[IC] No Escape For Us (PRIVATE RP)

[Nytem4re]

"Yeah, well I'll-" Konrad paused a moment as he got a radio transmission. He then got up and brushed his coat off very calmly. "While your disobedience leaves... much to be desired, you can keep the scrawny fellow." Konrad picked up the kitten by the scruff and literally chucked it towards Idera. The kitten hit the ground with a solid thud, and it cried from the pain. "It'll need another mother. It's real one and her litter just died moments ago. You got your wish." Konrad grabbed Idera and dragged her back to the room where all the other supernaturals were. The kitten held on to a piece of Idera's clothing, managing to stay with Idera.

"Congrats. You guys now have a kitten. Enjoy." Konrad dropped Idera roughly onto the ground and began to converse with the guards. Idera's O2 manipulation would present a huge security breach if ever used on a prolong scale, so he wished to discuss protocol if it did happen.

"No, I'm not busy, I can accompany you." a smirk crawled onto her face. "Problem is getting past the lobby. Heard they don't let many non-employees past the lobby." She looked at the folder, then back to him. "Anyway, shall we get going?" she said "And are you driving?". She could drive, all part of the ruse, but it still scared her, especially with another person in the vehicle.

Angel's head snapped towards the new development. "A kitten you say?" She laughed "What's happened to you Konrad? Become soft? You would have seen that thing dead if it didn't give you favorable results." Her remark undoubtedly giving chills to most, especially Idera. "But then again, you still dropped her like an ugly baby, so you aren't entirely soft. More like a slightly soggy saltine cracker" She laughed at her own remark. "Other than all that, what did you learn from that girl?"

---

Sam rushed over to Idera, the words "Kitten" that had rolled from Konrad's mouth made her filled with joy. Kittens were so soft and cuddly. "Is that the kitten?" she asked excitedly as she planted herself right in front of Idera. Not really giving much thought to how Idera had been dropped, Sam was only focused on one thing. The Kitten.

[Cartwright]

Harris shrugged, walking out into the hall. "I take it you are up to date on the case? We have about four missing kids, two of them which Special Victims Unit was involved at some point in time. Its been a couple years but since we got something we might as well open it up... That's what the lead agent told me." The agent explained, glancing over at his temporary partner as they entered the garage. "We gotta swing by Ark corp then see about why the CIA is covering up the details of these two companies... Yah.think we need to do anything else?"

[JessieTargaryen]

"Kittens get more respect than us? What the hell is this?" Jason said simply as he looked on around the room. He kept his spot by the door firmly planted,but any of the scientists looking at him could tell by the strained look on his face and the way the area around him seemed to distort, that Jason was preparing to launch an attack with his dark matter abilities.

[Nytem4re]

"Don't lecture me about being soft. Unlike you, I know how to get results, which is why the higher ups chose me to lead the research projects, and not you. I know when violence is needed. I don't commit senseless violence like you and Davis over there. And if you must know, It seems we have something new for our prototype weapons department. Her powers, if replicated, could possibly make a weapon that could kill several enemy personnel with no sign of anything out of the ordinary, except for the delivery system. One could perhaps destroy crops this way, but further research will provide us with more results.

Hearing Jason's remark, Konrad decided to give him a definite answer. "Yes. Kittens get more respect. Probably even rats get more respect than you. Because they're not snobby, snarky, and they grow up like they're supposed too, unlike you, who still seems to be a teenager full of angst that makes me want to either laugh or smash your head into the fucking wall until you finally grow a pair." Seeing that Jason was prepared to launch an attack, he laughed, and pushed a button that called for more reinforcements. " You having a little constipation there boy? You look like you're having a hard time now, I can smell the shit from here already."

[Slypheed]

Angel let out an audible sigh. "And I was sent here to prevent you from killing those who get both sides results. Plus it was merely a joke, but seeing as you do everything from a soldiers perspective, you couldn't see past the surface of a river. Always reacting, never really thinking much. You've killed off some valuable subjects in the past because of your fight or flight reactions." She looked to Jason, she didn't look amused. Pissing off Father was one thing, cause she'd still have something to work with at the end. Konrad was another story, she'd seen supers die by him. And having both in moods that meant complications to the experiments was plain out annoying.

