Prototypes: Super Hero RP (Finished)

[scotth266]

Patrick felt the rush of adrenaline and fear grip him again.

Should I run? I have to run! He's a spy, or some shit, I don't know!

But what about the others? I can't leave them to him... and I doubt that I could escape Samuel. I have to warn them, tell them that they're traitors! If we can subdue him before Samuel gets back, maybe...

NO. WE WAIT TILL THE OPPORTUNE MOMENT TO STRIKE. THEN WE WILL TAKE ALL THEIR LIVES.

Patrick jerked back. The Voice!!! How had it gotten so loud, even though he wasn't using his powers all that much?

He felt himself beginning to sweat, and his pulse was off the charts. He needed to calm down, relax. Otherwise Sparrow might catch on, figure out that he was on to him. Gradually, he managed to calm down, though he noticed that Sarah was looking at him funnily.

"What's up, Patrick? You look really stressed for some reason."

"Ah, it's n-n-nothing. M-M-Must have been s-something I ate." Patrick joked, though he stuttered a little more than he would have normally.

He would wait to tell the others, but in the meantime he was going to keep Sparrow and Samuel in sight (or at least in mind) at all times. If they showed any signs of betraying them... he would have to do something. Lord only knew what, he was the weakest member of the group-

ONLY AS WEAK AS YOU WANT TO BE, MAGGOT.

Patrick was riveted to the spot. Why the hell could the Voice sound so GODDAMN CLEAR!?!

Justcalmdownjustcalmdownjustcalmdownjustcalmdownjustcalmdown!!!

Once again, he managed to de-stress himself. It must just be the headaches: that's all. The pain was making the Voice louder. He just needed to chill...

[Of course. Sparrow, you can't hide conversation from Emily. She'll hear everything.]

Samuel smiled.

"I'll try. But I'm not sure where I can find a PC hooked up to the US-databanks. No cyber café would be, and I don't have a Laptop in my pocket or anything." Samuel said. "But I've got some data about relatives and loved-ones. Found it in the doctor's PC. I'll be there in a sec, and show it to you."

 

[scotth266]

Patrick heard Emily ask about #5: it helped him, focus, snap back to the real world and get out of his head.

"H-He's kinda odd. H-H-He has some ice powers... and he th-th-thinks he can hear it talk to him."

 

[Shapsters]

"Talk to the ice? That seems rather odd."

Emily put her arm around Patrick, he seemed especially nervous today.

"You ok buddy? You seem very scared and nervous."

[I'm still gone]

 

[SamuelT]

[Of course, that's totally logical]

 

[scotth266]

"N-N-Nervous? Nah, just feeling sort of s-s-sick is all. Th-Thanks for asking though."

What's supposed to be logical Sam? That Iceous can hear the ice talking to him? Seems kinda fishy... but then again my guy has a Voice in his head telling him to kill all of you

 

[Doc Theta Sigma]

[Actually nevermind, I just figured it out ^^;]

Things were not going well for Doc... First of all, the 20% had suddenly hung up during their conversation and a split second before it happened Doc could have sworn he heard groaning metal. That meant that #4 had probably found the 20%. All the more reason for Doc to get to Chicago as fast as he could.

He'd used his mind control powers to get his way to an airport and onto a plane bound to Chigaco, which is where he was now, sat in business class. He was pondering what he would do once he got to Chigaco... And if he found #4. If he was smart he'd have left. On his own #4 wouldn't be that dangerous. However if the Seven were in a group it would be more difficult. He'd have to come up with something more subtle.

 

[SamuelT]

[No, the Shapster being gone, and still posting is all logical. And Doc, you've got a giant complex with militairy hardware. Become creative.]

Samuel turned a corner, and saw the group a small end away. Scott looked sick, a bit green, Sarah was looking at something in her hand, Emily was talking against Scott and Sparrow was standing with his back towards Samuel.

"Hey, Sparrow. Look behind you."

 

[AllFather]

[HOLY CRAP! WHAT JUST HAPPENED?!? Thats like reading a novel! What happened in short?]

 

[scotth266]

Patrick saw Samuel approaching from behind Sparrow. It suddenly crossed his mind that Emily had really good hearing: she might have heard the phone call!

