OOC-Rogue, for the love of everyone on this board, do NOT stop RPing.


BIC:

The principal beckoned in Ms. Isiadore, rising to shake her hand. He smiled and sat back down into his crimson plush seat, stretching slightly to the sound of squeaking leather.

"Ms. Isiadore, I want to thank you for coming to join us here at Celebration High. We're proud to welcome you to this cozy corner of New Jersey, where we try our hardest to portray a positive standard. I'm sure you've already noticed how free-spirited our students seem here. We give them their freedom here, but in return we ask much. As such, we attract the best and the brightest. If you plan on becoming a staple in the Celeberation family, you need to understand that there's a delicate system this school runs on. Follow the lead of those ahead and don't stray far. We don't want anything bad to happen to you, do we?"

The president seemed to exhibit a moment of coyness, before returning to his politically pleasant predisposition. "Hope you enjoy your stay here, Ms. Isiadore. Make yourself at home."




Eddie smiled nervously. "Thank you so much, Nina. I'll see you after fourth, ok?" Eddie gave Nina a quick hug before dashing off to his next class, somewhat reassured. He hoped things were going to turn out for the better now.

...With the final bell resounding through the halls, Eddie slowly walked out of the lobby and into the parking lot, looking for Nina's brother's car. Despite the myriad of cars, the parking lot felt eerily empty. That didn't make Eddie any more comfortable. He felt like the cars were spinning around him, like fear was churning the world around him, the eye of the hurricane. He saw one of the cloaked ones amid the army of automobiles and ran, chaos clawing at his senses. He dove underneath one of the cars and pulled out his cell phone, texting Nina with "IM BEING FLlweD in PaRKg Lot HELP", slammed out as quickly as possible as Eddie slowed his breathing. He couldn't be found, not when he was so close to safety!

(Yay Rogue!!)

"You've been this weird since you were a little kid." came a cool, deep voice from beside Eddie. "Yet Alessandro gives you enough credit to assume you'll change with age." Gianni, one of Nina's older brothers, a senior at their high school, was grinning from ear to ear as he spoke to Eddie. His voice was calm however.

Something freaked the kid out. Gianni thought to himself, hoping that poking fun at the boy would break the ice a bit. He was crouched beside his car, peering at Eddie as he hid underneath it. He outstretched his hand to help Eddie out.

"If you're looking for Nina, she's over there..." he chuckled as he tilted his head toward her direction.

Off to the side, about 30 feet away was Nina, standing by the school's exit. Her body language did not hide the fact that she was interested in the boy with whom she was talking to. Every once in a while, she would tilt her head back just a certain way as she would laugh at the boy's comment, all the while twirling a strand of her long hair between her fingers.

Bzzzzz

"Damn it Gianni!" Nina thought to herself as she reached a hand into her pocket to catch her vibrating phone. "I'm sorry. It's probably my brother...he's too impatient sometimes..." Nina says to the boy as she flips her phone open.

"Shit." She mumbled to herself.

Gianni couldn't hear what Nina said to the boy, but he saw her wave and break into a jog as she scanned the parking lot frantically.

"Over here!" Gianni called out and waved Nina over to his car.

Nina finally slowed her pace as she reached the car and immediately knelt down beside her brother, shoving him aside.

"Oh Eddie...I'm so sorry!" She exclaimed. "What happened, are you alright?"

Ahhh, the last bell of the day, the high school kids are heading home, another hour's work and the day is done. Good thing this is a smaller school. Koan pondered his situation, at least he was in a small school, with somewhat friendly staff. I wonder what Alyssa is up to... Koan dumped the load of trash he was carrying into the large bin he was toting around.

The school emptied quickly, not many club meetings today. Every sound was heard, and Koan entered a sort of trance, completing his work efficiently, and thinking of the day's events.

Eddie got up, looking around. He was panting frantically, looking around like a paranoid put to breaking point. "One of them found me! They've been stalking me! They get inside your head and break you down! Please, don't drive me home, they'll be waiting for me! We need to get out! I'll call my parents from your house, it'll be better that way!"




