IC:
It was the fourth night of the new year of study at Darwin City University, alomost everyone was asleep, that is everyone it would seem, except for the Dean.

Professor Hugo Osborne looked at the man in front of him. Bane Blonsky was sweating heavily, and was the campus chief of security, as well the man who was the face of the operation.

'Professor Connors has being sniffing around,' Blonsky told his superior, 'He's being seen around by my staff after hours for over a week now.'

Osborne nodded, Connors was indeed becoming a thorn in his side.

'Deal with him. make it look like an accident...No, make him vanish completely.'

Blonsky nodded and left the office, and began to make his way to Connor's Lab, grinning viscously as he saw that the labs light was turned on.

'Oh I'm going to enjoy this...' He undid his shirt and removed his gloves, revealing an extremely muscular upper body.

His face scrunched up, and his muscles began tense up and gain mass. His skin began to spout scales and soon Blonsky had become a towering giant, a cross between A reptile and human.

Grinning viscously through sharp teeth, he kicked the door open and stepped in.
 
I was out stretching my legs when I heard a noise, dissimilar to a door being kicked down.

I was used to randomly patrolling the place back home, and upon coming to the large university, I found myself bored.

And thus the late night walks.

But the noise made me think otherwise, and without realising I cast the appearance spell...My Face vanished, My hair turned black, and I grew 5 inches.

A tingling in my fingers, meant i'd leave no prints.

I began to run towards where i'd heard the sound, glad to be weaing a simply black hoodie, as well as normal tracksuit pants.

I got to a door I remembered belonging to Prof Connors, and, not risking the door, phased through the wall of his lab.

The sight i saw, shocked me. A giant lizard human thingy was stood over the body of Connors, who looked unconscious but not dead, as i see his chest rising.

I step into the light.

'Hey, Scaley, Wanna Dance?' I yell, grabbing and throwing a large textbook at the figure.

He suddenly turned round and began to run at me, fligning tables out of his way as if they were paper.

'Oh shit,' I mutter and run out through the wall, thinking that maybe i'd be able to stop him.

A crash behind me....he must have run straight through the wall...shit...okay, I've gtta distract him till Connors escapes at least, and security...no the cops...fuck them, the army get here to stop this dude.

Suddenly i trip and the next thing i know is that a huge fist is flying for me, and instantly i phase and jump up, deciding that i needed my fighting pole....or something like it.

I quickly begin to head towards where the javellins are kept, the monster right behind me.
 
The albino gamer was passing in and out of consciousness pretending to still be focused on his game of World of Warcraft but really he was just on autopilot and well, hotkeys and muscle memory can accomplish. . .enough to feign consciousness if not attentiveness. A collection of crashes and shouts though snapped him to attention. That much noise would have woke the dead and was enough to bring Jimmy to the window casually chugging his Bawls Energy Drink.

"Doc's up a little late." Jimmy mumbled but it was Connors, and while the noise was loud there were no alarms going off, so whatever was going on was obviously well in hand. Jimmy yawned and started to turn when he saw something huge and green dash across the window which was enough to peak his interest, besids he had a tingle in his skull that suggested things might not be in control so he climbed out of the window and down the fire escape getting close enough to see inside.

He couldn't see Connors from his vantage outside the door but he could see two people he didn't recognize fighting. Instict said that somebody big chasing somebody small was probably the aggressor but this was a one on one fight so far and Jimmy didn't actually know who had started it, nor was he sure he could restrain both of them without. . .well at all without killing or both so he just observed for the moment.
 
Pale pink lips pressed together in a thin line of displeasure. Jubes heard the commotion and sighed. She was most definitely going to miss out on that night's fight. Grumbling to herself and tossing her hair, she climbed the fence and made her way towards where the rukus originated.
 
Charlie was sorely wishing he had stopped in tonight....well part of him was, the other part was thinking that'd at least hopefully saved the prof's like.

He finally reach the sports shed and ran inside looking for a pole. Unfortunalty while he did this, he was solid, and so when the large lizard man crashed through the door, He was sent flying.

