Generation Legacy Issue #13 "Genocide" - Part 1

[KentArnold]

"You big jock," Karen grins at him, "But yeah I'm not really into computers and stuff... I could do with a new pair of jeans. Besides even a geek like me likes to look good for her boyfriend," she pops another bit of sushi into Kal's mouth before turning attentively to Timothy, curious as to the reason behind his strange behaviour.

He pauses, and frowns, knowing full well this was going to come about eventually, but hoping to delay it as long as possible. He recalled what his therapists said, don't have pity parties, go to any party but where pity is.

He snorted, "Rough life ... yeah, you could say that."

He speared another bit of sushi and ate for a minute before continuing, "They had me on meds to help my ... mood swings, but ... my physiology makes me quickly grow immune to meds. That and being Elite ..." he said the word Elite like he doesnt care for it, "doesnt help matters much either. I've learned to be ... cautious. Makes it easier to avoid ..." he paused to take a sip of his soda, "injuries. I may heal quicker than most, but ... it still hurts."

He sighed, "I'm trying but ... ten years of ... training doesnt help matters. That and the fact I've only known my status as an Elite for less than two years doesnt help much either. Should have known something was up when I was younger. I mean, you don't walk out of a hospital in a matter of days after you have ..."

He rolled up his sleeve to show a nasty scar down his upper arm, "a compound fracture. And be able to use the arm normally within a matter of a week or so. That's just not normal. But ... I know what I am. No going back. I have to move forward. And not let anyone else go and put me in a situation where they have control of me."

His voice gets a bit harsh near the end. He definitely has issues about giving other people authority or power over him.

Cassie smiles as Kelly reappears. "We were just waiting to see what you thought of our choices." She says as she walks up to her friend and in a lower voice. "And to confirm you sent the car around for us to be taken to lunch." Kelly can see despite Cassie's cheerful demeanor, the iron core she showed just before the violence was unleashed.

"I didn't specifically send it, but this is a quality establishment, and what I do when I normally shop here. The reservations are probably at Viscounti's, one of the more upscale resturants. Its nothing to worry about, or out of the ordinary at any rate, I probably just should have told you. Places like this love to look after their good clients, its all part of what they do for their patrons." Kelly says with a shrug, not really concerned, she was used to such treatment.

"What would you say to wearing your new dresses to the resturant? They have a slightly higher dresscode then the institute. I'm probably not dressed up enough come to think of it." the girl said, doubting that the maitre`de would actually mention it, but it might ruffle his feathers.

"There was a black dress that I liked, I actually sent for it the other day... I was wondering if you might have one here? It was the one that got such strong reviews in the last show?" Kelly asked the woman.

Kal nods listening, “That sucks man. But hey you are an elite now… so life is only going to get better, I mean Karen made a crap load of money just for being on legacy for like what one week?”

Sami nods, “Yeah elites are great, they are famous and make so much money, they really are incredible… and I am not just saying that because my girlfriend can kick my butt with a thought. Oh man and she has a hot tempter too,” he smirks.

Kal shrugs, “Well if it is any consolation I think that given your abilities, you would be a tough customer to control.”

On the outside monitor for the café, the young elites see a commercial for the Official Legacy video game, Legacy: Price of Justice; with slick photo realistic CGI real time graphics and the like displaying all the characters even Karen’s likeness for the game. The commercial focuses on high action, with cinematic cuts ending with the VSC logo. It shows the Legacy members putting the hurt on elites that have a startling likeness to known Pantheon agents, including Bishop.

Sami looks at Karen, “Oh wow that is awesome!”

Tim’s phone receives a text message.

Kelly & Cassie

Chance shrugs, “Awesome lets go,” she gets changed into a slick red dress, made for showing off her body more so then form and function. The hostess smiles and provides Kelly the exact dress she wants, with no charge.

They have a vehicle for the girls, and the reservation is all set for them.

Tim’s phone receives a text message.

He raises an eyebrow, "Is it so great being Elite?"

He waves his hand, obviously it was a rhetorical question.

""I'm not as fast as many, and I'm sure there are many who are far stronger. If I ever find the time to take up an indepth study of martial arts, maybe I'll agree with you."

He frowned as he notices his phone has a text message, and wonders who it could be, not many people had his number. He read the message, wondering who it was and what they wanted.

 

[Tokiwong]

He raises an eyebrow, "Is it so great being Elite?"

"Well I am not an elite," Kal replies with a shrug, "and from what I can see, without elites this world would be doomed when the likes of Overseer and company come a calling."

""I'm not as fast as many, and I'm sure there are many who are far stronger. If I ever find the time to take up an indepth study of martial arts, maybe I'll agree with you."

"You seem to have a low opinion of yourself, why?" Kal adds.

He frowned as he notices his phone has a text message, and wonders who it could be, not many people had his number. He read the message, wondering who it was and what they wanted.

The message reads, "It has been a long time, Tim... you run off to Mudaba Adin... you don't call you don't write... is this how you treat family, little brother?"

 

[Shalimar]

"Thank you for being so very helpful Jen, you took very good care of my friends, some very good choices." Kelly compliments her, knowing she'd probably appreciate the compliment as much as the high 3 figure gratuity she normally tacked onto her her tab. Pay the best for the best.

"Shall we go ladies?" Kelly asked after changing into the black dress, and getting ready for lunch. The blonde girl led the way to the car, knowing that the attendant would have a few men load the wardrobes into the car. That did bring up a question though of how much she could actually carry through her weather stepping abilities. She assumed it was enough, but didn't actually know. "I guess I should see how much I can actually do with my weather stepping once we get back to school. I'm curious to find out."

 

[Agamon]

Anika watches as the others come through the portal. Becoming visisble, she says a quick prayer to Freya to protect her, as well as to Loki, to help confuse the enemy. Suddenly, a dozen heavily armed UN soldiers come through the doors of the building, spilling into the yard, the lead one shouting, "UN Task Force, everyone on the ground!"

OOC: Raise FF as a free action, and use Illusion (DC 15) to create the distraction.

 

[Aenion]

Karen listens empathically to Timothy, "That's really rough... Being an Elite isn't all bad, it's not all about competing and it's definitely not all about being the strongest in a fight. Someone told me once, your powers grow from who you are deep down. They are a gift, thanks to them you're no longer cloistered to your weelchair. You can do a ton of cool things with them, like flying or cheating with juggling," she jokes, "You're very smart and your powers are very versatile and not at all obvious, I'm sure you can figure out ways to use them for the good of all."

The crystalline youth gapes in shock at the monitor introducing the new Legacy game, it's clear it's not a pleasant surprise at all, "Oh my god, w-was that me? W-why am I in a v-videogame? I-I'm not on Legacy, I never gave p-permission to be used like ... like that. I d-don't want to be in any videogame," the ruby girl looks around her, suddenly feeling very selfconcious.

 

[Mimic]

Gilden gestures and brings his forcefield up as his invisibility fades, he quickly gestures again and sends an arcane blast directed at the "man" that Anika has verified as Genocide.

OOC: Raise FF as a free action, -Blast (Magic) +9 [extra: Penetrating; PF: Accurate if possible]
