Oops Sorry guys I got side tracked watching Jessica Jones on netflix, and then I took a 4 hour nap... my post will be up in a matter of minutes (possibly 2-3 hours) :D

Oh I assumed there was a post order, and was waiting for Rumiko to post. If she doesn't post in a few hours then I will.

Alisha got the message, and though it had been faint she had enough of an idea where to port. She jumped and teleported to the alley, ungracefully landing on her butt, the palms of her hand scrapped along the asphalt as she skidded into the side of a dumpster. Right next to her laid a unconscious guy with a bullet wound to the shoulder. She was in a lot of pain from the sprained ankle that was now swollen and blue, and her feet were a mess of cuts and scraps. Alisha's leg mussels cramped from the gruesome run, and she could hardly catch her breath. Standing up and walking was not an option at the moment, now that she was safe enough in the alley, she didn't want to move.

The guy beside her was bleeding pretty badly, as expected with a gunshot wound. But Alisha could tell, thanks to two semesters of high school anatomy, that the bullet hadn't hit anything major based on where it was. The problem for now was the bleeding needed to stop. Finally catching her breath, she sat up on her knees facing the guys body. She ripped the sleeve off her shirt and pressed it firmly to his wound. Alisha's medical knowledge extended as far as basic first aid, and the random knowledge gained from watching TV shoes like ER, and Scrubs.

"Hey can you hear me open your eyes. I need you to wake up! Hey look at me." She said earnestly to him. Telepathically she called out to the other Deves around her 'Need some help over here, if you can manage.'

It was brod daylight and anyone could walk by the alley and see the group of bloodied, mud covered teens, dressed in what looked like hospital clothes. Logical assumption for a passing stranger was that they were escaped mental patients or something just a terrible. They needed a place to lay low, clean up, eat, bandage themselves, and rest safely. Unfortunately without money, and with their appearances as dreadful as they were, options were highly limited. The only place Alisha could think of as a possibility was some unoccupied house for sale, or an abandoned building. She was basically all out of energy for using her powers, with the last teleport having drained her.

DEVIANTS

Running for the tree line was easy enough, dodging the bullets that followed her not so much. Alisha was an adequate runner, and adept at parkor, but this situation with the wet grass, death and gore was making it hard to concentrate on not tripping, falling over, or getting shot. The adrenaline rush was helping, and it gave her the boost of energy needed to telekineticly toss a big log at the group of shooters behind them all. Effectively smashing two of them under the log and distracting the five others for a very short moment. Running she jumped down the incline into the woods. The jump down resulted in a sprained ankle but she ignored the stabbing pain, and kept going, where to she had no idea.

The only information about their whereabouts was that they were in Toketee Oregon. Getting away from the waterfall and bad guys was the number one priority at the moment. She wanted to teleport as far as she could. The fact that she only had those grippy hospital socks on was not helping, as they were soaked through and flopping as she ran. Darting behind the thickest tree she saw, Alisha quickly tugged the socks off and left them. Sure running through a forest barefoot was going to suck, she would probably end up with cuts, but she would be just a tad faster.

Alisha had been to Oregon one time with Mandy over three years ago. It was where they met up in Portland with a man named Dexter who had been a friend of Mandy's and was also a deviant. Hopefully if she could get away from the rushing water, and have a safe hour or two to sore up some energy she could just teleport to Portland for help... Some food and water wouldn't be to bad ether. She tried to teleport but only managed to go about half a yard deeper into the forest. She was low on energy and could still hear the waterfall behind her. She also noticed a rushing creek to the left, which didn't help anything.

She needed to catch her breath so she looked behind her for the pursuers. They weren't visible from where she was running and though she could hear the gunshots off in the distant, there seemed to be less of them shooting off. Alisha leaned against a tree and breathed heavily, sweat dripping down her face, and her feet and legs were covered in mud and pine needles. Her throat was bone dry, and her heart was beating mile a minute. Pushing off from the tree she ran.

Are others still allowed to sign up to be in this RP? Cause the way the npc Deve's are dying there will be no open spots. Unless they make human character or deve that didn't get caught by the facility....

DEVIANTS

Yay! Got my first post up finally! :D

Love how this is going so far.

So a couple things I wanted to talk about;

We're all clear on the inability to kill thing right? Do we also want this power to extend to animals as well?

Now, Deviant sounds a bit clunky, better than Tomorrow People at least, but still just a bit complex. Would it be confusing for Daz to shorten it to Deve?

@PerseusArchean

Deve works for me. I don't think the killing thing should extend to animals. I mean hitting a bird with your car, or stepping on some ants would be an issue.

