The Graffiti Game [PG-13 / ACCEPTING VIA PM / STARTED / SEXWHAT]

[Infinitus]

R.O.G. was in the woods not too far off from the city. He stood in the center of the heavenly light that shone down from the sky, as the abyssmal darkness of the surrounding woods surrounded him. This was R.O.G.'s favorite spot, since this almost completely represented him. A shade of gray in the world of black and white, a color that does not exist in the world of black and white, yet he is to bring gray to the world of black and white, where "colors both colorful and bland shall fall before my feet", as he said when he found this spot. Here he carefully planned every single manuever of B&W, and the resistance. This was a chess game, in which R.O.G. was attacking from not the black or white squares or pieces, but the gray squares and piecs that surround the chess board.

 

This was his identity, he thought. This, was his destiny. The winds blew ominously as he fished in his gray pack for his new disguise, where he would go un-infiltrated throughout the resistance known as The Taggers. Hopefully, he wouldn't get caught by a few of the new agents that have joined since he left a few years back. He muttered to himself "Now I plan on coming back, whether I be their ally, or their foe, they shall never know!" and he laughed maniacally, as the woods echoed his insanity.

Wielding her spray can in her left hand, she skated furiously towards the park. "Hmmm..." she though. "Maybe this is a trap." She decided it wasn't, and bent down to pick up her skateboard, and as quickly as she grabbed it, it was in her hand just as quick. The park wasn't very far away, so she decided to walk there. After a few minutes, she spotted the large, grey park. She started to run towards it, but then tripped.

[Skarlet]

Annie rode on towards the park, she rounded the last corner, the park was in sight, and so was Kelly. Annie went around the corner just in time to see Kelly trip. The girl quckly skated towards her fellow-freedom fighter. dismounted her board and offered Kelly a hand.

 

"Hey Kelly! You really oughta watch your footing a little better!"

Skating aimlessly across the dull pavement that The City's roads were made up of, Gabe looked up at the equally-dull sky and frowned slightly. It pained him to see a city with so much potential go into the wrong hands, especially such fascistic ones as Black and White. Their name was truly ironic, as they viewed the law in that exact manner. There was no room for error when they were around.

 

However, this was no time for philosophy. It was time for action. People wanted change, and that was what the Taggers would promise. The park with its large shade trees grew larger in his field of vision, and Gabe smiled once more. Kicking off a few more times, he glided to a steady halt underneath the largest one and waited, giving no sign that he was there to help with a revolution.

OOC: I'm tired as hell, this post will probably be a little lacking in length &/or quality, but I wanted to remind people I exist.

 

IC:

. Anastasia had been enjoying a cup of warm water in her room on the second floor of a dull building near the park, the wallpaper covered in water stains and ripped off in some places. She was looking out of the window for some inspiration. Didn't know, or care, what she was trying to be inspired for, maybe a poem, or a sketch? Either way, the world seemed as dull as ever, and she'd drawn dull from every angle possible with three dimensions, so inspiration attempts were null and void. After sitting for a while, her phone had beeped with that painfully happy techno ring-tone she'd managed to get onto it for texts.

. Flinging up the fire escape, her rollerskates gripped the drainpipe that had been knocked down and left against the wall at the back of the building where no-one noticed. G Street was around 15 minutes off, and she lived on 3rd. She had her skates, her tag, and she damn well had her freedom. If anyone wanted to challenge that, she'd be happy to teach them it the hard way.

[.:Mimi:.]

"Thanks. I really need to get going though. Bye!" Kelly shouted, and then skated forward toward the park. When she got there, someone was already there to welcome her. "Hi," said Kelly. "You must be Gabriel. You sent me the message, right?"

[fenrir]

Shortly, Jakob was grinding on the few rails available and snapping pictures left and right. He had mastered his own 'careless' skating technique, and used it to spray paint and take pictures at his leisure. He was planning on making an album featuring the world before and after this whole tagging business. To hopefully open the eyes of a few.

