alright, here i go... ---------------------------------------------
the theif looked at Nightmare and said in what he thought to be an intimidating voice, "Why should I? You're just some punk kid."
Nightmare grinned, "Suit yourself." as he said this he began to transform into a giant demon and said telepathically in the man's head 'How about now?', he asked.
The man then threw the purse at the demon and ran off into the store screaming. Nightmare was going to give chase but decided that a giant demon running through the mall chasing a screaming man wouldn't exactly make him look like a good guy. So he transformed back and used some rune magik to throw the man into a wall and knock him unconscous. Then a security guard ran up to the unconscous theif and cuffed him.
"Idiot" he muttered as he picked up the purse and took it back to the lady.
As he made his way back to Hot Topic he was met with confused and scared stares from everyone in the mall, one person asked "Who are you?"
"Me?" Nightmare responded, "I'm a Titan." and with that Nightmare paid for his things and left.
---------------------------------------------- Hope I was able to keep Nightmare in character...

and finally we’re at the mall ------------------------------------
On the other side of the city........
Force, Zelda, Damn, and Kyle made their way down the street trying their best to ignore peoples stares.
“You’d think they’d never seen a penguin before.” Damn said,
“Maybe not one skipping down the street in California.” Force said as he notice Kyle’s skipping.
“Which store are we going anyway?” Zelda asked while trying her best to ignore Kyle.
“There,” Damn said as he pointed to a store entitled “Headbanger’s Mall”.
“That...has to be the most awsomest name I’ve ever heard.” Force said,
As they made their way inside they were greeted by a store clerk with long brown hair and a tie-dye shirt and baggy pants.
“Hey man, my name’s.” he paused to look at his name tag, “Dave, how may I help you?”
“We’re here looking for some clothes.” Damn said
“Right over there he said motion toward the left side of the store, but you little penguin friend may want to come with me because we don’t have many sizes that might fit him but I could find something in the back.” Dave said.
“...um ok” Damn said, “You want to Kyle?”
“Sqeak sqeak” Kyle replied,
“Right this way little dude,” Dave said as Kyle followed him,
In the distance you could see Kyle sqeaking to Dave, and Dave actually responded with “That sounds fascinating.”
Zelda looked dumbfounded and Force was laughing while Damn just grinned, “Well, looks like I’ll be coming here more often.” Damn said.
They made their way over to the clothing section and started to gather what they wanted.
Force searched around till he found what he was looking for, which was basically a section with mostly blue and green clothes. He got some blue jeans and a couple of military green cargo pants, and then proceeded to the t-shirt section which mostly consisted of band shirts so he got a couple of Breaking Benjamin t-shirts, some Smile Empty Soul t-shirts and finally some Papa Roach t-shirts.
“These should last for a while, ” He said, “At least until we get into a battle.”
’Hmm...‘, Force thought, ’I wonder if we’ll be getting uniforms...‘
After he had gotten all the clothes he wanted he made his way over to Damn who had an arm full of mostly black clothing.
“Whatcha got there?” Force asked,
“See for youself.” Damn responded as he put the clothes he had found on a table and continued searched through a rack of clothes.
Force looked through the pile and noticed about five pairs of black cargo pants and black t-shirts. The t-shirts were mostly band shirts which consisted of Korn, Mudvayne, Slipknot, Mushroomhead, and Godsmack. But then something caught his eye, something he’d never thought he’d see again.
“..Is..is this a Johnny the Homicidal Maniac t-shirt?” Force asked shakily, as he held up a black t-shirt with the image of a skinny boy holding two knives with the statement ‘Don’t Call Me Wacky...’ on the bottom.
“Yeah,” Damn responded, “They’ve got a whole rack dedicated to everyone's favorite homicidal maniac. This place is freaking awsome.”
Force continued to search through the pile where he found three more JtHM t-shirts, one had a picture of a demented looking smiley face with “Smile You Fucker” under it, and another had the ‘Z?’ symbol on it.
