The Society of Justice: A Super Hero Roleplay

[Captainguy42]

Tommy was standing in the drive way, swinging the turret like a comicly oversized hammer, sending suited men flying into the distance with each stroke. It was actually entertaining. A flying suit swooped low, it's blazing guns tearing up the concrete around him and his vest. Tommy pull the turret back and cocked his left elbow out, just like a base-ball player at the plate. When the suit just got in range he let it rip, slamming the turret into the suit so hard that the turret got torn apart by the impact, while the hapless pilot was sent flying into the distance. Tommy waited for a second with to watch him fall far, far away from the battlefield. He looked at the ruined turret and decided to ditch it, throwing it into another incoming tank's tracks. He was honestly enjoying himself, with his enemies so well armored he didn't even have to try not to kill them, so for once he could just cut loose and give it his all.

Gerard was silent as he watched Richard go, his head hung in shame. He feared for what might become of him, especially if they did not succeed in defeating Omoi.


"Ah Richard! Did you deal with the Gerard man?" Patriot asked, punching one of the guards a few times as he talked, "Did you get the information we needed?"

 

[blaze96]

Richard was pissed at himself for letting Gerard go, the man had killed so many and Richard didn't have the guts to kill him. He didn't do what needed to be done, he had failed miserably. When he had seen him there broken and scared for his life, he couldn't do it to a creature so pitiful and helpless. He hoped he had done the right thing, and maybe he knew deep down, but he certainly didn't feel like it right now. His tone conveyed his disappointment in himself, he had no chance of hiding it.

"Yeah, he's up there, alive. The cops will have an easy time getting him when this is over. Omoi is in Vaughan City, in a secret bunker near the 710 freeway on the outskirts." He took a seat in the room and simply stared out at the city with flashes of light occasionally popping up in different areas.

Jason finished the remaining bodyguards with ease as Richard rejoined the others. He frowned slightly as Rich admitted that he left Gerard alive, but what was done, was done. There was no way to change the past.

"So what the hell are we waiting for? We know where Omoi is. Let's go and finish this." Jason said, flicking blood off of his claws.

 

[CounterAttack]

Katie stepped over the guard she had just knocked out, shrank her shield to a smaller form and wrapped her vines around her arm. The fighting had been fairly difficult, but nothing she couldn't handle. Any guards she had faced were knocked unconscious, their guns stacked in a pile in one corner. She briefly wondered what would happen to them, but dismissed it.

"Jason's got the right idea, to an extent," she chipped in. "We should go and find Omoi, but we can't just barge into the bunker the way we did here. It'll probably be heavily defended, so I think caution is an essential factor."

 

[Captainguy42]

A squad of suits charged Tommy, intent on pushing him from his bastion. The suit leading the charge threw a hay-make at him, Tommy lifted his right arm to deflect the blow, then using the same hand to grab the arm, procceeding to swing the suit around by the fore-arm. The suit helplessly, crashed into his allies, with enough force to send them all flying several feet back and battering Tommy's impromptu club. The pilot was dazed by the expeirence, Tommy too that chance to lift him up and slam him into the pavement, embedding him at the waste, before turning to his allies.

Patriot watched Richard take a seat and look out the window, walking over to him and putting a hand on his shoulder.

"Hey there Richard boy! Are you alright? Because truthfully I thought you'd already be halfway to Vaughan City as soon as you hear that that is where Omoi is," Patriot said half playfully and half serious.

 

[blaze96]

"I had him right there Collin, and right then and there I could have killed a man who was instrumental in ruining what took years of dedicated work. Lord knows he deserves it, and yet I just couldn't do it. I had wanted to kill him so badly, and then he was just so helpless and pitiful I couldn't bring myself to actually do it. My entire philosophy was 'kill one to save a thousand' and yet when I could have killed one to save millions I failed miserably. I don't even know why I did it, everything in me wanted to up until I had him. I had him, and I let him slip through my fingers all so an international tribunal can have him shot instead. What the hell kind of person am I? I couldn't protect my work, and when given the chance to met out justice to the ones who did it I let them go." Richard said quietly while still looking at the battle raging below across the city.

