open The Circulation

[Glaceon 793]

Jason appeared by the sidewalk of the street where Misha had previously arrived. He could tell Misha was here, for the mud on the sidewalk was around the same size as Misha's foot and there was no muddy areas around. Jason was quite sure that this mud was from where he teleported from. It was not his for he had not technically stepped on the sidewalk yet since he was teleported at an odd angle. 

Jason quickly stood up and fixed himself. He made sure his clothes looked presentable; though they had been stained by mud and water. He also switched the magazine of his handgun for a fresh one. He counted a total of 34 rounds, 10 in the old magazine and 12 in both unused ones.
He walked past the street when he noticed the damaged walls and destroyed cars. "Definitely trouble." He mumbled to himself as he scanned the area. The area was littered with metallic debris and several 'spikes' of metal.

 

The audio from his earpiece which was connected to his phone got his interest. Apparently Sayaa had taken the phone with her. Though the video is dark due to her probably having the phone in a pocket. After a few button presses on his watch, Jason was able to enable the GPS tracker. Once again, this should be completely unnoticeable to anyone not actively looking for it.

Jason followed the trail of metallic destruction which lead to what appeared to be a very high-end apartment. As he neared he easily spotted Misha's sword and an mp443 handgun; the metal of both weapons glistered under one of the nearby lights. "A foreign pistol. Looks like Misha is here. No body. He is probablly still around." Jason collected both weapons and entered the building. 

He quietly made his way past the security cameras and found the security booth. Thankfully there seemed to be no current occupant of said booth. After going through several of the files on the computer terminal, Jason found a transaction record for the rent of the penthouse apartment to an unspecified rentee. Jason knew this was most probably Misha and his group. Jason quickly searched the computer for a blueprint of the building, and after several minutes of studying the blueprint he made his way upstairs, temporarily disabling certain security cameras on a specific timer and cutting the lights outside the penthouse elevator.

Jason timed it so that only one or two cameras would be deactivated at a time, which would cause less suspicion than a total blackout. 
He took the elevator to the penthouse level and hid in the shadows of the now dark hallway; waiting to see if anyone would investigate.

Shane carefully considered Sayaa's demands. Should he indeed get in the car once more, and venture back to a group of crazy people? Or should he just use his pizzaboard and fly away to a safer place. Maybe settle down in his ferrari and order some fried chicken... NO. The world needed him. Shane, now overflowing with confidence, marched right up to Misha's car and dived through the window (which was already rolled down from when Shane was waiting for Misha and Sayaa earlier). "PUNCH IT, SMALL CHILD." Shane demanded from Sayaa.




 

Magically taking control of the steering wheel and pedals, (cant trust little girls to drive, am I right?), Shane sped off valiantly towards the apartment. When Shane got there he leaped out of the same car window, leaving Sayaa in the driver's seat. Rising up from the depths of the elevator shaft, Shane glanced around the apartment floor. Wait... who could this possibly be? Shane noticed what seemed to be the shadow of the same terrorist police man he met earlier that day. Carefully, Shane prepared his utility pizza box, opening it for the first time in a long time. Shane then spoke to the man, "Yo you want some of this pizza? Its pepperoni."

Jason approached the door when he heard the elevator behind him close and begin to descend to the bottom floor. He knew that the elevators in this building only move when called and so he quickly thought of a plan. Taking a look at his watch Jason noticed that his phone had arrived in the road in front of the building. Jason quickly put the pieces together and knew that Sayaa or the pizza boy were here and so he quickly readied a plan. Jason quickly assembled his jacket and Misha's sword. He propped the sword up against the wall and put his jacket around it followed by his watch on the floor and turned the brightness of the screen to the highest setting. Jason fixed it in such a way from the door of the elevator that it looks like he was crouching looking at the readings of his watch. Though if you would approach close enough the ploy would be obvious.
Jason then took up his position by the corner of the ceiling next to the elevator doors.

