The Society of Justice: A Super Hero Roleplay

[Pm0n3y]

After several minutes of awkward glances and packing between Jason and Katie's dad, Jason quickly emerged from the room, carrying one of the father's bags. He made his way downstairs, dragging the expensive looking-yet-realitively heavy suitcase towards Katie and her mother.

"Okay Kate, your dad's on his way down, and the SUV is practically waiting outside for us. Lets pack up your mother, and get out of here as quickly as we can. It won't be lonng before Patriot starts his speech. Once he does, all airports in and out of the city will probably be shut down. We need to get to one before that happens." He says quietly to Katie, in hopes to not spook her mother any more than she already is.

Spoiler: OOC: BREAKING NEWS!

I'm leaving today from my humble abode, to embark on a strange and mystical journey. AKA, I'm going to New York to visit my family. By time any of you would've read this I will be dead either on the train or in NY by then. I will be gone for the rest of June and all of July (not to mention that I'm leaving to go to Florida directly after I get back from New York, so I'll be gone for a week in August). Luckily, my good friend is a spoiled Technovore, and my realitives aren't stuck in the Stone Age, so I'll have access to a computer, but I don't know what i'll be doing in NY, so I don't know how often i'll be able to post. But i'll figure something out.

"I know Tommy because he is something of an enemy to me. We're on different sides, but we've become friends recently. On the night of the murder he was at my house, recovering from what would have been death. Both myself and my mother would have known if he had left at any time," Leland added, not sure what else to say to them.

Garrus looked at his phone after it beeped a few times, quickly reading the message before turning on the tv. He turned the volume up as the screen changed to black screen, before showing President Collin Smith sitting down in the Oval Office.

"You forget how professional he can be," Garrus said to Richard, focusing on the screen as Patriot began his speech.

"Citizens of this great country, I am here today to inform you all of a danger. A danger that has, for the past few months, been growing ever more likely to be realized. It saddens me that it has gotten to this point, where I have to admit to you, the public, that although we've done as much as we can, there is going to be a war soon."

"Not between us and other countries. Heaven forbid that anything ever reaches that point. No, between an even worse enemy. Someone who has no allegiance, someone with only a desire to take over and rule over us all as they see fit. While we do not know much, if anything about this person, we do know what they will be using in the fight. We know that they care not for our well-being, but only to further their cause. We have started to make preparations, us and every other world leader, to take down this opponent once they show their face!"

"My people, I ask nothing of you at this time other than to be safe and cautious. That is why as of right now there will be no more commercial travel. I'm sorry that it has come to this, but I find it is a necessary precaution to protect you. Along with that, if things do come to a war then I beg of you to stay safe.

Thank you everyone," President Smith concluded, giving a nod as the camera went back to a black screen before showing the program that was on before.

"I'm fine with that thanks. I'll wait to see what you can do until after. First," Garrus started, turning off the tv and focusing on Leon, "Have you ever done anything illegal. Last I checked Dona though of you as a bad guy. How did that change?"

---At Katie's house.(before the speech)---
Not one but three SUV's pulled up in front of the Southe household. Men in black combat gear carrying sub-machine guns and military shotgun jumped out and immediately ran towards the building. One of them knocked in the door before grabbing everyone in the house as well as the suitcases and leaving as quickly as they had entered. Each SUV sped off towards the airport in a perfectly synchronized manner in the direction of the airport.

---Current time.(Speech and Aftermath)---
"You forget how long I've worked with him Garrus if you think that." Richard replied before the speech started he pulled out his phone and called the SUV still on the ground in horizon. The leader of the team sent to retrieve Katie, Jason, and Katie's parents picked up immediately.

"Is the package in the air?" Richard asked as soon as he heard the man pick up at machine gun speed.

"No sir, we are still on the ground. Has the Commander-in-Chief made his speech?" The leader replied in short, controlled sentences.

"Yes, move to takeoff site beta, we're going to use military travel for both legs."

"Yes sir, moving there now."

The SUV made a sharp turn away from the civilian airport and started making it's way towards a military airfield where an AC130 could already be seen on the runway. From their position they could not see the troops already moving down the ramp or the military equipment being unloaded.

"Alright, Rich can you vouch for that?" Garrus asked.

