Generation Legacy Issue #15

Cassie nods. "Of course not right away, survivors take the priority." She says as she looks around for a place to start.

 

[Tokiwong]

Gilden pauses for a moment tilting his head as if listening to something only he can hear. "My friends are leaving to go back to the institute and I must go with them. Do you want to come along?"

“Of course, despite being a pariah, I would enjoy a front row seat,” Chaos replies.

“Now Robbie is easily convinced he seems to be enamored by Anika, and I have to admit I share the same infatuation her fire and dedication it is no wonder that they want her as their link to this world. Oh and you are right not to trust me; because even those things that I have not done with my own hand I approve of if they further my goals. Chaos is as chaos does, change will come weather it be my hand or another’s,” Chaos finishes.

 

[Samnell]

Karen nods quietly not taking her eyes of Kal, "I ... I guess so... I just don't want him to wake up alone... I'd like Gilden to try another spell, it'd be better if Kal could come with us, especially if something serious has happened. I-I'll write him a note in case the spell doesn't work," she agrees reluctantly.

"Ok," Mark waited while Karen's slow, ponderous, sharp-edged body dragged a pen across paper. This is awful. I can't believe I was that slow. I think I might fall asleep.

 

[Mimic]

"Its ironic really, my magic is based on order, structure and discipline as I have been since as long as I can remember and yet I am a pawn in your cosmic game of chess." Gilden says to Chaos.

He pulls back from the boys mind, blinking once or twice as he stands. "What has happened?" He asks the others as he looks over at Gadget with concern.

 

[Agamon]

"Everything has gone down, phones, electricity, computers. Gadget thinks it's happening worldwide. Something big is going down, we need to figure out what," Anika tells Gilden.

"All aboard," she tells everyone, motioning towards the portal. "You can come, too, Robbie, we'll show you where we live."

 

[Tokiwong]

Assuming they go…

The portal opens, and the students step back through to their lovely institute. Or at least it was, but now it is just a ruin, there is smoke in the distance, where the skyline of Mudaba Adin was… now just smoke, fire, and despair. The main forms are torn down, destroyed… although the Yoshi statue still stands, covered in dust, and debris.

The teens can see Ryan’s glowing form, as he works and tends to the wounded. There is also Sami covered in dirt, debris, and blood. Jun Min has a bloody leg, but seems well, and Bishop looks ruffled but no worse for the wear. Cassie is there as well, and several students.

The city, the institute, and their lives have been shattered.

 

[Agamon]

Anika follows the last person through the portal and can't believe what she's seeing on the other side. She only stares wordlessly at the chaos before moving to help. That's when she sees Sami. "Oh, gods!" She rushes to him and asks, "Are you okay?" She embraces him in a hug and then notices the the landscape behind him. "What...what happened...?"

 

[Hammerhead]

"Cardinal happened. Welcome to Hell," Ryan says sourly, giving an ironic wave. "There might still be enemies around, not to mention the threat of radiation, so I'd put up your force fields if you got them." They're going to be in shock for quite a bit...and despite what the shiny sunshine happy squad thinks, there isn't any set of meaningless platitudes that will make everyone feel better.

Hell, I don't even want these guys around me. Not now. They weren't here when it happened. Ryan stood over the unconscious form of one of the students at the Institute. He was an idiot that Ryan tried to ignore, but his wounds were closed and he was going to make it. He brushed his hands together impatiently, staring at the now empty skyline.

"Paragon's in what's left of the city. I've pretty much done what I can here, so I'm headed over there, see who I can help. Cassie," he inquires, turning towards her with an outstretched hand. Jun Min said it the first day...use the buddy system. Don't go anywhere alone.

 

[Aenion]

Karen reluctantly stepped through the portal, she felt like she was leaving Kal behind again. She never liked teleportation and it seemed everytime she stepped through a portal she was leaving him behind. These thoughts were immediately erased from her mind when she stepped out the otherside of the portal.

"Oh god no... This can't be real, this can't be happening. Something must have gone wrong with the portal," Karen stares around in shock at the destruction around her, the Institute had become a second home to her and now it was gone. Ryan was right this is hell, "Are you guys alright? Wasn't Kelly with you guys? Where's she? Is she alright?"

 

[Tokiwong]

Anika follows the last person through the portal and can't believe what she's seeing on the other side. She only stares wordlessly at the chaos before moving to help. That's when she sees Sami. "Oh, gods!" She rushes to him and asks, "Are you okay?" She embraces him in a hug and then notices the the landscape behind him. "What...what happened...?"

Sami hugs her back, getting blood all over Anika. He nervously replies, “Hi… umm… hi.”

Jun Min speaks up, “Thank goodness for teleporting. Paragon is saying that the city was hit hard, no radiation but the loss of life is significant. It’s time for Legacy to get into action the UNJE is mobilizing as best as we can with limited communications. Pretty much relying on a network of telepaths at the moment-”

Jun Min pauses putting her hand over her mouth. The pause is lengthy, “Oh my god… Cairo… Berlin… were also attacked. This was worldwide; I am trying to make sense of it all. What in the hell is she thinking?”

Bishop adds, “She wants fear and control, she wants to force the decision of what side elites are on. She wants a war.”

Robbie looks around, “This place looks broken.”
