RIP Stan Lee... You will forever be missed. As someone whose grown up reading Marvel comics, you've always have kind of been a part of my life. Thank you for making most of the Marvel heroes we know.

Bio

WIP I'm coming back after forever so clearing all of this seems like a good choice.

Just few basic things.

1. Left for my own sort of health reasons.
2. I ran a game for almost a decade when I stepped away from everything.
3. Currently working on getting an interest check up for the game I am going to hopefully be able to run.

All set, that's all for now.

Premise


OMEN is no more, as the organization has been taken down and its funding pulled, the money going back to be with SHIELD, where some may argue it truly belongs. With OMEN gone, things have been relatively quiet, safe, or at least it seems that way. Now tensions are rising, not just between the mutant and human populations, but among those at the mansion itself.

It took 2 months for the mansion to be rebuilt, everything had been destroyed except for the Danger Room and Cerebro, so there was a lot to replace. During those months the students from the school stayed at one of the many spare houses that Tony Stark has in New York. Though the rebuilding of their home, and the aftermath of OMEN’s downfall is the least of their concern right now.

There was one person who was keeping an eye on everything that involved OMEN, and the rebuilding of the school, and he laughed at just how close OMEN had been. Even though he was a mutant himself, he had been hoping that by sheer chance the organization would be able to take down the X-Men and the school before collapsing, but no. They hadn’t managed to do that, and now it was his turn to enter the spotlight and come out of the shadows.

5 years ago, a mutant by the name of Mesmero had managed to get a hold of the minds of several members of the original X-Men team, and had nearly succeeded in destroying them, before he was ultimately defeated by them. However, he had managed to get away and had just been biding his time until he could get his revenge, and now he knew just how to do it. With everything finally settling down, odds were that the old team was going to gather in order to discuss all that had happened, and he was counting on that.

Not to mention he knew exactly how to do it, and he was hoping to see the two teams rip each other apart.

GM Note

This arc, the main villain is Mesmero, a man with the powers of telepathy and mind control. If he controls your character, your character will be given a task, it'll be somewhat vague about what exactly it is, and it will be up to you to go through and figure out how best to do that task. If anyone has any sort of problem with this, message me and we can talk about it.

  • I will send you a PM saying that you are being controlled, and no one is to know about it. Plan on keeping it as a surprise until more people are controlled.
  • You will be given vague instructions on what your mission is, so that way it doesn't seem like I am controlling everything that you do or something.
  • Anyone with more than one character will at the least have one person controlled, and one person not, this is to help even out the fighting and things like that.
  • There are chances that your character can break free, I will ask for any possible way for that to happen from you, just in case those specific circumstances are met. However note that Mesmero will learn, and he might alter his instructions to your character to avoid those scenarios.
  • Watch your PMs, as I can change what your "instructions" are on a whim, they are not set in stone.


Our World

In the Abandoned Hope Universe, we have known that we were not alone in the world since 2012, due to the Incident. Aliens are real, powered individuals are possible, and anything else? It is the stuff of fiction, of Harry Potter novels and horror flicks. But of course, that is the public perception, largely due to the efforts of MI13, O.M.E.N., and S.H.I.E.L.D. The world just isn't ready to know about what else is real, causing the Altsoba Massacre to be deemed an event driven by religious paranoia and hallucinogenics. Nothing abnormal at all. Had the Incident been less public, it would have been covered up and hidden as well.

According to O.M.E.N. (the Organization for the Methodical Eradication of Necromantics), a being with supernatural and inhuman capabilities is called a necromantic. This can range from enhanced humans, such as Steve Rogers, all the way to the most darkest and complex of creatures, such as Azrael, the Angel of Death. And while this term is used in most government documents, there are other terms that are more specific and demonstrate improved understanding of the situation. The universe is a strange one, one that we can hardly understand.

Previously, any and all powers and abilities were simply referred to as deviances. If someone was perhaps a little odd, in that they could see things that others could not, perhaps that they could heal with a single touch, or that they were immune to flames, they were said to have a deviance. Years after the Altsoba Massacre, this definition was revoked and revised, as we realized that it is simply more complicated than that.

