Sky City -remake( Pg-16/Started/Accepting)

[Spartan919]

Jason nodded, fully understanding his friend. And now, as he looked out at the barren road in front of them, he got the strange feeling that he wouldn't be feeling any happiness for a long time. "Yeah..." he said, his voice trailing away. While they walked, Jason glanced down at his hands. He still found it hard to believe that he possessed superhuman abilities. He clenched his fists, then raised his right hand to the sun. A wisp of yellow dust-like particles swam from the sun to his hand. When he pulled it away, and clenched it, it was glowing a faint yellow. He could feel the power in him, yet he knew the power that it had, both against opponents, and against him. He shoved his palm upward, and a beam of yellow energy shot out into the sky.

[Otaku-sama]

Paradox casually shoved the sword off course with a little push, the sword smashing into the ground. Paradox didn't really care much for the dead soldiers, but their corpses could serve as a helpful distraction while he finds a weapon to fight back with. Paradox lifted a few dismembered limbs and tossed them at Cultin, then took a great leap backwards in a graceful back flip. He landed a few metres away from the warden, who he pushed aside, hoping that he won't be killed in the crossfire. Paradox then quickly surveyed the area for a weapon.

 

The soldiers' guns were all heavily damaged from Cultin's sucker punch and the warden's pistol was out of ammo as the warden's dismembered arm pulled all the bullets out of the clip. Paradox then spotted a derelict street sign that had a 'No Entry' symbol on it. It was old, but it was metal and could stop Cultin's sword from hacking him apart. Paradox knew that an old street sign would not stop Cultin's impressive wind powers, but Cultin wasn't too smart. Paradox could use his clearly superior intellect to toy with his less intelligent prey, like caveman taking down a mammoth.

 

Continuing with his ploy, Paradox called out to Cultin.

 

"So Mr. Hotshot. You want to go down in fire and flames? How very...typical of someone like you. You think that letting a bunch of super powered freaks like us run loose in the city is a smart idea? Oh yea, you would think in your little mind that 'Oh, we are people! We demand equal rights and freedoms and blah blah blah'. Well, we aren't people. We're just property of the Man until the Man says we're people. Let's just stop this before it gets anymore ugly."

[Magnet Soldier]

"Of course. The infamous Paradox, playing with his enemy. Stop acting like I'm dumb. I'm guessing your just Jealous of my past. Me being the 'first-born' as it would happen, and the first Escapee. I'm sorry I left you behind, as I am about the other originals. But I had to get started. On what, I'm afraid I cant tell you." Cultin said, gathering wind around him. He had to survive this, and if he was right about this, as he usually was, Paradox would have an especially deadly, strong power. Just like the rest of the originals, arrogant as well. Perfect. Cultin thought, a grin spreading across his face. "Now, I'd look around." Cultin said, his blade just missing Paradox, cutting off a few strands of hair. He instantly twisted his wrist, swing his blade to cut Paradox's legs off. Of course, he didn't have to do this. He could have cut off Paradox's arms and legs before revealing himself. What was he thinking?

[Dark Lightning]

Joey sighed as she walked closer to James. She watched closely and attentively as he shot the yellow beam of light into the sky. Her eyes lit up at the sight. She could see Jason's aura. He was obviously amazed and surprised. Joey could easily understand him.

She walked ahead and kept thinking. She was happy that she wasn't going through all of this alone; She was glad that she had Jason, though she didn't show it much. Joey stopped, let out a small smile, and then continued walking.

[Magnet Soldier]

Name: Name Unknown. Refered to as 'Experiment TWO'. (TWO: The Wrong One.)

Age: Unknown.

Gender: Male.

Personality: Insane. Totally insane. He is a cold and merciless killer, and enjoys it. Another sign of his insanity.

Appearance: [spoiler=Put an evil smile on his face]

 

Good or Evil: Evil(Insane and Evil. Bad combination)

Power: [spoiler=First power]Total Hypnosis. This power allows the user to control all five senses of the opponent, allowing illusions, distractions and ETC. This can also cause insanity. Sadly, it effects the user aswell as the opponent, and this is most probably why he is insane. This can also attack the opponent physically, but cannot draw blood.

 

[spoiler=Secondary power]Misting. He has the ability to transform into mist. This makes him untouchable and undetectable, not even giving off heat. The only downside is that he cannot attack in this state.

 

Weapon: Nothing but his mind and his silver tongue.

