David was amazed. Frustrated, but amazed. "Who knew New York City was so BIG? I'll never find the SUPER head quarters!" Soon enough though, he spied a group of people walking towards a building that towered into the sky. "Hey, you guys! Is this the SUPER head quarters?"
"Yes, it is! Are you a super?"
"Sure am!"
"Great! Entrance is right in there. You sign in at the front desk. See you at training!" They smiled and walked inside.
"Well... here goes nothing!" and David slowly entered the building.

Rainbow smiled at Tara. " Yes, I am in the program. What language do you speak? " Rainbow looked at her shoes " I dont know either... do you see anyone who can help?? "

sharkout • 11 April 2013 at 10:15 PM

@ems get over here you'll love this role-play! 😉 😃

purrclan • 11 April 2013 at 10:23 PM

Tara returned the girl's smile. "I am from France, I know not English very well. I will...I will learn." She frowned. "No, I see no one..." Suddenly, she facepalmed. "Bien sur, c'est New York, il y a des taxis...Euh...Zis is New York, taxis would know where ze Program is, yes?" She coughed. "I apologize for...my bad English, I been to England once and America never before."

@purrclan Just a quick question before I fill out the forum, what does the power need to be? For example, is having the power of magic too vague? 😊

rainbowrocks • 11 April 2013 at 10:32 PM

@purrclan

" Its ok, I was from Great Brittan so I under stand people dont talk the same language. " Rainbow frowned. She jumped when she heard a car. Rainbow got happy. Suddenly the weather went from dreary to sunny in a flash. " LOOK! ITS A TAXI! " Rainbow called it over. She held up the paper she got from the program. It had directions. " To... erm.. Oak and Green? " she said. In only 20 minutes they were in front of the building.

purrclan • 11 April 2013 at 10:33 PM

@sstwins
Yep, that's too vague 😋
It can be a broader thing, like controlling weather/super strength/whatever, or it could be more specific, like Tara's painting. It can be as cliche as you want 😋
If it was like floating things, that would be like telekinesis. If it was controlling animals, it would be controlling animals. Magic is a really wide range of things, especially since magic in some stories can be very different than in others. 😋

sstwins • 11 April 2013 at 10:34 PM

@purrclan I knew it would be too vague. 😉 I'll work on revising it, and post my forum in a bit!

Tara gazed up at the skyscraper, then turned to the girl beside her. "You are nice..." she began, "and I would like to be friends wiz you, but...I know not what you are, hero or villain. I zink you too nice to be a villain, but I zought not I would..." She sighed. "I was...I was...I know not ze correct word...Zey told me I was to be a villain. If you are one also, zen we can be friends - I would like zat very much - but if you are a hero, I know not ze rules as to if heroes and villains are...are allowed to be friends wiz each ozer..." A wry smile briefly crossed her face. "Zere are too many T-H's in your language, zey are hard to say right."

David walked up to the man at the front desk. "Ummmm... is this the place where you sign in? I'm a super.... umm... so..."
"Oh yes. Name?"
"David Jackson Peters."
"Good. Do you want a roommate?"
"No!"
"Hmmmm... ok then. Second door on the left is where you'll be staying. Feel free to fit it to your liking. Come down at 6: 30, all the supers are going to be interviewed. Thank you."
David looked into his apartment. "Meh. Needs some improvement."

@purrclan

Sorry I had to go to sleep.

Rainbow looked at Tara. "Im a hero... " she frowned. She liked Tara. " Maybe, we COULD be friends, just not tell anyone. " Rainbow ran in the building.

" Hello. " Someone at the desk said. " Who are you? "
"Rainbow Star... " She replied.
" Oh hi Rainbow. Ready to train? "
" Umm... sure, but I sorta need a room.." she said, holding up her bags.
" Yes, of course. "
" Thanks. "

Rainbow was walking up the stairs. She saw a few people.
" Heh, look Jack! Its Rainbow! " a teenage boy said.
" How`d she get here? " a boy replied.
" Shut up. " Rainbow said. TRYING to keep her cool...
" Rainbow, your never gonna fit in. "
" I SAID SHUT UP! " And she suddenly lost it. She shot out a ray of sunshine.
" HOLY CHEESE JACK RUN! " And they were off.