Deviances, as they are now understood, refer to (often) extraordinary abilities that distinguish someone from the average human. However, these are not differences on a biological or genetic level. While these can be small things, such as a sixth sense when it comes to healing and knowing what is wrong with the patient, it can be as dramatic as pyrokinesis. Deviances are a result of the shattering of the Cursed Flask in 1719, the shards which were recovered in 2018 by MI13. The flask's contents were said to grant immeasurable power, and with the contents mixing into the air in trace amounts, individuals can sometimes acquire slight abilities from exposure. There is currently no method of explaining why some people gain a deviance and others do not, however. This area of research is still relatively new.

Mutants, also called homo superior, are powered individuals who gain their abilities due to an X-gene. This gene is something that is simply part of their genetic makeup from birth. It can be activated when the individual is subjected to great stress, often during puberty or traumatic moments. It's important to understand that while a mutant's powers can be called a mutation, they were born mutants. They did not mutate throughout the course of their lifetime.

Mutates are those who, as the name implied, mutated to gain powers. This is often due to the presence of electromagnetic radiation outside of the visible spectrum. Encounters with radioactive waste would certainly qualify. It is possible for those with an X-gene to mutate when exposed to radiation or other materials, but it is uncommon and also effectively 'neutralizes' the X-gene.

Inhumans, also called inhomo supremis, are individuals who are descended by unfortunate souls who were experimented on and had their genetic code modified. This unorthodoxy in genetics can be activated through a process called terringenesis, in which the inhuman emerges from something akin to a cocoon with newfound abilities and powers.

Crystal Hanson
Location: The Forest


Crystal just rolled her eyes slightly at what Flynn had said about the culture. She found things like that interesting, and considering what her job kind of was, it would be interesting to experience anything like that first hand in her mind, but she said nothing about it out loud. Following after Flynn, she glanced around as she heard the sounds of the forest, and branches cracking under the weight of someone. It made her sort of glance in that direction, hoping to see who it was before they ran into them personally.

She relaxed slightly when she saw that they were children, but what they were saying was a bit difficult. Only a few things she was able to hear, but she did know what they had said roughly, and she nodded her head. "Yeah, I heard it... Or at least some of it. They were speaking Ancient Egyptian... I can only give a somewhat rough translation. They were talking about how one of the gods descended from the sky, a servant or something of their god Ba'al. And they were curious about the flying thing, which I imagine is a ship, that had landed in the middle of their village, which is where it is currently sitting..."

@FantasyChic@LadyRunic@Morose@Nallore@KazAlkemi


Mary wasn't too surprised by what Allison had said towards Jakobsen, it made perfect sense in her mind, to try and get Jakobsen to stand down, however, just telling him and yelling at him likely wasn't going to do the job, that much was obvious. Future Carolina had tried that tactic back at his office, and it hadn't worked at all. It made her start to think of something, before she noticed someone else who was with them, she must have been locked up in the facility. Jakobsen glanced over at Dean, and rolled his eyes slightly, finding the kid a bit annoying, and a bit of an idiot.

After a moment's hesitation, once everyone had gone outside, Mary went over to the silver haired girl and looked right at her. "Thalia? I know you aren't feeling the best from the looks of those wings, but maybe... Just maybe... Do you think you can show images of the future? Just so we can show Jakobsen what's going to happen..."

"...Maybe, though do you have a specific time era in mind? Like a year maybe? I need at least a ballpark number for stuff like that, and not to mention we all will see what is going on..."

She thought for a moment, thinking. Jade was pregnant now, with the kid that was going to basically be tortured or something, so a few years down the road then? "...Shoot for 2026..."

Thalia nodded, before she took a deep breath and looked right at Jakobsen. Suddenly there was a large clock that appeared above everyone who was outside, as the clock hands raced forward, images appeared in front of them, showing everything. Starting with Alcie, Jakobsen's daughter in the future. The little girl was cute, but that was besides the point. What happened in front of them was showing images of what was going to happen to the little girl in the future, what was going to happen.

Jakobsen stumbled backwards, seeing everything like that, however, that was going to be the least of his problems in a few seconds. The car door opened with a bang, and Jade stormed out of it, for she had seen everything too, and she threw her ring at him. "You bloody promised you arsehole, no kids!"