“Well I think I’ve found all I want right now.” Damn said, “Lets go find Zelda and get something to eat.”
As he said this Zelda walked up with a pile of clothes that consisted of Fall Outboy, My Chemical Romance, Senses Fail, System of a down, Dashboard Confessional, a few other band t-shirts, and some black flared denim pants.
“Well I’m ready” Zelda said, “How about you?”
“Yeah, let’s go find Kyle and pay for out stuff.” Damn said walking off.
When they made it to the check out line Kyle was already there and appeared to be carrying on an in-depth conversation with Dave.
“Hey Kyle, did ya find anything?” Damn asked.
Kyle responded by holding up three freshly made t-shirts. One said ‘And I go weeee!!!!’, the second said ‘Keep staring I might do a trick...’, and the third said ‘Slide’.
Force couldn’t help but start to laugh at the t-shirts Kyle had made. And Zelda tried to hold back a small smirk but failed.
'I've got to admit, that is kinda funny...' She thought.
“Well I see you’re ready to check out.” Dave said, “Right this way.”
After they paid they said goodbye to Dave and left. --------------------------------------------- Well, there ya go...

Time to go to Marty's for a wideburger.... -------------------------------------------------------------------
When they got outside Damn said, “Ok, who’s hungry?”
“Me.” Force said, “Yeah me too.” Zelda said, “How ‘bout you Kyle?” Force asked, “Squeak” responded Kyle.
“Well, it’s unanimous.” Damn said, “We’re going to Marty’s” “Huh?” Zelda said, Force just pointed across the street to a fast food place named Marty’s. “Oh” Zelda said.
They made their way inside and up to the cashier where Damn ordered.
“Hi, how may I take your order?” the cashier asked,
“I’ll have two wideburgers with everything, one wideburger with no pickles, and a slice of apple pie..” Damn said,
“Wait,”Zelda said “How did you?” She stopped when Damn tapped his temple and grinned.
“Thank you, have a seat and your order will be right out to you.” the cashier said,
They went and sat at a table with four chairs and waited for their order.
“Squeak”, Kyle said and walked off to the bathroom.
While Kyle was in the bathroom their food arrived and as soon they started to eat they were interrupted as the door to the restaurant was slung open revealing two masked men one of which had a gun.
“Alright,” The first robber yelled, “This is a robbery, no body move and no one will get hurt.”
Zelda’s body began to give off a slight energy current as she prepared to fight.
“Wait.” Damn said, “What do you mean wait?” Zelda whispered, “The guy has a gun, we...” “It’s not real.” Damn interrupted “How do you know that?” Zelda whispered, calming down a little. “I’m psychic remember?” Damn said. “I thought you needed eye contact for something like that.” Zelda said. “Not when the guy with the gun has the same ’I hope no one realizes this gun is fake.‘ running through his head a mile a minute.” Damn responded. “Now let’s just sit tight and wait for the right moment.”
As Damn said this Kyle came out of the bathroom and noticed the robbers the same time they noticed him.
“Uh, I think the ‘right moment’ may be coming up pretty soon.” Force said as he noticed what was happening.
“What the hell is that?” the first robber said, “I believe it’s a penguin.” the gunman said, “Oh really?” the robber said, “Well, get outta here.” As he said this he walked up and kicked Kyle across the room.
Force winced and Damns fists tightened, but then he got a grin on his face.
“Hey Zelda,” Damn said, “Have you ever seen a penguin lose it’s temper?” he asked, “No, why?” Zelda asked, “Just watch”, Damn said.
As he said this Kyle got back up and ran across the room and head butted the first robber in the shin causing him to keel over in pain, and as he leaned over he received a back flip kick to the jaw by Kyle.
By now Force was chuckling a little bit and Zelda watched wide-eyed as Kyle landed and moved into a combat stance while making the sound “Squaaaaaaaaaa”.
