"edison, pull over here, its my house, pus i saw a girl run down that alley, chased by a dude, time for some super heor work, oh yeah"
Johy jumps out of the car and runs down the alley way, next thing you see a huge flash of light come form the alley and a guy limping out looking burnt
" hello m'am, are you alright?"
" i am now, thank you, how can i ever repay you?"
"oh no need, i'm fi--"
then they start making out
(Kissing would be the proper word... Making out would be when you have been seeing each others for quite a while)
Jack sat in the limo. "Edison, I will come all the way back to the mansion, thanks" He sayed and looked throught the window. "That is NOT the way to use our powers..." Jack whispered to himself. He looked at Matt and then started playing with two fires that he liton top of his fingertips.
Matt says to Jack "Alright lets go but, shouldnt we tell your... pet? Just kidding my friend but, still should we tell him?"
" hey don't worry, i'll eb around" Johnny walks back to the limo, yeah, sorry bout that, just, when someone is in trouble i make it my job to protect them, yeah, i'll come back to the mansion actually, you don't mind if i chill there right?"

((Actually, making out is just kissing enthusiastically/for quite a bit. [/peanut gallery] :D))
(lol) "No not at all." Matt says.
"alright cool,so...now that we have our band of heros i guess, what do you think we should do? live out our lives or fihgt crime?"
"Well first i say we need a leader. But who decides the leader?"
" a contest?, but then, who decides the contest? hey edison, make a contest for 3 super human beings, please"
"Ok." Edisn sets up the conest "4 events. The last one is only used in case of a tie. The first test is... find the key in the dark and start the car. Ready go!" Matt jumps in the dark. (Still 2 more tests and each one is approipreat for a chaar so the last one will be one that all the chars have a shot at.)
Johnny lights up his hands to sue as flashlights and sees the key, he runs over to it
But Matt grabs it first he leaves the darkness and starts the car (Even tho he can not drive yet:D ). Then Edison starts speaking "The winner is... Master Black. The next contest is a marathon. The first person to run 5 laps around that course wins." Matt starts running.
johnny mumbles before he even starts running " may the speed of lightnign guide me!"
Johnny thne starts off and you see a streak flying around the course 5 times before eihter of them finish the first one
(Tepe is going to win the next one.) "Good job Johnny." "Congragulations mister Speed. In the next test you must burn down all the targets. Ready GO!" Matt grabed a mini flamethrower for this and started to burn to bad it did not work well.
johnny threw lightning bolts at the targetrs but for some odd reason the heat of lightning wasn't working too well on them, although they were burning
((Sorry, I went on a small trip to Sweden))
Tepe lit up many ssmall fires onto his fingertips and threw them towards the targets. When the small firebolts hit the targets, they made huge explosions that made a firewall between every target. Tepe looked the others as the flames went out, leaving only ash behind them. "Looks like a tie, Edison. So, what's the last one? Intelligence test?"
(Curt you decide the next one by controlling Edison. It is your RPG and I have NO idea what the last one should be.)
( me niether but i'll try)
" ok, here is contest, it will test not onyl your powers but your wits,might,speed,endurance and intelligance, this is your contest, first you must run to the docks and destroy 10 large crates, then swim to the island and blow up the abandonded garbage dumnb there, then swim back and put togethor this jigsaw puzzle, it will test your patience, then you must get in your vehicle and go downtown where one of my frineds will eb waiting you must correctly answer 10 of hsi questions, they rnage form math to science to current events, pretty much anytheng, then you come back and complete this obstacle course in the back fo the ,mansion, take your places.............3.............2..........1..... .....GO!"
(Curt one thing... MY CHAR IS NOT OLD ENOUGH TO DRIVE!)
(Curt, seeing that you win the running and get the advantage in destroying the targets, it's unfair to us. May I try?)
Tepe looked Edison. "How about: You give us an intelligence and leadership test, like we first answer some intelligence questions in a paper and then there would be situations to be tolde to us and what would we then do if one of this team would be in huge danger"
" yes that works, i will make up some situations"
(sorry, i didn't know)
Name: Alexandra Menon
Age: 18
Height: 5' 3"
Weight: 120 lbs
Element: water
Bio: Alex was rejected by her family when they found out what she could do. Not only could she control existing water, but she could also 'shoot' water from her hands. They didn't even bother giving her money to survive.
