Growing up his father favored his brother, and as such he's a very jealous and possessive individual when it comes to his things. He's very selfish, and always wants what other people have. Being from wealth he's very entitled and believes he deserves things whether it's opportunities or sexual favors. He's a textbook narcissist and considers himself better then others often belittling those around him.

History: Lex Vamason comes from wealth raised by his father Chester, his mother Alexis, and his older brother Thomas. Lex's family was very successful his father was a famous businessman involved in many ventures, and his mother was a famous actress. She died in a car accident when Lex was only five years old and was Alexis's favorite child. As a result he was shown little love as Chester liked Thomas more, and he suffered the short end of the stick growing up always striving to prove himself. He took after his mother being idealistic, imaginative and artistic wanting to be the President one day. He was a classical pianist, and played in the orchestra in middle school and high school. He was bullied when younger but learned to flaunt his wealth to make superficial friends and create opportunities with women. He left orchestra, and managed to get an academic scholarship.

He attended classes at New York University, and majored in political science. During college he had a fallout with his father and was cut off. He was heavily involved in campus, and got a fast food job but quickly quit. He ended up getting a job as a cars salesman and made good money until he had a fallout for his boss when another employee was promoted to assistant manager. He met and dated a woman of a prominent actor named Emily, and they had a good relationship as he used her for money. He ended up using his musical abilities to make money doing gigs, and eventually his father noted his resourcefulness and supported him again. Upon graduation he got a job working for his father's technology and entertainment firm rising up in the ranks but his brother Thomas was head in command with promises to take over after his retirement. Lex has been saving money for his own projects, and using Emily's connections made lots of money doing compositions for major movies to get his own money away from his family. Still he longs for more then just music money or even his father's firm, being a multi millionaire at the age of 28 isn't enough even if half of his money is own he still has his sites set on politics to be a ruler.

He is dedicated to his work, and considers himself a workaholic or at least everyone around him does. He believes dangerous vile people should be tortured and killed, and dangers to society should be eliminated.

History: Donny Mastoff was raised in a fairly average family. He enjoyed his child-hood, and always enjoyed life growing up. He had two loving parents, and two brothers and one sister. When he was in high school his sister was gang raped by two individuals, and he ended up being in probation because he tracked them down hit one with car and beat the other one savagely with a bat. Luckily he was a juvenile and his father was a lawyer so he got him the best legal counsel possible. After that he was very protective of not just his sister but his family, and friends. His family was quite religious but after that experience he found his faith dwindling and dwindling until he was an atheist, and he became obsessed with fixing society. He ended up graduating and went to New York University intending to major in political science with the long term goal of going into law like his father. His father ended up filing for bankrupty and couldn't afford to support him financially anymore as well as all his siblings. He wanted his brother and sister to go to school, so he went to the military to fund his education.

He enjoyed the military, and the fact that he was making a difference in the world. He ended up dishonorably discharged for violence, and upon coming home to Vegas he got a job with his friend who ran a prominent club. Two years later his friend was killed during a club shooting, and the shooter was a powerful connected criminal who got off with three years of probation. He tracked down the man and killed him as well as several of his subordinates effectively wiping out his organization. This same year his father died, and he was left 40,000 dollars. He decided to move to Europe to catch up with a girl he met in college named Sophia, and they traveled Europe together before settling down in London. It was shortly after they were married, they were hit by a drunk driver. His wife died, and he was injured. He was put on pain killers, and awarded a hefty lawsuit from the rich drunk as well as seeing him put behind bars. Still that wasn't enough he ended up seeking work for a security company, but he developed an addiction to pain killers. He ended up doing heroin, and as a result got involved in the illegal business via old military contacts to support his habit. He was disgusted with himself making money of supplying horrible men, and ended up using his regular job to go to rehab.

After getting out of rehab, he had a change of heart, and began killing various people he sold guns too, getting the money, killing buyers, and using it to support those in need. Eventually he was caught and arrested, and sent back to the states. He was facing life in prison, but he was visited by someone that offered him a job. He managed to serve two years and after that he took up the man's offer joining the CIA. He was recruited into a black ops program they had to eliminate the most dangerous individuals but not let it be known the CIA was connected. He enjoyed the work thoroughly and found it therapeutic. When the Empowered situation began a few weeks ago, and the CIA put together his program he was assigned to lead the task force and report directly to Cori and Director Verdock.

Jace Williams – How did this happen

"NO NO!!!!" Jace was screaming, his whole life was collapsing in front of his eyes. Everything he'd worked for revenge, and redemption alike were both coming to an end. Tears streamed down the super powered killer's eyes and blue lights were flashing all around him. He was laying in the ground blood rushing from him, and rain coming down all- around him. Several police cars were present, sirens, police officers, even some heavilly armored vehicles, and some media personell. In the distance was a damaged ginormous home in the back-ground, and Jace looked in the sky having several images pass through his mind before he lost conscious.

"I gotta go, fuck this town, if she wanna be dumb she gotta be dumb." Jace was driving on the highway ready to start his new life in Florida. His apartment had been raided, he had everything he needed, and it was simply time to move on. He didn't want his sister to get hurt, but if anything happened it would be fine. He'd killed Luke after all, she'd find out eventually, and if she never spoke to him again that was fine with him.

His life was simple, he'd made it to Florida, he opened the keys to his new place, and stepped in and settled down on the couch. He decided to bring his stuff in, and get ready to play some Scotty Cain, and relax. At least that's how it should have went, but no karma had a sneaky way of creeping back up on you when it least expected and it definently did for him, in ways he hadn't ever imagined.

He was three hours on his way when he'd received a call from Tamara asking him to come back, claiming that not only was she wrong about Luke but that he was still alive. He was sure this was some ploy, no way but he heard Luke's voice on the phone.

"You think you was gonna get the last strike huh motherfucker! I played yo ass with my shit, I put my shit to a whole nother level, illusions and shit bruh, you ain't kill me and ole girl!!! Bitch it was a play, and yo stupid ass sister, I'm finnaf uck her up, I'mma ruin her life, in more ways then you can iamgine, bitch if you gotta problem push up on me mothetrfucker, or Tamra's done!!!!!" Luke barked on the phone before hte line went dead, JAce was in shock nearly veering off the highway. He pulled into a gas station and banged his hands on the dash board with anger denting them. "Damn it DAmn it! LUKE!"

His rage was at a whole nother level, not only had he failed to get rid of Luke, he'd let his sister go and now the Black Professor X had her. He knew he was right about his assumptions, Luke was the only person with mental powers so of course it was him that ruined his sister's life. He was determined to stop Luke, and make sure to kill him, he'd bring the entire house down, he'd wipe out Luke's entire family, he'd made sure the Braxtons were wiped off the face of the earth regardless of the past, right now he didn't care about the law, Luke Braxton was the biggest threat to his family specifically his sister and he wouldn't let him live.

That's how it all started, and it culiminated hours later. When Jace had pulled up to the parking lot of the Judge Walton's massive home to confornt Tamara. It was ironic he knew why Luke was drawing him here, if he could get into people's heads he knew this was the last person he intended to kil before he abandoned his bloody rampage of vengeance. He had came to save Tamara, to kill Luke, at this point kill the judge too, clearly leaving business undone wasn't the wisest thing. He'd marched in ripping the front door of it's hinges intending to kill Luke and it had all went down.

" But I failed bro, I failed, she played me." Fast forward a week later Jace was sitting down at a table looking none other then his incarcerated brother in the eyes. Devon Williams looked at his brother with concern, his tale was quite the tale, but there had been two prisoners who'd been murdered by the guards since the storm both had superhuman abilities, and intended to incite a prison break, and were stopped with aid from outside authorities who put them down.

"So you had powers man, and there just gone zapped away? You sure it's got nothing to do with Braxton's mind mojo I mean you had them up until that point bro."

"It don't make sense but there gone. Like I told you I burst in there, the Judge's family was gone, Tamara was there she tried to calm me down, told me Luke wanted to help me, told my powers were fucking with my head, making me a monster, I was pissed she set me up, Luke came in he had some help, they all went at me, I Was damn enar finna beat his ass, Tamra got in the way, then Luke got in my head told me I ain't shit, then the cops came, shit got bad, Tamaara got shit, Luke told me I wasn't shit, I just wanted to save Tamra, I Tried to stop the cops, next thing I knew they tasered me, I Was down, my powers were gone. Even Luke didn't know what the gfuck was happening bruh, these powers just left me as quick as I came. Luke did his jedi mind tricks and dipped out with sis, I ain't seen them since, but she's dead tyo me. SHe ain'tt ook my powers, but she damn sure worked with Luke, and I've been normal. That's how I got locked up, booked, processed, I got sent to prisont his fast, I know Luke was involved, but my powers he can't touch him."

"Damn bruh..like damn..!!! You coulda gotten us outta here, we coulda been free man it's." Devon was saddened but more so that his sister apparently turned on them, and now Jace was in prison with them. She was out there with Luke, and they were in jail.

"I just don't know mayne, I was stronger then him, It wasn't Luke he was damn near unconscious, his folks couldn't do shit to me, it wasn't even his mind command, it was after Tam was shot, it just went like a big zip, I felt all this force rushing outta me, I really thoguht about what Luke said man, I believed it, I got her shot I wasn't shot, but what's she to get me in here what's she.."

"Bruh...man I dunno maybe they'll come back, bruh you gotta believe, you gots to mayne. Maybe Luke was messing with Tamara's head you gotta think that bruh who knows what happened in the end."

"Who knows but we stay talking L's,t hat's what our family does I'm finna go workout man, It's just hell, we're in here it's hell." Jace stepped from the lunch table, having already gobbled down his "Food" and left. He made his way over to work out, he had everything, he was invincible, he nearly exacted revenge on everyone who ruined their lives, and now he was stuck in prison probably for the rest of his life powerless, set to watch him and his brother grow old together.

Everything that happened over the past month he'd gone from something to nothing. He saw Devon's dissapointment, he knew his brother really believed in him, maybe he should have just burst into prison and broke him out and took him with him to Florida. But now that was nothing more then a pipe dream, he was a regular mortal, set to suffer the regular fate of a non powered mortal for the super powered crimes he did. The court didn';t even believe in his superhuman abilities, they just linked him to the crimes, and that was that powers or not. He sighed as he made his way over to the weights and punched a wall then shook his head. He didn't know what to do, there was no way out, and that girl had the nerve to bother him. He told her if she really cared get him and her brother out, with what she could do they could get out it would be risky but they could but she filled his head with nonsense that wasn't helping and right now he didn't need imagination he needed help. He sat down and under weight ready to get to work, this was the only thing that kept his mind off his circumstances.

