THE SEQUEL TO UNCONTROLLABLE
PLOT
((following the events of Uncontrollable))
The prisoners have finally escaped island asylum by means of Lock's teleport, heading back to the mainland to see what they will do next, but what they find isn't what they expected. The earth isn't how they last saw it. Instead of the thriving, power driven society, that they knew, but rather a much different time, earth in 2014. Something has gone very wrong, and now the inmates are all in the wrong timeline. They must figure out how to get back to their world, and fast, as 2014 earth isn't quite expecting superpowers.....
USE YOUR PREVIOUS CHARACTER
New users please view the uncontrollable thread before joining here
YOU CAN MAKE CHARACTERS WHO ARE REGULAR PEOPLE NOW
Rules
are the same
((By Elephants4Ever))
I am a firm believer in that every roleplay can and should be turned into a novel. Therefore, I must set these restrictions:
1) No god-modding. This means no characters that can take over another character's mind/body.
2) No bunnying without permission. This means you can't take over another character's mind/body outside of roleplay, either, unless another RPer asks you to take their place for a little while.
3) NO, NO, NO MARY-SUES OR MARTY-STUES! PLEAAASE! I BEG YOU! SAVE YOUR PERFECT CHARACTERS WITH NO PERSONALITY FAULTS FOR ANOTHER THREAD!
4) Please write in third-person's point of view. Grammar is appreciated.
5) Anything outside of roleplay needs to be in double parenthesis, ((like this)). Because I'm cool like that.
6) Rules are subject to change as soon as I figure out more ways to exercise my tyrannical power as owner of this thread.
7) Applaud me for ingeniously inventing a scheme to figure out the spoiler alert things.
8) There is a three character per person limit. This may change later for somewhat selfish reasons. <((I am so not going to get rid of the dude with sunglasses that #8 turned into. XD))
9) If you want to kill someone, ask them first. This applies both for this roleplay and real life.
10) I consider powers which can only be triggered by a certain event or powers which happen spontaneously and without warning to count as uncontrollable.
11) And that reminds me... all characters who are created must have an uncontrollable power.
HAPPY RP-ING

LAUNCHED
The prisoners washed up on the beach, it was nighttime, and they were all tired. Lock led them up the coast into what seemed like a sleeping town. Lock lit up a fire on his palm as a light, looking for anything resembling a hotel...

Max shook his head. He had just done the most illogical, unscientific thing in his life... using chaos to boost order. He supposed it was the clashing forces working on the Warden that made his powers go haywire, allowing Lloyd to take control.
But now, Max's worst fears were realized... their uncontrollable powers were loose in civilization. He felt... different after that teleport, as if he had gone through more than just physical distance. His entropy felt... drained, somehow. He didn't feel that pressing urge to emit it. He had obtained full control of his powers.
But how? Why? What had just happened?
((Also, the logical explanation for this is the following: 1) Max's powers are basically a conduit for entropy that increases over time, 2) going back in time will always decrease entropy, and therefore 3) Max's entropy storage has less entropy and thus he can shut it off.))

Lori
-Before Launch-
Lori could feel the energy going into the explosion. Lori heard the booming noise of all the fire engulfing the prisoners and teleporting right before she blacked out.
Xylla
Xyl woke up. Huh... what happened. All I remember was a huge explosion. She tried to get up but she couldn't feel anything. Nothing. She tried again and raised herself to a sitting position. She saw sand. A beach. But when Xyl tried to hold the sand, she felt nothing. The familiar grittiness of the sand was gone. She was horrified. The consequence of having one sense that's too good...
Her sense of touch was compromised.

((Ought we to submit character forms for the twins?))
Vivian
Vivian nudged Victor and pointed toward a strange group. "Them. See them? We brought them with us. We need to stop doing that."
"How do you know that?" mumbled Victor.
"You think the people here can teleport? Or look like they've just walked out of a battle field? Or are morbidly afraid of water?"
It was true, one of them had leaped up as soon as she discovered they were on a beach and scrambled away from the waves.
"Okay. So do you think we ought to go explaining the situation?"
"I don't know. You're better at making those kinds of decisions."
"Well, come on, then. Let's go. But we're telling them it's your fault." Victor started walking. Vivian squealed and ran after him.
"Hey! This is probably just as much your fault as mine!"
When they reached the group, Vivian immediately prodded the one with the flames. "Put it out! We don't know if they have magic here yet!"

Max
Max noticed Lock beside him.
"Lock? Do you have any idea where we are: where did you target our teleport? My entropy feels... more controlled, somehow. I suppose that's Lloyd's doing."
He then looked up and noticed a strange girl.
"Um, sorry? Who are you?"

"That's the thing. You never really know where you pop up. This could be Earth. Then it would be my fault. If it's not Earth, then it's Victor's fault. But there are rules to this. No superpowers until we find out if the locals have them, got it?"

Xylla
Xyl was overhearing the conversation between Lock, Max, and the twins. Back in time or a different planet... that's what happened? Xyl decided that the first choice was more plausible. She tried to stand up again but collapsed on her back. She didn't feel the impact though. The sudden motion that she saw while falling made her dizzy. Gah... so weak right now... She slipped into the depths of unconsciousness.

Max groaned. "If we went back in time, it would explain why my power feels so... good. Easy to control, I mean. But, it would make our situation even worse."
He got up and looked at the strange girl. "OK, who are you, and where are we?"

Vivian
"Technically, we could be back in time, or forward in time. On a different planet or in a different dimension. It can be difficult to find out, but it'll be one or two of those."
"Don't be so offhanded, Vivian. I don't think they've ever experienced an inter-dimensional or inter-time shift before."
"They have now."
"Point taken. Anyways, what she means to say is that... well, we don't know."

Post by: Nitrox on March 10, 2014, 10:19:22 pm
"I expect it's back in time. Otherwise, my power would be totally out of control."
Lock looked at Max questioningly.
"Entropy increases over time, and whatever source I draw it from is smaller now. Therefore, we went back in time. At least, that's my deduction."
Lock sighed. "Or, you know, we could just ask."

((Here's their form))
Name: Vivian and Victor
Nickname (optional): Vivian Clockwork (Victor's is TBD)
Age: 13
Gender: F & M
How long they've been in the prison: N/A
Appearance: Vivian: (http://i60.tinypic.com/2qnxl39.jpg) Victor: (http://i58.tinypic.com/jh9fsw.jpg)
Bio: Vivian & Victor were at another establishment of the asylum before they accidentally transported themselves and everyone in the original setting of the roleplay into 2014. I'm going to say they were originally from a planet completely alien to our own and had to learn English.
Power (and explanation of why the character can't control it): Vivian has random effects on time. Sometimes things age (or de-age) in unnatural ways, or suddenly she and the people around her will find themselves in a different time period. Victor has inter-dimensional and long-distance travel, and can randomly teleport things.
Weaknesses (name at least three): Their powers affect them equally, so they'll always be in the same time and dimension. They have the habit of forgetting that others are there. They also accidentally draw attention to themselves a lot of times when they don't mean to.
Are you okay with your character potentially falling in love?: I'm fine with it...
Chibi (optional but encouraged): Above. ^^
Other (optional): Twins. If you didn't already know that.

"I've had enough" Lock said, "I'm going to find an open establishment and ask what year it is, o don't care how stupid it sounds" Lock walked off to the street, looking for lights that were on.

"Oh, dear. Time-natives never respond well to that. Just please don't tell them we're from the future, or the past, or another dimension. Please?"
Victor shook his head. "Surely he has at least that much sense. And we do need to know the year."
"How many tagalongs have ever had that much sense, Victor? How many?" And she ran after Lock to keep a careful eye on him.

Lock saw a 24\7 gas station and walked in. He walked up to the clerk at the counter, "Excuse me ma'am I know this is a strange question but what year is it?"
Title: Re: Unpinnable (PART 2)
Post by: Nitrox on March 10, 2014, 10:38:58 pm
"That's a possibility. If so, it's a younger dimension... but all of our questions will be answered when Lock gets back."

Random Gas Station Worker
"Um, excuse me, kid? Are you on drugs?" the lady asked. "Do I need to call the police? Where are your parents?"
Vivian stepped forward, crossing her fingers that her save would work in this dimension and time period. "Sorry, madame. But could you please just tell him? He's got a bet with Seth and he's got to get five people to tell him the year in the next hour or he'll lose a lot of... currency."
"The woman looked flustered. "Just get out of this gas station," she said. "And stop making stupid bets."
"We'll buy something, madame," Vivian assured her. "For your trouble."
The woman gave them a searching glance and then relaxed.
"It's twenty-fourteen," the lady laughed, giving them a curious stare. "You're a strange bunch, the two of you. Now, what will you be buying?"
But Vivian was already making a run for it, dragging Lock out the door. "Hurry!" she cried. "I've only got currency from revolutionary France, and this isn't it!"

"Give it a year, stick with us, and we'll eventually teleport to another random dimension or time," Vivian said. "And learn to roll with it. And try not to miss your family too much, because..." Vivian gave him a sad smile. "I haven't even seen our home dimension in five years. And I probably never will again. The chances are a million to one." She gave him a moment for this to sink in. "This one seems kind of sticky, though. We've been in it three times. Assuming it's the same one."

Post by: Iaashadow on March 10, 2014, 10:58:53 pm
Lock looked down a little thinking about his family, "Well the first thing we need to figure out is if the locals have powers or not, that's key, but how would we do that?

"Three ways. One, we ask. Two, we give an immensely powerful demonstration of our powers and see how they react. Three, wait and see. If they have magic, it'll likely be a part of their everyday lives."
She paused for a moment. "The eighteen hundreds didn't have it. And that's only two hundred years before now."