Rainbow was up in her room. She was unpacking her stuff and putting them in a closet. She rethought what happened on the stairs. " Do I have another power...?? "

meixiaotian • 12 April 2013 at 4:43 PM

Eclipse glanced up from her home. Oh, a bunch of new Supers... That would be certainly fun. They would learn her name, and she would... Well, there'd be plenty more to do. Of course, she'd have to be cautious. Once they understood what exactly they were doing... The mission she was about to go on would not be disturbed. Not yet.
Her mind opened up to the memories of others. Recent, and being made ones floated on the surface, fuzzy, yet easily accessed. She left with her clothes in a bag, looking like she was off to the library, or somewhere else. She felt a few people notice her. Sympathy was always combined with most of their memories. Yes, she was the poor, jobless orphan who lived in the building. She had to deal with it, until she was officially an adult, and could disappear easily, or at least not be looked in on by some annoying person every week. It would only be in a few days. She could disappear then.
Eclipse swiftly found a taxi, and sent it close to her target. She watched outside, through the mass of people, a few heroes or villains go about.

purrclan • 12 April 2013 at 10:54 PM

Tara shrugged. "Maybe we could..." She followed Rainbow into the building and met the person at the desk.
"You are?"
"Tara Juliette Dubois. Or Acrylique, or Acrylic."
"I see. Do you want a roommate?"
"Yes."
"Third door on the right, then."
"Actually, is...are we...are heroes and villains...can zey share rooms? Is zat...can zey do zat?"
"Yes, as long as they remember that battle is not permitted in the building. Why?"
"Can I room wiz Rainbow, zen?"
The man nodded. "Certainly. To your right is a stairway; go up one flight. After that, it's the ninth door on the left."
Before following his instructions, Tara smiled at him. "Merci beaucoup."

She dragged her suitcases up the stairs and rushed to her room; pulling out the room key, she unlocked the door and entered the room. "Rainbow! I can room wiz you!" she shouted.

Hannah walked inside. "Hi i'm a super." she said to the lady at the front desk.

"Name?"
"Hannah Hawkins"
"Third room on the left on the second floor."
"Thanks."

Hannah walked off and suddenly realized her sweater was open and sliding down her arms. She frowned when she noticed her scar was showing. Some boys laughed at her. "Idiots." she muttered under her breath. She sped down the hall, into her room and locked the door. She unpacked, modified everything to her liking and smiled. Now to make some friends. She walked down the hall and knocked on the first shut door she saw.

purrclan • 13 April 2013 at 12:04 AM

Tara cautiously opened the door, hearing a knock. "Bonjour?" she asked, thoughtlessly slipping back into French.

@purrclan sorry 😋

Rainbow gasped seeing Tara. " Tara... we can room together?? " Rainbow was SUPER happy. All the sudden, outside got very sunny and bright outside. " Oops, my bad. " Rainbow said.

Hearing a knock at the door was strange. Rainbow and Tara were not even settled in! " Hello... " Rainbow said carefully.

meixiaotian • 13 April 2013 at 9:38 AM

A black haired figure slipped into a large library unnoticed. She was cautious, and some might have their memories examined by another who knew she came from this building today. It was no problem to take out a single figure among many others. She headed to a bathroom, where, in a small stall she put on her normal gear, then pulled over the outfit she had come in. A bit odd, but again, nobody could notice her. Some might be immune. With the new Supers, she couldn't be sure.
Eclipse strode to her target, a large business building. She had been hired to kidnap the CEO's daughter. He had offended her client or something. Whatever he had done, it didn't matter. Her client would probably ransom her, maybe blackmail him. No business of hers.
She went into yet another bathroom, this time leaving her normal clothes in her gray bag, and simply dropped it in the bathroom. She strode out happily, feeling more natural than she had before.
Eclipse maneuvered up the stairs silently, taking away any memory the people downstair had of her. She had slipped in the shadows, but more than one had been alarmed to see what seemed to be the assassin, Eclipse. Well, all who saw now forgot, so she safely managed to get up to the top level.

@purrclan please excuse the random capitals 😋 I'm on an IPad.

Hannah, realizing the girl was French, Used the French she knew very well since she had grown up in Montreal. "Bonjour! Comment ca va?"



*Hello! How are you?

meixiaotian • 13 April 2013 at 10:11 AM

@purrclan
On the second letter, it says, "You are required to choose a superhero name for yourself." That's the villain letter.

