The League - First Blood (Persistent World Superhero Sci Fi and Fantasy, Always Open)

Having grown frustrated with not being able to cram the Growth's pieces down Sarco and Behemoth's throats, Abaddon intensified the pseudo-telekinetic force around them to burn the slimy things to ash, then used the floating energy to inflict more damage to the two bruisers before Michael and Chrome resumed their attacks. Along with the damage that Abaddon had caused them seconds earlier, the two superheroes very easily could have just ended their pathetic lives right then and there, but they did nothing other than just knock them out and put them in specialized handcuffs. A pity really, Abaddon would have thought that after today's incident his allies would be a little less willing to leave these guys alive, but apparently not. Zenith himself had shown up and actually restrained himself from flying the Growth, simply turning the sand around it into a glass prison.

"You won't even put that thing out of its misery?! It's not even human, Zenith!!!"

Zenith turned to face Abaddon with a stern stare, saying nothing. After some seconds of silence between the two, all Zenith told Abaddon was that he should report back to the hall. Abaddon said nothing either though, but he did let out what seemed to be a displeased growling sound before flying out of the building through one of the many holes throughout its structure. The VTOLs were already flying away; this whole mess was already wrapped up it seemed.

"We've had quite the day here! A demonic cult prowling the city, and one insane, powerful Polaris. Yes... Zenith and I WILL talk later..."

What is it with you and an extremely powerful douchebag villain?

The League - First Blood (Persistent World Superhero Sci Fi and Fantasy, Always Open)

He didn't know how, but Abaddon was caught off guard (probably because he was too busy congratulating himself and laughing at Growth's splattered mass) by Behemoth's simple maneuver of grabbing his leg and smashing him into the ground, creating a body sized crater. Abaddon groaned in pain and attempted to blast back the giant meta with a burst of the Devourer's Wrath, but in his pain disoriented state he couldn't muster up the energy in time and was then picked up and launched at Sarco by Behemoth.

"Fuck..."

Sarco's well placed punch also smashed him into the ground, and Abaddon's body was once again racked with pain. He let out a screech of pain, mixed with anger. These petty attacks shouldn't be hurting this much! He had been able to take worse and more than this before! He should have been smarter about his offensive actions. As much as he hated to acknowledge it, the fight with the Dark Summoner had worn on him. Abaddon may have been able to recover quickly by feeding, but he was still in a "frail" state.

"DO IT FAGGOT!" Abaddon shouted angrily as Sarco prepared to bring his foot down on him. A bad position to be in, but Abaddon saw it as a perfect opportunity to perform a surprise counter attack. As soon as Sarco brought his force down, Abaddon would shift his body into its liquid shadow state, slither up his leg, and reform on top of his massive back. Then it would be a simple matter to dig his sharp claws into Sarco's eyes, and then extending them to pierce the brain behind them...

At least, those would have been Abaddon's actions had the entire area not been affected by the force of a giant explosion. Sarco was knocked away from Abaddon, along with Behemoth. Lying on the ground, Abaddon was also lifted up by the force of the explosion and was tossed through the air, though fortunately for him, he only had to extend tendrils from his body towards the floor to keep himself from landing anywhere near the two bruisers.

Now, what had landed next to him was a large part of The Growth's slimy mass. The thing attacked him and Desert Vampire with extensions, catching Abaddon. The slime began to thicken and tighten around his body in an attempt to begin consuming him, but Abaddon just sneered.

"Really? I just get stuck with you? R.L Stine's bastard child? I still wanted a challenge."

Growth's attempt to consume his body would be fruitless. Being fully enveloped by a supernatural entity, Abaddon's "outer body" wasn't technically organic. Getting constricted wasn't exactly painless though, and Abaddon was pretty sure this thing had more constricting power than the Dark Summoner's two serpents. Abaddon made his body course with the Devourer's Wrath to burn off part of the Growth's body that was squeezing him. Abaddon dropped to the floor, ash falling off his body.

"See that you worthless sewage? That's how easy you are to kill! You're pathetic, I'm surprised you were actually considered a threat by anyone! You bore me!"

Abaddon whipped out his arms and created to small ripples of his destructive energy on both side of the Growth. It was extremely "diluted" though, meaning the slimeball wouldn't be incinerated. The energy tugged at the blob until it managed to rip off two good chunks off its amorphous body as the energy now mainly functioned as painful "telekinetic" force.

"Desert Vamp, keep the blob busy!"

Abaddon turned to where he could hear Chrome, Michael, and the two bruisers engaged in combat. Sarco and Behemoth were being relentlessly attacked, and taking advantage of their preoccupation, Abaddon tried something. He brought the floating pieces of the Growth towards Sarco and Behemoth, right up to their faces, and began trying to shove them into their mouths and down their throats

"SWALLOW IT! SWALLOW IT!!!" He screamed out in some strange, gleeful manner. He wanted to see this work, he wanted to see those two scumbags get eaten alive from the inside. It would be absolutely hilarious too!