"I-I-I didn't know anything about that Jade, I swear. I told you about dealing with them, but damn..." he said, running a hand through his hair, he was looking like he might actually cry seeing that. A few of them had mentioned him having a kid in the future who was a mutant, but he never thought that if that was true he'd ever sink that low. He never wanted kids to get hurt, that was always his policy, especially since he knew that Jade was against it.

"It was your bloody robots that attacked that school, Alex! Ya promised me ya wouldn't let any kids get hurt!"

"You're right okay? That's on me! I never wanted any kids to get hurt! I can't control what everyone else does, I may be at the top of the organization, but you know I can't keep track of everyone!"

Jade shook her head, rubbing her hair as she tugged on it. "I can't even look at you, Alex! Your agents hurt kids and even if ya didn't know about it, that's on you! I....I can't do this, Al."

"You're right damn it! I told you I wasn't going to hurt kids, and it happened because of me!" he said, before he pulled out his phone and started dialing a number.

"I'm going to call a cab," Jade said.

"Wait Jade..." he said, before he put the phone to his ear, after a moment he started talking. "Hey, Ricky, put out a notice for everyone, news reports, I don't care what you do, but make sure to let every OMEN facility know this too, the organization is done, gone. Disbanded and hopefully will never make a comeback."

Jade looked at Alex and then she looked at the kids. She hoped her daughter was like the blonde girl - Allison. She had a strength to her she had to admire. "Ya said your name was Allison, right?" Jade confirmed. Alcie now had a middle name. She then looked back at her ex-fiancé. "Al..."

"Just leave it be Jade, I don't care anymore," he said, heading back to the car after he hung up the phone.

"....Alright."

"...Do you want to come with? Or would you still rather call a cab?"

"...I want to get these kids somewhere safe, Al."

"I get it Jade..." he said as he finally picked the ring up that she had thrown at him, slipped it into his pocket and got into the car.

Jade bit her lip slightly. He was the love of her life.

"Uh... Ms. Cornish?" Mary spoke up, walking over to her, "You don't need to worry, we can get everyone out of here pretty easily, we also have the help of Tony Stark in getting a place to stay for everyone while the mansion is rebuilt. So don't worry, everything will be fine, especially because of what Jakobsen just did. Never thought I'd speak in favor of the guy but sure, the problem will never be completely gone, but... Because of him, there was a big step in the right direction to stop things like this from ever happening again."

"I'm going to stay until someone else gets here to take you all in - you kids shouldn't be alone here."

"Well, Richard technically shouldn't count, but he's kind of the chaperone, not to mention we've got a SHIELD agent with us too. And a lot more of us are adults than you think, though just barely qualifying for that one... We'll be okay..."

"....Alright," Jade said, figuring she'd have to call a cab

The car that they had come in was still there, Jakobsen seemed to be on the phone with someone at the moment. The driver was waiting for instructions, and Jakobsen got off the phone finally, putting it away. He glanced out the window at Jade, before looking away and leaning forward to tell the driver where to go.

Jade hesitated, before she wordlessly got into the car. Alex glanced over at her, looking away quickly before he leaned back, the car started and they started moving. Jade was quiet in the back seat, looking outside the window at all of the destruction and chaos that had occurred at the OMEN facility.

"...Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, Al."

"...Okay..." he responded, before he went to staring out the window.

Jade wasn't about to open up and talk to him. They had just broken up and her own father had sexually abused her as a child, and her mother abandoned her. When it came to kids, Jade was fierce and wanted to protect them from the dangers of the world. The vision of the future that Thalia and Allison had described...

"...I'm sorry... I screwed up big time, and I know it..."

"You did," Jade acknowledged. She didn't know if she could forgive him - it wasn't something he had done to her, but to these children and in the future, her child...

"...I also know the odds of you forgiving me isn't very likely. So I get it if you want nothing to do with me... Was a little surprised you actually got in the car..."

"....It's a free car ride. Financial sense."

"Right... I remember that was the reason you told me for moving into my apartment at first," he said, smiling slightly at the memory.

Jade nodded slightly. "I was after your money, Al."

"Of course you were..." he said, chuckling slightly now.

Jade was still looking out the window, her hands clenched and her knuckles were white, as if she was on guard for an attack. "I don't want credit card debt."

