Reach City, year one; Orientation

[Mercenaryblade]

Traincar2: "Captain Sphinx, It' a pleasure." Sphinx said shaking the offered hand, Trevor however grunted "Wait a minute, how do we know he's not working with the other side? If he's familar with certain things that might mean he's connected to them." Captain SPhinx sighed, Trevor was always known for being rather blunt to the point of rudeness but he was a good man underneath.

 

Kari offered her hand, "Kari Faas, tech specialist. Our somewhat rude friend is Lt. Trevor Tennyson."

 

Traincar three: Fortune replied, "Oh just seeking my own fortune." He said with a grin.

[Guest Djgambrell]

Train 2

 

Nicholi paused for a moment. He turned and looked out the window again. "I'm... a half demon." He said quietly.

 

Train 3

 

Trace shrugged. "No really big SHADOW POWERS yet." He said with a grand gesture. "I kinda just stole one of my fathers names. Damn old bastard."

[Guest Ruinus]

Train 1

 

Maria's eyebrows shot up at the display Kendrea had just put on. "Huh." She then had a quick word with Pro before her clothing in turn changed to match what Kendra had been wearing previously and smirked. "I can do that too, probably also change into you but..." she paused, she'd never actually asked why she couldn't assume the appearance of other people. From what she'd understood about Pro's body-he was made out of tiny, tiney robots-she didn't think there was a technical reason why he didn't.

 

That is correct Maria, he spoke up. I can assume the shapes of other people, but never do for philosophical reasons. The same way your Silver Woman doesn't like to use guns.

 

Fair enough, Maria said before turning to her new companion.

 

"I can go even one more." Her skin suddenly morphed into a reflective chrome skinsuit. "Now I'm Silver Woman!" she said as she tried to strike a pose from her seat.

[Guest He who fights monsters]

"That hunter had some nerve to do that. Just as the whore had the nerve to solicit me. I imagine that we might have something in common in that some people have the nerve to bother us. Some nerve anyway." Alec shortly replied.

[OMFG]

Omega smiled, and brought out of his wallet a picture of him and his girl-friend.

"It's her favorite song." He added, pointing at her and smiling.

[jesus20456]

train car #1: Ursa shook his head, "It's fine." He said, before meditating again. Animalius would turn into an orangutan and continue carving the wood.

 

Train car #3: The Dark Lizard shrugged, "It's fine. I guess that's just the way it will always be." He mutters. Minerva meanwhile pulled some electronics out of her bag and seemed to be taking them apart and building something else.

[Guest KevinDWolf93]

Tram Car #1: The minotaur stopped strumming as the chorus finished out the last of the song. "How nice." he says, again pausng to smile through his helmet. "Where is she? I'm sure she'd like to be close for this" he says, curiously glancing around.

 

At Ursa's comment, the man insisted. "Nonsense! Here, I'll even help you through this next song." he says with a big smile. Meanwhile the morphing really got the kid wide-eyed. "WOW!" e says exited. he tries poking the orangutan/animalius to see if it wasn't some kind of smoke and mirrors trick.

 

Kendra looked on in amazement as Maria one-upped her. In the shock of maria morphing clothes, Kendra's reverted back into her goth look, most likely the closest thing she had to a default mode. She looked on stunned as Maria became Silver Woman. "Whoa." is all she says for a second. "Your a much better shapeshifter than me. You made it look so easy, I've never tried to change the texture of my skin." she says, still mouth agape as she looked over maria. She blushes aain as a thought crosses her mind. "May I um...try to copy the silver look?" she asks, her hands trying to get a feel on maria's shoulder to see if she was actually metal.

 

Tram Car #2: The lizard shrug's at Alec's comment. "Hmm, I'm not ssssure being bothered can properly be compared to attempted murder, but I ssssuppose you have a point to ssssome degree." the lizard shrugs. "What I meant that your ssssituation was funnier I believe." he says.

 

The fishkid hears nicholi's response as he turns away. The fish kid pauses long enough to breat before speaking. "Oh cool. Your like a good demon or someting....is that why you walk around with the casket? Or is it like something to do with your superpower" he asks.

 

While that happened, near the back of the tram the synthetic nods at Kari and Sphinx and takes the hand. "It is a pleasure to make all of yoru acquaintances. And I understand your friend Trevor's thought process. However I didn't mean to lead to such assumptions. I was familiar with a Star patrol AND a council of planets, however if we both really came from different universes than mere names are likely moot." he explains. "Nonthless my offer to speak to GEAR tech representatives is still open." he says with a cheery monotone.

 

Tram Car #3: The nurse frowns. "Well how is it you want it to be?" she asks curiously. The same upstart that made a comment about liking her was quickly shushed as she was about to say something. Meanwhile, one of the people asked what she was doing with the electronics, wondering if they should be worried about that.