 

Soon enough, he was at the park, and was aimlessly gliding around.

[Skarlet]

Annie, not bothering with her board ran after Kelly, a few steps behind, she whipped her can out of her pocket as she went, the dull park needed a little color, it was lacking, as was the rest of the city, Annie was just the girl to fix that problem, Black and White just wasn't vibrant enough for her taste.

She stopped along-side Kelly, and looked at the boy she had just aknowledged.

[Infinitus]

R.O.G. had finally finished putting on his costume of a harmless teenager. He wore baggy jeans, pair of basketball shoes, a sleeveless T-Shirt, and had a skate board to go with. He managed to use a make-up kit to change his face completely, while still matching his skin tone. He even used a regular can of hair coloring to change his hair color to brown. He thought to himself Yet another impecable disguise, that will confuse and hypnotize! This would he his last rhyme for a while, however, as now he had to use a normal voice, and sound like a normal teenager. He decided to head to the local park, as a normal person simply walking back home. If this plan were to work, he'd be back in the taggers, observing their every move.

Gabe was somewhat surprised at the speed of the arrival of 2 of the senders. They were Kelly Earline and Annie Timayne, and from what he could vaguely remember, the two gave him the impression of peas in a pod. They looked somewhat the same, were the same age, and acted almost the same. It bothered him somewhat that there could be two identical people who weren't even related, but he brushed. Sizing the two up, he sighed slightly, and started to respond to the former's question.

 

"No, I didn't send it. I merely forwarded it," he responded with a playful smirk, tugging on his beanie instinctively. "However, I guess you could say that I sent it, so I might as well direct this operation. We'll wait here for another five minutes or so, and then head to our destination. Got it?" Secretly, Gabe was sweating inside. Designating himself as the leader wasn't good, because that meant the B&W would hold him the most culpable. It was a risk he was willing to take, though.

[fenrir]

Jakob had spotted the three, and sped to them directly. As he neared them, he slowed down and began circling them. "So..." Jakob generally tended to start off a rant, argument, or statement with the word 'so'. "What are we supposed to do then?" He held his camera in his hands, adjusting the lens and taking a few snap shots every once and a while.

[.:Mimi:.]

OOC: Ok.

 

"Well, it's nice to meet you, Gabe." Kelly reached out her hand to Gabe for a hand shake. "So, what is it that we will be doing exactly? Are we going to be tagging the 'City'? Also, what if we get caught by the B & W? Wont we get sent to jail or somethin?" Kelly asked. "Well, I guess you could always just tell me when the others get here. I know this question might be a bit sudden, but who was the sender of the message anyway?" Kelly wondered what the name of this City was. Ever since she first moved here, she had called it the 'City'. It was the only city she had ever known.

[Infinitus]

R.O.G., or James, as his new 54th alias would be, had decided to attempt to put his plan into action. He walked by the group of Taggers in the park, as a typically normal teenager, looking about 16 years of age, and he pretended like he was talking on the phone while walking in the park, when he heard them talking. He looked over them, and the grip on his cellphone dropped, as well as his jaw. He was in amazement at what he saw, or at least his character was, and he tried to act completely noticable. He walked over to the group of teenagers, and cupped his mouth with one hand, as trying to avoid being heard by someone. He said to them as he walked over "Psst, aren't you guys that resistance that I've been hearing rumors about?"

[Skarlet]

Annie turned, she heard the boy's question, if he wasn't a tagger, she didn't think he had much of a place knowing anything about what was going on.

"What's it matter to you?" she said in a far less friendly tone then was normal for her, while still not sounding harsh or angry by any stretch of the imagination. Realising that she had infact just answered the question afirmatively without meaning to, Annie blushed slightly, and turned away.

(((Increase your posts too, Fenny. :/)))

 

"To be completely honest," Gabe responded to the girl, skating idly in a circle, "we're..." The teen didn't know what would be the best word for it was, but he soon found it. "...Protecting. Yeah, that's it," he added. "We're protecting some demonstrators from the B&W, and it's almost a positive that we'd get arrested if they end up capturing us." His voice dropped to a whisper as he spoke that last part. "However I don't think that'd be a proble- Wait." Someone else besides Jakob and the girls had walked up to them, a skinny kid with brown hair.

