Pretankeras Infinitus (Slots still open! This rp is back on)

[Azalan]

(OOC: Hey! Red sky! Are you ready? Here we go! Hold on! It's gonna be a pretty crazy ride from here on out! Welcome aboard! )

On the rooftop of the fifth story of the Division Infinity Tower stood two men. One of them was Shadow Zentas. The other was a new recruit to Division Infinity. "We have finally arrived to where your first mission shall be young man. Tell me, what makes you think you should be allowed to join us? Show me...what makes you so special." Shadow said as he stared at Revontheus. Shadow's piercing green eyes seemed to stare right through the boy. As if looking into the soul. Shadow's eyes had a faint yellow glow to them as the moonlight reflected off of them. Shadow had chosen to wear his true outfit for this interview. After all; there was something special about this boy. Shadow could feel it in his bones. Question is, Is Mr. Shardem able strike my interest? I have interviewed many people this week. I wonder what makes him so special? Shadow thought with a smile as he stared the boy straight in the eyes. Shadow had a grin on his face; for once in a long time, he was excited. This boy showed great potential but...could he make the mark needed to go forward from here? Shadow was wearing a monochrome jester hat with four little branch like shoots which had bells on the ends of them, a black cloak which looked quite lite, a pair of black lace up converse shoes, jet black jeans, and a black and white laced dress shirt. On Shadow's belt was sheathed a short sword of unknown make and type. On Shadow's forehead was a silver crescent with a dot in the middle of it. The crescent glowed with a faint silver hue as the moonlight shown down onto it. "Your reply Revontheus?" Shadow said as he smiled and started juggling four black and white hackie sacks.

[AZURE-KITE]

(Hmmm, big entrances, i like it....)

Revontheus stood firmly and looked directly at Shadow's piercing eyes "What makes me..." He fixed his glasses "So special?...." He took a few steps forward "You see.... Most of the fools that came in here, are just for the simple reason of smashing things, the most elaborates are... well, one of my 'fellow companions'" Then smiled as he raised his head, his glasses shining for a second "As for me... I am here to put order into these..." Paused, then said with a little of arrogant tone "Brutes...." He fixed his glasses again and looked at Shadow once again "Your new team needs a leader, and i am the perfect candidate for that spot.... If i'm not..." Smiled confidently and closed his eyes "They will end up killed, for i know some of the Juveniles here are...." he groaned "Lets just say... Too much brawns and no brains" He put his left hand on the respective pocket, and extended his right arm, opening his hand "If you need more answers..." He closed his right hand, making a fist "I can always convince you the hard way" He smiled confident as he slightly turned his head, his glasses flashing for a second again "And i will show you why you should have me in your team.... what makes me so.... special...." He let a sligh laugh

(Is shadow going to test him? :3, oh btw sorry if it looks kinda.... out? but its 2AM here and i was going to bed as i saw this.... so pardon me for the silly and inadecuate 'Big Entrance')

[Azalan]

(OOC: Nahhhh don't worry about it Red Sky. After all. I love a challenge. :3 How are you today? Is are you guys almost ready for Christmas?)

Shadow smiled and started laughing. Shadow pushed put his hand to his sword and drew the weapon pointing it at Revontheus's chest. "You have proven your worth. I knew you were different from the rest of my agents. If you do well, I could see you doing moving up in a quick fashion. I chose to show you my true form because you are special. If you choose to accept it. I have a team who you may join once they get back from their mission." Shadow said with a grin. Shadow sheathed the sword a few minutes after he had finished speaking. "Welcome to Division Infinity. I hope you enjoy your stay with us. You and I will do great things...If you are up for the challenge....Mr. Shardem." Shadow jumped back from the boy and lounged in the air ten feet above the roof as if he were on a sofa. "Are there any questions you have for me...young juvenile? Also, do you fancy a cup of tea? I have green and Chamomile." Shadow said as he clapped his hands as a table appeared in front of the two. On the table was a pot of hot water, two cups, and some tea bags. Some were chamomile, and the others were green tea. "Help yourself, if you so wish." Shadow said as he watched to see what Revontheus would do next.

