Though tears had begin to fall and his eyes had become puffy when he started driving, by the time Anthony arrived at his house, his cheeks were dry and he had assumed a calm, stoic expression. He disappears into his house for a few minutes before emerging in the backyard, laden with a large bucket of various meats. He stands before a field of tall, golden grass and says quietly, \"Sue, Echo, Cassidy.\" Not a minute goes by before the three tigers appear, their muscular bodies silently exiting the field and sitting in front of Anthony. They focus their gazes on the bucket holding their meal and give quiet, impatient growls. Anthony dumps the bucket out onto the ground, causing the tigers to jump to their feet. Still waiting for Anthony's permission, they rake the soil with their claws and crouch low to the ground. A simple nod from Anthony is the only order needed before all three felines pounce on the raw meat and begin to feast with gusto. Anthony leaves the tigers to their meal and carries the bucket inside before washing his hands in the master bathroom. Once he's cleaned up, Anthony stands in front of the bookcase next to his bed and examines it for a moment, lost in thought. The bookcase has three shelves, the one closest to the floor having the most books, the middle shelf having a handful, and the uppermost having but three books. Each book has two or three letters written in small print underneath the title. Having come to a decision, Anthony chooses a book from the top shelf, marked with the letters,*SC*, and moves it to the middle shelf. He strips down to his boxers, then lays in bed while making a brief phone call. Once the recipient of his call answers, Anthony says, \"We're meeting tomorrow.

Her graduation turned a new page in life for her, challenging her capabilities as an independent adult and superhero. With great power came great responsibility, a word of advice \"With Freedom, Came Control\" from the Dark Knight himself, his choice of words still floating around her mind.\n\nWhat not many people did not realize after Sue's departure of the Academy, she was actually called to, from Professor X. A debriefing was needed, a short almost-introduction of how the game of superhero works. Sure, the Academy taught you how to be a superhero, and though Sue was exceptional for having the heart, mind and power of one, she was still out of the loop when it came to what you needed to do. Police scanners, daily patrols, building relations, alliances, betrayals, and ultimately, the willing to do what is right, for the people, with great consideration of all risks and minimizing losses. Sure, Sue had the heart to do it, but whether she was willing to make sacrifices and losses were something you could never learn in the Academy. That included, putting it in a harsh sense, \"removing loose ends.\" In a positive side, to Sue, it meant protecting your loved ones by not having them involved. She didn't have that many people close with her; her father was a superhero already and he kicked ass, the mother ceased to exist long ago...\n\nAll that left... was Anthony...\n\nShe loved him... Her man, a Luthor, was still vulnerable, and she could never live with herself if anything ever happened to him... but she knew what she had to do to make sure he was safe.\n\n**Anthony**\n\nThough Anthony had inferred from various clues that Sue was graduating, it didn't feel real until everyone's favourite redhead mounted the stage to give her graduation speech. Then, it hit him. A wave of emotions, breaking through the mental walls he usually had built up, robbing him of all logic. The emotions? First, indignation, that the staff had deemed anyone more worthy of an early graduation than himself. Secondly, curiosity as he wondered exactly why Sue was graduating so much sooner than the other students near her age. Then, anger as he realizes that Sue would most likely be leaving him to pursue her career as a hero. The last emotion he felt was the one that disappointed him the most. Sadness, as he realizes that Sue would most likely be leaving him to pursue her career as a hero. From early on in his childhood, Anthony had been taught that emotional bonds were dangerous and make you vulnerable. Now, the one time he ignored that rule and listened to his heart, he was being abandoned by the one person he had ever loved, and the pain it caused him was beyond description. To protect himself from the soul-tearing despair, his subconscious causes him to begin producing the emotion cancelling pheromones, but instead of injecting them into the air around him, they simply course through his bloodstream.\n\nWhat seems to be mere moments later, Sue has disappeared and Anthony is rapidly approaching his home. Just as he pulls into his driveway, Anthony hears a sonic boom. Paranoia takes hold of him, forcing him to rapidly exit his car and turn his eyes to the sky, wondering which of his enemies had finally grown the balls to launch an aerial attack against his home. Instead of an enemy aircraft, however, he is greeted by the familiar form of Sue flying through the air. The pheromones, which had made their way out of his bloodstream, soon return in full force as Echo lands in front of him. A one word, monotone greeting exits Anthony's lips without permission as he looks down at Sue, \"Hello.\"\n\n**Sue**\n\nGod he was beautiful. She could never forget the one night they'd spent together under the moonlight having their picnic. She'd slept with him, and only that. It was all they did, and yet it had then been the first sign of what was going to be the greatest thing the two could ever forge; a relationship so formidable in loyalty and interdependence, that nothing in the world could destroy it.\n\nIt hurt to have this place as quite potentially the last place they'd ever be \"normal\" ever again, that they'd ever quite see each other ever again, that they'd be \"alright\" from now on.\n\nThe light lit his features so well, that handsome face that she'd harassed and had the privilege of having close to her face, to her lips, to her heart and soul, a kiss symbolic of the greatest feeling in the world nothing could ever replicate.\n\nShe raised her hands, preparing her speech before her signing began:\n\n*\"Hello, Luthorboy. I know you're… emotional… and I'm sorry that I caused it. \n\nPlease understand where I am! This is what we all wanted to be, to save the world and its people. Come to think of it, even if you had graduated with me, surely this…\n\nOur love…\n\nWe cannot risk it. We're not indestructible or immortal. Our love may be, but our bodies are not. I can't live with myself knowing that while I am out there saving the world, villains will be going after you as my weak point. \n\nI'm not tying up loose ends, my dear… I..\n\nI'm going to leave you, because I love you.\"*\n\nShe started to tear up, her eyes pouring with tears, but she refused to cave in for a sublime comfort. No, she had to be strong. She was a hero now, and she had to show the world she could do it. She was doing this for him.\n\n**Anthony**\n\nAnthony looks at Sue, his gaze as cold as void of space itself, as he replies in a deathly quiet voice, \"I'm your weak point? Sue, my dear, If you think I've no enemies, you're gravely mistaken. I have survived no less than seven attempts on my life in less than twenty-two years, yet you call me a weak link? I've seen and done darker, harder things than some people will in their entire, miserable existences. I am far from weak, my love, and though you're right in saying we're neither immortal nor invulnerable, I've no doubt that I can achieve both. Lastly, you don't abandon someone you love. You stick with them for better or for worse, richer or poorer, in sickness and in health, until death rips you apart. I love you Sue Cassidy, and although it's obvious my feelings aren't reciprocated, I won't hold that against you. I wish you luck and leave with you a small bit of advice.\"\n\nAnthony steps forward, cutting off the restricting pheromones, and kisses Sue's forehead. He looks her in the eyes, his gaze pronouncing his love for her more than his words ever could, then whispers, \"Don't force me to think of you as an enemy.\" With that ominous farewell lingering in the air, Anthony turns and walks into his home, leaving Sue behind.\n\n**Sue**\n\nJust before the clasping of her hands which would propel her to the skies in return to her duties, a quick text message:\n\n*\"I'll never be your enemy. \n\nYou'll always be Luthorboy to me\"*\n\nWith no reply message, she flew off, the night sky as cold as ice, but the warmth of his kiss lingered on forever.\n\n(The Collaborated Work of Knight125 and Dioxide)", "username": "knight125", "char_name": null }, { "text": "Ryan looked at her shocked for a second.\n\n\"Yes we are close to gods.