Abilities: Not much, except for the abilities mentioned in the powers section and the ability to destroy anyone(s mind).

Attacks: As above.

Escape: No, currently held in the asylum part of the building.

Bio: Originally an ingenius Child born to a respected decently wealthy family. He was a child prodigy. His intelligence dwarved others, and was soon one of the cleverest people to ever have existed. He was ten when this was declared. He baffled doctors and made Psychiatrics insane. He was kidnapped at Twelve, causing a news story to baffle the nation. Then everyone forgot. Noone even recognised his name or face, not even himself. When he gained his power, he went insane. He wasn't even given the power he has. He was given the power to mist, but his mind quickly took advantage of the sirum and created it's own power, hypnosis. This caused the brain to malfunction, and although he kept his Intelligence, even gaining more, he became insane. He was contained and put in cryo stasis for three years. He was pulled out and pulled into the Aslyum section of the Labs and has stayed there ever since. He was the second experiment, causing the Name.

[Otaku-sama]

Paradox didn't have time to turn around, but Cultin's arrogant decision of revealing his presence behind him before striking will cost him. Paradox ducked down, the tip of his robe hood being sliced off, then skillfully mounting the street sign, balancing on it on one hand, his body upside down. The sword knocked the pole out of place, Paradox falling into the ground, where he landed on his hands and performed a backwards flip into Cultin, knocking him over while Paradox landed gracefully on his feet. Paradox waved his hands for the sign, where it flew into his hands. Only then did Paradox turn around to face his prey.

 

"Still just as smart as you were back in the lab huh. I thought this might be more of a challenge, maybe with me losing a limb or two. Now it's my turn bud."

 

Paradox gestured at Cultin, lifting him from the ground. Paradox did a quick flick of his hand and Cultin went flying backwards, scraping on the ground. For Paradox, this simple throw actually made an impact on his energy, as moving live beings were a lot different than moving a rock. Paradox then simply stood, waiting for Cultin's next move.

[Magnet Soldier]

"Of course. You still think you're the best there is. Have you not wondered why I haven't killed you yet? I could have chopped of three limbs by now. And I could have cut you in half, when I only got your hair. Look at the hair." Cultin said, standing up. The hair had changed. It was now flat, straight and green. "It is now mine. And so are you." Cultin said, before the hair was erased into the wind, along with himself. When he reappeared, he was holding the hair, which was now disintegrating. A giant slash had gone across Paradox's arm, nearly cutting it off. But the weird thing was, there was no pain in it. It was the other three limbs.

[Hotaru987]

Trinity gasped quietly a Cultin was slammed into the ground. She wanted to go in and help but was too scared. She didn't want Paradox to turn his attention to her, because she wasn't anywhere good with her powers. The only thing she knew how to do well was Misting because she was always using it to run away. Kind of pathetic really... She though, still trying to work up the nerve to go in and help Cultin. Oh! I know what I could do! She closed her eyes, holding onto the building for support. This was something that she had done before. Slowly the air started to get colder, and colder until everyone was able to see their breath. The only one that wasn't effected was Cultin as she made sure to control it. Her knees almost buckled under her, almost breaking her concentration. She was hoping to numb Paradox's senses, and limbs slowing his movements down.

 

------------------------------------------------

 

Nico contnued to watch the battle from on top of the building, however now he was sitting on the edge. "That attack he just did...It was straining for him." He noted after seeing Paradox's power. "And Cultin...Hm..He seems to be a tough opponent...Maybe I should join him." Nico said to himself his ruby red eyes following the battle. Suddenly he noticed his body heat increasing, indicating that it was getting colder. It still felt warm to him because of his powers but he took not that it must be really cold seeing as Paradox's breath was now visible. The only one who didn't seem to be effecte was Cultin. This power....It's...Familiar....

[Otaku-sama]

OoC: No arm severing man. Removing a part (parts) of a character permanently is GMing. Also, how is your character disappearing randomly. It's not in his profile that he can turn invisible

 

IC: Paradox blocked the slash to his arm with the street sign. The sword edge embedded slightly into the pole and Paradox took advantage. He spun the pole, twisting the sword in Cultin's grip, then pushed Cultin with a strangely powerful push, sending him flying across the ground, sword in hand. Paradox then took a rather casual pose, dusting himself off a bit.