She had been at this facility for exactly one month to the day. With no clocks or windows in her cell, noting the time and how long she'd been here had been tricky, but like clock work the humans in the masks would bring her three meals a day, and that was how she had been keeping time. When she had first got here she had been rather combative, and thus spent most of her days in a haze of sedative drugs, or strapped down to a medical bed. After about a week she stopped fighting and began her silent protest. By the third week she was starting to lose hope, and wondered what the rest of her life in a prison would be like.

When the electricity went out and her abilities started working again the first thing she did was listen to any and every mind she could hear. Information was key, as she couldn't teleport because she had no clue where she was. Hell for all she knew she was in the north pole, and teleporting back to Detroit would kill her. She heard bits and pieces of the peoples thoughts around her, The panic and confusion was evident in everyone's mind. She quickly teleported into the hall in front of her cell door, after she was sure no one out there was the enemy, in fact they were all like her, prisoners deviants.

The chaos quickly turned into bodies dropping, as the once dozen or so fellow Deviants became only eight left alive. Alisha stood pressing her back against the wall, trying to make her self a smaller target. A boy with red hair dropped in front of her, dying from a bullet to the neck, he bleed out quickly as he stared up at her, his eyes glazed over as he died. This scene would most likely haunt her for years to come, if she got out of here alive. She could telepathically hear the few other Deviants giving commands, and information on how to get out of this place, the map was helpful, and she was ready to get the hell out of here.

Grabbing a hysterically crying guy who had been cradling the body of what seemed to be his dead twin, Alisha followed the others lead and teleported to the stairwell that lead out of the place with him in tow. With the electricity still out most of the rooms and corridors around were pitch black, the only light coming in from the slit like windows. But even in the dim light Alisha noticed that the white hospital scrubs that she and many of the others were wearing all had some amount of blood on it, others were more or less drenched in it. She let got of the crying guy, who limply and pathetically plopped down onto the ground to continue sobbing, and not helping himself. "Get it together. Survive." She said to him, but also to herself, and anyone listening.

The door at the end of the stairwell and corridor, was the one that would lead to freedom. It was super locked and made of heavy steel and titanium. But with three of her strongest and huge telekinetic blasts, Alisha managed to bust it open, and light from the outside shown in.

Bio:

Kind of Long

Alisha was born in jail to a woman named Mandy Bennett. Her mother was in jail for prostitution, and Alisha's father was one of Mandy's many unknown Johns. She was immediately placed into the foster system after she was born. Her biological mother refused to give up her parental rights even though she had a 10-15 year sentence in prison. Three days old Alisha was given to a loving family in small town Connecticut. Little did anyone know Mandy Bennett was a Deve, and was just trying her best to stay off the radar of the people hunting her. Three weeks after giving birth Mandy couldn't take the prison life and separation from her baby, so she teleported out of jail, officially becoming a fugitive. First stop on Mandy's list was to get Alisha back, she ended up in front of the foster family's house in the middle of the night, and took baby Alisha with her. Teleporting with a baby was out of the question so she hitched rides down the interstate, with no plan or idea of what to do.

Six months on the run, living in and out of motels, and back to her old ways of making money, Mandy finally came to the conclusion that Alisha needed a proper home and family. Something she could not give her, so she left Alisha at the closest hospital. Alisha was placed into the Massachusetts foster system, and was quickly adopted in a matter of weeks, by the Landon family. Kayla and Martin Landon were some of the best parents you could hope for. They named her Alisha after the nurse that found her on the hospital steps.

And so Alisha grew up in Providence RI. A simple happy life. Martin her new father was a mixed martial artist who ran his own gym, and Kayla her new mother was a music teacher at the local high school. They all lived happily in a three story town home with a little court yard she would learn to walk in. Her bedroom was a favorite place with its powder blue walls, a canopy bed, and huge doll house her father built. Her parents sent her to the private catholic school, her summers were spent in Michigan at the cottage on the lakes, and Christmas was always at the Plaza in Manhattan. She even had an older brother named Felix who was her protector, and best friend.

Unfortunately when she was nine years old her family was in a car crash, and she was the only one to survive. Her parents died instantly and Felix was left a vegetable in a coma. Her happy life was seemingly over. The death of her parents led to a whole life change for Alisha. Her fathers parents became her legal guardians, but they lived in Germany, and only came to stay with Alisha until the house was sold, the funerals were held, and Felix was taken of life support. Her grandparents quickly decided that it was best that Alisha stay in America, so she was sent to live with her father's younger sister Harriet in Vegas Nevada.

