder of the afternoon in the training room?"
"That'll be alot of fun! Come Pious!"
"Me? Fight Myrtyl.. what.. I'm.. I'm not ready."
"Come on!" she screamed. In her excitement, she almost yanked off his arm.
"It thought you didn't like fighting.." Pious plead.
"This wont be real, now quit being a chicken."
Tyler was in the training room,his only escape was the adrenaline rush it gave him to kick the bad guys into submission.
Delivering a high kick to a tsoo ninja he watched in satisfaction as he was sent hurtling backwards and onto the floor,disappearing in a puff of smoke.
"Very impressive!"
Tyler jumped and turned around,shooting a flare from his hand at the man before him, narrowly missing the janitor by an inch.
"Oh my God! I'm sorry! are you ok?!"
The man smiled, and made his way to the main computer,which acted as the brain of the entire training room,
"No worries,just here to install updates...we're on issue 7 now y'know?"
Tyler smiled,
"About time as well,sure everythings upto scratch?"
The man took his turn to grin and replied,
"is it ever on release?"
Tyler nodded, and walked over
"Good point,you mind if i see some I.D?"
Fumbling around in his pocket,the man pulled out an I.D card which Tyler took into his hand and surveyed delicately, he placed it back into the mand hand and bit his lip,
"Seems good to me"
Looking satisfied,the man proceeded to walk towards the door,
"Just one thing" tyler interrupted.
"Yeah?"
"I'm not a complete idiot" Tyler strode over and kicked the man hard in the shin,crippling him momentarily,using this itme to his advantage Tyler through a hard flaming punch to the mans face.
Looking satisfied,Tyler proceeded to the door,turning back to see the circle mystic teleporting away to the Zig.
Tyl;er looked up at Myrtyl and Pious. His face covered in a loook of pure determination and rage.
Striding right by the two and towards Mr. Isidors office,he briefly muttered back,
"They are NOT my family."
Taking a sharp left he through open the office door.
Tyler chuckled,he'd completely caught Pious off guard,
"I need you to pop up into the library for me and ask for anything about these "airvetians" its time we found out what these guys can do"
Strutting forward out of the gates, he gave one last message
"Meanwhile,try not to miss me while I go do some interrogation"
