Containment

[Coolpikaaa]

At first, the massive room had been full of people. Every single person in the mall when the guys in black suits came. No one knew why they had taken everyone here, the guards never spoke to anyone, and all devices that could be used to communicate had been confiscated. Bunks, food, and other necessities had been provided and after the first week and a half, things mostly fell into a routine. People started to accept that they simply picked a bad time to go shopping at the mall, and men in armored suits came and took them here for no apparent reason. That was, until Lizzie, the youngest member of the group, changed.

She had been yelling at one of the guards, mad about how they wouldn't let her have any toys. Being the typical "facility guard", they completely ignored the little girl, until she ran up and kicked him in the shin. The guard went berserk, and lifted her right off the ground....and the oddest thing happened.

Lizzy suddenly became covered in spikes. Even stranger, the guard wasn't even mad. He seemed even happy at this outright display of powers. Him and his partner took the very confused Lizzie away, and they stopped posting guards inside the bunking area.

Everyone of course was completely blown away. Nobody knew what was going on in the first place, and now it was just completely bizarre. Slowly but surely however, more people started to "gain abilities". And each of these people in turn, were taken away, and never came back.

Of course, people tried to hide the fact they had new powers at all. Surely, being "taken away" was much worse than what they had here right? Some were lucky, they managed to keep their secret, but others simply weren't, their power sometimes being to powerful to contain, or causing outright changes in their body.

Either way, everyone was scared they would be caught. As the numbers dwindled, it was decided, something needed to be done....

((Whew! Welcome to the next RP in Coolpikaaa's "totally confusing" line! Basically you play as one of the standard humans who was unlucky enough to be at a certain Dojoian mall when disaster struck. They have been kidnapped from their families and sent to live in this containment camp of sorts, but that isn't even the worse part!

Everyone for some currently unexplained reason has started to mutate, giving them powers and abilities they never even dreamed of having before. However this turns out to be bad, as being discovered with powers gets you whisked away to who knows where.

What you want to do in this RP is basically escape and be reunited with your family and friends. Several of the questions will be answered as you progress, (the story currently revealed doesn't even scratch the surface!)
and it should be a fairly fun one to get us all out of this RP slump we seem to be in.

Please fill out the following form to begin.



Name: Simple enough, what your character calls itself.
Description: How your character looks and thinks.
Power: Ah, the fun part. Everyone in the RP slowly mutates into having a power, or several, at their disposal. Each power will come with it's weaknesses, and remember, anything too extravagant will get you immediately spotted by the guards and taken away. However, you really do want something good, as it is your only chance of escaping. I really hope to see some imaginative abilities here

But, If you are really stuck coming up with something, some examples of powers can be found here

Name: Alisia
Description: Alisia is your typical surly teen, with pimples galore, blonde hair dyed black in an emo cut and a build that suggest the possibility of low-willpower-anorexia. Maybe. Not that she'd tell you. *surly glare*
Power: Active empathy with a side of shapeshifting. Not only can she detect your feelings, she can make you feel what she wants. When scared, she sprouts small poisonous spikes all over her body.

((While (hopefully) more people join, we should get this started...))

Name: "Agoeb"
Description: Agoeb is a male teen that in actually appears much younger than he is. After arriving at the Housing Facility, he decided it best not to tell anyone his real name. They are all creepy people he never met before, why would he blabber his real identity?....>.>
Powers: An odd ability at that, he has the power to alter animal matter into plant, and control it. People who start fights often find themselves completely trapped in vines that seemingly came from their own bodies.

Flick....

Flick....

Flick....


Agoeb was bored. Using a dirty plastic spoon he stole from his latest dinner, he had up to this point, managed to amuse himself by pulling back and letting it fly up, clicking against the bed above him. Now it was getting boring...

Flick...

Flick...

"HEY! Would you cut that out!?"

The teen turned and stared at the head of the guy bunked above him in surprise. "Eh...uh...sorry!" he managed to say, before swinging his legs out over his own bed and setting off to wander the facility.

Scanning the room, he found a girl sitting against one of the walls. She seemed to be one of those emo kids, and probably wanted to be alone, and on any other day, he would have left her as is, but being bored and having never talked to her before, he tried to give it a go.

