A tall man wearing a bright pink suit was sipping his tea when he looked over to Bishop with a silvery grin showing off his bright white teeth,"I see your friend has expired what a shame and I thought he would be a joy to watch" The man known as Guida spoke taking another sip of his caramel apple tea that was fantastic in his own opinion.

The Bishop studied this pink-suited man for a moment.
"The Visionary? Not necessarily. He was simply unable to fulfill his mission. In the end, he committed an act of martyrdom for his cause. Though, it is true that his own agenda was supposed to be much... larger. With more grandeur, certainly. Alas, he has failed in his duty." The Bishop stepped out of the parked moving van, brushing dust off his elegant coat. "But that is a futile topic. The topic at hand should be, I think, who you are, of what do you know of my affiliation with the deceased Visionary, and how, I may ask, can you see through the illusions I have weaved?"

By the time he was out pummeling some of the face-painted thugs of the Clown Prince of Crime, The Bishop had already removed his veil over the ship, placed the containers in a rented set of moving vans, and was currently on the other side of Gotham city, heading towards what would soon be his lair. And, if need be, he could set up the veils again if the kid somehow popped up sporadically. But from what he could tell from when the kid Teo left, he seemed to be in a hurry to do something important. But still, best to be safe.

"well,il be on my way"He flys off then turns around."oh yeah,and if a crime lord moron named Bishop comes around,would ya tell me,I have a score to settle with the chess piece"

"Bishop? Sounds like a whack-job. All right. If I hear anythin', I'll let you know if I can."
With that,the fog rolled in and all the crates were stored. Visibility reduced to zero and The Bishop was finally able to temporarily rid himself of that insolent child. He told him what he wanted to hear, and he called himself a whack-job to do so. He called his own holy crusade a fanatical sham in order to throw the hero off his back. But it was well worth it. After all, from what he heard, that child was the one who ended up disrupting the Visionary's plans most often. But he would wait for a sign to see if the child was leaving before he undid the shroud.

"there was no one in the factory,thankfully""but I still s,ell cheap church perfume and candles"

The Bishop sniffs around. "Huh. I do smell candles. That's funny, though. I mean, it's Old Gotham 'n all, but there shouldn't be really any candles. Ain't the good kind, neither. The scented kind. Again, dunno bout 'church perfume' n' whatnot, but I do smell candles. Weird. Anyways, thanks for your help. Glad to hear nobody was in the factory. I think there might've been other people on board the boat that first went up, though. I just can't believe I saw... I saw people die today. I mean, nobody could've survived that-" and, looking at Teo, "-well, y'know, nobody who ain't a super or meta like you, y'know. Damn shame. This city's really goin' down in the pits nowadays, ain't it?" The Bishop asked- but he already knew the true answer. Yes, it was going into the pits- the Pits of Hell. But he didn't say that, he just did his best dockworker attitude and kept the conversation going while the Templars loaded up and the fog rolled in.

Teo gets in a fire fighter getup,and runs at the flames with a fore hydrant on his head,a few of the butler bots dressed as firemen help out too

While they were preoccupied, several of the dockworker/Templars began moving at twice the speed, carrying crates inside. The most important veils were shrouded over the crates themselves, but all of them were shrouded at a level that only a demon on the power of maybe Etrigan could see through. It was draining and very difficult to maintain for long periods of time, but desparate times called for extended endurance, and the sweat The Bishop was making was actually helping his hard-working dockworker facade. He walked over. "Thanks, kid. You did us an' pretty much every factory in Gotham a service... so are there any survivors? I dun' think so, but I really hope that at least one of 'em's alright, y'know." Just a little more time to buy, then all the crates will be loaded up.

"why do I smell,cheap church perfume?"He says,sniffing around

"What's this about churches? Buddy, I have too much shit to do in the day to worry about religion and crap. But I dun' think churches have special perfumes or whatever."

Then, before Teo could sniff out anything else, the cloud of smoke from the ship floated over to where the dockworkers were, masking all scents but smoke and fire. Everyone coughed, including the Bishop, although it didn't really bother him, and he said, "Gah, we can't work with all this smoke around, kid. Shouldn't you be over there?! There might be people you can save!"