The gunman who was now totally freaked out took off out the door.
“Aw, man I hate it when they run.” Damn said, and he took off out the door.
On his way out he caught a glimpse of Force standing over the first robber and saying, “You just got knocked the fuck out! By an imaginary penguin bitch!” while Kyle was doing a victory slide causing Zelda to laugh.
Once outside Damn saw the gunman jump in a car and drive off. Damn responded to this by flying off after it. Once he got close enough to attack without having to worry about any collateral damage Damn used his powers to stop the car.
He walked up to the drivers side and yanked the driver out and used to car’s antenna to tie his hands behind his back.
When Damn got back to Marty’s the police were there and they had the first robber cuffed.
“Got one more for ya.” Damn said, walking up and tossing the gunman at the officer’s feet. “And if you don’t mind,” Force said, motioning toward their half eaten food. “We’d like this to go.”
As they got their food and were leaving one of the officers stopped them and asked. “Who are you kids anyway?”
“We’re Titans” Force said as they walked out.
‘For some strange reason I have a new found respect for that penguin.’ Zelda thought, ’I think I will apologize for earlier.‘
“Hey Kyle,” she said as she walked up next to him. “I just wanted to let you know I’m sorry about earlier but I just kind of got a little freaked out, what with a penguin coming out of nowhere and starting to dance around. To Korn of all things.” She said, “Squeak” Kyle said, and Damn grinned. “What’d he say?” Zelda asked “He said don’t worry about it.” Damn said. Zelda smiled “Alright, now that that’s out of the way. Wanna be friends Kyle?” she asked. “Squeak!” Kyle said as he started skipping down the street again. “He said..” Damn started “I know what he said,” Zelda cut him off. Force had a confused look on his face, “How?” he asked. Damn grinned, “Accepting Kyle is one thing, but only once you embrace the existence that is Kyle can you truly understand him.” he said. Force’s eyes widened, “She’s advanced that far already!” Force said, “Took me a few weeks.” “Guess some are just faster learners than others.” Zelda said. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Well, there ya go. This concludes the Kyle story arc. And on a side note, what are we going to do about Silcia? Her creator is no longer posting so I was just wondering what we were going to do about that. Keep her in, replace her with another character someone makes up, or just change the Titans' membership to 5. I personally don't care one way or the other. I'm just curious...

I was wondering the same thing. I guess someone could take her place if they wanted to and we could just send her out on a pizza-mission and never return... *grins and Mauser* Doesn't matter to me, either. Although then I'd be the only girl... But I guess it doesn't matter. But who else would want to join this thing now?

Post by Mauser on Aug 27, 2005 21:50:34 GMT -5
Yeah, as of now postitions for a 6th Titan are avaliable. You can just start writing for Silcia or you can replace her with your own character(Preferably a girl, no real reason but I think it'd be better balanced). And if no one offers I guess me and Jes can just co-create one.....
*laughs maniacly, coughs then continues*

Post by Blue Lantern on Aug 28, 2005 21:08:52 GMT -5
Somewhat of a shy person still, Blue Lantern strode through the mall food court alone, eating far more junk food than his trim exterior seemed accustomed to. Upon finishing his food, he walked with deliberate purpose to the Red Vs. Blue Store. Just enough time to make his purchase later, he walked out carrying his "off-duty" uniform. Basically black shorts or pants made of light, breathable and durable materials which he already had and armfulls of Caboose shirts he was planning to upgrade consisting of some of his score (-01) and his quote "I like me." And for situations requiring warmer attire, he grabbed several of the Sarge zip up hooded sweatshirts, ignoring the color.
On the way past a hat store, he grabbed a black leather hat like that in Indiana Jones with a different color and after paying with his Titans credit card, banished his purchases to the alternate dimension where the power core existed. Freshly clothed in a pair of his new clothes, he made his way back towards where the rest of the group was set to meet.
