Generation Legacy Issue #12

"Or perhaps you, like many others, simply wish to use me to acheive your ends. I very much doubt even you can keep me from my fate. As for unity and peace, I know your goal is to be the one on top. No matter the cost to human lives. It is not what I seek." Cassie says as she crosses her arms across her chest firmly. "No, I very much doubt you are powerful enough to undo the fate I will face in the end of things."

“I have defied death, the Eternals, and even the Dark Lord of hell; your fate is a simple matter of will. Your defiance is based on ignorance, everyone has a stake in the matter, and those that are telling you to choose this path only do so because it is the path of least resistance. But I value your defiance,” Red Witch replies.

“Your friends don’t respect you, they only respect power, you want to free from them conflict but even now,” she waves her hand and an image forms in a glowing orb of crimson power, showing Ryan. The Red Witch continues, “I believe you know this one, quite well, yes? But do you know how much he despises your presence… how he is only here to save you to further his own personal crusade and agenda…”

Kelly

Legion laughs, “Why? For love of course, only when you see how far I will go will you see how pointless it is to try and deny your fate that we were meant to be together, for you I will form an empire… of one mind, one singular purpose… and you can be my queen. Am I insane, perhaps… but who can stop me? I am a man without a face… I am the force behind the masses… I am Legion and all will bow and tremble at my majesty!” she cackles loudly, waving her hands defiantly.

Timothy

Jun Min shrugs, “I don’t know, Ryan was just worried. But this is a safe place Tim, so just relax okay? I wish I could be more of a comfort to you, but maybe you can tell me about Jean and your phone call?”

She smiles knowingly tapping her forehead.

Ryan and Gilden

The dog stands there and speaks, “All threats must be eliminated. Stand down and prepare to be atomized.”

The Battle by the Portal!

Mark unleashes a whirlwind of speed and smashes three out of the five standing STAR units fall in apart in pieces under the fury of his impact gloves and his extreme speed! Meanwhile Anika steels herself and maintains the portal amidst the coming whirlwind of violence and fury.

Mark gets a 16 attack on the minions by taking 10, two of the STAR units rolls a 26 and 28 respectively and save the rest are out of the fight! Anika goes on the defensive.

Kiyana seeing that there are plenty of people already capable of fighting, she opts to go on the defensive. She returns her normal physical form and forms a watery force field around the portal, Anika, and herself.

Kiyana makes an Area Force field around the portal area, Impervious Toughness of 10.

Charlotte’s distinct mass descends on another STAR and it collapses as the mass of spiders chew into the vital circuitry underneath. Ten more STAR units appear and begin blasting indiscriminately at the teen elites! Luckily their aim is untrue and the blasts barely miss the young elites as they evade harm, even Anika! Many of the blasts ricocheting off the watery force field surrounding the portal!

They roll a 12 to attack and miss, and are generally ineffective as minions… Now Karen’s turn!

 

[Aenion]

Karen gasps at the suddeness with which the STAR unit went limp. Reminded of what would happen if she'd do the same to a Baseline she drops the broken android, They are just robots. You're not killing them, you're just breaking them... She leaps up to land in the middle of the largest cluster of STARs, her razorsharp hand severing the nearest androids head.

Full concealment if they were less than 30ft away, else no concealment.
Attack at +6 to hit, +12 lethal damage, +5 lethal damage (aura)

Karen leaps into the fray but the STAR evades the attack the last moment, escaping the worst of the blow with a few locks of blue hair flying in the air. No emotion in the eyes as they begin to converge on the highly dense elite!

Karen hits but the STAR rolls a 28 and 26 Toughness save respectively, escaping harm! Mark’s turn in Round 2!

"And you are not pursuing your own agenda?" Cassie says calmly, though the comments do hit close to home. "Ryan is like pretty much anyone else. He wants to live. I'm still waiting to see how you can defy elementry physics. I'm a paradox. If I undo the circumstnaces that create my future. how can I continue to exist?"

Red Witch smiles, languidly crossing her legs seductively, “I will not lie and say that my concern is selfless. But you do not have to be undone, you existence is your choice, your fate is your own. You let the powers that be dictate your path and you will become nothing more then an instrument of change a tool for those in power to do with as they please.”

“But I ask you this, Cassandra, what is that you want? What meaning do you wish your life to have, what legacy will you leave behind to say that you lived?” Red Witch questions.

Cassie looks at the witch for a long time. Minutes pass before she speaks.

"I won't lie, the temptation to live is strong one. However your aims and mine are always going to be counter to one another. You seek to rule, control and crush all others; whereas I wish for equality and understanding. I am a machine of war, but I see little to come from the war I was made for. There has to be a better way." She shrugs as she paces a bit. "I confess that th world I am in confuses me from time to time, but I would pass hapily knowing something better is coming from my actions. As for other things... I would like to know how I got here and why I recall nothing before the moment I awoke in that Atlanta Alleyway."

“Naïve… do you know who invented war? Man. Evil is also a creation of man, and conflict is the natural state of mankind. Man is capable of great beauty, and incredible carnage. Nothing you can do will bring peace, not without the total annihilation of mankind, or mankind’s ability to choose for themselves. Life feeds on life, this is necessary. Mankind depends on this process for growth,” Red Witch replies.

“To survive man must fight, and kill. This is the most basic instinct of any creature, to survive. Survival is conflict. Conflict gives man focus, strength, and motivation. It gives man the will to destroy the source of the conflict, usually ending in blood at some point. No, you cannot waylay instinct… it cannot be suppressed. You are looking at the future through a lens that will only end in pain for yourself. You must accept a larger view of things,” she continues.

“You must accept that if you are to survive it must be for yourself.”

Legion laughs, “Why? For love of course, only when you see how far I will go will you see how pointless it is to try and deny your fate that we were meant to be together, for you I will form an empire… of one mind, one singular purpose… and you can be my queen. Am I insane, perhaps… but who can stop me? I am a man without a face… I am the force behind the masses… I am Legion and all will bow and tremble at my majesty!” she cackles loudly, waving her hands defiantly.

"You are...completely insane, I think you should get counseling or something...well you'd just try and mind control the therapist I guess so it wouldn't really work...If you really love me...you wouldn't be killing everyone...everyone that I care about. I love Mommy and daddy and you doing that makes me wanna hate you." Kelly says, her eyes closed against the brightness from her lightning cloud as it continues to crackle and eat away at the room and everything in it.

"Why can't you just give my mommy back? It'd make me belive you more, and trust you. You already have tons of other bodies you said... let me have her...please?" Kelly begs, trying to convince him to leave her mom alone. (Diplomacy 27)

 

[Agamon]

Anika will continue to concentrate on maintaining the portal.

"And to believe you after what was just said would make me even more Naive and perhaps even foolish. You answer my question with Rhetoric. I asked how you could.. save me, then you asked me what I sought in life." She pauses and looks to the Witch. "I know conflict is part of man's makeup, but we evolve and that means we find other ways beyond basic violance to resolve conflict. I've read enough in history to know that we have occasionally healed our differences without war."
