Karen
She shifts her shape to look like Kal, “Not really, when you can be anyone at any time, it sort of becomes pointless to try and find someone, when often times you don’t even know what you want in the first place,” she shifts back to her normal form, “besides I get bored with boys, and then the girls, and the cycle repeats… I rather enjoy just being by myself, and just have my clique, even if they don’t get it.”
Cassie
Dr. Whitman nods, “Well I wish you nothing but the best,” as they both enter his office.
Jun Min stands, “Well it looks like you two had a pleasant conversation, and I hope it was fruitful. Cassie are you ready to go?”
Dr. Whitman glances to Cassie, “I think it was, she is a wonderful young woman, Miss Kim.”
Kelly
“It’s understandable Kelly, your mind lacks the capabilities to comprehend what I am telling you. Our mother, is not an elite but she has great power, she created us fourteen years ago in an attempt to understand her fate, and in turn understand the path she believes she must take. I do not know why, but she abandoned us early on, and disappeared when we were young. But we knew she was out there, we are connected to her, and she in turn connected to us,” Erika replies.
“You are an elite, we are not, we are much more pure, and much more potent then your disease ridden personage can ever be. It is no fault of your own that you are imperfect. You are the end result of a callous attempt at playing god, all to serve an end of winning a war that is only beginning to take shape,” the oracle preaches.
Tommy nods, “Erika you may want to choose your words more carefully, unlike myself, Kelly is much more sensitive and fragile.”
“I see. Well then, let me be more… tact. The virus inside of you was formed by a conscious and perhaps insane mind. A min that is driven towards the goal of success by any means needed, a mind that is inundated with all the knowledge of what is to come, and none of the foresight of morality or restraint. A mistake made manifest, our mother is all these things and more. You may have heard of her…”
Tommy frowns, but says nothing.
“Cardinal is our mother, as much as my brother would like to deny it, I know it to be true, just as he does,” Erika replies.
“If that is the case does that make Ryan our uncle?” Tommy jests.
Erika nods slowly, causing Tommy to frown once more.
Bangkok
Mark races through the smoke trying to pick his ay clear through the mist and not trip in the process. But he does not find anything, or feel anything that seems humanoid. But at least the mist starting to fade and he can see two figures engaged in combat upstairs, one an ebon female the other a smoking female form… Kiyana.
Kiyana gathers all her strength and power and tries to extend her control of water to the blood in Back Heaven’s body, forcing a new and violent power to the fore as she pushes herself farther then she has ever gone! But her exhaustion plays right into Black Heaven’s hands as he catches her punch and turns it aside.
“Your determination is only matched by your ignorance and futility of your actions,” the elite speaks, as Kiyana lingers on the verge of collapse.
Kiyana uses Extra Effort to generate a Drain Constitution effect but misses with a 19, she uses a Hero Point and rolls a 13. She fails to connect, next round she will collapse.
Ryan moves down boosting his power and slams a foot into Strength, he stumbles back leaving a bruise along his face, but he seems undeterred by the attack grinning, “I am going to smash you good little man!”
Ryan rolls a 24 to strike, and Strength rolls a 15 for his damage save. He takes one Lethal Injury but is not stunned.
Anika is able to fly up and over to safety, she gets to her perch and from her vantage point can see Mistress working her way through the crowd, it seems like no one there seems to notice the Caucasian female just walking right by them in pseudo dominatrix gear.
Anika has True Sight, she sees Mistress for what she is. She is about 70 feet from the group, and about 100 feet from Anika.
James pops in right inside the club standing right next to Mark with his back to the scuffle going on upstairs. He is disoriented by the trip though and is unable to act at the moment.
James pops in now, he will be able to act next round.
Star tries to aid Ryan in his attack against Strength as best as she can!
Star Aids Another and rolls a 19, he has a +2 to his Defense until her turn next round.
Strength reaches and grabs Ryan with his massive hands, and clenches his massive hands around Ryan in a forceful vise, grappling the elite with one hand! Strength just sneers, and mutters a gleeful quote in Chinese as he squeezes with all his might!
Strength makes an attack roll against Ryan, he rolls a 15, and uses a Villain Point, rolling a 19, and his total roll is 22. He then initiates a grapple with his one hand, and rolls a 32, Ryan rolls only a 21. Ryan is Grappled. Ryan rolls an 8 Damage Save, he uses an HP assumed of course and rolls a 19. He takes no Damage this turn. Ryan’s shield does not hurt Strength in the slightest and he heals back the 1 lethal damage that he sustained from Ryan.
Yoshi looks torn between helping Ryan and following Mark’s order, he turns and runs after Mark. He pauses next to Mark and speaks, “Strength has Ryan, what do we do!” The speedy elite says while spinning. He looks up to see Kiyana and Black Heaven engaged and throws n Air Ram right at the ebon elite! The blast hits Black Heaven but he seems no worse for the wear able to evade the worst effects of the attack!
Yoshi attacks Black Heaven he rolls a 23, and hits! But Black Heaven rolls a 25 Damage Save and takes no damage!
Black Heaven turns from Kiyana, who collapses in a heap, totally exhausted. He narrows his eyes, “You have come into our home and have disrupted the sacred feng shui that keeps the balance in this place. For that you must be punished,” he raises a hand launches an area blast of black electrical energy at Mark!
Black Heaven glares, as he floats back out of sight of the stairs to the right.
Black Heaven rolls a 15 and misses. Mark rolls a 23 Reflex Save, and then a 3 Damage Save. I assumed he wanted to spend a Hero Point and rolls an 18 and he takes 1 lethal injury. Yoshi rolls a 26 reflex save and then follows with an 18 Damage save he takes one lethal injury as well. James rolls a 26 reflex save and then follows with a 24 damage save, he is fine! He float back 30 feet into a room on his right. He is about 45 feet from Mark and company. It is now Mark’s turn.
Initiative List: Yoshi 34, Black Heaven 20, Mark 19, Kiyana 19, Ryan 16, Anika 12, Mistress 9, James 8, Star 6, Strength 6