It of course is not the perfect selection but I know it is what is true to me.\"\n\nClearing her throat Nacelle stands pridefully with the voice of a queen accompanying her words. \"First of all, I believe in a team of great power, but I also believe in a team that stands by the gracious term of brains over brawn, with that I can assure the smarts of my team in a situation, and know that they will not simply charge.

It is true that my opinion of him is like that of a scale, continuously tipping at every point.\" Nacelle nodded towards him officially, her smile registered into a small. innocent smirk.\n\n\"Now we move onto who I would choose as a leader of this grateful team. My first pick, would be to just choose a muscle man, or someone that is a friend as everyone else has.

I would suggest that our leader would be one who was reliable, calm, simple. But all in all, what they have to have, is the ability to choose life or death.

Whatever has happened, his father was busy. He could even be with the teachers. Connor surveyed the damage, and wondered, briefly, if he would get in trouble for the massive hole in the wall. He looked over at it, studying it for a moment to make sure it wasn't going to collapse, and then surveyed the rest of the damage. Once making sure everything was okay, and there weren't too many seriously injured students, he began to round up any of magnetos men that they had stopped. Then and only then did he remove his suit, but activated its autopilot mode, instructing Ignot to watch the prisoners, as he began to look for his friends and classmates, trying to see if any were injuried or missing.\n\nHe found himself leaning against a wall when he was done, a mixture of emotions flooding through him. He had always known something like this might happen one day. He just felt like he should know what to do, where he belonged. Did he always need someone to tell him what to do, to have that sense of belonging?\n\nKijani wasn't just someone though. Had everything she had gone through made the path for this choice? He didn't know, but suspected yes. Undervalued and mistreated for a lot of her life, Connor could see how Magneto might be an interesting choice. Maybe his opinion of her wasn't enough. His hands curled into fists, and he cursed her parents, her grandmother and anyone else that had made her feel worthless.\n\nWhat was he meant to do?\n\n---\n\nPhoebe vainly looked for Nicholas without much hope, she found a little bit of time to send a message to her mother, knowing the plants would get it to her, and then headed to her room.