"Last time we mostly slept outside and hoped there was no rain," Vivian shrugged.
"Is there another option?" Mir asked. Someone in their group laughed.
"Not until we get currency. Or figure out what country we're in. I'd say great Britain or America is the most likely. Those were the two main English-speaking countries that concerned revolutionary France, anyways. I don't know what's changed in two hundred years."

((Pulled from the Comedy RP...))
Name: XXXXX Leraz (No one really knows his real name)
Nickname (optional): Ringo
Age: 16
Gender: Male
How long they've been in the prison: Approximately seven seconds
Appearance: He is tall-ish and slender, with slightly curly black hair and rectangular white glasses.
Bio: Ringo was to be a new arrival at the asylum, but upon arrival the prison was found deserted. The guards panicked and took the boat back to the mainland, completely forgetting about him, leaving him to wander around the asylum alone. He is quiet when first meeting people, but generally friendly and cracks quiet jokes.
Power (and explanation of why the character can't control it): Ringo is a time traveler. He can control it for the most part, but sudden and powerful emotion may cause him to jump around randomly. However, he cannot exist in the same time period twice- so he can't go back five minutes, because he already existed there. If he were to jump into the future, he would "disappear" and not return until unless he jumps back. He can revisit the times that he was non-existent in, though. Aging applies- he grows and is as old as the time he's been alive, not the amount of revolutions around the sun he's survived. As a result, he isn't too sure of how old he actually is, and 16 is a general number.
Weaknesses (name at least three): He can't bring other people through time with him, unless his conflicting emotions are particularly strong. Sometimes he is confused as to what time period he is in. Ringo has often gotten into heated debates with historians or teachers from various time periods over what really happened during some momentous events in history, as he was actually witnessing some, but he can't exactly tell that to some historians...He also hates history books (written by the victors). Lastly, Ringo might visit a time period, then come back in a couple of decades, and the people will see the giant age difference.
Are you okay with your character potentially falling in love?: Ok
Chibi (optional but encouraged): Hmmm...couldn't find the right hair...
Other (optional): He has his nickname due to an idolisation of Ringo Starr. Death in one time period means his body will stay there.

Ryker
When Ryker saw the flames, survival instinct kicked in and he automatically turned into a spoon. He saw Eona out of the corner of his eye melting into a shadow. Her power is getting stronger... Hisoka, however, didn't have anything to transform into, and he was soon engulfed by the flames. Ryker turned back into himself, with horror, but the flames dissipated as suddenly as they had appeared. There was no trace of Hisoka, and the shouts had faded away. Ryker whipped around, relieved to see Eona still there. "What happened?" he whispered.
Ringo
Ringo, slumped on the boat seat, stared at the waters around him. Woo-hoo, prison, here I come! he glumly thought sarcastically. Suddenly, Ringo felt an internal jolt, like he had just dropped a high distance. Someone- no, a large group by the feel of it- had just fallen through time.
-------Ten Minutes Later-------
"I'm outta here!" the driver yelled, rushing towards the boat.
"Le-le-lemme me on, too!" a guard shouted after him and the other tripping over himself to follow.
Ringo considered joining them, too, but the boat had already sped away. "Well, then," he muttered to himself. "Looks like it's just me." He wandered around the prison, wondering what in the world had just happened. Every single guard that Ringo saw was lying unconscious (or were they dead?) on the ground. He also saw, for some reason, wisps of smoke floating towards the sky. "Heeeeeeeellllloooooooooooooo?" he called out, kicking the dirt. "Anyone home?" A boy and girl crept out of a building together, surprising Ringo.
"Who are you?" the boy suspiciously asked Ringo.
"Erm, Ringo Leraz, pleasure to make your acquaintance. Now...could you tell me why you two are the only conscious people left here?"
*silence*
The girl spoke up. "How long have you been here?"
"About ten minutes, why? I'm a new arrival, but my guards ditched me after seeing all the bodies..."
The boy shrugged. "I'm Ryker. There was a lockdown and some fight...I don't know the exact details, but the building lit on fire and then everyone disappeared. Did you have anything to do with it?"
"I told you, I just came. But...I think I know where the other prisoners are..."
"Well, do tell us!" the girl rolled her eyes. "Unless you actually don't know?"
Ringo scowled. "All right, all right. I think they went back in time." He just realized how silly that sounded.
Ryker shook his head. "No, none of the inmates had powers related to time at all."
Ringo shrugged. "I'm just telling you what I know- a large group, from around here, just slipped back in time. A couple hundred years...around 2000. No, 2010...2017...2014!" The response was blank stares. "Well, if you want, I can take you there and we can look for them."
Ringo reached into his pocket, fingering the stone Jemma had given him. For a second, Ringo felt doubt. Should he take them? He knew that most prisoners who had gifts useful for escape were restrained, but he wasn't even though he could leave here in a blink of an eye. However, their method to keep him in line...No, they'll just assume I disappeared with the other prisoners. As long as the government doesn't find out about this, they shouldn't punish her...
Ryker paused, seeming to consider it. Then, he nodded. "Time travel, eh? What do you think, Eona?"
Eona's face lit up. "Hisoka must be ok, then!" She turned to Ringo and ordered, "TAKE US BACK!"
Ringo nodded slowly. He took the rock out of his pocket and absent-mindedly tossed it into the air. "This is a present from...a friend of mine. Her power could- I mean, can, essentially, boost the effectiveness of others' powers. So, normally I can only travel alone, but with this I'll try to yank us all into the past."
Ryker frowned. "What about money?"
Ringo waved his arm dismissively. "Sometime in the 1900's I was researching around here for some school project. I opened a bank account because I wanted to see how much money I would've accumulated by now. But we can use that money for a hotel, then we'll search for your friends."
The grim boy, Ryker, muttered, "They're not exactly friends...
Ringo shrugged and caught his stone, holding it out for them to touch. He closed his eyes and concentrated, and the stone began to glow...

((Uh... I'm guessing I'm a part of the first initial time travel group. Then again I'm not exactly sure. Maybe I'll have Lori in a totally different part of the world than the rest of the group just cuz. I think transporting the majority of the inmates that are still alive and having them end up in the same place at the same time when they're time traveling is a bit..... unrealistic.))
Lori
Lori woke up. Her head was throbbing with an unbearable headache. She raised herself to a sitting position. Lori found that she was sitting on a sort of wooden mat. The whole room she was in didn't have much in it. Mostly wood seemed to make up most of the architecture of the room she was in. What happened? Where am I?
A lady walked into the room and sat down next to Lori. She looked fairly old, probably in her 50's or 60's. She started speaking, but Lori only looked at her blankly.
She couldn't understand what she was saying.
After seeing Lori's blank expression, the lady walked out and in her stead a man walked in. Much younger, maybe in his late 20's. He started speaking with a slight, but apparent, accent.
"Ah, hello there. You must speak English." The man chuckled. "It was quite a surprise finding you in the front of our home here. You were just laying there, looking like you were from a battle or something. But why would a little girl like you be involving yourself in such manners?"
Lori just stared at him, not knowing what to say, or to even think.
"Oh how rude of me. I didn't even introduce myself! Here, my name is Haruka Hideki. I'm from the United States, but I'm visiting my mother here in Japan. So what's your name?"
Lori thought about it. My name? It was such a simple question but for some reason, she couldn't answer.
"... I don't know... I don't remember..."
"Hm?" The man, Haruka, looked appalled. "How does one not remember his or her own name? Do you remember anything?" Lori shook her head. "Ah... looks like we have a case of amnesia..."

Max turned to Lock.
"If we're going to survive here, we're going to have to fit in. We'll need to organize a group of people who can control their powers and not reveal themselves to society... we'll also need an adult to pose as our chaperone. Why don't we ask Jesse to pose as the older sister or chaperone of Lock, Psycho, and I?"
((Also, what's Psycho's situation? He seemed OK when we were defeating the Warden... is he unconscious/dying/sleeping/perfectly fine?))
((Do you think I should make a normal 2014 character? A biologist who is starting a chain of events that will eventually lead to the development of powers? Or maybe you guys have plans for that already - I don't want to interfere.))

Maria
She was in another unfamiliar place. She seemed to be closer though. P.O.C.K.E.T. seemed to have morphed again. It was now in..... a countless number of pieces. ((125,000 to be exact)). They scattered into the sky leaving her with a few minuscule cubes and a large bag of food. She didn't see any of the other people she assumed who also got swallowed by the ball of fire but she paid no heed to it.
((Since they all appeared to speak English to an extent, or a large translation power imbued tablet was in place, we can safely assume it's most likely somewhere in the Atlantic. Many countries would have probably been subsumed into other countries. Also, an explanation for Psycho not being able to Central Control-ling us back, he sustained an ample amount of brain damage after a shock to the head or two. So he should have a more weakened version of his power. Although as to quote myself "Everything can be explained with an ample amount of hand-waving, deus ex machinas, and using a less sophisticated Charles Dicken's esque style to conjure random coincidences."))

"If people here don't have powers, couldn't we...like...become rulers of various countries? Since, you know, we're way more powerful than unpowered individuals? Or, if not, could we at least figure out ways to amass power? Maybe if slave trafficking is legal... or weapons manufacturing for terrorist organizations... and now that you mention it, I think that before I came to the asylum I was part of a criminal syndicate. We could totally own this universe!"