"Leave us and die," they said. Alex was hurt by their rejection and prepared to do as they had told her. As she sat on the streets, someone came up to her. A kind elderly gentleman had taken notice of her.
"May I ask what such a pretty young woman is doing on the streets?" he asked kindly. She made a sour face and squirted his face with water. He laughed.
"I see," he said. "Why don't you come with me? I'm not afraid of you, though you could kill me in a matter of seconds. Live with me, for I have no heir and I don't want the government to get my property."
Somehow, Alex new she could trust this man. For her 18th birthday, he showed her his will, signifying that she would inherit all that belonged to him. This included a mansion and several million dollars.
"You are the grandfather who did not reject me," she said. "I will stay with you."
And so she has.
____________________________________
Alex left the mansion and the man she had begun to call her grandfather early that morning. Though the old man had offered to buy her a car, she refused, saying that she preferred walking. He smiled and opened the door for her, closing it behind her.
This had become a habit for Alex. Every morning, she would take a long walk. People were friendly to her as she walked. Probably because they don't know what I can do, she thought glumly. No, not even the police knew of her power, for she had never used it on the streets, though she had spent several days training to use it.
She tossed her head, whipping her blonde hair out of her face, allowing her deep blue eyes to be more visible. She passed a small group of homeless men and their eyes turned to watch her. One of the bravest offered a whistle of approval. Alex wheeled to glare at him.
"Don't do that," she warned. He stood to his full height only a little taller than Alex.
"Or what?" he challenged. Alex had to restrain herself from using her water powers. Instead, she proceeded to beat the man up with the martial arts skills she had learned.
"Or you'll be sorry," she answered when he was flat on his back. Then, she continued her walk.
(nice, no one ever chooses water)
"alright, the event is ready the first question is" while they sit comfortably in matt's mansion "you are all walking down the street, and you see a shootout between the polic and gangsters, you can tell the police are loosing, what do you do?"
" ooh ooh, we kick thier butts with our powers"
((I just thought it would be cool... water is a sort of interesting power, you've got to admit that!))
Strangely enough, just as Edison asked that question, Alex saw that happening on the street, just outside Matt's mansion. Looking around, she realized that nobody was about to help the police. With a roll of her eyes, she muttered, "It always falls to me."
Being careful not to unleash her powers, she stepped in and helped the police fight off the gang. The police officers watched in amazement.
"Are you a Japenese in disguise?" one of them asked. Alex laughed.
"No," she answered. "I'm just good at this stuff. It was a pleasure to be of service."
With this, she turned to walk away.
" holy crap!, guys did you see that, that girl just whooped 5 gang members, and shes hott too!, maybe we should you know invite her in, have a little chat? hahaha"
((If you're gonna do that, you'd better hurry. Alex is walking away;) ))
"Haha very funny." Matt says "Why of course we would help them. I was about to say that but, the girl came. NO it is to late for her to join in on the leadership test."
((FYI, Alex is more of a follower than a leader. She steps into leadership roles very very reluctantly, so there's no problem with her joining the team.))
On a second thought, Alex paused and turned to stare at the mansion. She wondered why the fight had been just outside of it. Could there be some trouble within? She shrugged and turned to watch the police officers load the gang into the cars and drive away.
"This is one tough business," she remarked to herself. Suddenly, without warning, she was grabbed from behind.
"You messed with my gang," a man's voice growled. "Now you will die."
"Not if you open your mouth again," Alex retorted. The man's mouth opened wide in a laugh and, just as he inhaled to continue laughing, Alex slipped her hand up to his mouth, forcing him to inhale the water she was producing. His eyes went wide as he began to choke. His hands loosened their grip on Alex and she spun to kick him into a nearby wall, which just so happened to be part of the mansion.
The force of the kick and hitting the wall enabled the man to get the water out of his lungs, but he was in no position to move. Alex tied him up and left him for the police. For the second time that day, she turned to walk away from the mansion.
