Nero frowned and pinched at the bridge of his nose with mild exasperation. "I seriously hope it ain't them. One would think we'd seen the end of those nutjobs..." Nero flinched, then hurriedly shot a "No offense." to Rebekah. Granted, she was as far away from Weapon X personnel as a person could be now that she had her memories and no bomb to hold her down, but still, as the person with the most experience with being a part of Weapon X in the room, she still may feel a certain way. "If it is them, though, this seems to go completely against their earlier objectives. Weren't they originally all for mutants, as long as they were strapped with a bomb, and obedient as all can be?"

Havelock Vetinari Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 (edited) IC (Helicopter, Over New York) "Well, that went didn't it?" One of the soldiers spoke over the droning of the helicopter. His accent clearly British "I daresay we built quite a case against them. Can't wait for the media to pounce on this." He shook his head and removed his mask, revealing an impeccable mustache and twinkling brown eyes. "'Specially when the media get those copies of the tapes we sent out. Gonna be bloody chaos." The soldier's face split into a giant grin. "I mean, sure, those security guys are gonna be hurtin for awhile, but I think it'll go away when they see how much money was in that suitcase we left em." Yuri nodded. "This was a good first move. Public support will be high, the X-Men will be scrutinized quite heavily...and we might have just cost the president his office." He turned to the men around him. They'd planted a nice little chip in the guts of the broadcast equipment before they left, they'd be able to hack into the network and use it whenever they needed to. "Only thing left to do is...." Yuri opened a small laptop and pressed a single key, sending out a message to some very select members of the Enforcers, those who might join them. It told them to head to the docks, Pier 24, tonight. No other explanation given. It'd taken some fancy hacking and more then a few bribes to get the information he needed but...bolstering their ranks was worth it. Grinning silently, Yuri calmly opened a nearby window and hurled the laptop out of it. It would shatter when it hit the waves and the ocean would do the rest. Even if they managed to trace the message, they'd get nothing.

Zulu Yankee Kilo Echo Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 (edited) IC: Julia, 415 It had been two months. Two months spent rebuilding the mansion. Two months and still no word from Alex. Julia was clinically depressed, but she had stopped slicing her own arms open for Dallas's sake. Speaking of which, she needed to find him. And soon. Aaron Webb propped up his AWM on the ledge of the building overlooking the mansion. His arctic camo suit would make him nearly invisible from this distance. The scope provided an excellent view of the place, directly through the main lobby window. The students seemed to be congregating in an open area near a Christmas tree and a recently-destroyed television. For a moment, his finger lingered on the trigger, but he hesitated. These people were just teenagers; most of them were under eighteen, from what Aaron could tell. Why were they killing kids?Aaron shook his head, trying to eliminate any of the moral questions still lingering in his thoughts. He switched his headset on and let out a breath."214. This is 415.

Franco Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 IC: Yodo frowned. Much as he typically liked to rest and brood, he was currently stuck under a heavy shield that impeded any other movement or conversation. That meant no spreading of gloom and no saying of doom. A change of scenery was, therefore, in order. He thought of the Rho Aias reproduction and switched it off. Immediately the shield disappeared, replaced with the brilliant lights of the tree and the heady air smelling of nutmeg and chocolate. He pulled himself onto one arm and looked around. Where to next? As he thought, he found he still held his cup. Yeremi examined it. It had been drained dry and was no longer suitable for staring into moodily. Something to rectify at once. The mutant stood up with a directive in head: Obtain refreshment, then snark. He strode off towards the refrigerator with dreadlocks swirling and jacket flapping. Quote [Profiles] Wisdom. Restraint.

The bus driver had been in a hurry to get home, and failed to notice Chris as he snuck off the bus and headed into the city outskirts. Eventually arriving at a familiar place. An alley he'd frequented when he was much younger. Much simpilar back then. Although he didn't think in words (the memories he'd borrowed from Christine had worn off by now), he knew what he felt. Back at the beginning. He lingered there for a moment before continuing on towards the center of the city. He wasn't as angry as earlier, and he now wished he didn't leave. A smile broke onto his face. He decided that now was a good time to learn how to drive. Quote BZPRPG Characters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
