RPG- Superhumans 2: Anarchy (Page 16 of 18)

((Not much time, just trying to get this out of the way))

Shaun sat down in a chair. He was bored, not enough to be tired but he didn't have much to do, so he decided to wander around Andromeda. He paused, Haze and Chromium were speaking around the corner, he was new here, he didn't want to interrupt, so he continued on. He paused again, they were talking about him. "Well I don't see the problem." Haze said.

"Well, its his mental profile I'm concerned about. He has sever post traumatic stress. I don't know how it could affect him. It could make him dangerous."

"He could do more help then he could hurt us. Hes ex-special forces. He would be useful."

"I still think he could be a problem."

"Maybe Vandal could help him with it."

"I doubt it."

Shaun closed his eyes, standing up. Someone was coming, he assumed it was M'lure, he decided to sit back down.

M'Lure came up to Shaun who was sitting in one a leather chair in what would be considered the living room of the large home. She sat down in the chair next to him.

"Can we talk some more Shaun?"

"What about? I told you everything I know about whats going on right now."

"Is everything centered on Andromeda? No I don't think so. Lets have it be about you right now."

"Why do you want to know? Is this because of Lightshow?" Shaun accused.

"Its more than just LIghtshow. I need to know that you can do what's needed. Sometimes whats needed is keeping it togther to achive something. And thats exactly what I'm trying to do. Achive something no other super has, and take what is rightfully ours. Is that possible if anyone isn't focused? Perhaps. But I would just as soon not risk that."

"I. Am. Not. Plagiarizing!"  Dusk emphasized each word with a well-placed blaster shot, incinerating more and more of Mr. Anazazi-droid's terrible suit, revealing more metal beneath.  Lovely.  An indestructible maniac.  And meanwhile Alastor was charging Jack, sword swinging madly.  Wasn't this just typical?

((Ok, I'm confused...
here we have:

...and then Si posted:

Did these scenes happen at Andromeda, or at M'lure's house? (which is NOT Andromeda) Please fix this if it is a mistake...Thanx))

((That's what i thought...sorry ...crazy me))

"I'm a little--agh! Occupied at the moment, Jack." Anasazi was busy dodging blasts from Dusk while trying to get a blow in. "Call him off, and I'll call off Alastor."

Harthorne was truly frustrated by the villains attempt to torture him.this was confusing to Hathorne, what did they have to gain from there foolish attempt.There was still the problem of how to get out of this godforsaken place.They could never get anything out of Harthorne, it wasn't that they didn't try hard but they could never do what the C.M.A
(collective mutant agency) would do they would strike Harthorne were he is weakest in his heart,basically his friends and family.Harthorne could have easily broken the chains hours ago but he was waiting for the right time.
  With all Harthornes might he tung his hand away so that the chain in between the cuffs would brake.The chain broke apart and Harthorne went for the door it opened unexpectedly, Harthorne walked down the bright hallway and went up the metallic stairs at the end of the door.When he got to the top of the stairs he saw Light show not bright like before at the top of the stair.Lightshow turned to he had a shirt and some tight jeans on Harthorne     with a Grimace said "you".Light show frightened said "How did you get free", Hartorne smiled then charged at Light show.

"Thank you." Mr. Anasazi said to Dusk who had ceased fire. "Fine, Alastor, cease and desist before I have to shut you down."

"What--? Come on man, why you gotta be such a killjoy?" Alastor was not thrilled by the thought of not fighting.

"Because you kill everytting else. Now stand down."

Alastor raised Bradburry and pointed it at Anasazi.

"....yeah, okay." Alastor dropped his blade.

"Now then..." Mr. Anasazi approached Jack and the two walked off to the side. "What do you want to talk about?"

"Funny you should ask all these questions, Jack. Well, first, I'm afraid you're making a slight misconseption about me. You see, I'm not completely robot. I may appear to be a terminator, but there actually is a little flesh and a little blood trickling through this body. And also, I'm here because I want to save the world from World domination."

