MutantHigh Episode 4: Deadzone

Eris just licks her lips, laughing at how easy it all had been, She strikes out twice in quick succession at the man who had swung the axe at her.

OOC: +7(10S) +7(10S). I do not know if I get the +4 to hit bonus because he is fallen.

oog: no +4 to hit, the fall was just fluff.

Joeys snare still holds the girl while Jacksons goes around Slicer. He breaks right through the ectoplasm but it kept him busy.

The axe wielding warrior smiles confidently.
"Don't worry stranger you will fall soon enough."
An air blast hits him from behind, letting him tumble right into Eris punch. He allready looked pretty roughed up after her other attack and the airblast and now looses conciousness.
Slicer screams something incrompehensible in his rage after seeing how his companions have fared.
 

Domi almost grins at the reckless abandon Eris is showing, but at the same time she feels unsettled by it. Wow, she really lives for this. She quickly returns her attention to the fight and spins around to launch another blast at Slicer.

ooc: Airy blast on Slicer, +7(+8S), defense 19 against all.
 

Joey glances around, "I have the girl tangled up..." he shouts loudly, "No one else has to get hurt... but if they do, we can start this girl here..." he gestures to the woman ensared and forms a ring of water around her throat... "I wouldn't want to have to drown her..." he hisses...
 

Eris doesn't even bother to lookup from her downed opponent before she launches herself upwards in a flip designed to bring her down next to Slicer, relying solely on her incredible sense of smell to steer her right. As she lands, she comes into a forward roll bleeding off the impact, she exists the roll with a fist moving towards slicers chest.

OOC:leap, Strike +9(10S)

Katie finally got out of Dr Garcia's lab and found time for lunch. Then the Doc called for her help she did not know how her skills could help with the research about the fish people. That was before she saw the computers calculating the exact changes in the DNA strings that could lead to their powers. There ever those machines come from, it is obvious that they are both far ahead of their time and can only be used to their full potential by someone with a supernatural understanding of them.

Since Michael has still locked himself in his room, the students quarters are surprisingly quiet. The TV has been running all day, since it was full with news of yesterdays fight and it sound like just another report on the incident is on air now.

"...events bring a new dimension to the terror mutants can cause."
The screen shows scrambled pictures to the reporter’s words. A giant cloud of smoke hangs over a devastated city. Most building have burned to the ground and there are craters the size of whole blocks. Rescue helicopters and emergency medical crews are visible while they search through the ruins.
"This is just unthinkable, then the Basques announced the destruction of Seville yesterday the police assumed either an emty boast or a series of bombings in the worst case."
The view goes back to the burning city.
"Reaver proved us all wrong. No one knew if the alliance between the Basques and the mutant terrorist group known as the Killer Angels would last after they freed their leader from prison two month ago."
The view changes again, this time showing a man with bluish white skin walking between the still intact buildings in Seville. He is surrounded by a corona of energy. It bursts from him like flames moments later and in one bright flash he blasts everything in a hundred yard radius to ashes. The shot ends as the camera who took it is destroyed.
"The Alpha has not shown up before and his escape was never confirmed but he announced his presence to the world by destroying the whole city in under thirty minutes. By the time military troops arrived to stop the madness they found nothing but the ruins you are seeing now. Basque terrorists have already taken the responsibility for the attack, demanding the retreat from all Spanish citizens and troops from what they see as their territory but no official statement has yet been given by Reaver or any other member of the Killer Angels."
There are a few pictures of camps filled with refuges.
"After the initial attack terrorists proadcasted a deadline of one hour for every man women and child to leave the city or they would be destroyed with it. Still, despite the evacuation, the deathtoll is estimated to reach the thousands.

Katie had stopped any pretense of typing, her fingers barely touching the computer as her mind began to explore the various electrical charges on a level few people if any could comprehend. The computer became a part of her subconscious as she pushed the equations along, estimating with a degree of accuracy even the computer itself struggled to keep up with.

While her subconscious worked out the mathematical estimates for the solving the DNA gaps, her eyes remained riveted to the screen, riveted at the man displayed on there.

Who was he? Even then her subconscious began to separate and her mind explored the pathways that linked all information in the world. Reaver. She searched for his name, for his history. Who was this frightening man? And why would he do something so horrible as that?

The computers reach out for any available information at a single thought from Katie and she is thrown into a pool of databits flowing in from all around the world:

-Reaver
-alpha
-age 51
-current residence unkown(likely possibities: New Alcatraz, Dead, on the run).
-...man that last episode of Freedom Force was lame, the scene was an obvious copy from that news report in the seventies then Reaver was shot by the primers and became an Alpha. Hell if they don't even bother to change the powers they could at least get it right, the guy didn't throw around antimatter, he just created small amounts and controlled the energy from the following reaction.
-warning, do not engage the fugitive. Deltaprime and the airforce must be alerted immediatly in case of a sighting.
-Dr Khomenko's homepage at the genetics faculty of the universitzy of Praag: One of the greatest mysteries of the alpha mutation is the fact that none of them age after their change. Even more surprisingly is the evidence that the few alphas who spent longer times in power dampening fields age normally but revert to their age at the time of their transformation within weaks once they are out of them.
-obviously kills their sense of style, just look at Superiors custume and that leather outfit of Reaver then they fought in 1975. At least one of them had to go to jail for it...
-...founded the Killer Angels in 1995 but was captured again later then he attempted to break into the Pentagon and steal files about Atlanta. No one has any idea what could be so valuable about them. Reaver has been known for not taking civillian hostages or attacking civillian targets and so the state did not demand the death sentence. This has caused a lot of outrage by the relatives of all the military and police members who lost their lives throuh either him or his followers.
-www.deltatimes.com
...even some mebers of the old delta squadron refused the registration act and those who did not go underground fast enough where imprisoned or shot on the run. Of course at those times killing a mutant held an additional risk and a few times MC-Section suddenly found itself facing a very angry alpha, like in the case of Sgt. McVenner who became the alpha Reaver and systematicly killed his pursuers. The sad irony is that those where mostly members of his old squad. I leave the decision about who betrayed whom in that case to the reader.

early afternoon

Amazangly Eris doesn't hit this time and Mistral's air blast goes wide too. Slicer jumps towards Joey in an attempt to help his teammate.
(end of combat, we can safely asume that the combined power of the team is more than enough to take him out thenever you feel like it)
Slices shouts at angry at Joey. He probably looks like it too but this a face just as his that isn't really easy to tell.
"You call for peace and then you attack? Honourless bastard, may the sun curse your name. You outsiders are all the same."