Luke Braxton – Rise of the Empowered

Innocent U.S Civlians being taken away, or threats to society being removed? He didn't know if the Govenrments intention was to keep this on the hush hush, mainly it was just rumors, but many people had taken the story and ran with it. Apparently the U.S Government was sweeping through the nation picking up people with powers, and doing God knows what to them. Arianna was furious, and Luke being the paranoid person he was believed it.

He'd made sure not to use his powers in public, hell just going to the police station and getting into it with Jace had been enough. He had two agents come to question him, CIA, he'd read their minds, and filled up their heads to the point they'd reported there was nothing strange going on with him, and the incident with the apartment was entirely related to the now depowered Jace Williams.

It was all going down the drain, the whole conforntation with Jace was a mess. Tamara'd gotten shot, her car was wrecked, everything she still didn't want to talk to him. Her court date was in a few months, and he'd use his powers to free her. The same way he'd used his powers to get the court system to sentence Jace to 10 years in prison, it was a break honestly he should be facing triple life.

His ability to influence the court system was great, and his own brother's court date was soon. He wanted to use his powers to get the Judge to release him in a few days when the date came up. If only Jace had listened, he planned to get Craig out of prison. Initially he set out to get Devon too, but there was no telling what Jace said to him. Regardless after Tamara got out the hospital she wanted nothing to do with him, still he'd used his powers to help her get a job working online.

She blamed him for lying, he wasn't lying. He had no idea what happened to Jace's powers in the fight, but the police barged in, he got Tamara out of there and to the hospital. He was sure in the eyes of the Government Tamara was still being watched, and even if she didn't like him that was fine. He was heavilly tempted to use his powers to persuade her to see eye to eye with him but still family was over everything. In her eyes he'd manipulated both her and her brother and put her brother int hat position.

"Damn it." Luke sighed as he rolled another blunt, and sparked it. He'd been smoking more marijuana then ever, he'd been smoking and smoking. He had to stay high at this point, and he was worried. Sure he'd sent those agents packing, but what if they came at him full force, and put him down. There was s many ways to stop him.

He'd fully moved into Amber's place, and was glad for it. He wanted to buy his own place, but for once he didn't want his image to work against him. Sure he made a decent income at Uber, and Lyft but legally he didn't want to be on paper buyinga house. His apartment was ruined, luckily he didn't have to deal with them anymore. A lease wasn't a problem, after all a superhuman attack wasn't thought of when it was drafted, and thanks to his renters insurance he was being refunded.

Jace was a problem, or at least he was. His powers were gone, he didn't know how. But what if one day his powers suddenly vanished, what he was doing well he was in over his head. He wasn't telling anyone about his actions, he didn't want Arianna to know, or even Lucy and the rest of the Empowered he met. He was doing this he said for everyone, but really it for himself.

He was definently done moving drugs himself, he was a trafficker full and full. He'd used his brothers connections to import large quantities of marijuana, cocaine, heroin, and MDMA into Atlanta. He'd used his powers on law enforcement to get several dealers, distributors, and traffickers arrested over the past week. The APD was being praised for their historic number of drug busts over the past week.

He did this for many reasons, some of the people he disliked, others were simply too violent, but mainly to create a scarcity of drugs, and inspire a fear in other involved in the Atlanta Drug Trade. While he put so many others behind bars, he'd moved up the ladder. He'd raised the price of the drugs and he'd gotten other dealers to work for him. He hadn't gone after the entire Atlanta Drug trade, that would be too much.

But he'd diminshed his opposition siginfingaly, was getting high quality drugs, and making sure his people weren't touched, and he was making more drug money then he'd ever make selling grams on his campus. Thanks to his power, ingenuity, and using the law to his advantage he was rising to be one of the most powerful and connected people in the Atlanta Drug Trade. Hell he had people moving drugs to other parts of Georgia, money was rolling in, he was living out the Scarface fantasy without risk of being arrested thanks to his powers.

So the past week hadn't been all paranoia about being captured by the Government, and regret over what happened with Jace. He'd been doing more drugs then he'd ever been doing before, had more money, even attended a couple lavish parties with the upper echeleon of Atlanta, and shown what it really meant to get drunk and high on a whole other scale. He'd met with his mohter a few times that week too, and got her to give him ownership over Braxton's wings the family's business.

Using his powers he'd influenced many people to come there, but after they had some of his famous southern cooking they were coming back on his own. Braxton's wings popularity had exploded, and he had taken a hefty business loan. He was in the plans of opening up two more Braxton's wings another in Atlanta, and another in the suburbs of Atlanta. He'd make his family's business succesful, he wanted to rival some of America's best food chains, and his powers were going to make it possible. IN short he was having a wonderful time, Jace, Tamara, the Government, all those things where in his mind but in-between all the money he was counting, all the drugs he was doing, all the blunts he was smoking, and all the women he'd fucked he was able to keep his mind at bay.

He was putting some money in his money machine at Amber's house when he got a text from Arianna that caught his eyes. "Elliot Burrows hmm." He hadn't heard that name before, but he thought Tamara had mentioned him once or twice in passing, some comments about being an annoying neighor. That was a start, he didn't know if Arianna's information would fully help or how she got it but it was good. Still if she was messing around with information the Government might find interesting about people with powers, he wanted her to be careful. Sure he could control people, but he couldn't control machines, and he wasn't Jace so if she could got captured he couldn't burst in and get her. He could get the courts to let her go, but if the real Govenrment got theirh ands on her he couldn't find her not to mention rescue her. He shot her a text saying he'd be on his way, he slipped into some cargo pants, and a 1017 T shirt, and went out to his car. "Hopefully I can find out who did this to you Tamara." He took a few more hits of the marijuana blunt now a roach and tossed it out the windows. He turned on some YFN Lucci, and pulled out the driveway to make his way to Arianna.

Hector Ramirez – Atlanta, Georgia – Visions of Death

"Aaah no!!!! PLease please" A woman was screaming in pain she'd already been stabbed and was backing up from her attacker. Her attacker was a vague female figure with shades on, a blade in hand, and a grin on her face. "You think I wanted this, now I wanted you to suffer but you went ahead and made this happen, you sped up the process you dumb bitch, and now I've got it. At first I just wanted to have fun, but there's bigger things going on here, bigger fish to fry, and way more fun for me to have. You and the other bitch where just the beginning, I've got other targets, but I'm going to have to be different with how I go about them what happened at the hospital, what that maniac is doing to the cops although I can't say I don't enjoy it, and who else knows what else, The Feds are gonna step in, there gonna round us up, and then I just have to be in the right position to have fun."

The bleeding woman looked up at her attacker and groaned." You’re a fucking sociopath, you think your entitled to what you wanted, there's a reason you didn't get it you fucking crazy fucker, because they could sense what you really were, I thought you were just weird bur your worst. You’re the reason I wanted to be what I wanted to be to stop people like you, fuck you, you evil fucking bastard."

The man moved forward the girl was screaming the scenery changed to none other then Jace with his hands full of blood, bullet holes on his clothes, and laughing around several dead police officers, then finally an entire police station was seen destroyed, and suddenly the vision ended.

"FUCK!!!!" Hector jumped out of bed in a cold sweat, reaching for a beer bottle of rolling rock he had on his night stand and popped it open starting to chug some to calm himself down. He'd been plagued by bits and pieces of this vision for the past hour, and it seemed the probation officer he'd saved was now coming to his rescue trying to counsel him from his nightmarish visions.

"Hector Hector!" Andrea was also laying in bed, but it seemed they hadn't been engaged in a tryst of sorts as she still had on her pajama's and reached for Hector wiping sweat off his brow." Fuck you scared me, you need to sleep, you need to."

"No I can't not today, I told you what happened, you know what happened to my daughters, this is fucking a punishment, if I ignore this what else could happen? I almost ignored what I saw of you and imagine where you'd be dead, in a fucking coffin, this happened for a reason you don't have to come, but I have to expose this Jace guy, today is gonna be the worst so many people are going to die, I have to stop him with or without you, everything I see I can affect, I can change, even this bastard." Hector downed the rest of his beer and tossed it into the trash can.

Andrea seemed conflicted she really wanted to help Hector, she owed him everything her life. Hell because of him she was still out of the public way, while some people saw a worthless alcoholic former cop and war veteran with a record ruined by multiple DUI's she had seen that there was someone behind that. She had to admit it was an eye opener as a probation officer she'd been pretty cruel, taking out her frustrations from her marriage on her probationee's and feeling like they were all criminals having never been on the wrong side of the law herself. But now she could see how she was wrong to pre-emptively judge everyone who came in-front of the judge, some of them had stories, reasoning's behind their tragedy, a reason for their pain, and a hope to change. Deep down she felt partially responsible for at least some of Jace's behavior, although he was defininently a violent individual. She'd been over the top in her punishments with him, but still he was beyond forgiveness now she simply hoped to apply this manner of thinking to the future if she chose to pursue this career further but right now she realized she had a duty not only to help Hector because of what he'd done but to help the police deal with Jace because she knew not only what he'd done but what he was capable of doing.

"Fine Hector..I'll come forward.. He has to be stopped." She was terrified of coming into contact with the brutal bullet proof criminal again, but Hector was right. If it wans't for her visions she'd have died in a coffin surrounded by excrement and insects, a night marish incident in of itself. "We'll go later today we can head to the station I have friends there they all think I'm dead, they know this super thug killed my husband, it's time we put a name and face, and let the police get a handle on what to do to stop him."

"Thanks Andrea, this means a-lot, this visions there a chance not just for me to help other people, but to help myself maybe one day..if I do enough I can forgive myself, I can feel like I've earned the right to accept that ultimately what happened to my daughters wasn't me..even if I was a part of it." He sighed and layed back in bed..the beer having not only rested him but kept the more detrimental effects of his alcohoslism at bay as he decided to sink back into a slumber ready to forge ahead and push through any more precognitive visions that might assault him and disturb his sleep as long as they gave him information to stop Jace, and save that woman's life it didn't matter he had to do this.

…............................................
"This is fucking crazy, like Jace you'veb literally LOST your fucking mind, and your telling me Luke is the fucking crazy one, like I mean I just." Tamara was just rambling on and on. Ever since Jace had kicked down a wall, took a bullet to the face, knocked out a security guard, and helped her escape the precint she didn't know what to think.

