Evernaught City RP
You never meant to move here. Beneath the facade of the bustling work city you live in, there lies a plague: a plague of crime. In the stone labyrinth that is Evernaught city, five vigilantes have risen up to take on the crime.
The vigilantes don't have superpowers, aren't even all perfect. They wear masks. They have code names. They fight crime. The similarities to superheroes stop there.
Seven people can join. The positions are:
5 vigilantes
2 main villains
RULES:
No superpowers under any circumstances.
No OPness or impossile tech (like invisibility cloaks, none of that).
Name: Willomena Zora Bartholomew
Name as a "superhero": Will o' Wisp
WILL POST REST LATER

So I really love this rp, but I don't think I have time for Cricket this week. The reason I'm posting right now is I have really bad poison ivy (like my whole face is swollen, and my eye's closed shut) So please pray for me. I will hopefully be able to keep tabs on this story, but I can't actively join it. Thank you for your time, and don't let the vigilantes die.

Oh, so sorry! We'll pray for you!

Oh, you poor thing! Poison ivy is just awful. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Wishing you a speedy recovery! <3

Hope you don't mind if I use your character Starbringer!

The doorknob rattles. I tense. Someone's trying to get in. I hear a grunt from the other side of the wall. I get into position as best as I can with my injured leg. The door swings open. I lunge at the figure. "What the- Will!!!" I knock he or she out. Then I don't waste any time. I've got to get out of here. I can't stay with whoever this is just lying there. I don't know how to use any of the equipment. I put on my dobuk with a mask and pull a black hoodie over it. Now, how to get around. I can't walk or crawl. Suddenly inspiration hits. I strap a roller blade to my injured leg and push off. I open the door and lock it behind me. I start toward Master Tse's, the only place I can find refuge. On the way there I pass the cliffs. A scream pierces the air and causes me to lose balance. A few rocks slide off the edge. I peer over the side. It's them. Skylock and someone else are falling. My eyes widen. I make a split second decision. I race to Master Tse's for medical supplies and race back. I jump off the side of the cliff and land in a handstand. Silently I hand the kit to Will o wisp, who managed to break the two's fall. Her eyes narrow, searching me and I turn away. And I run.

Actually, I have no idea.

Hey, if nobody else is going to write, Gem can. I can't, I'm Rex and he's badly hurt. Again, @The Riddler, if you have the time, please post!

With all due respect, UNSUSPCTNGSTRYTLR, it is physically impossible to jump off a cliff and land in a handstand without shattering your arms, dislocating or breaking your spinal chord, falling on your head and getting a concussion.
In short, you would die.
Take this from an expirienced competitive gymnast. I doubt you wanted to kill Gem, so perhaps you can revise your last post? Also, Zandibar locked the door, so nobody could get in the house, and nobody could get out of the house.
Please understand, I am not saying this just to be critical. I simply want to keep this RP as realistic as we can. I'll write soon, if nobody else will!

I appreciate your support. Okay, so no jumping of cliffs. Hah, I doubt, Gem would have the guts to do that anyways. But I think Starbringer's character is a superhero so I think she might have the keys. So how bout this: instead of jumping of the cliff..... actually I don't know.

UNSUSPECTINGSTRYLLTR, I'm just going to pick up where Cockleburr left off. Sorry to ignore your post, but it's OP.
Will~
Will yelled as Zandibar's hands slipped from the rope. She was dashing, sprinting across the canyon floor-
and they stopped falling.
They hung in midair, Zandibar looking at Will in shock. Will pulled her hand back. Zandibar and Saana fell the rest of the way to the ground.
Zandibar shook her head. "Okay, Will. Whatever piece of tech you just used... you've been holding out on me."
Will shook her head. "I... I didn't use any tech..."
MEANWHILE
Leopold slammed the keyboard, reading the data with growing panic.
Subject Beta was no longer dormant.

Zandibar~
I look up a Will in disbelief.
"What do you mean, you didn't use any tech? You just halted our fall mid-air! That's impossible! It's impossible even with tech! How did that even happen?" I'm trembling. I could have died. I should have died, according to all laws of science. I was nearly twenty feet off the ground when I slipped. How in the world did I survive? How did Will stop my fall?
Will shrugs her arms in a helpless, confused gesture. She seems as scared as I feel. Something prods me in the ribs.
"Hey! Get off, Skylock! Ow, you're squashing me!" I roll away from Saana, who sits up, cradling her broken arm. She peers up at Will, saying, "Did that really just happen, or am I dead and hallucinating?" She pinches my arm, hard.
"Hey!"
"Nope, still alive. I'm not dreaming." I swat at her and she scoots away, sticking out her tounge. Will rolls her eyes, muttering,
"Whenever you two have finished acting like a couple of three year olds..."
Saana starts to laugh. I join in. It's wild, histericle laughter, like hyenas. Will blinks at us, then suddenly her mouth twiches, then she's laughing, too. And the three of us are laughing, crying, ecstatic that we're alive, that we're going to be alright.
Rex's eyelids suddenly flash open and his eyes meet Saana's. His gaze sharpens for an instant and he whispers, "Saana... do you... care?" Before she can respond, his eyes roll back and his mind seems to sink back into oblivion.
The three of us look around at each other, our laughter gone. Saana voices the question on all of our minds:
"How do we get him out of here?" Saana and I look up at Will. Her eyes widen and she shakes her head violently.
"No! No. I don't know how I did... that thing. And I'm not doing it again. I'm not!"
"Will'o'wisp, please! It could be his only chance!" Saana pleads.
"Why do you even care, Saana? I thought you hated each other," I ask curiously. Saana's eyes narrow.
"I- I do! I do. I definatly hate him," she informs me. I can't tell if she's lying or not. I open my mouth to inquire further but Will cuts in.
"It doesn't matter! We just need to get him out of here. Any ideas?"
"Just use that crazy power you have! Easy! Problem solved!" Saana shouts at her.
"Not happening!"
"Got any better ideas? I didn't think so."
(October 13, 2016 - 1:18 pm)
That's okay. I go crazy when I write, a bit too much. I like your version better anyways.
(October 13, 2016 - 2:41 pm)
Will's powers will be telekinesis and teleportation.
Willomena-
Will tried her best to keep her outer facade of calm.
She failed.
"We're taking Rex somehow, just... I'm not doing THAT!"
"Will," for once, Zandibar was acting calm, " do you think... well, Gemma is Subject Gamma... do you think you could be..."
Will's shoulders sank, defeated. "Subject Alpha or Beta."
At the word Beta, a strange change came over Will. She lifted her hand.
"Will?"
Will was no longer listening to Zandibar; she watched as Rex floated in the air, watched as blue fluid leaked from her own eyes.
"Will!" Zanzibar yelled. Rex was Bourne along.
"WILL!"
Will turned. Rex continued to levitate. Saana gaped.
Will couldn't help it. She let out a laugh.
And soon, both of them were laughing in fits. Sanaa joined in.
Will had always wanted to be a hero.
Now she was.
Congrats. pat yourself on the back, Will. Speaking of that, pat Gemma on the back too-
Gemma.
"WE HAVE TO GO!"
Will pelted away, Rex dragged along as he floated behind her.
They had left Gem alone.
The Scientific Institute could get her any minute now.