((I'm going to make a new 2014 character.))
Name: Cassandra Hook
Nickname (optional): That's Dr. Hook to you, thank you very much.
Age: 27
Gender: Female
Home Timeline: 2014
Appearance: Relatively tall, messy brown hair, wears lab goggles and a lab coat.
Bio: Dr. Hook is a biologist working for Visope Industries, a corporation looking for alternative energy sources to replace Earth's quickly-dwindling fossil fuels. They have inroads into almost every kind of power source: from more conventional sources like solar and wind energy to more far-fetched ideas, like cold fusion. Dr. Hook is a researcher assigned to produce energy from living things, and her current experiments involve genetically mutating rodents to produce more energy.
Power: None
Are you okay with your character potentially falling in love?: She's a tad old for that...
Chibi (optional but encouraged): Attached.

Lock
Lock walked over to Simon and Vlad, "Now look here, were not taking over the world or anything of that sort, and no, you wouldn't live the rest of your life in comfort, because unless you haven't seen history before, no tyrant has ever lasted as long as they think they will, understand me?"

"Aw, you're no fun Lock. Well, since we probably don't want to divide our group any further, lest one of us be caught by the authorities or something, I can send some of my robots to investigate. Which reminds me. Here's your suit Vlad. It'as a little scorched, but it was for a good cause." Since they probably didn't want any attention, Simon had to have his drones travel along the shadows in the alleyways. It took a lot longer, but he had no choice.
"I'm allowed to use my power, right, because it won't draw any attention if I have a machine, as opposed to most of your powers?"
((Btw, can he actually use his power her? I don't know if the twins will allow it.))

Dr. Cassandra Hook
Dr. Hook walked through the halls of Visope Industries to her lab room, licking her lips. Her chapstick had gone missing a few days ago, and she hadn't gotten a chance to get a new stick yet. She sighed, looked at the view of the beach below her, and sat down. "Mike?" she called to the intern who was working with them. "Please retrieve Subject C-29 and the infared thermometer. Many of Dr. Hook's rats showed unusual characteristics: some glowed, some had only one eye. But, Subject C-29 showed the most promise. "Bring a control rat too." Mike promptly delivered the supplies to her, and she began testing.
First of all, normal body temperature, naturally measured in Celsius. The control rat? 38.0 degrees. Subject C-29? 50.5 degrees. Enough to cause a burn if handled for too long. But even more surprising... Dr. Hook pressed a button on the side of each cage and a treadmill started within. The control rat soon tired out, but Subject C-29 just moved faster and faster. 60 degrees... 70 degrees... the temperature growth seemed exponential, until it peaked at around 550 degrees. Dr. Hook turned the treadmill off and smiled. Her boss would have something to hear about tomorrow.
When Dr. Hook looked out the window one more time, she noticed a ragtag bunch of children and young adults on the beach. What were they doing there? They had probably stayed up all night, partying... Dr. Hook sighed. Sometimes, her work prevented her from enjoying herself. But she was on the verge of the greatest scientific discovery of a century...

"Hey, okay, I've got results. Were on the beach here. There's a cluster of buildings that looks to be a few miles long in that direction. The buildings her are shorter than the ones back home, but the floor plan is wider. And there's a fairly large grassy area to the west of that cluster. It could be a park or a graveyard, I'm not sure."
"Oh, also, I forgot to say, these buildings aren't following the standard precautions we had back home, they don't have thick enough walls and the windows are really flimsy. I think it's fairly likely there were no powers here, since that was the main reason for those precautions we have."

Vivian
"Stupid, stupid, stupid!" Vivian had been muttering under her breath. "If they don't have powers, they have weapons. And, even if they didn't, taking over the world would probably render you powerless. Don't you know anything about time? Introduce powers into the world before they exist, and you stop the chain of events that lead to them existing. Stop the chain of events that leads to them existing, and you'll have never had powers in the first place. Which means you won't be able to introduce powers into the world. It's a paradox. Show people your powers, and it's likely the universe would explode. And then there wouldn't be anything to rule. Time is flexible, but not that flexible!"
Vivian she was positively steaming when Lock asked the question. "I don't know. I've never been in this time period before," she answered curtly.

Max was about to give Vivian a long lecture on the explanations for such paradoxes and the way the universe dealt with them, before deciding that she almost certainly knew a whole lot more about time than he did.

Hey, power. Can I get a machine that can accurately teleport us through time and space?... I thought not. "Well, sadly, my power can't make an accurate time machine as much as I want it to, so I'll have to come up with some other plan.
How about some transportation with a roof and enough room for all of us that would be difficult or impossible to see into. Score! He went behind a large dune on the off chance that somebody was looking out their window in the middle of the night. A bunch of random pieces or metal and plastic collapsed onto the sand with a thud.

Random Citizen
About thirty feet away was a group of people who looked like they were fresh out of a battle zone. They were having a conversation that he shouldn't have been able to hear, but he could--and it was exceptionally loud. A few people were stopping to stare. Random Citizen took out his cell phone and dialed the police.
"9-1-1, what is the nature of your emergency?"
"I'm on thirty-ninth street. There's a bunch of kids over here, and I think they're drunk. They're ranting about time travel and a couple of them are passed out. And they're speaking really, really, loudly. A lot more loudly than normal. They said something about being able to overpower us easily with their powers--I take that to mean they have weapons. Please hurry."
"We're sending some officers down there, now. Please stay out of their way, as they could be dangerous."
The operator hung up.
Vivian
"Hey, does it seem kind of loud to you?" she looked around, and saw everyone staring.
"Poop. Please tell me that none of you have any sort of voice amplification power."

"Vivian, do you think it would be dangerous to affect these people's minds? There aren't any visual signals for my power. I wouldn't do anything too much, just make them a little bit more confused. That might make it easier for us to escape.

Dr. Cassandra Hook
Dr. Hook noticed these kids congregating near the side of the Visope Industries main building, just beneath her window. She nearly called security, but noticed that these kids looked pretty disheveled. More than they would look if they were just partying all night. Maybe she should see what they were doing...

Dr. Hook couldn't believe what she had just seen. Those kids had disappeared in a flash of fire. How was that even possible?
Dr. Hook decided that she had probably just had a brief hallucination. She wanted to have a long talk with the cook in the Visope cafeteria... what exactly were they putting in her food?
The fire reminded her of her rats back in the building. She decided to conduct more tests on them and try to isolate the gene responsible for its incredible heat abilities.

Max sat down in the grass and looked at the clouds. Our powers loose in the world... a world without them. And to think I was worried before...
Dr. Cassandra Hook
Heightened body temperature... under physical stress, body temperature increases to 11 times normal...
Subject C-29 was certainly an interesting specimen. Dr. Hook was even beginning to get attached to it. Perhaps it deserved a name. Ignis, she thought. Yes, Ignis would be a perfect name: both for the rat and for the gene that produced its odd characteristics.
Dr. Hook had finally managed to isolate and decode the Ignis gene. Now she could start moving away from random mutations and focus more on this odd gene. She injected it into five more specimens: Now she had six specimens: Ignis-0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Dr. Hook decided to email her boss, Larry Greel, with her test results. She quickly received an email back, asking her to come to his office in the main Visope Industries office. It was on the other side of town. She decided to walk there, asking Mike to record any changes in the Ignis group of specimens. He was a smart kid – he would figure it out.
She left the building and started to walk to the other side of town. She stopped when she noticed a kid lying in the grass. It was... the kid who was at the beach, along with some of his friends. What was he doing here? She sighed: the kid was probably homeless. "Um, excuse me, who exactly are you? Do you need a place to stay?"

Ambrosius, hm? Doesn't seem like a real name. A nickname, perhaps?
Dr. Hook smiled, half in relief. The kid seemed to be relatively normal – except for his name – and she decided that what she had seen earlier was a trick of the light. She should probably help these kids.
"My name is Dr. Hook. I have a couple rooms in my place, but not enough to fit all of you. There's a hotel nearby, though, where the rest of you could stay. I could cover the expenses for a few nights, but not for all of you. Or, you could go to the homeless shelters, but they're pretty full of people this time of year. So, what do you want to do?"
Max
This woman... Dr. Hook... was making an offer that he doubted they could refuse. It was up to each person, though, whether they wanted to stay with her, in the hotel, in the shelter, or out in the streets. The people without extremely visible powers could probably stay with Dr. Hook, if they decided they could trust her enough to stay in her house.

"Thank you very much, you have no idea how much we need a place to stay" Lock said, "By the way, I know Ambrosius is a mouthful, so you can call me Lock, I believe we can divide up in a couple minutes ma'am"
He walked back to max, "How's this sound, Me, you, and Simon stay at her house, we're the least likely to lose control, the rest can stay at the hotel, as they might let loose easier, if any don't fit, Mirror can certainly copy one of us and not be seen with that person, and gravity could sleep on some pillows on the ceiling"

"All right then, Lock. Sounds good." He turned to the woman. "Um, Dr. Hook? The three of us would like to stay in your house, while the rest of us should be fine at the hotel. Thank you so much, miss. My name's Max, and this is Simon."
Dr. Hook
So these kids are staying at my house... and I'll have to fund the others at the hotel. Oh well, my job gives a lot of pay, and I'm definitely expecting a raise soon...
"Well then, that sounds good. I'll show you three to my house and make the reservations for the hotel on the way. For the rest of you, the hotel is called the Vista Hotel. It's a few blocks west of here. Here's some money in case you guys want to buy dinner." Dr. Lock handed an ample amount of money to the girl who seemed to be the adult in the other group ((this is Jesse)). She turned to Lock, Max, and Simon and began to walk. "I have to get going to my boss' office. You can get settled in my house; there's some food in the fridge. You can stay in the guest room; it has three beds." She dropped off Lock, Max, and Simon at her house and arrived at her boss' office.
((She's pretty trusting, but then again Visope funds her housing and she doesn't have anything valuable there.))

