Epic M&M: Issue 4 (IC)

[Elementor]

"Can't," Michelle responds obviously depressed about it. "Someone has got to hold down the fort while everyone is gone, looks like I got elected."

"Well, if you want I can hang out here with you. The Waterpark is kinda public for me and my plethora of extra appendages." Vince emphasizes by extending his wings and whipping his tail about. Besides, with all the bigwigs out of town you might need my help."

Johan

Johan sits in his room, studying and wondering if it safe to get back to the workshop. In the end, he comes to the conclusion that if it wouldn't be safe, his armor might need the testing anyway, so he leaves to see how the filling is progressing.

You get to the workshop and hanger area and... can't find any evidence of the holes. In fact, memory serving you well, the holes were there, there and... there. And the crater was... oh, you'd be standing on it. But there is smooth ground, unbroken asphault and green grass in the proper places. And you can see Anna and Rebound working on things, along with other students, in the workshop.

Sanjay
You are kicking the ball around when you are tackled hard. Thank goodness for metal skin. Picking yourself up you are confronted with Monica, dressed in jean cut-offs and a half-shirt, smirking at you as she keeps the ball in the air easily.

"You made it too easy on me, sport," she says with a grin, her eyes flickering with electricity, just like her transparent midsection. "I'd hope you're better at this than X," she says, turning and kicking the ball with her heel over her head, catching it and tucking it under her arm. "You going to the wave pool too?"

Those are some amazing shorts she's in... or something like that.

Michelle

Michelle attempts to amuse herself by freaking out Tara. Turning on and off the lights, turning on the sprinklers by where she is standing. Making random noises into the field's PA system.

The sprinklers get her, and get her good, and spook Hoppy who goes bounding off across the field. Tara, soaked, gives chase, looking none too pleased.

John
Randall nods. "Yup, I'm meeting someone there. Hey, how'd you find out. I haven't told anyone. I sure don't mind though. Wonder if anyone else wants to come. We should get the whole team together maybe?"

"Hey, kitty," Sanjay says, getting up and dusting himself off. "Nice tackle, you're pretty good. And, yeah, I'm way better than X...at this," he adds with a grin.

"Of course, I'm going to the pool, wouldn't be much fun without me," he responds, looking her over and imagining the two-piece she's likely to wear. He steps up to her and says with a smirk, "Now, you gonna give me back my ball, or do I have to take it?"

"Thinking, Sport," she says mimicing his smirk, circling him. "I'm more than pretty good, you know. I was going to become a pro," she says somewhat wistfully. "Things sort of changed," she says. Something curls around your ankle and you see a tigers tail.

When you look back up, her eyes have turned feline and her skin seems someone tiger striped, but she hasn't fully transformed. You suddenly feel very much like a mouse trapped by a cat.

"You good at anything else?" she purrs seductively, dropping the ball between you and her and putting her foot on it. "Or is it just football you like?"

Thanks, but if you want to go, you should go. Who knows when we will get another day off. Besides you shouldn't hide, the more you show up in public the more they will come to except you and it's not like I am stuck in the war room. But if you really want to stay I would enjoy the company.

The sprinklers get her, and get her good, and spook Hoppy who goes bounding off across the field. Tara, soaked, gives chase, looking none too pleased.

Oops...

First they recruit Sanjay, now the yard is in perfect order. One doesn't have to be a genius to know what happened here, Johan thinks to himself. He walks over to the two. "I see you finished cleaning up. What are you working on now?"

Li, however, makes no such comment. She enters a room and comes out with the top half of a Gi. "Remove your gloves and put this on over your shirt, please," she says. As you do you see her cut herself on the top of the hand with a knife she must have brought from the room as well. Painful no doubt, but not very bad.

"Now strike me," she says calmly. Her hands are by her sides, a few drops of blood trickling down her fingers to drip on the floor. "Quickly, please. I do not wish to miss breakfast."

X12 bows slightly, and accepts the Gi top. "As you wish," he says. Removing his gloves, he hands them to whomever is closest, then puts the top on quickly. Pausing for a moment to collect himself and to allow Li to collect herself, he raises a fluid guard and jabs for the girl, closed palm, in the face. (OOC: I don't know if she's going to dodge or not, so I won't assume I connect. Assuming it connects, I'm not going to pull the punch, and will follow through.)

OOC: Either the post I made yesterday got deleted, or I punched the wrong button (the more likely scenario).

"Hey John, yeah that'd be fun. I'm meeting a friend there at 2:00, and it'd be great if a bunch of us could go. By the way, how did you know I was going there? I don't remember telling anyone."

After talking to John, Randall will go looking for Michelle. "So you're the official leader now? That's cool, you'll do a good job. Some of us are going to the waterpark, is there no way you could come too?"

You lash out and she grabs your sleeve, knocking your strike wide.

"So it is because you are foolish," she says. "If touching my skin will bring you pain, why would you choose to strike one of the few parts of my body left uncovered? And why would you choose to strike it with your bare skin, when you have covered forearms, elbows and knees?"

"We've tried to tell him that before," Carl says with a laugh.

She simply looks up at you with those big doe-like eyes, then returns the knife to the room and closes the door.

Several minutes later, as you all return from using the bathhouses, she says "Please, it is now breakfast. We must go to eat, yes?"

"He is inexperimentaed more than foolish... and he is not wrong, but not totally right. What the use of figthing if his opponent can strike him on an uncovered body part and hurting X both by the blow and X's healing power, and at the same time, undoing all damage his opponent have received? I remember first time I saw X in a fight. He was thrown on an opponent who was knock out, the opponent get up and X was out of combat.

Anyway, breakfast is starting soon, and we must prepare ourselves. If we have a bad start, I feel it it will become an hell this visit. And I have the feeling too it will not the first time we will hear about the problem of X powers..."

On that, Kevin leave to the bathouse to get ready for the breakfast.

"Please, it is now breakfast. We must go to eat, yes?"

"I'm ready. DO you serve tea with the breakfast, I think I'll need some more if I don't want to sleep in the face of master Wen"