Luckily, though, he quickly phased, missing being impaled by a javelin and grabbed a pole, and began to swing it around viscously.

'Lets Dance.'
 
William Parker was enjoying a break from having anything to do. He had managed to swing some decent scholarships and grants, and was being alloted a weekly stipend from the trust fund set up in his name after his adoptive parents had died, but there a lot more incidental expenses involved in going to college than he had expected. He had solved the problem with a work-study in the library, but that meant having a night free from both schoolwork and job was something he really like to savor.

He had decided to swing by the Union and see what might be going on, and was using a shortcut across the campus when he thought he saw a figure run out of the wall of one of the buildings. William was thinking he was seeing things when the wall burst and a large man-lizard thing came out in pursuit of the figure.

A quick glance about told him that anyone looking would have to be several hundred feet away, so William called forth the power of the talisman he wore around his neck. The pendant flashed with a light like that of flaming spark. The glow enveloped him and left him hovering in the air inside a winged suit of golden armor.

Phoenix took to the air and began following the two beings.
 
Tonight had been busy. Simon had just finished preparing for his two lab practicals tomorrow when he heard about the accident on the highway. Putting his books away in a jiffy, Simon grabbed his 'costume' bag from his room and changed into the red hoodie and reflective sunglasses on the way to the five car pile up. He spent half the night ripping cars open and pulling people out for the paramedics to stabilize and running the worst cases to the nearest hospital.

To say the least he was ready for bed when he came running back on campus in the middle of the night. He was taking a shortcut through the athletic field when he spotted the giant green monster and the man with no face. Simon could see the damage the two of them had caused so he ran up between them and stopped, facing them both.

"I don't know what this is about but it ends now before someone gets hurt."
 
"Boys boys....can't you play nice? Or at the least quietly?" Jubes asked as she darted up to them, her hands on her jean covered hips. "I mean honestly, you two are going to draw attention that I don't think anyone of us needs." She gave an exasperated sigh and shook her head. Now which one would her powers affect the most? Tall, green, and gruesome or the guy who looked somewhat normal? She circled both as she tried to decide who exactly to use her pafs on.
 
Revan was just starting to grow tired as he stared at the microwave, willing his Macaroni cheese to cook faster, not that it did any good, if he were willing it to flow at someone and explode I their face he wouldn’t have had a problem then, he was actually rather good at that.

"what’s taking you so looooooong?" he asked the microwave "we're hungry noooow!" he shouted as he hit the side of the microwave, a shockwave running through the building when he did, alarming him as much as it did anyone else "was that... me?" he asked as he went to his window, glancing out at the beast running away from what used to be the ground floor wall "oh, thank Christ, I got scared for a second there"

He quickly went to his room and pulled on the black hoodie and purple long coat before heading back to the kitchen window and getting ready to jump out, only the microwave beeped just as he was getting ready. he looked from the fleeing people to the food and back again "eh, what the hell" he grabbed a fork and pulled the macaroni from the microwave, then just faded away in to shadow, reappearing just a few meters away from all the commotion.
 
Charlie suddenly paused, surprised as all these people began to appear.

'You people had better run along now, This guy means business, and someone needs to get Prof Connors to safety...I think big green here was gonna kill him.

'Let someone who can handle this do it, like me...'

As if to prove his point, Big Green swung a fist at red hoodie, sending him stumbling. Then he went to hit the girl, but instead, I whacked his hand with the pole, then ran straight at him, phasing through and appearing behind him.

'Behind you Dumbo!'
 
"So definitely tall, green, and gruesome. Works for me." She dodged the attack and let loose a sonic paf at the green guy. "I think I can handle him just fine thanks. I'm not some helpless little girl who needs saving."
 
Stephanie had just finished her cheer practice and was on her way to the dorm, that was until she heard some commotion coming from around the corner. She smiled, "Looks like its time to 'play'" she said before closing her eyes and tranforming into her alter ego Amazing girl.