...Damn, that makes this situation far more difficult, the cloaked man pressed against the opposing side of the tree thought to himself. He couldn't get the boy, he calculated, until later. For now, he had to investigate Target B. The cloaked figure slunk away from the scene of Eddie and his friends into the school, where his next target awaited him. As soon as he silently entered a hallway through a relatively unused doorway, he closed his eyes and focused. He concentrated on the rhythms that all life took heed to, circling ever so naturally in his mind, until he clutched it with his ability. An invisible pulse emanated through the school, and all those still inside were made incredibly drowsy, to the point a cloaked figure was nothing but an indiscernible blur. He made his way down the main hall to find Target B brushing the lobby floor, unphased. Obviously, the man had an irregular circadian rhythm, but with enough focus, even the most energetic men fell to the cloaked man's power.

"Koan Tathata, I presume. You may call me the Sandman, and I insist you come with me for the time being."

Koan glanced upward, and sensed an amazing power emanating from this man. One not accustom to nature, at least. Koan sensed danger, reacting reasonably to danger, an unknown assailant, and an unknown power, Koan gripped the broomstick tightly in his right hand, and began to unscrew the stick from the broom head.

"I see you know me." Koan's eyes studied the man, trying to discern an intent. "I will call you the Sandman, but I will not come with you. My job is not yet done, and the school will only get dirtier the longer I delay."

With a slight tug, the broom stick came free from the head of the broom. Koan lifted the wooden pole and held it in one hand behind his back, taking a passive combat stance.

Gianni rose to his feet the moment Eddie did and got in the car. Nina, trying to keep as much attention away from Eddie as possible, simply nodded.

"It'll be alright. Nothing is going to happen to you...and when we get to my house, first thing you do is fill me in on everything, understand? Something's bothering you...I get that much...the dreams...but now people are really following you? Eddie, I'm confused."

She says as she opened the door to the backseat for her friend and casually made her way to the other side of the car, behind Gianni.

"By the way, can Eddie stay the night?" She asks as she closes the door and fastens her seatbelt.

The Sandman eyed up the broomstick staff. "How quaint."

He stepped forward, his hands beginning to glow with a faint blue aura. He seemed eager to pounce upon his target and snuff him out. The first thing Koan could see underneath the clock was his eyes, devoid of life and color, the ones that seemed to bore into its preys flesh. Was Koan ready for such a man?

Koan noted the glowing hands, definitely not natural. He swung the staff with a blinding speed, courtesy of his martial arts training, hoping to strike the Sandman on the noggin. Then leapt backwards, anticipating a strike from Sandman.

The Sandman raised his arms and absorbed the blow, bruising his forearm for certain. He gripped the pole and squeezed. He used the grip on the pole to stay close to Koan and reached in for a grab when suddenly he noticed wisps of mist creep around the corner. Suddenly terrified, he retreated backwards in momentary shock.

"So, it seems 'she' has found her way here, then, hmm? You and the boy have escaped my grasp for now, Tathata, but you will learn that resisting us has dire consequences. You are not our main priority, but as a young Mr. Powter will soon learn, we can be quite...efficient, when it comes to what we do. Until next time."

He turned and dashed down the hallway, escaping into the corridors of the school. Koan turned to see the mist subsiding, and found himself left with nothing but questions. Who was 'she'? Who was the group the Sandman referred to? And what did he mean about one of the students?




Eddie was trying to make sense of what was going on. His nerves were shot, but he KNEW he had seen someone. Someone in a black full-body cloak...

"I'm so sorry about this, Nina, Gianni. I don't mean to pester you guys, it's just I haven't been safe lately. I don't know what to do."

((Hooray for Rogue, yada yada yada))

Mr. Nathaniel shuffled a sheaf of papers on his desk and stuck it in his briefcase. His last class had just taken a large test, and he anticipated an exciting weekend full of marking grades. He reached out to open the door, but his hand skirted around the handle. He tried again, but once again his hand didn't make contact with brass.