"Sh... sh... she ruined my mansion." Matt said "Well no matter just more money to spend. After all I pretty much HATE my wealth." Matt walked over to the girl "You have powers too? So do we. You would be perfect on the team."
( by the way, she said he didn't use her powers, so we don't know that she has powers, yeah)
" hi, i'm Johnny, you did incredible wokr with those gang members, your very fast, and your actions are smooth, like the surface of a lake, oh so smooth"
((Alex did use her powers, but in such a way that could not be seen by you guys.))
Alex was startled by the sudden approach of two guys. The first was clearly younger, but the second seemed to be close to her own age. She smiled.
"I'm Alex," she told the second. Then, her mind took in his compliments and she laughed. "I know how to do the maximum damage... or just make it hurt." She grinned and there was an awkward silence on the boys' part.
Turning to the younger, Alex acknowleged that he had spoken by saying, "It's nice to meet you, Matt." She noted the way he was dressed and said, "I feel it is safe to assume that you live here."
She then turned her attention to Johnny. "And you are his visitor, along with your other friend, who seems to be reluctant to come out. He's standing with a man I would assume to be Matt's butler."
Jack had not left the steps and Edison was standing with him, as Alex had noticed.
Name:Joseph Whisperlight
Age:18
Height: 6ft
Weight: 120lbs
Element:Light (BAM)
Bio: Joseph was A tall black haired brown eyes man. He was hansome in a mysterious way, but was rather out going. When he was a young boy his parents left him in thier lab. He messed around with alot of switches and made a lab acedent which only made him glow for a few seconds. What realy gave him his powers was a radiation explosion at a power plant which sent him into some electrical wires. This somehow awakend him and his molecules brok down into protons and emited light. But his human DNA kept his body together. So he now walks the life of a normal person with the power of light.
--------------------------------------------
Ap stood suprised, He saw the whole thing, the tests, the powers All of it. Then he saw the girl, Beutiful, He never seen such a person. He felt like suprising them so he appeared next to them as if to teleport
"Hello guys" He made his eyes glow a white light."I can't belive you guys came up with all these powers! I thought i was the minority...wow..." Joseph calmed himself "Im sorry, my deepest apologies, I'm Josesph Wisperlight Controller..." He made the palm of his hand glow "Of light..."
"Came up with them?" Alex answered bitterly. "How do you 'come up' with something like this? As far as I know, I was born this way."
Then, she noticed confusion on the faces of the others and realized that they didn't know of her power.
"I'm Alexandra Menon," she told Joseph. "Call me Alex." Then, turning to the others, she said, "I control water."
To demonstrate, she held out her right hand and allowed water to bubble forth, pouring down around her hand and creating a miniature waterfall to the ground. Then, the flow of water stopped and Alex dried her hand.
"Very nice to meet you." Ap tried to fix the confusion "What i ment was that you dont get powers out of the blue i mean sure you may be born that way but that would mean sumthing happend in your family that made sumthin unique, if you understand what I mean"
Joseph didn't realize that he had touched on a sensitive point. Alex rolled her eyes.
"As if my parents or any of the rest of my family could care," she snapped. Then, she forced herself to calm down. These people were not enemies. They had something in common. In a steady voice, she explained.
"When I was fifteen, my parents found out exactly how I could have such clean hands after playing outside in the mud with my brother. I used my power to wash my hands, thinking that everyone could do it. They kicked me out. "Leave us and die," they said. I decided to do that.
"For several days, I sat alone on the streets, trying to understand why my own family had rejected me. I now understood that my power was not natural, but they were my family. Weren't they supposed to accept me, no matter what?
"The man I now call grandfather found me on the streets. He took me in, even after finding what I could do. A month ago, for my 18th birthday, he showed me the arrangements he has made for me to inherit all that belongs to him.
"As you have heard, my true family no longer cares for me," She concluded. "Only Grandfather cares enough to look past how dangerous I am."
"O...I'm...sorry...I always have a problem with these things. I just, Im always a curious and deep information person. I didn't mean to offend you in anyway It's just in my nature." Joseph felt disappointed in himself, He was a rather sensitive person, A people pleaser. He realy didn't like to cause problems accedintal or not.
