Generation Legacy Issue #7 "Innocence Lost" - Part 1

[Agamon]

Meanwhile Anika’s cell phone buzzes softly, with a text message forwarded from her dorm terminal, there is no subject but the message says it is from someone named Sami.

Anika looks at the phone and her eyes light up when she sees who the message is from. She's quick to open up the message to read it.

"I've only heard stories about the place," Ryan says, glancing out a window. "Does anyone know if Sarah has a cell phone number or anything? I'd like to try and talk to her, and I didn't get much of a chance with the fifteen minutes we had." And Isabelle too, but that might be a little more private. At least, if we can pull it off, I'd like for it to be a surprise for Mr. McCallister.

“Typically, gene therapy is administered in prenatal care, though it is possible to apply later in life, ma’am,” Pandora replies gesturing to an on-screen diagram, “You are correct as well, I cannot divulge some data, it is proprietary or still in development. This gene therapy process has very minimal effects on the child, or their successive generation, it simply eliminates birth defects, or disorders the child may develop. Although the technology exists to tamper with what kind of child you could have, it has not been cleared for use at this time. I do not understand the term meta-human please clarify?”

Cassie has only been at the school I think just over a month, so I am not sure if she was doing this before she arrived. Anyways the company is young but seems to have a decent business background, a good model for growth, and plenty of backing.

"An Elite, someone possessing parahuman levels in say strength, agility, metabolic rate, or other such things." Cassie adds as she pulls up her other searchs.

OOC: I kinda figured it would be minimanal at best.. she's no Eyes Only yet.

Karen

Karen lashes forward and tries to grab Kal, but shrugs off the attack. He steps back using her movements to try and grapple her in return! Although his strength is great, Karen I able to resist the pain, but is no engaged in a grapple with Kal!

Karen rolls a 22 to strike and hits. But her Grapple check is a 16 and Kal gets a 30. Kal then rolls 19 to strike, and engages grapple with a 20, while Karen rolls a 17, and I now grappled. She rolls an 18 for hr damage save and takes no damage. Just for future reference you have to post under what conditions you will use a HP, for rerolling, I will not assume anything…

Karen grunts, or is it a pur, when can Kal wraps his arms tight around her in a, for most people, crushing embrace. She is still suprised by his immense strength, but holds on to him and tries to pin him in return, sending them both rolling across the floor.

I was not planning to spend hero points on this friendly match, unless Karen got hurt, but if you insist I'll spend a hero point if this grapple check ends up lower than 25

Kelly just nods and nuzzles her face against his chest. "I...I don't really know very much about love," she says, blushing, "I think I love you, I mean, I'm pretty sure I do, I... it scares me too Tommy, caring so much, but I already said I trust you with my life." she murmurs.

"I don't care how much you tell me now, I trust you, you'll tell me when I'm ready, we both can get to know each other more, so long as we help protect each other from super assassins, we have all the time in the world to learn about each other." she says, sounding completely genuine in her belief.

Tommy replies, “Well let’s just relax for now, we had a rough day, all things considered. I don’t really want to think about anything right now. We can worry about this later, we care about each other, and that is enough for me.”

He holds he in silence, before she feels his head on her god shoulder, and the soft movements of his sleeping, obviously he was more worn out then he was letting on. But he is still holding her.

Karen

LOL I am not insisting, it was just a general statement for others to consider most likely I need to do the benchmarks system Agamon has for Daedelus, so don’t worry about HP, since this is a friendly match.

Karen is able to break free of the grip, and tries to engage her own grapple, but Kal quickly evades. He relaxes his stance, “Alright, yeah your good, not bad, I am not sure what you need me to teach you, I mean your about as strong as I am, what else can you do with your elite powers?”

Karen gets a 26 to break the Grapple, and Kal gets a 16. She wins and rolls a 17 to strike, but Kal is able to evade the strike. Unless Karen continues this ends the combat for now.

The Aerodyne

“Sarah?” Yoshi replies his eyes closed, “sure I know what it is, let me guess you pissed her off too, you’re really good at that Ryan, is that like your other elite power?”

Meanwhile Anika checks her message…

*Translated from Swedish*

Hi Ani! Sorry it has been so long, I have not been well, my parents took me to Stockholm, and I was diagnosed with cancer of the liver, I did not want you to worry, I mean well I am sorry that I did not tell you. But I am better now, the UN facility there did some tests, and an elite doctor cured me! My recovery time was quite short, and when I got home I saw that you were now a big star like your dad! You are on a team, called Legacy right, oh here it is, sorry surfing the web to find it.

My parents did not want me to go out and about till they were sure I was well, they can be so overbearing, my mother says hi, by the way. She wants you to come over one day, and have dinner with us, like we used to, I guess many people here miss you. I know I do, it’s just not the same around here. Well I am not sure if you will get this message, but if you do, good luck Ani! You should visit sometime, or maybe I can visit you, it would be nice.

PS: How is Africa?

Cassie

Pandora listens, “I do not believe that we have that capability ma’am. It is impossible to engineer an elite, there physiology is not well understood, and that would go more under the label of science fiction. Do you have any other questions?”

"Not for the actual how toos and wherefors, no. I am curious to what sort of non invitro (ie.. folks who are already born right? I'm very wiggy today) treatments have your company done already. Not to mention who programmed/conceived of you. You have a very lifelike manner about you."

OOC: Going from searching to curiousity now. You did say she (pandora) had a simular appearece to Cassie right?

Karen's crystalline body relaxes, showing no signs of exertion and she smiles, "I thought there was more to fighting than just being very strong," she shrugs, "I guess it's a good start."

"What other things I can do? I can jump very far now and I can become razor-sharp, if I want too, but I try not to do that to much 'cause it ruins my clothes, I already need new gymclothes after yesterday."

Tommy replies, “Well let’s just relax for now, we had a rough day, all things considered. I don’t really want to think about anything right now. We can worry about this later, we care about each other, and that is enough for me.”

He holds he in silence, before she feels his head on her god shoulder, and the soft movements of his sleeping, obviously he was more worn out then he was letting on. But he is still holding her.

Kelly gives herself a small smile at how tired Tommy is and that he is still holding her. She shifts around to get more comfortable, trying to not wake Tommy up as she moves about. With a sigh of contentment, the popstar allows the residual pain to claim her consciousness, slipping into sleep still entwined with the billionaire elite. The last thing she hears before she drifts off to sleep is the beating of Tommy's heart.

 

[Hammerhead]

It's MY Elite power to piss people off? I'm not the one who ruthlessly mocks people in front of crowds while that said person is trying to save their worthless lives! And I don't demean the only person on Earth who might actually like me! Ryan yearns to scream these words, but he bottles up his anger, saving it for Strength. Still, he mentally reminds himself that Yoshi will pay.

"Something like that," Ryan says cooly. He is right though, I do have a talent. I guess sometimes it's just easier. "Of course, when someone suggests the world would be a better place with you dead, it tends to put a damper on your mood. Especially when they mean it."

Ryan glances over to the next seat, where Anika reads her message, but says nothing.

James settles in for a long flight but stays quit... just enjoying the flight and the closeness of Kiyana...