"...I never lied to you Jade... I never wanted to hurt any kids... Before we got out of the car, I had told you that I wanted to make a difference... For the better... Guess I went about it in a completely wrong way..."

"....We aren't good people, Al. We're damaged. Only shit can come from that."

"...Maybe we still can make a difference... Prove that we can do good... Being damaged is what makes us who we are... And honestly I don't care if you call yourself damaged Jade... You aren't to me..."

"What am I to you, Al?" Jade asked, still looking out the window.

"...Someone I love and care about... And hope that maybe eventually I can earn your forgiveness... I don't want to lose you..."

Jade still didn't look at him, but she inched her hand towards his.

"...I love you Jade, and I always will, no matter what..."

She then held his hand, and Alex glanced over at her, giving her a slight smile, but he fell silent.
Back at the Facility After the Craziness


Mary turned to look over at the group who were all still there. Hearing Future Carolina's words, she just shook her head. "...He's gone, died protecting the three of us..." she said, motioning towards herself, Wanda and Sara, before she fell silent again, not really liking the memory of what had happened in her mind.

Pietro finally set Guin down, once he started getting a bit too dizzy. Wanda rolled her eyes at her brother, before a box of Twinkies appeared in his hand, and a few seconds later the box was completely empty and Pietro had regained some color in his skin. "...Thanks Wanda..."

"...Your welcome Pietro... And I have a small gift for you, if you are willing, call it an early birthday present of sorts..."

"...What is it? And should I be worried? This is a bit concerning not going to lie..."

She chuckled slightly, before she waved her hand, a small turtle appeared in his hands. He was a bit surprised, they never had had any sort of pets growing up, and he always had liked turtles, the irony being that the animal tended to be one of the slowest on the planet. "...For me?"

"Of course, you always have liked turtles..." she said with a smile.

Pietro instantly hugged the small reptile. "His name is Mr. Dibbles and is mine, no one else's," he said instantly, before he held the turtle up to Guin. "Look Guina, I got a turtle!"

Demetria had been paying more attention to what was going on, so she was almost startled by Annie's question. "Who, me? I've got to get back to DC, back to the underground, report in to Veil... Though you, well... I'd recommend you stick with these guys... The X-Men, and if anyone can help you feel at home, or get your life back together, I'd place my money on help from Charles Xavier. He's the one you should go see, go get help from. Stick with them, most kids we get from the underground we tend to send to the Institute anyway, so I think you're better off here."

What happened was just a swirl of actions and colors. She heard Tinley's words when she had come up to the roof, and what she had said when she pulled Nikolai away, and she heard Raynor yelling over the comms in a different language, but she knew he was talking to her, but that was it. The next thing she knew she was sucked into the tunnel, and everything around her started swirling. Nothing made sense where she was, or where she was going, but there wasn't much she could do.

Her mind couldn't focus, she couldn't see where she was, but all she knew was that she was alone. Or was she? It was hard to tell as she started hearing others, voices around her. It took her a few moments for her to recognize the voices as those of her older sisters. But that didn't make sense... Why would she hear them? They didn't exactly care much about her, especially when she proved how smart she was, and she hadn't talked to them since she left home. Nothing was making sense, her head spinning as she tried to focus on something, anything.

"Good luck with the power situation," Flynn nodded towards Cassandra. He decided that he was virtually going to ignore Harry, since the guy seemed like a know-it-all who thought he knew everything and that everyone else was stupid. He headed after Hawkeye, getting into the vehicle and heading towards the weird light show. It was crazy, seeing the building with some weird light looking thing on top of it, and it made him wonder what the hell was even going on there.

He heard Hawkeye's words about the situation being critical, and he nodded his head, "Understood sir... And I can see why we wouldn't want to be seen... Not to mention we need to be careful in general, otherwise who knows what can happen." After a few moments, he heard Cassandra's voice over the comms, and he let out a slight sigh of relief. Communications were back up it seemed, which was a good thing.

Queen Valda

Location: The Palace


Valda tensed up slightly, still with her arms around Myrus, and she stared right at Lyra. Did she just think she could give a direct order like that? She didn't have the authority to do that at all, and it pissed her off. It wasn't just that she was ordering her around, but ordering Myrus around as well. Her usually kind and carefree demeanor seemed to melt away, as she stared coldly at the woman. Her violet eyes devoid of anything other than anger, which was saying something as Valda wasn't usually one to easily get angered.

