Superpowered War IC

The city of London, it was sprawling with life, busy people walking past trying to get to their destination without being run down, it was a sea of people, in the distant stray gunshots could be heard, it didn't matter, not to anyone here unless it was at them, there was a building, to most it was closed down, a big shopping centre, on the inside it was dusty and broken, missing parts everywhere, it was like a tomb, and suddenly a radio echoed through.

"This is General Hammond, I take it you are on the pursuit of Subject Delta" The radio crackled, the man with the radio clicked the button, he was a regular police officer.
"Hunt him down…"

the Police Officer noticed 'Delta' as he was labelled, he aimed the Enforcer pistol he was wielding, it was a 9mm caliber pistol most officers in England used, as he aimed it it levitated out of his hand, and across the room, Delta turned and held an arm out, a sharp shadow slipped out from under the officer, engulfing him, and nothing was left.

Delta's hazy blue eyes turned back to the city, he stared almost soulless, anyone would think this to be a demon, but he was lonely, he longed for a friend, he just hoped it wasn't a man because of all the trouble he put up with before he got his powers…
He sat down on the ledge and watched the people under him, he was surprised, the voices were awfully quiet today.

Germany, a beautiful and harsh land. At least, it was beautiful; the meteor seemed to have severely affected here too. The people on the other hand, if they didn't know who you, were quite pleasant. Unfortunately the active police force was on a search for many missing, 'special', people and they kept chasing Donatella. A cop in Italy had his radio turned too high and she heard from it that they were searching for 'Delta', 'Zeta', 'Upsilon', and 'Omega'. The police coverage everywhere seemed to be getting thicker and they grew to become sharper, more thorough, in their search. Especially on the borders and in major cities.

"Gah!" Donatella gasped as she tripped on a dark box. Cursing under her breath she picked herself up and took off running, like she had been doing before her fall. ~Just a little further~ She thought, encouraging herself to move faster and farther.

"He! Über hier! Upsilon ist den Alliierten hinabgegangen!" (Hey! Over here! Upsilon went down the ally!) A local official called to his team. Donatella glanced over her shoulder, they were getting closer. Between the shadows her red eyed dog followed.

"Companion, go ahead and find a dead end with a shadow big enough for Void Displacement." Donatella instructed, panting. Companion waited by a near by side street. Turning down that way there was a large pile of garbage with a fair sized shadow. Reaching her hand toward it she called in he mind ~Void Displacement~ and rolled into the shadow, Companion following.

Donatella sighed in relieve, still panting. "Thanks again, Companion" She patted the dog when her breathing slowed and together they headed through the white nothingness to find a shadow to pop out of.

Alexander continued running through the streets of Prague, trying to avoid the group of police officers that were chasing after him. They'd been following him for the better part of an hour, and despite his best efforts, Alexander hadn't been able to throw them with any of his best tricks, and was nearly out of energy when he realized that he was right next door to the Prague International Airport.

"I've got to get out of here..." Alex muttered to himself. Using the last of his energy, he conjured one last illusion of himself running away from the airport, but he was too weak and it faded away after just a few seconds. "Damn..."

Alex quickly walked through the terminal and found an airport worker who actually spoke english, and, when prompted to give his destination, paused for a moment. He hadn't really thought about it. His plan up to this point was just continuing to go east, the farther from the source of his problems, that crash site, the better. The next stop on his journey would be Moscow, but... The voices in his head had been acting up more lately. The one he'd been hearing the most was a German voice, so, after a moment of thought, Alex told the woman behind the counter, "Berlin. I need one ticket to Berlin."

Two hours, a slightly stolen meal, and an appearance change later, Alex was onboard a plane flying back west to Germany.

Nickolaus was running through the chilly streets of Stockholm. Running, running... That's all he did these days. He managed to freeze a couple of officers after they tried to tase him. The words echoed in his mind... "Ta inga fångar! Döda Ämne Omega!"(Take no prisoners! Kill Subject Omega!) He looked down at the concrete below him. From the rooftop he was on, the ice sculptures he made looked like snow crystals. Ironic, he could make those from his palm. Nickolaus heard sirens from below. He had better run away.

He touched the mark on his neck. "Ta inga fångar..." He wondered... No, the stranger hadn't caused this problem. But who had? All Nickolaus remembered was that he was warming a fire and got colder than ever. The ability to manipulate ice... And those voices... He was insane. Why did this happen?

'Hello gifted one, it is time to reveal myself' a voice echoed in Desmonds ear, this one had never vocalized before, and now all the subjects could hear it, Desmond looked outward, a small shadow was sat next to him, his Familiar 'Spook' was playfully kicking its feet and looking at the city below with purple eyes.

'I am an ally, I need you to meet me in France, at the Eiffel Tower, in seven days, if you do not make it, the truth, and the way to blend in to society again, may be lost to you forever'

The voice rang in everyones minds, all of the subjects, Desmond absorbed Spook into him and leapt down, charging down the side of the mall, he sprung off of the wall and leapt with a great stride over a fence, he wanted this 'blending' the voice offered, he came into the path of a police car, as it pulled over recognising him as a subject he launched 2 black darts at them, the shadows swept through the glass and incapacitated the opponents.

As the car slowed he stopped it cooly with a light touch of his foot against the bumper, he walked round and ripped open the door, pulling one of the officers out out, he climbed in and made sure the engine was working, he had no idea how to drive a vehicle, he turned and punched the other out of the car, he shut the door and revved the engine, it still worked.