[AZURE-KITE]

(I'm ready for another normal day now that i won't get anything special, my room isn't decorated, my house isn't decorated, altough i might spend my christmas playing Xbox 360 with a friend.... Yeah i don't have a gf nor a bf so i'm pretty lonely)

He smiled, "You can call me" He fixed his glasses again and said with a smile "Shinra" He approached the table and grabbed a cup, grabbed a chamomile bag and put it in the cup "So tell me...." He filled the cup with hot water and started moving the bag inside the cup so that the fragance of the tea would fill the water "Wich mission did you gave them?" He drank a bit of the tea "To look for Dr. Fielding's whereabouts i might guess?" he gave out a little laugh and walked close to Shadow "So.... When are they coming back? I'm anxious to get to know them all..." He drank a slip of tea "Also... I would like to know what will the next mission be" He fixed his glasses, and finished his tea, walked to the table and put the cup atop the table "Because i still have nothing to defend myself..."

[BishounenNerd]

Cato then grabbed Azeroth.

"I guess this ends our conversation for now. Come with me..."

Cato held Azeroth's hands from the back and made him walk in front of him to the portal. He then gave Azeroth a nudge when he was in front of the portal, pushing him into it, but not too hard. Before Cato stepped into the portal he replied to the Locos Dragon's inquiry.

"Our team got split into 2 major groups. One of them went after our contact, and the other one pursued Azeroth. We're bringing him back to headquarters now for interrogation. If this goes well... I think we may have a lead..."

After that, Cato stepped into the portal to join Azeroth and Akima.

Akima and Azeroth were on the other side of the portal, yet Azeroth seemed to be unwilling to go anywhere. He was being strangely co-operative.

Cato took a moment to ponder why the Escarius Flux seal shattered when the portal formed within the room. Perhaps that seal had the power to disrupt certain types of incantations? Whatever the case, the Locos Dragon was clearly powerful enough to shatter it. He then took a moment to run the symbol in his mind one more time... He had a idea. Reflecting on Azeroth's words earlier, about creating a "new world" by destroying this one... Did it have something to do with the Jupiter Array? Would Escarius Flux use the Jupiter Array to destroy the world and build a new one from the ashes? To the others, he would have appeared to be lost in deep thought.

[onimi18]

Akima smirked as Azeroth came through the portal. She quickly grabbed him and hauled him to his feet. Shortly there after, Cato appeared. As Akima and the security detail escorted Azeroth away, Akima noticed Cato looking rather deep in thought. Both curious and concerned, she filed it away to be dealt with later.

Down two hallways, down an elevator shaft to three levels below ground-level, and down another hallway, they were in the heart of the Division's Black Op's HQ. The captain of the security detail was radioing in a request for an interrogation room.

Heads turned to watch the strange procession, and Akima couldn't help but feel pride in her accomplishment.

Outside the interrogation room stood a tall and broad man with a grim look upon his face. "And this would be?" he asked gruffly.

"Escarius Flux agent. Goes by the name 'Azeroth', though I wouldn't put it past him to lie about tha-"

"I shall take things from here," the man interrupted, a scowl growing on his face, "Return to your station immediately. Someone will be along shortly to debrief you."

The man then signaled for the security detail to escort Azeroth into the chamber. The man followed behind them, and after he closed the door Akima whispered, "Yes...Father."

( I don't know where all this came from! Free-writing has a way of bringing out the coolest things! lol Oh, I can already tell that Akima and Shinra are going to butt heads over the whole leadership thing. You can expect her to not sit still for that.)

[BishounenNerd]

"Alright... It looks like you two have everything under control. I'll head back to the underground and regroup with the others. By the way, thank you for accompanying me down there. Also, I'm sorry I've never gotten the chance to properly introduce myself to you. My name is Cato, what's yours?"

Edited - A certain line felt somewhat out of character. Cato is almost never informal.

[onimi18]

Akima looked to Cato as she sulkily walked away.

"Akima. It's been nice working with you," she said.

[GamerKale]

((Sorry, I've been busy with stuff for the past couple of weeks. And likely will continue to be for the foreseeable holiday season. Also, I did not notice the post where the girl was described a couple pages ago.))
Jiles looked at the dog, Quartz, who was growling at him, or rather at the opposite side of the corridor and laughed. "No fooling a dog, is there?" A couple aspects of the illusion faded, mostly the Jiles appearing as a Crystallux and the displacement. Jiles knelt down and let the dog smell his hand as he looked it over with his pitch-black eyes. As he apparently gained the dog's permission to exist Jiles rubbed the stone dog's neck and ears until it rolled over onto it's back and then he started rubbed it's stomach. "Hey there, Quartz, I'm Jiles and I had a little dog kind of like you once. His name was Joker and he loved having his belly rubbed too."

[BishounenNerd]

"Likewise." Cato replied. "Well, I'll head back underground and catch up with the rest of the team. I hope we get to work together again, Akima."

Cato then gracefully waved goodbye and stepped back into the portal. After he got back to the underground, he headed in the direction of the last known location of Don Chopper.

