Cassie

Chaos shrugs, “I never claimed to be a help Cassie, you have to understand I don’t appears because I am hear to assist you in some cosmic way. Among the eternals I am one that is closely aligned with sentient creatures, they cause so much chaos that I am just attracted to their presence. And this bunch around here are delightfully chaotic, even this new confusion on your origins adds another layer to the madness.”

Chaos grins, “I enjoy this little game at times. What do you want from us Cassie, answers?”

"So esentially you're a big eternal annoyance and nothing more?" Cassie says as she glances to Chance. "Quess you were right about the fact the the eternals can't be trusted to help or even have a clue."

"So esentially you're a big eternal annoyance and nothing more?" Cassie says as she glances to Chance. "Quess you were right about the fact the the eternals can't be trusted to help or even have a clue."

“Exactly,” Chaos replies, “You have to figure these things out for yourself. You see sentient creatures have a longing to understand why they exist, and seek meaning in a life that is on a cosmic scale actually meaningless. From the moment I was born I knew why I existed, I knew what I was meant to do, and I have no desire to understand what I am.”

“You have come to the crux of my visit, sentient beings cannot rely on eternals for any assistance or help. That is the ultimate price for our power, we cannot directly interfere on this plane of existence; that you already know. That is the will of the Creator. We exist to maintain the basic building blocks of the multiverse, which is our role. We are not your gods, we do not answer prayers and if we decide to assist you in a matter you had best believe that we have a purpose in mind,” Chaos adds.

“So please don’t apply your human emotions or motivations on beings like us, it is a concept that we understand but are incapable of exercising… though if what you told me of Hope and Overseer is correct then perhaps not out of the realm possibility,” Chaos finishes with a smirk.

"I just want to know if I am some sort of reincation of Hope." Cassie says grumpily. "I get told that I"m going to be pivotal in the fight with him in less than a year, and besides for my ungodly resilience I have litle to offer the fight."

Kelly sighs at her mother's question and slumps just a bit. She was a big plan kind of girl, and sweating the details was generally beyond her. "My plan is to gather people together that can fight against Overseer when he finally shows up. I don't think the UNJE on their own are gonna be able to do it, the same for The Movement, or Pantheon. They can't seem to play nice with each other either. Maybe I can get people together that everyone can deal with, sort of like a liason between everyone, maybe not but I do want to try. I'm pretty good at making people see reason, not lately, but I am pretty good at it over all."

"I also want to get Legion away from Grandma and Grandpa. I don't want him having anything to do with the Mitchell Foundation either, not after...everything."

"Even without any help I still try to get ready for Overseer. My powers just keep increasing so rapidly, it seems like everytime I go into a fight I figure out a new way to use my powers, or some new trick... maybe it'll be enough...with some luck." the girl says giving her mom an impish smile.

Chaos shrugs, “Okay? So your big plan relies on you knowing if you are or are not the reincarnation of Hope? What then? What does that help you do Cassie? Whatever power you will need to fight Overseer you will find within yourself. If not then you lose, or so you believe. The stakes are high Cassie, and until Overseer ascends to the status of an eternal we can do nothing directly to him. Quite the quandary?”

“You are important Cassie. Kelly is important. Ryan is important. Jun Min is important. Even Chance is important. I could list any number of names that are important. That importance is based on the struggle to defend your world, and perhaps all worlds from the dominance of stagnant and violent order. If Overseer succeeds he will plunge all worlds into his version of what he believes the Multiverse should be. I don’t bring you answers because I don’t know the answers, but obviously you have the pieces to your own puzzle, and yet the answers that you so dearly seek, elude you. I thought you were smarter then that,” Chaos adds with a sly grin.

“Or perhaps maybe I am just deducing the answer through my own warped version of logic. Yes, I think I do know… oh you tricky devil you. How could you leave me out of this cosmic punch line,” Chaos laughs, “right in front of me the whole time… sorry Cassie, Jun Min; I have to go. I have to pay a friend a visit.”

Chaos winks at Jun Min and then disappears.

Jun Min blinks, “Wow… he scares me.”

Kelly

“Kelly I have never doubted your ability to make people feel better and even get along, but the world is far more complex then just making people get along. Are you ready to go down this path, because if you are, then you are opening yourself to an ugly side of the world; politics, compromise, and secrets. And we will get the Mitchell Foundation back, I have a plan,” her mother replies.

"I'll do what I have to do to save everyone mom, I'm not going to let Overseer kill everyone or turn all of them into slaves just because he wants everything neat and tidy. I'm a good guy, I know that, and I have faith that in the end the good guys always win, even if not all of the good guys get to be there to see it."

"Tommy is making me some more of those anti-Legion gernades, he said they'd be ready by tomoorrow morning. Hopefully they can help with your plan."

Ryan rolls a 13 after spending an HP, he is now at 23, adding ten to the roll. I doubt Mark will want to use an HP but I will offer him the chance to say so.

Mark's just fine with his roll.

 

[KaintheSeeker]

"He annoys me." Cassies says as she sits up and looks to Chance. "Is it wrong to want to know what you have to do in the end?" She asks Jun Min. "I've got doubts okay? I've seen what happens if I fail, and I don't want that. I'm willing to bet Chance doesn't either."

She starts to pace and looks over at Chance. "I don't know about you, but I could use a meal and maybe a glass of wine." She says recalling her foster father's occasional treat of wine with a meal.

Mark's just fine with his roll.

Mark misses with a 21 due to the Cover bonus that Gilden provides for Genocide! But both Kiyana and Ryan strike true!

Mark dashes across the water his impact fist narrowly missing Genocide as both Ryan and Kiyana deliver crushing blows in tandem. Her watery form crashing into Genocide as Ryan strikes from behind! Genocide loosens his grip on Gilden as the tandem blows knock him momentarily senseless!

Genocide rolls an 18 Toughness save, he is Stunned and Bruised!

Tina grins, “Time to finish this crap right here, and right now!” She runs and uses her prodigious strength to leap across the pool and put a flying knee right into Genocide! But the blow does not seem to affect the now reptilian looking humanoid. It towards over the teens at nearly eight feet in height its hands ending in wicked talons and its yellow eyes glassy for the moment. The red-black scales warm to the touch!

Tina rolls a 23 attack using Power Attack +5/-5 and All-Out-Attack +5/-5; but Genocide rolls a 33 Toughness save and is fine!

Gilden turns as the grip releases and releases arcane energy from his eyes! The blast catches the giant lizard right in the face! Genocide growls as he stumbles back from the onslaught, “TREACHERY!”

Gilden rolls a 14 to attack, meanwhile Genocide rolls a 21, making him Bruised. This is now Anika’s turn.

Kelly

“Good,” there is an edge to her mother’s voice she has not heard before, “we will not discuss this anymore for now, not here.”

Bishop adds, Kelly not even sure when he entered the room, “And I am with you on this one.”

Cassie

Chance nods, “I am with you sister, we need to figure this out together. We NEED to know what we are and what we are capable of… and there is someone out there that knows.”

Chance stands and shouts, “You know what Chaos, or any eternal that is listening, I don’t give a damn what you want anymore! We are deciding our future for ourselves from now on! WE WILL KNOW WHAT WE ARE YOU BASELESS COWARDS!”

Chance sighs, “I feel better.”

Jun Min adds, “I hope so.”
