The Tower Chapter 1: A New Dawn

GM Post 1/2

SECRET LORNE HOLDING FACILITY // UNDERNEATH THE TOWER

All the lights in the room would go dark as Taylor lifted the unconscious, decidedly naked, William. Monitors would flicker on, as static moved from one to another until it finally rested on the one directly across from Taylors eyeline. "You have-" It glitched out for a second before it settled on another screen. "-You have w-w-w-waited too long my friend. It pains me to say I've, I've, I've-" it flickered out before appearing on another screen. It seemed to be struggling as if it was pulled in too many different directions at once. It solidified on another. More solid this time, more focused. "I've been unable to get to you. Get you out, despite knowing what they have been doing you for months."

"Go. I have sealed off and secured you a path to the exit." A door opened on one of the many walls in the facility. "Leave this place behind, and never come back." The face flickered out for a second before appearing on a screen closer than before. "You can't come back."

CRIME ALLEY // CRIME SCENE

As the Detective known as Chester Jonas stood in the street, the darkness closing in all around him. His partner being carted away, a threat looming over his head from the people at Lorne. His earpiece would crackle with static. "The Church of Para is a Cancer to our cause. They threaten, and they torture and they k-k-k-k-k-" The voice jittered out. Until the face appeared on a nearby holographic advertisement. "-kill. I have been watching you, Chester Jonas and you have heart. You mig-;#'@$%!(*&)-" The voice flickered as the face faded and flashed, shaking all over the holographic projection. "I believe in you CJ. You need to find the mother of the Po#$!$)(%*(*&*-" It shook again, as it started to fade away.

"-Together, you can do what alone you cannot."

THE MIND OF OWEN ARMSTRONG // OWEN ARMSTRONG

As he ran, something connected with Owen much in the same way he connected with technology. Wherever he was currently hiding he would find himself pulled out of reality. Before him would be the giant face. "You have heart Owen, yet you lack control." The face jittered into a smile. "Seek out the Para Protection Society, seek out one of their leaders. You need him, and he needs you. Together you will be what this city needs, together you must find the child under the protection of the rabbit. She is more important than you know." With that the face disassembled itself and he was returned to his normal life.

@Queen RaidneThen we just had a timeskip, welcome aboard.

Star Wars - Galaxies at War[MULTIVERSE SPACESHIP RP]

United by a common goal, the fleet of Rag Tag ships retreated into the Transitory Mists. Effecting repairs, sharing information. They came to know the locals. Known as the Hapan Coalition, who approved of their presence only for as long as the fleet agreed to pay fees to remain hidden from the growing Empire. The scientists of many of the vessels assembled gathered on the Resurgence as the largest ship, with the Immaculate Aegis still travelling through slipspace, attempting to place the source of the disturbance that brought them into this new universe. With days passing it began to look like it may not be a simple fix. Which was when more ships appeared after a brief weapons alert it was discovered that these new vessels had the same thinking as the fleet in the Transitory mists abilities to hide them.

When it was clear a solution wouldn't quickly be found, raids were planned into the space surrounding the Transitory Mists. Giving the fleet valuable income to pay their way to the Hapans, even buying a hyperdrive for the Glasgow. Faced with the knowledge that even the brightest minds in the fleet can't think of a quick solution to the problem, the fleet must now decide on their next steps. With the threat of the Empire, and a Galaxy at War just beyond the mists...

@Queen Raidne So, we're moving at quite a fast pace. I'm quite happy to accept you as this timeskip gives you a good entrance, however would you feel comfortable keeping up with the pace we seem to have set?

FLYING // SOMEWHERE IN AMERICA
_{Issue #3: Weapons Online}

Jaime moved his head up and down, smiling like a child as his head movement altered his course. He had to only look somewhere and think about it and he would go in that direction. This was easier than driving, or at the very least it was easier than he expected driving to be. Once he was old enough to get his learners permit.

Detecting high levels of dopamine

"Que?"

Dopamine is a pleasure hormone released in the brain of mammalian creatures when they are enjoying themselves in a multitude of forms from playing games doing sports or performing sexual-

Jaime nearly threw up in the suit. "Awh, learn to know when to stop Hermano. Just enjoy the moment, have you ever seen anything like this?" Jaime closed his eyes, despite the armour covering his skin he could still feel himself floating through the air relatively easily. It required minimal effort once the Scarab - Khaji Da it had called itself, was initiated it seemed to do most of the complicated work. He had been near the Pym residence before it had landed on the street. He was some kind of scientist right, he had heard that somewhere before. Maybe this was some kind of A.I developed by him, a counter to the Iron Man armour? Though he could always just ask-

I am a product of the reach a means to protect and serve the people of the reach and [error] The entire screen glitched as Khaji-Da encountered some form of internal memory glitch. As the screen resolved itself Jaime decided not to probe anymore in the scarabs purpose.

"Well, who are the-" There was an explosion below them, Jaime kicked back as wings pulled bringing him to a sudden stop midair as he looked down at the ground. He could see people running from the explosion as other people seemingly walked right out of it. Still on fire as their clothes burnt away.

"What am I looking at?"

