"Nnnngh." Aki groans as her mind is easily toyed with. "Khhh." As her train of thought disappears, she blames her headache on the scent wafting from the fat pig. Giving him a glare, just before their guest arrives. Aki is a bit surprised, perhaps this school was more powerful than she thought. Which would make it all the more worthwhile to conquer. "Yes, I am." She nods, with her luggage already prepared days in advance.
Feeling claustrophobic with the three men surrounding her, Magenta shrunk in her seat further. Worry and panic started to fill her that Mark might return while she was being accosted by these three strangers and she was getting infuriated that she wouldn't believe them when she said she wasn't a porn star. But after a brief moment focusing on breathing and what she needed to do to get these guys to leave her alone she settled a little. It was sitting there, surrounded by three strangers that the idea of her deal with the spirit came to mind. But she couldn't do that when she was on a date with another guy! But she needed to get them to leave. "Look. I really am not a porn star. Those videos you saw online they're..." she couldn't bring herself to lie and tell them it wasn't her. She probably should have, but at this point they likely wouldn't believe her. "They aren't porn." That admission was probably a mistake, but she was too frazzled to care at this point. "What do you guys want huh? Do you want to see my tits?" Quickly she summed up her anger and pulled down her top letting her breasts out into the open air and their gaze. "Do you wanna see my cunt?" she spread her legs and her dress scrunched up around her waist exposing her shaved pussy. "Whatever it is just make it quick okay. Please."
“I’ll take all you bitches on!” He taunted them, weapons or not, it was clear from the smile that on some level he was enjoying this. As he dealt with the first, then realized he had been cut. The damage looked real. As he mentall processed it, it began to sting a little. “Fuck. It hurts. Why would they make it hurt?” He wasn’t sure if it was just his mind telling him, but his thoughts boiled over to rage as he cracked his knuckles. This was just borderline suicidal to fight like this, but he was now completely focused on beating the one who cut him into the ground.
"Typical. You always got spoiled." Julia chuckles. "You're seriously asking if I want the power to set people who irritate me on fire? Power and no responsibility sounds great." She smirks, before reaching out and touching Sophia's cheek. "Soph... I, uh... I just wanted to say I'm proud of you. And I couldn't ask for a better sister, you know?" She shakes her head as a car pulls up out front. "Enough of that - dad's here."
"It was kind of a sticky situation - not sure if I could do it on command, but I'm sure you could with training. Like I said, it's the same principle as grandpa's exercise with the fish, just on a bigger scale." Rebecca shrugs. "Actually, a couple, yeah." Siobahn nods. "One goes through the forest. The other winds along the coast. It's a tough ride, lots of turns, but it's a hell of an experience going 120 down it." The punk girl says enthusiastically, before her watch, and all her compatriots', start to beep. "Crap, that time already? Alright team, let's move out." The Irishwoman says. "Pfft, sure thing, 'captain Ireland'." Lin says, voice dripping in sarcasm. "Later, Viccie." Victor feels Lin's hand touch his ass, before she and the rest of the punks stand and move out. "Hmph. Starting to regret bringing you up here." Rebecca stares at Lin's back as she leaves, swaying her hips. "Alright - time to show you your room?"
"Then let's get going as soon as possible." He says to Mei and Aki. "We've had reports of attempts to kidnap new students before they can make it to the Academy. Once we're there, you'll be safe, so I want to make sure that point comes as soon as possible." He turns and leaves the way he came, gesturing for them to follow. Out in the courtyard, Aki sees the air shimmer in front of her, before a jet seems to materialise from nothing. A ramp slides down from the rear of the craft, leading inside.
"That is... troubling news." Aki replies, So another organization is aiming to train superpowered individuals of their own? She thinks to herself, moving to get her luggage, before joining the others in the courtyard. "Hm?" She raised an eyebrow as she saw the air shimmering, before a futuristic jet reveals itself. Impressive... to think they can get something like this. I will have to work hard to make sure to acquire the academy's technology. She smirks, as not even their private jets had such high-tech capabilities. "Good bye. When I return, that ring better be ready." Aki moves towards Lee, whispering into his ear, before giving him a light kiss on the lips. After which she makes her way up the ramp, though with how short her skirt was, a simply breeze allows Lee to see the lacy panties she had underneath her pantyhose.
