The Mightiest Reborn

Just wanted to let everyone know that if any of you are having writers block, you can always shoot me a PM to brainstorm some ideas! I love working on plots and helping people think of new ways to approach a different idea!!

The Mightiest Reborn

@Phaesaris

It's all good! Looking forward to your post haha

The Mightiest Reborn

As Akaya has said, there's no need for not having the time to post, shit happens!

I really do appreciate you guys sending status updates though, and I love reading all these different plots and seeing how each character reacts to different situations, and each other!

Also wanna give a heads up, I might start to amp up the challenge for Team 2 in my next post (so @Kronshi@Nightwing95@Kaithas@Crimmy@SevenStormStyle get ready to fight a mythical beast!).

The Mightiest Reborn

WHOOO!!! Haha I'm celebrating it by going to the gym (I've gotten a bit squishy), and hoping my Goku shirt gives me strength and counts as a mediocre costume hahaha

The screech came again, and this time it was much louder than it was a few blocks away. A wave of dread and a sense of fear entered Ben's body, causing him to land on all fours from behind the car. It was something that felt familiar before. The thought of becoming, drifting in the darkness while everything else moved ahead of you... It was an intense feeling, and one he didn't want to visit again. He came back to the sound of a deep voice... And by the fact that he was still alive, he assumed that the thieves never found him, or didn't have a chance to. Peering over the car he saw a man state his authority, declaring judgement and killing two of the three remaining hostiles. When the last one ran away from the crowd, Ben slowly rose from his cover spot, looking at the two men. Both obviously had the skills to easily kill one another, but for some reason... They didn't. Maybe it was because they all showed a bit of uncertainty, and that they knew what each other were going through.

Ben walked over to the two other men, one cuddling a German Shepard and the other paying respects to an empty grave and tombstone. Ben saw no threat from either of them, and as the two talked, Ben couldn't help but look more over to the one at the grave. He definitely had the more interesting trait, almost as if he remembered it before. It was something that he should have feared, but for a strange reason it brought some sort of... comfort. As if it was one thing he could trust...

"I am Ben." The man said with a deep tone, the breeze moving his black hair a bit. He looked over at Hal, and nodded towards the tombstone. "You know him?"

The man held a calf. He had seen a lot of weird things in his time in this gods forsaken city, but this was rather unusual to him. The man was obviously not a threat. He didn't know why really. He had a weapon himself, but he came towards him with curiosity. He didn't ask for his help, he didn't threaten him for his backpack, he simply greeted him, and asked (in a very polite way) what the fuck happened to him. Eli looked down at his sword, he didn't feel like he'd need it, but he kept a tight grip on it just in case. Eli didn't talk at first. He simply looked at the man for a few seconds, debating on how exactly to answer this. He didn't feel like telling him everything that went on, how he didn't know how he got here or where he was, because that could be information that could get Eli killed.

"I trusted someone I shouldn't have." Was Eli's reply, his voice a bit rough and broken. He pointed to the calf, giving half of a laugh. "It seems you have had better luck than I have. From what I've experienced in his damned city, you might as well be walking around with a sign that says 'Free Food.'" He said, his golden eyes examining the man yet again to make sure he was someone he could trust for now. "You traveling alone? Or bringing him back to your friends?" Eli obviously didn't know how much that calf meant to the man. he assumed he was taking it to eat for the food. He would have asked for a name first, but he needed to know how many people were with him. He could never be too careful in this world.

I am finally free!! Like most of you guys, I've had an incredibly busy week, but I am completely free for the rest of the day, and have significantly less work to do for the rest of the week! So I'll be able to post a lot more, and actually socialize in this RP instead of only getting to glance at posts and have my co-GM's do all the work (which I deeply apologize for)

Hope the rest of you guys are doing great!

Added the cat bit so that @Argetlam350 or @Phaesaris could join in on this encounter in my Atlas post haha

The Mightiest Reborn

Atlas

His clothes were splattered with blood from the recent accident. He had just awoken an hour ago and he already felt tired and hollow. What kind of world was this? The world has gone to shit, and yet instead of uniting, most of these humans were too busy killing and tricking each other for their own personal gain. Reminds you of something, doesn't it? He asked himself. He wanted to see if he could find that woman's daughter. To try and do anything to help her, but there were a lot of things stopping him from doing that. He had no idea where she would even be, he heard distant gunfire, and he was afraid he might find the worst case scenario if he did.