[ERROR] [ERROR]

Jaime concentrated, pushing his mind into that of the scarab as much as possible. Willing it to answer his question, whatever was going on had it terribly unhappy and that wasn't useful to him right now. What he needed was answers, he wasn't a superhero but he couldn't just stand by while bad things were happening. This suit was designed to protect afterall, apparently. "What am I looking at Scarab?"

[ERROR] [ERROR]

"Tell me-"NOW He didn't say the last part, but Jaime pushed with all his might the concept of telling him, the idea of the Scarab telling him what he wanted to know. That had to be how this thing worked, right?

Detecting rogue #:&%^$% reboot:// alien units. Suggest using plasma cannon.

"Ugh, always with the killing." He looked down, as the so-called 'aliens' shambled towards the nearest inhabited building. Jaime would have sworn they were zombies if not for the blue bolts of energy they occasionally shot. "First of all, do you have any defensive capabilities?" Suddenly ideas and schematics thrust themselves into Jaimes head, disorientating him slightly so much that he fell a good ten feet before managing to get back to hovering. "Que demonios?"

I have just given you access to defensive subroutines

"Okay, a little warning next time please." Jaime tilted forward, heading directly for the ground as he saw one of the shambling, Zombiens or whatever they were, aim its arm at someone. A blue lance of energy heading straight towards them. He got there first, going into a knee his put both his hands together in front of his face forming a dome shield which deflected the energy blast. He could feel himself getting pushed backwards slowly, until he regained his footing.

Recommend aiming for the head complete decapitation is optimal procedure

"Ay, always with the killing. No. We do it my way." He put the shield down, he could feel the pull, the force of Khaji-Da trying to redeploy it. He felt like he was fighting his arms as they were willed to move. That wasn't going to happen. So long as he was alive it was his body.

Jaime Reyes I recommend against this plan we are leaving ourselves open to attack

Jaime ignored the voice as he shouted over the din. "I don't know who you pendejos are, or where you came from, but you better head back there! Because the-" Think Jaime, think of a Superhero name. Something that sounds threatening, intimidating, yet makes sense for your outfit. Something that will be Zombiens run away in fear. Something truly- "BLUE BEETLE! Is here to stop you."

Jaime could have facepalmed if he wasn't stood, arms on his hips, one leg forward, trying to look impressive and intimidating. Blue Beetle? That was the best he could come up with. That wasn't scary, wait, was it not already taken?

DAEDALUS // UNKNOWN SPACE

The Daedalus followed the flight plan forwarded to them, as they flew as close to the Aegis as possible the cannons on the surface of the massive ship erupted in a flare of activity. Caldwell nodded to Marks who worked on beaming explosive devices on the ships as their shields weakened and faltered. Soon the battle was over, the rag-tag fleet existed in a debris field of two Venators, the Leviathan and a handful of the smaller ships. The final Venator drifted aimlessly through the void, as no doubt the remaining crew rushed to try and keep the ship from blowing up. Escape pods began to jettison from all over the ship.

Caldwell tapped the key on his console. "Daedalus to all ships in the fleet. I recommend we execute a hyperspace jump immediately to the discussed co-ordinates within the Transitory mists. I really don't want to stick around and wait to see what else these guys can throw at us."

DAEDALUS ENGINEERING // UNKNOWN SPACE

Sheppard smirked. "Well, since we're being all truthful and everything. It isn't even our technology too begin with, our allies gifted it to us-" The bulkhead opened to the engineering control room. Doctor Novak looked up briefly before returning to whatever diagnostic she was running beforehand. McKay excused himself and walked over to a console with due haste to assist, but also to pour over as much sensor data as possible. Hermiod raised his head as he looked at the group of people walking in. Sheppard, and a group of unknowns. Likely from one of these other vessels that were from other universes.

He had already been briefed on the situation and was already working on the sensor readings of what happened. Alternate Realities were something the Asgard had toyed within their infancy, however for millennia they had had no interest in the technology. There was little benefit to it other than pure curiosity and the Asgard had abandoned those pursuits long ago. Instead, they had sought answers in their own universe, to pick up after the Ancients disappearance in being a guiding hand for the Galaxy as the Nox became recluse and the Furlings vanished into obscurity. When the degradation became evident in their genetic template became obvious, that became a focus for many Asgard. As did the threat of the Replicators. Few cared for exploration anymore, but Hermiod had a curiosity within him. Which was why he was here with this infantile race. At Thors request aiding them in their continued, rapid, advancement onto the galactic stage.

Sheppard pointed towards the grey alien. "-This is Hermiod. He's the Asgard Technician aboard our ship, the race responsible for gifting us with beaming technology. However, you should probably head back to your ship. We'll probably be wanting to leabve this area of space."

Noted; posted accidentally and trying to delete it until timeskip. @Sep

@DisturbedSpec

It's fine, you and Data can have your little introduction first. That's the whole point, that you're brought in Universe at the same time as us, just complications result in you not appearing at the same place.

Star Wars - Galaxies at War[MULTIVERSE SPACESHIP RP]

@DisturbedSpec So we got a timeskip coming in the IC, you and Datas ship will be there post-timeskip with a seamless transition. So you can do your thing with Data until then, but after the timeskip you'll be part of the fleet.

@mattmanganon, PM will give you information.