 

"Wow, that was a close one! Where did you learn that trick? I thought it was only a few days since we've seen each other. I've actually got to start fighting now," Paradox mocked as he took a more serious stance. Paradox threw the street sign at Cultin, then sped off after it. As Cultin easily blocked the flying street sign, Paradox then followed up with a powerful drop kick onto Cultin's stance, forcing Cultin's sword arm into his chest, knocking him over. Paradox then quickly retrieved his street sign and took a defensive pose.

[Spartan919]

Jason panted with excitement as he watched the yellow beam split the sky. Turning, he looked at Joey as she walked past him. He would probably never tell her this, but he was glad that it was her with him, sharing in his pains and troubles. Shaking his head in happiness, he began striding forward again, small puffs of dirt flying up whenever Jason took a step. When he caught up with Joey, he slowed his pace until he was beside her. "Hey," he said quietly. "Do you think we'll ever get off of this road? That there will be a town or someplace where we can rest?"

[Magnet Soldier]

OOC: I didn't sever it, I nearly cut it off, leaving a big gash, not a loss of an arm. It was meant to be a paralyzing move, injuring one arm, while the pain was in the other limbs(This caused by small grains of sand imbedded into the body when the wound was inflicted). The disappearence was him increasing his speed, and using the wind to lift objects into the way. Oh and, didn't you read my Bio. He escaped a while ago. (6 years to be exact)

 

IC: "Well, you managed to deflect that. Good. But of course, noone ever totally escapes from my attacks." Cultin hinted, standing up again. He looked at Paradox straight in the eyes, before Paradox's legs were each slashed and a small scratch appeared below the eye. "Dont worry, it wont leave a scar. It's just remind you to stay away. Now, do you wish to continue?" Cultin asked, sticking his blade into the ground. "I warn you, if you wish to continue I will kill you. Something I do not wish to happen."

[Otaku-sama]

OoC: Then next time you shouldn't say things like "almost cut his arm off". Saying "gave him a nasty cut" would suffice. "Almost cut his arm off" is interpreted as "the arm was cut through the bone and is hanging from a strip of flesh" by me.

 

BTW, my character wears a full face covering, so saying that he cut below the eye would be a little irrelevant as Cultin wouldn't be able to slash with precision below the eye while still cutting through the cloth.

 

IC: Paradox's gamble didn't go as he planned, but he was far from done.

 

"Oh, you would like to stop wouldn't you? If you really want to stop, drop your freaky sword-lance thing and lets go find the warden. I'm sure he'll sympathize with you, it's only his arm."

 

Paradox got up slowly and dusted himself off, as if nothing happened. Paradox jumped high into the air, then performed an eagle kick from above. As Paradox was about to hit Cultin, he stopped in mid air and front flipped over Cultin, kicking him in the back. Paradox didn't wait to hit the ground to take advantage of Cultin's staggering and sent his face scraping against the ground for two metres. Paradox then landed gracefully, turned around and threw the street sign at the downed Cultin.

[Magnet Soldier]

OOC: Sorry, I'll put 'left a gash' next time. BTW, everyone knows what a lance is right? And It's not a jousting lance, it's one of them pike-like lances.

 

IC: As Cultin stumbled forward, a small gust flung him towardsa nearby building. Cultin landed on the building's outer wall easily, and jumped down. He grabbed his sword and used it to block the sign, chopping it in half. "Fine, if you want to die, then go to hell." Cultin then flipped his sword so that the blade landed in his outstreched arm. He gripped the blade, but no blood came from his fist. "Of course, we've both been there and back." Cultin muttered, grinning. His blade glowed, and vanished. In it's place was a large lance. But it was gone, along with Cultin, as they both appeared soundlessly next to Paradox, the lance's blade at Paradox's neck. "One wrong move and you die. Now, take me to the warden, I'd like to talk to him."

[Dark Lightning]

Joey continued walking. She heard Jason's question, but she didn't answer right away. She thought about it for a while. As she walked in thought, she came across a small rock, and kicked in down the path. Joey looked up into the darkness of the path and then turned to Jason.

"There should be an exit that we should come across soon...I mean, every road has an ending, right?"

As she thought about it, she slowly motivated himself to keep going, and her steps became a bit faster.

[Hotaru987]

Nico stood up when he saw Cultin's lance at Paradox's neck. He opened his hand and a flame appeared. He tossed the flame towards Paradox, and it surrounded him causeing Cultin to move away or be burnt. Once Cultin was away the flames disappated, and Nico jumped from his position and next to Paradox. "I imagine you didn't want any help, but I was getting bored sitting up there and just watching." He said in a voice devoid of emotion.

