Well he is, just not everyday.

The Gifted: A Fast Paced Superpower RP (Relaunch)

That works fine!

Unfortunately, Bee is right guys, we need to move on! I love the character interactions and all but could we speed it up a little so we can move on in the plot? I promise you won't regret it!

@NarcissisticPotato

I have no issue with moving on but what will I do with Patriarch?@NarcissisticPotato

Adam was glad that his negotiation had made the man believe them to be allies and not foes. The commander led them into the village and once in Warpath noticed that there were foreign soldiers gathered around. They were Russians, it looked like Russia really was an enemy of America and supported terrorism. As they went deeper into the village they noticed more Russian soldiers and this made Adam suspicious, they had to be hiding something if there were this many soldiers being used to guard one village. Unfortunately they weren't allowed to go near that part of the village and the commander informed them that they would be shot dead if they went near the area without authorization.

"Can you tell us what exactly is over there? It seems strange to have so many guards for one small village and I've been in enough battles to know that it's important to know you're environment and every detail" he said to the commander. Mountain Lion remained silent and let his eyes wander around to get some idea of how many soldiers there were and what kinds of weapons they had. Being surrounded by so many hostile forces made him on edge and his fur bristle up a bit.

He didn't like being around his enemies and decided that it was best to remain silent, which would help keep his nerves under control.

The commander shrugged. "Something of great power all i know is when the big man himself comes here you know it is interesting. The Russians really don't like us, they are here because they want whatever we got. The big guy is using it as a measure to get us some new toys."

The men were carrying the newest Russian rifles, AK-12's and AK-107's. Some Russians had RPK-74's and PK machine guns the Russian Zone as it seemed had the massive KPV machine guns, and Kord machine guns. Many kinds of RPG weapons. There were Kornet anti-tank missiles, and other atgms.

There were no tanks but motars in embankments and BTRs. The majority of the vehicles were heavy lift vehicles, Mountain Lion heard the sound of a jet engine nearby.

The commander looked at Adam, "Whatever it is the Russians are willing to pay 20 billion for it."

Hugh Reese for President Campaign Commercial

In a well lit study sitting on a nice chair in front of a fireplace with a happy dog in front of a man. The man was dressed in tan slacks a cardigan, and loafers.

"Hello my fellow Americans, I am Texas Governor Hugh Reese. We live in a terrifying and scary world. People with powers, nations that do not follow laws, and a government that is inept. The current administration has failed America too many times. From the President's failure to ensure our safety from ISIS, the President's failure in stopping Yemen from falling into disrepair. This administration is nothing but one massive failure." Reese drinks from a glass of water.
"Weak responses by this woman in the Oval Office has only ensured a more dangerous world for Americans at home and abroad. A Stronger Russia, a stronger ISIS, a strong China. All of those are bad for us. She has not round up any meta with sympathies to ISIS or Russia, she refuses to prosecute any terrorists and she lets the heroes punish them when the people whom suffer are us." The Governor points.
"When I am elected President I promise to stand up against Russia! I will stand against ISIS! I will say to Wall Street that morality comes before money! I will offer aide to nations that wish to stand up against any form of aggression be it state, meta, or terrorist.

"America will not start a fight but we will damned well end it." Governor Reese smiled. "Remember I will put honor, strength, and dignity back into the White House." The message faded to black right before it transisitoned to the slogan. Reese 2020. Honor, Strength, Dignity.

-------------------------

The President was taken aback by the ad. She was so mad at the fact the ad now put her and Reese withing ten points of each other. She still had ten points but Reese she feared could do more harm to her in the next month when his party had it's convention.

She did not even read the report she was so busy with all the problems of her office she gave it to her chief of staff, Ryan Moon. fter Ryan read the report he suggested to Vice President Davis to convene a special meeting of the President's metahman council. The Metahuman council was a special council that was under the National security council and dealt with the metahuman issue. It would be chaired by Vice President Davis, Mister Moon would act as the President's representative at the meeting, also attending would be the Secretary of State, Secretary of Defense, intelligence representatives, and a representative of the budget office. In

Mister Moon had asked for Wessex to find an appropriate date to appear before the special committee within a week or so to explain this further.

Adam watched as they were stopped by a road block with a bunch of guards and saw that they had heavy weapons aimed at their vehicle. It would be unwise to to go out guns blazing and possibly get them killed.

"What do we do now?" Mountain Lion asked him as he cracked his knuckles.

"We try the diplomatic approach, I'll talk to them and see if I can them believe that we are metahumans working for the Islamic State. if things go sour then I want you to attack them as quick as possible" Adam instructed and John nodded. Adam stepped out of the vehicle and spoke them in Syrian. Mountain Lion followed not too far behind. He heard some of the men give whisper of nervousness.

"We are new recruits for the Islamic State's metahuman soldiers, we were hoping to find a place of recruitment. As you can see we are very skilled in the arts of combat and killing, we will gladly take the chance to take up arms against the west" he said to them, hoping that it was convincing enough to get them past the roadblock.

@The Patriarch

The commander looked at them.
"Good we need some metas for a job in the nearby village." After a brief discussion the commander seemed to have no issue with them.

The commander takes them to the nearby village. In the nearby village there was something odd. There were foreign soldiers, they were wearing green shaded camouflage. But noticeably they had current weapons of the Russian Federation. As they drove deeper into this village they saw more and more Russians. These men were carrying themselves like they were Spestnaz.

There seemed to be an operation of sorts in the ruins at the edge of town. There were light towers, tractors, and digging equipment. IT was odd ISIS was taking care of this site as they had ruined ancient monuments before then why was this location spared and why were the Russians so invested in it.Something was up but Adam and Mountain Lion were not let closer to that site.

The command pointed at the site. "Do not go there unless you have permission. The Russians will shoot you dead."