But she wasn't dumb enough to deny the existence of what was happening to her especially with her own brother utilizing superhuman abilities, and what happened at the hospital, but she was infuriated regardless that Jace had attacked Luke over a dispute involving them. "But I don't care if Luke is Professor X, a Jedi or whatever, he didn't do this to me, I'm telling you!!!"

"Okay your convinced Luke ain't did it, I'm telling you he's not a problem anymore so let's see if any more freaky psycho shit happens okay. We need to get out of here, I bought up some property in Florida where we can lay low, sooner or later people are gonna start looking for me, for you, hell for everyone with powers so we need to get moving."

Jace had come back to the apartment, and grabbed a few more things, he was actually beginning to get glad for this temporary period of sobriety it was allowing him a sense of clarity he hadn't had over the past few weeks since he'd been on a rush from the powers he'd been given. Tamara was trying to be the voice of reason but he just wasn't trying to hear it.

"Look Jace, bullets bounce of you, they don't bouce of me? Your gonna be with me 24/7, hell even if you are which you know damn well you don't want to be, your gonna be able to make sure none of the bullets hit me, I have a better chance LIVING if I turn myself in."

"You really think that, you see what they did to Devon and me over some fucking weed?! You caught 30 bodies, I know you ain't fucking do it I know you, even if I didn't knnow Luke, I'd know it wasn't you. You claim ya mind went blank, and Luke can fuck with your mind, can't you fucking put two and two together. You know what even if you wanna say its not Luke then that's worst, who's got it out for you that bad, last thing you recall is smoking with Luke then you left your apartment then bam your driving drunk and shooting people, I'm sorry but it all points to him, what are the likley hoods of two fucking people with the same power..being at the same place..at the same time come on?"

Tamara paused to bite her lip although Jace was always in a rage this time he had a point. She still refused to believe Luke would do that, he knew he was a drug dealer, and engaged in some other shady financial dealings to obtain money but he wasn't the the type of person to do this. Although she'd never questioned it she didn't know if Luke had spilled blood before but he didn't seem trigger happy, he was never trying to just go out and kill people, no that was her own brother apparently. "Look I have no idea, but I'm just saying just think about it please! There's bound to be more people with powers, maybe it wasn't the same as his power, maybe it was something else, but the fact that someone did this to us is bad! Look at what's become of our family in your attempt to get revenge you've got half of Atlanta looking for you, and sooner or later once they realize your powers your fucked, maybe bullets, and blades can't hurt you, but Uncle Sam will find something that does!"

Jace sighed thinking back to the situation with Cori when those agents had used poision on him and had a brief moment of fear, he'd literally seen his life ending all because of over-confidence so he didn't dismiss Tamara's worries. "Yeah you right that's why I'm done fighting, I was trying to live right, get Jesus In me, but it ain't working, I just need my family, we need to go please Tamara, if it's not Luke, and there's someone out there with that kind of power after you, then what makes jail any safer?! I'm telling you I fucked up, I don't get it one minute I'm strong, then I can't think straight, I dunno if it's my powers messing with my head, or just everything getting to me, but you know I love you sis, I love you, we already lost Devon to the system, if I was confident enough I'd bust into prison, take out all the guards, all the cops and walk him out myself, but I doubt even I can do that, so I'm not gonna let them just lock you away forever or let some super powered motherfucker hack your body again what if this time they make you kill ya self, feel me please." Jace was practically pleading with his sister at that point.

"Jace I.."She could tell her brother was concerned and really cared then she stopped to think. He had a point if someone could really hijack her mind and it wasn't Luke they were dangerous, of course she figured Luke might be one of the only people who could. "Then fine let's go, just stop the killing please, we ain't gonna live like this, I rather get taken away."

"Fine fine, I'm ready to go anyway, lemme just grab the rest of my food." He went over to the microwave to take out the rest of his chinese take-out when he heard a knock out the door, then some more aggressive knocks. He motioned for Tamara to run into the closet where he'd stored his gun, and he grabbed one of his own guns and waltzed towards the door slowly to listen in. " Final warning open the fucking door."

"Who the .." Just then the door was kicked down and Jace instinctively leapt to the ground as he heard something tumbling on the groudn then a massive bang. He closed his eyes as the flash grenade rocked his body even if it didn't cause him any pain, he heard foot steps tumbling on the ground and looked up to see armed SWAT men bursting in firing at him with tasers.

"NO!!!!" Jace screamed and ran up pushing two of the swat agents sending them flying across the room and against the walls with force, he snatched up a gun from one of the discarded soldiers and opened fire, causing some of the SWAT To duck down and open fire on him with their bullets of course having no effect." God damn it God damn it, I can't catch a fucking break." Jace opened fire on the SWAT agents gunning them down relentlessly and discarded the gun heading into the hallway to see three more agents coming in guns blazing opening fire on him. "FUCK!!!!!" Jace charged towards one of the agent full of rage surprising the agent as the bullets had no effect on him. He didn't know if they were here for him, or Tamara his main concern was how the hell they found him, and whoever made this possible well..there'd be hell to pay.

"You really expect us to believe this nonsense, Mendez it's clear you've been through a lot with your husband, and all that but this is crazy."

Andrea had accompanied Hector to the police station where her friends use to work out and was trying to get in contact with Emma Hazel, a long time friend of hers who worked in the police force, but the chief wasn't trying to hear it.

"Giant bullets came and hit buildings in a hospital, there's a man running around with super strength tearing up the APD and I'm telling you that man is fucking Jace Williams. I watched him do what he did to my husband with his bare hands, he's responsible for everything else involving the super thug, damn it! The only reason you guys aren't pursueing this is because of the super powered angle, you can't be stiff enough to not think powers are real after all this can you? Jesus Christ?!"

"Right well a report came in this morning, a former associate of Mr. Williams who claims she use to be sleeping with him, came in this morning, and confirmed his location for the reward money, we sent in the SWAT to neutralize him, so that should disprove any beliefs that he's anything more then a regular man."

"You can't be serious, are you really serious?!! I swear, he did this to me, he buried me alive, that man outside if it wasn't for him I'd be dead!!?!!"

"Then answer me this Andrea, you say this man ripped off your fingers, and did all this to you, then this guy Ramirez one of the worst alcoholics I've ever met and I've met plenty in the force just happens to stumble upon a graveyard, dig you out and then you start staying at his house the past few days? What it sounds like is you got assaulted, you went into shock, and you've been drinking a-lot and you've found someone else with as much tragedy in their life as you, all I can recommend is you let us handle it, I'm glad your alive Mendez your one of the best PO's downtown but I don't think Jace is superhuman, you've been through a lot, and this guy Ramirez your lucky I even let him in the office after the disgrace he was to the police force. Now get out, I don't want you spreading this nonsense any further in my station or I'll have someone remove you and you won't like my methods trust me I'm coming to you as a friend Andrea."

"Chief..."Andrea's voice trailed off but she was furious, she had an idea to just try to get on the news some how and tell people but she doubted she'd do any better. She stormed out and Hector saw the look of disapointment on her face, and sighed. He was ready to get out as plenty officers who he use to work with where giving him dirty looks about him being back there. Not only that he was itching for a smoke, after a few minutes of navigating through the station they were outside and Hector was sparking up a newport inhaling the poision.

"So I take it, it went about as well as expected, fuck it that girl is still gonna die, I know what the news says, but something dosen't add up, we gotta do something."

"Maybe it's a sign, saving a killer from another killer, does it really make sense, I mean fuck I'm almost drunk and it's just now afternoon, what the fuck is going on."

"Hey come on now afternoons are the perfect time to settle into a nice drunk, mornings are starting the buzz of heavy, and of course a shower beer...but yeah it looks like if we want to stop this motherfucker we're on our own, and I've been trying to go That's so Raven all morning but it's not working."

"Yeah you think all the Jameson we've been drinking might be a reason your powers aren't fully A1, I mean shit I don't know anything about super powers outside of watching the X Men movies but being drunk fucks up a-lot of stuff, so fuck I just need a smoke."

"Gladly" Hector offered her a new-port putting it between her lips and lighting it then shrugged his shoulders. "If being drunk fucks up powers, then I guess I'm one of the worsts people to have given powers with, because between visions of death and suffering and maitaining a constant buzz well I know which one I'd rather pick.." He said with some disdan for himself and his choices, alcoholism had been apart of his life for a while, these powers were three weeks old, and he didn't like the idea of checking into outpatient rehab while being assaulted by visions of death that he couldn't do anything about at least out here even if he was inebriated most of the time he had a chance of doing something.

"Yeah..maybe Chief was right about that, I can't stick around you all the time or I'll always be drunk, cause I can think of a million reasons why I'd rather be saued right now." SHe said sadly as she continued to smoke her ciggarett wishing they could do something or that the police at least took her infromation somewhat seriously about Jace's super powered rampage and what he did to her.

"Andrea! Your alive! I heard everything the Chief is crazy! Listen we need to talk." Emma came rushing out of the station ready to talk to Andrea and Hector as they smoked. Hector sighed but felt alright she was one of the few cops who came to him in his time of need, talking to him about AA classes, offering him to come to church with her, overall one of the few good cops if there were any and Andrea was happy to have both support and to see her friend again perhaps this trip to the police station wouldn't turn out to be a complete waste of time.
….............................
"That's not possible." Tamara said as she sat in the passenger seat of Jace's charger as they'd made his way from the apartment, he'd made sure to not use his powers to kill any agents although they'd seen bullets bounce of him, most of them were in the hospital, and it was time for him to make his eacpe to Florida anymore with Tamara, that was until they heard the news. Tamara was in so much disbelief she went on google to see it and there mass protests.

"It's here Jace! Tamara Williams who has been kidnapped by superhuman murderer has been granted bond of 30,000 thousand dollars which was paid by an anonymous person who claims he believes in her innocence, that's gotta be Luke it's gotta be!"

"So now you wanna admit he's using his mind shit huh, even if it is maybe it's just a play. Think about it, we just found out some bitch snitched on me, got the cops sent to my crib, and right after I whoop they ass they talking about a random motherfucker paid your bond, if Luke's got the mind mojo why he ain't do it himself."

"Maybe he's trying to stay lowkey, point is Jace drop me off! I don't have to do this, I can do more to help you like this, plus I can go to trial, your strong, but Luke he's different he actually thinks things through, he's not pissed 24/7, and with his mind powers who knows maybe he can.

