Arla | May 8 2015 - Felix Norwood -
Felix listened in to the Brokers conversation with Claudia as police troops entered the building underneath their feet, shouting and maneuvering around each corner in search of the hostages and, of course, the ‘long gone’ criminals. Soon enough they noticed the commotion through the hole in the roof, and the brave police of the Capital ran up the stairs in full speed, shaking yet prepared to fight with what strength they had to keep the grand city safe. One minute. We need to swap places when he arrives. The open door glared at Felix like an open wound, so he decided to do something about it. - Snowflake -
“Step!” Snowflake placed her feet firmly underneath her and hunched her back ever so slightly, then Felix leapt up to her shoulders and used her as a stepping stone before he jumped over Crimson and on the Pursuer’s head. He landed gracefully behind his back and quickly greeted the first police officer to appear on top of the stairs by slamming the door in his face. Felix pierced the door with his nails, pinning it to its frame to ensure that the officers wouldn’t be able to break it open too soon.
He pulled a seemingly normal switchblade from his pocket and cut off the claws from his fingertips and regrew them the instant they were severed.
Snowflake smirked and dared to look around the roof for any escape routes.

Adam | May 9 2015 - The Knight -
Blake awoke from his sleep, groggy and annoyed. It was around half past one in the morning and he hadn't slept for very long at all. He hated it; doing nothing. He'd given up on university seeing as half the time he couldn't attend due to hero duties and he was already pretty damn smart as it was, so this left him with pretty much no life outside of heroism; he had no friends in Heartania, and back home all of his friends from school were mostly rich snobs. And so Blake emerged from his bedroom and entered his office. He sighed, pulling out his chair and sitting down. He pulled up a local news website. Streets left Ravaged after Terrorist Attack
New Supreme Chancellor Promises to Clean up Streets
Blake looked to his bookmarks, and proceeded to check his social media until he happened upon some curious statuses.
Dave @davethedude Anyone else see all those bullets and rockets coming from the sky? #wtf
Backwards Potato @backwardspotato @davethedude Maybe it's aliens 0_0
Clara Jane @clarajanex i blame that kramer guy. clean up the streets? more like move the threat from heartania to us
David Realman @notspam I invited you to play Super Awesome Wars! Join the fun at bit.ly/1cBEOLP
"What is this?" Blake asked himself to audibly, "This is was the Pursuer was called to." Blake was shocked but found peace in remembering that Starlass ensured that everything was under control. Who would spray a city with missiles at night, when no-one's around? Who are they targetting? Why? These were all questions running through Blake's head. The coffee shop was open. Or one of them would be. He could go get an early-morning coffee. He wanted one. He so desperately wanted to go get one, coming up with every excuse for why he couldn't help. "Goddamn it." Blake walked into his kitchen and closed the door. He switched off all of the lights and left his apartment, locking the door behind him. Exiting the building, he walked into the alley he began to stretch. Finished stretching, he took a wide stance and turned on both of his Knight Braces. He crossed his left arm across his chest, and the right so they overlapped to form an X. The two Braces flashed, with an audible whir. "Knight-1! Transform!" he called as green energy enveloped him in a flash, transforming his clothes into his new costume before the green and white tendrils of energy wrapped themselves around his body, forming the Knight-1 suit as the light faded. Changing his stance, he pulled his left forearm in front of him, inspecting the holographic display shown on it. The Capital City was a distance away. It would have took a car hours; a plane, at least one hour, but jet boots from an alien realm, co-created by a dark god of technology and a boy genius who could make clean energy from essentially adrenaline? Not too long. "Starlass." he said, activating comms, "I'm inbound. Fifteen minutes, tops." This flying ability was too good to last.

LHudson | May 10 2015 - The Pursuer -
The Pursuer saw the males swoop around to block the door. One stuck a blade through his shoulder, while the other just concentrated on the door. The Pursuer took in the pain and the surroundings before something forced his arm to his ribcage. An explosive on his shield stumbled him slightly, but it didn't stop him from experiencing pain in two different areas. He gritted his teeth, pulled out the blade with his hand, and looked at the two males. "You honestly think you can defeat the law of the land. This...pack of animals..." he faced the female. "...and a ditz with complete disregard for other people." He squeezed his hand and the blade shattered, before resuming his charge towards the female. - The Broker -
The Broker rode the bike up the parking lot before reaching the top floor. "OK, which way?" A small explosive went off. "I'm guessing that way, before turning his bike towards the source and landing on the roof opposite.
"Jason, Luke, we're getting out of here. Get to the highway underpass, Claudia's waiting for us there. I'm going to pick up Felix, but there's the possibility of gangsters heading towards you. Keep me updated."
Full throttle, rooftop to rooftop, towards Felix.