The real interesting time began now. She managed to go down the hall three yards before a security guard intercepted her.
"You are not allowed to be up-" Her eyes widened when she saw Eclipse's outfit. Then widened some more as she realized who this was. Panic ran through her mind for a second. During that second, her realization was thrust out of her.
Eclipse's whip came out, and smacked down upon the security. She hit her with the handle, and she was out cold. Excellent work. Her power was still ready, and she took out the memory the commotion from everyone who had it, including the guard.
Her black figure strode down the mostly empty hall, devoid of people. Her mind stretched out, seeking... There! A young figure, female, happy to be with her daddy, but slightly bored and coloring. Oh, lovely. Straight ahead, with one more security agent, and her father. A few people were in the rooms along the hall. They were of little to no consequence. Only people who would witness, but not remember.
She looked through the memories, finding what she wanted. The security cameras were on her left, one door down. She had managed to continuously wipe their memories of seeing her on the cameras, but recordings would not forget. They mattered very little to her, yet this wasn't a basic task, where she could be in and out in a second.

purrclan • 13 April 2013 at 10:15 AM

@meixiaotian
Yeah, well, the people in charge don't even take the time to write original letters 😋
It's the same thing every time, except for name and side 😋

meixiaotian • 13 April 2013 at 10:23 AM

@purrclan That must be confusing to villains.
James Anderson, you have no idea how to write a letter, do you?

She opened the door casually, none would think anything off if they weren't in there. The two managing the cameras looked at her. With a few kicks, dodges, memory rips, and whip marks, she had them down, and nobody heard a thing. She went over to the computers, and simply kicked the bottom. Se searched the guards' memories for how to open it. She could feel their memories when in their minds, but only her thoughts and memories remained when she left. This was slightly tedious. It wasn't hard, finding a place to open it, and then rip out some random wires. It might not work, and still show her. That didn't matter to her. The guards were her real goal.
She went back out into the hallway, closing the door, and casually walked over to the last door, where nothing had happened. She opened the door, and before anyone could say something, she spotted a window. Yes! She ran forward, and hit them all with a whip. The girl started crying. Her power continued taking out small bits of information from the everyone witness to her noise, and, with some random rips of information from the adults, had them down and unconscious. She turned to the child, and knocked her out as well, with less force.

purrclan • 13 April 2013 at 10:33 AM

@meixiaotian
Definitely 😋
And who says he actually writes them? xD

meixiaotian • 13 April 2013 at 10:38 AM

@purrclan True...
James Anderson, you have no idea how to find people who know how to write a letter, do you?

No doubt some were feeling confused, with random bits of information suddenly disappearing from their brains. By now, she needed to make her escape. She wondered for a second, how to disguise a person? This was her first kidnapping, after all...
Eclipse ran over and opened the window. Nope, nothing below it, except for another building. Beautiful. Her dark eyes scanned the room. Was there anything she could hide in, or hide someone in? Her eyes landed on a couch. Oh good grief.
She walked around, and spotted nothing. Time was running out, people would notice, security would come. She remembered briefly, a story that involved climbing down a large building with a bunch of bedsheets holding someone up. Oh great. She tossed two of those things on the couch (you know, those pillow stuffing thingys) out the window onto another building. That building had a convenient stairway down into the building. Her power once again, erased all memories of her odd behavior, but it was starting to become tired. her target was left in the room as she oh-so-casually walked down into the recording area, erasing memories as she went. She grabbed a box, for one thing or another, and brought it back to her target.
The girl was put into the box, and tossed out the large window. It was slightly humorous to see the box, with a girl inside, fall onto the pillows, then roll off. Oh drat. She jumped after the girl, making sure nobody remembered anything falling out of that window.

purrclan • 13 April 2013 at 10:39 AM

@meixiaotian
Nope, he doesn't xD

meixiaotian • 13 April 2013 at 10:52 AM

@purrclan
Shame. A true shame.

Eclipse decided she would not do kidnapping, unless her client was conveniently close to her target. She sighed. The box was closed, and being dragged slowly down the stairs of the next building, which was a laundromat. When she made it to the first floor, she erased confusion and recognition, once again, and asked politely for nobody to open the box.
Her legs dashed back into the first building, the bathroom, and her bag, also left untouched. Yes, kidnapping = hard. Worse than stealing. She dressed into completely normal wear, and walked slowly back to the building with her target. If she kidnapped again, even with convenience, she would ask for more money. Let them find some other person with better experience.
She sighed, and dumped the bag into her box, making sure no one saw it. Then, silently dragging her box, she exited.
Eclipse found a taxi, and asked the driver to take her one block away from her client. He was one she had done many things for before, one she trusted. Somewhat. Trust and criminal activity, they don't work together. One crumbles in the presence of the other.
Her eyes closed until the car reached its destination. She payed the driver, and lugged her box out. Not too heavy, just inconvenient to walk around with. If trying not to run into things. On the sidewalk, people gave her space, so it wasn't too much of a problem. Her power was activated again, covering her footsteps, when she went up to the apartment.