"I understand your concern Lyra," she said coldly, her tone of voice completely changed from when she had spoken to Myrus not too long before, "However, you do not have the authority to make any sort of order towards me or my brother, perhaps you need a reminder of that!" her words having a bit of a bite to them as well. She took Myrus' hand, and led him out of the room, away from any sort of danger that the room posed.

Sylvi the Bard and Bruce Banner


Location: Number 40 Alchemie Way


Sylvi was a little bit startled at Tate getting up like that, well, more of the fact that he had started screaming first. The flipping of the table was a bit unexpected as well, and she worried about him, wondering what was going through his head. This was not something she had seen happen before, that much was certain, and she edged back slightly. She wanted to be there for him, and he knew that the Sicknesse worried him, especially since it effected his sisters, but still. He was basically yelling at gods right now.

Lance went to stand right next to Runa, and whispered, "So... Apparently silver hair, super speed and the mental problems all are still around in the family..." This was not a good thing, at all. He'd seen more than one person from his past lose their minds and go completely crazy, and unfortunately one was from Tate's ancestry. If he was going mental, or having episodes like that, something needed to be done about it, that much was for sure.

Bruce looked at Tate as well now, this sort of thing was not a good thing. It was almost like he was trying to provoke them, and one thing was for certain, trying to get an anger response from his family was a really bad idea. "Tate, calm down, okay?" he said, looking at Tate. "The girls are fine, right now anyway... Don't do anything rash, we don't want something bad happening to you either..."

Sylvi nodded in agreement with what Bruce said. She didn't want Tate to go off by himself to do something, if something were to happen, there wouldn't be anyway for him to really get help unless someone was watching him constantly. At the moment, she was trying to stay calm, at least somewhat, but it wasn't very easy with Tate going off like that. He cared about his sisters, that much was obvious, but still, there wasn't much he could do about it. No one knew what the Sicknesse even was, or how to fight against it, what made him think he'd be able to figure it out.

"It'll be okay Tate, the twins are alright, and if my mother had been lying she would have literally snapped her fingers ensuring the twins' safety through this illness, it is what her powers are. Just relax, everything will be alright..."

"You are an idiot if you think we should just ignore that opening! If we don't do something, who knows what could happen!" she responded to Nikolai, shaking her head slightly. Though she knew that them being up there was probably a REALLY bad idea, but still. This thing wasn't something that they could just ignore, or walk away from, despite what others think. This opening in the quantum realm, there had to be a reason why they'd have opened it in the first place, but she couldn't figure out why, at least at the moment.

Hearing Raynor's voice over the comms, she was slightly hesitant to respond to him, considering where exactly she was at the moment. It made her start to wonder how he'd react if she told him, but she figured that she should respond, otherwise people might think she was dead or something, which would be a bad thing. "...Yeah, I'm here, currently I'm up on the roof, by the big swirly quantum realm tunnel gateway thing... We can't leave this thing open..." she responded into the radio, glancing over at Nikolai, before she looked once more up at the gateway.

He looked over at the two who were currently trying to piece together everything for communications. Things weren't going well clearly, and he partially wanted to smack McCormick over the head for that comment. Just because some people didn't know too much about electrical systems didn't mean that they were blind. Sure, they were fried, but still, didn't mean they couldn't find a much quicker solution to their problems involving it. Though he hoped one of them weren't going to even try to explain too much of the techno babble involved, that would just waste time.

Turning, he noticed what it was that Hawkeye had, and he couldn't help but be glad that they had something useful. He wondered if Stark had any other interesting bits of technology that would be interesting, or useful, for this current situation. Anything really would be helpful now that he thought about it. "We need to do something... And since communications are going to be down for a while, I say let's get going and meet up with the team."

@FantasyChic@LadyRunic@Morose@Nallore@KazAlkemi

Jakobsen was heading towards the facility right now, trying to figure out what the hell was even going on. The facility had gone quiet not too long ago, and they weren't able to get a hold of anyone there. Something was definitely wrong, but he didn't know what as he was trying to call the facility yet again, but unable to get through. Jade was sitting next to him in the car, watching an episode of the Office on her phone. She had one earbud in and the other out, that way her fiancé could talk to her if he wanted to.