Soon enough someone did appear from the elevator and fell for his diversion. Jason silently dropped down and approached Shane from behind. Jason assumed Shane had some sort of weapon or magic that worked with the pizza box and so he made his move.
Jason quickly begun his attempt at disarming Shane by attempting flicking the pizza box away with one hand, and producing his knife with the other. Jason then brought his knife to Shane's throat. "I do enjoy pizza, but this is not the place. Now, I need you to be quiet. I do not intend on hurting anyone, but I will take action if I have too." Jason whispered.

"Why are you still here?" Sayaa says, teleporting into the elevator. She gives very little cares about the situation. "Honestly, everytime I see you you're holding a friend of mine at gun point. And this one offered you pizza. Jeez man." She presses all the buttons and closes the door. "Chances are, they already know you're here." She points to the now-disabled security camera. "Come on man."

The world seemed to grind to a halt. Shane considered slowly and carefully what had just occurred. Did this vicious policeman have the AUDACITY to not only turn down the sacred peace offering of a pizza slice, but to throw it on the ground! This would not stand. Shane unleashed a blaze of righteous magical fury on the hilt of the knife, making it hotter than a thousand pizza ovens. Shane then attempted a kick to the shins of the ISIS policeman from hell. "That'll be about $3.50."

Nora thought about Hikari when she teleported in bursts out of Novarius. "That wind esper sounded so confident but she didn't even leave a scratch on me.." She spoke to herself. "I should get back before they catch up.." Nora started teleporting faster and faster up and towards the base located out of Arconium and towards Axoana. There is a hidden base located within the canyons of the great desert, off the radar from satellites and almost impossible to spot.

 

Nora started building up speed as she teleported, and after a few minutes, she was traveling through the skies at the rate of a jet. The key the tied onto a strong rope and around her neck. "That was way too easy. I might even thank her for letting me take it without a decent fight." She laughed afterwards as she started approaching the base. Nora dropped straight down a gap and before she hit the ground, she teleported right above ground to prevent herself from breaking her legs. "That was a close one." She said as she tried to recover from all that teleporting.

 

Her balance was a bit off but she managed to get through the front door of the base. Security was tight, and there was at least 12 heavily armed mercenaries standing guard. One of them welcomed her back, but was ignored due to the slight headache. Nora headed towards the office where her master was, sitting comfortably with his two legs resting on his desk in a laid back position. "Yes dear?" He said lovingly. "The key is right here, so where's my reward?" She questioned him. "Don't worry, sweetheart. They're right here.." He replied as he tossed a long briefcase on his desk and opened it, revealing two magically-enchanted blades that amplifies damage. It also had a lightning enchantment to it. The lightning that comes out of the blades will not damage the holder of the weapon, which recognizes the owner by the first person who touches it until they either die or if someone breaks the enchantment.

 

"It's beautiful, is it not?" He questioned Nora with a smile. "The power embedded into this blade isn't something you play around with, Nora. Take good care of them." He finished before turning around on this chair and looked through the glass pane overlooking a huge research lab with all sorts of projects in progress, including the God's Hand. "It shall be mine." He told himself.

 

The teleporter took the two blades out of the container and swung it around before disappearing into thin air, reappearing on the very top. "I could feel the power surging through my body.." She said as she swung her blade, sending bolts of lightning in the general direction. Nora felt undefeatable for a second before she suddenly felt a shift in power within her body. It was because the blade infused a huge chunk of mana into her body and as an esper, it was a bit hard to get used to and use. "Ouch.." She said as she sheathed the two blades and started teleporting to the closest town, Xevera.

Misha awoke from his light slumber with a grumble. He heard a rather decent amount of commotion outside now. After a few fits of irritated tossing and turning on his couch he finally got up. Misha looked down and saw his current casual clothes with a frown once more. With a sigh he pulled out his phone and made a quick call to someone before putting it back and walking over to the door. He opened it slightly and peered outside. He stared for a few seconds, not having much of a reaction before he simply just casually threw a small ball of light into the room and closed the door. After a few seconds it blew up loudly and would temporary blind everyone in the room if they didn't cover their eyes. Working like a flashbang. Misha quickly opened the door and gave a running punch to Jason to knock him out. All Misha's time fighting hand to hand made this rather easy with the distraction.