"Who wants to dominate it this time?"

"Andromeda."

"Ex-squeeze me?" Jack cried out in surprise.

"It's happened countless times throughout history. Caesar, Robespierre, Louis XVI, it's happened to the best of them. Power, you see, corrupts, and absolute power, not super powers, but political power, in this case, corrupts absolutely. And that's whats happening to Andromeda. It's corrupting absolutely. Now, I'm not saying you guys are gonna nuke the White House or anything anytime soon, full-on corruption takes time. But in a few, months...years, maybe, this power, this authority that our government has handed Andromeda, it's gonna drive you guys batty. You'll belive the best way to save the world is to take it over, and rule it with an iron fist, no pun to your fearless leader intended."

"So, wait...you're here to stop us from going power-mad, by, what, frying french restaurant patrons?"

"No, that was purely Alastor's doing. he gets a kick out of that sort of thing. My plan is a bit more...broad in scope. Remember what happened to Lady Liberty?"

"I thought she bit the dust?"

"She was dust."

"So that's your game, eh? You're the guys blowing up monuments? What, izzat some kinda statement about tyranny?"

"Yes, actually. You're smarter than you appear, Jack. I'm impressed."

"Yeah, I'm a regular Renaissance Man."

"So, basically, we're blowing up monuments to get some blood flowing in the world. Heat everyone up. Instill some fighting spirit in the world. It's a sort of indirect call to arms."

"You want to start riots?"

"Global scale."

"That's not resistance to oppression!!" Jack exclaimed, realizing the ramifications of the plan. "That's..."

Mr. Anasazi finished his sentence. "...Anarchy."

Dusk blinked.  His helmet's audio receptors had caught the last little bit of the conversation between Anasazi and Jack.  And it hadn't sounded good.  Why institute chaos, when order was peace?  Because order isn't always good.  Sometimes, you just need to throw a little chaos into the mix to improve things.  Dusk didn't know where the voice had come from, but it made sense.

Burnout raced off after the fleeing figure, covering the distance in milliseconds, and passing him shortly afterwards.  He barred the fugitive's path with his arm.  "Ah, ah ah, now where are you going?"

"Away from here.  Get out of my way, before I am forced to kill you, Goodie-Two-Shoes."

"Woah.  Vile language, man."  Burnout was surprised.  This guy looked vaguely like Darkli- Dusk.  COuld he be Voidhunter's human form?

"This just isn't your day, is it, Terry."  He took a gamble.  And won.

"why you-"

Terry lunged at Burnout, only to clutch thin air, as Burnout zipped behind him, anhd knocked him to his knees.  A rapid kick to the face and elbow to the back of the skull sent Terry into LalaLand.  Dusk owed him for taking care of his brother....Burnout grinned at the thought.

M'Lure enjoyed the quick exchange she noticed downstairs between the captive and Flame and Fenrir. It definately confirmed what she wanted to happen with the good Doctor; that  he would eventually gain some control over the wolf Fenrir and use him to her advantage.

She noticed the figure cowering in the corner, saw Lightshow knocked out in the hallway, and the broken one way mirror. She quickly understood what had happened. She walked past Fenrir, gently touching his shoulder as she moved towards the man. She shoved the man down to the floor herself, and once he hit the ground placed her right foot on his throat.

" It may seem like I hide behind others," She began to hiss at the man, "But I am fully capeable of killing you myself. All you need is a reason for me not too."

Flame stepped back into the hallway. Hathorne was unconscious on the ground, M'lure was standing over him. "It seems you have knocked our guest out...." 

Lightshow stood up groggily, rubbing his head "Captain obvious over here..." he muttered. Flame made a quick hissing sound and the air around him heated quickly, then cooled. Lightshow apparently got the message and shut up.

Shaun waled around the corner and noted the shattered window and the unconscious guy on the floor. "Looks like I missed the party." he muttered to himself.