"Thanks again!" he said as he motioned for the group to follow, Psycho was walking, but Pulse still had to be carried, they all headed down to Dr. Hook's house. She arrived and let the tree of them in and sent the rest on their way to the hotel, Lock leaned out of the door, "Meet us here tomorrow" he said to Mirror, "We'll see where we can go from there" Mirror gave him a thumbs up before running off with the rest of the group.
Max, Simon, and Lock stepped in to the guest room and threw their stuff down, making sure Dr. hook was out of the door, Lock let out a breath of blue flame, "I heat up so quickly when I can't let any fire out" he said before heading to the kitchen to check out the house.

Simon
Well, this was slightly annoying. He didn't entirely trust this woman. She certainly seemed nice, but that was exactly why he didn't trust her. It isn't paranoia if they're really out to get you, and one of his philosophies was to be prepared.
Hey, power. Something small enough to be concealed inside my clothes or maybe inside Bob, with enough firepower to potentially rake out a police car, a few officers, or this doctor. Well, this looks like fun.
"Hey, guys? I don't know where Bob is right now, he should be coming, but until then, could one of you guys help me build this laser grenade? This seems like the perfect time to concoct some backup plans."

"But the cop are after us. Of course we need backup. Besides, Bob can hide under my bed. He's only a foot and a half tall. And most of my drones are alive. If it turn out that we escaped from the asylum on a different landmass from out home only so we could end up in another jail, on a different world from our homes, I will go crazy."
"And that doctor woman doesn't seem trustworthy. Like at all. I mean, who goes up to a random bunch of homeless teenagers and offers to pay for their hotel stay, unless they're crazy or they have ulterior motives. And she doesn't seem crazy."

((I'm baack! Sorry, we had dinner, too. DX))
Mirror
((Just saying, guys, there isn't going to be enough room. I feel the need to have my charries in both places.))
Mirror walked slightly behind the group. The others were huddled together slightly; not conspicuously, but too close for comfort for a person like Mir. She was still Psycho--she supposed they'd have to be twins because certainly the doctor lady noticed that. It was too late to snag a new form.
Mirror felt rather useless. She wished she could carry some of the unconscious people, but she'd take on their form as well as all aspects of their bodies, so she'd be knocked unconscious, as well, just by touching them. Instead, she resigned to just walking along behind them.
Gravity
Gravity had taken off her suit as soon as she realized that it would be extremely conspicuous in this time period. She carried it with her delicately. Surely if she started falling off the Earth, then she could put it on and get to the ground before it was too late. Still, she couldn't wait to get to the hotel room.
Vivian
"I don't like this," Vivian announced, although she clearly hadn't liked the situation for some while now. "I don't like this at all. What if she somehow finds out?"

"Simon, calm it down, the person who called didn't get too good of a look at us and just told the cops a couple things Vlad said, they won't come after us, first because we are 100% off the record, like we literally don't exist in this time period, and two because no photos, no proof, no arrest, I'm pretty sure even in 2014 that still applies"
"Also, If this lady does turn out to be bad, we have the power and resources to escape with everyone, like we did that sticky situation with the cops. But you are right, when she gets back I will talk to her a little more"

((I'm thinking Mirror. Like, if it's crowded enough, well, I'm sure she wouldn't want to be wedged between two people because that would probably give her a huge headache. Plus, I think it would be interesting to try to pass her off as one of them. XD))
Mirror
When they got to the hotel, the manager looked at them doubtfully. "You're the bunch that woman paid for? I'm showing two small adjacent rooms for the lot of you. Are you sure you'll all fit?"
"We're going to have to, aren't we?" Mirror asked. The man sighed and held out a small room key. Since she'd spoken, he held it out to her. Mirror immediately took a step back.
Gravity
Gravity didn't know much about Mirror, but she did sense the girl's predicament. After all, wasn't her power triggered by contact? And the card was so small that anyone who took it would be sure to brush the man's hand. Gravity stepped up and took the card.
"Sorry about that," she said. "She doesn't like touching other people."
"She?" The man looked doubtfully over at Mirror, who was still an exact replica of Lloyd.
"Oh, sorry. It's an inside joke," Vivian interjected. "Mirror is the girliest of the two."
"Am not," Mirror retorted.
"Mirror is a strange name," the man at the desk muttered. "Alright, well, you've got your key. Head on up, now. It's room 326."
They arrived at the room. Gravity let out a breath. "He wasn't kidding when he said it was small," she whistled. The room was tiny.
Mirror looked rather pale. "This is going to be a long night," she muttered.

Mirror
"Um..." Mirror said. "This is too small. Way too small. I'm going to get one heck of a migraine staying here. Prolonged contact with people... it's not fun. And I don't see any way to avoid it with this room."
"That's alright," Gravity said. "Go. It's not likely you'll give yourself away, anyways."
Mir nodded and left.
She came up to the woman's house. She didn't want to be let inside by the woman. She was terrified that she'd get into a situation which would demand a handshake, and then it'd all be over. Instead, she circled the house, looking in the windows, and found the other kids' room. She knocked on the window, a sheepish expression plastered on her face.

Max focused his entropy on Mirror as she tried to imagine her normal form, and in about five minutes, she managed to change into the white-haired girl. However, exposure to Max's entropy would probably make her hyper for another few minutes.
Max smiled. "Well, there you have it. That should make things a lot easier. How's everyone else?"

I've never had a normal form, ever. Wait, do you think some day I could do this on my own? Change into this? If I tried? Do you think I'd be able to save things like my fa--the warden? Would that be possible? Please tell me that would be possible. Well, is she here? Should I go ring the door? Or should I wait? Or should I just climb in through the window?

"All right then, let's see how this goes."
Dr. Cassandra Hook
Dr. Cassandra checked the security camera footage on her personal iPad as she was going up the elevator. She blinked. There seemed to be two of that boy, Lock. One of them seemed to be focusing intently on something, while the other two were watching. These were certainly strange kids... how could this be possible? Did Lock have a twin? They didn't seem to be causing any trouble yet, though, and she had to talk to her boss. She sighed and put her iPad away. She didn't like her boss, Larry, much. She grinned: the kids staying at the hotel were staying there thanks to the company's money. If nothing else, it was a way to spite Larry.
((I was originally going to do this when Mirror hadn't yet changed into Lock, but thanks to a post editing problem, it's happening now. Ah, fate.))

Mirror
Mir closed her eyes, concentrating hard on her form. After a couple minutes, she opened them. "Well?" she asked.
She'd managed to slightly adjust her skin color to the correct one and whiten the tips of her hair. Her features were also a strange mix of feminine and masculine traits.

"It's a good start, I suppose. Do you think you could try transforming into any kind of person, or just this form?"
Dr. Cassandra Hook
Dr. Hook stepped into her boss' office. "Ah, hello, Cassandra. It's nice to see you."
"Thanks, and the same for you."
"So, about your research... you say that you've developed a mutation in rats that's allowed them to... produce heat?"
"Yes, I call it the Ignis gene."
"This is simply fantastic news! I could become famous! The richest man in the world! Thank you, Cassandra, I am certainly going to give you a pay raise."
"I suppose it has applications in energy, alth–"
"Oh, no. I didn't mean energy. You see, the biggest oil company in the world is offering me a fair sum to slow down work in that area."
Now he's taking bribes... "Then, what will we use it for?"
"There's a certain... subsection of the population who would very much enjoy... access to this gene. Is it safe for human use?
"Wha–HUMAN use? You want me to inject HUMANS with this gene? That's... dangerous in so many ways! Who would want to have their DNA altered with an EXPERIMENTAL gene!?"
"Cassandra, I'm losing my patience. There are plenty of people who are willing to sign a waiver. If you don't inject them, you will lose your job. I don't care how important your contributions are."
"You do realize this will change society forever."

Ten rather difficult minutes later, Mirror had transformed all the way into her new form.
"Let me try something new," she said. "Maybe the doctor lady, since then I'll have a visual in my mind."
She tried and tried for another five minutes but nothing happened. "Hmm. I don't think that works. It's a shame."

She entered her house, and realized that she needed to talk to these kids. Lock approached her at almost exactly the same time. "Look, sorry, but I have some questions to ask you," both of them said. "All right then, you first," Dr. Hook said. She needed some time to think.

And I've noticed a few strange... occurrences involving you kids that I'd like explained. Secondly, my boss gives me vacation money every year. I know that if I don't use it, he'll just take it back, and... well, I have to admit that I enjoy spiting him – just a little. Finally, you kids did need someplace to stay, and I just thought it would be sensible."

The old lady came back with a bundle of clothes and set them down on the ground.
"Oh, your clothes are here. They might be a bit big, so I hope that's okay. I'll leave and let you get situated." Haruka walked out of the room leaving Lori there.
Lee
During the time that Lori was unconscious, Lee explored the Japanese home. It was a humble house with few decorations and not many rooms. Lee heard footsteps coming his way and tried to find somewhere to hide, but it was too late.
"Whoa! What's this?" It was Japanese man, staring at Lee in surprise. Oh dear... I've been caught, Lee thought.
"Um... excuse me sir... what year is it?" the stick figure asked. Haruka just stared at him blankly. "Okay... well I assume you are quite shocked to see a green stick figure walking around and talking. You see, this whole situation is quite complicated and I have some questions to ask you. You can either answer those questions and I'll tell you what's going on or you can disregard me completely and walk away as if I am a hallucination." Lee let that sink in a little bit.
"So... you're a talking stick figure."
"Yep."
"And this is all real?"
"As far as I'm concerned yes."
Haruka closed his eyes and took a deep breath before speaking once more. "Well... to answer your question it's 2014."
It was now Lee's turn to be shocked. Oh gosh... this is really bad... "Um... okay to be brief, Lori, the girl you took in, and I are from the future. 2445 to be exact. Like I said... it's really complicated."
"Well I have all day." Haruka sat down on the ground. "Go ahead, tell me your story..." Lee started explaining all the events that had happened.