---

Church look at Harris when he asked if there was anything else they needed to do "Get some coffee or donuts." she said with a smirk. "The good coffee too, not the bitter stuff here." She wanted something to give her energy, she was a bit exhausted.

[Nytem4re]

"You're here merely to advise Angel. Overstep your boundaries and I'll personally see to it that a firing squad riddles your body with so many bullets your mother wouldn't be able to identify you, much less figure out your body is that of a human's. That's the problem with you damn civilians. You kill one or two people and you get all riled up. It's a means to an end, though I doubt your ignorant, happy rainbow filled world wouldn't understand." Konrad was proud of his military service. It showed him the truth, that the world was unjust. Unfair. He'd work towards his own goals, scientific enlightenment, not some petty wannabe of a scientist who was only concerned with profit, of all things.

[XxLyraxX]

Father gave Imma a bored look before he looked over when Konrad entered. He smiled at the other scientist, casually walking over to him. "Nice to see you again Konrad." He said pleasantly. "I see you have been busy." His eyes flitted to Idera before flickering away to survey all of the other supers. "There are only two more new ones. This one" He said, nodding at Lilith, "appears to house two souls in one body and that one over there," Here he looked at Idera, "seems to be able to control fire." He said, pushing his glasses back up his nose. He looked over at Jason and scowled slightly. "Attack boy and you're sister will loose more than a couple of fingers." He said, hand resting on his chainsaw.

[JessieTargaryen]

"Because my Sister is the only way you can possibly harm me." Jason growled but let his powers get directed away. In a bout of anger, he unleashed a level of power the scentists had never seen. Slamming his fist against the wall, he created a dark matter black hole which sucked the matter away before disappearing. Leaving a hole in the wall, where one could see into the bedroom for the supernaturals through, though it was a small hole. "Where... The hell did I learn that?" Jason asked in a very distant tone as he passed out from the exaughstion of that much power in the light, with a dampening collar on

[Savi]

Imma's head whipped toward Idera and the kitten. She instinctly rushed over next to her as Sam slammed herself in front of Idera. Idera held the kitten in her arms like it was a baby. Idera looked up at the strange girl and smiled brightly. "Yes, a kitten silly." Imma looked down at the kitten with a questioning gaze. "Where's the mom and the other kittens?" Idera looked up at her with a saddened expression. "They didn't make it." Imma's jaw stiffened and she said to Idera "then why keep it?" Idera glared at her sister. "You aren't suggesting I kill it, are you?" Imma rolled her eyes. "Whatever." Idera shook her head. "I'm not going to kill this kitten." She looked down at it and smiled. "Instead, I'm going to call it Windy." She looked up at the other Supers and her eyes widened. "I-I mean, we'll name it together." Imma rolled her eyes and leaned against a wall.

[Nytem4re]

Konrad glanced at the wall and sighed. "And people ask why I kill subjects from time to time. They're very irritating." Konrad motioned a few guards to pick up Jason as he tapped Father on the shoulder. "Davis. Bring either Lillith or Idera into the torture chamber. I'll have the guards strap him keep him in the other room. We'll have a torture session, and Jason here just earned first row seats..."

[XxLyraxX]

Father nodded, an excited gleam in his eyes as he walked over to the guards holding a struggling and hissing Lilith. He tilted his head as he stared down at her before raising a fist and bringing it down onto her temple. The demon girl jerked before going limp and Father then slung the unconscious female over his shoulder and began walking toward the door, a happy skip in his step.

[Cartwright]

Harris chuckled, rummaging through his pockets to dig out his car keys as they went to his vehicle. "Alright maybe after we talk to Ark corp." He replied, unlocking the car doors for both himself and Church. As soon as the does were unlocked he was already climbing into the car and pulling his seatbelt on, waiting for Church afterwards.