------------------------------------------- Someone start a fight scene and I'll reveal my on-duty uniform.

haha! you got it man, prepare for the mall to be taken over by cons, alot of cons. but remeber. when you kick their ass, MAKE IT FUNNY! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the Blue Lantern made his way to the double doors that led outside he was surprised to see six very heavily armed men coming through the double doors with various weapons.
"Alright, everyone get down. This is a hostage situation, just stay calm and everyone will get out of this okay!" Shouted their leader.
--------------------------------------------------------------- Yeah, I know, short. But it doesn't take much to start a fight scene. Just need someone with a gun. By the way, I didn't know how to fit it in but when I pictured those guns I was thinking about non-leathal weapons used for incapasatation(sp?). Not killing...

"Indeed, a calm mind is required." He told the robbers, planting himself square in the way.
"Move kid, you don't want to get hurt."
One lackey moved forward to haul this teenage troublemaker out of the way. Blue Lantern noticed and did a backflip landing in a fighting crouch.
"You would do well to not try the patience of the Blue Lantern."
"Ha, good one kid. The Blue Lantern is actually blue."
BL lifted his hat off of his head and handed it to a child in the croud.
"Oh, crap, the lackey said." "Shut up, he decided to try and look cool for his friends. Get him."
BL went back into his fighting stance and watched the lackey approach. Shifting slightly, he tossed the lackey into the rack of lingerie. (Twice in one trip to the mall? Who'da thunk that..)
He chose this time to solidify the truth he told them. He passed ritualisticly through the motions that aligned his chi, his new method for controlling the Lantern power. Two positions in, his garb began to change. By the time he completed, his eyes glowed far brighter than was normal. But the most noticeable change was that he was wearing all black now except the Blue Lantenr symbol on his chest. The flowing waist length cape he wore was blakc on the outside with a blue interior.his gloves matched the blue. (He looks like robin or also Ares in Absence of Light cept with different colors.) He went through one more motion and with his foot in the air slammed it down to the ground creating a blue shockwave that dissipated after a 6 foot radius. He returned to his fighting stance and waited for the thugs to make their move.
Through all this the thugs had been watching open-mouthed. Upon the compoletion of this obvious display of power, they all put their hands up in unison. He bound them with their own restraints and notified mall security. He went to grab his hat, but thought better and winked at the kid. Summoning a black sombrero with a metallic blue trim and a blue ribbon around the base with the ends dangling off the back. Placing this on his head with a lopsided grin, he strode out throught he mall doors still in full Lantern regalia to find the rest of the team.
________________________ In retrospect, I would like to point out that this sombrero is not a ridiculous looking one, but one that looks like zorro's in 'The Mask of Zorro'

The team stared as Blue Lantern walked through the doors to the food court where they were to meet up. He was in full uniform and had a sombrero on his head. Everyone stared as he took a seat next to them. they all remained quiet for a moment.
"Nice hat..." Force finally said.
"You have a problem with my sombrero?" Blue Lantern replied, narrowing his eyes.
"Uh, no." Force said while everyone shook their heads in aggrence.
"So, uh, where's Silcia?" Zelda asked, noticing the Titan that was missing.
"She got an important call right before I left. She said she'd meet us all here." Blue Lantern replied. "It sounded serious." The rest of the team shot glances at each-other, worrying for their teamate and friend.
Suddonly Silcia ran through the mall towards them, jumping over clothing racks that stood ashow outside stores and knocking down anybody that wouldn't move and was in her way. She looked worried, and held a backpack in her hands. Damn was the first one to notice her. As he looked up, the rest of the Titans followed his gaze and saw their teamate running towards them in a hurry.
She reached the table. "What's going on?" Zelda asked her.
"I.. have to go.." she said, catching her breath. "Troubles back home.. my family and friends really need me there right now. I'm so sorry..."
"So wait, you're leaving?" Damn asked.