- Hunter -
Luke nodded at The Broker’s words, his attention now upon the highway underpass which teased itself in the distance. Wind struck, causing him to shiver and distract himself from the decaying husk that met his eyes. A loss of control upon the water, had similarly almost dismantled him like the harsh breeze, yet he gained control, trying to calculate the best path from crumbling roof to crumbling roof. As he did so, a glint of light had met his eyes, as the background noise became a new focal point. His eyes hovered toward The Pursuer, and an odd sense of pity filled him. He took a sharp breath, and decided to focus on the task at hand, and ran toward the edge of the roof and to the decaying husk.

Starlass finally got a response from Blake, and smiled. She landed softly beside Frequency, and caught a breath.
"Backup's inbound, let's hit the sky. Hold on."

- Bellonna Warhammer -
Bellona watched as Ares raised his sword. He was ready to deflect her attack. She threw her glaive shield, deliberately making it go past Warbander.

Adam | May 10 2015 - Crimson -
"I ain't trying to defeat the "law of the land", buddy." Crimson smirked, "Just you."
"Frosty," Crimson nodded to Felix "I might need a hand... I should've packed a bigger explosive."
"Keep the sword." He quipped, dashing back around to Snowflake's side and pulling out his twin pistols.

Tzeench | May 10 2015 - Strakov -
"Very well, we shall continue this in another time, in better sentiments i hope" Strakov nodded, exiting the Building as his personal jet-Engine VTOL was waiting to take off. "THis is the Operations Director here" He talked to his commlink "Get the infantry and the batteries on the SKyshield, we were not given clearance for them to be inside the city. Also, send a squadron of gunships to this commotion Downtown, i have reliable information that Reaver will be there. All weapons are to be held until offensive action is taken. Search and destroy. Skyshield is to remain as it is, it's cannons will cause too much collateral. I will arrive soon to observe the situation. As well, contact the United Nations Supernatural Defense Department. I request subject 65-b. Commander out"
- The Blob -
"So umm…. what do we do now big Guy ?" The blob asked the great snake-like monster , munching (or rather, digesting alive) the last of the Gator men "YOu got anything to do ? I just live here" Fluffy sniffed the ground, searching for a very peculiar scent , . He slithered through the sewers, following black dribs of blood while Blob was hopping around him cheerfully. He cared not. He had to find the little mistress.
- Slanesh -
"Whatever you want Coopie !" Slan'Esh chirped happily "THough….i don't know where the plague thing is. Not on your subconscious for sure. By the way, on my way there to stop the Daniels i might have accidentally gave you a thing about rubber duckies. I hope you don't mind"

Arbor117 | May 10 2015 - Reaver & The Adamant Tyrant -
Reaver sighed loudly. "The Broker is basically bulletproof." She mutteredt to herself. "Nariko, please tell me we can find him." She turned to the merc, who had turned to one of her tech specialists. "Yes, yes we can." Nariko's grin was wild. "We hacked into their communications. We could go after the Broker..." She turned to the controls. "Or we could exchange one sibling for another." Reaver liked that idea. She liked it a lot. "Take us in, Nari. Let's make this a more interesting exchange." The VTOL cloaked, and set off to hunt it's new prey. - Hammerfist -
"Brokes!" Jason called. "I can get Felix. I'm faster than your bike and I'm a hell of a lot stronger. Leave it to me and get to cover before those bastards kill you!" His voice was panicked. This was rappidly turning into chaos. He broke into a sprint. He would help the Broker no matter the situation. - Argent Mind -
Argent Mind simply frowned.
"So, Cooper, what do you want me to do? Your fine acomplace seems to have things in order, but if you need the help of this evil abuser, don't hesitate to ask."

- Frequency -
Frequency heard Knight and simply said "Sounds good." The VTOL started to cloak and she simply said "Oh no you don't!" and leapt for the VTOL. She landed, and prepares to hold on. "Starlass! You able to start melting this thing?" - The Broker -
The Broker simply said to Jason "Don't! There's gangsters on the way and you've got the energy and means....besides, I need someone to perform surgery on me on the fly, and Felix can do that." The Broker's eyes were fading. The blood loss, the tiredness, and the bullet still in his body, he needed to get this done quickly. He kept going from rooftop to rooftop, and finally honked the horn as he landed on the archive roof, holding his hand out and still going full speed. - The Pursuer -
The Pursuer brought up the shield, and started to charge. He swung his blade towards the female, and threw his shield towards the younger male.

