League Of Sidekicks 3: Future Perfect -- Closed and Over...

[TheDoctor455]

"Hmm," Magus began, "I'm not sure... but I do know enough that I might be able to consult my texts and figure out who that entity was... anyway... lead on. Oh... and how is your arm doing? I may not have the skill to heal it right now, but I think I have some healing reagents I could try at my humble abode."

 

[VuvuZelaMan]

Umbra held out the wounded hand, holding it at an angle to minimize the burns' profile from Magus's perspective. "Thanks, but my hand is fine for now; I had a glove on, so it didn't get the full blast." Though I won't be able to use it in combat for a little while without treatment... I can take care of it later though.

Umbra began walking to the exit, looking back at the knight. "So I guess we're ditching him for now?"

 

[TheDoctor455]

"Just a moment," Magus urged, "Let me secure him."

Magus placed one hand on the knight's head, and performed a long series of exaggerated gestures with the other, muttering a quiet incantation all the while.

"There," said Magus when he finished, taking his hand off of the knight, "If his dark side takes over again, he'll be disoriented and confused... which should give anyone who would have to face him a better chance. Now... let's go."

Magus allows Umbra to lead him to where she heard the gunfire.

 

[VuvuZelaMan]

Umbra quietly opened the warehouse door, subtly looking out the door. "It was... that way," she said, pointing down the alley a good distance, around a corner. Making sure the immediate vicinity was clear, Umbra looked back toward him. "Why are we going to where the shots were again?" It might not even be related, I don't see the need to go find something else to get into.

 

[TheDoctor455]

"I thought you wanted to investigate the disturbance," said Magus, "If not... then what do you want to do?"

 

[VuvuZelaMan]

"I was thinking we could leave before anything starts back up. Take advantage of the lull to bid our retreat, you know?" Fighting out in the open isn't my strong point, and superpowers or no, bullets hurt.

 

[TheDoctor455]

"You seek a reprieve?" Magus asked, almost rhetorically, "You seek Sanctuary?"

 

[VuvuZelaMan]

...What? Weird way of asking about that. "If that's what you call not being gunned down in a rusty warehouse, then yeah," Umbra snarked in reply. She began exiting the warehouse. "So what," she asked, speaking in hushed tones - almost speaking to herself more than Magus. "is to be done now...?"

Spoiler: OOC

And for now, I depart.

 

[TheDoctor455]

Magus exited the warehouse, and then gently took hold of Umbra's unburnt hand. Then he closed the warehouse door behind him. Magus reached into the folds of his cloak with his free hand and drew a strange-looking key... the key seemed to be made out of a series of constantly moving gears... and yet, as he placed it into the warehouse door's lock... it fit like a glove. He turned the key, and opened the door, taking the key out once the door was open. He led Umbra inside, and instead of the dingy warehouse... it was as thought Magus had transported Umbra to another world. There were gears and bits of machinery along the walls, bolts of energy cascaded high above close to the ceiling (which seemed to be 100 feet in the air), and all manner of strange tools, implements, and chemicals adorned every shelf, desk, and table in the room.

"Welcome," Magus boasted proudly as he shut the door behind Umbra, as it disappeared, "Welcome to my Sanctuary. Feel free to rest as long as you like or need to here."

Cameron woke up in his makeshift home and looked around.. They are gone, probably for the better

Cameron got up slowly and made himself a cup of coffee. As he sipped at the coffee he tried in vain to think of a way to banish Dren It isn't possible boy Dren spoke into his mind

 

[TheDoctor455]

Magus was about to give Umbra a tour of his Sanctuary when some of the veins on his face turned a dark gray, and he collapsed to the floor.

Spoiler: OOC

Fjeld, this would be your cue to play whatever message Dren would've left in Magus's mind.

 

[TheDoctor455]

Spoiler: Doctor + Fjeld

Can / Do you mind if I meet up with you guys?

Spoiler: OOC

No, I don't mind... just have your character do something that would attract his attention once he wakes up.

Rachel heard an enormous crash from outside, grabbed her jacket, and rushed down and out her house. She slipped on her jacket and jumped into the air, flying off towards the loud noise. Shit, I hope that's not Jason... but, whoever it is, they need help. She landed in the rubble. Some punk probably did this... but they still need help. She looked around for anything to symbol where anyone was. "Hello? Anyone still alive?" She called out, starting to move some of the larger rubble with her powers. I hope that not everyone's dead. At least then I know I got here in time. She kept calling if anyone was alive and kept clearing rubble.

 

[CloggedDonkey]

Rachel lifted the debrief off of Alex. "First, I'm going to get medics here, but what do you need me to do?" She asked, her voice a little stern. Yup, a punk kid messing around in the construction yard, like always. Probably here to steal some equipment. Idiot. She reached down a hand to help the kid up. "And I'll need your name." She added.

 

[CloggedDonkey]

Rachel sighed. "Fine." She pulled the bag over to her and took out a few peanuts, cracking open the shells herself. She put a few into the kid's mouth. "There, now I'm going to call an ambulance for you, that is, if you want the authorities to know you were here in the first place..." She said, taking out her cellphone from her pocket. Poor kid. Hope he's not too badly hurt. Last thing I want is a death on my part. But, hey, if he can survive that and just ask for peanuts, he's tough. Or stupid.