"Yes. I'm really really sorry... It's just they really need me and I'm the only one who can help... It's a long story, but I promise I'll come back when it's all over... I'm so sorry."
"How far is your home?" Asked Nightmare.
"Far." she said. "To get there in the time I need to, I really need to take a plane. Of coarse I don't exactly have a jet, so I need to hurry. I'm sorry, again."
"Hey, it's alright." replied Blue Lantern. "Your family needs you. We understand."
"Yeah," everyone agreed.
Silcia said goodbye to everyone and gave Zelda a hug before she walked out.
"Good luck!" yelled Zelda as she watched her leave.
Everyone sat in silence for a moment before her leaving sank in. "So... You think she'll come back?" asked Zelda, quietly. "I'm the only girl here now."
Everyone shrugged and a minute later, they all decided to leave for home again.
- - -
And so Silcia is gone now. =[ But now our character can come in, right, Mauser? =] Woo!

Heh, that's riiight. And here we go. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- After everyone got back to the tower they all did their own thing. Damn was in the common room watching TV with Zelda and Force and Nightmare was in his room listening to his new CD’s while Blue Lantern was looking through the tower’s computer system updating it. And Kyle was off doing whatever penguins do...
“Huh, that’s funny...” Damn said
- - - - - - - - - -
Outside, on the fairy that would take people to the island Titan’s Tower was located, there was a girl who looked a little out of her element. Riding the fairy to the tower hoping to be accepted by a group of people that are supposed to be gifted like her.
“That’s weird,” she said, “I haven’t felt that for about a year...”
Alice was a girl with pyrokinetic powers which enabled her to control fire. But she wasn’t always like this, it all started about two years ago.
Her parents were scientists that were taking part in an experiment for the canadian military to develop a chemical agent that would have the ability to manipulate and alter fire. But in the process of testing and creating chemicals there was a chemical created that had many unknown properties. The chemical was called ‘Pyronium’ because of it’s various abilities involving fire. (And on a side note, the Pyronium is maroon colored.)
Another experiment being conducted for the canadian military was to create a group of psychic soldiers called ‘Mind Warpers’. Although Alice’s patents had nothing to do with this experiment they were killed when the most powerful M.W. went AWOL and killed mostly everyone he could come in contact with before fleeing when they tried to capture him.
Alice wasn’t killed but what happened changed her. During the attack she was exposed to high amounts of Pyronium (basically went swimming in the stuff.). She awoke in a military hospital with her grandparents. Although she wasn’t harmed by the chemicals her appearance was changed. Instead of having brown eyes and reddish brown hair. Her hair was now dark red, almost blood colored, and her eyes were maroon. But not only were some of her physical features changed but some of her molecular ones as well. Thanks to the Pyronium she had gained the ability to manipulate fire as if it was an extension of her body. She had also gained the ability to generate heat from her body, she couldn’t generate fire though. Another ability she acquired was the ability withstand extreme temperatures both hot and cold. Along with all of this her metabolism had also changed, it had accelerated to such an extreme degree that her body constantly works on over drive. The upside to this is that her body’s natural functions like her immune system and healing factor have been increased to such a high degree that she can overcome most illnesses and injuries with extreme ease. The down side (Although it’s not really that bad.) is that since her body is always on overdrive it uses energy very quickly, this causes her to have to put that energy back in as quickly as possible.
- - - - - - - - - -
“What?” Force asked. “Nothing...I..I just felt something...familiar...” Damn said, ”Hey, you remember that time we went to Canada? “Yeah,” Force responded, ”I like Canada...“ “I do too.” Damn said, “Yeah I know why you like it,” Force said with a grin. “Oh shut up.” Damn said.
- - - - - - - - - -
As Alice got off the fairly and lugged her duffle bag toward the tower.
‘I’ve got this really familiar feeling.’ Alice thought.
Almost a year after the accident Alice had learned how to control her powers and she carried around a zippo lighter with her where ever she went, just in case she needed to use her powers.
