Might be a few days before I can reply to everyone, I apologize. Moving 250 miles for an internship this weekend and I start tomorrow, but I'll get to everyone ASAP!

Stay trippy, little hippie.

Why must autocorrect ruin things in a way that is not even correct?

Killjoy you're accepted now, feel free to post whenever!
Killjoy: the only thing I see wrong with your CS is the part about superhuman strength. I get we drink glowing bottles of stuff and have magic powers, but that one stretches just a little too far for this roleplay unfortunately. If you remove it and replace with some vigors or plasmids, I will accept the sheet.
Hey there Killjoy, if you want to join I will accept one more character. Feel free to fill out a CS and I'll look it over!
Ace - Thanks! I was going to do that soon, been busy D:

Sounds like a solid plan, they're going to need to sneak their way out of Med Pav so they could stumble upon her then
Kennedy's feet pounded on the cold hard concrete as she chased after the man. Her clip was far faster than his weak body could carry him and she was catching up to him rather quickly. She fought off the dizziness and uneasiness that had come over her body shortly after landing on the other side of the portal, focused on the man in front of her. She knew that it had to be the same man who had spoken for help through the first portal she saw on her way to the Knights meeting. If he wanted to get a word out to her this badly, she wanted to know why.
Looking over her shoulder behind her, Kennedy saw her crew following in stride with her several feet back. It brought a grin to her face to hear Mason still chuckling through all the chaos of leaping into the unknown. Kennedy whistled sharply once and motioned her arm around in a circle, "C'mon ladies, keep up!" She winked at them, spotting a strange, translucent looking man following also. She had seen him before... but she thought she was just seeing things, perhaps a ghost. She blinked a few times and moved on, focusing again on the man just a few steps in front of her. "Hey! Cut it out, I want to know what's going on here!" She said.
As the words left her mouth, three guards rounded a corner about fifty yards down the hallway behind the group. "No time!" The man said as he jumped into the elevator and motioned for everyone to jump in. Kennedy did so, and after all of her Knights were safely in the elevator, she punched the button, firing a few shots from her Hand Cannon at the guards as the doors closed. The muted sound of an alarm could be heard as the elevator began its long ascent upwards.
Kennedy turned towards the man and kept her gun casually pointed in his direction. "Explain."
He quickly straightened up and cleared his throat, though the good posture didn't last for long. He leaned against the wall of the elevator and the exhaustion was apparent in his features. Finally, he looked up to her and drew in a large breathe. "My name... is Samuel. I... I don't really know what to say."
"Not good enough, Sam. Spit it out." Kennedy leaned in closer, "I need to know why I just jumped through a... a, uh... well I'm not sure what the hell I just did, but I need to know that it was worth it!"
Samuel nodded and swallowed hard. "That place... it is hell. They've been torturing us and experimenting on us for far too long now. That 'thing' was a tear, a sort of portal to another place..." He waited for the reactions before continuing, "I know how crazy this sounds. But this is what they are doing to us, trying to tweak these powers. I'm not sure what it was... but for some reason I was able to lock on to something, and I suppose that something was you."
Kennedy stood there speechless, her gun falling as her wrist went slack.
Sam sighed, "Look, I know you aren't from here. There's no way there would be that much sunlight in Rapture. But I needed help! I've seen too many people die, I've been through too much here! I saw you, saw what you were doing. I thought you could help..." He shook his head, "But what a fool I was. They know that I have escaped, and this elevator ride will be over soon enough. I've merely doomed us all."
Kennedy was still trying to process it all. She had thought that they had jumped into merely another part of Columbia. Rapture...? Where the hell is that? Where the hell are we? She picked her gun up and placed it in her holster, thinking for a moment as she did so. She cleared her throat and looked at her Knights behind her.
"No... no we aren't doomed. I don't know what kind of a mess you've put us in mister, but we're all Knights. And Knights don't go down without on helluva fight."

Most of the characters are actually hidden under the medical pavilion, on their way up to the Med Pav now actually.
Whoa that sounds really interesting, CS accepted. Our character have just now crossed into Rapture from Columbia and have still not even had a moment to take in the surrounding. Post whenever you wish and welcome to the gang :)
Sooooo.... how is everyone? :3
In moments, the scene in the basement of the old bar had changed from calm and subtle to an uproar of chaos. Right before her eyes, and to her relief, the eyes of her comrades, the same window which she had seen earlier that day had reappeared before Kennedy and her crew. At first the others stared at it as if she had done it herself, but she stood there with her jaw agape and her eyes wide. Arch threw a knife from a dark corner of the room. Figures, he always liked to stay out of site. Kennedy moved around the portal, and the same image could be seen from all angles. In it appeared to be a couple guys roughing up a man who was obviously in awful condition to defend himself. Before she knew it, Val had grabbed one of the men and... what the hell? Did he... PULL the man into their world?
Things escalated from there, and soon bullets were flying and vigors being thrown. Kennedy reached to her side and pulled her Hand Cannon to her chest with one had while the other grew black and crystalline as she readied up her Shock Jockey. Before she could send either bullet or vigor through the window, she saw the man lying on the floor through the tear and a guard getting ready to give him a blow to the head with his baton. Her gut instinct took over and Kennedy stood, rushing towards the portal with chaos erupting around her. Without thinking, she ran through the window towards the guard. To her surprise, her feet hit the cold concrete ground of the prison.
She quickly regained herself, as the guard had noticed her sudden appearance and began to make his way towards her. Kennedy lifted her gun and sent one single bullet into the man's skull.
Samuel quickly discovered that his exhausted efforts had paid off, because a ruckus had begun and he felt one of the guards that was holding him get pulled backwards. He scrambled on the ground as the guard was distracted, but didn't make it far. He was cut down, beaten with a nightstick and about to receive the final blow when the guard suddenly shifted his attention before falling to the floor in a pile of his own blood. Brain matter and blood splattered across Sam's face, and he looked up to see the woman he was hoping to find standing before him with her gun drawn in front of her.
He didn't really know what to expect, he didn't know anything about this woman other than she had heard his first message. What amazing luck he had that she was actually a badass with a gun and a killer shot. He locked eyes with the woman and quickly looked behind him. The hallway was clear, all the way to the elevator which would lead him up to the 'surface' (if you could even call it that.) He stood as quickly as his crippled body would allow and took off down the hallway, knowing that the coast wouldn't be clear for long, especially not with the gunshots ringing through the place. His mind lingered only for a second to the other tortured souls that lay in the cages behind him, but he did not falter long, and so he pushed forward. Behind him, he could hear the footsteps of the woman echoing as she followed in stride with him.

Tomorrow I'll post the next bit and we will be extremely close to jumping into Rapture. Thank you to those who have characters waiting for being so patient, I appreciate it and I'm glad you're sticking around to help us out with this awesome story!