NathanielCoran | May 10 2015 - Starlass -
Shit. That's a pain.Starlass grabbed hold of Frequency and carefully lifted the both of them into the air. "I'm not sure. I'd rather not fire blind, so let's not try it." She hung on that thought for a moment, hoping an idea would pop into her head. It took a little longer than she expected. The thing's invisible, but not gone completely. This will be tough to pull off, but it's worth a shot."Sonar," she barked into the communicator, striving to be heard over the obnoxious sounds of destruction surrounding her, "The VTOL's gone cloaked. Can you still track it?" The boy tuned out of the street's noises to look for the aircraft. His ears rang a little from Starlass' shouting, but he recovered quickly, turning his comm volume right down. "Clear as day, mate. That thing makes one hell of a racket." "Alright, I need you to keep its location up to date for me. Where is it right now?" "Up the street from me. Coming closer. I don't think it's above the rooftops just yet, so if you cut over you should beat it back here." "Copy that. I'm on my way." Starlass hauled Frequency higher, hovering over the nearby buildings. With a passenger, she couldn't travel anywhere near as fast as she'd like, but the help was more than worth the effort. - The Chieftain -
Ares, expecting a direct attack, rolled to the left to dodge Bellona's shield. He overcompensated the trajectory completely, and the weapon flew about two metres wide. She wasn't aiming for me at all. Damn, now she's positioned to attack from either side. Well played, Bellona.
He didn't have many options right now. Moving to attack Bellona put her shield right behind him, while trying to block the disc exposed him to counter-attack from her. There was only one option, and it was so foolish he wish he hadn't thought of it.
He switched Excalibur to his left hand, his weaker sword hand. With it on this side, he could put it between himself and Bellona, and move to attack the chain attaching Bellona's shield to her arm, but at the risk of Bellona out-duelling him if she went on the offensive. He took the two strides to close the gap, and grabbed hold of that chain with his right hand. At least now, he wouldn't get cleaved through the back by that shield anymore.

Arla | May 11 2015 - Felix Norwood & Snowflake -
Felix snarled, leapt then lashed at the Pursuers turned back. The Pursuer was losing focus, speed and accuracy; the three things that made it possible for Felix to simply dodge and watch as the shield smashed into the door behind him, making it impossible for anyone to open it without the proper amount of manpower.
Snowflake pulled out one of the throwing knives and clashed with the Pursuers blade. She hated swordfights, but he didn’t give her much choice. Despite him getting shot, then stabbed in the shoulder, he was strong enough to make her stagger two steps backwards, closer to the edge of the roof. The gun in her other hand fired again, close-range, this time at his other shoulder.
She sent Crimson an annoyed look and glared back at the Pursuer. Please, just kill this bastard.
Felix seized his sudden attack at the sound of the bike horn combined with the thump of a heavy motorbike landing on the roof, and twirled around to grab the Broker’s extended arm. As he did so he yelled out something he hoped would confuse the Pursuer, he still remembered the stare competition between the two of them earlier: “Thank you High Chancellor!!”
Felix’s shout surprised Snowflake, before she yelled back:
“What?! You’re not leaving with him!“
“Later, Flurry!”

Adam | May 11 2015 - Crimson -
As Snowflake was gradually backed to the edge of the roof, Crimson saw the look in her eyes; a look he'd seen many times before; "Please, just kill this bastard."
"Don't have to ask me twice." Crimson remarked under his breath, slinging up his right and firing a single shot while standing around a metre away from The Pursuer, returning his left pistol into its holster to clutch at another hilt on his back, under his jacket.