Name: Aron
Description: Aron isn't a kid who watches fashion trends, he just wears clothes that are simple and fitting. He somewhat outgoing, except Aron doesn't go to places he's unsure about (though he couldn't hide from the men in black suits). With more teens being taken away, Aron is patiently waiting to find the others like him who haven't been taken away yet. Then try to figure out how to get far away from this facility.
Power: Aron's first two eyes mutated to become more powerful and adaptable for new situations. Also, he is capable of spawning compound eyes that can perceive fast moving attacks. These eyes can move in and about his body with ease, to prevent someone from spotting them.
As for weaknesses, Aron's main vision will distort in placed under too much stress. This is minor, as it only lasts a few minutes after calming down, compared to his problematic sleep problems. He might feel normal after waking without disturbance, yet this still is a hindrance since it usually needing to sleep longer to satisfy the drive. Sleepwalking is included.

Silence is common amongst teens doomed to waiting until the development of their powers. Then snatched off at the moment a guard sees it, and taken to God-knows-where. Today's first exception was the repetition of Agoeb's spoon flicking. If his bunk mate didn't say anything he would have. You don't need highly sensitive ears to be annoyed by that.

~I wonder what that kid is doing?~

Raising his head above the covers, having top bunk provide Aron the elevation to spy on the captured teens. Aron noticed Agoeb wandering off somewhere. ~Might as well follow, he could have a super power if I'm lucky.~

Lucky or not, he never thought of telling anyone his mutation, unless he could place enoughl trust on them. Blabbering about your recently gained ability is second to telling the guards in stupidity. Aron silently climbed his bed to the floor. Following Agoeb seemed more interesting after each step.

Name: Gunther (Although he preffers to be called Sir Gunther or something to that effect...)
Description: A general anarchic teenage misanthrope filled to the brim with angst. Has a slightly muscular athletic build, dirty blonde hair, Blue eyes and wears a black lether jacket, Cargo pants and a beret
Power: Pyrokineses, as well as slightly tougher then average in endurance. Specializes in fighting. Dirty.


Name: Nort
Description: A short, Brunete, Pimplefaced nerd. Spent most of his life with various computers and electronics. Wears a set of track pants and a shirt with a pocket protector
Power: Technokineses, The ability to merge and almost become one with a machine just by putting his hand near or on it

Gunther stands in a corner. Waiting and occasionally flipping a pack of batteries in the air. In roughly a minute, A little nerdie fellow named nort comes rushing to him, exausted.

"So Cornhead, You got my 'Smokes and lighter?" asks gunther as he continues flipping the pack of batterys in the air. Nort quickly passes a carton of Donkey-Brand Cigerets and a small empty red flick lighter to Gunther. Without a moment of delay, Gunther swipes them from his hand and unpacks one of the cigerets from its box.

As Gunther keeps trying to get the lighter to ignight, Nort stands there as if Gunther has forgotten something. A minute later, Nort speaks up "Um, Gunther-Erm, Gunther Sir? We uh... had a bit of a deal you see, and I need that battery pack, because I..." Gunther puts both items away and pulls out the battery pack "You mean this thing?" Gunther smirks "Yeah, I suppose a deal is a deal" he says as he holds it way above Nort's head "You want it? Here, Take it" He smiles as nort keeps trying to reach for the small battery pack. "Whats that, Dumbpuff? You dont want it Clownskull? Well I suppose if you dont want it then I may as well keep it" Gunther laughs before storing it in his pocket. "Your a bad man!" yells Nort. "And what are you going to do about it? Call the gaurds? Cuz they will also grab you too, After all, Who gave me the Cigerets, Huh?

Nort sulks and walks away into a corner, pulling out half a broken cuiruit board and slowly rubbing his hand against it

After trying to get the lighter to ignight for a minute, he assumes that the lighter is empty. He swears and throws the lighter into the ground. What is he going to do? Call the gaurds because the little nerd gave him a bad lighter?

[Coolpikaaa]

Agoeb wandered left, then weaved back.

Yep, someone was following him.


"Hey!....Can I help you with something?" Agoeb said, turning around. The room was creepy enough without someone following you everywhere you went, and Agoeb had reasoned that a direct confrontation would nip this in the bud.

As he waited for an answer, he glanced at the girl he had been walking to, then over to one of the corners where a bully was holding a pack of batteries over some boy. This place was full of jerks.

