'How does it feel to be different?' [Dioxide x Caits]

Alright, just the last bit of GM-ing before you take over, alright?

You have a press conference to attend. You can ask and answer questions all you want, but make sure you don't mention any names.

The three are now somewhere in Russia. You set up the details. Let's say Agent Caits knows Russian, and Cody and Gershwin don't know any. Gershwin will be passed out completely, while Cody is trying to recover physically and mentally.

From now on, you're in charge!

Part 2 - Chapter 4 - Standing Out of the Crowd

Summary of Part 1

UNARM is a UN-funded programme with the purpose of exploring and understanding the existence and fundamentals of rare, exceptional individuals with supernatural abilities called Anomalies. Deep down, however, they are a sinister organization whose leader, Big Boss, is adamant on researching, militarizing these anomalous powers for human gain. Many innocent "Subjects" have died to abuse and torture, and the issue is worsened when the first two real-offensive Anomalies, Cody O'Niel - The Anomaly of Light, and Gershwin May - an immortal manifestation of pain, are captured. This motivates Agents Dioxide and Agent Caits to help them escape. Chaos ensues, and the UN has called for a complete eradication of the UNARM programme. Agent Dioxide dies to the hands of Big Boss who is revealed to be an Anomaly himself. Cody duels and barely wins over Big Boss, Agent Caits tries to escape the military man-hunt for her, all the while Gershwin manifests into a demon-incarnate and single-handedly fights an entire army. The trio, badly injured and distraught, barely manage to escape the facility which blows up in a giant inferno. The UN's attempt to discretely obliterate the facility is thwarted when Gershwin manifests into a dragon-like being and flies off into the night sky. The whole world now worries over such a terrifying being, and there is growing tension over the actions and intentions of the UN military.

The world knows.

It was hard to ignore a flaming 100 foot high dragon-like monster fly into the night sky. The military had been riding off, pre-emptively cheering to their success when they all paused and observed helplessly as their mission for a clandestine obliteration failed. In a matter of moments, weather helicopters and amateur sky-watchers watched and broadcasted the whole scene to social media. Live footage and descriptions were uploaded to all media platforms of this monstrous flying beast as it flew across the expansive, 135,000 square mile large Kara Kum desert of Turkmenistan, over the city and into the A'ershan National Forest Park of inner Mongolia. Reports showed that on its last moments of its flight, the monster had seemed weak and flight patterns showed it was fatigued. No sooner than that, it curled into a ball mid-air before crashing down to the ground. Fires broke out, spreading fast and far among the dry trees. Flame and smoke covered the entire sky as the Chinese military helicopters searched for the monster that was nowhere to be seen, and the forest-fire brigade fought the forest fires hard. Rumour has it that along with the authorized visitors of the park at the time, there were sightings of a man who carried a small woman in his arms. Another woman was within them, clutching her supposedly injured side - but with the stress and pressure to prevent the flames from spreading, this was not followed up on. It's speculated that they were attempting to reach the Russian borders.

Questions were brought up as to where this beast could have come from. Many peopled pointed fingers to the Turkmenistan government for hiding secrets from the world. They admitted to no such faults, but many are skeptical. Many ventured out to the desert and found a geological formation that was recently set to flame. The trained eye would observe that there were buildings, infrastructure, and vehicles that burned in an artificial fire - an explosion, they hypothesized. Almost immediately, the UN sent soldiers to block off the premises and prevent on-lookers from further probing - but this only sparked more curious, flame, and anger as to what was going on that the public didn't know.

Internally, the UN higher-ups put pressure on Ms. Maria Gerda Jordan, who was the deciding vote of the enacting of the UNARM programme, and the leader heading the programme, as to "what the fuck is going on." The German woman sits in her office, dealing with her prepared, heavily-edited notes for the first of perhaps many emergency press conferences on "what the fuck is going on". Many eyes around the world will look to see what she, the face who the PR decided to put to blame on the most recent events, will have to say.

It's been barely a week. There has been no confirmed sightings of Agent Caits, Cody O'Niel, and Gershwin May.

The world knows, and they're worried and scared.

Alright, I'm writing up a small post now. It'll be a time lapse, giving some general info and happenings as we move to present day. Then you can start your post as Agent CAits, Cody, and most importantly, an introductory as well as a real (I mean this in the 'already dealing with stuff' way) post for our UN respondent.

Let's get Part 2 on the road!

Middle aged German Woman

Kind of fitting how this German character's image is of the German Chancellor, Angela Merkel! Very awesome job. Maybe you can flesh out the history by writing rumours like: rumour has it that she once forced her secretary to unstaple all 3,000 pages of paperwork one day, had her staple them on the top right instead, but hid all the staples and staplers

Something like that! But overall I really like the profile!

I am thinking about chhanging his image though. I don't really like it now.

@Caits

I kind of agree. Far too prolific (It's David Beckham for crying out loud hahah) and he looks old with that picture. I can help you find some samples if you want

Colour me impressed!

You make my CS for Gershwin look like crap xD

I'll polish it up soon, you rascal!

How goes the other character, if I may ask?

Ours is called Klein, like the underwear. He's really small for someone who's 10 years old

Angel in his sleep, demon when he's awake

XDDDD

HK is currently experiencing the very tail-end of a typhoon, and it's actually fairly strong, considering that only the edge hit us. Had it been the eye of a typhoon, we might have seen actual damage. Fun fact, our most severe typhoon warning signal here, is actually pitiful compared to other countries. Our Number 10 Typhoon Warning Signal is a Class-1 Tsunami.

I have a cat though :D

He likes to keep me company when I'm up late at night, or when I'm in deep contemplation in the afternoon. He's a mean bastard xD