- The Broker & The Chaser -
Felix was on the bike and the vehicle flew off the roof and back onto the road. The Broker grunted slightly in pain during the landing as he continued to drive the two wheeled machine. "Was the High Chancellor thing necessary Felix? Yelling my identity? Now what can I do if the police heard that? There is only one High Chancellor in the county, so now there is the possibility that there is a big red target on me." He landed on the highway and sped towards the meeting point. "You sure?" "Yes." The Broker took a deep breath, his eyes were fading, he needed to stay awake. Good opportunity to do just that. "A famed killer, a mercenary company, and a woman on fire. How does it feel to have failed your tasks. You try to kill the entire council, fail, you tried to kill me a few times, fail, and even now when I am out of my comfort zone, you still fail. And even now you try to catch me out by trying to use my technology against us, such a shame. And now you run away like you always do, picking a fight with the weak ones because you cannot accept failure. We're several steps ahead of you, and we will find you.
Claudia kept up her work. Jonathan got Felix, Jason and Luke had split up, and she was monitoring communications. The screen blinked up. "WARNING: 3RD PARTY INTERFERENCE DETECTED". Not right, she started the trace, and found the source. "Jonathan, you might want to have a chat with your friends in the sky, they can hear us right now." She started to type more code, more information, and started planting the bugs needed. "You sure?" "Yes." The Broker took a deep breath, his eyes were fading, he needed to stay awake. Good opportunity to do just that. "A famed killer, a mercenary company, and a woman on fire. How does it feel to have failed your tasks. You try to kill the entire council, fail, you tried to kill me a few times, fail, and even now when I am out of my comfort zone, you still fail. And even now you try to catch me out by trying to use my technology against us, such a shame. And now you run away like you always do, picking a fight with the weak ones because you cannot accept failure. We're several steps ahead of you, and we will find you." Bug planted, and Claudia terminated the communications. She pries open the computer harddrive and smashes the drive. She took in a sigh of relief but knew that there would be reinforcements soon. Backup computer, tapped into Jason and Luke. "Jason, Luke, I'm heading towards a different location. We're likely going to get into some trouble, we've got some weapons at the back, you guys mind manning them?" The communication had cut out, and Broker knew what that mean, though his eyes were still fading. He took out his earpiece and crushed it. "Felix.....don't suppose you know on-the-fly surgery do you?" The boy was gone, and it was the High Chancellor who picked him up. He does have some questions, but first he had the situation to deal with. The gunshot struck his other shoulder, though this was expected. His grip was losing strength, and the reinforcements were stalled by his shield. He gritted his teeth, and took some steps towards the female with most his strengths. - Frequency -
Frequency took her time to observe. "It's gone....but it still present somewhere."
She looked around, a roof garden, flowers, trees, grass, but most important of all, gravel.
She led out a low hum to levitate the gravel in a disk, and with one quick sound of a higher pitch, the gravel shot in different directions. "If it's still around, one plink should give Sonar the means to find those guys."

Arbor117 | May 11 2015
- Hammerfist -
"I'm moving, guys." Jason called, jogging at some speed across the city. He was using the rooftops to avoid the general popualtion. "What guns are we dealing with? I don't exactly know how to use a large gun. To be fair, I don't really know how any of you lot do!" Clearly his friends had learned to use military grade firearms. For some reason. The VTOL had already pulled far out of the heroes reach before the little songbird had her plan. Still, Reaver was severely pissed off, especially after that little phone call. "He thinks he's won, does he?" She spat. "I'm not letting him off that easily. Nariko, tell me you have something before I have to go kill his puppy or something." The merc chuckled. "I've got somthing better. That speed kid is cut off, moving to regroup." She stood and grabbed her rifle. "Excuse me for a second." Jason jumped a the street and landed with unsual grace for aman of his size, continuing his roof top journey. And then his leg exploded into agony. He stumbled and fell, looking down in shock and dismay at his shattered limb. He stumbled up, wildly looking around, and his other leg burst in a crimson spray. His skin went as white as a blizzard as he fell to his knees. "Broker..." He gasped. "I'm... Fucking hit..." He looked up to see a woman drop from out of no where. A blade in one hand, a gun in the other. Her. "It's... Reaver." - Reaver -
"Nice shooting Nariko!" Reaver's exulted, noting the silenced firearm's devastating impacts. She allowed the VTOL to pull up as she leveled her gun. She keyed the comm channel the Broker has messaged her on. "So, I've got your boy. Fancy a negotiation before I paint the ground with his sadly limited brains?" - The Speaker -
Ragno smiled widely. "Oh, she's fantastic! A little rough around the edges but I think she knows how to save this city. It really is lovely to see the youth getting involved and solving issues that the old like myself can only dream of fixing. Warms my heart." - Argent Mind -
"This body is not yours, Daniel." Argent Mind sighed, sweeping the vines aside. "You've been weakened by... Her as it is. Don't start thwarting everything against me."