Shit! If I picked up on that, Samuel will too... gotta think of something quick! I don't think that she actually paid attention to Sparrow talking about the #8... Wait. Samuel wouldn't just confront her about it right now, he wouldn't risk that info getting out in the open, right?

All I need to do is wait till he confronts her later. Then, I know what I can do to keep him from getting suspicious, and at the same time tell her what's going on.

It won't be pleasant for either of us... but I'll have to do it.

 

[Shapsters]

[Alright, you caught me, I am here, but I am not leaving, thought I was]

I heard Sam before Sparrow,turning around I saw him standing behind us.

"Hey Sam! How did your little trip go?"

 

[SamuelT]

Samuel smiled to Emily.

"Well enough, Emily. I've found something that could interest you all. I don't know if someone has a place to stay? I need a PC, or a laptop to show it to you all."

 

[Sparrow]

Sparrow turned to see Samuel, looking quite please about himself.

"You got the good Doctor then, I suppose?"

Looking over his shoulder at the rest of the crew, Sparrow's gaze locked with Samuel's.

"I'll have to talk to you about that eight year old case in a few minutes Samuel, alright?"

 

[scotth266]

What?

Patrick was confused. Why would Samuel show them the laptop, presumably with all the files on #8 inside?

He must be assuming that she picked up on it. Or maybe he has no idea... Wait. It's a possibility that he's already deleted or moved everything relevant to #8. I have to keep my guard up, be ready.

When he heard Sparrow mention the word eight again, that clinched it.

He must have moved the files on #8. A thumb drive maybe?

It didn't matter. He'd still have files on the rest of them, and Patrick needed his past to stay buried. If they took a look at that data, who knows what they could uncover? They could learn about the Voice, for chrissakes!

You think I'm enjoying this paranoid delusion sequence? You're right

 

[Shapsters]

"Oh, ok, lets go! Should we go to your place or Sarah's?"

Emily looked behind her at Patrick, he was extremly nervous looking.

Patrick, if you are reading my thoughts, calm down, is there something you want to talk to me about?

[sorry scotth, I didn't realize you could talk to me with your gift, I fixed my post]

 

[SamuelT]

"Yeah, sure. We'll talk about that in a minute."

Samuel looked at Sarah, who seemed to be engrossed with her photo's. They showed her, only a bit less mature then she looked at the moment.

"I think my place is the best place, less likely to be under surveillance."

 

[scotth266]

Patrick saw Emily looking at him in an odd way: her eyes were really focused. He reached into her mind with the Gift, trying to understand what she was doing.

"-if you are reading my thoughts, calm down, is there something you want to talk to me about?"

Patrick thought for a moment, then replied:

Just wait, and try not to be tense, I've got it under control. Trust me.

Patrick was glad that me didn't have the same problem with telepathy that he did with speech: he could easily focus thoughts. Words though... words were still hard, and his stuttering got worse under stress.

EDIT: Damn you Sam... you're making it almost TOO easy to be a paranoia freak. I mean, you think someone's on to you, so you invite them into your lair? That's just asking me to flip out

 

[SamuelT]

Think of it like me, if things get out of hand it is best to happen inside a controlled enviorment of my choise, instead of too many unknown factors in a place I don't know.

 

[scotth266]

Patrick now knew that Sam thought SOMETHING was up. Samuel would never suggest that they head to his place: it wasn't his style to be the housekeeper. He was trying to lure the group into a location he knew, block off chances of escape if things went downhill quickly.

The good thing was: Sparrow wouldn't know the terrain either, and seemed fairly oblivious to the intent behind Sam's suggestion. So Samuel would have to tip him off somehow.

As long as I stay alert, he can't signal Sparrow without me knowing! But is he trying to kill all of us, or just keep Emily from talking? I might need to tell them all about #8 soon. And what if he just turns on Sparrow too, and kills the lot of us?!

Shit!!! What do I do?!

EDIT: Aw yeah, you better bet that I think you're a backstabber!

 

[Sparrow]

"Heh. Good job. Sam let me stay here when we came back from America. This way I can get my favourite bed back."

Sparrow and Samuel laughed, as Patrick looked horrified.

"Patrick? Whats up?"