Quickly she gathered enough energy to fly up in the air to see what was going on.

The last thing she heard before reacting was another girl, "So definitely tall, green, and gruesome. Works for me."

As Amazing girl landed, she smiled, "Mind if I join?"
 
Jimmy watched as the commotion gathered more and more people, and the green guy was positively IDed as the aggressor, not that it mattered with the numbers surrounding him at that point. Actually it did matter, they were starting to gang up on him. They had no intention of fighting with honor, that first guy seemed to have things under control but the girls seemed to be jumping in.

It was tempting just to go back to his room and get some sleep. It was probably the best choice he could make since if that burning sensation just beneath his scalp came out he couldn't gaurantee that he wouldn't be fighting against both sides despite knowing who the real bad guy was.

He was about to turn and walk away but he'd heard something about Professor Connors, he didn't know the man personally but he was a legend on campus. Not that Jimmy new enough about first aid to be of any good. Still could call 911. "Everybody that knows first aid come here NOW!" He roared as he started back towards the building where the fighting had started. He knew from his Boy Scout days that he should have told just one of them to come but he didn't know any of them and that wouldn't help if he picked wrong. Even if two of them knew First Aid the second would see the first start to leave and probably not come so if he was lucky he'd get help but he was probably going to be on the phone and alone.

He found Connors unconscious and on twisted, head down, legs splayed against the wall. He'd been flung against the wall which explained the cracks over his contorted body. "That can't be good for his back." Jimmy said with a cringe. Another of his Boy Scout flashes was that he shouldn't move him, he could break his neck. He'd need to wait for help so someone could support his head while he moved his body. "I know first aid? Hmmm, I will have to mark this down under stuff I thought I'd forgotten (or my writer forgot he remembered.) I wonder if I can still tie a square knot." Dr. Connors was still breathing though that was important and he wasn't bleeding, not that Jimmy could see anyway. "911."

He left the Professor and scrambled through the office opening and shutting drawers until he found what he was looking for, a wireless phone and he dialed 9-1-1 and started explaining the situation as calmly as he could manage.
 
It had not been hard to catch up with the pair. William stayed hovering in the night sky, trying to assess what was going on. It was obvious the reptilian man was the aggressor in the battle, but what they fought about and who was in the wrong was not so readily apparent.

The faceless man had armed himself and turned to engage his foe when a number of other people had emerged, as William himself had, to see what was going on and to lend a hand, if need be.

One hit and one miss from the larger figure told William who seemed to be the one to side with, but the mysterious stranger with the pole was handling things. He decided to remain airborne and hold off in attacking anyone, but he let his glow spread out to illuminate the battle scene below and, perhaps, signal to campus security that something was amiss--and where.
 
Charlie was momentarily baffled by the people who werre suddenly appearing around them.

But a moment wall all Big Green had needed as he grabbed the pole and threw it, Charlie still hanging on, over 250 metres away as if it had being a cocktail stick.

Charlie, luckily, had the sense to begin to phase before hitting the first wall, and thus contiuned being proppelled, until he came to a stop over 400 metres away, in Doc Conners lab, where he fell to the floor dazed next to the unconscious doc, and some other wierd dude.

Back outside, Big Green Spun and caught the paf girl with a back hand, throwing her into the other girl, before leaping at the other ground based one who seemed to be eating macaroni.
 
"HOLY SHIT!!!!" Jimmy gasped practically doing a back flip as he scrambled away from the invader. Even when you can pass through solid objects at will it doesn't make it any less startling when somebody passes through the walls at sixty miles per hour like a ghost rocket. A deep breath and he realized this was the guy from outside, maybe he hadn't been as in control of the fight as he'd originally believed.

"Hello-hello? Are you still there?" Came a mousy voice and for a moment Jimmy was still then he remembered the emergency operator and he finished explaining the situation to her.

