Tanaka was a good man.  He will be missed by all.  That this boy is not truly to blame will not ease the suffering of Tanaka’s wife.”  Reaching down, he grabbed the boy by the arm and hauled him to his feet.  “Domo arigato gozaimasu, Black Star.  There will be some who will want to exact revenge for Tanaka’s death, and we shall have to protect him from them.  At least until the courts decide what to do with him.”  Officer Himitsu did not look pleased at the thought of protecting the boy.-James DunbarNew York, New YorkAugust 2, 2003The gunman turns to look at James as he races forward, a cold smile upon his face.  “The name is Deadshot, kid.”  He raised both of his guns and fired three times.  The first two shots went wide, missing James completely.  The third shot, however, hit James in the shoulder.  A wave of white-hot pain tore through James, but it does not cause him to pause.  He closes the distance between himself and the gunman, but his kick meets nothing but air.(OOC: James is injured; -1 to all damage saves)-Watching Cloud RiceMadison, WisconsinAug. 3, 2003The raven nods its head slightly.  “Good child, to follow the advice of your grandfather.  He was a wise man… despite his mistakes.  Yet why is it you go alone, child?  This land has many dangerous spirits.  Powerful spirits.  Do you not fear them?”Marcus Stevens & Jonn BirkeyPittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAugust 2, 2003Proton surged forward, both of his punches landing with a resounding metallic CLANG.  The first blow seemed to surprise the armored guy; the second one knocked him back a step.  Though the armored guy had previously been aiming his laser cannon at Marcus, that aim was lost when Marcus attacked; the cannon went off, blowing a hole into the wall.“Why not?  I have not yet had the opportunity to test the gauntlets’ attack mechanisms,” Shannon replied thoughtfully.  She put the second gauntlet on, before stepping out into the hallway.The mass of rock and dirt hit the green haired kid squarely in the chest.  With a grunt, he was knocked onto his back.“Oh man,” Tank muttered, getting to his feet.  He was holding his head as if he had a headache.  Briefly, Rumble noticed an unusual dark aura around Tank’s eyes, made even more disturbing by the fact that the goth kid was now nowhere to be seen.  A moment later, Tank rushed forward, taking a swing at Rumble.  Though he missed, Rumble could feel the rush of air left in the wake of Tank’s fist; if he had landed the punch, it more than likely would have left quite a mark.</blockquote>