----------------------------------------------

 

Trinity, who had been stopped her power seeing as it was having no effect, had wide open eyes as she saw the boy who appeared next to Paradox to help him. Why was he ther? And why on earth was he trying to help him re-capture us. There's no way Nico would do something like that! They had to have done somethingto him!

 

"Nico....What are you doing...." She whispered

[Magnet Soldier]

"Hmm, a new guy. I dont believe we've met. But I wont bother with introductions, as that chip implated in you wont register them. It'll be thrown in the trash along with the Chip." Cultin shrugged his shoulders and clicked his fingers a bit. A wind was brewing, making the air chilly. "Now, there's a lot of clouds up there." With tha, Cultin pointed to the sky. "That'll make a nice rainstorm." He said, suppressing a chuckle as droplets of rain poured down. It was becoming hard to see, unless you were used to it. And you'd either have to have practised this skill, lived in the Amazon or have a similar power to be used to it. Cultin was two of these, so could see near perfect. "And it stops your fire power, nice bonus." Cultin said, just before his Lance came down on Nico's head.

[Hotaru987]

Nico looked at Cultin no emotion present. He didn't wait for Cultin to get much closer before dodging his attack. He knew he wouldn't be able to fight him at full strength since it's raining, but with both him and Paradox after him. Cultin wouldn't stand much of a chance. As the rain his Nico it quickly evaporated, and he wasn't getting drenched like those around him. He reached around and grabbed the hilt of his scimatar and drew it, and as soon as it was out a flam encircled it. "True the rain is a hendrence, but my power is only cut in half." He coked his head to the side, "It should be more than enough to handle you."

[Magnet Soldier]

OOC: Remember, your guy is now blind(and will find it hard to hear aswell. The sound of that much rain would call an immense headache. And a theme song for this moment:

. It is called fireproof, just to take the piss of your character.

 

"Funny. You musn't have been informed of me. How careless of them. Listen kid, I am the original, the prototype. I am the first one. I am a legen.....ok, maybe I'm going over the top there but to put it into a quick sentence, I am strong." Cultin said, now laughing slightly. He lifted his lance above his head and onto his shoulders. "But I am impressed you dodged that move. You aren't even an original. No matter. You'll be dead soon." And he outstretched his hand. "I've practised in these conditions. You haven't. I have a massive Advantage. Plus you're not even an original, so I doubt you would be as skilled." Cultin said, his voice thrown about eerily. Unbeknownst to the others, he was drawing his energy inside him. The rain now slightly bent towards him, not enough for anyone to notice, but enough for him to gain energy from it. "Now, let's finish this." He muttered, not even hearing his own voice. He opened his eyes, in them it was empty. He just wasn't there. But he still spoke. "You have lost." And he was gone, the rain was gone and both Paradox and Nico were on their knees, a mass of gashes across their bodies. He appeared next to Trinity. "I hope you realise I spared them for you. I have known you've been there all along. Now lets go, before they get enough energy to stand back up.

[Otaku-sama]

OoC: Uber much? You simply do some super speed so fast you don't even bother to post it and you defeat two characters in one post? Stop freaking GMing please. It's not fair for me or Hotaru. A real fight won't be ended in one post. Most fights like this should end in a stalemate since it's so early in the RP.

 

IC: Paradox was a little confused by the unfolding events as some fire wielding maniac had intervened and distrupted Cultin from poking a hole into his neck. Now he was in a rainstorm from God knows where that is so heavy that he could barely see what was in front of him. He could barely hear what unfolding. Paradox knew that he would have to change tactics to be much more aggressive than he was right now. Paradox blocked out the cold water from his mind and attempted to focus on Cultin's position. Paradox felt Cultin rushing past the other person and Paradox got ready to intercept.

 

Cultin closed in on Paradox and Paradox made a dramatic pushing motion, stopping Cultin in his tracks. Paradox had caught Cultin by his left leg, stretching it as it held back the momentum of the rest of Cultin's body. Paradox grinned from under his mask as he turned Cultin upside down, floating in the air as if there was an invisible giant suspending him by his leg. Paradox then gestured upwards, sending Cultin flying into the air. Paradox jumped up and followed Cultin into the air. Paradox then struck Culting with three heavy swings of his arms then send him flying back into the ground, Paradox pushing him down faster with his legs.