"Maybe he can what are you fucking stupid?! Listen how do you know Luke ain't playing this whole scenario still I

"Stop the fucking caR!!!" Tamara demanded and Jace skidded to a halt going to park and sighing his sistet couldn't be convinced." I know Luke okay Jace! I don't know what's gotten into you, but you and him go way back, hell our brothers go way back, he wouldn't do this to us, if anything maybe your right, it's good you taking a break from smoking cause your powers might be fucking with your head, and Luke is prolly the one person who can help you but you don't want to fucking listen. The Feds coming after you, and Luke and people like you, then I wanna be a regular citizen doing my best to help yall! Please, now I'm going to find Lukey, you I suggest you keep on and get the fuck out of here, I see your strong bro..but you gotta be careful bruh..shit's gonna get real..you caught bodies..real bodies..and regarldess of the fact that some ofthem people are fucked up like Andrea, and Lauren that's not how the world at large will look at it." She got out the car and slammed the door before Jace rolled the windows and tossed her some cash.

"Look sis you don't need to be going around with no cash, cause right now ain't no one gonna hire you, just promise you'll stay lowkey, just promise."

"Yeah bro you need to follow your own fucking advivce jeez! Your whooping 12's ass left and right and you thinkt his not gonna bite you in the ass, man Devon got time for trapping, they going fuck around and stick you with life once they find a way to put you down and a cage to stick you in if not kill you, I love you but you need to chill, something is dead ass wrong with you to just be tearing people apart like this..just get help..I'll see if Luke can do anything please just make peace bro it's not worth all this it's not it's not!

"Fine call yo self uber, and go striaght home, please call me when you get to Luke's otherwise I'm bringing my ass right back down here and I'm fucking hi up, I'm fucking all yall up, I swear I want to move on from this shit but its gotta be this way, now I gotta bounce be safe sis, I'll figure some out, you know I will I gots to, shit going change I swear."

"Yeah you want change, then find that Harley Quinn bitch who killed the mayor's daughter and all them students like she's inspired because of you! She your own little evil psycho bitch, a match made in hell, you ask me you wanna kill people kill her now thanks for the cash but get outta here." Tamara said before walking away.

Jace looked at his sister with worry he still felt she was walking into a trap of sorts but she was grown woman, and as long as the police were coming after she she'd be in danger. He didn't want to confess to her that he'd put his foot through Luke literally, he literally couldn't confess the murder of his friend to her. The guilt was eating up, yet the day before he was filled with rage and joy to mess him up and that Ariana chick, he wondered if Tamara would ever speak to him after all of that was found out. He decided as long as she was alive it didn't matter if they were cool, and he started up his car and pulled off to make his way to his new home in Florida.

Empowered!!! (Closed)!

Collab with KIDD

Just her first day in Atlanta had been one hell of an experiance. Ariana sat in her motel, one hand fishing french fries out of a McDonald's bag and the other clicking between windows on her laptop. She was reviewing news and the fotage she managed to get when the hospital was attacked, and since she had discovered that the attack was indeed done with a bullet. "Why was it so large though?" she wondered with a tired sigh. It wasn't until she rewatched the news coverage that she noticed familiar faces. She blinked and sat up in the bed, squinting at Tamara in the video. "Holy shit," she muttered and looked around for her phone.

She found it, the case fluffy and white. First, she found Tamara as an old contact and tried to reach her. However, when she didn't get an answer, Ariana squinted her eyes at the phone in annoyance. Then she tried another number: Luke's. "Pick up, anyone," she pleaded quietly, gazing around the motel room.

Luke was freaking out today had started off good, with a smoke session to behold all smoke sessions and now it was going down hill vey fast. He was high and maybe that was part of way he was freaking out, he'd went to get Lucy but decided to just her sleep. She'd been through alot already going after Jace, her powers, loosing her job, being barred from her own apartment, the car accident, and basically being on the run, compared to him she had been hit with a train of problems.

"Fuck this dosen't make any sense." He knew Tamra was prone to have some anger especially with him but often it was either him, Jace, or someone else who provoked it. They weren't one of the people she shot at, and he doubted she'd even shoot them. He was already out the apartment, being that this was an emergency he stopped to only roll two blunts and put them in a game green pack that he put in his pocket before he dipped out. Tamara had taken her car, and Lucy's was pretty banged up, plus he didn't want her keys. He ended up catching a Lyft to the remnants of his apartment, going to his car which was luckily still parked and got in." I gotta go help her" He felt his phone buzzing and looked down to see Arianna's number and squinted." Arianna." He knew she'd graduated and finished college and was about to ignore it given the circumstances but with everything going on the past few days he decided to answer if anything i'd be good to hear a familar voice." Hello? Arianna was good" Hopefully you got sumn to say cause ain't shit good on my end not at all

"Oh good, you answered! Luke, hey, I'm in Atlanta right now and I'm looking into all this...crazy. And I saw Tamara on the news, but she didn't pick up, so I was wondering if you know anything about what happened at the hospital?" she said quickly. Even when she was still in school, Ariana had always been a bit of a motormouth, but now she wanted information and she wanted it ASAP.

Luke chuckled a bit when Arianna said that, back when he was selling more heavilly he tended to be bad about picking up the phone from time to time depending on what he was doing and how high he was. "Oh your back in the A, you sure picked a bomb ass time." He said with sarcasm he started up his vehicle, and turned off the radio switching to the AUX he didn't want to hear any generic mumbling right now. "All this shit you want my advice..stay away..everything is going to shit out here in the city..as a friend I'm being forreal, yo ass is always curious and trying to investigate well you heard abour curiosity killing the cat right? Tamara...went on a fucking shooting spree, there's about 20-30 people dead according to the news, as for the hospital I happened to be in it when that shit happened I literally saw my life flash before my eyes, people died all around me..." Luke's voice tapered off..and he sighed. "Look point is I know Tamara, you know Tamara there's no way she'd go on a fucking killing spree, if anything she'd shoot me or Jace! I gotta figure out what happened, I don't believe it, it dosen't make sense Arianna." He knew he probably sounded crazy but after seeing people with powers, people controlling the weather, and giant bullets in the streets of Atlanta he was willing to bet this wasn't the most asinine thing to happen this past month.

Ariana scowled and her brows furrowed as she listened. "Hm." Luckily for Luke, he didn't sound completely crazy to the young woman--she had been following incidients just like this since the Storm. "I don't think you're crazy, Luke. I already know...things are going on, and that's why I wanted to talk to Tamara about what happened. What do you think happened exactly?"

Luke thought Arianna would hang up on him, honestly it felt good to talk to a friend who wasn't directly involved in all this insanity, now he was remembering picking on her about her career but a journalist was something the city needed right now."You know things ar egoing on or you saw them on the news Arianna big difference. And you think talking to her is gonna be easy, she just allegedy shot down 30 people and it's all over the internet, you know what's going on with her brother he's a wanted fugitive....for some prior crimes, and now he's connected to all these murders..and some maniac running around with super strength ripping cops in half like napkins it's a fucking mess..fuck. "Luke was upset even though him and Tamara weren't official he wanted to help her, he thought about calling Kieran but decided against it this wasn't the type of situation he felt his secretive friend could help him with. "I...well it's hard to explain..just...actually..where are you Arianna? Trying to link up?" Luke inquired he figured this called for a situation where he might need her specific talents.

"I'm at some shitty motel--I forget the name," she said as she shifted a bit where she sat. "And I know things are going on. I have--" She paused, glancing to her harddrive. That was also a lot to explain, so she just sighed. It was clear that he knew a lot that she didn't, especially since she hadn't been in Atlanta in months. "Let's meet up. You can explain it, I can help put it together."

"Shitty motel huh I told you to get ya money up Arianna" He joked remembering how he'd often tell her about how she might want to change her major or pick up another method to continue to stack money. "Alright perfect I'll be on the way over there..." He decided he'd meet up with her i'd give him some time to think about this whole situation and get Arianna's opinion on what to do.

It wasn't long before he'd gotten her location and was pulling up to the front of the hotel, or motel rather considering how shitty it was. He'd stopped by the gas station to grab some soda's for him and Arianna and texted her to say he was outside. "Come on Arianna." He wasn't the most patient person not now, and right now he was pressed for time.

After hanging up, Ariana had closed her laptop and shoved her dirty laundry under the bed. She threw on a hat to hide the mess that was her hair, and when her phone dinged, she peered out the window. Sure enough, there was Luke. She hopped on and over the bed to open the door to the old friend. "Luke, hey, c'mon in-- Or we could go somewhere else, I don't really care. This place is just trash," she rambled, glancing down and kicking a bra away from the door.

Luke saw the bra getting kicked away from the door and wasn't sure whether to be aroused or disgusted he decided he was both but more importantly focused on helping Tamara. "Umm...how about you just hop in my whip and we go somewhere else." He didn't want to be rude but there was no way he was stepping into that motel. At Least Arianna's still sexy as ever, only reason I'll ever let her slide being messy as fuck. "Yeah the "place" is trash let's dip." He said and reached over to open up the door, he just wanted to get out of there.

"Yeah, that's fair," Ariana agreed. "Two seconds." And with that, she stepped away from the door to grab her laptop and phone. Both were dropped into a bookbag, and she eyed the harddrive. She could leave it here, but she didn't trust security, but who knows what trouble she could run into out there. Sighing, she grabbed it and dropped it into the bag, too. "Okay, I'm all set," she said as she quickly walked back, ducking out of the motel and locking the door behind her. "Where we going?"

"Perfect" Luke was glad he didn't have to argue with her. He wasn't about to head in that motel. He was glad that she just came in the car. "Perfect" He waited for her to get in the car, and pulled off taking one of the blunts out of his game green packet, and sparking it up. "You still be smoking gas Arianna" He said as he drove for a couple minutes before he pulled into a secluded parking lot and turned off the car and rolled up the windows to hotbox. "Okay..so tell me this..what all info do you have about everything? What all do you think you know..cause I guarantee you don't know the half of it." He said as he took another big ass hit of the blunt and offered it to Arianna as he awaited her answer.

It had been a while since she smoked, but she was a bit of a yes woman. "Thanks," she said simply before taking the blunt. "I know," she began, pausing to take a hit-- and it had been a while.She nearly coughed the smoke back up, but managed to hand it back cooly. I know that there are people with superpowers popping up all over the world, and I can bet that's what's causing all the chaos here in Atlanta. I mean, it cannot be a coincidence that all this starts happening after that Storm." She wouldn't have been so open and straightfoward, but she sensed Luke wouldn't give her the time of day if she didn't offer something--he sounded wrapped up in it, anyway. "What's the half I don't know?" she asked.