((Hang on. The Bishop is shrouding the ship in an illusion shroud. Teo, and, really, most superheroes, at this point, should not be able to see through it at all, let alone straight through all the layers of illusion he's weaving. They obviously will figure out how to see past it later, I know, and I know you want to kill off The Bishop so I can go back to RP'ing The Visionary, so you can bring him back from the dead and reform him and make him Teo's mostly-robot side-kick, and that's cool, but at least give this villain time to set up shop, man.))

The Bishop was surprised that this hero was able to see through the first illusion shroud. That said, it was a thinly-veiled shroud, really meant to be unseen by normal civilians. But for Meta-Humans and gadget-using heroes, and this kid seemed like he was an amalgam of the two, The Bishop had several other layers weaved in place around him and his men, meant to withstand any kind of inhuman scrutiny. So, to Teo, they resembled ordinary dockworkers. The ship resembled a large cargo vessel. The crates of Holy Weapons turned into crates filled with steel and lumber and all other base production materials. The Bishop himself looked like a surly, copper-haired supervisor with a bushy mustache. "Hey, one o' them supers. Did you see that!? That ship exploded! We all freaked out, but we gotta keep working an' fill our quotas. What if there's- there's some kinda mad bomber on the loose?! I didn't see whoever did it, but please look for whoever did this. We can't work in peace with this going on."

((Pleasepleasepleaaaase don't let Teo see through it right now. Let the baddies set up their stuff and get away just this first time please. : ) ))

They came in through the harbor- an immense vessel, almost the size of a military battleship, adorned with religious symbols across the hull- crosses and intricate patterns. The ship, the SS Salvation, was manned by a small army of people clothed in chainmail armor and metallic suits. Sitting on his immaculate throne- only the best for this Messianic cleanser of evil- in the captain's quarters, flanked by three of his most trusted advisors, The Bishop waited anxiously to arrive at the docks. Through his divine will the efforts of his Holy Army remained absolutely unseen, bending the light around the vessel and pulling the wool over the eyes of the sinful sheep of Gotham. The Bishop slowly rose from his throne, exiting the captain's quarters and looking out upon the grimy, scum-filled city. He sniffed the air tentatively, then growled.

"Depravity," commented The Bishop, "Depravity and vice." He noticed a small yacht off the harbor- with flashing colored lights and people on deck: young people with alcohol and a variety of drugs. Half-naked women and men alike danced and writhed for the pleasure of the onlookers- or that was what he saw, in any case. In actuality, they were simply well-to-do teenagers dancing and, suprisingly enough, not even drinking alcohol or doing any illegal drugs. But The Bishop thought he saw a gathering for debauchery, and he was disgusted by their greed and lust. They, he decided, would be the first to die. He raised his gauntleted hand- his God Hand- and willed a ball of light to emanate from the aether. It struck the yacht and it exploded violently in a mix of light and hellfire, consuming all on board. Many more would fall before he was done, if he had anything to say about it. Obviously the young apprentice who called himself The Visionary had failed in his duty, for sin still existed in this pestilent hole. He would cleanse it. He would cleanse it all. Then they began docking and unloading the supplies under the shroud of a mystic veil.

can i revive TV?

I'd rather you didn't. I killed off The Visionary because his whole story's pretty much over and done, nothing else needs to be said about him and I already made a replacement character for the RP, and it's one character at a time, y'know. I could RP two characters, buuuut that'd be against the rules here. Also, I would personally draw the line at giving life to people. Even if he didn't just wake up as a Solomon Grundy clone, he would not be grateful for surviving as a brain stem, I would think, anyways. He'd be a little peeved and probably go supervillain again, completely tarnishing that final act of goodness that he did. He survived one explosion nix his eyes and he went nuts. If he survives or gets brought back from this second explosion nix his whole body, I think it would not work out well. Unless you try to make him Teo's version of Iron Man's Jarvis by hooking him up to some AI unit and making him the brain for Teo's supercomputer or something, but- actually, still that wouldn't be TV. If this was attempted with the idea that he would atone and become a superhero, he wouldn't. He said it himself, he's too crazy to turn back.