"Good evening, Hellström."

"James."

A petite woman emerged on the other side of the room. She was in her early to mid-twenties, and wore her red hair tied in a bun.

"It really has been too long, Felicia."

"Not long enough."

"So did Shermann send you, or are you here on personal business, checking up on an old--"

"Get out."

"Beg pardon?"

"Tell Brennan to get out."

"Just Brennan. What about little old me?"

"I'm conveying a message from Shermann to Brennan."

"No message for me?"

"Not from Brandon."

Felicia walked towards James, he resisted the urge to cringe. She stopped when they were nose to nose, despite the two inches he had on her.

"A m-message from you?"

She paused for a moment.

"No."

And she strode out of the classroom. Nathaniel waited a few minutes, before attempting to leave, but when he did, he still couldn't touch the doorknob. He cursed and swung his briefcase at the window on the door, but it impacted before reaching glass, sending exams flying everywhere. He closed his eyes and took several deep breaths before crouching to pick the papers up.

Gianni simply shook his head from the front seat and Nina just shrugged. "If you're here, that means Dante cooks a larger dinner...I'm not complaining." Gianni replied nonchalantly.

Nina, however, remained quiet the rest of the ride home. Something about Eddie troubled her. She couldn't put her finger on it, and perhaps it was her bias toward him as her friend, but Nina was willing to take into account that there was something wrong rather than shrug it off as insanity.

When they pulled up the driveway, Nina wasted no time in exiting the car. Dante was already home, so there was no need to unlock the door. She made her way directly to her bedroom and tossed her bag to the side. "Eddie, I need your help with something!" She shouted down the stairs as she heard Eddie enter the house with her brother. Nina then flopped on her bed, arms and legs crossed as she waited for her friend.

Alyssa looked at the principal as he looked drunk with sleep. She found it strange. Then he saw him fall forward. Alyssa ran up and caught the principal. "Are you okay? Sir...." She blinked. She put a hand on the chair. Suddenly Alyssa found herself going through a wild dream state another time. Alyssa's eyes blankened as she looked forward. The seen was the same again. It was the same room. Alyssa looked at the clock 1:30 pm. She looked at a news paper on the desk, the same day. Alyssa looked around to see what she was seeing. Right infront of her was a figure turn around whisking white hair that suddenly turned a natural color. Leaving the room only to bump into Eddie. That's not his best friend..... She thought.

Alyssa was then kicked from the vision. She couldn't see anything else. Alyssa's eyes went back to normal as she shook her head. She put a hand on her head. That's twice in one day.... She thought. Alyssa looked around. "What's going on here?" She said looking down at the principal. Alyssa's face was sweaty so she took her jacket off to dry it off. Put the principal down and smiled leaving a note. "Here are my plans for tomorrow's Algebra classes." She left a bunch of papers on his desk and walked off. Alyssa walked out into the hall to see that other teachers were in the hall and they fell asleep as well. She held a look. "And I thought it was just the principal...." She whispered to herself. Alyssa wanted to ask Eddie what happened at the end of the day. She'll find time tomorrow to do so. Alyssa walked over to the janitor's closet. She left a sticky note on inside of the door so that when Koan puts all his cleaning supplies away he would see the note. The note states:

"Hey something weird happened today... I don't know how to explain it. Would you mind calling me?"