 

They landed onto the unforgiving ground, Paradox jumping off Cultin at the last possible moment, landing on his back. Cultin took a massive force to his back as he impacted the ground with great force. Paradox slowly got up, tired after such an attack, but satisfied that his attack would set Cultin down a couple notches.

[Hotaru987]

Ooc: Just to let you all know Nico isn't the one talking, it's the chip talking through him. And it'sthe chip that's controling his movements. Just thought I'd make that known now.

 

While Paradox was attacking Cultin, Nico raised his hand high above his head. Normally he would take the heat from the atmosphere to create his fire, but because of the weather conditions it would be a much slowly collection. He would need to concentrait harder to pin point the hot spots, as well as take his own body heat. His raised hand began sizzling and heat began radiating off of him as a good sized ball of fire hovered inches over his hand. Only when Paradox was out of the way did Nico send it towards Cultin.

---------------------------------------------

 

Trinity bit her lower lip as she watched Cultin get attacked by Paradox. It had begun raining, and she began to calm down feeling safe in her element. What caught her attention was Nico attacking Cultin who was still on the ground. Quickly decided what she was going to do, she ran from her hiding spot. As she did the falling rain shifted dramatically, and began swirling around eachother forming an oval shield hovering over Cultin.

 

The fire ball hit the shield and it began evaporating dousing Cultin with a very hot sheen of water. Trinity ran next to Cultin to help him up. "Are you ok?"

[Magnet Soldier]

OOC: Sorry, I just got a bit bored of the fight. I'll say the formor post was how he saw it happening.

 

IC: "Yeah fine." Cultin said, standing himself up straight. "But I'm surprised. They could hardly see or hear, and they still managed to survive that attack. I'll have to pull out a few tricks. Get back." Cultin shoved Trinity back, almost knocking her into a puddle. Altleast the rain was still there, he had an advantage as long as it stayed. He began twirling the lance in his right hand, creating a gust of wind. "Now, let's get this started, right. You two must be thinking the same thing." And Cultin's Staff glowed slightly. "Now, Lanza del Viento" Nothing seemed to happen, except Cultins lance vanished. Noone noticed, but it did. Then the two other men were both cut across the cheeks by a lance, both at the same time. "Now, you cant escape." Cultin said, as the wind vanished and thirty lances flew at Nico and Paradox.

[Spartan919]

Jason blinked, and looked into the unyielding sun. Not quite as optimistic as Joey, he brought an arm up to block out the sun's glare. "Well," he said, still staring upward, "this could just be a road that leads to that building back there. For all we know, this could be just some random trail." Jason looked down to see that Joey was continuing ahead, and speeding up. Picking up his speed a little, Jason caught up to her. Gulping a little, he reached out, and took her hand in his. "Don't worry," he said softly. "We'll figure this out."

[Dark Lightning]

Joey walked until she felt Jason take her hand. She stopped and blushed for a split second and then she turned her head away and continued walking

"Yeah, I know we will..." she said quietly. Joey didn't like being in a situation like this. One where she was forced to take everything seriously. As she walked, she noticed that her cap was falling off so she tightened it onto her head, and move her bangs away from her eyes.

[Hotaru987]

Nico watched as Cultin pushed the new girl back and a glare found his face as the chip was over powered for a second, before his face turned blank again. Cultin then sent an attack at them. He could barely hear him over the rain, even with the chip enhancing his senses. He just heard him declare an attack giving him enough time to encase them in a dome of fire. "I do apologize if you are feeling cold. I cannot make flames without some sort of source." Nico said in an emotionless voice.

 

---------------

 

Trinity had to stop the sigh of reliefe when Nico was able to guard himself. She didn't want him to get hurt but she didn't want Cultin to get hurt either.

[Spartan919]

Jason continued walking, and after a while, realized he was still holding Joey's hand. He blushed, and looked away, hoping she hadn't noticed. When his head turned, he saw something that made his heart both jump and plummet. A town lay ahead...right below a giant storm cloud. It was raining. Of course, that powered both his and Joey's powers, but...Jason shook his head, and decided not to worry about the rain. He tugged on Joey's hand to get her attention. "Joey! I see a town...or city...or...buildings up ahead! We should hurry, to see if there are any people there!" With that, he quickened his pace to a rapid jog, pulling Joey along with him.
