Wait that doesn't sound right[/center][/color] [@Blazion][@Prosaic][@Crazytazer][@Shard][@Delta44] [hr] [color=orange]"-a few cool trick. Hah! That's a good one!"[/color] Dawn was actually wiping a manly tear of joy from his eye with how funny Josieah was. Every time he opened his mouth he sent Dawn into side gripping hysterics. Then again he was easy to please. As luck would have it, the two of them exiting the cafeteria had seen their allied team mate, Shift was making her way down the hall towards them. Dawn raised his hand to grab her attention but immediately paused, remembering what happened the last time they met. He remembered she frightened easily. [color=orange]"One sec friend."[/color] He spoke to Blizz in an uncharacteristic whisper. [color=orange]"The Dawn has a wrong that needs a Rightin'.[/color] Dawn ducked back to the cafeteria, disappearing for a few seconds before storming back out. There was something cupped in his massive hands and he took a deep breath before he walked straight up to Shift. He kept his head up, his lip stiff and he finally seemed to lower his head and outstretched his hands to her. He was holding a cupcake. Vanilla Icing with one of those little red cherries atop it with sprinkles. The breading itself was chocolate. [color=orange]"It is the cupcake of apology Shift."[/color] He said, his volume almost comparably normal. [color=orange]"The last time we met I scared you, and I am sorry for that. It would be an honor if you could give me another chance."[/color] He couldn't meet her in the eye during this whole, down right odd display of humility. [color=orange]"We are going to go train, and it would be righteous if you would join us."[/color] She could tell he wanted to speak outloud and it was killing him to be so calm. [hr] When Sleeper got back to him on the line while Dawn made his way to the gym via the elevator, he put his fingers to his ear and began pacing the small space. [color=orange]"Aww come on Sleeps, don't make me beg now."[/color] he began, responding to how Sleeper seemed he was going to just watch them. [color=orange]"Fighting or not, keeping up a healthy lifestyle is great for your mood, your heart, your libido. Everyone needs a proper diet, exercise, and a good nights rest."[/color] He suspected that Sleeper didnt really get enough of that last bit either. Dawn looked at the lobby and the people below. [color=orange]"Besides, you don't fight, but what if the fight comes to you Sleeper? I already messed up when Shrike, Victory, maybe even Witness getting hurt. I don't want anything happening to you. Being tough enough to not get hurt is always worth it for heroes like us. Best be prepared."[/color] Dawn hoped that Silas would see the wisdom in this, and atleast put in the effort. [hr] They got to the gymnasium just in time to be introduced to their newest combat compatriot, or should it be said, their new feline friend. In fact, the cat went about a rather huge display of grace, acrobatic skill, and general flexibility. Dawn could swear he barely him, her... it! And he had such a catchy voice for a catchy tune. Dawn got super excited, bapping Blizz with the back of his hand. [color=orange]"By George Washington's Beard! I love this song!"[/color] Dawn then started bopping his head and wiggling his hips from side to side as he tapped his feet. He did not have near enough rythmn as the cat did but he didn't really care. It then intensified as he felt the livacious [color=orange]"I need a hero- I'm holding OUT for a hero til the morning light! UMPH AH!"[/color] He tried in great vain, and god bless him for trying, he was attempting to pull of some backstreet boy manuvers where he stood, feeling the music but being a bit off and emphasizing his favorite words. He duck faced and winked, thinking himself smooth.[color=orange]"He's gotta be LARGER than LIFE!"[/color] He then introduced himself. He laughed heartedly putting his fists on his hips and held out a hand. [color=orange]"Sup indeed Onyx! That was a GLORIOUS display of provocative performance of pure puss prowess!" He put a giant hand over his shoulder. [color=orange]"I hope I can keep you!"[/color][/color] [hr] Then much to his surprise, the new member of his team. [color=orange]"Thats over half that showed up for practice. A NEW RECORD! GO TEAM EPSILON!"[/color] He gave a peace sign in with a proud grin to her. [color=orange]"Welcome Decibel sorry you missed out on the JUSTICE this morning!"[/color] He then set about to getting the gymnassium ready when Dec got everyones attention. Dawn seemed positively delight almost squeeling. [color=orange]"HAH! It's cool Decibel!"[/color] Dawn laughed when she immitated him with long loud howls and he played along turning on his comm. [color=orange]"I TOTALLY WILL!!!"[@CaptainSully] [h3]DRAAAAIIIGGG GET DOWN HERE AND HAVE SOME FUN!!![/h3][/color] He screamed loud enough to make the room reverberation and echo with his words. Then Decibel did her rounds and it turns out she was getting awfully close to sleeper. [Color=orange]"Looks like Shrike's got another ship to write! HAHAHAH! I knew you had it in you Sleeper! Remember what I said about Libido!"[/color] He laughed at Silas obvious discomfort. [hr] When they were all assembled, Dawn, taking off his stupid gray uniform stood in his full glory, the lights silhouetting him. He looked even bigger somehow. [color=orange]"Alright! Team, Horizon, my compatriots of Truth Justice and more JUSTICE! You fought admirably and well! Just seeing you here, the pinnacle of the Greatest of Heroes, makes me cry manly tears of joy! Now then...."[/color] He turned and went to drag a massive crate that at first was assumed to carry sports equipment. [color=orange]"Now then, the greatest of heroes, deserves the greatest of training sessions!"[/color] He ripped off the top of the crate, letting the metal slab drop to the ground with a massive thunk that echoed through the room. [color=orange]"To work on our stamina, we run a single mile. To work on our legs, IRON MIKES for 100 meters. To work on our arms, 100 PUSHUPS! To work on our looks 100 SITUPS! And finally to work on our skills, I grabbed a few somethings from the war room...[/color] With two massive thrums, Dawn had grabbed two things, two massive pieces of metal by their heads and slammed them down in front of him. [url=https://tord.mmo-fashion.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/2017/05/PrtScr-capture_3.png]The Robots[/url] from the war room, meant to act as the enemy at different weapon and power settings from normal to the powers of a superhero, giving even Dawn a run for his money. They powered on as he held them out, Dawn himself getting a sadistic grin across his face, punctuated by the fact that he had no pupils. [color=orange]"A showdown with one of these bad boys, increasing in difficulty at every interval! And then we do it FIVE MORE TIMES!!!"[/color] He cackled maniacally.
