Young Justice: Covert Ops

Amani blinked a few times. She was completely whelmed to have her own costume. It meant she was really going to be part of this team of heroes. This superhero thing was getting more real every moment she spent on Mount Justice. At first she didn't know what to expect but at least she knew one thing for sure. This was going to be awesome! She didn't have much time to gawk at her heroine outfit because one of the boys walked into her room. Without realizing it she let out a soft squeak of surprise when she saw him.

"H-hello, are the rooms assigned?" He asked unsure.
"Ummm...." she started locking a strand of hair behind her ear. "I don't know actually, I found mine by accident but I think you can choose one you like" Then she suddenly thought of something which made her come back on her answer. "I think the boys are on the other end." At least she hoped they were. To be honest she wasn't all too sure. She told her dad they were and she hated lying. Not because she was a bad liar, but her dad always found out.
"I can walk with you, it's not like I'm doing much" She said looking at the half unpacked luggage on the closet floor. Getting to know her team was much more fun than unpacking. She could do that later when she was bored. Amani walked out into the hallway with a smile. "Come on!"

Young Justice: Covert Ops

I will post tonight. Stry was the girl in your post Amani or somone else?

Young Justice: Covert Ops

You guys are awsome thanks a bunch! Trying to find pictures and everything, that was really great I'm inspired now. I'll edit in the costume bit tomorrow, or I might save it for later not sure yet. Don't worry I wasn't going to post a picture, I'm way too picky for that. Describing works much better.

Young Justice: Covert Ops

It was her reflection in the mirror which caught her eye when she passed one of the last rooms on the first floor. She simply couldn't resist the idea of a room with a full body mirror. I'm betting even the closet is bigger than the room I had back home. Amani walked back and forth a few times to make sure the room was empty, which looked quite stupid. But it would be really embarrassing to enter someone else's room thinking you had it in the bag. Lucky for her the coast was clear so she entered. The door closed on its own, probably controlled by some sort of supercomputer. When she got a good look at her room she squealed, jumping up and down like a crazy person. It was huge just HUGE! There was so much room for.......well she didn't even know for what. She loved to hoard all kinds of things but she never had any room to keep all of it. No problems here though. She danced through the room giggling, already fantasizing about the way she was going to decorate her place.

A computer simulated holograph of a phone appeared on her desk. "Number 089-4568774 is attempting to reach you, location the United Arab Emirates" Amani's eyes widened and she panicked slightly for two main reasons. She had no clue how this holograph thingy worked and she recognized the number. It was her dad....... Great. She groaned, letting herself fall face down on the bed. But the phone kept repeating the annoying message and she knew her dad hated waiting. "Computer put through" She held in her breath.

"Amani, Aina hal anta?"(Amani, where are you?) It worked, her dad's deep voice sounded through the room in her native tongue. As much as he annoyed her she still liked the way he watched out for her. It was a very familial feeling even though it was getting increasingly more annoying as she grew older. Sometimes he still treated her like a little girl. She was sixteen but she was sure her dad still saw her in pigtails.
"I'm in my room on Mount Justice, and yes we have separate rooms. I have no roommate and the boys are down in the other hallway."
"Hasan (Good), and be on your best behavior"
"Yes dad" She sighed.
"Uhibuk Amani" (I love you Amani)
"Bye dad" The holograph disappeared after the call ended. The phone call was just his way to make sure she was okey, he wasn't really checking in on her. After all these years she had build up at least some credit, they trusted each other.

Amani cupped her chin in her hands laying on the bed with her feet propped up in the air. She was facing the walk in closet doors. It was the only area of which the doors were closed. It was pretty odd. Then she heard a loud thump inside the closet. She let out a quiet squeal and jumped off the bed looking around for something to defend herself with. She facepalmed herself. Epic fail, she knew some kickass self defense moves. Careful not to make any sound she sneaked her way to the closet. 1....2.......3! She kicked the doors open, almost falling into.........her luggage! The unmistakable flower patterned set of suitcases were neatly placed on the floor of the closet.

"Wow....." Was all she could say.They must have teleported her things here once they knew which room she picked. Once she had unpacked everything the room would feel more like home, though twice the size. She moved one of the suitcases out of the way and the handle bumped into one of the closet doors. Any normal door would stay closed, only nearly everything in the HQ was controlled by a super computer. The door opened up to reveal a glass case with a mannequin wearing........her costume?

