((OOC: Shit...did I say Chrome?...ARGLE BARGLE!...that was his old name. Sorry, folks. For future reference, the name is Mettle. I coulda sworn I put Mettle as the name in the profile...::grumble:: I'll edit the profile and make it Mettle. Thanks for pointing that out, SAAM!))

Ooc: No problem... But I think Chrome sounds cooler.

((OOC: I do, too. But Mettle was his name after he made the transition from good guy to bad guy in the RP. As such, I'm using that name (Mettle) to show his mental instability. It's just easier for ME to adjust to, really. ))

OOC: I am still in this! I'm just too busy to post right now!

Kevin hadn't expected to get discovered so quickly, and he really didn't feel like talking to this metahuman. "I just wanted to see what was going on, but it was nothing. See ya." With that, Kevin hopped backwards into a portal, disappearing.

OOC: *Pst*, Shade is right there...

The sirens and flashing lights were making Zinx nervous. He didn't need anyone noticing he was here. He hated being noticed. He hated being questioned. That's why he rarely bothered to show up for school, or even fake a transcript. He especially hated being questioned on why he broke into places. He thought this area might be quiter then the last but apparently he was wrong.

So he decided to leave but how? He couldn't just walk out the front and he certaintly couldn't jump out the window. He would need tools. He closed out the drawing he was doing on Photoshop and began to search his ROMs hoping for some kind of inspiration. He didn't feel like claiming a grappling hook again and the sirens were getting closer. His father or someone might have put out a missing person's search so that was one more reason not to be seen. His eyes scanned through the folder labeled PS2 and he was hit by inspiration. He peeled down his right glove revealing the gem hidden there. "Do your work." He said to the gem.

He didn't know why he talked to them. It was just a method to confirm they're exsistance. He decided to think about it later as he watched the cord slink into his laptop it returned with two objects the stealth chip from MGS and Batman's grappling hook device. He held the chip in one hand allwoing it to work its magic. He loved the feeling when he used these "Toys." He took a deep breath and opened the window and shot the grappling hook into the building opposite him. He swung out letting the feeling overwhelm and letting out a woot. Then he hit the wall. "Owwww" he grunted as he let go of the cable and watched it disapear. He checked to make the sure the stealth chip was working and he hadn't lost any of his stuff before moving on.

After Kevin went through his portal Shade immediatly warped to the wall of that building. Not wanting to be discovered quite yet.

OOC: Sorry that i'm a bit late but you'll have to edit your post, Sithdarth.

As Kevin jumped back into a portal Hunter noticed that his shadow lost shape and went up the wall of a nearby building. Now that is not right at all, he thought. Then he shot is mircowave pain beam at the entire side of the building. If it's alive then that should stun it.

edit: Makes more sense here.

OOC: wait, up the wall? we're on a rooftop. And if Shade is in the shadow of something (Kevin), he can teleport to any other shadow within a one mile radius (one side of the building is in shadow). So right before Kevin went through, Shade went to the side of the building.

Sparks had been walking down the street, muching on his sandwich. Sure, it was late, but he knew a REALLY good restaurant that was open 24/7, and the owner was nice enough to give free handouts to University Students. God bless that man...So, anyways, Sparks had just been walking down the street, minding his own business, eating his toasted chicken club.

And suddenly there's all this cops in his way. He could just learn about it on the morning news, true. But he was also curious. Luckily however, common sense prevailed to an extent. He tried cutting around where he thought it was blockaded. When something exploded, he decided it might be a good idea to generally avoid the entire area.

A little while later, there was ANOTHER explosion. Suffice to say, this was interesting. And not boding well. Sparks voted with himself, and decided to go to a rooftop to find out what was happening.

He found a ladder, and made sure it was solid iron. Now, he strained himself as he set up a negative charge at the top of the ladder. In his own hands, he created a positive charge, and just to make good, he charged the ladder slightly.

The magnet effect pulled him up the ladder faster than he could've climbed, and he was quickly on top of the building. From the other side, there was a light that could not have been from a lamp. And the shadows in front of him seemed to just shift.

So he yelped, and fired a quick charge at the wall. Then something hit him from behind. He didn't know what, but he just found himself in extreme ammounts of pain. He collapsed onto his hands, and breathed deep, trying to figure out what the heck had just hit him.

OOC: That was Sith's little blast thing. And I'm assuming you got a bit intent on the shadow, and aren't used to your powers enough, thus neglecting to notice Sparks.
