Ch 8. The gang's all here, almost

William turns back towards the alley, hearing her voice. Upon reaching her, he crouches down to talk to her. He looks rather unfocused too. In truth, he's listening for footsteps and watching shadows. "You have to trust me, no matter what." He says to her in a tone of finality.

*with eyes the size of saucers, and the breath ragged, does what she can do at the moment. nods, as the eyes turn to look at the shadows in the area and shakes harder than before, her courage utterly gone. and the skin turning a sickly grey with the intense fear.

*the mind thankfully has shut itself off from broadcasting on a wide frequency, as the only thing it thinks of now is .. "move one foot, then the other .. now before .. "

The shadow whispered from the darkness beyond Sparks. " Such a good girl. You brought him right to me." The voice rose to normal speaking levels and had moved in the shadows, there was something familiar about the softspoken man's voice. " Hello William, took you long enough to come to the rescue. I was beginning to think your hearing was failing in your old age."


Jason slid into the driver seat and started the truck as Trevor backed the muscle car away before pulling around to lead, only to come to a screeching halt as three figures seemed to appear out of thin air in front of him. Two appeared normal except the swords they brandished but the third was definitely a meta, his body seemingly made of copper. " Eric, you wanted some excitement.... " Jason sputtered, looking in the mirror at another pair of figures blocking the way behind them.

William scoops Tally up in his arms, and takes to the air, fire blow-torching behind them as he goes. About 50 feet in the air, he yells down "If you're going to shoot, shoot. Don't waste time with theatrics."

He then proceeds towards the three blocking the front way out, flaming them too, and suggesting to Maria that any help she could give would be appreciated.

Alice looks at the trio bocking their path and frantically glances behind her at the pair walking towards them. "Who are they?" she asks "What in the bloody hell is going on?"

Eric smiles at Jasons comment. He looks to Al as she starts to get worried and starts to open the door then stops. He looks at her for a second and says "The Cd is in my bag.... Just so you know. I'll try to take out the ones behinds us so you can take off. I can catch up." Eric hops down to the ground and starts to walk over to the back of the vehicle. "Excuse me." He calls out to the people behind the SUV. "We're trying to leave and I dont wanna see any of you get run over."

OOC: WHat do they look like... are they "the men in black?"

*barely feels herself getting picked up and carried. then finally hears the words that william says .. and with one hand moves it intothe bag of marbles and chrging them .. lets them drop whereever they will.

*like mini missiles the charged orbs drop, exploding as they hit the ground like morters. resounding booms and blasts sending shards of glass and pavement out, striking anything within the radius.

(There won't be much left of the place by the time we finish... muwahahahaaa!!! Which... umm... is to say... oops?)

Alice nods at Eric "Ok," she says quietly as he leaves the truck "Be careful, Brat." She then turns around and watches Eric approach the two walking up to the back of the truck with a worried expression on her face.

The shadow appeared on a fire escape as Will cleared the alley and solidified to a familiar face. " You'd think an old man would grow some patience after all these years. And you act like you don't even remember your old pal Wraith." The cocky smile faded as he brought his hands together. " Maybe it's because you left me for dead in that Angolan hellhole." A wave of cold burst from his hands towards Will and Sparks, narrowly missing their flightpath.

The armed pair scattered , but the armored one stood his ground as Will's flame washed over him. He simply stood there with no response, even as Sparks mini bombs begin to fall near him. His only response was an odd look on his face.


"You can't handle them." Jason snapped at Eric. " Their professionals." He turned to Alice and Michael. " I'll be right back." Michael's voice popped in her mind Don't worry, I'll keep you company

Behind the truck, Jason glanced at Eric as the pair stalked towards them. " You can have the little one." Both the pair are about the same size.

Alice tries to smile at Michael and barely succeeds. She watches Eric and Jason approach the pair with a worried face as she says "I just wish there was something I could do to help. Instead I just sit here feeling bloody useless!" Alice hits the back seat of the car with her fist in frustration.

William flies to a halt, dropping Maria near the ground. "And you could never really stick to your point. That was always your failing in training. No focus. Had to be the showman." William says, admonishing Wraith. "You want to tell me something. Then tell me. I have a city to destroy. Or haven't you heard?"

*hits the ground, and shudders with fear, then starts backing away from william and the man from the shadows. then slows, as the mind starts to release itself from its own imprisionment, and lets out a high pitched shriek of terror, before scrambling to the feet.

*wanting to run, backs up and bumps into the wall instead, and freezes. as the scene opens in front of here, the shadowy voice seeming to trigger a long and distant memory, that had been blocked, covered and almost totally removed.

*the tone and pitch are different, but the fact it came from the shadows, is the only common thread to the present day. then instead of running, just stands there. staring into space as the mind tried to pull up the rest of the lost memories, andfails. keeping sparks in a trance like state and non-combative.

Eric looks at Jason and smiles "uhh... Okay!" (Initiative 17+8 = 25). When Its Eric turn he does a "body block/Ram" to the one on the left. As he takes off at his opponent a sonic boom erupts from him sending dirty, trash and debris into the air. (Strike 13+9 = 22). If I hit he takes 70+12 = 82 SDC. And is knocked 10 yards away (If under 400lbs) also Looses Initiative and 2 attacks.

OOC: Forgot to add I take 20 SDC also.

Wraith laughed. " So I've heard old man. And it was nice of you to show up and take the credit for me at the SCRET building. Cops already have a hate on for you so we got away free and clear." He sent another blast of cold at Will, coming nowhere's close.

don't feel bad. I'm not much use either michael replied, watching the unfolding mess.


Trevor seemed to come out of nowhere next to Sparks as she realized the two carrying swords were approaching her. " Snap out of it." He said as they got closer, raising their weapons.
"This is too easy." One of them snickered.
Not sure if she had even heard him, Trevor pushed Sparks behind a dumpster." Stay down, I don't want to hurt you." He stepped towards the pair, out of her line of sight. One of the attackers let out a warcry just before the street shook from the explosion released from Trevors'body. Debris scattered everywheres and the pair of attackers flew backwards, leaving Trevor still standing in place, his body licking with flames.

" Not bad twerp." Jason admitted as Eric sent one of the pair sprawling. The other turned to look at his companion before throwing a ball of green flames at Jason, striking and knocking him down.

Back in the car, Michael jumped as Jason's cellphone rang on the floor of the front seat.