"Right, right, sure." The guy says idly, clearly not listening to her. Magenta might have intended her display to shock and shame the men hounding her, but it doesn't have the intended effect. The sleazy men lick their lips, eyeing up her breasts and cunt, in disbelief that a 'porn star' is showing off the goods to them in public. She feels rough, muscled hands, worn from manual labor, squeezing at her breasts, pressing past her lower lips to explore the damp canal beyond. Yes. Yes... The spirit 'rewards' her with a rush of ecstasy. Magenta's mouth opens and her eyes close as she exhales sharply from the rush, only for her to hear the artificial click of a phone camera. Her eyes bolt open, only for her to squint as the flash goes off in her face. "Get the date, bro." One of the men holds his phone in front of the first man's camera, and there's another click. "Shit, we'll leave you to your date, girl." The leader chuckles, saving the photos. "But you's gonna have another date with us afterwards - or your boyfriend might just see some pics of you on the internet and realise you was letting guys feel you up while he was gone. Lemme get your number."
Spoiler: Combat Roll 0 Successes+2 The ninja in front of Lucas recoils in surprise as the young man moves forward, rather than retreating. He gets inside the range of the sword and raises his fists, feeling the satisfying pain of his knuckles crashing into the guy's face, crumpling the thin layer of his mask and impacting against tooth and bone. The man goes down, and Lucas gets atop him, raining blow after blow onto his jaw with satisfying crunches, before the guy dematerialises. Then, Lucas feels a chain wrapping around his neck, his face bulging as the man behind starts choking him out. In front, the other remaining ninja raises his sword, but before he can slash, Miriam rushes forward, throwing a punch of her own. The guy falls to the ground, as Miriam rubs her bruised knuckles.
(Is he still being choked?) God dammit. This many opponents at once was going about as well as could be expected, as he felt the attempt to strangle the life from him. To his surprise, Miriam showed herself not afraid to throw a punch at them and from what it looked like, it hurt too. At first, he had just wanted to bang her. But she was growing on him a little. Banging her was still pretty high on his list of priorities regardless. But first….knowing he had to get out of this situation, he’d have to escape from being grabbed like this. It was hard to say how many more were lurking and the simulation probably won’t end until they’re all finished. There was a risk, but he tried to channel his powers again to create a high intensity wave in the area behind him. This was all computer generated so collateral damage didn’t matter, but he knew he could risk hurting himself and his teammate from his very real force if he wasn’t at least a bit careful.
“You did not hear this from me, but setting annoying people on fire can be a lot of fun.” Sophia chuckled before turning serious. “Thanks, sis. Know that I am proud of you as well, and that I am glad to have you. You're the best older sister I could ask for.” She gave her sister another quick hug, then looked out the window at the car that had just arrived. “Agreed, let's go say 'hi' to dad. After you.”
'Sounds great, we gotta go for a ride there when we get the chance,' Victor nodded to Siobahn. 'L-later, Lin,' He blushed when they left and Lin squezzed his butt. He turned to Rebecca, kind of relieved to be alone again, 'They're a strange bunch. Siobahn's cool, and the dudes don't talk much, do they? And Lin... she's... friendly. She a psychic or something?' 'Yeah, sure, if there's nothing else you wanna do here, we can go check out my room,' Victor nodded.
(Yes) Spoiler: Combat Roll 1 Success Lucas feels the chain tightening against his neck, before it snaps and the ninja goes flying back, hitting a support beam and disappearing. The man Miriam decked, the only remaining foe in sight, stands, drawing two sai from his waist, as Miriam runs back behind Lucas and out of range.
Outside, they see their father, an elderly man in an expensive suit, smirking at one of the maids as she moves around to remove his coat. "Ah, Sophia." He says sternly. "I'm glad I was able to make it - I have a meeting in Hong Kong tomorrow, but luckily there was a vacancy today."