((Man, what is up with all of these wonderous powers?! Let's see some horrible side-effects, people - consequences, limits, anything!))

[Coolpikaaa]

((Well 3kul, think a dirty concrete room that just barely fits all the people left inside it. Your needs are met, sure, but are just the absolute minimum of satisfaction. There really isn't much you want to wander to, unless your character is stupid enough to go to the door and taunt the guards just outside of it....

As well, every person in the room is interactive, why don't you start up a conversation with someone. They each have abilities, and making friends now, before major changes go down, will only benefit you later.

...Also I was just about to comment on the lack of debilitating abilities. Didn't you guys want to be like the guy that turned purple and was promptly taken away, presumably killed? ))

OOC: Oh goodie! *claps*

[Jent]

((I'll alter my profile in the morning. I'm not sure if this weakness is enough.))

Aron managed to stifle a yawn before it could alert Agoeb. ~Not . . . again . . .~

The past few days, or a similar equivalent with his problem of tracking time in this prison. A normal teen should sleep roughly nine hours a day to be their best. Aron's sleep patterns began to fluctuate. This possible could be rather advantageous if it stayed at the lower 'range' of change; less sleep without the dept is extremely beneficial. Unfortunately, the duration commonly stretches to about eleven hours a day coupled with periods of waking up to early. This so far hasn't been notice by the guards.

"Hey!....Can I help you with something?"

Before Agoeb noticed his indolent behavior, he reacted back while submerged in opaque slumber.

"SNORE!"

((Ah, he's sleeping like a sloppy angel. ))

[Coolpikaaa]

((You serious? Nine hours? That NEVER happens for me ))


"SNORE!"



....Seriously?


Agoeb stared in utter disbelief. The kid fell asleep. Mid conversation.
Of course, he hadn't been one to talk in the first place...

Worrying what to do now, Agoeb glanced around nervously. He couldn't just walk away, as instantaneous sleeping usually meant some sort of medical problem and he didn't want that to be on his hands. Plus now others were staring at him. Staring as if...

Oh crap.


They thought he had put the other boy to sleep! They all thought he had now turned into one of those dreaded muta-

"Ok buddy! Cut it out, it's not funny!" Agoeb said, nudging him rather sharply. For both of their sakes, it was important he woke up and ran with the illusion that they were just friends messing around. Or else...

Gunther takes one of the cigeretes from the carton and dangles it in his mouth before taking a look at whoever stands out. The room is fileld to the brim with various freaks and oddballs.

Bored out of his mind, He decides to flip an unlit cigeret at whoever is nearby before bending over and grabbing the lighter. Knowing that the lighter is empty, he still trys to light anouther cigerete, hoping that there is a small bit of fuel still inside of it. And suddenly, His thumb suddenly feels hot for no reason at all. He assumes that its just the flickering until a blue flame engulfs his entire thumb. "Ack!" He yells as he trys to wave his hand to extinguish the flame, accidently lighting his cigerete. And with The flame extinguished, he puts his hand in his leather jacket.

[Coolpikaaa]

A rather ragged woman laying on the concrete floor suddenly bolted up as a cigarette struck her on the forehead. It was that punk kid, the one who always bullied the little guy. Frankly, she had no trouble with him up to this point, but now it was personal. You had to watch your own interests right?

"Hey you little brat! Watch-" The woman stopped mid sentence, staring as Gunther's finger lit up like a bonfire. Then, her face slowly started to change, becoming absolutely ominous, bone chilling to look at.

Like the schoolkid who was just about to tattle, the grown woman mouthed out the word "Guards".

Then she opened her mouth to yell for real...


-Coolpikaaa

[Jent]

"Ok buddy! Cut it out, it's not funny!"

“Fudgeman . . . ?”

As Aron began to stir from his slumber, he replied to Agoeb's frantic plea rather slowly.

“I’m sorry for following you, okay? There’s nothing else to do here. Except maybe this.” Aron reaches into his right pocket, and takes out a piece of white chalk he kept from the mall. “Tic-tac-toe?"

((Posting from School . . .))

[drlupinmario]

Looking around, Gunther thinks fast on his feat and throws the empty lighter at her. His right thumb red and slightly burnt, he points to her and shouts "She has a weapon! Everyone get down!"

Nort manages to ignore all this commotion and continues to rub the broken cuiruit board in a almost-meditative state, humming to himself.