He walked on to yet another deserted street when he heard a noise deep within an alleyway. He didn't need another person trying to sneak up and trick him. He lowered his stance a bit, and went to the corner of a building, staying as quiet as possible. He put his hand on his sword, bloodstained but still sharp. He didn't know what would be coming out of that alleyway, but he needed to be on high alert... Seconds of silence lasted for what seemed like years, and Eli finally lowered his sword. It might have been the--

"Shit!" Eli gasped, falling down from sheer surprise as something leaped out of the alleyway. His golden eyes stared in horror at the sight of the mighty...! Cat? It was just a regular looking house cat. Its fur dirty and matted from the years on its own, but other than that, it looked normal. It looked at him with what he could assume was amusement before looking back at in the alleyway and taking off again. Eli muttered a few things as he stood back up, and when looking down the road yet again, he froze. Another figure started walking down the destroyed street. Did he see Eli? Was he armed? Was he friendly or here to kill people? Or looking for his friends in the mechanic shop?

It was too late to hide... And as the man walked farther down the road, Eli grasped the hilt of his sword again, wishing he took a gun from the gang earlier.

I spent the day playing some Super Smash Bros 4 (Go Fox!) and played some AC Syndicate before studying for an online history test, which I failed because there are a ton of correct answers, but there's only one MAIN answer which is full of crap.

future high school history teacher going on a rant about online courses

As someone who's studying to become a teacher, I highly recommend staying away from online courses if you're pursuing a college career. it may be just me, but having a human being making tests and quizzes based on both the book AND their lectures is way easier to understand. Someone who just takes the text and makes questions solely on that with no connection to you or the class shouldn't make exams.

exams shouldn't be about having trick questions in there to prove that you read the text word for word. It should be about what you take from the text and your teachings, and how you want your students to understand the knowledge you're giving them... But that's just me. haha

Gaurdians of the Galaxy; An Old Friend |Jones Sparrow & EasilyAmused|

Peter was still watching the stars as Nikki talked. When he was a kid, he would often look out the windows of the Ravager's ships, and wonder which little sparkling dot of light was Earth, and if he would ever go back there... After defeating Ronin, he looked at the stars and realized just how small this galaxy was, and how it only takes one man to threaten its existence. Their existence. Yeah, he was definitely a different man than the one Nikki met all those years ago. He was still hot headed, hard to like, a smartass, and likes to make some money doing this stuff... But he now had an understanding, and acceptance. He wasn't afraid anymore. He was Star-Lord: The leader of the Guardians of the Galaxy!

Nikki's hands on his shoulders were unexpected, but after everything they've gone through, like fighting his dad, to being attacked on Xandar, to negotiating with Yondu on his home turf and surviving through all of that... Her hands messaging his tense muscles felt amazing. His shoulder's dropped, moving his head around to loosen his neck, eyes closed as he enjoyed the feel of her hands and sound of her sweet voice. She was definitely one of a kind. She could take on an entire alien army single handedly and win, yet her voice was far from rough and tough. It was like soft silk. It was welcoming, teasing. "Hmm.." Peter managed to let out.

"I'm glad you agree. Screw Nova and their fancy pants politicians." Peter said quietly. Her voice next to his ears sent shivers down his spine. He was so relaxed that he didn't answer her question at first, only giving a scoff. He gently took one of her hands, and looked at it as if inspecting it. Her fingers were callused from her years of fighting, and traveling, but there were spots where they were soft to the touch, little bits of scars were on her tanned skin, showing her experience. They had a beauty to them, exactly like her. She was so tough and strong, and brave, yet gentle and merciful and loving. He gently pressed his lips against her fingers.

"Well we have to get some fuel for the ship to rendezvous with Yondu and his band of misfits to fight another big band of misfits, and somehow survive that whole mess so the Galactic Counsel off our backs so we can get back to doing our own thing. Not a bad first assignment for you, huh rookie?" He looked up at her with a grin.