"Something is going on there... Wonder what exactly it is... Can't get a hold of anyone..."

"Last time that happened, Hel arrived. Perhaps another demigod has come to have a temper tantrum - or the Brotherhood."

"Just what we'd need, another incident like that one..." he muttered, the images of everything that had happened at the OMEN HQ years before stood out in his mind. It was impossible not to think about that stuff, especially not right now.

Jade rubbed his knee slightly. "Whatever it is....I still get to complain more... Since I'm carrying a freaking baby in my stomach," she said, giving him a slight smirk.

Alex gave her a smile, "That is true... Sorry for dragging you along for this Jade..."

She shrugged. "Hey, your work can be interesting - and I used to do this sort of thing. You know, I had a real job sort of before I went back to following cheaters into alleys and taking photographs."

"That was also your choice Jade, you could have joined OMEN. But you wanted to go back to that sort of work, and I wasn't even going to try to stop you from that."

Jade had been offered to take over as OMEN's director after the Winchester brothers, the previous directors, disappeared. But she hadn't wanted the job. And now with her fiancé leading the organization, she had more of a reason to not want to join. She wanted to be independent. "No offense, love, but OMEN isn't my style - bit of a macabre name, too."

"Whatever you say Jade," he said with a slight laugh.

"Might as well have gone with the Grim as the organization mascot," Jade teased.

"I didn't have a say in what the agency was called, so don't blame me," he said, laughing now.

"You would have named it something really lame," Jade insisted, giggling. "Like...P.I.N.K. or something of the sort." She gave him a smile. "...You used to laugh a lot more when we started dating."

"Why would I name it that?" he said, laughing a little, before hearing her other comment. "Really? You think so?"

"Of course...I miss that - I miss my Alex."

"...Things change Jade, but maybe... Maybe I can see about leaving OMEN... Spend more time with you then..."

She raised an eyebrow. "OMEN isn't what's taking up your time, Al. It's the campaign - I hardly ever see you and if I do, we're stuck in front of cameras. And do you know how bloody hard it is to not cuss in front of them? I'm not naturally First Lady material - more like First Bitch."

"I honestly don't care if you cuss in front of them. I mean just look at who the current president is, an idiot who doesn't know what the hell he's even doing. He's said worse things in front of a camera than a few swear words if you ask me."

Jade laughed at that. "Yeah, he is an arse....But Al, I want you to do what you want to do - do what makes you happy, okay?"

"I just want to be able to make a difference... That's all I really want to do..."

@Nallore The agents outside are all still alive, but they definitely aren't going to be doing much of anything to fight against them at the moment. However, something else comes up the road to the facility. A black SUV, and once it stops, outsteps the one and only Alexander Jakobsen. He notices the agents and the carnage on the ground, before looking over towards the Quinjet, eyeing it a little bit.

@KazAlkemi Demetria causes the dome to disappear, more of fading into nothing, melting almost but it doesn't leave a trace. "I have no idea what that sound was. Now, down the stairs we go!" she says happily. Flynn rolled his eyes slightly at that, but led the way downstairs, his gun drawn as he searched around the area ahead of them. However, they'd run into the group that was heading upstairs (look at Lance's post)

Marygold Isley and Mirembe Adebayo


Location: OMEN Facility - First Floor Staircase


Mira raced after Guin when she had started running, when she glanced down and noticed the speedster's body. For a moment, she feared that it might have been the screech that had killed him, but noticed the blood covering his shirt, and realizing he'd been shot multiple times. At least she hadn't caused his death by accident, as she'd never be able to forgive herself if she had. Even still, the agents that were lying around on the ground, it made her feel a bit nauseous, knowing that she had caused this destruction. However, it wasn't like she could actually voice her opinion, her voice was basically gone completely right now.

"The blast I did cause, however that shriek came from another source that wasn't me," Wanda muttered towards Sara, glaring slightly. She was used to being blamed for things, and now she was second guessing her choice to actually protect Sara's ears, which either would have resulted in her death or she'd be in immense pain had it not been for Wanda.

