More Meteor Showers Bring Even Stranger Powers. (O/A)

[Natsa]

He blinked silently at the pair of keys in his hand, a sudden burning sensation causing the visible eye to lightly flinch. Gently he pulled the eyecover from his face to allow the disfigured eye to breath, with that he went to the door she had just left, his paranoia getting the better of him as he locked the doors behind Kerana. "Why do you sting so often recently?" The read head seem to question some invisible source as he released an aggravated sigh, the vision in his left eye naturally weakening the more he covered it, though he was practically blind with the event occured.

The eyebrows seemed to narrow at the thought of the slow pace this eye was taking to fully lose it's vision. Covering it purposely just for that reason, plus, he found the whole thing rather personal. Frowning for a moment he covered the almost visionless eye once more, and found his way to his bed. He didn't bother swapping his clothes, he was too exhausted, reaching the end of the bed he literally passed out, falling forward onto the comfortable space.

Deora smiled at Justine's answer. It looked like she had been wrong about this woman; she wasn't at all what her first instinct had told her. "I hope so. All I can do at this point is stir drinks." She said as they approached the dining hall. There was a fair bit of noise from all the people talking at once, as it was in any cafeteria or restaurant. Deora cringed a bit for her own hearing, she hadn't been around this many people for a while. "I wonder if they do to-go orders. But then, where would we take it? I don't think we can just step outside." She thought aloud, trying to figure out where they could eat quietly.

She watched as Kodak played the footage then saw the seconds she was looking for and said "There! Back it up a few seconds... Stop! Go forward a few frames.... There! Back one frame." The time stamp was 15:21:21:15.

"That's the guy, we need his face but the camera frizzed enough to cover the level where his face would be. Can this be enhanced enough to get a face that can cross reference our files? I guess it would slim things down if we cross reference the security team, it would at least tell us if who we're looking for is on the team or an impostor wearing the suit. I guess technically whether this person looks the part or not it would be more of the later."

Kodak's fingers play music over the keyboard, his manipulation of film an art in itself. His eyebrows create a concerned V after a few moments. "Huh, that's weird. I can't clear up the footage. Normally it would be a simple matter of rebuilding a glitch, but this is something else."

He switches the cameras to sequentially follow the intended targets movements. Each camera snows in a similar fashion. Right across the face. "It's him. He's causing it to happen. I can't clear up an outside interference. But I'll be damned if I let him beat me."

He returns to the original frame and zooms in on the uniform's name-tape.

Gidget gasps and places a hand over her mouth. "North?"

When Trinity realized who it was she cursed, "Damn it! I was too late again!". She let her frustration out in the form of a punch on a metal plate which left a dent. She took a deep breath, she can't let it cloud her judgement people's lives were on the line, there was no time to fall apart for what happened in the past. She picks up her phone and texted the captain of the security team [it's North. He can't be trusted. Proceed with caution.]

She let out a sigh and solemnly looks to Gidget, "So he looks like him. Does it have his power too?"

The three sisters moved as a unit. Their steps perfectly timed with one another’s, although not real thought had been given to the action. It was simply natural, such was the V shaped formation the girls walked in with the eldest taking point, the middle on her right, and the youngest to the left. There had been a point, not to long ago, when they weren’t as close. Before Liadan had brought home a small chunk of the space rock, which had changed some many lives, the sisters were often seen more apart then together. But the rock had brought a bond to them that hadn’t been there before. And it wasn’t long after their contact with it that they became ‘infected’. The color sapped out of their bodies, leaving their skin pale, no matter how much sun they exposed themselves too, their once blond hair had darkened into a sort of ashy gray which was unnatural among most humans. Their once blue eyes had also changed in a pale gray which often made them appear dead. But the changes to the psychical appearance wasn’t what had brought them together.

Like some many others, the sisters soon discovered strange powers that they quick learned to use and control. But this time, the effects of the rock differed between the siblings. It was then that their already vast world expanded to open new doors, new thoughts that had never occurred to the trio before. As the ideas mingled and formed together they began to create schemes and plans. The eldest, Jezebel, stepped forwards to lead her sisters towards their now shared vision.

