RPG Millenium Hunters [pg13]

[Muad'Dib]

OOC: here goes...

IC: Jack sat at a small desk in his only-a-little-comfortable room, tinkering with a highly explosive grenade. He took it apart, examined it's contents, and added a few things. His room was covered with posters of nuclear explosions and different models of grenades.

Lita walked in through the metal door and stood next to him, watching.

It took him a few moments to notice she was there.

"Wha...? Oh, Lita, hey." He looked up from the now fully intact grenade.

"What is it this time Jack?" she said, reaching for the explosive.

"Nitro-glycerine, C-4 mix." Lita quickly put it down. "It's actualy got two different cannisters in there, and when you push the button, a spark lights both!"

"Uh-huh.." Lita tried not to seem to confused, because she knew how much Jack liked to explain the explosive qualities of his grenades to her.

All of the sudden, a loud speaker came on and a voice said...

"All members of the "Giant-Slayer" hunter group, report to docking room immediatly."

"That's us." Lita jogged out the door, and Jack quickly put away the grenade and grabbed his cloak, wich contained most of his "master-pieces".

The rest met them there and everyone arranged themselves in a line. Their supperior marched out in front of them, a video panel in his hands.

"This morning, an enemy in the form of 'Goofy' was spotted near the Texas border. It has already killed five people, and injured sixteen. You know what to do. DISMISSED!"

*Duncan lay in his short twin bed in the small room provided to him by the "Ghostrider" Hunter team in there small Californian headquarters. Suddenly the door swung open as a pair of twin girls marched in, followed by an African American man with long dreadlocks, and finally by Tara. The two girls where identicale in form, but not color scheme. One had white hair, though she was obviosly only in her early 20s, and wore mostly white clothing. Her name was Heather Connoly, aka Tempest, who held power over the weather. Her twin had brown hair, and wore earthy colored clothes. She was Trish Connoly, aka Rictor, and held power over the earth, able to cause minor tremors and control their effect. The man was Gerald Gibbins, aka G-Shock (sorry, I couldnt resist) whose power was to radiate intense, nearly blinding amounts of light from his body. And ofcourse u all know Tara, the little loner girl. Trish and Heather were both from California before discovering their powers and joining the Ghostrider squad. Gerald had grown up with Duncan, and they both discovered there powers the same time.*

Gerald - Hey, Duncan. Get your *** outa bed and lets get going.

Duncan *struggling against the fattigue* - Wha...WHat? Go where?

Gerald - Man, did you not hear the anouncement. We gotta meet the general in the breifing room for our next asignment. Now get ur lazy good for nothing *** outta bed and get dressed. We gotta be there in 2 minutes.

Duncan *rubbing the sleep outta his eyes* - ahhhhhh ****. You guys go ahead. I'll meet up with ya.

Heather - Alright. Just dont take the shortcut phasing through our room again.

Duncan - I swear, that was the last time.

*The others began to leave his room as Trish wispered to Heather "thats what he said the last time." Duncan struggled to through on his pants and boots as quick as possible. He grabbed his shirt and jacket and a swig of mouthwash as he raced out the door after the others.*

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, it has begun. If anyone else joins, I can always find a way for one of these other characters to "disappear." He he he.

Lita sighed it seemed like there where more and more missions each day,but she didn't complain.Jack ran out and Lita followed at a slower pace.
"Lita hurry up".Jack said looking behind him.
"I'm hurring".Lita anwered and ran up next to him they soon stood in front of the jeep they rode Jake toke his postion as driver and Lita sat beside him with her legs crossed.Jack started the engene and speed toward the location where the killer was.Lita watched as the plan dirt senery.She wished her parents hadn't moved from the Keys.There was no place to surf in Texas and even if she did find a place she would probley be rusty and make a fool of herself also she barly had any free time sence she joined hunters.BEing in the hunters was fun at times but she couldn't really use her powers because of the storge of lakes,rivers, and oceans.What she missed most about the Keys was her boyfriend they barly wrote to each other or called she amussed that he had a new girlfriend.Lita always hoped that they would have a mission near the costline or the Keys. then she could really show Jack what she could do.Lita foused back on what was ahead of her and not what was behind.

[color=blue]Trish, Heather, Duncan, Gerald, and Tara all headed over to the briefing room for their next assignment. But on the way there...

