"You do realize I haven't even called you that recently, right? Neither of us can read minds, so if you don't want me to call you Gwarguy, then give me something else to call you by. And I'm not the one who breaks random stuff instead of trying to use it, idiot." I didn't want to travel with someone I didn't get along with so I'd have try try to solve this somehow, but right then I was too ticked off at his antics to care about being best buddies for life.

"This car's more maneuverable. It's not like they told their buddies what the car looks like. Besides, if their friends check up on it, we're in trouble." I looked over at Axeka. "We should probably find out where they went, just to make sure they're not coming back."

HellHoundWoof and DragonBud: you are now welcome to come to the OOC and claim your characters. What remains is a male knight and a male archer, as their original owners have been offline. I'll let you decide amongst yourselves who gets who.

Sir yes sir!

"Yes ma'am." I twisted my neck around to look at the hovercar's third occupant. "Well, someone's Captain Obvious's habitually destructive sidekick. Any other characteristics we should know about?" This Gwarguy was starting to bug me, and I didn't even know his name yet. I edged the hovercar back over the cliff and to the road, thankful for the awesome hover feature that all but silenced the engine; I never really understood how you could say "all but" and mean the exact opposite, but whatever, that was how it worked, 'cause, you know, GRAMMAR.

Anyway, the truck was stopped, but there was no one around it. I slowly floated over to it, keeping an eye on the back doors.

And a slightly more advanced version of 2021.

Like I said, he's good with vehicles and he was checking the thing out before they even set off. And he really only used two things, the regular carlike controls and the hover controls.

Experiments

Posted. A little short, but whatever.

And the confusion has begun.

Experiments

Things heated up quickly. I tried to keep track of everything that was going on, but I couldn't. I only know that I heard a gun go off, some swearing, and lots of shouting.

I did what I was told and huddled in the center of the now quickly spreading group, all the while trying to make myself as angry as I could. Your mother doesn't love you. What mother? You're useless. I already knew that. They'll leave you behind and you'll never find out why you feel so alone.

This one sparked something inside me and I felt a switch flip. I saw the red behind my eyes again and felt all my muscles tense. When it cleared away, I was, um...well, uh, "transformed". You know. Right. It really felt strange, and I wondered how the scientists could do something like temporarily change someone's gender...

I got up and punched a nearby guard, screaming in my head as I did so "I'm sorry!!!!" I turned and gave Blade a thumbs-up, grinning. "So who do I hit?"

"No dur!" I swerved to the side in an attempt to avoid their ramming, but they only followed after the hovercar. I glanced at the truck out of the corner of my eye, assessing it, and made a split second decision. I slammed on the brake.

The car came to a sudden and violent halt, the assault truck flew past. After a moment it began slowing down to pull a u-turn, but was too heavy to do it quickly, so while they were trying to find us again I moved the car as fast as I could back over to the cliff, where I edged it off and lowered the hover capability for a moment. Soon, we were floating just below the precipice, out of sight of the road.

Keeping an eye on the various gauges, I leaned back in the driver's seat. "You're welcome."