Luke heard her thoughts about how she hadn't smoked in a while but simply oblidged. He felt a bit guilty he didn't like pressuring anyone to smoke but he didn't want to smoke alone either and at least he hadn't "Cocerced" her. He laughed when she coughed." Huh baby lungs still "He said accepting the blunt back and taking a few more hits. "Yeah your half right, the other half is...well..I'll be blunt..no pun intended cause I slick need your help..."He figured he had nothing to loose with this Arianna wasn't someone he was too worried about. "I'm one of these people who has something happen to me with the storm too...." He said using his power to motion the blunt from his hand over to Arianna's lips after his last hit, and then released his mental hold over the blunt. " That shit..happened pretty soon after the super storm..and I think..someone else with powers.....got to Tamara some how."

Ariana felt her cheeks warm when he laughed at her and she lightly shoved him, her lips pursing together in a pout. "Shut up," she grumbled, but was instantly listening again as he continued. Then her eyebrows raised and her eyes widened as he admitted to being one of the supers she's been investigating. She was ready to deny it, demand some proof, but he willingly showed off. The blunt was to her lips and she gasped, reaching up to hold it so it would drop after he released his hold over it. "Oh my God, that's incredible," she breathed. If it wasn't in her hand, she would've forgotten about the blunt, but she went ahead and sucked ddown a huge hit. "If you think that," she said, handing it over as she thought, "[color=lf9d66c]then I wanna help prove it. But, one, it.. could've been her, Luke. And two, proving it wasn't...[/color]" Her voice trailed off as her eyes flickered about, her mind searching for the right words. "Well, proving it is going to take evidence. Are you okay with that?"

Luke was getting use to just revealing his powers, they were becoming a natural part of him, so soon other people around him would know. He wondered what his mama and the rest of his family would think about his abilities. " Yeah it's pretty dope, but for all the shit it's gotten me into it's almost not worth it..." He sighed he remembered watching Justice League and X Men, how things always went bad for them. He accepted the blunt and took a hit." You wanna help but how I need your help you've got the ideas and I've got the powers..I was thinking about just going to the police station to get her..but there's a bunch of cops not to mention I'm in a police report..I got attacked by some empowered dude and lived to tell..the same man out there killing cops so I'm already...got too much expose..like when you say evidence what you mean? I can't just show up there and use my powers especially after what's been going on, sooner or later with how some of these dumb ass's are acting with their powers the Government is gonna come round us up on some x Men shit, and I'm trying to be able to lay low when that happens...so I dunno what to do but I can't let Tamara rot in prison fuck.."Luke poured out his feelings about everything that happened as he took two more hits from the blunt and passed it to Arianna.

"It's fucked," she muttered as she took the blunt. "We'll figure it out, don't worry. And I think we need to start by finding the person who actually did it. They want someone in bars for what happened--we can't just bust her out. But if we give them the person who did it--with proof--they have to let her go." She paused to take a hit, eyes flickering about as she thought. "I don't know how we're going to get that proof--or even who did it. What do you know? Who would've done that to Tamara and how?" As she spoke, she handed the blunt back to Luke in exchange for her laptop and shifted in the seat.

Luke hit the blunt a couple more times, then rolled down the window and tossed out the roach. He reached in his glove compartment and took out some blunt spray pressing it down and spraying a couple times. " Your not getting what I'm saying, it's definently Tamara who did it.. I mean I seen the news...I see all the video's circulating..well unless it's a shape shifter but.." Luke paused he was high he didn't even pause to think about the possibility of that till he said it, now with all these powers anything was possible. "Look so I can't just move things with my mind I can do this too, I can control people, mind control. If you don't believe me..I can make you do something..but point is if I can do it..what if someone else can do it or a different type of mind control, or a shape shifter or whateve power..I mean who knows what eveyone can do it's too many damn possibilities, but I know I need to go to the police station and read Tamara's mind....to see if I can find anything out problem is..I'm probably already on the cop's radar from getting beat up yesterday." He sighed at least he'd never got any heat from selling drugs, but now this situation was far worst.

Ariana had put her feet up on the dash as she clicked through her files, eyes squinting against the screen. Then she paused and looked over at Luke as he continued. "I believe you, Luke," she said. She had already seen some of what he could do and there were much wilder things going on. "Shape shifter, another mind controller-- either way, it wasn't really Tamara. I understand, okay?" She sat up straighter. "Usually someone in jail gets, like, a visitor, right? But I don't know if that's the case after a slaughter like that." She chewed on her lip, finger tapping against the keyboard. Then she sighed. "Ugh, this is difficult-- Okay. You were the one who got beat up, right? Just...and I'll go in with you...go in and say you want to give a statement or something, yeah? I can play decoy and you can get to Tamara. I'd be down to bust her out, but that would put her in more trouble, I think." She closed the laptop. "And I'll look for any other...similar happenings until then."

Luke was glad that Arianna wasn't super judgemental about his powers or everything that happened, he wondered if he'd end up in an article she was writing or something but he hoped not. "Thanks Arianna" He was glad to have someone especially someone without powers who understood where he was coming from. "Not in jail, there's no visitors..well I mean you can schedule a visit but she's not really in jail yet..she got booked, and they didn't give her a bond because mass murder..yeah..there gonna throw the book at her, her court date is probably gonna be in a few days, something that violent with that much video evidence.."Busting her out might be too much you know..and I'm not exactly Superman yeah I've got powers but..it's not just cops down there..it's FBI agents..I doubt I can take all of them own,,I've only fought one person with my powers..and I got the shit beat out of me..soo...still..I was thinking of using my mind control to get in there...the problem is all the camera's will see me going on, getting cops to agree to do things they'd never fucking do, and then me walking out with Tamara, that's gonna ring lots of bells too many, ." Luke sighed this was a real bad situation. "I can't think of anything else....we might have to just try your plan I can't let her get life in prison for this."

Ariana couldn't help but laugh a bit. "Luke, the problem wouldn't be getting you in and out. You could use your powers to make them wipe or hand over the fotage or whatever. I mean, the mind control is kinda fucked up, but we're pretty desperate, yeah? You could totally make a pit stop to the security room and get the cameras shut off." She nodded, in that moment wishing she had some cool powers. "The problem will start, though, when they realize she's gone and wanna come after her. But I'll work on that--on getting evidence to prove she's innocent. Whoever used her is still out there--we just gotta find 'em," she explained simply.

"Hmm your right" Luke admitted he hadn't thought about this he was actually glad he'd went and gotten Arianna now they just had to make this work. "I wasn't even thinking about all that shit..damn so that's all I gotta do but still getting Tamara out her life is gonna be fucking impossible, i'd be hard enough with me and I have powers, she's just Tamara." Luke sighed he just wanted to at least get to read her mind and figure out what happened then he'd have something to go on from there." Alright at least if I talk to her and get into her head I can see what happened, I've recently been learning how to peek into people's memories so like I can see stuff people have done..I can figure out what happened." Alright let's go." Luke decided to spray a couple more times, and put his last blunt which was still in a game green pocket in the glove compartment before he pulled out the parking lot and headed to the police station." Aye if everything goes well we can grab something to eat whatever you want on me." He said as they pulled into the parking lot and he rolled up the windows, and got out the car and sighed." Alright I'll follow your lead." I hope this works..I can't leave Tamara to rot.

Once they pulled up, Ariana hesitated. Now she regretted bringing the harddrive. She pursed her lips and pulled her bag up to shoulder it. She stepped out of the car and drew in a breath. "My lead, huh? Well, okay," she said, staring up at the police station. She never did trust her government--and maybe it tied into her interest in journalism--so now that she was actually confonting just the local police, it was a little scary. "In we go, then. You're gonna have to get them to tell us where the camera room is and where the fotage is stored so we can get that out of the way first." With that, she walked ahead.

Luke was glad he got to smoke earlier in the day before he got there, because if he'd smoked any sooner it would have been a bad idea to walk inside a police station. "Alright good idea..we don't need to get on camera damn this is fucked up." Luke followed her into the police station and saw police officers everywhere he could hear their thoughts about different cases and heard Arianna's own nervous thoughts and wished he could help her. Don't be nervous Arianna..be calm. Luke thought to himself and was surprised when he heard his own voice in his head and felt the familar tingle when he pushed a thought into someone's head. What the fuck did I just literally speak to her with my mind..and use mind control..I thought I had to speak outloud to do that.. Luke was confused about what he'd just done but then he had another idea it was gonna be hard to just speak out-loud abot going to the security room anyway. "Hey officer listen I really need your help." It's ya boy Luke was popping fam, you finna direct us to the security room and then not remember taking us up there....cause we is not the high people you looking for "Remember what we talked about?" Luke said after directing his mental command.

The officer raised an eyebrow and nodded. " Oh yes come this way, my apologies My boy Luke." He said luckily out of ear shot of other cops, and Luke had to surpress a giggle this new aspect of his power was going to make being high so much fun. "Alright come on Arianna." He said managing a low snicker as the officer lead them towards the security room.

Ariana blinked at him and her brows furrowed together--part of her wanted to snap at him for being in her head, but she did appreciate the gesture. Oh geeze, has he been reading my mind the whole time? she thought, pulling her hat down in embarressment. Though when Luke talked to the officer, she waited anxiously, tensing as she waited for the response aaaand-- She grinned from ear to ear and looked to Luke with a thumbs up. Already it was going well, and she stepped in line beside Luke as she looked around, eyeing the cameras that would have recorded them walking in already.

Not the whoooole time..honestly I was hoping you'd have some more PG-13 slash R rated thoughts but I guess I'll slide out your head since I just used some trigger words. Luke couldn't help but mess with his old friend this whole thing was funny getting high and mind controlling cops, except the situation wasn't that much of a joke since Tamara's life was st stake. It wasn't long before they got there, and the police officer let them in the door the three secuirty guards all got up but Luke put his power to the test again. " Sit down, I'm a friendly black criminal not here to kill you or take your white women..now then get rid of all the footage..for the past two hours, umm..turn the cameras off..and..just bullshit..I mean that's all you cops do anyway..also let me and her get some of those donuts over there.. oh also we're your bosses so WORK fools." Luke instructed the security guards as he went over to the table seeing two boxes of dunkin donuts they'd been eating and grabbed a maple glazed donut and bit into it.

"Mhmmm." [i][u] "Okay I'm gonna go see what's poping in Tamara's head, stay here with the security guards text me if you see anything weird happen on the screens..enjoy the donuts..hopefully I can find out who did this to her." [/i][/u] He finished his donut and wiped his hands and headed towards the door to step out." Thanks Arianna." He said he'd really needed her help, sure he had powers but he was running on pure emotion before he linked up with her and his plan would have been lessed organized then this."