"Who ever you are I need some help here. Hold the Doc's head steady while I adjust his body, we need to lay him on his back, make sure his neck isn't broken but I can't move him alone or I might do more damage than was already done, and you can explain what's going on in a minute. I have to trust that you didn't do this to the Doc because there is nobody else right now!"
 
"AW, Fuck!" Amazing girl said as she was pushed into the other girl. "Sorry.." she apologized quickly before standing up. She could always use her power to take away the green guys powers...but that was too dangerous! She closed her eyes and gathered all the energy around her forming a bright pink ball. "Take this!" She yelled and threw it at big green.
 
Charlie, aching over every ounce of his body, merely nodded and did as he was told.

She yelled and threw it at big green.

The Blast merely bounced off Big Green, but he turned around once more and approached the girls quickly, swinging his fist as he did so.

OOC: He's basically UBER hulk lol, and you he is an NPC so you can write his actions...just don't KO him, I'll write when that happens.
 
Phoenix

The wait had not been long.

While William watched, the reptilian creature had seized the faceless man's weapon and slung him away from the battle. He pivoted in the air, and started in that direction but then William saw that the man had managed to phase himself through the wall he had been headed for.

Let's see what we can do to help the girls.

He saw how the pink energy ball bounced away, and when the man moved to attack, William dropped out of the sky between the couple. As he descended, he called forth a great golden spear--almost a pike or footman's lance--and used it to meet and deflect each of the fists aimed for the young woman.

"Easy with the hands, guy!" William said. He tried for a calming, humorous tone to help in defusing the situation, but each blow impacted hard against his weapon and William found himself using his flight to help remain both standing and immobile before the green giant.

He glanced back over his shoulder. "You have anything more powerful than that last forceball?"
 
That punch had hurt. Oh it hadn't knocked him out or caused any damage, but it was the first time since he got his powers that anything had moved Simon when he decided to stay put. He recovered faster then he seemed, but took a moment to see what happened next. Simon had never been in a super powered battle before and didn't really know what he was doing.

The girl fired a blast at him which was ineffectual, and the winged, armored guy seemed to have martial arts training, but neither of them had even staggered the reptile. So it was time for Simon to do his thing.

No one saw him move. He went from standing still to an all but invisible blur in a jiffy, running up to the Reptile and landing a series of blows to the thing's left leg. He wasn't hitting the thing as hard as he could, he was hitting it as fast as he could, repeatedly in the thigh. If he was a little smarter he would have taken out the thing's knee, but Simon was new at this.

The Reptile staggered and slumped to the left. Simon stopped and faced the girl and the winged man.

"I'm going to follow this path of destruction and get anyone hurt to the hospital. Keep this thing here for five minutes."

With that Simon took off heading to the lab at super speed.

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

OOC: Nitecrowe, can you play Simon for me tonight? RL has been crazy busy and I gotta run. Just have him interact with the guys in the lab, not reveal anything about himself, get Conners on a makeshift stretcher, maybe from a tabletop and run him to the hospital. Thanks!
 
Jimmy instructed the faceless guy quickly performed the basic first aid things, making certain that there were no broken bones, nothing he could feel immediately anyway, kept the head slightly elevated and twisted to one side encase he vomited or anything like that he wouldn't drown. He checked breathing and pupil dilation, he remembered that really big black eyes, like those poor kids from the optomitrist was bad, he forgot what it meant but knew it was important. Doc didn't have any particularly distressing signs though. "Okay quick version, I'm Jimmy, I'd ask who you are but instead I'll ask what you want me to call you instead of hey you or does Nameless work for you cus I remember that." Jimmy got to his feet, the urge to help was steadily growing but he wasn't sure why, he couldn't actually see what was going on over.

"The Doc is as good as he's going to be, you should probably stay with him until the EMT's get here, after all you saw more of what happened to him than I did. I don't think he's too fucked though, at worst a mild concussion, important part is he'll live.

He walked out through the hole the reptile had made before and watched as the heroes continued to dog pile on him, seemingly inneffectively. He started walking closer his eyes starting to turn red and his flesh turned an luminescent red, like a jack-o-lantern as the flames thratened to burst free but he fought them back down.
 