Lock sat down, "You want to give these injections to humans? what do they do? Also, I'l think about the DNA sample, I'm sure mirror's response is certainly a no, and I don't know about Max. I'll stay, and by the way, you seem very calm for what we just demonstrated"

Dr. Cassandra Hook
"I think I'm still absorbing what my boss told me earlier. It's odd, though... the rats that I've been experimenting on have developed certain... characteristics not too unlike yours. It's like I'm seeing the future of my experiments in front of my very eyes..."
"As for the injections, well, the theory is that the injections should mutate the recipient's genes in a way that allows them to gain these abilities. I certainly think that it's not something we should rush into, but my research is the most important thing to me, and the boss is threatening to fire me if I don't pull through."
Max
"I'll give a DNA sample," Max finally said, much to the annoyance of Mirror. Max gave Dr. Hook a Q-tip he had rubbed in his mouth. Dr. Hook began to separate the DNA from it almost subconsciously as she talked.

Mirror
Mirror sank to the ground, putting her head in her hands.
((Plot twist)).
"Oh, he was right, he was right, he was right. The asylum really was my only hope."
The warden's power was rare, and she was the first child between someone of his power and a shapeshifter. Mirror had had experiences with scientists before, and they weren't pleasant. For the first year of her life, she'd been subjected to testing. New or extremely rare powers always her. She'd only escaped because her father had her brought to the asylum. She'd thought she could escape both. She was starting to think she was wrong.
((She can remember her early years because she was never a baby.))

"Superheroes?" Lock had never run in to the concept of superheroes, as everyone in 2445 had powers of some sort, someone using special powers to stop crime had really only shown up in police stories, or where a powerful agent uses mind trickery to lure out a powerful necromancer or stuff like that, "People will pay for these injections? What exactly do they do, give them what I can do?"

She turned to the girl on the ground. "Are you all right? You don't have to give me a sample if you don't want to... Why don't you head to your room? You might be able to calm down." She then responded to Lock.
"Well, based on the rats, not even. So far, the most advanced power we have is increased body heat: a far cry from fire generation. It's just that people like the idea of... wait a second. Why do I have to explain to you one of the most popular plots in fantasy books and comics? Where have you been living for the past 80 years?"

Mirror looked up to stare daggers at the boys. "If you say a single word, you know Vivian is going to kill you." She sighed and stood, hoping to draw the attention away from that.

Lock
In 2445 He thought, but he knew he could say it out loud, so he ignored the question all together, "Increased body temperature, why would anyone pay for that, what will that even do? you can not get fevers, but that's about it, you know what, sure, you can have a sample of my DNA, because your heat injections are an insult to fire" Lock breathed out, "Wow, sorry there, I turned into Grandy for half a second there, yeah sure, you can get a sample" he licked the q-tip and put it in a jar and handed it to her, "Hopefully that helps you develop the body heat thing, although I would recommend you not let your boss know about that, as he'll want to know where it came from, and that would be a difficult question to ask"

Dr. Cassandra Hook
"Um, yes, just a Q-tip. Thank you." Dr. Hook sighed. "It's not like I'll be giving your DNA in an injection to anyone... at least not yet. I would rather not give the entire world powers like yours. It would be incredibly hard to explain where I got them. I'll use it for my own personal study . And by the way, increased body temperature is about 550 degrees centigrade in this case, although it still doesn't compare to your fire." She sighed and turned to the other two boys in the room. "So, what are your powers, anyway? I presume you have some."

((A few things:
-You people type way too fast
-I just read through 35 minutes worth of story telling
-The only thing the shock did to Psycho's head was remove his insanity. He now has the ability to disrupt powers, amplify them and use mind control.
-Central Control, unlike almost every other power, is not born naturally, nor corresponds with a genetic mutation. It's existence baffled scientists, as it can't be explained scientifically. It cannot be passed down genetically. Dissecting Lloyd Watson's DNA (Never happens, just theoretically) reveals that he technically has no power at all, thus Central Control would be scientifically categorized under something far beyond "Powers".
-I will not actively participate in Unpinnable. I am giving permission for Elephants4ever to use Pulse, and Iaashadow to use Psycho.

Maria
It had gotten quite late. She supposed she could simply sleep in this building P.O.C.K.E.T. had led her too. Most of the pieces were still missing so she assumed they were exploring the area to make sure it was safe to to procure supplies.
P.O.C.K.E.T.
Having split into 125,000, 2 centimeter x 2 centimeter cubes x 2 centimeter cubes ((I think I'm still doing the math wrong)), P.O.C.K.E.T. could make each of its components specialize in certain functions. For the ones guarding Maria, they would be covered in a much harder plating to form a defensive barrier. Its main cores would also remain near Maria to be able to monitor where the other cubes where going and to relay commands to them.
Currently, around 20,000 cubes were with Maria, 5,000 cubes were patrolling the current city, and the remaining 100,000 were to transverse this world for more information. The 100,000 cubes were modified to predominately be able to reach speeds of 1,500 km ((roughly the speed and size of a bullet that does not lose its velocity)) and have sensory "organs" to identify things such as topography, organism, and various other things. These cubes are extremely frail and have no other capabilities than to transmit information.
Within 10 minutes of the separation, a group of cubes had located the whereabouts of Psycho's group which happened to be in the same city as its host. 1,000 cubes were deployed to monitor their movements. Judging from this, there would be other asylum members in the world. P.O.C.K.E.T. switched the main priorities of the cubes from simple exploration to locating people from the asylum.
Bacchus
It had been quite a few hours since he had arrived in this unfamiliar place. It took him a while to figure out what his best course of action was. Just hours ago, he had just started off on a raft, and the next thing he knew, a maelstrom had appeared and dragged him into the past.
He had asked around for information and found a library nearby. It had loads of antique books with ones marked "New" dating in the year 2014. From this, he deduced that this must be the past.
After a few hours of meticulous searching, he figured out what the documents were required in the country he was in ((Did we say that this was America?)) and found leads to methods he could obtain such documentation without any records pertaining to his identity.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He had found some sort of "black market" where he could get birth certification and identification. He signed a contract from what he could tell, made him owe a large sum of money to said forgers with a larger interest rate. He also, went to some of the loansharks to borrow a sum of money
Gambling has always been my thing. If it doesn't turn out the way I hope, I'll think of something else. I appreciate that many of the gambling games haven't changed significantly in the past 400 years. I'll get started tomorrow.

Day 2
Lock got up from his guest bed and walked upstairs to the kitchen, his hair in a mess. Dr. Hook was either still in her bed or at work already, he absentmindedly got out a pan and some eggs and then paused, Oh, right, I'm still in 2014 He thought, Well she knows now already and did his usual thing of self-cooking eggs. Today is gonna be another long day

Dr. Cassandra Hook
Dr. Hook came downstairs after hastily getting ready for work. She had gotten an email from Mike asking her to come to the lab. She noticed Lock making eggs with his fire and stared for a few seconds. Then, she shook her head and smiled. "I need to get to the lab, I can see that you're handling breakfast. I need to check on the Ignis serum tests." Lock nodded. Dr. Hook made sure that she had all of the DNA samples in her bag: she labelled Lock's with a 12 and Max's with a 13. Nobody would pay much attention to those; she had a lot of samples already in her lab. "If you want to go around the city to find someplace to work or something, there's a map in the drawer. Feel free to take it."
Dr. Hook left with a smile on her face. These kids had abilities no one else had, and it was her job to find out how they worked.
Maxwell Carn
Max came downstairs to find Lock cooking eggs. Dr. Hook seemed to have just left. "Hah, this brings back memories." Max glanced around. "Not particularly good ones, though... perhaps it's just better to forget our time in the asylum." Max grinned. "How did you sleep? This was... my first night in a long time when my bed didn't turn into some hideous mess while I was sleeping. After we all eat, do you want to check on everyone in the hotel?"

Also, due to my chaotic existence, bunnying of my characters is perfectly fine and in fact welcome, as long as it doesn't lead to crazy massacres and the like.))
Simon
After a fitful night of rest, the sun came up all too soon. Simon had barely slept out of fear, so he was still yawning for a while after morning. The first thing he did was get a few of his drones out from the closest of his numerous hiding places, had them switch to compact mode, folding into the size of a tennis ball, and ordered them to act as surveillance for both Hook's apartment and her office. He would later have to tell her to try to ignore any drones, robots, or weapons of mass destruction she happened to see. He had none of the latter yet, but one could never be too prepared. Then he took stock of prisoners.
He, Max, Lock, and Mirror were here. The sound controlling girl, the crazy boy, the lightning girl, the woman he'd never met, Vlad, and Gravity were all at the hotel. He was sure there were more people in the asylum though. If they were all in about the same place when they teleported, it stood to reason that they would all got o the same world. So he sent out his drones to search this city and try to find any other prisoners.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He got back some pieces of news soon enough. For one thing, there were thousands of tiny little cubes- a couple of centimeters across- that seemed to be clustered around this area. The cubes were entirely unremarkable, but they mad him uneasy. He also doubted technology at this time period allowed for drones this advanced. He programmed some drones to try to find the source of them.
The other piece of news was that a large middle aged man that his drones had recognized as a resident of the asylum seemed to be in this city as well.
"Um... guys? Any of you ever heard about a buff guy in his thirties living in the asylum? According to my drones... he came here with us."