She left the school and jumped into her car. Alyssa looked at the school through her 94 Mazda MX-3. She sighed and put a hand through her hair. "Something weird is going on in this school," she said to herself. "I was transferred here for more than just teaching older kids." She pushed her foot down on the clutch and started the car. Alyssa put her foot on the break and pushed the emergency break down. She then put the car in reverse slowly taking her foot off the clutch and pushing down on the gas with the other foot. Alyssa looked behind her seeing nothing coming and got out of her parking spot. She then put one foot on the clutch then on the break. Alyssa then put the car into first gear and slowly placed one foot on the gas at the same time taking the other foot off the clutch. Alyssa drove the car forward changing from first to second and then to third. She drove all the way to her home away from home. She looked at her cellphone. It rang. "This is Alyssa..." She said answering it. "Oh hey Mom. Yeah it was very interesting today. Yeah Mom..." Alyssa walked out of her car and to the door using a key to open it. "I know her anniversary is coming, but I can't come home..." Alyssa sighed as she looked around..... "Just great..." She said looking around for missing items. Nothing was touched. Just moved. "No. New Jersey is okay. It's not like New Hampshire." Alyssa smiled. "Thanks for lending me your summer home. It's right near Celebration High so it isn't a far drive." She paused as she looked around the room for her grandmother's quilt. She put a hand on it.... nothing. "It's no big deal mother. I drive because I love driving a stick."

Alyssa sighed as she walked out of the house and looked forward at the neighborhood across the street. "Did you know I have neighbors who welcome me like everyday?" She laughed. "I know mom. I don't eat anything I get from them. Just because of what happened the last time. I know I know. Food poisoning isn't fun. Well I gotta go Mom. Love you." She hung up the cellphone and walked back inside turning the tv on and sitting on the couch. Alyssa sat still for a minute.

((OOC: Thanks, guys. It's been a really long time since I've done any sort of role play, and I'm still learning the ropes sometimes.))

Las Vegas, Nevada

Not long after Cally and Agwe made their escape from the Montecito, changing clothes and personalities in the process to avoid any recognition, police, FBI and Interpol swarmed in to investigate the situation. In many ways all of the law officials present were all too thrilled to see a scumbag like John Talos go down. That is, if it were Talos. Fingerprints confirmed it was, but there wasn't much left of the poor sap's face to do any direct identifying.

While Interpol tried to lay claim to the situation as they'd been looking for Talos for quite some time, lately to have him answer for the new Kalashnikovs the Sudanese Janjaweed were using, the FBI insisted on seeing the investigation through.


"What are we looking at here, boys?" One of the FBI agents, Mortinson, asked his corresponding agency members.

"I'd say based on the ammunition and grouping we're looking for a couple of standard issue UZI SMGs. With the way some of the bullet holes are burned, looks like silencers were used," one started.

"Oh those crazy Israelis," Mortinson threw in. "Rick, what can you tell me?"

"Lotta lead in the room, sir. Christ, LVPD's ballistics is up to 63 bullets in that wall alone," Rick reported.

Mortinson's brow furrowed. "63? I don't think our suspect would have had the time to reload and get away unscathed if he's got two magazines of ammo in the wall on top of what he pumped into these guys." Mortinson gestured at all of the bodies.

The room, abuzz with speculation, didn't notice the entrance of a darkened figure who walked into the room, surveying the scene, until his eyes fell on one body laying in the corner.

"There had to be multiple shooters!" one agent exclaimed.

"Another thing we're trying to figure out, sir--" Rick continued. "No one's finding any murder weapons, empty magazines or even any casings. It's like someone picked them all up and left with them afterwards. This happened almost within the hour, sir, I don't think anyone could have just taken their time rounding up all of the evidence before the camera system kicked back on."

"And what if I told you..." The previously ignored and altogether mysterious man who'd come in undetected began, with an obvious British accent, "That this is all just the work of some silly, little girl who conjured up her own little unlimited ammunition guns and spirited them away with a flutter of her eyelash?"

The room went silent.

And then...


"The fuck are you talking about?"

"Who are you?!"

"Who the hell let this drunk in?"

"Security!"

The mystery man mumbled to himself, "No ... I thought you wouldn't believe that."

He slowly ambled his way out the door, leaving behind the shot up carcass of a cocktail waitress in a tight, black suede vest with a matching skirt, a slit going up her left leg. Her long dark hair pinned out of her face. "LINA" on her name tag.

"Oh, Cally. What am I ever going to do with you?" he murmured, amusedly to himself.

The VIP lounge behind him was filled with the senseless and confused shouting of agents trying to put in their two cents.


"Maybe they had a vacuum cleaner!"