She had thought she had seen the last of the Mind Warper that killed her parents but she was wrong. He came back calling himself ‘Nostradamus’ and began wreaking havoc. The military thought they’d be able to defeat him with the other Mind Warpers that had been created since he left, but Nostradamus found a way to take control of them and make them work for him.
It was about this time that two meta-humans called Dark Mind and Force arrived. At first Alice didn’t trust Dark Mind because he was able to battle the Mind Warpers without the help of the neural inhibitors her grandparents had helped her make, this and the fact that his psychic powers were similar to that of the Mind Warpers made her think that he was evil. But when Nostradamus took control of Alice and began to use her powers to cause even more destruction, Dark Mind proved himself to be a ‘good guy’ by entering her mind and fighting off Nostradamus’ control over her.
At first he wasn’t able to do anything because Nostradamus had woven their minds so closely together that Dark Mind wasn’t able to do anything to Nostradamus without the chance of hurting Alice. So he did something he’d never done before, he pulled both Nostradamus and Alice inside of his mind and melded his mind with Alice’s so he would be able to defeat Nostradamus without hurting Alice. After an intense mental battle Nostradamus was reduced to a brain dead vegetable.
After all this Alice was changed yet again. Not only did she completely trust Dark Mind but she also had a mental connection with him so great that their minds were practically one. Along with this Alice developed minor psychic abilities that increased the closer she was to Dark Mind.
- - - - - - - - - -
Damn got up and walked toward the kitchen to get a drink and try to shake off this not-so-new feeling.
’It’s just my mind playing tricks on me.’ he thought, ’Nothing to worry about.’
- - - - - - - - - -
’It’s just my mind messing with me.’ Alice thought, ’Nothing to get upset about.’
After Dark Mind and Force left, Alice and her grandparents continued to research Alice’s abilities and discovered more about Pyronium and it’s capabilities. They were able to use the Pyronium to develop Alice’s gloves. Alice’s gloves are more than just gloves, they’re a way for her to further use her powers. They gave the gloves this ability by soaking them in Pyronium and later fusing three crystalized Pyronium gems onto the back of each glove. What the gloves actually do it allow Alice to create the fire she needs. See, when the Pyronium gems are exposed to the heat Alice creates they emit a small amount of fire. Not a lot, but all it takes is a just a little bit and Alice can manipulate it to any amount she wants. The first time they tried to make gloves like this the gems kept burning through the normal gloves, so they solved this problem by soaking the gloves in the Pyronium first, thus keeping the gems from burning through.
As time went on Alice grew restless and when she heard of a new superhero team starting in he U.S. Alice left her home and decided her superhero name would be Pyrah because of her powers.
Now here she was, two years since the accident and a year since the battle with Nostradamus, she’s sixteen and she’s trying to find her purpose and it just might have something to do with a giant ‘T’ shaped tower...
As Alice reached the tower the feeling got stronger but she ignored it. When she reached the doors leading into the tower she rang the door bell.
- - - - -
“I’ll get it,” Blue Lantern said as he walked out of the room.
A few minutes later Blue Lantern walked back in the room and a second pair of footsteps could be heard from behind him.
“Hey guys, check it out. We’ve got a new member, say hello to Pyrah!” Blue Lantern said as he entered the room.
Everyone turned to see a girl about their age carrying a large duffle bag walk into the common room. As she walked into the common room Damn returned from the kitchen.
“Damn?” Alice said, dropping her duffle bag “Alice?” Damn responded as Alice approached him.
*glomp!*
------------------------------------------------------------------------- Heh, I couldn't think of a better way to end this post. and I had to throw that thing about her finding her 'purpose' just for the sake of doing it. So what do ya think?

Oh don't start, you'd respond that way too if you ran back into someone who'd previously saved your life that you hadn't seen in almost a year.
Wow, for some reason when I say that out loud it sounds grammatically incorrect in some way but I can't figure out how...