Charlie rose, and began to follow the kid, not even faltering when the dudes face and eyes suddenyl turned red.

'I can't be around when any officials turn up, he'll be okay like that, you can call me whatever you want i've never being asked that question before, and finally, how the hell did you do that?'

____________________________________________________

Simon, turned and sped off, running past two other figures, to the lab where he found Connors, then zoomed off with him to the hospital.
 
"The eyes?" Jimmy replied with a half grin. "Bullies just really piss me off." He exhaled steam then calmed down. "I should have known you weren't the type to talk to the fed Nameless. Can you give me a quick heads up on who that is and why hurt the Doc?"
 
On the scene. And I apologise for the power trip.

Jordan Banner was up late, but that in itself was nothing new. Since leaving the military he'd been sleeping less and less. The dreams were coming more frequently dreams of a giant unstoppable green monster growing inside him. Since then he'd been working in the Radiology lab. The rumour was that he had cancer, or so he had heard. Probably just side effect from all his hair falling out. Not that the brushcut had left much to fall out but the eyebrows were definitely noticeable. So he'd been wearing fake ones.

Still though for all the mistrials and dis-proven ideas, he was no closer to anything solid on gamma radiation. An expert in the field and all he could do was find the stuff.

"CRASH!!! From Doc Connors Lab. well that was nothing new. Just a undergrad dropping another cage. No-one took proper care of anything it seemed. Some girl wore a miniskirt a few labs ago and someone else spilled half a beaker of sulphuric acid over the counter. How much did that cost? And it was a miracle no one was hurt.

"GROWL!!!" "SMASH!!

Ok that might have been a little more pressing. Rushing towards the roof Jordan began silently mouthing the oath from his accident. True aliens had taught it to him while his plane exploded but the power it contained was more than enough to make up for it's weirdness. Green light coursed in the stairwell as Jordan Banner grew and transformed into the green Guardian. Mostly unknown but apparently gaining a small cult following along the city's underbelly.

Bursting out into the night Air and taking flight Jordan searched the sky and the ground for signs of nefarious plotting. Or just a giant gathering of people and monsters that had spilled out from the school and lab towards the football field. Swooping down from the sky in an emerald trail The 8 foot behemoth with a lantern on his chest imagined the skin tight field he always did to protect himself and began the simple but nerve racking test of separating all the combatants from each other, reaching out with his mind and the power of the ring, He picked everyone on the field up and held them immobile inches off the ground.

"Alright so who started this little brouhaha? Speak up now And I'll let you go." Normally he'd be able to keep people contained for hours if need be. This however was different. Unlike a group of gangbangers or a few idiot members of the trust fund brigade kicking a wino, these people were not human. And they were struggling, while they shouted. Jordan wasn't able to make out anyone's words as he fought to keep them all contained altering the fields to filter energy or keep phasing people from stepping through but it wasn't enough. And then there was the growl, the pure anger and hatred from the large reptile like creature in the far bubble. something told jordan that of all things this was the aggressor.

"Restrain" He thought a useful trick. The ring would simply drop anyone it needed perhaps toss them a small ways so that they fell first. Most would land differently or need time to recover, and this would allow tempers to cool. At worst with very hostiles the fall would stun them. The ring couldn't kill he'd discovered, very very close, and it could inflict some terrible injuries but it couldn't kill anything. Most of the assembled party simply fell, apparently some could fly or land well as the ring just dropped them, Unable to comply with his commands. Big green and scaley however flew into the air leaving a deafening crack as the speed of his ascent broke the sound barrier. As small green wave dissipated leaving no sonic boom however.

"Alright people, I just flung him at around 7800 meters per second. Or somewhere around 5 times the speed of sound. He's going up a quarter mile then down, and this concerns me because all I said was restrain, and that's terminal velocity. So we'll need more to stop this thing. Now he's gonna be angry, and he should be falling back down in twenty-nine more seconds. Ideas?"