WHOOSH! A 3-foot high tornado hit Gerald in the side. The tornado backed up and transformed into a boy. "Scared ya, huh?" said the boy. "I'm Stephen, but you can call me Whirlwind. I'll spin ya out!" Meanwhile, Trish was thinking about what weather condition was the most dangerous for tornadoes. Heather was preparing a little earthquake. Gerald was cursing under his breath, mad about that whirlwind guy taking him by surprise. His body glowed a little with a red light, an easy way to tell if he was angry. Tara asked Stephen a few questions: "So, tornado boy, are you supposed to be a villain or something? Cause if you are, you're a lousy one at that." An air blast hit Tara in the face. "Hmph," Stephen said. "I'm no villain. I'm a troublemaker." "Same thing, except on a different level," Tara said with a bored tone. "You know what? You're not as strong as you look. We better just leave you here. Come on, guys, let's go and find ourselves a [i]real[/i] mission."

Everyone went with Tara's idea and left Stephen there to pout and mutter insults under his breath, especially about Tara... Meanwhile, the group headed over towards the briefing room and saw the general there.

"You got two assignments," said the general. "The first is: There's been a few mysterious murders and kidnaps in the west part of town, in the anusement park. They say the entire park was blacked out, and there was no light at all... Well hopefully with Gerald's help, you two can see what's in the shadows... just hope your light doesn't get put out; that's all you have to worry about... Anyways, the second assignment is for you to give your team a name." "A name?" Duncan wondered, thinking of possible names. "I'll have to think about this..." "No," Heather corrected him, "we'll think of a name together!" "Though I must admit Tara might not give any good ideas..." Gerald muttered. Tara looked away from Gerald, wondering why she ever joined this team. Oh well, she decided to stay in for now...[/color]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Did we already come up with a team name? I don't think so... Hmmm...

[Outlaw]

Duncan - A team name? It better not be some lame crap like the "Giant Slayers", or "Demon Butcherors".

Gerald - Fo sho sucka.

*high five*

Tara - Oh geez. Lets go before these two start doing cheers and playing grab a**.

*Duncan and Gerald shoot Tara that look. You know the look I'm talking about. That "damn, whats up ur a**" look.*

*Outside, the team loaded in an army issue huvee, there main means of transportation around the California area. After two hours of hard driving and little talk, the team arrived at the remains of a Californian boardwalk amusement park. The park had been devistated, with splinkered wood and bent gurders stroon around.*

Gerald - Damn man, what happened here.

Trish - I donno, but I hope that noone got hurt by all this.

*Duncan let out a small sorrowful sigh in response, spotting the body of a dead child under a pile of debry only a few meters away.*

Duncan - Well, Its up to us to make sure that noone else is hurt by this *******.

Tara - Than might I suggest we split up?

Heather - Yeah, we can cover allot more ground that way.

Duncan - *taking charge* Alright, so Gerald, you go with the twins, and Tara, you come with me.

*Gerald mouthed the phrase "thank you" to Duncan as the group split, obviously happy to avoid Tara.*

[color=blue]It was completely dark in the park, but there were some lights coming from the flashing guns held by the murderers. A scream was heard, and Tara and Duncan looked at each other in surprise. Sudenly, the flashes were getting closer and closer...

"Duck!" Duncan shouted. "Don't worry about me." The density of Duncan's body started to change, and within seconds, the flash got even closer. Tara and Duncan saw the outlines of two men, both with guns. One of the men tried to shoot Duncan, but the bullet went right through Duncan's body without pain. Tara fired a hex blast at the other man's gun, which backfired and shot the man instead. Duncan then increasd his density rapidly and punched the other man in the face, making him faint.

"That takes care of them," Duncan said as he and Tara walked on. As they wealked, a group of boys passed by, asking, "Hey man, who's your girlfriend there?"
"Yuck, I'm not his girlfriend!"
"Definitely not..." Duncan stammered, sounding embarrassed.
Duncan and Tara then heard the frightening hum of a chainsaw. They looked at each other and smirked. "This one's easy," they both thought. Duncan, whose density was still high, sped around close to where the noise came from. Tara fired hex blasts in a few places, careful not to hit Duncan with them. "Here, this'll help a little..." Tara's eyes glowed, allowing them to see a little bit. Within seconds, Duncan spotted the man with the saw...
BAM. Two things happened at once: The saw got Duncan, but its holder was knocked out by a kick between the legs. Tara's hex blast caused the saw to land on its holder's foot. Tara stared at the man for a while, amused.

"Come on, we gotta go," Duncan declared as he grabbed Tara and ran off in search of any other enemies, preferably the main one and not his henchmen.[/color]

[Muad'Dib]

OOC: I don't wanna spoil your fun, but the hunters are sent on missions concerning the inter-dimensional beings ONLY. And that last post didn't seem like it. I would greatly appreciate you editing it to fit those perameters. Thank you.