 

[tsatoma]

Patriot was silent as he thought of how to reply to that before telling Richard:

"I understand that it must be hard for you. You lost your pride and joy to these people and when you had the chance for revenge you didn't take it...but that is a good thing Richard. Falling to the allure of revenge has completely ruined so many of my brave friends once they went down the route. Think of it as a strength that you did not go through it, that you were strong enough to push aside all the thoughts of revenge!

Now I think we should be getting back to the Promenade to tell everyone else of where Omoi is. If you want to be alone here for a few minutes that won't be a problem, we'll just head back ahead of you."

 

[blaze96]

"You're probably right Collin, but I just don't see it right now. I'll go back with everyone else, and thanks. God Collin, I don't know how you do it, but sometimes you are the smartest man in the room." Richard replied as he stood up.

 

[tsatoma]

"It does tend to amaze everyone," Patriot replied back, patting Richard on the back before turning to everyone else, "Okay everyone time to head back! Jason do you still need a ride back? What about you Alister? I can carry both of you!"

 

[Pm0n3y]

Jason stood quiet, almost trance-like as Patriot talked to Richard, his eyes steadily affixed on the two heroes.

"Damn. How did I not notice that? How could I have been so naive?" He thought to himself with a sigh before Patriot addressed him, breaking him from his trance.

"Y-yeah." He answered quietly as he approached PP!.

 

[CounterAttack]

Katie had silently listened to the conversation, but opted not to comment. For one thing, she didn't know what to say to him in regards to that particular topic. Instead she simply walked over to Richard and said quietly, "Am I using you for transport again?" She extended a few vines from the armour covering her torso to tie herself onto Richard's suit.

 

[CJ1145]

Alister's eyes widened. If it weren't for the mask and hood, the look of sheer terror on his face would be evident. He shook his head and hands vigorously.

"I'll be fine Mr. President, really." Alister assured him. "My bike's parked just a few blocks from here, I can make it back on my own."

 

[blaze96]

"Yea Katie, you can ride on my back again. I mean, it's either that or let the psychotic with the heart of gold carry you home." Richard stood up and got ready to fly back out the window towards the Promenade.

 

[CounterAttack]

Katie chuckled at that and stepped closer to Richard's back again, tying her vines around the armour and reinforcing them for the trip. Once she was absolutely certain they were secured and would hold, she said, "All right, I'm ready."

 

[tsatoma]

"Nonsense Alister! I'll drop you off by your bike then!" Patriot exclaimed, grabbing Alister and Jason's arms and flying out of the building, the glass windows shattering behind them. He looked around the bike before seeing it in the distance and dive bombing down to it. When he reached it he suddenly halted and dropped Alister, giving him a salute as he flew off with Jason back to the Promenade.

 

[CJ1145]

Alister saluted back, shaking a bit. He got on the bike and began to drive back to the Promenade. Not a word. Not a thought. Just utter silence.

 

[blaze96]

"Alright Katie, we'll be going now then." Richard said somewhat solemnly before flying off back to the Promenade. He kept thinking about how he should have killed Gerard and how it was justice and not vengeance, but even though he knew the last one was at least something of a lie he took solace in the fact that it would all at least be over soon.

 

[tsatoma]

"That was pretty fast," Garrus said as he watched Richard and Patriot land over by him, "I'm assuming everything went well?"

"But of course Garrus lad! Everything went as smooth as it could!" Patriot replied, patting him on the shoulder.
"Figured as much. The enemies have been acting a little weird now. Requiem was saying something about how they no longer have orders coming in...I think," Garrus told them, turning to Requiem who started beeping, "I swear it's like a game of odd charades. Okay. Uhh two words? Three? Six? Six it is. Uhh...one of the words is 'suit' since you're pointing at one and an 'r'? I think that's what you're sayin-"
"He's saying that the suits are getting new directions," Camille said, landing down next to them but keeping an eye on the enemies.