Alex nodded and shook the memories of the past away. "Don't worry about it. Whenever someone mentions family, it reminds me of the betrayal of my own. It has nothing to do with you."
"No no it's my own memory...See I almost killed my parents when i first started to get these powers. I was young and i caused a lab explosion." Ap turned away "I...I was just glad i finally met a group of peaople that i could relate to, It's the best thing I've found since I first got these powers."
"Perhaps this little group needs to be together," Alex said quietly. "Maybe we were brought together to encourage each other when these struggles come along."
She looked down the street, suddenly realizing that they were still outside. A look of terror crossed her face. She had revealed her ability in public! Then, she realized that nobody seemed to be paying attention, not even the police, who came to collect the gang leader Alex had tied up.
"We should move inside," Alex said suddenly.
"No need" Jack said with a mysteriously calm voice. He leaned on the wall and looked Alex. His eyes wandered from her feet to her hair. Not even a grin fell to his face as he offered his hand. "I'm Jack O'Reily. Fire in my soul" He emitted some fire on his hand as they shook hands and a small steam came between their hands as Jack's fire met Alex's water. "I didn't quite catch your name" Jack said and crossed his arms. He leaned to the wall again.
"Didn't you?" Alex said, her voice barely above a whisper. "I could have sworn I've said it twice."
A grin crossed her face as she raised her voice. "But since your ears seem to require a cleaning, I'm Alex." Her voice dropped back to the whisper. "Did you get it that time?"
Her eyes sparkled as she laughed, showing that she had been playing with him.
(For the record, Jack was standing next to the mansion with Edison while Alex told her name :D )
((I knew that, but..... you just had to ruin my fun, didn't you?:D ))
"Alex? Pleasure to meet you." Matt walks over to Joseph "You controll light? I controll Dark. We should fight some time. Well anyway my name is Matt."
"I hate to break this up," Alex interrupted, "but I would feel much safer if we could move inside."
"Agreed, We shouldn't realy let loose in the public, So lets head inside your place since my place is across town." Ap walked up to Matt "Dark....nice...So waht do you do during the day time? I mean during night i could just..." Ap made a ball of light in a fist"Light thigns up, So you can...over shadow things? Or like disapear...or you kno whats yours all about?" Ap was very inquisitive, and findng someone controlling the opposite of his power made him wander what they could do, Because HE didn't kno what else he could do(past all the blinding lights,speed of light and photon balls) in or with light. So, if he could find out what he did with dark then mabye he could try with light.
" yeah, inside would be great, by the way, lightnign here"
They all walk inside and sit down in the lounge
"we were just trying to decide who'd be our leader, but then alex showed up and whopped some gangsters and whatnot, ok before we start again i have to get this straight, i controll lightning, jack controlls fire, matt controlls dark, alex controlls water and joseph controlls light, alright cool"
i light my eyes wiht lightnign so they sparkle and glow
"ok edison, what is the next scenario"
" you are all walkign at night you see a drug deal going on, heavily guarded, assuming you go to stop it, how do you approach them, they have 6 machine gunners, 2 shotgunniers, 1 sniper and 3 drug lords"
" full force rush, never would they expect that" i say wiht great confidence
" any other suggestions?" edison says with curioustiy
"Well since it is night I just turn invisable and smack them all. BUT, without my powers I'd first get the snipers. Then get the druglords. Then I just take everything else." Matt turns to Joseph "Hmm... I've never tried makeing dark light but, in dark I can turn unbsolid and invisable. I can also shoot some Darjk blasts. Pretty much Dark is my power source. Also there is no need to go to yout house. Mine is right here." The group walks inside.
((This post is directed toward Johnny))
Alex rolled her eyes and shook her head. "They'd gun you down before you could reach them. Besides, we'd all react differently. Personally, I'd play it safe, scarcely doing anything noticeable. Make it rain or something until it's a steady downpour. They opt to go inside, but I'd ensure they never got there."
"It's difficult to see me in a rainstorm," she explained. "They'd never know what hit them." She looked around to the others. "How would you handle it?"
