Situations ;;Open;;

Jace hit the ground really hard and cracked his head on the pavement. I needed those brain cells dammit! Jace pushed himself off of the ground slowly. He groaned as shooting pain shot through his head. He didn't stop, he continued to lift himself off of the ground. Jace's sight was a little blurred, his head pounded. As he got up looked at the huge monster in front of him, "Sorry I don't bow down to anyone, whether you like it or not."

Raven jumped out of the way and winced when she saw Jace get hit.

Jace looked over at Raven, "Don't just stand there, go!"

Raven looked back and forth, she knew she'd be no help, but she couldn't let Jace get hurt. She thought for a few more seconds and decided that he'd get more hurt if he tried to protect her too, so she ran.

John's arm retracted back, preparing for a second strike, before suddenly he froze in his track.

Kal ran across from the corner he emerged out of and into the battle scene where knelt in front of the ferocious beast "Please, please forgive my foolish son!" He brought both his hands together as he begged "He does not know how to respect such a higher being as yourself. Please, if you could spare him, i will punish the boy for his disrespect"

First overwhelmed by surprised John looked from Kal to jace and back. Finally the human scum appreciate my superiority... He rejoiced I guess i could spare this insignificant whelp "Your son you say... Keep him under a tighter leash next time" John threatened, his blood lust reflected in his glowing yellow eyes "Damn KG's will be here any minute..." He murmured, convincing himself it was the right thing to do before his 4 enormous wings flapped vigorously, blowing dirt off the ground like a helicopter as he took off, disappeared beyond the horizon and a few tall buildings.

"Hmmm... That was a sure bet" Kal said, rising to his feet and dusting his pants up "Pride is the only thing one wants to accomplish from a fight. And the only way to avoid it is to give him exactly that." As he began walking again kal paused by jace and raven "Dont forget, a fish cant cry, and a bird cant smile"

"Nope....Not..Not that...Never....That wouldn't even fit me" Benjamin murmured as he went over all the clothes in his drawer, throwing the clothes that didn't match on the bed. "Nope" He threw another shirt onto the bed. Turning his head to the sound of footsteps He focused his attention at noel for half a second "Oh, hey!... I was just looking for something for you to change into later... But my wardrobe is not too diverse... to say the least" He than resumed his rummaging of the dresser "Hey, my old uniform" Benjamin held up the heavy red KG suite with his right hand "I was looking for that.... Wonder where the helmet is..." Never-mind that He thought casting the outfit on top of the stack that slowly piled up. "Bingo" He said taking out a folded shirt and pants made of cloth, fairly small. "I had this little thing when i was still a rookie... wasn't old enough to be on patrols or anything. Surprising its extremely compfty, but don't worry, we'll go shopping for something that fits you more later. Now you just change and ill go sit at the table" Benjah than placed the clothes on the other side of the bed and lifted the pile of the unfitting clothes back from whence they came. Leaving the room Ben closed the door slowly, giving her her privacy and taking a sit at the left side of the table, pouring himself of apple juice as he awaited.

Ellie stood in the doorway for a few seconds, giggling quietly at Benjamin’s remarks to himself. When he finally noticed her there nearly drowning in the fabric of that huge robe, she couldn’t help but grin a little; that had to be a funny sight. Her eyes wandered to the growing pile of dejected clothes on the bed. For a moment she stared at Benny’s old red soldier suit. Noel visualized herself trying it on, just out of curiosity. It would probably be very loose, her hands not quite reaching the heavy gauntlets, her face half visible from within the collar. She blinked for a couple seconds, shaking the amusing image out of her head as Ben handed her a set of clothes, told her where he’d be, and left.

Looking at the folded clothes in her hand. Clean. YUS!! She hung the robe on the nearest hanger and quickly slipped into the blue denim pants and red T-shirt. Of course they hung loosely around her frame and made her feel all gangsterish, but she gave herself a quick glance over in the mirror and pulled her already curling hair into a ponytail so that it didn’t soak her new clothes. A thought nagged at her mind all the while. Stop beating around the bush, now.