Ariana sighed, making that pouty face at Luke again. Getting in her head, playing with the guards. Keep the mind contrl to a minimal, would ya? she thought at him as he bit into a donut. Still, the plan was working out so far and he was growing comfortable with his powers, so that was good. She didn't exactly want to stay with the guards, but he was right--he needed someone in here watching the cameras for him. "No problem, Luke. I wanna help," she explained simply with a shrug. And, as he left, she sat on the desk and looked between the guards. "You guys got any card games ooor..?"

About fifteen minutes later Luke shot Arianna a text. Hey I've managed to get to Tamara right now but this is crazy..she's all in tears and stuff but...her mind is blank like the past 3-4 hours is blank, like when I look into your head or anyone else's I've mind controlled their memories are still there..it's so weird like it was her but not her...or..someone else took her memories I mean it's looking like there's another telepath..just be careful we have no idea who it could be "Listen Tamara..I believe you.. I know you saying it wasn't you, you think I just believe the cops, I had to pull so much to get in here."

"Luke you ain't seen it! I've seen all the news, I killed those people, am...am I crazy..I'm fucking crazy...oh my god..some of those people were teenagers..what if I shot a kid, good lawwd what if I shot a kid!!" Tamara was about to burst into tears, Luke wanted to help her, tell her it was all people with powers, but even with the camera's off they were still in a police station, and things could get crazy pretty quickly. He wanted to find out more, but with her memories being blank there wasn't much he could do.

In the hallway near Arianna..suddenly the sound of gun shots was heard, and yelling. More gun shots were heard, and screaming, then some loud banging noises. The security guards all jumped up when suddenly the door was ripped off the hinges and Jace stepped in with his helmet on, and dresesd in all black bullet holes from head to toe. "I had to kill a lot of stupid ass mother fuckers to get here..." One of the security guards fired a bullet at Jace that hit his chest and crunched off, he grabbed the bullet and tossed it into the guard's eye, then grabbed the door and tossed it at the other two guards then turned to Arianna and stepped towards her then frowned." Arianna......? What the fuck are you doing here?!" He was about to smush her but he remembered hanging out with her at parties and such back when she use to be around Luke and Tamara. Fuck why is she here?!!!

Ariana had to pause the game of Uno to open Luke's text. She squinted at the screen, eyes narrowing in concern. She was hoping Tamara's mind could lead them right to their guy, but it looked like the work would be on her afterall. She adjusted her hat and was about to tap back a reply when she heard the first gunshot-- and then more. "Oh God," she gasped, looking around for a place to hide. But then in busted the perpetrator, helmet and all-- just like the guy from the news who kicked Luke's ass.

She screamed when he stepped at her, but suddenly stopped and blinked at the sound of her own name. He knew her. "Y-yeah-- I'm just," she stammered, looking for an answer. "I'm helping... a friend. What are are you doing here--why d-did you kill these people? Who are you?"

"Helping a friend, first off don't just bullshit me I follow you on snapchat, AND Facebook so I know you not a motherfucking cop." Just as he said this one of the security guards tried to get up, and Jace walked over to him lifting his head and slamming him into the ground to knock him out then picked up the damaged door and tossed it into the security camera's. "Fucking pigs." He spoke in disgust about the cops then lifted off his helmet seeing the camera's were messed up. "It's Jace, and calm ya ass down I ain't kill the security guards..I mean ...as far the other cops in the station I ain't intentionally kill em but if they was in me way then they got smashed or sprayed shit gang shit, now I'm gonna need you to tell me what the fuck your here and maybe since we all use to kick it and smoke gas back when you went to STate I won't fucking kill you, and by chance you wouldn't happen to know where my sister is..I'm here to pick her up." Jace spoke the last part calmy as if he was going to getting his sister from an after-care program or from work.

"Jace?! Oh my God--" she started, then stopped, realization setting it. He would've been the one who fought Luke and now he was killing cops and all for... "Oh noooo," she groaned, dropping her face into her hands and shaking her head. "Jace, I'm here to get your sister out," she explained, the dread lowering her voice. "This is bad. We were going to be in and out without a trace and it would've given us some time. But now you're here, wrecking the place--" She paused, her eyes narrowing as her mind raced. She looked between him and the broken camera screens. "We're getting your sister out--I know she's innocent. But you can help in another way?"

"Naw don't call me God, I'm alright with Daddy tho." He snickered he was just here to get his sister out, so far the whole turning his life to Jesus and not smoking wasn't doing him well since he was irritated, stressed, and Tamara got booked for 30 murder charges. "Your here to get Tamara out." Jace couldn't help but start laughing wondering how Arianna of all people was going to get his sister out of jail. "Jesus I'm in tears, first off...we cool but let's get sum straight you is not no good repoter, and you know that damn well..name one big story..you've done since you graduated....I'll cut it short not a single fucking one and you think your gonna get my sister out of this? Even OJ's lawyer prolly couldn't help her right now. Help in what way, the way I'm finna help is I'm gonna tear this place apart, I'm grabbing my sister and were getting the fuck out the country, I know damn well she ain't do this, I know who did! You prolly still on his dick too..but I ain't here to preach I'm getting Tam, then I'm killing Luke for mind fucking my sister, then I'm out if you can speed up the process do so, I'd really like to not have to hulk smash you so like my boy Captain Planet use to be saying back in the day the choice is yours so spit it out foo." He said getting irritated fast.

Ariana blinked and shrunk back as Jace went off--he was something else. "My thinkpiece on salad diversity went vi--" she tried to interupt, but Jace went on and she looked away, pouting. Though he did say something helpful, even if she was pretty afraid for Luke in that moment. "Wait, wait, Jace, who did it? You don't understand-- I'm not only trying to break her out. I want to prove she's innocent, too. But I gotta know who made her do it. Breaking her out like the hulk or whatever isn't going to help her, Jace, let me prove she's innocent." She was quick to switch her "we" to "I" because she had a feeling drawing attention to Luke in that moment was the last thing she needed to do.

"Man fuck yo salad, Arianna you don't get it this ain't bout no mother fucking meal, you know what I'm saying none of the shit you write, has writtten or iz going write is muthafucking important so I'm not leaving Tamara's life in ya hands jesus that's like retiring Stephen Curry, and letting some special ed kid hit the court instead, ther'es levels to this shit." He was frustrated he was getting tired of this feeling like Tamara's life was in the balance and he wasn't trying to deal with her fake reporter friend. "It's fucking Luke fuck you mean, you ain't going belive me not that I give a damn you see the shit I can do, Luke can do shit too but he fucks with your head, him and Tamara been beefing, he prolly fucked with her and made her do that shit fucked up her whole life..and you know damn well Luke hates Mcdonalds, so honestly it just makes mafucking sense trust me I ain't smoked no weed in 11 hours I've had plenty of time to think logically as fuck." He sighed he was getting irritated with wasting time. "Look tho you claiming you wanna help her, then why you in the security room, that means you was with someone else who else you pulled up to the station wit don't lie to me girl or I'll smack yo ass into the afterlife."

Oh, that was bad. And admittedly, Luke's mind control did make her wonder, but she knew better. He wouldn't be putting himself in the position he's in to break a girl out who had put in jail. But considering Jace's...logic, she wasn't sure she could convince him of that, so her mind raced to figure out a correct answer to his demand. "Jace, listen. It wasn't Luke--he wouldn't do that to Tamara, even with his freaky powers." She swallowed and licked her lips. She was hoping to buy Luke more time, but now she wasn't sure she could. "I'm here with a friend," she stated slowly, eyes wandering as she struggled. "And...I mean, if it is Luke, let me get the proof. The police won't let Tamara go if they don't have the guy who actually did it, right? Just--just leave Luke alone for now and I'll get proof that'll, like, actually put him behind bars."

Jace sighed he wasn't trying to hear this, he wanted to get his sister and get going but now he had to deal with Arianna. If it wasn't for Arianna being a friend of Tamara's he'd just snap her neck or kill her or just knock her out. "Hmm interesting so you know Luke has powers, you use to be Luke's friend and now your just conventinetly at the police station where I'm here to get my sister, and your defending Luke, all this shit A proves my point of you being a brainless dick rider who can't get no motherfucking job cause your a shit reporter, and two I feel like you fucking here with "my boy" Luke, so in short Bitch ya lying, I'm finna beat ya ass, then I'm gonna find my sister, and we're out, you ever pop percocet before? Cause you going need a whole bottle after I'm done rearraging ya limbs stupid ho." He was furious and wasn't ready to listen to Arianna as he took a step forward.

As he was about to get closer to Arianna he was suddenly launched through the roof by an invisible force as Luke rushed in. "Arianna!!!!!!" He rushed over to her and hugged her then looked around seeing the damage." Are you okay?! What the fuck did that crazy ass motherfucker do to you I heard his thoughts we gotta go..Tamara's got no memory but the last thing she remembers is talking to some crazy ass kid who lived with her neighors boss."

There was a loud crash in another part of the building and a wall was kicked open as Jace stepped in." Luke yo bitch ass motherfucker, you going blast me?! YOU GOING BLAST ME! YOU STUPID FUCK!!!!! I will kill you!!! Enough is Enough you stupid shit." Jace marched over to Luke and punched a hole in his chest, then pushed him forward turning to Arianna and laughing before grabbing her by her head and ripping it off laughing turning to Luke who was in tears, and got up to launch a teleknatic blast only for Jace to lunch forward kicking his foot through Luke's skull." STUPID BITCH!!! BURN IN HELL !!!!!!!!!!"

In reality...Luke was ushering Arianna out of the room as Jace was rummaging around through the hallways tearing apart the police station and he was breathing heavilly." Fuck...that was close..something about his power lets it interfere with my mind power..but I..fucked with his head he's practically finna bust a nut with excitement now that he thinks he killed us, we gotta go if he breaks Tamara out it's on him, but I damn sure don't want to tangle with Jace right now come on, it won't be long before there's hella cops here!" He said breathing heavilly as he'd managed to force an illusion into Jace's head the most streneous task he'd used his powers for yet.

"Oh my God, Luke, he thinks you're the one who did that to Tamara," she spilled as they left the station. Then she hesitated despite being high on the adrenaline and fear and just coming down from the weed. That did not go as planned at all, but they would at least be able to pin the break out on Jace after that. And now they were back at square one--almost. She wondered who the "crazy ass kid" was, but she figured she'd need to tend to Luke first, and getting the fuck outta there. "Do you need me to drive?" she said, putting a hand on his arm to help him to the car.

