LHudson | May 3 2015 - The Broker -
"You mean you called her down here?" The Broker sighed. "You know, considering the less than friendly relationship the two of us had, it is surprising that you'd want her as close to me as possible." The Broker picked up the arrows and gave them back to Luke. "I told you not to use these, we're stupidly fortunate that the Pursuer wasn't wearing his helmet."
He took the explosive off Jason before limping back to Felix. "You're a good kid N, you really are. You have self awareness and you care about family, but unfortunately we have to make decisions for the rest of the world." He took the explosive off Felix and placed both ticking bombs on a wall. He turned back to the three and walked a little towards them. "By the way, Luke, Felix, I hope the two of you know how to ride a motorcycle".
The three remaining explosives went off. Behind the Broker was an alleyway not exposed to the government street, two motorcycles, and the explosive at the door also went off, meaning the four needed to move quickly.

"I'm sorry. Next time you're in trouble, I'll stand by and let you deal with it," Luke snapped, sarcasm dripping from his voice as he snatched his arrows back, in frustration. As he did so, he placed the arrows back in his quiver. "I haven't ridden a motorcycle for weeks, but yeah I know how to ride." Motorcycles were a vehicle that Luke loved to use when he wasn't in the mood for free-running, though it terribly reminded him of Lilly, before she had returned. As it was Lilly, who taught him in the first place.

Tzeench | May 3 2015 - Mira Judicium - "Umm.....i have no idea Miss Jade" Mira says with a small cute yawn, stretching up "And I am worried about big sis too....And Fluffy has disappeared , maybe he ran away. I am so tired..." . Her eyes began to close as she fell on Jade's shoulder, snoring softly. - Slanesh -
"ANd that's where you are wrong darling" A voice soft as Velvet was heard behind the oily Daniel. THe music started again, this time a different song altogether playing.
Behind the amalgamation of Cooper's guilt and self loathing, stood Slan'nesh, in the scandalous outfit Cooper met her. Around her , glowing pink brambles with thorns had infested the corridor. "Sorry for being late darlings " THe prince of pleasure said, blowing a kiss over Argent as he shifted in a quite familiar form , dancing to the tune while a disco ball appeared from the ceiling "BUt i had to figure out how to beat this thing, and i kiiinda did" . She smirked as the brambles darted at her command , constricting the oily creature , keeping it in place. "I want a walk through your subconscious Coopie, hope you don't mind. Your ocean of childhood traumas and guilt was most exquisite. " SHe continued "Kinda gloomy though...I needed to ....add my "personal" touch. And i touched it, i touched it all over. They did not call me the Great Corrupter without reason you know. Those plants ? THat's the mental manifestation of my powers . Lovely, don't you agree". More pink brambles erupted from the ceiling, wrestling the struggling creature to place . "I am in control now, not him" She said with a green, approaching the not-Daniel "And i am going to punish this naughty boy for hurting you ~".

Arla | May 3 2015 - Felix Norwood -
"I didn’t call her down! I’m not nuts!» The Broker fetched the arrows, took the bomb off Jason and limped back over to Felix. He coughed, his throat dry from all the sugar, and decided to stay silent while the Broker gave him a small lecture and detached the bomb on his shoulder. The bombs went off. “A motorbike?” Felix paused as a grin lit up his face. “I don’t know what’s more mental; that you think a fourteen-year-old can ride, or the fact that I actually can.” He leaped over to the motorbike and jumped onto it. It was ever so slightly too big for him, yet his eagerness somehow weighed up for his lack in height. - Snowflake -
Snowflake kept a keen eye at the explosives as the Broker placed them against the wall.
The bombs went off.
She leaped across the roof and looked down the alleyway; two motorbikes conveniently placed for the criminals to make their escape. She grinned and waved Crimson over.
“Their escape plan,” she pointed at Felix, now sitting on one of the motorbikes. “Blood? Could you do me a favour and pick him up?”

Arbor117 | May 3 2015 - Reaver -
Nariko's jet hovered over the building, silently watching like a bird of prey. "Motorbikes?" Reaver smirked. "How very Broker. Loves a secret vehicle, that one." She keyed the comms. "Snow, you don't seem to be getting your brother. Now, I really want to shoot someone and your brother is covering the Broker's escape route. Move him, please." - Hammerfist -
Jason stepped back as the bombs went off, covering his eyes.
"So are we just leaving this guy?" He called out, looking down at the fallen Pursuer. "He saw your face... Uh, what do we do?" He looked at Felix. "Who's she? And why is she coming down?" Not the the first time, the young man felt like he was irrelevant to the team, and certainly hadn't been told what was meant to be going on. He had been left in the dark.
- The Speaker -
"Don't be flattered, my young friend. Simply be better!" Ragno laughed merrily. His powers made his convincing words utterly unquestionable. He was her friend, and she could trust him. "Now, are you going to give a welcoming speech? You are the host, of course."