 

When Trace explained the origin of the powers, the two were even more confused. "Waitwaitwait,I-...ahem. I'm Catholic so that sounds familiar now. Who exactly is your dad?" he says, raising an eyebrow. Dave likewise kinda put 2 and 2 together and curiosly awaited an answer.

 

In the back of the tram car, Dirk grins at Fortune's comment. "What a coincidence, I'd say something similar about my goals in the city." he chuckles a bit.

 

 

 

As everyone mingled, a voice came over all of the speakers. "ATTENTION PLEASE! BE SEATED AS WE ARE ABOUT TO LEAVE FOR REACH CITY" it says as the frotn engine begins to rev.

[Mercenaryblade]

Car2: "We'd be honored." Captain Sphinx said his curiosity wa certainly piqued, Kari could feel his curiosity and hope as well as Trevor's unease. "I say, are we sure this method of transportation is safe?" Trevor exclaimed as he felt the sudden jolt as the train started up.

 

Car3: "Oh?" Fortune asked raising an eyebrow.

[Guest He who fights monsters]

"I see. To tell the truth, I have a rule for myself regarding succubi: If she shows boobs, she eats rubes. And I sensed she was a succubus." Alec responded. "I'm a little paranoid at times, so I'm not too comfortable with... inhumanly attractive women."

[Guest Ruinus]

Maria shrugged, "It's easy really," she nodded at Kendra's look and offered an armored arm, "I don't know if... it's not really a natural ability." She paused and had an internal battle with Pro. "See the thing is, I'm a robot an-"

 

"The correct term," Prometheus spoke up through thousand of incredibly small sound projectors in her upper chest, "is that you are a mind upload currently being housed in a nanolathe form." Maria frowned at the sudden interruption while Prometheus went on. "Hello Kendra, I am Prometheus." Maria sighed as she offered her hand again in a handshake.

 

"It always feels stupid to introduce yourself twice to the same person." she muttered under her breath.

 

 

[OMFG]

Omega looked down.

"She's uh..not with us anymore..if you..uh...get my drift big guy."

[jesus20456]

Train car #1: Ursa shook his head, "I'd really rather not sing, if that's ok with you. Thanks for the offer though." Animalius is poked, he continues making his wood carving, which is nearly complete.

 

Train car #3: Minerva made a cell phone out of the stuff she had. The Dark Lizard decided not to respond, he did however blush about it when he heard that someone guessed right. He liked minerva, but that wasn't going to work out. That's why he came to the city, to make sure she'd be ok.

[Guest KevinDWolf93]

The tram bucks a bit after the engine is finished warming up. It then takes a big start off. Anyone properly seated would be fine, if a bit jolted, but in all the cars several individuals whow ere caught standing or holding onto railings were sent for a ride. The tram wa snow in motion at a fair pace.

 

Tram Car #1: The minotaur is still for a few seconds before he nods solemly. he remove shis helmet revealing his large bovine head and he nods a second time. "I am sorry for your loss. I would be happy to play her song." he says politely.

 

Elsewhere on the tram, the man speaking with ursa nods. "You are welcome mr. black bear. I jsut think that we all need to think of each other as neigbors as we enter whats essentially a new world." he says, staring off as the first song comes to an end and the turbulence shakes him a bit. The rest of the chorus is mainly fine as they wait for a new song to begin. Meanwhile the kid satisfied that Animalius legitimately shapeshifted, looks back to the carvings. "What memory is this?" he asks.

 

Kendra is just fine in her seat as she stares at Prometheus speak. She gives the duo a thousand yard stare as she tries to figure things out. Once she thinks she has it, she snaps out of it and begins speaking. "So, your like...the T-1000." she states. "But Maria used to be a person, but now she's like an AI...in prometheus...whose the t-1000? It's really nice to meet you both, people are usually weirded out by me...it's a funny feeling." she says as she shakes the hand presented. As she spoke, she felt "silver woman's" presented arm in an attempt to get a feel for how it felt.

 

Tram Car #2: The lizard man lsitens to what Alec has to say, seemingly getting lost on some details. "Wait...sssso you have met enough sssucibbi to having a plan when confront what you think issss one?" he says aloud mainly to get it in his head. "Sssome men have all the luck....heh, I'm not even in the cccity yet and thisss is incredible." the lizard man chuckles. Neither they or willow(assuming she was properly seated) had trouble with the train, though several smaller people are flung a bit.

 

The synthetic nods. "Excellent, I will be happy to answer any questions regarding my employers you might have." he says cheerily as he hears Trevor's question. "Ah yes, it is quite saf-." he begins to say when the big shake disrupts him mid-sentence. The rest of the group feel it as well. "Safe..." he finishes.