Living in a cluttered 5th floor walk up in Vegas above a bar with her Aunt Harriet was very different from the life she had been living. Going to public school was nothing like her old school, she missed her friends, her old house, her city, and most of all her family. Harriet was an aspiring musician, who worked as a stripper, maid, and bartender to pay the bills, so she was not home much to take care of Alisha. When Harriet was home she was ether sleeping or playing music with her band in the living room until late into the morning hours. Harriet was a nice to Alisha, but responsibility for anyone other then herself seemed impossible for her to handle. Alisha was a good kid, but she had never needed to take care of herself before.

By middle school she had learned to how to cook, clean, shop, use the public bus, and she could take care of herself. She even had a part time job tutoring little kids in piano, and helping out at the yarn shop down the street from her school. Living on the bad side of town in a dangerous neighborhood Alisha was lucky to know a thing or to about fighting. When she was twelve Aunt Harriet was diagnosed with brain cancer, and Alisha became her caretaker for the next two years until she died. She felt alone in the world. Being only fourteen the state placed her into a foster care group home for girls. The place was like a prison, and most of the girls there where what some would label politely as troubled, but more correctly put they were violent delinquents, with major issues.

A month into her stay and Sunshine Home for teen girls, her Deve powers started presenting themselves. Alisha was pretty sure she was going nuts, hear what people around her were thinking and waking up in random places. The group home staff got her on anti-psychotics meds, and started locking her in her room at night, not that any of it stopped her. One day three girls decided to teach Alisha a lesson by ganging up on her in the bathroom to kick her ass, all because Alisha narked on them after she heard one thinking about their plan to burn the place down. She did the best she could defending herself, but she was quickly knocked to the ground and the girl proceeded to kicked her. Survival skills kicked in and she blasted them with her telekinesis, they went flying, and one of the girls landed wrong braking her spine, effectively paralyzed for life.

The group home staff locked her in her bedroom as they waited for the authorities to pick her up. Standing in her room bloody and beaten, with no idea what to do, and not knowing what was going to happen to her, she was on the verge of crying for the first time in over three years, when a woman teleported into her room, smiled and then abruptly teleported Alisha out into a alleyway downtown. She didn't know it at the time but that woman was her biological mother Mandy. After calming down, Mandy explained everything about being a Deve to her.

Accepting the truth was easier then one would think. Over the next year Mandy helped Alisha train her powers, as they lived from city to city. Mandy a was and expert at keeping her thoughts hidden and closed off, so Alisha never learned the truth about Mandy being her real mother, or Mandy's past profession, that is until New Years night. Mandy got drunk and let it all slip out. Alisha felt betrayed and pissed off, but she did't show it as she helped the drunk hysterical Mandy to her bed and cleaned up the vomit in the bathroom. She had never fully trusted Mandy, but she had been grateful to her and looked up to her in a teacher student kind of way.

A few months passed, and they ended up crossing paths with two Deve hunter agents. The inability to kill was not something Alisha had been told about, so when Mandy collapsed to the ground after telekinetically throwing one of the agents off the building, she wasn't ready. Alisha Quickly teleported her and her mother out, but the draining of powers from the fight made the jump a short trip, as they only made it to the alley below the building, Rather then all they way across town to their apartment. Mandy finally woke up, and they ran, but the second agent caught up and shots were fired. Mandy took a bullet to the leg, and another bullet grazed Alisha's shoulder. Mandy telepathically yell at her to keep running, and flashed a quick memory to her of the first time she held baby Alisha in her arms almost sixteen years ago. Alisha ran, only looking back to see the agent crack Mandy in the head with his pistol, and put her in fancy handcuffs. With the small bit of energy she had left she teleported a few blocks and haled a cab.

The next three years she spent on her own. Keeping a low profile after she moved to Detroit, she got a job at a as a receptionist at a car dealership. She was guilt ridden about Mandy, and slightly paranoid about being found by the agents, but she managed to live her life. Unfortunately the guy she started dating ended up being the son of one of these Agents. She had had no idea, and the guy, Graham, seemed completely safe.

When she went to meet Graham's father Ronald for the first time the man quickly recognized her as the teen girl who got away three years ago. An old picture of her was in the Deve hunters database, and he remembered it from a long day of filing a few months ago. With agent Ronald's abrupt realization, Alisha caught on to the thoughts in his mind. But before she could teleport away or do anything Ronald clicked on some button thing and Alisha's powers didn't work, she was stuck in his house. No words were said but Ronald issued a warning through by thinking it. Alisha didn't wait, and headed straight for the front door, ignoring the confused Graham. Ronald grabbed his tazer and quickly got in front of her, explaining backup was on the way, and telling Graham to leave the room. A fight broke out, and Alisha got a few good punches in before Ronald tazed her to the ground.

