"Reina" - Subject 143

Reina sighed as the girl still seemed to be upset about her powers. She wanted to do something about it, kind of, but she didn't know how to comfort the girl. "Yeah... weird," was all she had to say about that. Talking to other people seemed to be more of Boomi's specialty anyways. Reina would probably only make it worse.

Speaking of Boomi, she was trying really hard to determine what her powers were. It was somewhat amusing to watch and Reina could not help but chuckle when she flung water around. But it didn't take too long though for her to discover her true powers. Reina's eyes widened as she watched her teammate transforming into a fish. Well, at least partly transform into a fish. "That's pretty cool, Boomi, Reina said with a gentle smile.

So they had a shapeshifter and a girl with death for hands. "So what can I do?" Reina wondered to herself.

Something's out there

Meanwhile, there was a large creature that was waking up from its rest. It has been asleep for a very long time and it was hungry. It had sensed something unusual in its home, and it smelled delicious.

It jumped down from its nest and landed softly on the ground. It stands at about 7 feet tall, but its length reaches about 10 feet. It had many eyes that weren't good for seeing details, but could sense movements. However, it relied more on its sense of smell to track down its victims. It quickly crawled over smaller trees and shrubs, in search of its meal.

It was weird. The jungle that was filled with the sounds of birds and other living things, was now silent. Well, except for one sound. There was the sound of rustling coming from the trees to their left. "D-did anyone hear that?" asked Reina, taking a step back. She really hoped that it was just the wind. But the rustling continued and seemed to be getting closer. And perhaps it was her imagination, but it seemed like something was approaching them, something that must have scared everything else away. And she didn't want to stay there long enough to find out.

"Let's get out of here!" she shouted in a deafening high voice, already breaking out into a sprint and possibly leaving the others behind. She didn't know where she was running to but anything was better than staying there.

September 4th, 2015 || Day One || Ashley Hart

While school itself was really lame and boring, Ashley looked forward to the new school year. She was only a junior but if she played her cards right, she'll definitely be the team captain of the cheer leading squad this time, next year. Her big birthday bash was coming up and she was hoping that it would be enough to completely win the seniors over.

"I wonder if Daddy would let me use his yacht..." she thought to herself though she already knew the answer. He was going to say no. He wasn't a very strict father but if there was one thing that she was not allowed to be near, it was his precious yacht. He uses it to take a break from her and her mother.

So she was left with renting out the country club, their mansion, or their beach house. While the country club would be posh, there would be a lot of rules and it was the same with their mansion. But she had her last birthday party at the beach house. She didn't want to do a repeat; that would lower her cred.

She played with her long, blonde hair as she tried to think. Actually, wasn't there supposed to be something that she was doing right about now? Oh right, the English assignment. She had to fill out a survey or whatever and then get an anonymous pen pal that she had to write to every week. She picked up her pencil and began to write in her answers. They weren't that hard as she just had to write about herself. Why couldn't all her assignments be like that?

Satisfied with her answers, she pulled out her phone to text her boyfriend, Wilson. They hadn't been dating for very long but she actually liked him quite a bit.

To: Babe
Do you want to hang out tonight?

As she waited for his response, she continued to plan out her birthday party. "I only have about a week and a half to plan this out."

No Escape: Hit Squad

Lavena Kavanagh

Lavena offered a smile to her new companions. But before she could say anything else, they have arrived at their destination. Their leader, who has yet to introduce himself, had given them their mission details and it seemed simple enough. Under the impression that they were trying to blend in, she placed her head back on her neck.

When they landed, they were immediately approached by guards. They eyed them suspiciously and while their guns may not kill her, it made her worry.

It turned out that their "cover" is that their leader was selling them to their boss. Despite this new information, she decided to keep her head on. Maybe it would be safer if they didn't know what she was and her weaknesses. And much to her surprise, the plan had actually worked. They were not completely satisfied with their story, but they were letting them pass. She kept her eyes down as they began to walk to wherever they were supposed to go.

I was going to wait til more people posted, but I can get a post up later tonight to keep it rolling. Just so we all know that this isn't dead. The other GM's and I have been busy. I don't know the details about them, but I'm just going through my last week of summer classes.

We should probably check to see if everyone is still here or not too. We are still waiting for a few people to post so hopefully they are still with us. Maybe I should get a roll call in order.

