Generation Legacy Issue #14 "Genocide" - Part 2

[Hammerhead]

"Hmm," Ryan says, looking up and down at Tim. "Whining combined with an attempt at some kind of wisdom...I'm gonna say Cassie. Wait. The lack of fashion sense and clumsiness means it's Tim. Great. So far it's primarily Legacy members, plus a few others of interest." And you. I guess because you're always a victim.

Damn it, I don't believe in Anika's voodoo religion, but I'm not going to be sidelined. I'm the best damn person on Legacy, whether or I'm in my body or not. Time to lose, Anika.

"Freya, protect me," he says, sounding embarassed, as he gestures in a rough approximation of Anika's own. This is going to work.

"Freya, protect me," he says, sounding embarassed, as he gestures in a rough approximation of Anika's own. This is going to work.

Anika forms a shimmering field of energy around herself, once he does the awkward incantations and movements. It seems to unlock the ability to focus her energy, the field is stable for the moment.

Tina gets up, “Gilden? Oh my gosh you look so… so big? What happened? I know when I fell asleep I was me… oh man I hope I didn’t mess up my Instant Wardrobe Device… oh man… oh man,” she looks down at her larger assets, “And wow… I am jealous…”

Gilden/Kal bends down to get a closer look at Karen, without actually touching her. He never really understood what it meant to have super strength before. "I don't know what happened, I was me when I fell asleep as well. We have to find out how many of us are effected and I wouldn't be jealous I liked what you had before..." His head snaps up as he realises what he is saying, "and that was totally uncalled for." He says as he rubs his/Kal's brow, "forgive me, it has been a stressfull situation."

"Um, breakfast would be nice, but we're going to be getting a lot of company very soon," Anika tells Star, not at all paying attention to Ryan. "Oh, and I know this sounds really silly, but I'm not Mark, I'm Anika. And that's not Anika," she says, pointing behind her, "that's Ryan. We think Chaos did this to have some fun at our expense."

When she hears Ryan say the prayer, she turns rolling her eyes. "You can't just...what...?" She gapes as she watches the field shimmer about her form. "How did...you don't even know anything about my religion. And that was the least sincere prayer I've ever heard! How the hell did you do that? This isn't funny, Ryan!"

"Anika!" Ryan says defensively, spreading his arms. "It's genetic. That's all there is to it. Although, interestingly, I can feel the power there just by trying, but I need the words and gestures to unlock it. With some practice, I bet you could be using your powers like the rest of us."

Now you get to deal with faith just like every other religious person in the world. Deal with it.

"Anika!" Ryan says defensively, spreading his arms. "It's genetic. That's all there is to it. Although, interestingly, I can feel the power there just by trying, but I need the words and gestures to unlock it. With some practice, I bet you could be using your powers like the rest of us."

"Like the rest of you?" Anika replies, her eyes narrowing in anger. "So, what, you think I'm some sort of freak? Is that why you were attracted to me when I got here? Because only a weirdo like me could possibly want to hang around the purple glowing creep?"

"Ohh, wow, this really isn't good." the popstar comments as she lands next to the press. "So uh...who is this guy?" KElly asks, referring to either the man being held or the angel. "Guess it doesn't really matter if he's a fruitcake, but he seems to have some issues." When the angel-looking elite hoists the senator by the throat and starts throwing around his speech about her and cardinal Kelly's jaw drops for a second.

"I think I am going to have to stop you there. Cardinal isn't in charge of the world,and neither are elites, we are no better then anyone else. We don't get to decide things for everyone, that'd be wrong, everyone is suppoused to have an equal vote in things. There will be no serving going on...well I guess in resturants, but otherwise no servitude." Kelly tells the elite.

"Cardinal has to get over the serve or die thing, it just isn't going to happen. If people are going to fight off Overseer to not have to serve or die why wont they do the same to Cardinal?" Kelly asks "I may not be super smart or anything, but that seems like a major hole in your plan. You might want to go back and talk that over with your boss. In the meantime put down the nice man and let everyone go home. The UNJE are going to stop Overseer, and then they are going to stop Cardinal, I have every faith in them. They just have to work through a rough patch first." Kelly says, sounding entirely sincere. The wind kicks up a bit to clear away the smoke, and Kelly prepares herself to bring up her force field if he makes a threatening move.

Gilden/Kal bends down to get a closer look at Karen, without actually touching her. He never really understood what it meant to have super strength before. "I don't know what happened, I was me when I fell asleep as well. We have to find out how many of us are effected and I wouldn't be jealous I liked what you had before..." His head snaps up as he realises what he is saying, "and that was totally uncalled for." He says as he rubs his/Kal's brow, "forgive me, it has been a stressfull situation."

Mark/Karen's head snapped up, hitting the wall and leaving a dent in it. Why the hell would I be seeing other people acting like this on a trip? He breathed heavily and needlessly. If I really lost it completely, does it matter? We've been through weirder- Mark glanced down at his crystalline legs. Ok, not really but I beat myself up in the Black Room the first time we went in...

"Uh, ok...ok... I'm here now. If this is some sort of messed-up dream I'm going to ask Jun Min to go in with a jackhammer or something. You, uh, guys? You're, uh, Not you?" Mark asked weakly.

Get it together. Get it together. Get. It.

 

[Hammerhead]

"Wow, Anika, you're just like the rest of us. What a harsh condemnation," Ryan snaps, complimenting his retort with his signature gesture, the rolling of the eyes. Afterwards, he blinked a few times. Wow, Anika's not very good at that. She needs more exercise with those eye muscles.

"You're not a weirdo, and I'm not a creep. I'm sure someone could make a pretty good argument for being eccentric, given your religion, and me being a thug. Get over it. And believe me, there are millions of guys everywhere who think you're hot. So instead of pissing me off, why can't you just accept the fact that I'm not useless and I can use the same tricks you can?"

Cassie walks up and looks in the room. "Nice to see it's not the biology that makes you a horse's ass, Ryan." He says watching him snarl at the others.