"Guin? Are you okay?" Mary whispered softly, noticing her friend there and she walked over to her, kneeling on the ground slightly next to her. This was not a good sign, at all, that much was obvious. Things were going horribly, but at least they didn't have to deal with much resistance for the time being. Which was a good thing to say the least. They had to make sure the future that they had gone back in time to warn them about didn't come to pass, which meant a lot of things to be honest.

Namely they still had to deal with Jakobsen and OMEN itself. They were at one facility, there were bound to be more.

"...Come on Guin, all of you really... We need to keep moving, find the others down below. There shouldn't be too much trouble, but hopefully we can all get out of here without anything else happening... At least anything else that could be considered bad... Let's go... Okay?"

Lance Banner


Location: OMEN Facility - Staircase


Lance made sure to stay relatively close to the rest of the group, in order to make sure that they could at least see where they were going without accidentally tripping or something. When they were about halfway up the staircase, they ran into 3 people he didn't recognize, but one of them was wearing an OMEN uniform, however another had white hair and icy blue eyes, so he wasn't too sure what exactly they were up to at the moment. Who the hell were these people?

Thalia for the most part had been relatively quiet, just following along after them, having plugged her ears to avoid the main force of the screech. She glanced up and noticed someone in the group that she did know. More of recognized as someone who had been stuck in the facility longer than she had. "Hello there Demetria..."

"Hey there dragon girl, guessing you all are on the same page of time to make our great escape from this hell hole?" she asked, giving the group a slight smile. "Guessing you remember Agent Flynn? Well, he's on our side, so he's been helping us a bit, would be nice if you didn't shoot him."

"...Yes, we were heading upstairs..."

"Cool, we were going to check to see if anyone else was down here, anyway, thought I'd ask if someone in your group still has an inhibitor in their system?" she asked, pulling the vial from her pocket that held the serum to counteract the inhibitors.

Pietro's eyes lit up, "My powers are still down..."

"Quicksilver? Wouldn't surprise me, pretty sure everyone here knows you could easily pull of a jailbreak. They probably gave you a pretty heavy dose of the stuff. Here you go, you probably could use it to get us all up above pretty quickly," she responded, tossing it to him. Pietro remained silent as he injected himself with the serum. It took a moment, and he did feel slightly ill afterwards, but his speed had definitely returned.

"So, back to the first floor then?" Pietro said, a bit jumpy, before in a gust of wind he raced everyone upstairs in a blur. When they reached the top, Lance noticed that Pietro looked a little pale, and it didn't surprise him to much. His body probably had been working in overdrive to try and get the inhibitor out of his system, he looked like he might be sick actually, or potentially pass out. Pietro instantly went over to Guin and pulled her into his arms, and picked her up. "...So, let's see about getting out of here..."

"Perhaps you are right, you never can learn or figure out much of anything without doing a bit of exploring can you? I myself haven't really been in too many of the rooms here, so perhaps looking around and exploring would do us some good," she mused, not really talking too loudly. It didn't make sense for them to just stand around all day, well, more of all night. The best way to learn was to do something, like exploring the building that they were currently in.

She set her own drink down, following Tack's lead of sorts. Penance was a bit curious as to what exactly lay beyond the room that they were currently in, and she felt like she might as well find out since she was closer to there than exploring the rooms past the first one she had entered. Walking slowly behind him, she glanced around the room that she entered, and found it to be an interesting room of sorts. The commotion going on inside was a bit strange, someone seemed to have gotten themselves injured, what exactly had happened was anyone's guess.

"Alright, that works for me, and makes sense all things considering," she responded to Flynn's words with a smile. She was still really excited to get going, and was more than happy to follow after him towards the gate, where they'd be heading on their first mission. Crystal hardly heard the words of anyone else nearby, mainly focusing on the large gateway that was currently spinning. The thought of stepping through it to go to a completely different planet was mind boggling.

Nodding her head as she watched Flynn step through, she couldn't help but feel a slight nervousness settle in, as she glanced at the Stargate. Who knew what awaited them on the other side, but then again, there was only one way to find out. Slowly, she walked up to the gate, took a deep breath, and stepped through it. It was a strange feeling, but she managed to deal with it, or more of lock it in her memory so it wasn't so strange the next time around, and soon, she found herself on the other side. Crystal stepped away from the gate slightly, before turning to kind of look at it, before looking back over at Flynn. This was definitely going to be an interesting mission.
