MutantHigh Episode3: Speed limit

[KitanaVorr]

Katie took a long moment to answer, putting away her skateboard on the back of her bike. Enough time for the breeze to lessen her blush at his words. This was a habit that had got to stop or she should just resign herself to being permenantly a pink color.

"Not to blow your conclusion that I'm smart out of the water but, Joey, are you asking me out on a date?" One dark eyebrow quirked slightly. "If you are, you willing to break the rules? I'm your teacher, remember."

Slipping the helmet over head, she threw one long leg over the bike and kicked the stand. Finally as the engine revved, she smiled at Joey, believing him when he told her about him and Eris...she had no reason otherwise not too and she couldn't imagine him trying anything devious.

"Not to blow your conclusion that I'm smart out of the water but, Joey, are you asking me out on a date?" One dark eyebrow quirked slightly. "If you are, you willing to break the rules? I'm your teacher, remember."

Joey straddled his bike, "There are two things I do, I surf, and I don't follow the rules. Breaking the rules comes second nature," he gunned the engine, popped a wheelie, and raced down the road, he waits for Katie to catch up, and then follows her lead...

That was easy anough, friends with benefits, and a sweet innocent betty, life is good... Joey smiles beneath his helmet, as he weaves through traffic following Katie.

Katie was no stranger to speed. Combined with her love of performing tricks on skateboard or a snowboard (both preferably at said high speed) there hasn't been a speeding law she hadn't broken yet. Of course...she had never gotten a ticket either. Having the ability to affect radar guns paid off big time in that area.

Perfectly willing to take the lead if Joey wanted to give it, her bike sped past him and she took her favorite way back to Haven. That included less oft traveled roads that winded through every imaginable scenery the countryside offered. Past empty undiscovered beaches, so close to the rocky surf that the salt stung their nostrils and permeated their skin. Through grasslands, over windy roads with turns so sharp the back wheels of their bikes threatened to spin every time.

Her favorite part came quickly as they approached 'the bump'...the large hill in the road with such a sharp decline that Katie's only response was to gun the engine further. The bike shot up and for one sweet moment she was in the air, flying above and suspended in that perfect rush of adrenalin.
Her heart wanted to soar further and she could almost feel her body tingling as if it could suspend her in that moment forever...to those who watched it did look as if she had stayed there for longer that could be possible.

Soon though the wheels slammed back into the ground, jarring her from her pleasure. Katie slowed down enough to make sure Joey was ok behind her. If he was, she continued on to Haven, never letting up and never letting him come close enough to overtake her. With her newly remodeled, high experimental bike...that part wasn't tough. In fact, on the straight road to Haven, she kicked it into turbo and shot forward at a speed so incredible that she seemed to vanish out of sight.

Katie made it to Haven, parking her bike and letting it calm down a bit before shutting off the engine. Her next task was cleaning it up before putting it away as she waited for Joey to catch up.

(Initiative 1D20+13)
"Hey Patriot! Is that all you have big guy? Wasn't even close, your gonna have to actually connect or this is gonna be over too quickly." she calls out to the older man, taunting him, trying to make him angry enough to ruin his aim with the energy blasts (Taunt 1D20+12 to give him a -4 to his attack rolls).

Her competitive drive is in full effect, even if it is just an exercise spurring her body onto greater efforts, even as she smirks at Patriot she is already in motion running towards the exit faster then most humans are capable, weaving in and out. (Base speed 40 feet, using extra effort to go 80ft, if she doesn't make it for some reason spend a hero-point to ignore the Fatigue)

(Defense 29, 1 half action to Taunt, 1 half action to run to the exit using extra effort to double her base speed)

OOC: Below is Eris's uniform, hers just doesn't have the X's being as she isn't in Gen-X

Chamber

[OOC: init: 1d20 +4]



I'll cover the two of you, when i distract Patriot make a break for it. Chamber steps out into the clear and readies himself for Patriot's attack, when it comes he'll use his blast to deflect it. Hopefully while i do this the other two can make progress to the door. After Chamber fires the other two finally get a good look at the boiling mass of energy previously hidden under the leather warps.

Joey pulled up, grinning, as he stopped, "I have seen fast, and that was pretty damn fast, your more then just a pretty face. Looks like you tooled it up, cause I haven't seen anything come off the line with that kind of ludicrous speed. Nice," he got of the bike, "I like fast girls, and bikes."

Joey walked over towards her, and looked over the bike, for a sec, while looking he continued to speak, "So was that a yes, or are you going to leave me in suspense forever..."

Initiative 1d20 + 3.

Will delay my intitiative to react to the Patriot's actions, if I get initiative on him.

Patriot ignores Chamber as Eris presents as good a target as he does and her taunts are hard to ignore. Since he is wearing a mask it is hard to see if he is realy angry but the fact that he lifty both hands and gathers energy for a moment to shoot one very powerfull blast could be a hint. The fireball is a lot less well targeted than his usual attack but it gets close enough and explodes, lighting up the area five meters around it. Eris is caught and thrown half a dozen yards to the middle of the room and lands stunned. Jono still stands in the open while Mike can still act.

Chamber

Bullocks! After seeing his plan go down in flames, Chamber decides to change tactics. Pushing himself to his limits he lets loose on patriot, now that Michael's taken out his cover.It's not nice to hit gel's, old man. Why not try me! Then carefully moves toward Eris possition, taking cover as close to her as possible.

[OOC:On my next turn, Extra effort to boost my blast up +10, and spend a hero point to negate the fatigue.]

Katie laughed at Joey's comment about fast girls and bikes. "You bet I tooled it up a notch or five. So instead of standing there admiring my bike, let’s get the cleaned up and I’ll show you what I did. Call it the first draft on my dream machine.”

Reaching over, she turned the radio next to her louder, letting the sounds of Kaila Yu’s “Get Up On You” play through the garage. Then she tossed Joey a rag to help clean and oil their bikes.

“I use an accelerant to enhance the performance of the bike,” Katie explained with a rather mischievous look. “Pretty dangerous, I wouldn’t try anything too fast unless you know how to handle it.”

Her oily rag slowly ran along the sides of the metal, the slicking up the surface even as she grooved to the music, letting her hips move of their own accord even singing along with little shame as to her lack of formal vocal training. Her white sneakers and jeans speckled with mud and dirt, her t-shirt streaked with oil.

One hand pointed out to Joey the enhancements to the engine. “I use a direct-port system which gives me the best of both worlds. It injects the N2O the same time it injects the fuel so that the oxygen to fuel ratio goes up really high creating what’s known as the ‘lean condition’. This gives you a lot of power to your car but its pretty unsafe, especially if you don’t know what you’re doing. Even though N20 isn’t flammable, when it becomes mixed in like this, it can be highly explosive.”