IC: About thirty minutes later, the team had arrived at the last known location of their target... "Goofy". They all hopped out of the vehicle and got out binoculars, searching desperately for the enemy.

"I've got something!" Lita shouted. A distant form could be seen through her binoculars.

The team immediately got back in and headed for it. At about fifty feet, they were hailed with small arms fire. The vehicle twisted around so that they could exit on the opposite side.

"Somebody fry that thing!" one of them shouted.

Jack lobbed a grenade over the side of the jeep and waited... after a rather loud explosion, the fire stopped. They looked around to see it stil standing, half blown apart. Underneath it's "skin" mechanicle parts could be seen, twiching and scorched.

"A terminator?" Jack's mouth dropped to the ground.

"In the form of Goofy....."

[Outlaw]

*Duncan and Tara ran through the winding paths of wrecked amusement park equipment and rides.*

Duncan - This is very peculiar.

Tara - What is it?

Duncan - Well, usually we are sent after beings based on movies and TV shows and what not. But those last three guys seemed to be normal people.

Tara - So?

Duncan - So, I fear that we are either facing some sort of enemy with mind control, or a cheesy comic book movie super villan.

Tara - Lets just hope its the later.

*As they ran, a gunshots could be heard nearby, followed by a blinding flash of light.*

Duncan - S***, looks like G-Shocks and the twins are in trouble.

Tara - Well whoopidy doo.

Duncan - *sigh* Come on.

*The two ran in the direction of the flash. As the approached to sight, a sickiningly maniacal laugh could be heard ringing through the amusement park.*

Duncan - I dont like the sound of this.

Tara - Why, its just laughter.

Duncan - But is sounds a heck of a lot like............*gasp* [SIZE=1]oh no[/SIZE]

*As they rounded a corner into an opening, Duncan and Tara were both shocked by what they saw. Gerald lay bleeding on the ground, holding his stomach, while the twins cowered, holding their eyes in pain, blinded by the earlier flash. Above them stood the villan played by the brilliant Jack Nicholas in the first Batman movie....THE JOKER!*

Joker - Hey kids, wanna play? MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

[Imp]

[color=blue]Tara got really mad for some strange reason all of a sudden. She fired about ten hex blasts at the Joker, then stared right at him, her eyes lighting up with fire. Duncan joined too, his density increasing rapidly every second...

Three things happened at once. The Joker held his hand up really quickly and put it down again. Another flash came. Tara's gaze paralyzed the Joker, but the light temporarily blinded her. Phase pounded Joker to the ground by beating his fists nearly at the speed of light, and a palm tree landed on them both. "Stupid hex blast..." Duncan muttered to himself. But Tara paid no attention to Duncan's comment. She squinted and tried to see, helping Duncan up. Another tree fell on Joker, who winced in pain. There was another flash, but Duncan and Tara closed their eyes quickly. Duncan tried to jump on the Joker, but he found that Joker had escaped from the two trees on him and threw one at Tara, who got hit in the stomach. Tara rolled over, got up, and stared at Joker again. "So..." she said in a sinister tone, "Joker, are you through yet?" "No," Joker said menacingly and stared back. "You should be," Tara sneered. She then chanted... "Joker, lose your power. You will fall defeated..." She waved her hands near her face slowly, still staring right at Joker. Then she clapped her hands once and stood back. Joker was in a daze. Duncan poked him, and in an explosion of light, Joker fainted, covered with ash and a little blood.

"Did we get him?" Duncan asked in a hopeful tone. "He should be good as dead," Tara sneered, putting on an evil smile. "Ah, I just love tormenting people..." Duncan looked at her with a weird look, then rushed over to Gerald, Trish, and Heather. The sky was still dark. Trish got up, still crying. "He's dead, I know it..." she cried. "He won't move!" "It's useless..." Heather sighed. "Don't worry," Duncan declared, "it's Phase to the rescue!" He poked Gerald, who winced and tried to sit up but failed, falling back in pain. Tara sat down beside him, expressionless. "He needs a doctor," Duncan shouted, sounding upset. "I'll carry him..." He picked up Gerald, who was covered in blood. With a muffled groan, he walked off with him. Tara and the twins followed.

It was nighttime outside the anusement park. "That explains why it was dark after they defeated Joker," Trish said to Heather. Heather nodded in agreement. To their surprise, there was a hospital across the street! Will Gerald survive or will he not?[/color]