"Yeah I realized that, he's also fucked up in the head, something's wrong with him, like he's always been pissed and fighting but it's like his powers are fucking with his head somehow, like I don't know how to explain it but I when I read your mind I can sort of see not just what your thinking but how your thinknig when I read his mind he'll be rational...then..all of a sudden his thoughts are off the fritz...they get way more intense..or when he's killing people they just go down like he dosen't care..it's crazy.. "Luke sighed he didn't know how to really explain this as he handed Arianna the keys. Plus it wasn't like Jace was willing to sit down and let him examine his mind, but it was if the strength of his emotions and thoughts were going up and down either intentionally or beyond his control. "Yeah drive let's get out of here, fuck it took so much out of me to do that..it was like using a painting app but with my mind I literally had to make up a scenario, day dream it out while making Jace see the day dream..but it was easy cause I played into his savage ass imagination but come on let's go..I'm fucking starving.." He was glad he had some information both about what was wrong with his friend's head, and about what happened to tamara.

"I didn't even get a donut," Ariana realized sadly before getting into the car. She started the car as she listened to Luke, nodding. "Well you saved me, I think, whatever you did. I knew Jace was aggressive as a kid, but-- I think he was actually gonna kill me," she said, her tone still sad. She was distressed, admittedly, with the chaos going on and it being caused by people like Jace. She wished it was more like the movies, where the supers used their powers to wear stupid costumes and save the day. "Oh well," she sighed, putting the car in drive. "Let's get some food and figure this out."

Luke couldn't help but laugh as she mentioned the donut, probably the only thing funny about that. "Yeah well I only got one, and between Tamara's crying and Jace's rage my high was blown too." He sighed he felt bad that Tamara of all people got put in this position, she'd nearly gotten killed yesterday, a car accident, then been powered into killing people, and now her super psycho brother was busting her out of jail. " I mean I really wanna say Jace wouldn't do that I mean yall use to be cool..but ya know without my powers Jace would have killed me yesterday. "Luke was saddened by the fact that his friend of 3 years had gone so crazy. "Alright what do you want to eat?" He said as he went into the glove compartment to retrieve one of the numerous marijuana soda's he kept stashed away for when he was stressed, and popped open the cap for the "Sour Diesel Soda" and chugged some down, before using his power to move one of them over to Arianna's side." Drink up if you want, it'll make this shit easier to deal with" He thought as he sat back in his seat.

"Not McDonald's," Ariana said simply and shook her head at the offer. "Thanks, but I need to think and put all this together..." It was lucky that Luke was able to get something out of Tamara, and it point them in the direction of a potential suspect. They were one step closer to clearng her name--and it'd be much easier if Jace had stayed out of it. "You know. Jace was fucking crazy, but he had the same goal as us. Maybe he'll come around or something," she suggested hopefully. Even she had changed her goal a bit: she came to Atlanta looking for a big story, but here she was, driving away after nearling helping someone bust out of prison. Despite the chaos, it brought a small, sad smile to her face as she pulled up to a steak house. "On you, right?" she reminded him with a shit-eating grin.

"Right right..okay..a meal like this you should be putting out afterwards." Luke teased as they got out the car, his breathing was back to normal and honestly he was in the mood for something good. He always had expensive taste so it didn't really bother him like she said he certainly wasn't eating Mcdonalds, especially since two of them had been eradicated in the past three days. He walked over to a trash can and dropped the empty marijuana soda bottle in the can. "Jace is fucking crazy..but yeah he definently still loves his sister..so at least he's not a complete monster..I guess..he still needs someone to beat the shit out of him and beat some sense into him."He promptly decided still not over the fact that Jace beat his ass, and also the fact that he was happy killing him and Arianna in the illusion he'd sent into his head.

He opened the door for her, and within minutes a waitress lead them to a booth and left them with menu's. "Hmm" He thought wondering what to order as the marijuana edible started to kick in. "Question Arianna..what all did you come to Atlanta for I mean yeah you came for a story, but what did you wanna find, what did you or should I say do you want to do?" He decided since the situation with Tamara was somewhat resolved they could talk about other things for now.

Ariana blinked at his question, looking up from the menu. "Oh," she said, looking around. "I...pretty much already have a story," she admitted, shrugging her book bag off to rest it next to her. "I came here to find proof, though, and as much evidence as I can. People with powers have been supposedly been popping up every since the Storm, ya know? If I can prove it, I'll hit it big! She paused, wondering how that may have sounded to Luke--he was a perfect subject if she wanted to ask someone to demonstrate, but, "I wasn't sure how I'd go about it, but now that we're tracking down who ever fucked with Tamara's mind...I think I'm onto something." She wouldn't mind exposing a criminal.

"That's what I Was worried about you have a story about me..Tamara, and Jace...what's gonna happen if you make a story about us? I'm pretty sure I'll loose my job the next day and now I'm not talking about selling,plus I'm sure some men in suits that are part of some American three letter agency will drop by to take me away." He stopped as the waitress came by to bring the drinks, and Luke took a sip of his lemonade. "I'm just saying just think before you start rushing into making a story, after what happened at the hospital I'm pretty sure most of the coutnry has an inkling that this powers shit isn't bullshit, I know lots of people in Atlanta are convinced I can hear it in their thoughts. Just wanna let you know you could potentially ruin people's lives, end people's careers, get people's parents locked up or their children taken away, destroy everything so many people have worked for over something that happened to them that they couldn't control.." Luke could definently feel the marijuana soda hitting him but he was sure he'd feel this way without all the THC coursing through him.

Ariana frowned a bit as he spoke. Admittedly, she hadn't considered all of that. Of course she suspected people wouldn't want others to know about their powers, but the prospect of ruining other people's lives... She didn't want to do that. "Luke, you're right, but..." Her voice trailed off and she sighed. "If they're not exposed, there's nothing else to explain why Tamara shot up a McDonald's. There's no serious research being done to reverse it--to maybe help Jace--" She stopped and chewed on her lip, eyes flickering about the menu as she looked for words. "I think it'll be good for people to know. It'll protect innocent people. The truth needs to be out there." She nodded, feeling less comfortable but still confident in her goal. She flinched when the waitress was suddenly standing there and she laughed nervously. "Hey, yeah, I'll take the ribs--the full slab, yes," she started.

"Dam you finna eat all that whew...Jesus, I'll just get the 8 ounce sirloin with a side of steamed broccoli's, and some fries, oh and uhh another lemonade too." Luke definently had a love for lemonade. "He just shook his head as their orders were taken down and laughed. "I see both sides of the coin, I'm just letting you know, your gonna ruin lots of people's lives, and I'd personally like to quit my job, I dunno if you noticed but I don't sell drugs anymore, I still smoke them, but I'm trying to live a different life now I've gotten plenty of money from doing what I did, now I just wanna enjoy life and live. "But alas your right the truth to an extrent has to be out there..cause if everything';s in the dark noting like what happened to Tamara can come to light." He sighed they both had points.

Ariana sipped at her soda and nodded in agreement. No matter what they chose to do, it would not be a black and white choice: there was too much uncertainty and grey area between the Empowered and the storm. So all she could do was follow her heart. It was something out of a classic story with the journalists fighting for the hard proof. She sighed happily--despite it all, she was feeling pretty cool. "Yeah... Well. What are you thinking you'll do then? What are you in school for again?" she asked curiously.

Luke was just happy to be relaxing and enjoying life for once in the past few weeks, well he'd have plenty of fun so far but now he just needed to chill, he was just so worried about Tamara. "I'll just work on openig up my own business, I mean me and Tamara....had always talked about going to law school, a law business would be dope, but I've been interested in entertainment bsiness as well, but I'm in school for communication."

The rest of the lunch date went rather smooth with Luke and Arianna, and overall he was glad to have one of his former friends back in his life who understood his powers. Later that day he'd heard the news that Tamara had been sprung from jail or rather kidnapped, although some sources didn't believe it. It was a whole mess that Tamara, Jace, and Devon had gotten into the past year, the Williams Family was messed up and Luke just wanted to help them.

Harry Creed - Atlanta, Georgia - Second Chances

The past few days hadn't been the best for Harry. The situation had continued to escalate, to the point the President had spoke last night about the incident at the hospital in Atlanta. It was clear to most of the country that people with superhuman abilities existed or that where was a high possibility they did. There was nothing else that could possibly explain what happened yesterday besides perhaps some highly advanced experimental technology, and even then with everything else on the news that was highly unlikely.

"Fuck.."Harry was looking over all the information he had, several Coalition agents including Zach Colch had died. The superhuman Jace Williams was working with the CIA, and they'd retrieved the information. He'd ordered the assassination of Cori, and they'd failed thanks to his interference.

The Coalition had decided it was high time they started kicking things into high gear, the whole world was on the verge of knowing about them, and soon they'd be going at it with the CIA. His phone ringing again and he answered." Hello...listen."

"No you listen here Agent Creed, so far you haven't been doing the best needless to say the situation isn't going well. We can't allow things to get any further with the "Empowered" situation" His superiors were upset that things had gotten so far that the media was starting to label these people. "Were issuing a Code Red, we're bringing the rest of our re-engineered Vamon tech back into circulation, we're going to need to be a step above the competition especially now that they know we exist."

"Your kidding me after what we did giving people around the world powers, your bringing that fucking alien tech back? We need to round up the Empowered, eliminate the unstable ones, and get back to building the army..we have no idea about the true extent about what half that tech can do we."

"Then we need to know! Your the one who wanted to rely on superhuman soldiers rather then this. This technology is gonna give us the edge, the CIA is one thing, soon what if we have to compete with Chinese Governments, Russian Governments, we start using the tech what we know, we learn more, and we use what we don't know any more, also that one machine..we're putting together our operation in Miami, Experiment G is going back online we need that weapon more then ever."

"Not Experiment G.." Harry's voice sounded grave with distraught." You know what even the Vamons said about that, listen."

"No you listen here, you don't want any alien tech then fine you risk dealing with super humans, and the entire U.S Government on your own, the rest of the organization is going to stay around, Experiment G won't be up and running for about a month or two, you know damn well I do't want that, but it's the only other super weapon we have besides the Gene Accelerator..and after the Storm we can't use if we want, if you can deal with this Empowered situation in that time line maybe we can fix this, but right now the Vamons are the least of our problems, there won't be an earth to defend if things keep going like they are now you have your mission."