The problem was, it was hard to get anything done at this point in time. So for now, their dream was unreachable. Which only caused the dark trio to become even more moody. It was for this reason that they had their outing for the day. It wasn’t often they walked so far, but it helped Jeze’s thinking, and that was all that mattered.

But it wasn’t long before the trio became bored. All the happiness around them was somewhat depressing for the gray girls. The street buzzed around them with life. People talking to their phone, the sound of the cars driving by, music playing from some of the store fronts, people chatting as they ate an early dinner at the tables of the outdoor café down the street. A sort of natural chaos that occurred in everyday life when you had to many things in a day to do, and not enough time. Such was the case with most people, but not these three. Coming from a family of old money, after they had finished school, their lives had become nothing but trying to find things to place in their day. Taking classes here and there, lessons for things they would never use again, nor would ever help them get anywhere in life, because they had little to no need of such things as work ethics.

Liadan was excited by the world around her. Bright and hopeful the youngest of the group was very easily the most cheerful, which made her sort of the black sheep of the family. Although she never seemed to mind much. Her pale eyes took everything in as she followed behind Jeze. She smiled to Kali, who either didn’t notice or didn’t respond.

Unlike her youngest sister, Kali was unimpressed with everyday life. Even before their contact with the meteor, Kali was unemotional. Now she seemed more like the living dead then she did a Meta-human. She was never excited or impressed, or even upset by anything these days. She wasn’t slow, nor was she brain dead. But it was the way that her voice was a strangely dull monotone paired with her always dead pan delivery that scared people away from her. She only stared straight ahead. Moving as part of the unit, almost unthinking as her eyes lazily closed for a few second, only to open to staring off into nothingness yet again.

An evil smile crossed over their lips in turn. Jeze tossed a glance over her shoulder at her sisters, who seemed to all silently agree. They stopped at the end of the sidewalk, waiting for the light to change. As they did so, Liadan took a deep breath as she closed her eyes. Reaching out with her mind to her sisters, picturing them as strong protectors of sorts.

Feeling the warm feeling of her sister’s powers, Jezebel’s smile twisted into a grin. A small laugh barely escaped from her as she stared at the busy traffic lights. “Let the chaos ensue.” Her sweetly evil voice was taunting as suddenly, the traffic lights all turned green.

As if at once, everyone hit the gas causing a giant pile up on the intersection. Horns hooked, people screamed in pair or horror as the same thing happened a street down as well. Jeze felt smug as she and her sisters turned and walked down the street, listening to the insanity they had caused.

When Trinity realized who it was she cursed, "Damn it! I was too late again!". She let her frustration out in the form of a punch on a metal plate which left a dent. She took a deep breath, she can't let it cloud her judgment people's lives were on the line, there was no time to fall apart for what happened in the past. She picks up her phone and texted the captain of the security team [it's North. He can't be trusted. Proceed with caution.]

She let out a sigh and solemnly looks to Gidget, "So he looks like him. Does it have his power too?"

The captain's text returns to Trinity. [North just went topside to see his mother almost 15 minutes ago.]

Gidget thinks for a moment and shakes her head. "I don't know. When I confronted Shane he only used his inherent powers. He is capable of consuming memories. It would be safe to treat this as though he could absorb powers"

"Alec" releases the lock on the door and opens it a crack. The memories of this body demanded so. He didn't trust anyone but Kerana, and it didn't escape his mind that one of his bully's could watch her knock and copy it.

The thing allows Alec's personality to bleed through, even though he is in control. He looks up at Kerana and blushes a little. "Kerana? I was...ahem...just..erm...what's up?"  

[Natsa]

Nauseous? Already?