 

Afterwards Misha sighed and ran his hand through his head. "I just wanted to sleep... I don't usually get to sleep." He said, mostly to himself before he picked up Jason's body and walked back into the room without really saying anything to Sayaa or Shane. He rather lazily bound his body to a chair before he patted him on the head and commented. "Sleep tight." Misha walked over and collapsed in his own couch a few feet away after collective his own weapons from the hallway.

Shocked out of his uncharacteristic fit of righteous indignation by Misha's interruption, Shane calmed himself down. "Well if that aint fookey bookey," Shane muttered to himself as he fumbled his way into the apartment. Once inside, he collapsed on the floor in front some redhead dude.

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

"Hey, no fair! I was supposed to have the floor..." She sighs, "Never mind..." She pulls out a paper tag and places it on the wall, "If there's an emergency, just touch the paper. Please don't let it burn." With that, she touched the paper and seemed to pull into it. Her name in characters appeared on the tag, which glew faintly with a lightish green and purple lava-lamp like aura.

[Azura 1,107]

Time flew past as everyone was asleep. Hours go by and soon after, the moon faded behind the mountains as the sun started rising from the opposite side, shining directly at the apartment and through the windows.

 

Hikari woke up early since she couldn't sleep well from what happened yesterday. The very thought of that girl stealing the key just makes her feel like tearing her apart, but being enraged first thing in the morning about things that happened in the past was pointless, so she woke up and walked out of the room.

 

She saw Misha and Shane asleep, but she ignored it and decided to go back into her room and headed into the bathroom conveniently located within her room.

[Chickey 383]

Misha heard some movement and awoke from his light sleep. He groaned as he got up and walked to the kitchen. After a few minutes he returned with a fresh cup of tea to wake up after sleeping. He took a few sips and then remembered his phone call from last night. He went to the front door and opened it. In the hallway stood a large ornate mostly gold dresser. He used magic to lug the thing inside over by a wall close to his chair. Afterwards he took a sip of his tea before he pulled out an assortment of clothes from it and walked into a empty bathroom and changed out of his casual clothes he found around the house.

 

Misha walked out later still wearing his one gold ring ear piercing on his left ear, gold chain necklace under his shirt, and his large gold ring on his right ring finger. However he now wore: A navy double breasted silk blend suit and slim matching pants with two gold buttons on each side, but only buttoned the bottom two, a light lavender pink dress shirt with the collar area buttons unfastened, gold wristwatch timepiece on his left arm, black crocodile skin belt with gold buckle, and lastly black exotic pointed toe cap alligator skin cowboy boots. Though not visible, he wore silk gold boxers and lavender pink dress socks underneath his clothes.

 

Misha walked back over to his couch and sat down. He continued to sip on his tea and waited for people to wake up.

Hikari took a quick shower and brushed her teeth afterwards. She was rather quick with drying her hair, and without brushing her hair, she walked out of the bathroom with a somewhat dry set of hair, half naked after taking a shower. She quickly got dressed with the clothes that was in her bag, which was a t-shirt with a swirly vector on it which represented wind. It was multicolored like the rainbow with a white base color. Hikari hopped into a pair of new shorts and walked out of her room and saw Misha drinking coffee on the sofa. "Did I wake you up?" She asked in a casual tone.

[Chickey 383]

Misha took another sip of tea before he replied. "I suppose in a way you did. However I got enough hours in, I was bound to way up at the drop of a hat at this point."  He took another sip before he looked over. "Cool shirt." He commented afterwards. Misha wondered what exactly the group was going to do next, he hoped it would be entertaining at least.