“Gotta tell him,” she said to her reflection with finality. With a quick nod to herself, Ellie left the room and joined Benny in the kitchen, where she took a seat and poured herself a cup of apple juice as well. But before she even touched the food – despite her stomach’s protesting roars – she took a deep breath and forced herself to meet his gaze.

“About the whole putting-off-work thing… well, you shouldn’t worry about me, I wouldn’t want you to loose your job…” When she didn’t sound convincing she paused, hesitating, and sighed. “Well…” Ellie bit her lip. “You need to act natural…”

“Nobody can know I’m here,” she said candidly.

[dbkillerex]

Finishing his sip of the juice Benjamin couldn't help but smirk at the loose clothes appearance "Agh don't kill meh, all I have are these... Dlishious... smoldering... cheese toasts thingies...!" He raised his arm into the air and flailed them slowly in a fake cry for help. Noticing a serious expression on noel's face Bennjah slowly lay down his hands and quit his joking.

"Aww, you don't have to worry about that. Ive spent so many years in the KG's i could poke the baron's rear end with a pitch fork... twice... and still have my job..." He tried laughing at his own joke, failing miserably as his overactive imagination played out the vivid description in his mind "What i was saying was... we patrol those areas in order to help the citizens, and thats exactly what i did. So to tell the truth I'm not putting off work, I'm just doing it better than the rest... following the basic rule of them all, one worn out by time and forgoten by today's Krimson guards... Have a heart" Ben took a bite of the sandwich, a string of molten cheese stretched out from his mouth to the rest of the toast until it gave in and tore apart, releaving itself of the tension it was in.

Wow.. Sometimes the simple things really are the best He admired the meal before looking back at noel, leaning slightly forward as he spoke "Don't worry, you are safe with me. No one will ever know you are here... Not until you decide you want them to." He gave off a warm, trustworthy smile before moving on "Now, before you go out and get to know the neighberhood, buy clothes or whatever people do in their free time... I need to warn you about the dangers of wondering the streets all alone like you did 10 minutes ago... Its a reall story, you wanna hear it?"

[Nelly]

Ellie couldn’t help but to giggle a little bit at Benny’s silliness before she’d straightened her face and gotten down to business.

When she had finally gotten the truth out – the truth being that she didn’t belong here – she shrank back in her chair and waited quietly for the command that would send her back out, or maybe he would do the honor of taking her back to the nasty Erol himself. Ellie shuttered at that thought. Going back to Erol… no way.

But then he surprised her by telling her she was safe. Damn… he hadn’t even asked why she had said what she had. He was so nice…Noel smiled the smallest hint of a smile and allowed herself to take a bite out of one of the sammiches on the plate before her as he continued. He wanted to tell her a story… A somber story, by the tone of his voice.

Noel blinked at him for a moment, then nodded. Benny’d snatched her curiosity.

[dbkillerex]

Benjamin's eyes turned to his plate, consuming the toast in his mouth fully before clearing his throat and laying both his hands on the table. Benjamin's eyes stared into noel's pupils as he spoke

"Its the story, of a kid with no name... Of a man with no shame... It all started at the orphanage. He was the new kid... I remember talking to him, how he raised his eyes to me, and his crystal blue eyes pirced into my heart with grief and wonder all together... He didnt know anything... completely clueless of all that surounded him, staring onto everything as though it was the first time he ever saw it, ever felt, or heard it ...
He came with a Krimson guard behind, the steps echoing a hollow darkness inside the boys mind, you could see he was out of focus. The krimson guard took care of all the papers, claiming that the boy's parents has deceased and simply left.
He always had an aura, a dark aura, metphorically of course. He was shrouded in mystory and he would change his mind extremely often... He was the wonder boy of the orphanage, he would help lift objects too heavy for the adults and fix everything, from the refrigerator to the air-conditioning...