What are some of your hobbies and interests?
"I'm a cheerleader so obviously I love cheer leading. I've been doing it since I was like 5. I also know how to dance and have taken ballet for like six years. Hm... what else do I do besides cheering and dancing? Well, I love to go shopping with my friends and going to parties. Oh! And well, I'm not sure if you can call this a hobby, but I'm pretty obsessed with hot guys. I also like watching t.v. shows like Pretty Little Liars and uh, traveling to places like Paris. Ooh, I should ask my mom when we are going to Europe again."

How would you describe your personality?
"Where do I even begin? I'm super popular and charming. Everyone loves me. Well, everyone who is an anyone of course. I'm also like really, really hardworking. People don't understand that being popular is a lot of hard work. I have to wake up early just to make sure I look better than everyone else. It takes me like hours just to get my hair and make up perfect. Then I have to go to school and talk to a bunch of people. And I have to talk to a lot of dumb jocks who think they have a chance with me, but whatever. And then I have to go to cheer practice and that's so tiring. I also have to be really nice to everyone even though they are so stupid sometimes. All of my friends come to me for advice on boys and fashion. I am so nice though so I help them out. They would be so lost without me. Some people might say that I'm just a dumb blonde, but I'm not as stupid as I look. It's just like, people don't like smart girls so why bother? My mom is like my dad's trophy wife and she lives in a wonderful mansion and never has to do anything. I want to be just like her."

What has your life been like so far?
"It's been pretty awesome. I have lots of friends, lots of boys liking me, and lots of money because my parents are rich. I'm also an only child so I never have to share any of my stuff. My mom and I travel a lot while my dad goes to work. I don't really know what he does, but it's like some kind of business thing. My mom and I don't really care though as long as we get to go on our bi-annual trips around the world."

What will you pick as your screen name (and alias if asked)?
"Hm... I don't know. Maybe Pretty_in_Pink or something like that. Um, as for an alias? I guess Hannah."

What are your thoughts on the project?
"It's just like any other assignments. I guess it'll be kind of fun. I bet you I'll get paired up with some total loser though."

Anything else you'd like to add?
"Nah, I think I'm good. Bye!"

"Reina" - Subject 143

Reina stirred in her sleep, feeling rather uncomfortable. Her dorm was nice and cool, so why was it so hot and humid right now? She felt something on her face, and she wiped it off with one of her hands. Whatever it was, it was wet, but sticky. It appeared to have been produced by her own body. "Ugh... sweat..." she thought as her eyes slowly opened.

She began to process the world around her. She blinked a few times, taken aback by this strange, new environment. This jungle was the opposite of their previous location. It was filled with color and life. There was a lot of sensory input and it was overwhelming her. The bright sunlight hurt her eyes when she looked at it directly and the loud chirping sound was giving her a headache. She pushed herself up and saw that her two companions were already running off, doing their own thing. Not wanting to be alone, she made her way towards Boomi and the blonde girl whom she did not know yet. Once she got closer to them, she noticed that the blonde girl had a strange black miasma or something around her hands that didn't seem to go away even when they put water on it. In fact, it seemed that the thing was actually getting rid of the water instead. "What's wrong with her?" she asked, probably coming across harsher than she intended to. She didn't mean to be rude, but the girl's hands were rather freaky.

"And where are we?"

There were no sign of civilization anywhere. There were only trees and trees and then some more trees. Maybe if they somehow returned back to the Lock Down, the girl could be treated for whatever was wrong with her. She looked like she was in a whole lot of pain. As Reina tried to find something that would help the girl, she wondered what had happened and why they were in a place like this in the first place.

Then as if right on time, a voice coming from the sky began to speak. "Good morning and welcome subjects to your first training exercise. We will be testing your powers in this jungle environment. Please take this time to discover your powers and demonstrate what you are capable of. Your only task for this exercise, is to survive."

Reina looked up to try to figure out where the voice was coming from, but it was no good. She then turned to the blonde girl who was freaking out and said, "Did you hear that? They said that we are discovering our powers. Maybe that thing is your power."

"Sucks for her though," she could not help but think. "That power did not seem very fun."

On the other hand, at least the girl had a clue of what her powers could be. Reina and Boomi would have to figure it out on their own. Anyways, their task was to 'survive'. That implies that something will be putting their lives in danger but it was still too vague of a task. Not knowing what to do, she looked to her teammates to see how they would react and if either of them would know what course of actions they would need to take.
