Young Justice Renegades: A Team Worth Dying For

Hoping to get another post up either tomorrow or friday! :)

Young Justice Renegades: A Team Worth Dying For

Had a busy week. Got a new kitten and just today a large, fresh tattoo. Will try and get a post up tomorrow most likely.

Are we allowed to exert minor control over the goons? I kind of want to throw Dandelion into the fray, just to be swatted casually aside.

@Dead Cruiser

I assume so! I took full control of one of the brutes in my post! I guess just try and keep them in character

Have left a nice little opening for someone at the Precinct to save Gabi from getting the Omni Man treatment

Young Justice Renegades: A Team Worth Dying For

All the brute could do was throw his arms over his face as the teenage girl fell upon him, the sharp blade of Wonder Girl’s axe plunging into the invigorated muscle of his arm. It tore through the man’s flesh, before becoming wedged in place. Gabi found herself dangling a few feet off the air, her hands still gripped on the handle above her.

The scream the brute let out in retaliation was a combination of pain and pure rage. He swung his arm out wildly, sending Gabi flying as her hands slipped from the handle of her trusty weapon. She tore along the street, tearing up pieces of concrete as she tumbled into the side of a parked policed cruiser. She groaned in pain as she fell forwards onto her hands and knees. Seconds into the fight and she was already battered and bruised.

She was grateful at the very least that she had the wearing on her side today. She lifted her arm, catching a drop of rain on one of the newly made cuts on near her elbow. She immediately found herself feeling better as the cuts began to close up. It would still take some time for her to fully heal, but it was a start. She was definitely in need of all the help she could get at this point.

She glanced back towards the center of the street, where she watched the hulk of a man clutching his wounds. Wincing in pain, the behemoth pulled her blade from his wound, as if simply removing a thorn, before tossing it carelessly onto the ground.

The brute stepped towards her, flexing his biceps as he moved to crack his knuckles together. Gabi gritted her teeth. This was going to be tougher than she expected.

Wonder Girl lunged forwards once more, seconds before the brute did himself, narrowly avoiding the swing of his fist as she darted around him. She punched outwards at his side as she did so; short quick jabs just like Kevin had taught her back in the team’s gym. It was effective, with the attack causing him to lose his balance slightly. He swung again, with Gabi simply repeating the same maneuver. A quick dodge with a couple more jabs, the last of which colliding with the man’s jaw.

She was simply making him angrier though, with whatever power that was giving him strength also amplifying his rage. Gabi hoped that the anger would make him slopy, however as she tried to duck and weave for the third time in a row, she realized that she should not have been so foolish.

This time he was waiting for her. As she ducked under one of his arms, the brute made a grab with the other, firmly grasping her arm. Yanking her towards him, he swung one more, his fist hitting Gabi like a ton of bricks as she shot down into the concrete below his feet.

Letting out a short chuckle, he flexed his muscles once more as he moved to finish the job.

Gabi felt her innards twist and turn as the magical energies of Julian and Conor’s machine sucked her down through the ground. She stumbled forward once she finally found herself on solid ground again, steadying herself against a wall as she took in the new materialised world around her. They certainly were not in Conor’s lab anymore.

The group found themselves in the centre of what appeared to be the precinct’s bull pen. What would normally be a hub of activity for Seattle’s police force, was now a derelict ruin, with desks and chairs tossed asunder, and paperwork scattered everywhere. The room was surprisingly barren of life, save for themselves, with the officers and any other personnel having begun to barricade themselves into side offices. It certainly wasn’t quiet though, with a mixture of sirens and gun fire raining down around them all.

The most surprising feature of the room was the overturned police car that currently lay as its centrepiece. Thankfully, it seemed that no one had been inside it during its flight here, as Gabi discovered with a quick glance inside.

Ignoring the confused shouts of the officers that sat hidden behind the room’s various doorways, Gabi stepped cautiously towards the far wall, which was now mostly a pile of rubble and broken shards of glass. Clearly this was where the car had come from. She moved slowly, keeping low as she tried to peak down onto the street below. She only caught a glance before the gunfire rang in her direction, causing her to dart backwards into safety. It was enough though, as she had easily spotted her target. Truth be told it wasn’t tough to miss the muscular behemoth.

A plan in mind, she turned back towards the group of fellow heroes behind her.

“Someone take out the gunmen” She instructed, taking charge as she readied her grip on her axe. “I’ve got the big guy.”

Turning back towards the hole, she took a deep breath as she focussed on the droplets of rain falling from the sky above. Pushing herself upwards, Wonder Girl charged forwards. She sprung up from the floor and out into the Seattle air, axe raised above her head as she soured down towards to the drugged-up madman.

I imagined we teleported into the lobby, there's a staircase leading down to the vault area to our side. There will be small emergency lights on, but nothing more. The vault has a set of gates, another set of gates, security boxes in one vault and then two vaults for money (And secrit STAR tech.)

@Hillan

What about the police precinct?

I'm worried i'm reading Sep's description incorrectly! So the muscley-boy is outside the rear of the precinct? Or is there one at the front too?

And gunmen are in the building looking out the front, and also out back with the rear guy?

Gabi starred around in awe around the workshop, as Conor directed her towards her spot on the floor, eagerly taking the inscribed stone he handed her. She knew about Conor’s thirst for knowledge regarding all things magical – he had even promised to investigate some Mayan mythology for her -, but she had no idea this thirst had extended this much. He really knew his stuff, compared to her, whose own magical knowledge merely consisted of making it rain and swinging around an axe.

It was just so wonderful to behold. Nothing like she had seen before.

Yet her amazement was temporarily put on hold as their elegant leader made an appearance, with the super genius beginning his role-call.

Varo, Kevin, Jonathan, and Roy were all good choices. Each one someone she would gladly fight alongside. Varo with his knowledge from beyond the starts. Kevin with the fighting fire he often displayed down in the gym. Jonathan dashing about with that sapphire armour. And Roy, with that fantastical rainbow-coloured suit, and the passion and power to match.

Yet as she heard their names called out, and their mission statement detailed, all she could do was angrily hold her tongue. Hayden was being sent in. Little thirteen-year-old Hayden was being sent to fight some guys that just took down a member of the Justice League. Gabi couldn’t believe what Julian was doing. She had spoken to him about this before, but it would seem that her protests had fallen on deaf ears.

She brought the inscribed stone up against her chest tightly. Looks like she would have to protect them herself.

“Send us in.” She said boldly. “I’m ready.”

She isn't trapped, she's stuck.

She clearly slept on a pile of glue.

@Sep

Happens to the best of us

I'd like to apologise to all those that choose to help the police outside the bank because now you're all just going to be stood out in the rain