- The Broker -
"Yes, we're leaving him" said Broker, taking a look at the recovering Pursuer. "Without proof, he can't link this robbery to us. We leave now." "Gentlemen" said Claudia over the headphones. "Mr Sinova is sending his regards. He's sending some of his men towards you." "We'll have to move." The Broker limped forward with his assault rifle, loading it up as he jumped at the back of Felix's bike. "T, there's a present inside your bag. With these goons on the way you might want to use it. I heard you like things that go...boom". He tapped Felix's shoulder, indicating him to go. - Shadow Fixer -
Cooper looked up at the white room, now his augmentation lab. Sla'Nesh had arrived to deal with Daniel, but torturing a memory was hurting Cooper. He staggered into the room and tapped something on the monitor. The table lifted, ready for it's patient. Cooper climbed onto the table, and buckled himself in and the table entered the process. "My dear, you've been through my memories. Is the Daniel you're dealing with the only one in my memories?"

Luke hopped on to the other motorbike, revving the engine as he waited for Jason to get on the back. - Raven -
"Yes, excuse me," Lilly said politely, as she stepped inside to join the rest of the guests. She had chosen a suitable room to host it in, it was able to echo her words in case no one had heard and she was sure that they could. She stepped on a platform set up in the front of the hall, and began to speak. "Attention, attention. I would just like to welcome you all, to our first fund-raising for The Citadel. Thank you all for attending." Lilly took a short breath, and was ready to begin her speech.

Adam | May 4 2015 - Crimson -
Crimson grinned, "I'd love to."
Crimson leapt off of the building towards the alleyway that The Broker and his men had just entered, performing a somersault as he fell. Crimson moved quickly, almost as if he'd rehearsed this in his head for the last thirty minutes.
He landed on the back of the target's bike, throwing his left arm around the young boy and magentising his own gauntlet to his own chestplate to secure the boy.
"Hiya..." Crimson whispered delightfully into his ear before slinging his right arm behind him and firing the grappling hook at the building he'd leapt from.
Swiftly, the two soared onto the rooftop. As they landed, Crimson detached his arm and pushed the boy to his sister.
"One troublesome little brother," he quipped, "Just as you ordered!"

"We'll, it's not like I'm going to kill it or anything ~" Slan'esh said smiling to Cooper " I'm going to use my powers on it. Change it, corrupt it. After its nothing more than a mess begging for more, I will do it again and again, to any memory troubling my Coppie". She softly caressed his face " You are the only one who was nice to me without my powers. We are going to be Best Friends"

LHudson | May 4 2015 - Shadow Fixer -
The process started. The machines started to adjust his arms, and then his legs, and then started adjusting his right eye. The process was just as painful as he remembered, repositioning the nerves into the cybernetics, and getting it synched with the AI. The process was completed, and Cooper was ejected from the table. His arms and legs were steaming, and it took a small amount of time for him to get use to the sensation. He walked towards a nearby table and typed in a code. Opening up, the rifle. Cooper took it and loaded it with the ammunition required. He turned to Sla'Nesh. "You will not change Daniel, you will not corrupt him. It's bad enough I'm questioning my recent memories but the ones that impacted my life and reason are to be left untouched. We're here to deal with the Marshal's plague, and that is all." - Benedict Strahm -
The meal was delicious. Good steak and a good discussion. Strahm talked with some entertainment business men. Television, film, radio, writing, music, paintings, the lot. It was interesting to see these different minds come together with at least one common goal. He knew some of the minds of these people. Some people there to want to help, some want to secure their business while contributing to the city, while the others were hoping to exploit the current situation as Strahm himself did. He did buy The Village at a relatively cheap price because the owner wanted to flee, and he was prepared to acquire another club.
For now, the woman he met at front was speaking, For now, the woman he met at front was speaking, this should be interesting.