[Azalan]

(No big deal kale. :3 glad to see you back! Sorry I didn't get to reply to your pm. I've been busy! Merry Christmas! )

As Jiles was petting quartz a pair of figures moved in the shadows a mile away from where the group had found their target. The air in the room suddenly got colder and a feminine laugh could be heard. The stairs the group had walked up to get to their current location rumbled with a loud noise as en explosion rocked the room. After the explosion had stopped the door the group had come through was gone and it was covered with rubble. The light in the room was completely gone as all sources of artificial light had been turned off. In the dark there was the sound of someone running down the hallway. Quartz had survived the blast of the rocks but had become angry and was barking running off in the direction of the mysterious attacker. As he ran one of his feet fell off and the stone puppy hobbled pitifully after the person who had destroyed the stairs to the room.

Quartz barked loudly as it grew bigger and ran after the one who had attacked them. Quartz was now the size of a husky and ran off into the darkness. The dog had glowing purple eyes and as it ran off the ground started to crack where it's feet fell. The group's contact was laying on the ground motionless having been knocked unconscious. There was sever bruising on her arms and her eyes were open but she wasn't moving. The girl's chest was rising, but faintly. Her body was shaking as if in great pain. The girl's lips were moving but no sound was coming out. The lollipop she had been eating had been shattered into sharp shards and was in splinters on the ground beside her. She was still holding what was left of the candy in her motionless bloody hand. The girl's blood was black and looked like thin streams of tar. The look on her face was one of complete shock.

Whoever it was who had attacked them, they were not invited to the meeting place. The watch she had been wearing which was identical to Don's was now a smashed chunk of metal and glass which was attached to her wrist. One of her arms had been broken from under her skin was a pink glow. One of the girl's bones in her arm could be seen through a rip halfway down her arm and pulsated with a strange pink light. The girl's foot had also been bent extremely to the right and was obviously broken as well seeing as it was twitching while she was laying unconscious.

( oh boy surgery time)

Joshua: ( he found himself sitting there in shock at what happened as a image of a little Juvenille girl flashes into his mind)....( the start tatoo slowly begins to appear as he looks over his shoulder) Jiles were getting out of here now...I'm going to rip them to pieces...I'm going to make them beg! ( he snaps back to reality after he notices the condition of the girl) .but first we can still get her back alive ( he rips open his bag as he takes out surgical tools gaus bandages etc and a lamp that he lights so he can see shes a crystallux ( he throws his glasses on) I can't perform extensive surgery here and were trapped though if we wait to long these wounds could be fatal ( he begins to perform a mock surgery just enough as he drinks a small amoount of her blood into his body so he can try to understand how a crystalkux body works like the composition and everything) dammit Hayate I need help! Jiles you should probablly head after the dog ( he begins operating almost like a expert surgeon as he lets his hands move freely) sorry ahea of time but this is going to hurt a lot Hold on come on hold on... sorry I wish a real surgeon could help you you'll have to settle with me ( he continues to fix her up and patch her up any way he can as he manges to fix her up just enough till they get her to a real hospital in the base as he than takes his coat off and wraps her in it making it easier to carry her out

[GamerKale]

Jiles was thrown against the wall by the explosion and his ears were ringing. "What?" Jiles said as he gathered his wits about him, he hadn't heard what Joshua had said and said loudly. "I'll go get the dog, you two make sure the girl's ok." Jiles got back to his feet, placed one on the wall of rubble behind him and pushed off, or tried to, his foot crushed collapsed the wall behind him and he himself nearly fell to the ground. Too much strength, let's try this again. He got onto all fours with one heel against another piece of rubble and used his boosted strength to go from 0 to 60 like a sportscar and shifted from strength to flight immediately so that he lost no momentum to the ground. Swimming flying only real difference is that I'm not all wet. Jiles withdrew the bow from his back and fired rapidly at the fleeing assailant as he rounded a corner. Maybe she thought the darkness to be her friend down here, unfortunately Jiles could see her running form just fine and there was a very good reason he didn't use a gun.