[Cartwright]

It was a dim room Gerard stepped out of, one that smelt like blood and gunpowder from a recent scrap. He ok a few steps forward and turned around to face the results of his little job, seeing his target was dead and the files he was after were now in his hands. It was then his cellphone rang, and he picked up bringing the device to his ear. "Go ahead."

"The FBI,is attempting to look into a old case that involves pandora's box. I am in need of someone to ensure it is to the favor of our agencies that all hell does not break loose. As you know the Fallen Shadows are holding both the missing persons involved in the case as well as hostile individuals who could cause a lot of destruction if provoked to... That is where you come in. I am leaving it up to you to make any calls since we all know you would make your decision based on the welfare of the CIA.. Isn't that correct, mister Lewis?"

Throughout the conversation it seemed the spy was occupied with tampering with the heater, the stove, and a fireplace, attempting to rig an explosion with the gas. "Understood. I'll see what to do." He replied, scooping up the files and walking out of the building in a casual, calm matter.

"Good. How is the drug business coming along?" The agent didn't answer until the small house exploded into a big fireball, consuming the house and any evidence inside. It was then he made his response.

"It is... Taken care of." With that Gerard hung up the phone, heading to his car and driving away from the crime scene. It was a one way trip to Ark corp where to some he might be a familiar face... For who doesn't remember the face of a CIA agent with a 'die hard completion rate' background?

[Slypheed]

Angel rolled her eyes at the civilian remark. She was far from civilian, combat training separated Ark scientists from normal scientists. And Angel was very proficient with a blade, which explained her swift yet precise cuts with a scalpel. "My eyes are just as open as yours are Konrad. You forget my encounter with that one berserk super, its clearly stated on my file. If you wish to lecture someone on a world filled with rainbows and unicorns, then go lecture a chemist or a innocent child. If not, then I'm here for you to waste your breath on." She walked off, closing the conversation.

Sam smiled "We should call it Windy, its a nice name" Somehow Sam seemed relaxed. She didn't twitch or rock back and forth. She just stared at the kitten with a soft smile. Her eyes were soft as well. Things seemed different about Sam, like a whole different person was in her body. She reached forward and gently petted the kitten. "I haven't seen a kitten for so long"

---

Church smiled and got into the car. "So, what info can you get your hands on involving Ark Corp.?" She asked as she bulked herself in and closed the passenger side door.

[Savi]

Idera looked at Sam and smiled softly. "W-well, you can hold Windy if you want. I-I mean, Windy's yours too." Idera stared at the strange girl. When she first entered the room, she was eccentric and outgoing. Now, she's calm and collected. Imma watched the evil man drag Lillith away and she said "hey! Where are you taking her!" She quickly stepped in front of Sam and Idera to protect them and the kitten. Imma's eyes were dark with rage, her skin heating up.

[Maxxorlord]

Dark Matter sat in his chair, watching everything unfold before him in eerie silence. The conversation Jason had with Father had gone a bit over Dark's head, but it was no matter. He didn't need to understand any of the hidden threats Jason made, or the reactions Father had to them. All Dark Matter needed to know was that Jason was just asking to get himself killed. Or worse, his sister. One of the few people trapped in this place that seemed remotely normal. She didn't deserve the pain they put her through, especially when that pain truly belonged to her brother. Sometimes Dark just wanted to punch that boy square in the nose. The dark beast's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of screaming as the once compliant girl was dragged out of the room, and Dark Matter guessed she had switched personalities.

Once the scientists had left the room, Dark Matter went back to thinking in silence.

Some time passed before the door opened again, and one of the sisters was returned to them. She seemed to have some kind of small animal with her. How strange of Konrad to allow something so innocent to live. No doubt he'd tortured the poor creature, though. That man was the one who deserved to be in this cage, not Dark Matter. What am I doing? Am I...Caring for these whelps? I should kill them. Kill them all. Suddenly, Jason yelled out. Dark scoffed quietly as the boy attempted to use his powers. His scoffing turned to surprise as Jason put a small hole in the wall by producing some kind of black hole. His powers were impressive, Dark would give Jason that. But that was a reckless time to use them and show those dogs what he was capable of.