But that boy, didnt have a home, he didnt have a family... So the inevitable came... one day a family arrived to adopt him... "She's not my mother" Were his faint screams... And he lost his mind. The adults, They tried to stop him, but the door simply flew off its hinges... shattering as it hit the floor... and that boy vanished into the darkness of heaven's streets, the spark in his eyes dimmed and perished as he slowly faded away into an unknown horizon of a painfull future...

Now... Whene someone like that who has nowhere, noone to go back to... Where would he go?. He didnt go anywhere, he stayed there in the corner of the street, than he got robbed, and beat up, than stabbed and had to beg for spare change in order to get through each day... Untill that faithful day he decided those kind of life are not suitable for a man such as he, and he rose off the ground, and he became.., He became a powerful man with great ambitions, only problum was that they where all the wrong ambitions... He became a cold blooded serial murederer... And the pure eco that cyrculated his blood, the enormous gift that had been granted upon him was wasted on slaughter

Today that man is nicknamed DB, no one knows his name, no one will ever care enough to ask... and he is one of the most devious and destructive people to ever hit the city... Now imagine if... if Someone like me would take him away from the street that day that he ran and give him a home, take care of him... Who knows?, maybe he would have become a krimson guard himself..." Benjamin chuckled with sadness vibrating through his tone of speech before he continued to consume his meal.

Jace glared at the man furiously, "What the hell man? I don't need your help, just lay off. I'm perfectly capable of handling things myself." Jace gritted his teeth, "And next time don't even think about calling me son, I had a father and you are not him!"

Jace stormed off his thoughts consumed with anger and how he wanted so much to see Isabel. Why? Why am I torturing myself like this?! She wouldn't want to be with a joke like me, I'm sick of feeling this way. She doesn't want you Jace so end your little fantasies! He realized that he was walking to where John had gone, he ran to catch up, "Hey I wasn't done with you!" But it was too late, John flew off and Jace stopped. Then he headed back to the other man, "Thanks a freakin lot, you just ruined my opportunity for a decent fight!"

[Nelly]

She started picking at one of her sandwiches and waited patiently while Benny ate his own. She'd gotten through half of the first when he cleared his throat. Ellie looked up, eager to hear this story. His gaze held hers, transfixed. Then he began his story.

As he told her of a lonely child in an Orphanage, of a young boy with a sadly corrupted mind, her sympathetic frown grew into almost a grimace. How horrible, she thought. How horrible that the one thing this boy needed and wanted, he couldn't have it! Noel’s heart squeezed in sympathy for the boy. But she was silent and listened on about how the boy grew up to be a strong man, but a malevolent one at that.

Suddenly something clicked in her mind. And man, her face must have been one big ‘….OH.’ That man, she realized. The one from the streets back in the Slums. Ellie recalled how he’d locked gazes with her for that split second before Benjah had so readily left the place.

“That was him, wasn’t it? That was DB…” She asked hesitantly. “…the one that was looking at us.” She shivered, remembering his cold eyes.

But it was just so… sad. She felt sorry for him.

He obviously needed a hug, was her absent thought as she finished her meal as well.

Some other distant notion was that not all was well in the city. Something was going on; she could feel it. Tension was rising and varying. Noel tried to shrug it off, but it kept gnawing at her conscience.

This was an important day for Starus. Fresh recruits to the KG have finally arrived at HQ for their first dose of training. Starus was assigned to give them a proper orientation since he is one of the oldest officers.

"We strive for the well being of our citizens and protect them from harm outside or inside the city. We show them the respect that we must want for ourselves. But understand that some, of course, do not obied by the law of the Baron. So know the difference between the innocent and the guilty." He went on with his speech. But in his mind he knew that Erol would wind up screwing them up as well.

"And lastly. Understand that you are..."
"Excuse me, Captain..." A sergent interrupted.
Starus was struck at the disrespect for his orientation. A little annoyed he excused himself and set himself to the side to speek with the Sergent. "This had better be good Collins...."
"Well sir, um.. I've recieved word that control want you to report to a riot in patrol zone 75,49."
"Can't it wait?"
"Control said immediately, sir."
Starus removed his hat and scratched his head. "Who was assigned there?"
"Benjamin Scorpio, sir."
Starus sighed and replaced his hat. "Very well. Finish up for me."