[Octavia's Bow 2,035]

Sayaa's paper tag glowed and disintegrated into a paper mist. Sayaa leaned against the wall with a sigh, looking pretty tired. Her magic, both her lighting green and midnight purple were dripping off her body into her doll, swirling down into the wood work. And then, with a snap, what remained outside of her body rubber-banded back into her body. She yawned and stretched, waving at her companions. She headed to the shower and let all her illusions drop. She looked over her cloak and frowned, it being dirty. All of her things were covered in a thin layer of road dust. Sighing, she eyed her bared form in the mirror, going from sleep-strained eyes down to dirt-stained wrist. She sighed and got in the shower, watching the water change colors as it touches her. She begins to realize that this shower would be the first in a long while, and that she might be able to drop the smell illusion. Scrubbing herself down (And lamenting her under-average chest size) and washing her hair, she gets out and dries herself.She looks in the mirror and flushes a bit. That shower made her look almost exactly like her illusion normally did. Rifling through the cabinets, however, has a small amount of disappointment. Sticking her head out of the door, she asks, "Hikari, can you get over hear for a bit?"

[Azura 1,107]

Hikari looked over at Sayaa when she heard her name. "Sure, I'll be there in a sec!" She replied Sayaa and said "Thanks. It's one of my favorite t-shirts." To Misha before walking through the door into the room Sayaa is in. "How can I be of assistance, Sayaa?" Hikari said with a pleasant smile.

When Zeke awoke, the first thing he noticed was that his head pounded with an ache that could only be compared to a massive whiskey hangover. Somehow, during his sleep, he managed to worm his way out of his shirt and pants, but Zeke really didn't notice it. His medium length red hair was matted up in a few separate places due to his tossing and turning during the night. Zeke sat upright, his body was awake but his mind was still mostly asleep. His eyes were a bit dead with bags under them, and his body ached all over. So this is what it is like to overuse limit evolution, huh? Zeke thought. 

He stood up and walked out of his room with only one thing in his mind, and that was a cup of hot coffee. He slumped out in a half-dead state in nothing but his blue boxer-briefs. Zeke's average, almost slightly above average medium physique laid bare for the whole world to see from his dime sized pink nipples, to his chest that showed only just a bit of his abs through his flesh. For the most part, Zeke was hairless, he never had chest hair or back hair, but he did have a small trail of orange hair that lead from his navel down to his nether regions. All of this was on display as he made his way through the T.V. room to the kitchen to fetch the glorious cup of golden brown coffee. He was a trifle bit disappointed when he noticed the coffee pot hadn't been used yet. 

Still slumped over he turned his head to Misha while pointing at the coffee pot. 
"N-no coffee?", was about all that he could mutter. What he meant to say was How in the fuck do any of you make it through the day without morning coffee. But that would have taken too much effort, as did the thought of making a pot of coffee. But he decided to make the coffee anyway, mainly because he know that if he didn't make it, his day would be much worse. 

Zeke reached into a pantry and grabbed some Folger's, and a filter. Opened up the filter compartment, tossed the filter in, slapped two and a half scoops of Folger's into the filter, filled the pot up with water, lazily poured the water into the water divider, spilling water all over the granite countertops, closed the compartments, forced the pot back into its heater holder under the coffee spout and pushed the start button. Zeke just gazed with his dead expression at the pot while the coffee dripped down into it, the golden brown liquid pooling into the pot ever so slowly.

[Chickey 383]

Misha watched Hikari walk away with a now bored expression. This however subsided when he heard Zeke move over to the coffee pot. He gave a chuckle before he simply commented. "Tea is better." In a sing song like voice as he finished his tea and set the cup down on a table near him. "Nice boxers." He added, seeing it was the only piece of clothing Zeke had on to compliment, unlike Hikari.

"No Grandpappy no! Not the Pizza Paddle™!" Shane was haunted the whole night by ghosts of his pepperoni past. This onslaught of horrors was brought to Shane's consciousness due to that fookey bookey police man's absolute disregard for the slice of diplomacy.

 

Finally, however, Shane was brought to the light by a crimson haired savior. Shane had never been more grateful for anything in his life. Shane decided it was the least he could do to aid this glorious man in whatever quest he may have. "Hail Red Ranger! I must declare unto you my eternal gratitude, and also compliment you on your rocking bod."