"What if they hired an illegal to pick up all of the shells as they were dropped?"

"Gentlemen! Gentlemen, please!" Mortinson shouted over the mass which quieted in unison. "We have 7 dead, no evidence. We're not turning up any fingerprints on what bullets we've pulled. The hotel's been searched and all staff have been accounted for. There's no tape of the shooting. We may be looking at a dead end. This case is closed until further notice."

With that the lounge door closed behind George Wilford.

Eddie walked up the steps through the house. It felt warm and inviting, as much so as his normal house. The steps creaked under his feet, and he noticed that while the house was filled with clamor, there was a peaceful silence that filled this house, unlike the unnerving buzz of most places. He slowly stepped into Nina's room, feeling slightly unnerved as he always did when he came into it. It had the feel of Nina about it, and he felt like he stained it with his presence.

"...Yeah, Nina? Whaddya need?"
------------------------------------------------------------

At the Powter residence, Eddie's father, a large, muscular man, was starting a stew on the kitchen oven. He had long, wavy black hair that was graying slightly, and heavy stubble, looking somewhat like an action hero, very much unlike his son. After finishing up the preparations, he doused his hands in a quick wash and stepped out into the living room when the doorbell rung, filling the house with the gentle song the doorbell created.

Mrs. Powter came down the stairs as it played, saying "Darren, honey, that must be Eddie. He must have forgotten his key."

Darren Powter walked to the door, unlocked the bolt, and swung the door open. "Hey, son-"

He instantly silenced when he saw who stood behind the door. Two cloaked figures stood, waiting at the entrance. The one closest to the door, obviously the leader, spoke in a sly, cocky voice. "Hello, Mr. Powter. Mind if we have a little talk?"

Alyssa laid back on her couch and sighed. She was waiting on Koan to reach her so that she can tell him what she saw. Alyssa flipped off of the couch and walked to her refrigerator. Lot's of containers from people with welcome notes on them could be found. Alyssa moved them all aside and took out a jar of strawberry jelly. She walked over to her living room and sat on the couch again. This time eating out of the jar and watching the news.

Koan was surprised by the man's actions, and the blatant telling of his plan...He made a mental note of this, and finished his rounds, heading home for the day. He grabbed the note from the janitor's closet. Reading it, and realizing it was miss Alyssa. A warm smile came across Koan's face, and he headed home.

His cheap, beat up, White Van came to a stop at Koan's rundown apartment complex. He lived in a bad neighborhood. Tough customers meandered about, eying the janitor, passing drugs off to their friends. They all stared at Koan, left him alone though, especially after Darnell's arm was broken in three places.

Koan's apartment was nice, sparsely decorated, very gentle feeling, a gold plated statue of Buddha was upon his coffee table. No television in sight, only a radio which was belting out cool jazz.

Koan sat in his recliner, grabbing the corded phone off of the side table, and keying in Alyssa's number. Whatever it was she wanted, it seemed important.

She pointed the chair at her desk.

"Sit." She said, taking her usual bossy tone when she wanted to get right to a specific point.

"Tell me what happened to you today. You were hiding under Gianni's car for Chrissakes and texting me like a nut. If it's getting that bad...Eddie, we need to tell someone!" She exclaimed. "I'll do everything that I can for you, but what happens to you when I'm shoved aside!"

At that, Nina jumped to her feet. Eddie was like one of her brothers, and it wasn't uncommon for Nina to blow things out of proportion when it came to protecting her family.

"If someone is following you and it's scaring you enough...shouldn't we take it to some sort of authority or something?"

She let out a sigh of exasperation. "I know I know. The dreams." She said, hurrying to get that in before Eddie could protest. "We don't have to tell anyone that part...it's just..."

Alyssa looked at her floor. "Something strange happened at school today," she said. "I saw the principal fall out and almost hit his head full force on his desk." Alyssa's eyes closed. "I helped him out... but something happened when I touched his chair." Alyssa could remember everything exactly, the time the day. "I don't think I was asleep at all but I could see something."
