[b]Los Angeles, Max Stross – Olympus Building[/b]

Max was pacing around before he got his next message and opened it up seeing the information his agents had sent him. Within minutes he was already up to the roof top and getting into a helicopter with two other Olympus agents and heading off towards Big Bear Lake.

He’d went from nothing to a license plate to the actual location of Elena Reese herself, and the thanks to his agents messing with the apartment footage the police wouldn’t be on her trail. [i] All of this is starting to work out nicely.[/i] Within the next hour he picked up his phone to call the female agent in the van that had delivered him the information to deliver some instructions.  Just as he was about to do this his phone began ringing and saw it was resources again.

“Hello? Yes I’m on my way to detain Reese right now..what? WHAT The FUCK?! How…damn it. Alright thank you see if you can do anything about this situation I’ll handle things on my end, we can’t mess this up.” Max hung up the phone and let out an exasperated sigh. [i] I can’t believe this shit she used her fucking credit card,  how reckless can you be, now we’re going to have to deal with regular law enforcement. [/i]

Max took his phone and called back the female agent who’d delivered the information of Elena’s whereabouts from the van. The other agents in the chopper didn’t even speak they could tell that Max was furious and none wanted to contribute to further angering him.  “Listen don’t wait on me, this situation just got more fucked up. Apparently Reese used her credit card at a nearby store to purchase something, which was a major red flag. There’s a Police/FBI joint task force coming there going to be there before me, get and detain Reese at all costs. I’d prefer we avoid conflict with the law but that dosen’t seem to the case, you know the drill, kill anyone in your way badge or not and don’t leave any witnesses. Once you detain Reese, transport her away from the area and I’ll pick her up and arrange transportation to the prison quarters for further interrogation.” Max hung up and sighed everyone in the chopper know knew what was making him angry.  [i] I’m this close, nothing is going to stop me from figuring out what happened at that high school. [/i]

…………………

A couple police cruisers and armored vehicles were pulling up in the area near the cabin area but not as close as the Olympus agents. One man in the FBI who appeared to be the head of the operation emerged from his vehicle in full body armor, as did some other heavily armed S.W.A.T. and police all drawing their weapons. They all were armed and had fire power, but their mission was one where killing the target was worst then letting her escape. “Alright you heard what the owners said, that cabin all the way over there, that’s where the owners said Reese is. She paid all cash, alright you know the drill, split up we move in from all sides, you’ve seen what type of power she has but even if she puts up resistance, DO NOT I repeat DO NOT kill her, any shot better be to the leg if possible. Due to the nature of her power it’s unknown how effective tasers are so use them at your own risk, now go!” The agent barked the orders, and they moved out armed with guns, and tranquilizers.

[b]Austin Texas, Diner – Peter Petrelli [/b]

Peter made his way inside at the same time as Noah and they both sat down at the booth as Angela looked at them frowning. “I’m assuming both of you have seen the news about our favorite cheerleader? Tragic, but then again she exposed us, Nathan was shot trying to tell people so it makes sense someone would be gunning for her as well regeneration or not.”

“Mom!” Peter was an emotional wreck from what he’d just witnessed on television and wasn’t in the mood to hear his mom talking about Claire in that way.  He looked towards Noah hearing a few thoughts from his head and shaking his head. “And before you ask I’m not changing it! The past is the past, every-time we fix it gets worst. It’s my fault things are even the way they are, it was my future self that came back and shot Nathan, he’d still be alive..if it wasn’t for me messing with time, he’d of been the President.” Peter’s voice quited down as he said the last part. Nathan’s death had really impacted him, and with everything bad that happened as a result of their tampering with time he wasn’t in the mood.

“Alright well my son’s spoken, surprisingly intelligent of you Peter, I’d have expected you to have already dived into the past to drag her off the stage. I’ve got some other news, I’ve been having dreams things are going to get worst. Today is the day things are suppose to get worst, something really bad is going to happen today, and Claire’s assassination the spokesperson for all of us, I think that equates to something really bad.” She said as she sipped her tea before setting the cup down. 

[i] Claire…[/i] Peter was still conflicted about everything that happened, he’d constantly warned her about getting involved and she never listened. “That’s definitely something bad, where’s Parkman? “
“He won’t be able to attend today, but he’s sending all the information he has about the testing facilities but I had a dream about the facility in L.A, somehow it’s connected to what happened to the high school, I’ve got some of our old Company contacts working on getting jobs at these facilities so we can learn the ins and outs, we have to get a handle on this situation because after what happened today it’s going to get a-lot more intense.” Angela said as she reflected upon what she learned from her precognitive dreams. She was skeptical that what was left of their company could really stop everything and as much as she was sad about Claire’s death she’d predicted something bad would happen to her since the day she jumped off that ferris wheel.

[b]Blaire Anderson, Los Angeles – California [/b]

Blaire changed the news back to the protest, listening as some reporter gave the mic to a person with a sign that says. [i]Evo’s are Evil.[/i]  “YO whoever did that shit was doing what the fuck needed to be done, these freaks can fly, shoot lasers, who knows what else there could be fuckers out there who can do something straight out of  a fucking movie not to mention what happened at the fucking school this.” Blaire reached for the remote and turned the TV off. “Fucking idiot, they think the high school was bad, that was a fucking warm up.”