He walked off leaving Sergent Collins off guard and dumbfounded with leaving him with the orientation.

Starus assembled a team of his PAD as riot control and general KG as support and reported to the sight of the ruckus. Starus shouted commands on the radio from his Hellcat hovering over head and after many cans of tear gas and arrests it was time to give Benjamin an ass chewing.

He located his Hellcat on a tracking devices installed in every Hellcat and saw the address where it was at. It was stationery at his home! "That lazy son of a.." Starus sped off over the traffic highly frustrated from the incompetence.

After a few minutes of travel he saw it. Ben's Hellcat parked right outside of his home. Starus slowed down and landed right next to Ben's vehicle. He stepped down and walked tith quick. long steps to the front door. Starus immediate baned on the door as soon as he got to it. "Benjamin! Its Starus! I need a word with you. NOW!" A classic Starus Grisum arose from his voice with that unbending tone. But this time it had anger in it.

Khaloron sensed John nearby. This was convenient. He needed to talk to him. Using the Metalheads' natural ability to communicate. He called to John telepathically. "John... I know you can sense me. Come forth..."

[dbkillerex]

"Judging by the size of that monster, his aggresion and the speed of his first strike... It is highly likely it would have turned ugly very quikly." Kal replied and continued his walk, he than pointed toward jace with his cane and said "You sire, are a potato".

Not before long Kal had been stopped for a quik questioning from a KG who had witnessed the case

"Are you okey buddy?, it seemed a rather wreckless move to just barge in inside a battle and lie like that"

"Im feeling better than an ottsel in a pickle jar... Those fellows love to do the moonwalk upside-down especialy when they fall into the sky on a broom dancing the cha-cha-cha with garden gnomes. Other than that i evaluated that the agrument's core issue was the creatures pride, once recovered, even by means of deception there was no need to fight. And therefor it was worth the little drama i had to put up". Kal spoke calmly as though he is reading off a book

"Would you mind if i write that in my report?"

"Would you mind a precursor and a hellcat hide inside your garden hose?. Ive been wondering why they call them hellcats anyway, cats cant fly... why not call them hellephants while your at it?." Leaving the scene kal left the KG bafled as he tried to understand the logic behind kal's words "Your also a potato" A distant call echoed through the streets

"yes... It was DB alright. I wonder whats he up to..." It was not long before Benjamin's kind expression triumphed his recent word's sadness whene he decided noel got the massage. Than Ben continued onward "So here's what where gonna do..." His words where interupted by a knock at the door, a strong commanding voice was heard from accross, infested with rage. "Hide... Lock the room if you must" Benjamin than began to run a plan through his mind. he hid the dishes in the kitchen sink and sprayed a perfume over the house to hide the smell of cheese. Than wore his armor, loaded his weapon and approached the door

Organizing the various grocaries he stole DB began cooking his lunch, dark eco powering his jaws as he tore through a thick steack lke butter. "Those fat ladies always have the best food" DB began a monolgue with himself as he stared out the window to see kal walking away "What a weird man..."

Opening the door Benjamin stared into Starus's eyes form under his helmet "Starus!" Benjamin saluted, although on the same rank he had some respect for starus's seniority "I was just on my way back, i realised i had left my ammunition at home by mistake. And am much less affective with no fire-power. What brings you here?..." He asked graciously, going through KG rulles and protocalls in his mind in-case he needs to further justify himself.

Johns massive wings carried him as he hovered accross the streets, suddenly he came to a halt. Hoverng for a second, making sure it was no figment of his imagination

John... I know you can sense me. Come forth...

The massive beast lowered itself onto the crumbling asphalt which cracked beneath his feet, and his long legs carried his weight with relative grace with the help of his genetically enhanced muscles.
John's armor-like skin now seemed rugged and dusty as he got up from the ground and began to walk toward the origin's of the voice... Than in-front of him came visible a monstrosity no lesser than his own... Khaloron