She figured if she was going to help fight magneto, then she needed to look the part of a hero.\n\nHero. Had she finally decided then, to be a hero?\n\nIt didn't matter know. She changed into it, pleased at the fit. It was a green leotard, and brown mask. Logjt green and dark mingled together, and she wove vines over her body, slipping in some Devils snare as well. For the first time, she actually felt like she for her alias. Had she learned enough to do well? She was competent in her fighting, yes. Was she ready?\n\nMaybe. But something had driven the teachers away, and Magneto had sort to harm the academy, and sort to harm humans and the world. She couldn't sit by and watch that. If she got in trouble, whether from her own lack of experience, or from either of her parents, she would live with the consequences.

Kat suddenly ran towards the wall, jumping up and using a foot hold to push her higher. Grabbing a hand hold she reached for one above but felt her fingers slip past as it slid away back into the wall. Quickly finding at least one foot hold she then managed to find a hand hold lower and then held tight as she waited for the inevitable force of gravity.\n\nThankfully no more disappeared and she was able to stay on the wall - still a fair distance up despite her misfortune. Kat only laughed aloud as she turned her eyes up and began climbing before she fell any further. The rest of the ascent was uneventful but when she reached the top she looked down with a grin. She wasn't the only to just jump down but she was in a nice position of knowing the floor would take more damage than her.

At one point she was stuck balancing on one hold, a skill that surprised her more than anything. She must have practiced or something in the past because when it happened she knew what to do. But that didn't quite translate so well later on. Losing her grip she tumbled. Her first instinct was to place her hands anywhere on the wall.

Mostly everyone's helpful\" she said brightly.\n\nIt surprised her when Flood joined them. She hadn't had too many interactions with Flood and she tensed when he asked about Nicholas. Why would he asked her about him? \"Um. I imagine he's okay. He was in gym so I assume he's fine. I hVent talked to him since yesterday's events\" no need to mention she thought he was failing her.

Phoebe was very excited to greet Nicholas and it seemed safe by their interactions to assume that at the very least, they were attracted to each other. She was very aware that she was the third wheel, by her own mind's doing rather than her new companion's. Could she call Phoebe that already? She hoped so, if nothing else she hoped to be regarded as an acquaintance.\n\nSomeone new sat down beside Phoebe, he seemed to make her a bit uneasy. Her tone changed when she talked to him, but she was still polite and friendly. The boy that had just sat down and begun to talk to Phoebe quickly changed trains of thought in the conversation and introduced himself to Makoto. She thought that Flood was an odd name but he may not have wanted to give his real one. She was in no position to judge since she herself was going to be doing the same.\n\n\"My name is Gale.\" Makoto said, smiling sheepishly. She was still young and had yet to get accustomed to boys. She could barely forge a friendship with a girl when her mom was alive, much less with a boy. Makoto wondered why the boy chose Flood as his name, if in fact he had chosen the name for himself.

Meaning what she said, smiling at the intended pun. \"Maybe you could teach me then? How to learn how to control powers?\" Makoto asked the group, but it was more pointed at Flood. Weird or odd never seemed to bother her. She had thought herself to be an outsider long before her powers came to be and despite how bad she had wanted to be normal; to have a normal family. Makoto's meek smile dimmed and her eyes clouded over, her mind leaving the current social situation and being absorbed in reliving the pain of her father's death and then her mother's. They were gone, how they left her alone in the world tormented her more than anything. They were by no means a shock, quick, or like taking off a band aid. It made her angry at her family and at life but more than anything it made her feel deep emotional pain, sadness, and a crushing sense of abandonment. Long before her parents died they had abandoned her, being absorbed in their own situations. Her dad had stuck around though.\n\nWisps of Makoto's hair began to float and pull apart from her head. She had tried to pull her hair back in a braid in case this happened again. She had left her backpack, hat and coat in her new room after all.\n\nMakoto revisited the social workers coming to her house and how terrified it made her, how angry it made her, how it made everything real. People sitting close by would be able to feel the static and dryness of the air now, despite the cooking areas. Then there was Storm, she came to help Makoto. She suddenly realized that she had yet to answer Phoebe's questions. Trying to push the memories from her mind she focused on the current situation. Both scared and surprised of how her powers seemed to be forming, she tried to ignore how they were acting right now. Trying to flatten her hair, she continued.\n\n\"Umm, to answer your questions Phoebe; yes Gale has to do with my powers.\" The word felt weird coming from her mouth and not staying in her thoughts. She still wasn't sure if they were a gift or a curse. \"Storm is... we just met but she has encouraged me a lot. Her and some of her friends? Coworkers? Teammates? Anyway, they picked me up from my hometown. They saved me from a blue woman and brought me here.\" Makoto tried to move quickly through the story so not to dwell on it.