Posted, finally.

The League - First Blood (Persistent World Superhero Sci Fi and Fantasy, Always Open)

Abaddon had been busy sinking his teeth into the flesh of some random beastie when one of the League's reinforcement metas called out to him from above. The poor guy was obviously a bit disgusted by the grisly scene below him, but he did his best to deliver his message while Abaddon settled to swallow the dead creature whole without savoring it. Quicker that way and all, though it made the hovering superhero lose his lunch.

"Ugh, now that's just nasty," Abaddon hissed as he rolled his eyes. "Whatever! I got the gist of what you were trying to say anyway!"

the semi-ethereal body Abaddon had shifted as he began to "shed" it, dropping wisps of shadows that evaporated into nothingness when they hit the ground. He wasn't growing though, not even healing. He was simply cleaning himself up.

"Huh... though maybe charging into battle covered in gore would unsettle the four guys beating on our poor friends..."

"#Except perhaps, Sarco," Drevenon said. "I would wager he looked like that everyday before he got imprisoned here."

"Yeah probably."

Abaddon took a bounding start before he jumped into the air, spreading his strange looking wings to catch up with Zenith and company. The famous hero was clearly concerned about the well-being of the other League members, but Abaddon figured they couldn't be in TOO bad of shape. He could be wrong though, so he only sped up his flight to more quickly reach his destination. He had to tear through a few doors and walls, but he made it to the area before the others (and he'd probably hear all about his recklessness when they got back to League Headquarters too!).

"Surprise surpri-! Oh come on really?!"

The scene was pretty much as bad as the sickened messenger had described it. Three of the League's primary heroes were down with Desert Vampire fighting off three of the four villains alone. The only one he wasn't fighting was Polaris.

Polaris. Oh, well shit. Now this was really bad. Abaddon hadn't been around in the League when they had brought him down, but this guy was all over the news regardless. He was insanely powerful with his photokinetic abilities, powerful enough to take down a swath of metahumans before finally being brought down. And right now, poor Flashbolt Acolyte might as well be fighting three villains on his own, because fighting Polaris alone was just as bad... if not worse.

"Meh... too bad..."

Abaddon's confidence was a bit on the low side after he had been matched and nearly bested by the Dark Summoner a while ago... but then he remembered he had been holding back throughout most of the fight. He'd likely have to hold back here too unless he wanted his downed allies to get obliterated, but if he played his cards right he could help his team get the upper hand again.

The first thing to do was help out Desert Vampire. Poor guy was about to get killed in the worst way possible, and he doubted he wanted to be remembered for getting swallowed alive by some reject slime effect from "The Thing". Still being in the air, Abaddon flew over above Desert Vampire to snag him up out of the ground with shadowy extensions from his body.

"I remember reading about this in some Goosebumps book. Nasty way to die, I'll tell ya," Abaddon nonchalantly told Desert Vampire as he tossed a sizeable spiked ball of shadows in the spot the vampire used to be in.

"Hey Blob, that won't go down well!"

Upon being swallowed, the shadowy ball would not only extend its spikes within the Growth but also explode with magic energy. Abaddon dropped Desert Vampire away from his opponents before he dove towards the struggling Sarco. Catching him in the waist, Abaddon used his strength to lift him up into the air before flipping him around and making him crash down head first into the floor below. Too bad this guy wouldn't immediately die like that one mole-ape thing he killed earlier like this, but it hopefully hurt and had enough force to stun him for the time being. Abaddon flew away from him to rejoin Desert Vampire...

Alright, I'll need a list of the four heavy-hitters, their powers, where they're at, and the metas fighting them.

If that's a bit much, then just give me the run down of who's endangering the metas the most.

Still haven't posted yet, mainly 'cause I've been busy with school and such. Considering the lengths of posts and all I probably won't be too keen on reading everything to find a good place to jump in, so if you (Mr.Didact) could do me a favor and message me when there's such a time in the RP so I actually can post, that'd be great.

Is there anywhere at all I could jump in smoothly without making everything seem so abrupt?

The League - First Blood (Persistent World Superhero Sci Fi and Fantasy, Always Open)

Played the Five Nights at Freddy's demo. My laptop screen is probably going to break if I have the same reaction every time one of those animatronic puppets scream in my face...

The League - First Blood (Persistent World Superhero Sci Fi and Fantasy, Always Open)

Isn't there some anti-supernatural repellent thing around the prison though? Wouldn't be of much use there except with physical strengths and stuff, but we have plenty of that.

On that note, I need a recap of recent events, I haven't been following this lately.