iCaramelBird | May 4 2015 - Raven -
"As you all know, we have been through a very difficult time. Concerning the atrocious riots, that have affected us all," As Lilly spoke, she tried her best to make it seem as if she were trying to control her emotions, and evoke sympathy from the crowd. She spotted Ragno, and placed her next plan into action. Her eyes met with the hunched over champagne-addicted man, who Ragno had guessed was grieving. "We have lost many loved ones." She then darted them towards the opportunist. "We've lost our government." She then looked at Ragno. "And we've lost our very stability that holds this city together." She took a short breath and continued.
"I understand that every single one of us in this room have lost something, many of which we can't reclaim. But there is hope. Our old government has been abandoned in the hopes that we can bring change to this city. Adaptability is the key to survival, and here at the Citadel, we will provide the stability, security, and safety that you all deserve. Infrastructure needs to be rebuilt. The economy in our fair city is broken. Our work force has been severely hampered. As well as all this, aid relief should be provided to citizens, for their safety and hopeful recovery. Not only that but the police force is in disarray, leaving us vulnerable. These are important issues that lead me to believe it is vital, we focus upon first. Thank you so much for coming, any direct questions can be given to me. However, a manifesto is soon to be published with more details. Any donations you could perhaps provide now, would be welcome in our fair Citadel. Thank you all so much for coming, and I hope you enjoy the festivities." Lilly gave a warming smile as she ended the speech.

Arla | May 4 2015 - Felix Norwood -
Felix was filled with surprise when he whizzed through the air and landed on top of the archives’ rooftop. He stumbled as he was pushed forwards into Snowflake’s embrace, ever so slightly disoriented but even more so confused and agitated. “Flurry?! Wha-?!” “Shh! You’re not hurt, right? You seemed fine earlier,“ she held his head in her left hand, looking for any sign of bruising, “I remember a gun-“ “LET GO!” Felix grabbed her hands to push her back but stopped when he noticed something unusual. “..you’re warm?” Snowflake frowned and hugged him again to hide her facial expression from him. “He did this,” she muttered into Felix’ ear, “The Broker took you and my powers. I don’t remember much-“ “He couldn’t have taken your powers! ..though you could’ve had a bad reaction to the sedative he gave you. Does that mean your healing factor..?” “Yes,” Snowflake took a step back and peeked over the edge. A malicious grin spread across her face when she pointed the gun in her right hand towards the Broker. “It’s about time someone put a stop to this.” Razor sharp claws caught Snowflakes arm in a tight grip, threatening to pierce through her skin. Snowflake turned her head and looked with confusion at her brother’s determined, betrayed stare. “You’re going to kill him?” “Felix, wha-?” The grip tightened. “You promised me, Flurry.” “Felix, we don’t have ti-“ “Let them go, NOW!” Snowflake glared back and spoke loud and clear. “Reaver! The Broker is yours!” “RUN! NOW!!” Felix yelled into the streets below, hoping it wasn’t too late for the three of them to escape. Unlike Snow, he cared about the hundreds of lives depending on the Broker's survival. - La Mirage -
Jade watched the little girl as she quickly fell asleep with her head on her shoulder. Jade's face was still smiling, yet her eyes revealed a melancholic blue colour. “..so this is what it’s like, being a sister. I guess you’ll sleep here, little one.” The thought of Scarlet crossed her mind and she looked into the thin air with empty eyes. She tilted her head and sent a half-hearted smile to Alex.
“You know, I can’t get in touch with my dad. He should be downstairs at the fundraiser, but he hasn’t tried to contact me. I just hope that my family is safe. Still, I’m glad that we finally can get some rest.”
Jade stopped talking and laughed tiredly.
“I’m sorry, I don’t know why I said that.” She sighed and tilted her head to rest on Mira’s. “..Would you mind staying here a little while? For some reason, it feels like a witch might pop her head around the corner anytime. I think I’m starting to get paranoid.”

Acchilleus stepped into the office, taking in the various furniture and ready to make a deal. - Raven -
Lilly stepped down from the platform as the guests applauded, eventually the applaud died away and many of them began to talk to one another as they indulged in the drink and social etiquettes for the time. She expected more than a few guests to question her. - Hunter -
Luke heard Felix suddenly shouting at them to leave, as he looked up from the motorbike, fearful as he knew something was going to happen. Noticing that Felix was no longer on the motorcycle that the Broker was on, he took Felix's place, revving the engine.

Wild Cards guest walked through the door "Ah Mr Acchilleus glad you could make, please take a seat" Wild card said standing up and gesturing the seats in front of the desk "so i hear you have a business opportunity i might be interested in?" he said sitting back down in his chair. - Cheshire -
As the other guests went and chatted among each other Cheshire made his way to the bar "good evening sir what can i get you?" the bar man asked "the drinks are free aren't they? and if so ill have a water please" Cheshire said leaning on the bar, the bar man gave a strange look and got the glass, Cheshire looked around at the other guests 'hmmm not many people in here would help' he thought to himself as the glass was put on the bar