Uncomfortable. She sighed softly and said, \"if you ever want to talk, I'm happy to listen\" she smiled friendly, and left it at that. \"Well then.

Unless that was part of his ... insanity, for lack of a better word. \"Why don't we all go get food now, like Phoebe suggested?\" Makoto asked the group, hoping that a potential disagreement may be avoided.

It seemed to be a usual thing that the other classmates at the school gave him plenty of room. Makoto thought it sad but she had a feeling it was for good reason. Still, she always gave the benefit of the doubt until proven wrong. \n\n\"Would you want to sit with Flood today?\" she asked, trying to make sure that Phoebe was alright with sitting at the same table as Flood so early in the morning. \"It seems like there is lots of room for us.\" she added, sheepishly.", "username": "Hidden Lilly", "char_name": "Makoto まこと (Gale) Izumi" }, { "text": "\"Interesting book you are reading.\" A voice spoke up next to Kat belonging to a young man whom had already taken a nearby seat.

Fortunately there seemed to be towels in the change-room and a dryer. Makoto guessed it was for drying off the towels or clothing form after a workout. Kathrin so kindly put Makoto's clothes in the dryer when she was in the shower and for a time, since Makoto finished her quick shower just after the lock-down was invoked, and the two girls sat there killing time.

Often the school has no problem dealing with these situations and the school faculty decides on what happens to the students for their behaviour. Sue was one of the few cases where a power of such magnitude coupled haphazardly with its volatility where the school had a serious decision to make, one that paled in comparison to the pettiest of issues.\n\nEsuterura was another.\n\nThe damage was negligible, and the students could be controlled easily with strict reminders of discipline and avoidance, the emotional and traumatic impact recoverable. The only problem was that they were not dealing with a student; but a stranger from another planet.\n\nThe entire faculty had just handled an issue with Sue's sonic boom and then came another. The work of the teachers never stops.\n\nMany of the heroes that could fly did, and surveyed the sky and the atmosphere for accessible information for course of direction, possible damage and all other relevant information. They also monitored the ground from above to move and control the students away from the crater, reminding them that school was dismissed for the rest of the day.

She does not know our language, Clark,\" J'onn spoke in his deep voice, watching Esuterura intently.\n\nSo Superman repeated her message, hoping that he made it clear to her.

Not only was this the office where Batman made the decisions about the Academy, but it was also where he met with some of the other most important men and women of the metahuman community. Anthony sits on a chair and unclasps a few hardly noticeable latches on his dress shoes, and slid a thin layer off the bottom. Inside the hollow, hidden compartments of his shoes, Anthony pulls out a device that appears to be a pen, a bag of graphite powder, a small brush, and a very pale, lifelike, collapsible model of a human hand. With his tools in hand, Anthony enters Batman's office, secure in the fact that there wouldn't be any security cameras. After all, why take the risk that someone would be able to hack into the video feed, and see the private meetings? Anthony sets his tools on Batman's desk and scans the room for a moment, wondering how much he could take without it being missed. He opens the bag of graphite powders and sprinkles some over the white keys of Bruce's computer, then gently uses the brush to move any excess powder onto the desk. Anthony uses his phone to take a picture of the fingerprints that appear on the keyboard, which his phone then analyzes to determine which prints belong to Bruce's right hand. He plugs the phone into the model of a hand, whose surface comes alive as it mimics both Bruce's fingerprints and approximate skin tone. Anthony places the hand on the security scanner of Bruce's safe, which whirs for a moment before popping open. To prevent himself from forgetting to cover his tracks, Anthony presses the top of the pen-like device, which turns out to be a miniature vacuum. He methodically sucks up all trace of the graphite powder, then returns all of his tools to their place in his shoes. Anthony pulls a pair of gloves out of his pocket and slips them on before leafing through the documents contained within the safe.