Xylla
Surprisingly, the rest of the night was quite peaceful. Usually Xyl would be awoken frequently during her sleep due to her heightened hearing. It was now morning, so Xyl yawned and slowly got up. She started walking towards the bathroom to wash her face. It was strange though. Basic activities were no longer simple anymore. She couldn't feel the impact of her feet against the floor, so often times she found herself looking down at them to make sure they were walking properly. And that wasn't even her worst problem anymore. Stuck in 2014... so this is what we get for escaping the asylum. Why must life be so annoying.

"I slept fine, I can only imagine how it must have been for you sleeping well for the first time" Lock said, "I'm going to head out after breakfast for a short trip, the others will come here if they want to, we need to lay low for a little while, and we need to scope out this city, I think we have enough to rent that hotel for another night, so today we need Simon to come up with a shelter design, and I'll be back to help build it a little later. If any of the hotel people show up, we have a map in the house, so we can hang around the city"
Simon then ran in and said something about a 30 something man in the city who somehow came there with the prisoners, "Who could that be? I honestly have no idea, a guard who was left behind? or someone else who was just hanging at the Asylum? I really don't know, at least we know it's not the warden, we really don't need him in his current state here"

Lloyd woke up from his long sleep and saw Xyl walking around as if she didn't know how, he sat up, "Xyl? What's wrong?"

Also, We're planning to build a shelter and hide it nearby for the others to stay in" Lock put his plate on the table, "By the way, you seem to be the most paranoid about all of this, have you had bad experiences with scientists in the past?"

"It's good that you can change into people. But what I'm interested in... is there a possibility that you could suppress your shift into someone else if you touch them? That would make it a lot safer to go outside."
Dr. Cassandra Hook
Dr. Hook used her remote access security system to make sure all the doors and windows were locked and the shades were covered. ((The people inside can still leave, it's just so people can't snoop.)) She stepped up to her lab. "So, Mike, how are the Ignis specimens?"
"The abilities aren't the same thanks to genetic mutations. Ignis-0 is still performing at full capacity. Abilities are confirmed: max body temperature around 500 degrees and increased stamina. Ignis-1 can heat localized areas of its body to 1000 degrees. Ignis-2 has a maximum body temperature of only 200 degrees, but it can run faster than the others. Ignis-3 creates fire much more easily than the others, even though its temperature is only at 700 degrees. Ignis-4 has similar abilities to Ignis-1, but it can heat up patches of the area around it. Ignis-5... well, it's died. From hyperthermia, I think."
"That's... a little bit unsettling. Have you heard from the boss?"
"Yes, that's why I called you here. He said the next test subject was going to visit... at about now. Do you know what he meant?"
Already!? But I'm not even prepared! A rat just died! "Er, no. You've done great work, you can leave for the day."
"Um, sure. I'll see you sometime later, Dr. Hook!"
A few minutes after Mike left, the buzzer rang. She sighed: she would just have to tell this man that they weren't yet ready for the injection. But if he still wanted to go through with it, and she refused... she would probably lose her job. "Come in, please."

I went to a public school, funded by the government, luckily for me, they had the latest computer gear and we got to see all the new technology and virtual reality games where we could play these huge games that would normally kill people if played in real life, man, it was great, but then I was sent to the island, right before I was going to pick a university, and I thought my life had been ruined, but i learned to cope, and now I'm here, in 2014"

"As for my life in 2445, I was great in school until my powers developed; then, well, you can guess the results. All my notes got disorganized and switched around – eventually, my parents started to homeschool me. I understood what they were saying perfectly, it was just that everything around me started to break down.

((Wait, what's Part 2?))
Dr. Cassandra Hook
Dr. Cassandra was trying her best to convince this man not to receive the injection.
"It's not refined yet, if you want better abilities you might want to wait longer." Not like I would ever trust someone like this with better powers...
"No, Dr. Hook. The best option is to be the first one to the party. Genetic mutations: it's the wave of the future!"
"There might be side effects. Just between you and me, one of the rats died because it couldn't control its own power."
"I'm willing to risk anything! I'll be famous! A superhero!"
Dr. Hook had decided the waiver wasn't quite harsh enough, and had written up a new one. "Do you, the Client, agree, that if you or a loved one dies a death, painful or otherwise, thanks to the actions of this serum, heretofore referred to as the Ignis serum, that you will waive all charges to Visope Industries, heretofore known as the Provider? Do you agree that if you suffer any painful or debilitating side effects as a result of the Ignis Serum, including but not limited to cancerous growths or a constant burning sensation, that you will not blame the Provider?"
The client finished reading the form and signed it without a thought. "OK, then, now for your name."
"Leonard Blackstone, aged 35, male, no allergies, just get on with it!"
Blackstone... why was that name so familiar?
"All right then, Mr. Blackstone. You will receive the injection now. It may hurt. A lot. Any... abilities should develop within two hours as the virus carrying the Ignis serum passes it to all the cells in your body. Please wait here."
Dr. Hook sighed – there was no going back now – and injected him.

--Prior to Day 2--
When Lee finished his story, Haruka started laughing in hysterics. Agh, I knew he wasn't gonna believe it... Lee thought. It took Haruka 5 whole minutes to regain his composure.
"Okay. So you're from the future."
"Well, not only me. Lori too, and probably a bunch of other people."
"Aaaand in the future, people have powers."
"Uh huh." Okay so that must mean 2014 hasn't developed powers yet. Noted.
"And some people can't control them so they get sent to this prison where you and Lori are from?" Lee nodded.
"And just recently everyone tried to escape and some teleportation and time traveling happened?" Haruka took a deep breath before adding on to his question. "And now I'm supposed to believe all of this?"
"Well, considering that I'm standing right here and you are seeing me right now, you might as well believe it. I know it's a lot to take in." Haruka just blinked at him. He then got up and walked away, leaving Lee alone in the hallway. Well, this is going well.

"Hey guys, my power is finally giving me a semi-decent shelter we could build. The most out-of-the-way place I can find around here is some woods past the edge of the city, since we can't really build this in the park. It's a dome, large enough for all of us and the hotel group to sleep in, with some force-field defenses, a place for storing rations, and it gets its own electricity and running water (complete with recovery system). It's resilient enough to act as a nuclear bunker in a pinch. Anyway, Bob's digging out the foundation right now, but it'll take a few day unless someone goes over there to help him. Anyone volunteering, since I can't? Or should we just wait since there's nothing pressing right now and no rush?"
"And also, according to the drones I've got everywhere, Dr. Hook is injecting someone with a formula. What if it has our DNA? Or even some other random powers? Should we stop her? Should we escape now? Do we really want more enemies, this tie with powers?"

"Simon" he paused before he walked out the door, "I trust Dr. hook to not use our powers on that subject, she's using that body heat thing most likely, it's useless so we have nothing to worry about, I may stay here, as Dr. Hook is the only person we can barely trust who can help us learn about the time period, we can't do this alone, that being said, I'll be back in an hour or so"

Lock walked around the area, walking into stores and restaurants, observing everything.

SO were stores, no telekinetics to get stuff for you, no technomancers to explain how everything worked, just normal people.

Dr. Cassandra Hook
"It's been two hours. What can I do? Tell me!" Leonard seemed ready to jump with excitement.
"Just try to focus... you should be able to increase your body heat somehow. Maybe run faster." Even the rats figured out how to do it...
Leonard focused for a while, and then suddenly he started glowing. "I'm heating up! I'm heating up!" Then his clothes caught on fire. Dr. Hook sighed and poured a bucket of water on him. The same abilities as Ignis-0...
Leonard laughed and the water on his skin began hissing. "Not even water can best... The Human Torch! No... the Superhuman Bonfire! Yes! I am the Superhuman Bonfire! I'll be famous! A celebrity!" Dr. Hook quickly showed Leonard out the door, after receiving a DNA sample to see what the Ignis genes were doing. I certainly hope he doesn't do anything too reckless...
Now, it was time to start sequencing DNA. She pulled out Vial 13, Max's, and started to isolate the ability sequence. The machine seemed to be working remarkably quickly; the DNA barely needed sequencing at all.

"What?" Lock shook his head, "Who did you say you were? a bonfire? Let's see some fire then, all you have achieved so far is burning some of your shirt off, how is that going to stop criminals?" Lock was just dumbfounded by this strange man, "Also, what is your actual name?"

"You want a demonstration of my ultimate power? Well, I would be happy to oblige. Observe my hand."
The Superhuman Bonfire's hand began glowing with heat. "With this heat, nobody can touch me! I am... INVINCIBLE!!!!!"
Lock rolled his eyes and touched the man's hand for a few seconds, then removed his finger. ((I'm assuming you have heat immunity.))
The Superhuman Bonfire raised his eyes in surprise. This child could withstand even his ultimate powers. "I'll let you in on a secret, kid. My secret identity, that is. My name is... LEONARD BLACKSTONE!" He yelled his name so loud that even people on the other side of the block turned their heads. Now, do you want to be my sidekick? The Robin to my Batman? Come on, kid, it's an offer you can't refuse."

"All right then, kid. You've forced my hand, and now I must show you my greatest card. I'm charging up... a BONFIRE DASH!" The Superhuman Bonfire began to accelerate around Leonard at superhuman speeds (actually only 10 mph) whilst heating up his body. Soon all of his clothes were on fire. Upon dashing at Lock, seeing that he didn't even flinch, and realizing that all of his clothes were burning off, he decided to beat a hasty retreat. "Goodbye, child. Today, you have learned the might of the Superhuman Bonfire!"