She woke up in the facility, in a cell. With her powers not working, and she was strapped to a medical bed thing. The only thing on her mind was how to get the fuck out of this place.

Harriet was a nice to Alisha, but responsibility for anyone other then herself seemed impossible for her to handle. Alisha was a good kid, but she had never needed to take care of herself before.

By middle school she had learned to how to cook, clean, shop, use the public bus, and she could take care of herself. She even had a part time job tutoring little kids in piano, and helping out at the yarn shop down the street from her school. Living on the bad side of town in a dangerous neighborhood Alisha was lucky to know a thing or to about fighting. When she was twelve Aunt Harriet was diagnosed with brain cancer, and Alisha became her caretaker for the next two years until she died. She felt alone in the world. Being only fourteen the state placed her into a foster care group home for girls. The place was like a prison, and most of the girls there where what some would label politely as troubled, but more correctly put they were violent delinquents, with major issues.

A month into her stay and Sunshine Home for teen girls, her Deve powers started presenting themselves. Alisha was pretty sure she was going nuts, hear what people around her were thinking and waking up in random places. The group home staff got her on anti-psychotics meds, and started locking her in her room at night, not that any of it stopped her. One day three girls decided to teach Alisha a lesson by ganging up on her in the bathroom to kick her ass, all because Alisha narked on them after she heard one thinking about their plan to burn the place down. She did the best she could defending herself, but she was quickly knocked to the ground and the girl proceeded to kicked her. Survival skills kicked in and she blasted them with her telekinesis, they went flying, and one of the girls landed wrong braking her spine, effectively paralyzed for life.

The group home staff locked her in her bedroom as they waited for the authorities to pick her up. Standing in her room bloody and beaten, with no idea what to do, and not knowing what was going to happen to her, she was on the verge of crying for the first time in over three years, when a woman teleported into her room, smiled and then abruptly teleported Alisha out into a alleyway downtown. She didn't know it at the time but that woman was her biological mother Mandy. After calming down, Mandy explained everything about being a Deve to her.

Accepting the truth was easier then one would think. Over the next year Mandy helped Alisha train her powers, as they lived from city to city. Mandy a was and expert at keeping her thoughts hidden and closed off, so Alisha never learned the truth about Mandy being her real mother, or Mandy's past profession, that is until New Years night. Mandy got drunk and let it all slip out. Alisha felt betrayed and pissed off, but she did't show it as she helped the drunk hysterical Mandy to her bed and cleaned up the vomit in the bathroom. She had never fully trusted Mandy, but she had been grateful to her and looked up to her in a teacher student kind of way.

A few months passed, and they ended up crossing paths with two Deve hunter agents. The inability to kill was not something Alisha had been told about, so when Mandy collapsed to the ground after telekinetically throwing one of the agents off the building, she wasn't ready. Alisha Quickly teleported her and her mother out, but the draining of powers from the fight made the jump a short trip, as they only made it to the alley below the building, Rather then all they way across town to their apartment. Mandy finally woke up, and they ran, but the second agent caught up and shots were fired. Mandy took a bullet to the leg, and another bullet grazed Alisha's shoulder. Mandy telepathically yell at her to keep running, and flashed a quick memory to her of the first time she held baby Alisha in her arms almost sixteen years ago. Alisha ran, only looking back to see the agent crack Mandy in the head with his pistol, and put her in fancy handcuffs. With the small bit of energy she had left she teleported a few blocks and haled a cab.

The next three years she spent on her own. Keeping a low profile after she moved to Detroit, she got a job at a as a receptionist at a car dealership. She was guilt ridden about Mandy, and slightly paranoid about being found by the agents, but she managed to live her life. Unfortunately the guy she started dating ended up being the son of one of these Agents. She had had no idea, and the guy, Graham, seemed completely safe.

When she went to meet Graham's father Ronald for the first time the man quickly recognized her as the teen girl who got away three years ago. An old picture of her was in the Deve hunters database, and he remembered it from a long day of filing a few months ago. With agent Ronald's abrupt realization, Alisha caught on to the thoughts in his mind. But before she could teleport away or do anything Ronald clicked on some button thing and Alisha's powers didn't work, she was stuck in his house. No words were said but Ronald issued a warning through by thinking it. Alisha didn't wait, and headed straight for the front door, ignoring the confused Graham. Ronald grabbed his tazer and quickly got in front of her, explaining backup was on the way, and telling Graham to leave the room. A fight broke out, and Alisha got a few good punches in before Ronald tazed her to the ground.

She woke up in the facility, in a cell. With her powers not working, and she was strapped to a medical bed thing. The only thing on her mind was how to get the fuck out of this place.
