[hr][h1][i][color=Aqua]Jennifer Marissa Caspin[/color][/i][/h1][sub][@ToadRopes][/sub][hr] Yeah... yeah... Pokemon. Just distract herself from her best friend about to go head to head with a sociopath. She didn't know. Part of her wanted to go back and drag Meifeng off, but she felt better with Ratchet. She seemed to be less keen on fighting Aiden, and thus, she felt a bit more comfortable with her. Though, what caught her attention was a bike suddenly breaking off it's chain and flying square at Aiden. She jolted, and her eyes were wide. Jennifer quickly looked around for a perpetrator. [i]... A Metahuman had to be behind that.[/i] She thought to herself. With the amount of Metahumans in this city, she wondered just who in this crowd could have been behind it. Though, she was more concerned about her friend than anything. Ratchet tried to reassure her, but there was that welling feeling in her gut that this was about to get a lot uglier. "I... hope she's fine. I... just don't like violence. Especially for stupid reasons. Ugh." Jennifer shook her head. "We could have avoided all this if we just turned around and walked away...." Yeah, but who listens to Jennifer? It seems Meifeng and company are far more concerned with proving a point than, say, worrying about the ramifications of their actions. If NEST gets involved, or someone gets hurt in the crossfire, Meifeng might get into some real trouble. Worst of all, Meifeng never told her she [i]was[/i] a metahuman. "... but, let's wait for Meifeng, this doesn't feel right...." [hr][h1][i][color=Green]Michelle Brianna Gallus[/color][/i][/h1][sub][@Maxx][@SepticGentleman][@He Who Walks Behind][/sub][hr] The urge to roll her eyes was [i]so[/i] great that Michelle just couldn't resist it. That Carl guy. Michelle downed some more Hennessy, and didn't say a word. Because of Carl, the group went from fun stories to the [i]horrors[/i] of the job! Well, if Carl had a clue, he'd realize that they're trying to get [i]away[/i] from that, just for a second. Eh. No problem, Sam got it - thus, he talked about a story where he was back in Mendel, fucking up some Skulls. He apparently fought a giant Skull with super strength - that took himself out. She laughed for a bit - but went silent once she noticed, from his stories, that Sam, and his KINGFISHERS, gets out-muscled [i]a lot[/i]. Where Michelle can fight those who rely on brute strength with ease, but has trouble with some of the trickier powers. She saw a bit of a contrast between them. Though, before she could even bring that up, little miss mysterious walked out, and came back in a few minutes later with a communicator. Michelle perked up, as there was mentions of an impending fight by the Crystal Shores between some Metahumans. Ooooooooh boy... This has to be the work of some kids. Michelle has seen it a thousand times before. She stood straight up, and quickly downed what was left of her alcohol. She wiped her mouth, and shown a large teeth-baring grin. She slammed the (now empty) bottle on the table. "You KINGFISHERS ready what NEST is [i]really[/i] about?" Michelle asked. It was pretty obvious who she was asking. "Probably just some kids who don't know how to act - none of you even have to do anything; all I have to do is walk up and they'll [i]know[/i] they fucked up." Michelle was referencing her size, and how intimidating she was to normal people - even Metahumans. She took a few steps back, and started walking towards the door. She raised a finger towards the bartender, and shouted, "Give those wings I ordered to someone else. NEST tab!" Michelle quickly walked out the door, and walked over to her black Humvee. She choose that truck because she needed something big. There's no way she'll stuff herself into some tiny sedan. She pulled out the keys, and pressed the unlock button, and climbed inside. The others have their own rides, and if Carl wants to hitch a ride with her, she would push him out while she's driving. Michelle turned the ignition... and turned on the radio.... [hider=Song Michelle's playing][youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkOJ9uNj9EY[/youtube] [sub]4 u maxx[/sub][/hider] ... And she was off, Michelle hit the gas pedal and went straight for the beach. She, and the rest of NEST, would be there in no time. [hr][h1][i][color=Orangered]Maxine Mariah Carter[/color][/i][/h1][sub][@He Who Walks Behind][/sub][hr] Getting slapped on the ass was unexpected (and unappreciated, given all the other times people put their hands on her ass without her consent). Maxine put her hands on her behind, and quickly realized what happened. She went from surprised, to giggling. "Hehe... thanks sister." Maxine said, sarcastic. Lynn was already walking off, and Maxine said to her, "I'll give you a call if I come up with anything too." At least Maxine gained her first alley in all of them. Could they pull a score this big on the Fiends alone? Probably not. At best Lynn's tiny ass could make a good meatshield. Now, that isn't to say that Maxine is going to stop here. She'd rather take the easy route out of this city, than sit on another corner. And it'll only be a matter of time before another incident pops up like that one in Knightdale Rows. Only next time, she won't dodge in time. Maxine shook her head - trying to get those thoughts out of her head. [i]You'll make it out alive, Maxine. You're too tough for that.[/i] Maxine thought to herself, as she pushed the door open to the Kushi Bar.