 

Tram Car #3: Noone was quite sure why she did that, but it did work. Granted it wasn't exactly a smart phone. it had an old brick design, if somewhat smaller. Someone hadn't brought enough transistors with them apparently. As Dark Lizard blushed, it was perfectly conveyed that they were right despite silence. "I'm /really/ sorry to hear. I can only wish you better luck in this city." she says.

 

Dirk nods at Fortune. "Quite...I think. How exactly did you mean it?" he asks, wondering if he meant by taking 'illegal' routes.

The thump hit's the back car the worst of the three, Minerva lost grip and would need to fumble the the phone to save it from falling, and the nurses almsot dogpiled the dark lizard as well as themselves.

Train 2

 

"Yea I guess I am good compared to most but that isn't saying much." Said Nicholi with a toothy smirk. Touching the casket he spoke. "As for this. My father always taught me a good enemy was to be treated with respect. I figured that the best way was a proper burial." He said with soft eyes.

 

Train 3

 

"Oh a catholic huh. Hehehe. Well you guys seem cool so I guess I can tell you..." Taking a step back Trace gave a lavished bow. "Antichrist at your service!"

[The Blue Flame]

Car 1:

 

Emma is cleaning her bow with a cloth keeping to herself, and thinking she can't want to go hunting for some thugs. All villains, thugs, thefts, killers, rapists, psychopaths, gangs, are all her prey. After her mother was killed by a act of crime her whole life is about taking down the scum of the earth. The only other thing that matters to her is Baz, and Gigi, her half brother & sister.

 

Car 3:

Travis noticed the girl talking to his brother and smiled. With his music playing, he didn't hear what they were saying. Cody's got himself a girlfriend, he thought, Way to go kid, now singing along at a quite whisper so he didn't bother their conversation,

The irony of him listening to this song, as a super hero, occurred to him and made him chuckle slight.y

Meanwhile the girl who checke don Travis shrugged at Cody's question.

 

"He hasn't seemed quite right since he got in here. No offense, does he always act like this?" she asks as she catches Travis grinning out of the corner of his eyes. She reacts by showing a weirded out face and turning back. "Umm..." she mumbles, not sure how to react as he keeps singing.

 

Car 3:

 

Cody raises a eyebrow at Travis's chuckle, and looks at the girl, "Nah, his normally more talkative. And well less embarrassing he normally does not sing out loud."

[Guest He who fights monsters]

"I have during my journeys. I also have read up and did my research. My research has helped me through the world. It is a small surprise I'm still around. All I see myself is a fish out of the water. Though I don't know for sure what's ahead of me, I have some ideas about it." Alec responded. "The oddity is that I don't see anything special about being an insect-person."

 

Willow buckled herself and braced herself for the ride. The sudden jolt made her breasts shake a bit. It was reminiscent of "Airplane" as she was eating jello.

[Guest Ruinus]

"T-1,000?" Maria asked in confusion. "What?"

 

"That analogy is apt, though not entirely correct." Prometheus answered, as he waited for Maria to respond.

 

"I not a robot-an AI-whatever," Maria emphasized, "I was born, I grew up and made my own ideas. I wasn't programmed."

 

"Quite," Prometheus said in a tone that clearly told Kendra he'd had this argument with Maria before and wanted to move away from it. "It appears that we are moving. Miss Kendra, how is it that you change the configuration of your clothing?"

[jesus20456]

Train car #1: Ursa nods, "Neighbors in a new world? how idealistic." He mutters. Animalius looks at the carving, "The day I moved to reach city of course." Animalius answers.

 

Train Car #3: Minerva smiles at her accomplishment and put the phone away. The Dark Lizard shrugged, "thank you." he said.

[Guest KevinDWolf93]

Tram Car #1: On Emma's right was Baz, who happeend to be singing along and thoroughly enjoying himself. Gigi....wasn't. She too tried to do some maintenance on her bow but baz kept on prodding tat the two sing along. Eventually Gigi gets up to say something, but the tram begins moving and she's swept off her feet, landing on her bum. "Ouch!!" she scowls in pain and anger. baz stops snging and just sort of stares at his sister for a bit. "Hey Em, back me up here..." he says to Emma.

 

Kendra frowns at Maria's defensiveness. "Sorry, I uh...well there's this movie and it kinda sounded like what Prometheus is. I didn't mean to insult you when i said AI." she says apologetically. She loses a bit of focus and sort of forgets about rying to be Silver Woman 2. At Pro's question she nods. "Oh, an old friend helped me develop the skinsuit you guy's saw earlier when i stopped projecting my usual getup. It shapeshifts as well as I do, can adapt itself to be most materials. Something about unstable molecules, I dunno heh. He was sorta smarter than me..." she shrugs before trying to go back to being silver woman. After a second her skin shines, she definitely looked the part. "How do I look?" she asks.

