EPIC M&M: Issue 7 (IC)

Jay looks at Jennifer who is standing on teh table. "Simple, and we can leave Jennifer out of the case. I like that idea.

Now, for tracking his duplicate, or the original from his duplicate will be no easy task. Even Cosmo power used on the original might not be enough to make the others dissapear. We have enough of New York wandering around, no need to have permanent duplicate of Split too."

Michael, 5/5, hunky-dory

"We can't leave the real Jen here. She'll be through everyone's stuff and escape anyway. Somebody is gonna have to end up watching her anyway." Michael speaks up from the side. of the debate.

"Best way to hunt things that run and hide is to trap em. I'd bet Split can't teleport through a door. We fight him somewhere with very few and well guarded exits."

"Or we take out his doubles first. Once they drop I dont think he can create them again for quite a while."

Lynn keeps her head low and avoids eye contact with those they pass as they walk through the city. She slips her hands into the back pockets of her jeans as the feeling comes over her, supressing her curiosity and instinct to touch him to discover the source of the sensation.

When X12 stops outside the brick building she raises an eyebrow at the sign above the door. A Telepath? Must be on official business if he's coming to see a Telepath "I'll wait here while you're inside," She offers.

Plus we will have to be able to counter his invisiblity as well, there isn't enough of us that can see though it to be effective. But first we should think of a place that this can take place, somewhere out of the way, where civilians can't get hurt.

 

[Velmont]

"Ok, so we have to:

A) Have someone watching Jen
B) Attract Split
C) A mean to track Split's clones, so we can be sure none escape us.
D) A way to foil Split's invisibility.

To watch over Jen, I think we can have a few Johan to take care of her.

To attract Split, Loki will use his illusion to create a false Jen. For his Invisibility power, I might have an idea.

To track Split's clone, I don't have the smallest idea how it is possible. Maybe someone have an idea.

Cosmo, can you suppress only one power at a time, or is it a all or nothing thing? As I said, I don't want to see Split's duplication power going off and having some clone becoming orginals. But if you can only have his invisibility turn off, I could lend you my helmet. You'll be able to see through his invisibility and use your power to have it down. Once he is visible, it will ease our job."

OoC: Sorry it took me a while to get Johan's reply, but I had to make sure to not have forgotten an instance of Split actually mistreating Jennifer.

IC: "Color me blind, but I do not recall Split treating Jennifer like a dog. In fact, I remember him being one of the 'good guys' when we first encountered the Red Rose Syndicate, as he had been hired to recover Mrs. Raynes, had he not.
If she was being treated badly, she most likely wouldn't be so keen on getting back to him.
And we certainly won't be leaving Johans to look after her, as that would require at least one instance of my duplicating other, and he is completely lacking in the caretaking department. Heck, he assaulted her just this morning right after she had agreed to return a glove that Anna had been working on."

As Loki points out the possibility of using an illusionary Jennifer instead of the real one, Johan feels somewhat better. He still doesn't like it one bit, though.

"Split is NOT one of the good guys. He's a common merc that likes to take jobs from the bad guys." Vince spits out as though Split's very name leaves a bad taste. "He has my wing that the mutt there tore off. And our ability to see invisible doesnt work on him. He has some improved version that lets him avoid our sight."

"He has my wing that the mutt there tore off. And our ability to see invisible doesnt work on him. He has some improved version that lets him avoid our sight."

"Yeah, Split's about as good as roadkill stew," Sanjay says, nodding at Vince's assessment. He shrugs. "I don't see any way to effectively counter his invisibility. We might just have to get the drop on him before he can use it. It's more important that we counter his ability to duplicate, or more accurately, his ability to teleport to a duplicate. Besides which, how do we know he won't come 'rescue Jennifer' with a double, expecting a trap? If he does that, this whole plan is useless."

If she was being treated badly, she most likely wouldn't be so keen on getting back to him.

"She has no social skills, no education beyond the basics and has no concept of right and wrong and I might add I am still waiting for the rest of my jewerly to be returned." She says shaking her head. "It seems obvious to me that Split thinks of her as property and not a human being."

"Not all abuse has to be physical Johan, you tell someone they are no good and that they are lucky that you are there for them and they will come to believe it fast enough." She adds quietly. "Besides Split is the one that killed the Mag lev conductor in cold blood, do you really want her going back to him?"