She spun as an arrow hit her in the shoulder, fortunately this saved her from getting killed by any of the several follow up arrows which only grazed her as she rounded a corner. Jiles flew past the dog, grabbed up the arrows off the wall in one swift motion and shot off the wall at top speed, narrowly evading a bullet wall and grenade, switched to strength, crouched on the ground an instant before colliding with Quartz, and shouldered its chest, using his bow as a buffer for his body. He had some interest in chasing after the woman that had attacked them, but there was a more pressing concern, the girl and by extension the dog, plus he wasn't interested in getting killed. Enormous granite foo dogs are heavy and hard to move, don't let anybody tell you different, and one that's gotten some momentum is even more so. Jiles did a great deal of swimming for someone who wasn't an Octumas and so he was rather athletic for a bookworm and as a bookworm he knew about little things like leverage, add both of those things to his juvenile strength and he managed to stop Quartz with only his bow snapping, rather than the entirety of his body. "Quartz, you want to protect your master? Then we have to get back to her. Simply reacting to them will play straight into their hands." Jiles hefted Quartz onto his shoulder and jogged back towards the others, well perhaps jog is a bit of an exaggeration.

"Those rapscallions can wait. If they really want to kill her they'll come back, and then you can tear them apart." Everybody loves a good magic trick, white magical hats! With his free hand Jiles aimed his sidearm, an over under double barreled shotgun, down the hall and created the illusion of there being several black banded white top hats moving around in the passage to conceal his movements. "Hey, stop squirming. You're just making this more troublesome for me."

[Azalan]

(Sorry for adding in an edit guys, I tried to post from my smartphone and it screwed up the grammar. So now the post is COMPLETELY readable. Also, Kale did you want to get on skype with me while I finish cleaning my bedroom?)

Quartz was grateful Jiles had stopped him. In hindsight, the man was right. Though Quartz had belief in the raw power he had at his disposal; the stone colossus knew he was out matched. Quartz wagged its tail in curiosity as Jiles swept him up like he was merely a sack of gravel. After Jiles set Quartz back on the ground,.He kneeled down so Joshua could tie the now hurt Cystallux to the saddle on his back

In an alley by the hallway where the Escarius Flux agent was running by stood a man with a pair of blue eyes smiling as she ran by him. Too easy. They always panic and in that, they have already failed. The man thought with a small giggle. As the woman was running by an arrow had pierced her shoulder causing her to scream and stagger. As she was by the place where the figure was hiding he smiled and simply put up his jet black cane and grinned as her forehead hit the stainless steel cane's long shaft with a satisfying bone chilling smack. The figure walked out from where he had been hiding, and kicked the woman in the side. Then he smacked her in the chest knocking the wind out of her. With a sigh the figure looked Jiles right in the eyes and waved at hit smiling. Though the man's eyes didn't seem to glow in the dark, it looked as if he could see Dr. Islesi as if the two were in perfect daylight. .

Joshua: ( he finishes the operation stabilizing her condition cor the time being ) this is why I hate fighting it leads to nothing but pointless violence and pointless deaths it's because of things like this I don't raise my fists to fight I only protect I've seen enough of this done that should be okay now ( he rolls up his sleeves as he places his gloves back on) okay ( He finishes cleaning up the wounds Nd the operation as he packs his bag quick as he puts the goggles on that was give to him from the Locos dragon) 1,2,3! Arrrgghhh! ( as he also finishes bundling her up within his coat as he lifts her up carefully) allright Damn I forgot how heavy crystallux can be We need to get out of here but I doubt escarus flux will let us leave with the girl without a fight And what do you know these things really do work I can see great! Let's get going hayate

[onimi18]

Akima returned to her cubicle to begin the tedious process of writing up her report. True, the rest of her "team" hadn't returned, but for the sake of individual experience and intel, she only had to worry about herself, Don, Cato, and Azeroth.

---

His name was Leonid Alder, and for the past twenty three years he had been in charge of the Division's Black Ops. It was a gruesome, painful, and thankless job, and he would often find himself signing off on a death certificate at least once every other week. But it was his job to hold onto all the Division's cards and keep them out of sight from the other 'players'.

He stood in the interrogation chamber, glaring down at the young man his daughter and her squad-mate had brought back. The boy's loyalties were with Escarius Flux, which made him very dangerous; he would have preferred an on-site interrogation versus bringing the sonuvabitch back to HQ!

"All right, let's cut the crap," Leonid said to Azeroth with a dark, gravelly voice, "You were obviously brought here because you wanted to; because your masters wanted you to. My...agent...made a mistake and now you think you can sit idly by while you wait for the right time to reap the rewards."

Leonid grabbed Azeroth's shirt collar and pulled him close. "Thing is, your not gonna get that chance." Leonid walked over to a small table on the far wall which held various devices. Picking up a small rod, he clicked a button and it grew by half a foot, it's furthest point glowing white hot, and the air about it distorted from the extreme heat.

"Now, you are going to tell me just what kind of mind-f^ckery you and your colleagues are playing at, or you're going to wish God hadn't burdened you with a central nervous system. Savy?"