He slammed his foot on the pedal, the wheels span furiously and screeched, he powered forward trying to steer correctly, zooming through the quiet streets he looked behind him, police cars were chasing him, and his reflexes were put to the test, he flicked the handbrake and began zooming backward, facing the officers he put one arm forward, firing a telekinetic ball, it smashed through the windscreen and hit the floor knocking cars around, including his pursuers, he handbrake turned again and sped forward away.

'one problem is, security is tight around here' the voice whispered solemnly.

The new voice echoed in his ears. "Stop torturing me!" Nickolaus shouted angrily, giving away his position. Officers saw him and yelled for backup. "Där är han!"(There he is) Nickolaus stared at the eavesdroppers and stood there... Until a brave officer decided to climb a ladder up to where he was standing. Things couldn't get worse than this.

He remembered his staff, strapped to his back. The officer's fingers were on the roof's edge now... Nickolaus brought out his staff and whacked the officer's hands, freezing them. The cop let out a yelp of pain and his hands noticeably severed- everything fell to the ground except his hands, which were firmly glue to the shingles. The cops down below stared in awe at their fallen ally. "Tillbaka upp! Vi behöver det!" (Backup! We need it!)

Nickolaus was now in trouble. For once, he wished the voices were here, to give him advice. He was on his own here. He needed to find a way to get to Paris before more forces came.

"Focus, you need to head to the Eiffel tower Nickolaus, you NEED to" the voice rang, and suddenly Desmond realised there may be another like him, he pressed on the pedal more but realised he was already on his way to the coastline, he needed to use a ferry to get to france, to find the source of the voice.

A haunting voice echoed in Donatella's mind. This voice had visited her a few times prior, encouraging her to let it in. This time it sounded urgent, almost fearful, and very motivated. Companion slept beside her legs where she sat in the void. They had settled down a few kilometers away from where they first entered the place of white nothingness.

"The Eiffel Tower?" The shadow dog stirred at the sound of her voice, it's red eyes slowly blinking awake. "Companion, we have a destination and very little time to get there." Standing up she encouraged her dog to wake up faster so they could get a move on. "The nearest shadow is where we'll get out at, then we're finding a map." She said after taking off into a run.

At the warning of the tightened security Donatella came to the conclusion that most of her travels may end up being by the void. The voice also mentioned another name, Nickolaus. She wondered who he was, if he was ranked like her. Maybe he was the Delta, or the Omega? She would just have to hurry to the famous tower and see who showed up.

"Faster Companion, We really gotta move."

Desmond realised he had sped near the area Portsmouth, he had looked on his phone while driving learning that a ferry was about to leave for France, he looked up, realising he was driving through a field, he cursed and swerved back onto the road, he could see the ferry on the horizon, near the ocean, the ocean, it looked so beautiful, he swerved down the road and looked behind him, the police were gone, he was happy, he was watching the road carefully, 16 and already driving, 'look at me' he thought, he was proud of himself, he turned on the radio, and it buzzed to life, and to his luck one of his favourite songs came on, he began singing along to it.
"The Seven Nation Army cant hold me back" he said in rhythm tapping the steering wheel happily, this was the first time he was happy in ages, he then used his telepathy.
'This is, as the government calls me, Subject Delta, I am coming to the Eiffel Tower, I don't know what its like on your end, but I would love to make new friends, I'll see you there everyone' he watched the road carefully, hoping his message got through, he then watched as the ferry was departing, he growled and turned right, gliding off of a ledge, without time to think what an idiot he had been he grinded across a loading crane, holding the door open he was scared as hell, as it flew off the end of the crane he was speeding towards the ferry, just before his car fell into the water he leapt, sliding across the deck of the ferry, he got to his feet and then fell to his knees again, his whole diaphragm was quaking, turning round he saw he incredible feat he did and roared in triumph, with the look of dumbfounded ferry travellers looking at him astonished.

A new voice entered the recesses of Donatella's mind, slowly pressing forward. It startled her enough to stop and look behind her. Donatella's heart pumping as hard as it could to keep up.

"I swear someone just spoke to me..." Companion nudged her leg with it's cold nose. Looking down she answered her pet: "Yes, we're getting close to a shadow, i feel it too. Ok, lets keep going."

As Donatella ran she tried to access that underused part of her mind. At first she thought ~This is Upsilon, i'm on my way~, slowly pressing it into different areas of her mind. Finnaly after many attempts she hit the right spot. Quiet and choppy at first she managed to get a small message out. 'Upsilon, on way'.

Empty, white space passed her and her forever shadow as they ran at an unceasing pace. Donatella gasped at the sight of a black shade. They are special creatures in the void. Each one full of eons of information if you wish to talk to it's front, and a shadow portal on it's back. Donatella would have to supprise the shade to evacuate from the void. Shades can be cranky reatures and they especialy hate people using their portals.

"Companion, you know what to do." The shadow dog separated it'self from her shadow, running on the ground actively distracting the shade. "Hup!" Donatella jumped, as she came in for her landing Companion latched back onto her shadow and they both fell through the shadow portal. Donatella rolled out of a distroyed building's shadow. "Companion?" Her eyes searched the ground, finally meeting up with two glowing red ones. Cautiously she peaked around the corner, all clear. She slipped out and began to walk down the street.

After walking many blocks and turning many more corners she found a tourists station, what was left of it at least. Old, soiled maps littered the vacinity, stiring with the wind. Last Donatella checked she was in Koblenz, Germany. Now apperently she was in Luxembourg, France. Silently she thanked the void for having portals that didn't make any sence distance wise. After pocketing the map she moved toward the closest major intersection, trying to get her barings. 'Upsilon, Luxembourg' Donatella managed to whisper out to the rest of the gifted.