The red eye abruptly opened, the eye focused on the bathroom as he scrambled to his feet and rushed towards the room. His jaw tightened intensely as he frowned slightly, Again...? With a flick of a finger he quietly closed the bathroom door before letting out a profuse amount of vomit from his stomach, coughing and letting out a spit before he allowed himself to sit against the bathroom wall. Placing the elbows on his knees he contemplated in silence, this, is also a reason he didn't sleep often.

"Why do you keep entering my dreams..?" The elder found himself muttering angrily, the disgusting flavor still residing in the mouth. Pulling the glove off of a lightly scarred hand he gently wiped the lower portion of his face. Getting to his feet he placed his gloves in his pockets to wash his face before leaving the bathroom, the youngster still sleeping soundly; his eyebrow rose gently before he looked around the room once more, sound from the room next to him slightly catching his attention but he chose to ignore it.

Sighing he sat on the end of the bed, hesitant to sleep with what had just occured. "...Father." The young man cursed for a moment, how could the man haunt him when he's not even dead? The very event made him regret his chance two years earlier, but the thought just made him angry. His jaw tightened slightly when he realized how low he had sunk, thinking such terrible things..was just unthinkable.

Each time it tried to answer one of her queries, another one would stop it. The creature found this girl to be simultaneously annoying and appealing at the same time. A notion which came with a little confusion. It shouldn't have these sorts of emotions. It chalks it up to having absorbed two highly emotional individuals.

Keeping with the ruse, the creature coyly squirms out of Kerana's super grip. It stammers, "No...I mean...I do, but...that is...I haven't finished it yet. I don't like showing my...unfinished work."

The captain's text returns to Trinity. [North just went topside to see his mother almost 15 minutes ago.]

Gidget thinks for a moment and shakes her head. "I don't know. When I confronted Shane he only used his inherent powers. He is capable of consuming memories. It would be safe to treat this as though he could absorb powers"

"Hmmm... I just got a text from the captain saying that North went topside to visit his mother...We need to warn her, protect her from what she doesn't know about her son...I still want to check the scene of the crime he may have not gotten far. He may be on his way over or something. So, I may be up against the pyro-meta....." she looks to Gidget for her opinion about her thoughts.  

[JewJewBeans]

Justine winced softly as they stood just outside the door. Her eyes were starting to itch she started to lift her hand, but then dropped it and balled it into a fist instead. "One of the game rooms might not be so loud, or maybe we could just eat in the hallway?" She suggested, although she didn't know much more then Deora... It seemed to Justine that the girl hadn't been there much longer then herself.  

[JewJewBeans]

She paused for a moment and looked at him wide eyed. She smiled and laughed softly at his words. "Yes. It would." She turned and began to walk once more to the warehouse where she kept most of the food.

It didn't take them to long to reach it. The giant metal door seemed to be the only thing keeping people out. Setting down the bags she had taken from Theonis, she grabbed onto the handle and slowly pushed it up and over her head to revel what little food they had.

There were a few small stacks of cans, mostly of different kinds of fruits and some soups and few cases of died Ramen in different flavors. The rest of the place was empty. She picked up the bags and started to sort through things putting them in the proper place so that she could give out what was needed to the people she cared for.

"Wow you weren't lying when you said you didn't have much" Theonis said as he looked around and put down coolboxes and his rucksack.

"Meat needs to go first, won't stay edible for long when it's not cooled." He mumbled to himself as he began to open his rucksack. He had a tendency to do this. Talking to himself while organizing things.

"So I take it not many people know of this place? If they did I'm sure it would have been robbed already."  

[JewJewBeans]

"It was a few times when I first started. But after giving a few people a good scare, word of mouth floated around. People don't like to see an angry Angel." She laughed gently, as she looked over at him. "After we get this stuff set up I'll go let everyone know and we can pass some of it out. Sound good?"  

[Nova Blancke]

Theonis laughed heartly as he imagined it. An imagine popped into his head with Angel standing in a see of fire with red glowing eyes.

"Well then...I'd do best not to piss you off then." He said between chuckles."But sounds good though. Let's do that."