Young Justice: Covert Ops

Great :)
Now do you have any idea what kind of costume Djinn would wear? I'm failing horribly trying to think of something other than a skimpy genie outfit. I wrote in her character sheet she wouldn't wear that

Young Justice: Covert Ops

Hey Demon ^.^
Do the rooms go with a costume? I had this cool idea for a post. (or at least I think it's cool)

The Insidious Night

Celine awoke early. The stars were still shining while she got herself ready for the journey ahead. She worked quickly, which seemed strange since there was no apparent reason for her to hurry. Dawn was still a good hour away. She put on an unremarkable earth colored skirt and a white blouse with a square neckline. The sleeves reached halfway down her arms stopping at the elbows. A tan leather bodice was worn over the blouse and she laced it with practiced skill. After she finished putting on her clothes she gathered all of her belongings into her traveling bag. Overnight some of the others had found their way to Wolmak's room, several of the beds she'd seen empty were now occupied. They were all still sleeping when she left to catch the last rays of starlight. The peaceful silence of the slumbering town managed to settle her dark thoughts if only for a little while.

There was a stream nearby of which the water was pure enough to drink. She'd seen it when she entered town the day before and it was close by the entrance where Thaddeus had asked them to meet. The stream rippled calmly and she could see the rocks underneath the water, it swirled past these stone obstacles. Such was the way of water, always around and over never straight through. Patience was its power as was proven by the smooth pebbles that made up the bottom of the stream.

The stars were watching her from above as she dipped in her feet, letting the stream caress them. The feet were the most impure part of one's body and should always be washed first. She splashed her face several times, gasping as the icy water touched her skin. The water ran down her neck but she let it, staring at her distorted reflection in the rippling water. After a while the image started to become cloudy and her eyes glazed over, she wasn't sure what she was seeing. There was someone else beside her, another quivering reflection in the stream. At first she couldn't tell who it was, the features were hazy and unclear. Until she saw a pair of piercing deep set eyes which made her heart leap with recognition and she whipped her head around furiously. Her raven locks obscured her view. She brushed them away impatiently seeking the owner of that familial gaze but all that lay before her was an empty road, the claws of grief around her heart tightening once more. The grief held little influence anymore as with most other feelings, she was numb to the core. Only he could stir up these buried emotions. Even a moonlit illusion was enough to make her heart leap and her stomach flutter. She was going on this journey for him so she could get her life back. Their life together.

The night had made way for dawn, the mysterious few hours of twilight where neither the moon or sun ruled the sky. A place in between where their journey began. The visage in the moonlit stream excited but also troubled her. What does it mean? Was it the sign I asked for?

She spotted Thaddeus walking to the gates, even from this short distance she could tell it was him. When she arrived, the other soon joined in. They would not be needing their horses. Celine was used to traveling with a horse since she carried multiple traveling bags with her. Thaddeus had warned her to travel light so she had. The only drawback was the limited amount of ointments and herbs she could bring. Some of them were easily broken while others had to be packed separate from one another. As they walked she found her thoughts going back to the visage in the stream. It might not be real but it was still the first time she'd seen him since he went..............away.

Along The Darkest Road

I'm so proud of us that we made it to the end. and what an ending! I loved it Lillian, it was beautifully written and you managed to work in each and every one of us. I've said it many times before but this roleplay holds a special place in my heart as do all of you guys *hugs*. There have been so many milestones for me writing this story and playing this character that I've grown to love. We really brought up the best in each other and this has been the best writing experience I've had since joining the guild several years ago. It proves that even though we've had many setbacks it is worth it to keep going strong. So a huge thank you to all of you Lillian. Igraine, Tirg, Ani, Heroes and everyone else who have joined the Travelers on this journey. It was unforgettable. ^.^ No doubt I'll be seeing all of you again, I can't wait to join in on the next adventure with you guys!

The Insidious Night

I'll be posting tomorrow ^.^ How terrible we need to travel on foot

Young Justice: Covert Ops

Sorry my post took ages, anyways I'll add some more tomorrow. I just wanted to get out of the kitchen for now. Stry, you could try interacting with characters you haven't interacted with. I mean only if you feel like interacting and it would make sense for your character. I try to keep track of who I interact with and avoid the characters I see too often so it's balanced out.