 

"Hey, you." Giving a slightly pissed look, Gabe turned his attention to the newcomer. "Ya mind not advertising everything over the airwaves? It's a good way for you to get killed out here, you know." Gabe was obviously irritated, but there was a spark of hope in that someone else seemed to be able to help. "So," he added in as an afterthought, "you willing to help?"

[Infinitus]

James, or R.O.G. I should say, looked directly down, as if disheartened, saddened, and upset. He replied "Actually, I, kind of wanted to see......if there was any way........I could help.....but I see that, well, you guys really don't need, or want it. I'll guess I'll be one my way, then." He turned around, shamefully, mortified, and embarrassed at himself. How could I be so stupid?, he thought. R.O.G. tends to even play out his characters thoughts when he acts, as to add to the effect of truly believing he is that person. When he turned around, his spray paint can containing the amazing powers he know possessed, dropped out of his back pocket. He quickly turned around, faster than a speeding bullet, picked it up, as if trying to make sure they didn't see it.

 

OOC: I hate when I post too late. D:

((I was accepted over PM.))

 

Miles yawned as he stretched his tall body over the bench he sat on, one eye constantly aware of the strategically placed camera on a nearby post, constantly keeping an eye on him.

 

Miles had been to this park for years and years, ever since he was a small child. He had seen so much in this park; most of it the fault of B&W. So many people arrested, so many trivial infractions, so many times he'd seen one of the officers give him a glare that said, certainly, 'Make sure this is never you'. He'd grown to hate it. Hate the B&W, hate the officers that constantly came to abduct people he saw every day, every week, every year of his life.

 

He had studied the camera network too. From sheer observation, he knew where they could see you, and where they couldn't. Truthfully, there were much more places where they could see you than where you couldn't, but he had figured out the few blindspots they DID have. Unfortunately, he couldn't use them as often as he wanted to; simply staying in those unseeable spots too long and too often was liable to get you arrested simply on suspicions of doing something.

 

Still, the knowledge of the camera systems did come in useful occasionally, he thought, feeling the cool side of his can, Clockwork Owl, dig into his side from under his shirt.

[Skarlet]

Annie's usual smile returned to her face, the new-commer was leaving and that was good enough for her. she turned her attention back to Gabe.

"So what exactly is the plan Gabe? And when do we get this party started?" Annie asked with a gleam in her eye, she was chopping at the bit to rebel, she wasn't the kind of person who could stand for oppression, she was an individual who wanted to live like one, and this was a fun, efficient and creative way to do just that. She was excitend and you could see it in her eyes, she produced her can from her pocket again, "Seven Colors of Madness". And she was ready to drive the Black & White officers crazy.

[bury the year]

Gabe wasn't totally paying attention to Annie's question, but instead was watching the mysterious newcomer. He seemed to overreact to Gabe's response, which the teen found somewhat odd. If you were getting into something that was as intense as the Rebellion, rejection wouldn't come that swiftly. At least, that was the teen's hypothesis. He wasn't sure what was going on with the brunet, but it didn't bother him much. The person wouldn't rat, hopefully, or they'd implicate themselves in the process.

 

He then realized that the boy had seemingly dropped something, but he had picked up incredibly fast, too fast for Gabe to get a good glimpse. Unconcerned by the turn of events, he turned back to Annie, and realized he totally forgot what he was going to say. "Sure?" he offered up, tugging his hat sheepishly.

[Skarlet]

"Okay? I guess...'sure' doesn't really answer my question, but I guess all of this stuff'll be answered when the others turn up." Annie idly tossed her can into the air several times, catching it each time. She had a lot on her mind though. Who was that kid, what'd he drop, What was thier exact mission? Would she be able to escape arrest? Would she herself get to tag anything?