Blaire had a sinister grin on her face as she made her way out of the drug dealers home into the streets of the suburban neighborhood she was in. “Let’s go.” She looked around at the neighborhood it was obvious everyone here had to have money and watched as a police cruiser pulled into the neighborhood making it’s way quickly over to the front of the house she was in. She raised an eyebrow as two cops emerged from the car drawing a gun. “Ma’am do you live at this residence.”

Blaire looked at the officer raising an eyebrow then shrugging. “Aye Senor maybe I do maybe I don’t leave me the fuck alone stupid pig.” She smiled knowing that comment would upset the cop who then pointed his gun at her.
“Get on the fucking ground, we’re here to investigate Juan Cortez, a suspected major drug dealer in the LA area, if you’re here then you’re a suspect as well. You heard me get on the fucking ground.”
Blaire just shook his head.” I’m tired of listening to stupid people trying to tell me what to do all day, enough is enough, I’m going to protest.” 

“Did you fucking hear me! GET on the fucking ground or I will force you down.” The cop barked orders at Blaire who looked at him only for his gun to being miniaturized. The cop stepped back in surprise staring at the Hispanic woman with confusion. “What the fuck did you do my weapon? Davis get the fuck out here this.”

Blaire took a deep breath and suddenly she was massively bigger. The cop stepped back in shock seeing the giant person now standing above him. She stepped on the cop and looked at the neighborhood below her.  “Ooooh yeah I’m definitely gonna protest.” She knew her voice could be heard around the area and she looked off in the distance to downtown LA which was no longer a far walk for her meaning she wasn’t far from the protestors.

The other cop was requesting for back up in the car but Blaire just stepped on the vehicle crushing it.  She laughed and began walking towards downtown intentionally stepping on some of the houses in the suburb as she began her walk. The sounds of the giant person as well as the damage to the surrounding houses caused people to begin rushing out of their houses seeing what was going on as she emerged from the neighborhood stepping into the streets squashing more cars.  [i]Ooooh this is like GTA but way more fucking fun![/i]

She laughed at the mayhem below in the streets as she began walking through traffic, with people emerging from their cars to run off the streets to avoid being killed. The sound of sirens was heard blaring in the streets nearby her as many had called the police, and a news helicopter was seen nearing her as she stepped through the streets towards where the protestors were at. “Hey guys! My name’s Maria and I’m here to give my opinion about the fucking protest! All of you fuckers need to be exterminated for fucking with people with powers,  cause we can fuck with you more.”

She spoke directing her voice towards the area of protesting where people seemed to be panicking while many abandoned their cars to flee the situation on foot, others tried to weave through traffic to get away from the area. The sound of the sirens grew louder to people on the ground level as she some police cruisers and armored vehicles were approaching.  “Ugh Really.” [i]What the fuck is that suppose to do?  There gonna try to arrest me? [/i]

She kicked at the cars sending them flying while also damaging other cars in her way adding to the panic in the area before turning to the news helicopter grabbing it and tossing it into a store laughing as it exploded. “Whew! Now for the main attraction.” She quickly went over to the crowd of protestors that was starting to disperse and began violently stepping on them while laughing. She looked to her left to see four police helicopters approaching shooting but she barely felt the bullets. “Come on now really? That is annoying!” She smacked one of the helicopters away then turned to the other two that seemed to be turning around.

“Uh uh it’s too late for you fuckers to learn.” She leaned over to blow on the rest of the helicopters, the winds sending one crashing into a nearby office building. She chuckled  breathing in accidentally inhaling one of the helicopters coughing as she punched away the other helicopter to the streets. She tripped on some cars falling back smashing into the building behind her bringing it down as she fell to the ground. “Fuck! “ [i] Note to self fucking helicopters are not edible. This was fun though, nothing like stomping on some racists for good stress relief [/i] She wondered if the blades had cut her but she didn’t feel any serious pain and just got up brushing rubble off her.  She looked around at the havoc she’d caused by attacking the protests, the sounds of both police and emergency personnel sirens blaring in the streets. Recognizing how much attention the situation was drawing she took off running not caring who was hurt as she took off from downtown. She quickly put some distance between her and downtown due to her size rapidly reversing to her regular size and calling Ryan. “Alright!  I got everything. I’m on my way to the car I’m gonna need to drop this look cause it’s gonna be all over the news. “ She spoke with pride about her attack on the protestors and the streets of L.A. 

Moving through the streets taking a short cut it wasn’t long before she was getting into Ryan’s car, leaningback in her chair. “Whew now that was fun, let’s go. .”

“See and you were worried I wasn’t going to be useful, I told you I’m bout my money.” Ryan started up the car and used his power focusing on Blaire to shift her appearance again as they pulled off. 

Blaire looked at her new appearance an Arabian woman with long brown hair. “Oooh I like it, come on let’s go, oh and stop by the store I told Elena I’d get some food and water.”