"I'll go help Bob build, also because I've got to get somewhere secluded to release all of this stuff. I an feel the pressure building. Do you know where the shelter is?"
Simon
According to the drones, he middle aged man from the asylum was apparently sitting around a table with a number of people he took to be ****rs, sine they were smoking and looked to be playing a card game. They also help little chips, which was pretty much a dead giveaway. ((Since this is a kid's site and all, is people playing poker and gambling allowed? I can change it if it's not appropriate.))
Meanwhile, Dr. Hook was observing a sample, that lady named Jesse was building with Bob, Lock was talking to some guy with burnt clothes (what on earth?) and the strange cubes were still flying around. He didn't want to shoot them down because that would risk a counterattack.
Simon decided he needed another robot. Bob on his own couldn't do too much, and he wasn't specialized, and Simon didn't want to have to count on the others to do everything. Also, Bob was extremely conspicuous to be seen with. That was when inspiration struck him.
Power, I need a robot that looks exactly like a seeing eye dog, complete with synthetic fur, but capable of bipedal transportation, with extra storage compartments, airborne and waterborne transportation, and weaponry. It took about 30 seconds to process this complex request before giving him the blueprint.
He called in Bob and Jesse and had them build it. It only took about an hour away from shelter building time, and now they had extra help. It was small, only about a meter long and 2 feet high, but it was useful. Far more practical for use than Bob. Simon named it Cass (canine animal simulation system).

((Yay now she knows that everyone else has powers.))
Dr. Cassandra Hook
Dr. Hook nodded. "Yes, you're entirely right. My main hope is that all of the people like him get the early abilities before they've been developed more. What I'm very interested to see is whether or not these abilities can be passed down... I don't see any reason why they couldn't. If this becomes more popular thanks to my boss, hopefully everyone should just adjust. After all, if everyone has powers, then nobody really does."
"Your DNA has been very helpful to me, I've sequenced Max's already. It practically fell into place. Using data from the abilities I have, I should be able to produce enough power serums to keep the boss happy for a while. I'll introduce random mutations into the right gene sequence in my test rats, destroy them if their abilities are too powerful, and keep the ones with relatively harmless abilities."

Dr. Hook sighed. "It is certainly a valid concern... but I'm sure that there will be enough wannabe heroes to stop any wannabe supervillains. Even the police force could deal with them pretty easily." She laughed. "And you're one to talk... Simon is only 13 and he can probably summon up the blueprints for an atomic bomb. As for your DNA... well, I've been sequencing it in the background. It should be almost done... let me just transfer it to the viruses so I can make the serum."
Dr. Hook walked over and looked at the sequenced DNA. "That's odd. The power sequence in your DNA... is 99% identical to the Ignis serum. Some stray mutations here and there, but essentially the same thing." She frowned. "I would think you stole it, but I keep careful track of all my serums and I just finished development early yesterday morning. How did you get powers, anyway? Were you born with them? Did your parents have powers?"

Max grinned. For the first time in his life since he was a kid, he could actually do things without messing them up. He could read, watch movies, and just walk around town.

Dr. Cassandra Hook
"I know you didn't steal it, that would be impossible. I suppose it's just a coincidence... it's a relatively simple mutation, anyway. Sure, the serum is done, let me just inject it."
She injected the serum into the rat and it immediately started glowing. "I suppose that your more mutated version is displayed in the rat more quickly."
The rat skittered around in its cage, leaving a small trail of green fire. "Hmm... not as fine control... but I guess that's what training is for."
Suddenly, the rat exploded and appeared outside the cage, a couple feet above the ground. "Hey, wait! My research notes are over there!"
Dr. Hook ran toward her research notes, but the rat exploded again and teleported upwards, narrowly avoiding being sliced by the fan blades. It then teleported into the cage of one of the other rats. Dr. Hook ran there quickly and pressed a large red button on the side of the cage. Both rats fell over and died.
"Phew... emergency electric shocks... that was unexpected. Why did it teleport so... randomly? You would think it would know better than to fall through spinning fan blades or go back into a cage. But, I suppose that rats aren't the smartest of creatures..."

Xylla
After about an hour ((I'm just gonna assume that's how long everyone has been gone out of the hotel)) of pacing around and doing basic activities that involve one's sense of touch in the hotel room, Xyl finally decided to go look around in the city. When she got outside the hotel she then realized she couldn't go back since someone else had the key. Okay... well let's see what's in the city. I should probably go find a library because it is really noisy right now...
Xyl starting navigating her way through the city, trying to look for the nearest library. She kept her hand over her left ear to try avoiding any amplification of all the city noises. It kind of worked, but every now and then sounds would raise or lower its pitch or volume. However no one really cared, as it seemed all the locals were busy with their own thing. As she was waiting for a chance to go across one of the city crosswalks, she saw a buff guy in a black hoodie in the corner of her eye. Hmm... he seems like trouble...

Lee
When Haruka woke from his nap, he saw Lee walking around the floor to his side. He jolted upwards. "Ack! You're real!"
"Uh yeah, I've been trying to get you to realize that for awhile now. Anyways, can you tell me what's wrong with Lori? I've been trying to communicate with her but she just gives be these blank stares. It's rather unsettling." More than unsettling really. I hope she's okay...
Haruka rubbed his eyes and looked at Lee again. Gah, maybe my boss was right when he said I needed a vacation... except this isn't exactly helping. "You're talking about the little girl right?"
"Who else would I be talking about?" Lee replied impatiently.
"Right right. Well, I think she has amnesia."
If a stick figure could look rather saddened, Lee certainly pulled it off. Amnesia... This meant that Lori didn't remember anything at all, not even Lee. Haruka noticed that the stick figure was rather silent now, picking up on the fact that he was probably sad or anxious.
"Hey, uh... I'm sure she'll get her memories back eventually!" I can't believe I'm trying to cheer up a stick figure... are my long hours as a video game designer making me have hallucinations or is this all really real? Haruka still didn't quite believe all of these turns of events.
Lee started pacing around on the floor once again. "... So what does she remember?"
"Not much I don't think. She didn't even remember her name." The two remained silent for the next couple of minutes.

Psycho
He woke up in some sort of cabin. Outside, a snow storm was raging. He looked down at himself. In a bed. An old, rag bed- certainly nothing like the jail cell bed he was used to.
"What do I remember...?"
Lloyd played back the last few hours in his head. The warden was about to strike... He issued the command for Lock to teleport them out of there... And then...
A few hours ago... or, rather, hundreds of years in the future:
The flash of fire, signifying a pyromancer's teleport. Everyone was unconscious during the transportation except for Lloyd... but something very strange was going on. He, along with everyone else, was sort of floating in limbo. But two new people were there- twins. Also unconscious. "Inmates?" Lloyd inquired. Then, the surroundings started to become clear... it was like earth, but distorted. Distance was impossible to grasp- there was a beach, but was it far away or not? Were they... floating in mid-air? Then, it hit him. Space travel- something had gone wrong with the teleport. He looked at the buildings that started to take shape. Shorter than what he remembered... with wider streets... "The past! I read about this!" He noticed a distortion where the flame once was- like a portal. It started to close... but then it stopped- and started to open again. Something was trying to come through. Something dangerous.
In a blast of light, a humanoid machine boosted out with technology far surpassing anything Lloyd had ever seen. It was not of this world. An alien. Lloyd tried using central control on it, but he couldn't detect its brain- it was a robot. A cyborg? Whatever it was, it was staring right at him. He heard it emitting a sound, which he decoded into English in his mind:
INITIATE OPERATION "ABSOLUTE DEITY"
ENTITIES CURRENTLY IN OBJECTIVE-RELATED MEMORY:
-SUBJECT 000-899 TARGET-NATIVE NAME VIVIAN PRIORITY 9
-SUBJECT 000-900 TARGET-NATIVE NAME VICTOR PRIORITY 9

-TAKE FORM OF SUBJECT 285-681
-DESTROY SUBJECT 285-681
-INVESTIGATE DIMENSION UNDER PERSONA OF NATIVE NAME LLOYD WATSON ALTERNATIVE NAME PSYCHO
-SENT P.O.C.K.E.T. TO INVESTIGATE DIMENSION
TARGET SIGHTED
The machine used some sort of jet pack to boost itself right up to Lloyd, who was helpless in the undefined space.
SCANNING
12% ... 89% ... 100% SCAN COMPLETE
SUBJECT 285-681 FORM ACQUIRED
As soon as the transmission was finished, the machine started to transform. When it was complete, it was a perfect replica of Lloyd. He was shocked- he felt it. The machine had perfectly copied his appearance, memories and powers. And now it no longer had a use for him. It boosted at him with blinding speed and made a deafening impact against him. If not for the distorted physics, he would have been crushed the sheer power this machine possessed- "Heh, I guess whoever made this robot didn't count on it fighting in distorted space." As the surroundings become more clear and physics regained, the machine suddenly lost visual contact with him as he flew through space and into planet earth, hundreds of years ago in the distant 2014. That was all he remembered...
Back to present
"Strange... what WAS that thing? Where am I now? 2014?" He then sensed a person walking into his cabin room. The old woman must have been in her 60s, yet was living all the way out here. Lloyd examined her- Japanese. He looked through her brain and started to learn scraps of Japanese by the time she started to talk to him.
He managed to translate her dialogue to English as she spoke: "It is strange to see a boy with mismatched eyes at all, let alone out here atop Mount Fuji."