[Hydra of Ages]

Miles sighed and got up, feeling restless, which was quite unlike him. He glanced around, his view of the area tinted slightly brown by the tone of his glasses, which had become near-black in response to the sunlight. He glanced around, wondering what to do. Usually, he'd simply walk the streets; Unlike most other people his age, suspected of being ruffians or rebellious to the order of the B&W, Miles emitted an air of efficiency and order with his well-kept brown business suit, impartial-seeming glasses that were always tinted black while he was outside, and well-kept brown hair with stylish blond highlights.

 

The only spec of personality on his garb that would make people wonder twice about his personality was his shirt, worn beneath the jacket. While like usual, it was a uniform white, it was also emblazoned with the noticeable silhouette of a baying coyote, something he was rather partial to. More than a couple people had mistaken it for a howling wolf, and had gotten quite stern looks in return.

 

Miles continued to walk down the street, resisting the urge to plaster the nearby walls with some different color. The beauty of the color of his can was that, while it seemed like a rather inoffensive silver at first, given a couple minutes to dry, it became a dazzling display of whatever color would best suit the surface it was painted on. And that was even excluding its special ability...

 

He resisted the urge and kept walking. He knew he was a coward; he'd never be able to do it without others around to fight with him against the B&W.

Jonathan got the message late, as he woke u ate, and staed to rush over to the location. "Crap, crap, crap, crap! This is what I get or sleeping in! I miss all the cool stuff!" He was travelling by skateboard, and showed up there 5 minutes after starting and walked into the conversation. "Oh, good. I didn't miss anything. Nice to meet some of you and nice to see the rest again."

Gabriel stared out at the assembled group of teenagers, a look of vague curiosity plastered across his face. He didn't realize the word had gotten around that fast to so many people, but maybe that was a good thing in the end. Even though he hadn't met some of them face-to-face and probably wouldn't at all after the raid had taken place, there was a bit of comfort in the fact that they had came to support their cause and would risk their lives to do so.

 

He quickly tapped his skates' wheels against the hard concrete pavement, as if to check that they hadn't dislodged when he wasn't looking or paying attention. Satisfied with the hard metallic click, he spun around and slowly began to skate off. "We'll get all our answers when we get there," Gabriel said lazily. "But first, we'll need to arrive at out destination. You with?"

 

(((Sorry this took so long; I'm busy with offsite stuff.)))

[Skarlet]

"Let's get goin!'" said Annie happily "I'm itchin' to do this!" she almost said that a little too loudly for her own good, but caught herself in time. Annie was ready to jump on he board and have some fun. Black and White were cruel and opressive, Annie couldn't stand the thought of the dull dreary monochromatic lifestyle that Black and White existed to enforce. Once again, Annie tossed her can into the air and caught it effortlessly.

Waking up and getting something to eat, Shu lazed around more then actually necessary, and actually made himself quite late. "Well, this is the last chance i get to be lazy, so i might as well enjoy it." finally finishing everything up and grabbing a backpack full of nothing but a few changes of clothes and a bunch of spray cans, (both full size and mini) he walked over to the door and turned to take one last place at his home. with that, he turns and walks away, slowly tromping down the steps before skating off, slowly gaining speed as he tore through the streets. wearing his sutomized goggles, he was able to go at twice the normal maximum speed so that he was moving faster then a car on the freeway at speeds that would normally only be allowed on the autobahn. I have to get there as soon as possible! Shu had been to lazy and showed up right as someone was clicking his skates on the pavement and skidded to a sudden stop, turning sideways so as to ensure that he stop as quickly as possible and ended up right next to the guy that had clicked his skates. "Sorry I'm late, I figured i should enjoy my last chance to be lazy before things went down." Flashing a mischievous grin at everyone, he went to stand next to all of the others. Like him, some of them wore skates, although some of them also used skateboards and other things with wheels. "So how much time left before this starts? I forgot to grab my watch, so I have no idea what time it is."