 

The man nods at ursa's statement. "I know right?" he says. "I like to think everyone can come together if something calls for it." he says, in his own little world. Meanwhile the kid nods. "Ah, so it's a good memory?" he asks curiously, poking his orangutan body once more to double check.

 

Tram Car #2: "Ssssome journiesss" the lizard says. before e can say anytign else, Alec cotninues, causing him to sigh. "Erm yesss, I do suppose. Granted given thisss group being ssspecial is a bit difficult." he says motioning tot he other montorous looking individuals. "All about sssself-essssteem."

 

Trout nods at Nicholi's comment. "Well i guess that's up to opinion. As for the casket that, I guess is pretty cool." he says before taking a breath. "So, is there anyone in there currently?" he asks curiously.

 

Train Car #3: The nurses grumble together as they have a hard time getting out fot he pile.

 

"Erm, your welcome....uh, mind pushign us off you?" she asks. The other nurses argue about something, dark lizard heard randsom chatter as they argued who was on top of the pile.

 

As Cody explained, the girl nods a bit hesitantly. "Oh, ok. I kinda see what you mean. Erm, if I can ask, why's he singing? HNervousness?" she asks curiosuly. After a second something in her head snaps. "Oh Im sorry. I'm Jessica Cyngus. I'm uh one of the security here. Make sure everything sin order...hence..uh, me asking" she says, holding out a hand.

 

As Trace introduced himself, Derrick nods. "Hmm...this is kinda akward. Not gonna lie" he says in his slow voice. he didnt seem to be offended, but he was thinking real fast. Dave shrugs. "Eh, I'm agnostic. All the same, nice to meet ya. Don't seem all that bad." he says.

[Guest Djgambrell]

Train 2

 

Nicholi smirked. "No. Just an alligator."

 

Train 3

 

Trace chuckled. "Yea I'm a good guy. Was a lot more powerful before but I kinda decided not to obliterate humanity. Long story. So Dad drained my powers." Trace shrugged. "Eh. I'm heading to the city cus I gotta get powerful enough to get him back. I'd say I'm doing pretty good after only four years."

[Guest Ruinus]

"It's fine," Maria sighed, aware that she had been too terse with the poor girl. "I'm just a bit touchy about my situation you know?" She cleared her throat, a gesture that she no longer had any use for-she no longer had an actual throat or saliva-before continuing. "Hey, that looks about spot on." she said at her transformation.

 

"Unstable molecules you say?" Prometheus mused while Maria rolled her eyes.

 

"Hey, looks like this tram is going steady, so there's no fear of falling over, what say we go and make more friends?"

[Guest tomisntblue]

Train Car #3: The nurses grumble together as they have a hard time getting out fot he pile.

 

As Cody explained, the girl nods a bit hesitantly. "Oh, ok. I kinda see what you mean. Erm, if I can ask, why's he singing? HNervousness?" she asks curiosuly. After a second something in her head snaps. "Oh Im sorry. I'm Jessica Cyngus. I'm uh one of the security here. Make sure everything sin order...hence..uh, me asking" she says, holding out a hand.

 

As she asked about his nerves, the song changed and Travis heard her. He hit pause on his Ipod and smiled, "Me, nervous?" he asked, with a smile, "Don't you know who I am? I'm Red Dragon! It's gonna take way more than this city has to make me nervous. No, I'm excited!"

[jesus20456]

Train Car #1: Ursa just assumed the man was an idiot and didn't say anything. Some people could just live in their own world. Animalius would go back to human, "It should be interesting to find out." Animalius answered.

 

Train Car #3: The Dark Lizard tried pushing the nurse's off him, doing best to not injure them.

[Mercenaryblade]

Traincar2: "I can see why they got rid of these trains and set up the magnetic rail." Trevor grumbled. Captain Sphinx shrugged, "Beats walking though." Kari meanwhile would take the oppurtunity to ask a question of the synthetic, "What exactly does your company do?" She asked.

 

Traincar3: When the thump hit Fortune grinned, "Rough seas ahead." He said, "How do I mean? There's some people in that city who need to feel the sting of my blade."

[Guest Princess]

Train Car Three

 

"Not a problem, sweetie. I've found that men usually leave their phones off... So stupid." Viper emptily assured, resting an elbow on the arm of her seat. At least this one didn't appear to be completely insane. Oh, thank God. Her eyes drifted to the wallet momentarily before she smiled again. "Pleased to meet you. Just go ahead and call me Viper; People seem to do that more and more these days."