To bring his point home, Leonid jammed the white-hot tip into Azeroth's side, and smirked at excruciatingly painful screams that were being ripped from the young man's lips.

---

Name: Leonid Alders
Age: 56
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Alignment: Neutral/Chaotic-Neutral
Abilities: --
Weapons: --
Notes: The eldest of five children, Leonid is the current head of both the Division's Black Ops and the Alders family. His experiences as a soldier for the Black Ops have shown him the worst monsters and nightmares in the world, and have shaped him into a dark and angry man. He demands absolute loyalty from his agents and officers, as well as obedience; lack of either will be met with swift and painful punishment. He blames himself for the death of his wife.

[Azalan]

Azeroth smiled as the last scream came from his mouth. Azeroth fell to the ground and lay there pretending to be hurt. "So you propose I am here of my own free will? Tell me, what do I gain from being inside this tacky little shed you fools call home? Do you really think I give two craps about this place?" Azeroth said as he closed his eyes. Clearing his mind, Azeroth though to Omega. Well we are here now, but the question is; what now? We are for lack of a better word stuck. Nothing we can do will get us out of this. Omega was deep in thought. Though he knew the mission, his host was right. The two were in fact stuck. Omega smiled. The being had thought of a solution. Azeroth, fit in with this group and see what you can do to stall for time. I shall think of an escape option for us. Azeroth opened his eyes acknowledging Omega's plan and lay on the floor like he was limp.

[onimi18]

"I didn't ask about you, I asked about your superiors," Leonid said, glaring at Azeroth. "Logically speaking, the best way to take down a rival organization is to get inside it's walls and take it down from the inside. Ever heard of the axiom 'keep your friends close and your enemies closer'? I suspect that those who lead Flux sent you to our agents, commanded you to engage them but let them capture you, just so you could be here."

Leonid smirked and said, "Now, maybe your superiors thought that a little peon like you didn't need to know why he was infiltrating the Division? But maybe you can prove me wrong. Why are you here?"

[BishounenNerd]

Cato had barely begun to walk in the direction he was headed when he heard a loud explosion in the distance. Something was amiss and him being by himself as he was he looked for a good place to hide. He wasn't well equipped to be taking on several Escarius Flux agents at once so he tried to look for a place to hide. The room was somewhat cluttered anyway. He noticed a crate in one corner of the room and hopped into it, trying his best to make it appear as though no one had been in the room recently.

[GamerKale]

"Be seeing you." Jiles shouted down the hallway at the man and pulled the trigger all the way back. The shots would be by no means accurate and at this range they'd probably just scatter to the point that none would hit the man, but then again they should completely fill the hallway so if enough of the ball bearings made it to the end of the hallway they would definitely hit something, but hitting the guy wasn't really the goal here, getting him to pull back around the corner, that was the goal. Jiles slammed a fist into either wall a few times, causing them to collapse a length of the tunnel. Well the actual damage wasn't that spectacular, but a little illusion here a dab of a crystalluxian shout here and it both looked and sounded like a much more effective barrier than it was.

"Ok, we need to hurry. Hayate you got us a heading? Hayate?" Jiles sighed as he looked at the mess that was Hayate. He hadn't realized how bad off the guy had been, assuming he was just stunned before. "Fantastic. Make sure he's stable enough to move Josh." He pulled the gps map watch thing off the thief's wrist and studied it as he tried the radio a few times and held the shotgun just barely over the side of the wall and fired periodically, discouraging any attempts at approaching that might have otherwise happened. "Ms. Tall dark and scary, you there? Anybody there?" No answer. "Looks like we've got 7-2. But they're suited and the flop looks promising." We're not that far from an actual subway tunnel, and it looks like we're pretty close to grand central, all of these explosions should have tripped a few of the city's sensors so the trains shouldn't be running. Might get picked up by the police, but that's manageable given I can just disguise us against them. Let's see what Monet got me for Christmas. He opened a pocket of his bag and withdrew a few red and black striped shotgun shells. "Books hold power, don't let anybody tell you different." He loaded the shells in the now empty shotgun and fired upwards several times in rapid succession. Magical flames carved a hole in the tunnel. Jiles tied the rope around Quartz, the girl, Hayate, and both of the Juveniles. "Its at a bit of an angle. We fly up there, wedge ourselves in and then use our strength to get Quartz up there with us and then climb up the rest of the way, It should let us out into a service tunnel for the subway itself." I'm glad I don't need to worry about paying for all of the damage our little adventure has caused.