The conversation was dead, and Harry sighed things were bad. Giving people powers was one thing, but if they completed Experiment G, hell the Vamons who'd taken the technology were branded traitors by their own species. The violent imperialistic alien savages themselves didn't want that weapon to be used, and now The coalition wanted to handle it. He'd put a stop to that, but something had to be done about the Empowered. Which lead him to his current location outside of Sera's apartment he sighed. He knew who she was, an ex CIA agent coerced to come work for them for one final mission but he had some information about her he thought he could use to his advantage. He knocked on the door and awaited her answer something had to happen, he had to fix this before things got worst, before Experiment G became a reality.

Empowered!!! (Closed)!

@chukklehed Alright, great character. Approved

Jace Williams - Atlanta, Georgia - Shit gets Real

Jace was enjoying the latest development in Scandal. Personally he was a big fan of President Fitz, and Olivia's relationship, it was never a dull moment in the show.

"Damn this shit like crack." Jace decided to leave Netflix, he was done binge-watching the series, and in the mood for some food. He didn't want to go out and buy food not here not with his face all over the news. So he decided to get to cooking, and ended up cooking up some lemon pepper wings while listening to J. Cole, Kendrick Lamar, and 2Pac. He was in the mood for some lyrical stuff to really make him think and evaluate everything that was going on his life.

"Damn Devon..I wish you could see me now bruh..the way I'm living, the shit I can do, I swear we'd be running shit, man, fucking kingpins." He didn't have what it took to be a major drug dealer himself, nor did he want that lifestyle but he'd help his brother get whatever he wanted if he was still around. Still he ended up going inside to turn on the news when he saw a caption that caused him to raise an eyebrow. "The Super Thug's Girlfriend makes an announcement."

He watched the video Jane put together with shock. "Damn she's hot... I mean..fuck..though..she's fucking crazy..holy shit." Jace couldn't believe he watched the people screaming and burning then exploding. He wondered what kind of power she had to do something, the people were literally cooked alive. Perhaps some type of power over the temperature or fire either way she was dangerous and she wanted to meet him. Despite how attractive he found her, partially because of the Harley Quinn costume, he was pissed that this ...fan of his was killing people to get his attention.

Then he paused maybe this was a sign a chance for redemption, this was what he needed to do. If this girl's infatuation with his crimes was leading her to kill for attention then perhaps he needed to find her and stop her. He had no gripes with killing Officer Lauren, his probation officer, Ebony, and a slew of drug dealers and police officers. Although he did regret it..he felt he was somewhat justified all of them were awful people in their own right, the fact that he let the judge live wasn't just because of his guilt but because he couldn't really justify killing the man for simply doing his job.

"If I made this bitch I gotta slay her..at least if I can before Monday if not then fuck it the city's on it's own not like Atlanta's eve done shit for me." Really he honestly didn't know how he would track this woman down, and he wondered if she believed the rumors that Jace Williams was associated with the "Super Thug". "Fuck it." Just as he was about to turn the news on he saw something even worst then the situation with this sociopathic killer his sister getting booked for the murder of 20+ innocent people in a mass shooting." Tamara no!"

"NO!!!" He was trying to figure this out it didn't make any sense, his whole world was turned upside down. He didn't believe Tamara did it, and he wasn't going to allow the police to just handle his sister like this. Something had to be going on, then a thought flashed in his head. During his fight with Luke yesterday, his power had allowed him to mess with his head. Luke wouldn't do anything to her I mean..damn it...damn it!

Jace suddenly forget about going after Jane, fuck Atlanta, fuck all of Georgia, fuck the United States. He'd already lost one brother to violence and another to the legal system, he was getting Tamara out of jail by force, and they could leave today for all he cared but the police weren't going to take his life apart anymore. He raced down the steps to his car, and pulled out the parking lot in a rage he had to get to the precinct and get Tamara out.

Hector Ramirez - Atlanta, Georgia - The Alcoholic's Humble Abode

"aah this is the shit" Hector cracked open another can of bud light and started downing the contents. It was the morning and he was already on his fifth beer, he liked to start off the day a little heavy, then ease into it then really start drinking at night. It was a perfect routine, he was watching Olympus has fallen, with some light jazz music playing in the back-ground.

At first he was depressed when Evi left him, both of his daughters were dead, and he took full responsibility. He always tended to wonder what would happen had he acted differently, if he hadn't been an alcoholic. He thought about everything he'd learned in Alcoholics Anonymous, everything he could have done had he lived differently.

Still nothing would have prepared him for the last three weeks. He thought his years of drinking were starting to catch up to him. It started with painful head ache's and brief flashes of lights which evolved into images accompanied with voices. He found the more he drank the easier they were to deal with.

He'd been to the doctor, and they suggested he see a therapist. But then it got worst, or rather better. He would have visions of sorts of various things, sometimes related to him, sometimes to other people. He had no idea what they meant but over the weeks he was beginning to find out, at first he was in disbelief it was impossible for anyone to see the future. But he'd come to accept that reality, and learn it wasn't anything to do with alcohol delirium.

He was also coming to the terms with the facts that he had to do something about his visions if they were real. The first thing he did was he ended up making the news when he found and rescued two girls who'd been kidnapped two years ago by a vicious predator. He'd broken into the man's house, assaulted him, and freed the girls. He made the papers as a local hero, and for the first time in a long time he had a celebratory feeling as he downed his fifth of Vodka. It had given him a rush, a feeling of happiness he hadn't had in a long time. Still other then that no other visions had come that really made sense until one. It was so graphic and so tragic he had to act on it, even if he felt disgusted.

Which brought him to the present as he was cracking up another beer." Alright..you sure you don't want a drink, I mean after the shit you've been through." He inquired as he sipped some of his beer.

A woman could be seen with a solemn look on her face, and shaking as if life itself had frightened her. "N..not beer I don't drink that I want something strong..really strong."

"Alright Andrea, you deserve it if anybody, after the shit that happened to you." Harry put down his beer and got up going to his fridge to retrieve his bottle of Ciroc. He poured up a heavy cup before filling it with lemonade and cheer coke and bringing it to her. She instantly accepted the cup and downed a good portion of it as if the elixir of life.

"Thank you...thank you so much Hector..I ..thank you" Andrea barely had any words to say, today she was talking more then she had in a while since he got her, he couldn't believe what he did, but now he knew he couldn't ignore another vision.

Harry was driving the opposite way. He couldn't believe he stopped his drinking to go out to an old graveyard this was crazy. Sure his visions were true, but perhaps this was one wasn't. He was fighting the urge to go home and have some more Captain Morgan when he decided fuck it if a person was in this predicament he had to help them. He went to his trunk popped the shovel, and got to digging. It wasn't long until he came across fresh dirt, and opening the coffin he found a woman gasping for breath, covered in insects, and literal shit. She screamed for help, and almost attacked Hector yelling "JACE PLEASE JACE PLEASE!!!!" Finally he calmed her down, and got her out of the grave.

He didn't even bother to re-bury it Andrea was shaking with fear thinking that this Jace guy was watching or that he might come back. Hector was inclined to put a few bullets into his brain any man that could do that to someone, but she claimed that bullets didn't work on this man. ""Don't worry let's go..come to my house I'll get you cleaned up."

"You don't gotta thank me, if this bastard is the one that's out here killing police officers, and whoever else then he needs to be stopped. Fuck it if bullets, blades, and fists can't stop him, there's gotta be something that can right? ."

"I..I..need to go forward, talk to the cops, tell them..I..I.'m alive he killed my husband, he killed Laren, her husband, the kid, her neighbor April..so many others.." Andrea was about to burst into tears. Everyday she was crying, she didn't want to drink but at this point he felt a intoxication was better for her.

"NO! That's wrong, if this guy is as strong as you said he is, and wants to get "revenge" for the law putting him in his place, that's the last thing you need to do, next time he'll finish the job. He buried you alive, listen Jace Williams right, I can't say I've ever come up against a bullet proof man, but like I said I've got a power of my own I.."

"A power?! You can see the future, what's that gonna do against him, if you go up against him you won't have a future to see! Hector...if anyone should go it's me..I have nothing left, the world has to know who this fucker is, he took EVERYTHING from me" She was speaking mroe confidentally with the liqour in her system and she downed some more of the mixed Ciroc beverage as she started to cry." He took everything, he's a monster..."

Hector sighed he was trying to put on a brave act, but he'd seen the violent footage on TV. "Look we'll find a way to stop him let's just..do something else fuck Andrea I need a drink myself." Hector sighed it had been a long time since he had a woman in the houes and he wished it was under better circumstances. He decided to turn on the news where they were talking about the destruction of the hospital, he didn't enjoy watching the news any more but Andrea insisted. Ever since her encounter with Jace she was obsessed with keeping up with the current events about super-humans.

He made his way into the kitchen and got the Ciroc chugging out of the bottle then grimacing then making his own mixed drink albeit much stronger then the one he served Andrea. "Holy SHIT!!! HECTOR!"

Hector came rushing into the kitchen wondering what Andrea had seen and saw the headlines." Super Thug's girlfriend speaks." He settled down on the couch vodka drink in his left hand beer in his right and he ended up drinking both at the same time as he watched the disturbing video...and just took the remote turning off the TV. "Stop..I can't watch this shit...I can't...damn it... damn it I have visions about other stuff..but not them...if I knew how to force these visions I could find these motherfuckers before this stuff happened, before they did this stuff to people...there so powerful...yet I can't control my shit..fuck......" Trutfully seeing Heather die reminded him of his own daughter and her tragic event and tears began to come down his eyes." THese people are monsters." Hector just wanted them to be stopped, someone had to do something about them. What Andrea had went through was horrific, and he was upset to think he almost didn't intervene.

This time it was Andrea who reached out to Hector putting a hand on his shoulder." Y..Y..You can, all of you people aren't bad, your good Hector, you can get better, and even if you can't stop them..there's bound to be more of these people with powers who aren't fucked in the head, someone like you, you can find them, stop Jace, stop this fucking bitch, stop all of them, show the world..that some of you can do good..trust me..it dosen't matter what anyone thinks Hector...I know what you've told me your story, but none of that matters, if it wasn't for you I'd have died of starvation in a coffin covered in shit and bugs...there's no words that I can ever say to show the full extent of my gratitude, your a hero to me....some how we can figure this shit out..somehow." Andrea couldn't believe she was the one talking now, alcohol was a hell of a drug and she needed a-lot of it after what Jace did to her to function.