 

However, before Shane could fully dedicate a thesis on how great this man of the blaze is, his attention was torn to Misha, one of the few people in the apartment of whom Shane knew by name. "Ayy lmao, its good to see you're not like dead or something lol" (Shane often says abbreviations out loud). Speaking of people Shane knows by name, he began to wonder the whereabouts of Sayaa. 

 

Completely forgetting his fascination with the red haired Adonis, Shane proposed his question to Señor Scarlet, "Yo, Elemental HERO Blaze-Man, where's the little girl dude? I Haven't seen her since I went on my pizza induced rampage last night." With that, Shane awaited the response of his Crimson Savior.

@@Chickey, 
Zeke looked down and then back up and then down again. He noticed that he was in his boxer briefs, but then thought about it for a second and shrugged with a, "meh." Zeke didn't really care if others saw him in his boxers. They were pretty much all living together now, so he figured something like this would happen at some point anyway.  And, in all honesty, he was too tired and had too big of a headache to care. 

He then heard someone he hadn't met before talk about an elemental hero. The scent of the Folger's that began to fill the apartment brought forth some clarity to Zeke, and realized the guy was talking to him. Zeke hadn't seen Sayaa, which he assumed was who this mystery man was talking about, since yesterday.

"Not sure, guy. Too tired. Need Folger's in a cup to have the best part of waking up." His nonsensical sentence was the best he could muster at this point.

Hikari looked over at Sayaa when she heard her name. "Sure, I'll be there in a sec!" She replied Sayaa and said "Thanks. It's one of my favorite t-shirts." To Misha before walking through the door into the room Sayaa is in. "How can I be of assistance, Sayaa?" Hikari said with a pleasant smile.

"Hikari, I need a huge favor from you." She looks her dead in the eyes and asks, "May I borrow your hair brush and deodorant? I kinda don't have either.... but I really need it. And a change of clothes. Until mine get washed. I've been covering up the traveling dust with magic..." She flushed with embarrassment, but hoped Hikari, as another girl, would understand the gravity of the situation.

[Azura 1,107]

She didn't really mind letting Sayaa use her hair brush. Cothes weren't really a problem since she has more than a few sets of clothing in her bag, but it was the deodorant. Hikari doesn't use deodorant since she believes that it blocks sweat glands and pores. What she does have though was perfume. "I could lend you my hair brush and a set of clean clothing but I don't have deodorant.. However, I do have perfume. It's better than nothing, right?" Hikari said.

(Very interesting view point)

 

Sayaa nods and adjusts the towel over her body a bit better. "I'll, umm... I'll be in here... You know... Until I can change." She closes the door and sits on her heels, a little cold from the exposure. While waiting, she played with a ball of magic, bouncing it between her hands.

[Azura 1,107]

"I'll be right back!" She said before running out of the bathroom, closing the door behind her and headed straight into her room, grabbing her bag and went straight back to Sayaa. Hikari placed down the bag on the floor, took out the perfume and placed on the table before saying "Here you go! Take whatever piece of clothing that tickles your fancy." Hikari finished with a wink.

Sayaa thanks hers and takes the bag. After taking the appropriate hygienically measures, she looked at her clothes options. She sighed at the lack of punkish choices, but shrugged. Considering her normal garb, this was much more normal and less likely to get her noticed. Which is a bonus for a pickpocket. She tossed on a purple shirt with a nice floral print, and some cargo pants. She also picked out a belt. (The pants were a bit big. Actually, she spent a good five minutes staring at herself after she put on the shirt, trying to make it look a bit tighter, as it could be mistaken for a dress.... she setled for tucking it in....) Stretching to untuck the shirt in compensation for readied movement, she left the bathroom and handed Hikari's bag back, thanking her. She had surprised herself in not stealing anything from the bag.

[Azura 1,107]

Hikari giggled in the inside when she saw how the clothing didn't really fit Sayaa, who looked like he was four years younger than her. She left the toilet and let Sayaa change in her own privacy. When she was done, she came out and handed the bag back to her. "You're welcome." Hikari replied before heading back into her room and tossed her bag beside her desk.