"Another question, are you a US citizen? Society rules are that you have to be a citizen to be a member. Better than the old rule where you had to be US born to be in the group. They changed that at the end of the first generation," he said to Leon.

"He committed arson, but it was of his own home and the statute of limitations has probably passed. The only court he would be seeing is one for insurance fraud possibly, if any." Richard replied before adding.

"But I'm not a lawyer and my knowledge of English law is minimal at best."

 

[tsatoma]

"Hrrm, Dona probably should get revoked then. Look, how about this: both you and Dona are not real members of the Society, but you can be allies to us? It's the only thing I can really think it. It will allow you to stay and fight with us, and it wouldn't be against the rules," Garrus told him, hoping the compromise will work.

 

[tsatoma]

Garrus sighed and rubbed his eyes before saying, "You can stay here for now. But since you are not a member of the Society you will not be able to stay here longer than say, a month. You also don't get some of the benefits of being a member, obviously. Anything else you need me to tell you?'

---Some time after Alister left---

Alister drove away from the theater in silence.

Well, that went... unexpectedly well. I'm a bit surprised nobody questioned the mask.

After some time he reached the Promenade, exhausted. Every attempt to form a thought in his mind was met with an odd combination of resistance and anger. He burst through the door, ripping his mask off and taking a breath of unfiltered air.

"There has to be a better way to hide my face." He thought out loud before seeking out his fellow teammates again. He walked into the cautiously, announcing his presence after the others appeared to be done talking.

"Hello, everyone; I'm back. So this Leon bloke's still around, huh? What are we going to do with him?"

Aaron awoke from a nightmare filled with his various inner demons. His body was covered with various tubes and wires connected to many medical machines. His body was still sore but he managed to crawl out of bed. He threw on some jeans and wrapped a towel around his neck as he made his way to everyone else.

"What's up everyone," Aaron greeted before stubbing his toe into the wall.

A man ran into the chamber and whispered into the ears of on of the judging mages. Conway approached Leland again.

" Mr. Claidt, could you specify where Thomas was between-" Conway was interrupted by the mage who had been whispered to.

" I apologize Conway, but there is an urgent matter we need to attend to, it appears the President of the United States has made something akin to a declaration of war."

"Against whom?" Conway asked, voiceing the concerns of everyone in the room.

"We are not sure, he was rather vague, but we need to postpone this trial until we know more." There was a murmor among the occupants of the chamber, the Archmages quickly exited the chamber, those who remain began milling about, talking anxiously. Dustin ran to Leland.

"This isn't good, I fear this developement will not help Tommy one bit. We need to change strategies, but first you need to contact all of your friends and tell me just what's been happening." He began to walk out of the chamber before turning around and beckoning Leland to follow.

 

[tsatoma]

Leland had an outward look of confusion on his face, but he knew what was going on. His mother had said that it might come to this if they didn't catch the traitor soon enough. He followed Dustin, not sure what he meant by 'friends'. Leland assumed that Dustin did not know about him being in the Union, so he decided to have a friendly mind chat with his brother.

Garrus had a shiver go down his spine when Leland contacted him, still not used to that.
'Jesus Leland, don't do that!' he thought, not sure if his brother would get the message.
'Sorry, but this is really important! That whole speech that Smith gave, that was about the traitor in the Union that stole all the stuff correct?' Leland asked.
'Yeah. Getting everyone prepared. We're waiting for new developments as of now.'
'Okay, thanks a bunch,' Leland thought as he disconnected before turning to Dustin.

"Alright. So that whole speech was about the traitor in the Union who has had enough knowledge and time to create an army that he might just use to take over the world," Leland told him quickly, "Umm. We still don't know who it is though..."

 

[Captainguy42]

" Incredible, I swear it seems the would is falling apart every second. " Dustin huffed as he got into his car.

As soon as Leland got in he sped off. When they were on the road he began talking, " We're going to the morgue where Perraults body should be. I'm going to interrogate him and find out who killed him, I've got a feeling we don't have much time for judicial crap with a war starting."

He pulled up to a large almost masuleoum-like tower, made from black granite.

 

[tsatoma]

"So I'm assuming going to interrogate his body is not allowed?" Leland asked, staring at the tower as he exited the car along with Dustin.

"I also take it we're not going to be going back to the trial?" he asked.