Then they dragged Lilith off. Dark Matter glared holes right into Konrad (Figuratively, of course) as the man said the things he did."You're a coward, Konrad. Torturing little girls..You have no backbone. No spine. You wouldn't dare touch any of us without your little bodyguards, or if we're strapped to a table. Are you proud of yourself? Do you think you're 'furthering science' by bringing a child to an inch of their life?" Dark Matter's anger grew, and he began to rise from his chair.

[Nytem4re]

Konrad sighed as he watched Angel leave. " If I actually gave a shit I would remember....Seems like people think they're a fucking legend after killing one person....." Konrad had seen combat in the trenches in Israel. He'd fought toe to toe against 3 to 1 odds. He mauled men to stay alive. He watched as blood was paid for every goddamned inch of land.

Murders and lowlifes are prideful in their kills, boasting about the man or woman they killed, as if murder was a medal to them.

A Soldier acknowledges that they have killed people, but never revel in the glory. After all, They only kill for duty, honor. Only when negotiations fail, and the old send the young to fight their battles. When they are given medals they accept it with humility, because they know good men had to die to earn a shiny piece of metal.

Konrad had killed people and tortured people before. But he never took much joy in it. It was only a job. Looking at Idera, he merely shrugged.

"I'm taking her to be punished. Harshly. It seems there has been a lot of rebelliousness. A lesson has to be learned. No worries. I'm not going to do anything to your sister or that kitten... at least not today."

Konrad smirked as Dark Matter decided to call him out.

"Ha. Tell that to all the supernaturals I've killed with my bare hands. I wouldn't have to do this if everyone would behave. Think you're the shit because you got some pretty little powers and decide to try and guilt trip me because you suddenly grew the fucking balls to do so? Don't talk to me about fucking morality. I can't tell from right from wrong. I wouldn't know right from wrong if I saw a rapist or a nun. I'd simply the man with the gun. Seems people have a hard time grasping a "means to an end." I do what is necessary, I do what is asked of me. I fought in Israel, against the entire damned Middle East. I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty. If you damn animals could do what is asked of you, I wouldn't have to do this."

Konrad turned and whispered to Father, already irritated with these distractions. "You can start early. A warm-up for tonight's big show eh? You can put that chainsaw to good use..." He was pretty sure Dark Matter could hear him, but who cared? Whispering even more quietly, Konrad gave a grim look as he looked at the employee door Angel went through. " Make sure Angel is watched carefully 24/7. She may be on our side, but she's a private contractor. Only looks out for the money, not science. She does anything stupid, tell me."

[JessieTargaryen]

At this point Jason, who nobody had bothered to pick up and drag away, had woken up and gotten up already. He moved to stand in front of his sister, so he was a physical barrier between them and Aries. "As much as I hate dark matter, I do agree. You sick beings always go for the weakest among us. And you say we don't have balls? Go ahead and fight any us hand to hand. Bet you we will win. You say we think we're all that because of our powers? Last time I checked 90% of us in the room were just trying to live out a normal life before you assholes grabbed us off the street. However, you still seem to believe that you are superior, that you are the ultimate beings that god meant to have on this earth. I'll let you in a secret you fuck, I've met your god. He is horribly disappointed in men such as you. He is a cruel force of nature when he becomes disappointed. When you die Mr. Konrad, I'm going to have fun with your soul in particular. You may think you're helping the world with your 'science' done here, but all you're doing is causing its damnation. There's a war coming, I've seen it in my dreams. Fires swewping over the earth, bodies in the street. Cities turned to dust. Devastation. And you will be powerless to stop it." Jason says to the man, holding a defiant glare until the end. Still standing to protect his sister.

[Cartwright]

Harris sighed as he started up the car. "Like I said I couldn't get much since the someone upstairs has made it so you need high clearance in order to view the files.. But I did manage to get some basic stuff.. And the fact there's some link between them and Fallen Shadows..." The agent explained, slowly exiting the parking garage. "You know anything about them? They sure seem to have someone's attention in the agencies..."