"That's one way to put it. She didn't go too far, did she?" Rebecca sighs irritably. "Hmm, psychic? Maybe. Never really learned what her powers were specifically." She shrugs. "Stupid bitch, harrassing my cousin. Fuckin' slash her if she doesn't cool it." She mumbles under her breath as she leads him out. Heading back downstairs, Victor hears more moaning from the room he passed before, and then they're outside again, the sky dark above them. Rebecca makes a b-line for the main mansion, passing through the immaculate entry hall and ascending the stairs to enter the dorms. As Victor approaches one of the doors, a key materialises out of thin air in front of him. Slotting it into the keyhole, the door opens up, revealing a spacious bedchamber. More impressive, though, is the fact that almost all his stuff is in here - even some stuff he kept on Constantin's boat that should be on the bottom of the ocean. Hell, some of it has seaweed on it! "Weird, huh? Part of the headmistress' magic powers. Don't ask me how it works." Rebecca says. "Okay, I'll give you some privacy, but I'll be right next door if you need me." She hesitates, then gives him another hug, then heads into her room.
"Ha.." He panted a bit as he felt the increasing strain of being in such a draw out battle. While the damage from holograms might not kill them, reckless abuse to his body might. It was for a brief second he froze, feeling what felt like all the blood in his body pumping just stop for a second, his heart held in place before continuing and taking massive ragged breaths. But there wasn't much left now. And while his body was strained, Miri was running to him for protection. If he screwed this up now, it wouldn't look cool. Working what energy he had left, his next opponent was armed. There was probably no way to avoid getting hit. His mind began to recall his previous training battles with his trainer of what to do. " Eat a green leaf and you'll feel much better! Then wiggle! Nothing can withstand the power of wiggling!" ...not helpful. He tried recalling his mother's advice. "Hm? Just resplit the particle waves through the y quadrant at axis point .204 to adjust for- ...dad? "Fear is only in the mind." Right. Resolving that there was about no way to avoid getting hit, he resolved to take a massive risk. When they met in the rush..take the stab attempt directly and respond with a full force punch into his throat.
"W-Wha?" Lee jumps in surprise at her words. As Aki ascends the ramp into the sleek, militaristic style interior, she looks back at her boyfriend. He's not quite big enough for his bulge to be prominent, but the awkward way he stands makes it clear she left him with a hard on. Aki's respect for the Academy's tech increases as the man moves to the front of the craft and stirs it to life, the jet rising into the air. Aki's rocked back in her seat as it zooms through the sky, the body of the craft turning transparent and creating the illusion that the Japanese heiress is sitting on thin air. In a manner of minutes, the land below is replaced by ocean, as the invisible craft screams over the Pacific. "I wouldn't worry too much - they haven't gotten any prospective students yet, whoever they are. I was watching over your house for a few days - no one entered without being invited - though you were acting kind of sketchy, moving in and out of the place at night." The Academy staff member looks at Mei.
Spoiler: Combat Roll 1 Success+2 Miriam touches Lucas' back again, and he gets another dose of that incredible power, his mind assaulted by dopamine and adrenaline, as his muscles course and harden, power both physical and gravitational soaring through him. He steps forward before the ninja is ready, fist flying forward. His knuckles make contact with the man's neck, and the skin and muscle crumples like paper. Then, his hand gets wet. LETHAL MOVE DETECTED. WARNING APPLIED. FURTHER INFRACTIONS WILL BE PUNISHED WITH DEMERITS. HEROES DO NOT KILL. The ninja disappears, then the temple, then the mountain, and suddenly Lucas experiences the disorienting sensation of being back in the bland metallic chamber, all stimuli cut off. "D-Do you think they're mad at us?" Miriam squeaks.
"I see, that is assuring." Aki responds as they lift off, though at the thought of her home being watched with her unaware of it. "That is... I suppose I should thank you for the protection?" She mumbles, but at the mention of her acting sketchy. "What?" Aki was surprised, she was never one to sleep walk. "No, perhaps someone was messing with your scouting?"
"You can if you want to." The gruff man shrugs indifferently. "I don't-" He's cut off by Mei. "What we do is none of your business. I'll be having words with your boss about this policy of yours - I'm not a fan of having strange men watching me at night." The guy shrugs again.