Name: Depends on form
Original Form: SUBJECT 000-001 NATIVE NAME ORIGIN
Psycho Form: SUBJECT 285-681 NATIVE NAME LLOYD WATSON ALTERNATIVE NAME PSYCHO
Ultimate Form: SUBJECT 000-001 NATIVE NAME ORIGIN AND SUBJECT 000-024 PROTECTION-ORDER-COMPLIANCE-KEEP-ENSURE-THINK-SYSTEM ALTERNATIVE NAME P.O.C.K.E.T.
Nicknames (Any of these will work): Origin, Clone, Psycho-Nega
Age: Undefined Variable
Gender: Undefined Variable
How long they've been in the prison: Technically, as long as P.O.C.K.E.T. has been.
Appearance: Depends on form-
Original Form: A humanoid machine, like a metal man. Has jet boosters installed in arms and legs, allowing for mach-7 flight and incredible melee attacks
Psycho Form: An exact copy of Psycho
Ultimate Form: Original Form, combined with P.O.C.K.E.T. in the form of super-dense body armor
Bio: In an unknown year. In an unknown parallel universe. Once upon a time there was a planet positioned 8 light years away from the titan sun. This planet was called Necron. There was only one type of life on Necron, fittingly named Necronians. The Necronians were a race of machines that specialized in self-imposed evolution. All operating under a central intelligence located at the core of the metal planet, the species specialized in adapting, evolving and colonizing. Soon, all planets, living or otherwise, were under control of the adapting mechanical creatures of planet Necron. The lived for only one goal, and that was to expand. Rule everything. These machines were incredibly intelligent, and soon discovered all the secrets to the physical universe. They then sought out to create the ultimate technology to reach a new universe. But, after eons of study, they could not find a way. Then, one day, they felt a disturbance in space. Victor and Vivian, two powerful beings who could bend space and time, had crossed paths with their universe. They immediately sent all of their droids to capture them and extract their power for personal gain. However, they failed, and the twins disappeared. The only droid that they got to follow them was an odd weapon called P.O.C.K.E.T. (Details relating to P.O.C.K.E.T. can be fount in Maria's bio). However, they would not quit. They examined any particles left behind, and found a way to scan across the multiverse whenever a disturbance was to be found again, and then found a way to hijack it. Most attempts after that were failures yet again, manly because of Vivian and Victor being in universes much too far away. But, once, they succeeded. They sent their most powerful soldier, SUBJECT 000-001 NATIVE NAME ORIGIN into the portal left behind to search for the remaining secrets to the multiverse. Their ultimate goal: create a singular ultimate entity that the would dub "GOD".
Power: Depends on form-
Original form: Mach 7 flight, super strength, steel plate armor (In their universe, steel was the most powerful material. Diamond does not exist in Necron's universe), ability to scan all memories, physical qualities and other abilities of any living thing, storing the data into a chip called a "Form", ability to transform based off of data stored in said "Form", essentially making a perfect copy of someone it can can later transform into. Commands a weapon known as P.O.C.K.E.T. which is used to investigate earth
Psycho form: All of Psycho's powers.
Ultimate form: All of Original form's powers, plus manipulation of P.O.C.K.E.T. to be used as, but not limited to: A laser cannon, a pellet gun, a flak shield, and a sword. Not at the same time, of course.
Weaknesses: When it took Psycho's memories, it could not read any of the memories prior to being zapped with the lightning bolt, as he was insane and the data was corrupted. Recalling events that occurred before the jail break proves troublesome to Origin. It will encounter an error and will be unable to continue if it attempts to scan Mirror. Also, Ryker Z's mechanical arm is impossible to scan, as it can only scan living things. Therefore, since it has no blueprint for the arm separately, it cannot correctly scan Ryker Z. Not immune to bullets or nuclear warheads.
Are you okay with your character potentially falling in love?: NEGATIVE!
Chibi: Unavailable- I will draw the Original and Ultimate forms later.
Other: If Mirror touches Orgin while it is in Psycho Form, she will transform into Psycho. If she touches Origin while it is in Original or Ultimate form, nothing will happen. Origin is intended to the the main antagonist, and has a main goal of multi-universal domination.

Psycho-Nega
"Lloyd" was soon sitting in the movie theater, watching a movie about a man wearing blue tights that could fly and possessed super strength. In a particularly hilarious scene involving the mustache-clad Nemesis being defeated at the hands of the super hero and his manipulation of the cement truck, the entire theater burst out in laughter, "Lloyd" included.
As they walked out of the theater, discussing scenes they had liked...
Mirror pointed something out. "You know, Lloyd, you sure have changed. Hehe, I remember when you kept threatening to kill me every day!" She giggled.
"Lloyd" was somewhat startled at the sudden internal revelation that the information he had lost to corruption must have been important, something involving attempted murder... it concluded that the best way to handle the situation was to laugh, then say that "he" had to use the restroom.
***
Once Origin was alone, it processed data. "P.O.C.K.E.T. should be investigating the planet. In fact, why don't I summon part of it?" In a matter of exactly 13.89 seconds, a tiny cube slipped into the bathroom through a vent. Origin then spent the next 24 seconds obtaining information about the planet and its inhabitants.
What really stuck out to it, however, was this one very pressing piece of alarming information: Lloyd Watson was still alive. Location: Mount Fuji, Japan.

((Nice Job setting this one up, but just so you know, If your robot acts like that the entire time, Xyl will hear his thoughts once and know immediately, so that's a weakness, also, Is real Loyd going to find his way to everyone else at any point?))

((Also zen, that's gonna be hard with steel armor, he couldn't go near Lock to even try to copy him, Finally, remember NO GM-ing this dude seems really powerful, and we don't want him to have to be defeated immediately and in a drawn-out fashion, we still need time for other plot points to happen))
((All in all make sure origin is not too powerful, as his main weakness seems to be only when he is Psycho))

Lock
After talking with Doctor Hook, Lock stepped out of the research building. I was around noon, and he had a decent amount of money on him, so perhaps he wouldn't go back to the house until a bit later. Lock had located a public school nearby and decided to check it out, He was 19 So he could probably pass as 17, he walked into a random class and sat in the back, just listening.

((Also, Is origin able to copy central control? As you said Physically Lloyd has not powers at all))

((Wow. Just wow. This is why you build your laser grenades beforehand, people. So that you are prepared for alien invasions. Kudos to Zen for thinking of that one.))
E
E was feeling good. His last employer had been quite satisfied with the job he'd done. Now that the secretary of state was dead, his pay would be deposited into a blank, untraceable puppet account where he could access it with a different disguise. Now, as for forged ID cards, he'd need to get some new ones. He'd depleted most of his store, selling the most recent one to a drunk man during last night's poker game. But before he could do anything about that, he had more pressing matters to deal with. He got into one of his cars, a sleek Mercedes with black tinted windows, and pulled off his hoodie, revealing a pristine white shirt underneath. He pulled on a dark jacket, re-combed his hair, and sprayed on a hint of cologne. By the time he was finished, he looked like a handsome 30-ish man on his way to a business meeting.
He drove up to the front of an unassuming building and entered. He briskly strode to the front desk, inquired about directions, and took the elevator up. Once there, he sat down across from another man. "Mr. Craig! so good to see you!" the man exclaimed.
"I really don't have time for this," answered "Craig". "Where is the formula. Don't tell me that doctor lady still has cold feet."
"Oh, don't worry about Cassandra, she came around. She just delivered it to our last customer. Besides, as long as you're not using it for anything malicious, why not sell it to you?"
"I only want it for my own study. And I'm not taking it now. You will take the time to develop it, perfect it, and you will keep the most powerful serum from each batch you make for me. The longer you spend on it, the better it'll be, and I only want the best. And for your troubles, I will give you ten million US dollars for each serum you may provide."
"Of course, sir. Wonderful doing business with you."
"My regards. Good day."

Maxwell Carn
Max frowned. "Maybe he didn't want to be reminded of his time in the asylum. But you're right, he's definitely gotten a lot easier to be around now. The advantages of not being insane, I suppose."
Dr. Cassandra Hook
As soon as Lock left, she turned back to the DNA. She labelled the Lock serum Ignis-Ω and the Max serum Apophis. She decided to put them in her lockbox, under some papers, labelled as "Highly Reactive: DO NOT USE." Better safe than sorry. Suddenly, the phone rang.
"Hello, this is Dr. Cassandra Hook, how may I help you?"
"Hello, this is Larry. I had a question to ask you. Did, um... Mr. Leonard Blackstone cause a little scene outside of the research lab?"
"Yes, I'm so sorry about that. He signed the waiver, though, so don't worry."
"No, no, that's not a problem. Did you know that there's a viral video on Youtube of it?"
"What? A VIDEO? This is disastrous!"
"No, it's perfect for publicity! Did you see how much he scared that hoodlum while deftly avoiding doing real damage? He probably turned that kid from a life of crime!"
This guy is hopeless... "Um, maybe. Are you sure he's the best person for-"
"Yes! It's perfect! After a couple more special customers, we can use him in marketing! And speaking of which, be sure to develop more serums. We have a very... important customer who is interested in our business. There might be a raise in it for you..."

Maria
She felt different somehow. Some of hair had become silver in color and shimmered slightly in the light. She found out that she could insert her hair into non porous surfaces. She also found out that she could input signals into these objects so she could make a group of pebbles move for a certain distance if she commanded them too even after she removed her hair. With her hair in the object, on the other hand, the object would obey her indefinitely. She tried to make a tree move since it would be interesting, but it did not seem to want to move.
P.O.C.K.E.T. was still flying around as usual. She had a lot of free time. She decided to walk around the town to see if she could perhaps find a cake store.
