Introduction

RP Theme

In the mega-city of Tokyoronto, circa 2017, we've seen many few changes in technology, but there's been some pretty cool stuff. HHD (Hyper High Definition) has become popular, putting HD and 3D TV's alike to shame. Light books are a new fad, having upgraded from the kindle and other such similar gadgets. Numerous 'futuristic' fashions like the 'Flying 50's' or the 'Tron Glow' have been coming out, but people stick to whatever the hell they want to wear for now. Only a few cars can fly, so don't get your hopes up. But hey, they got these hovership things trying to replace helicopters and stuff, so…that's cool, right? well, we've got more vending machines and tech on every corner for all kinds of random, crazy shit….Uhhh….Weapons have advanced fairly well. Not as many lasers as we wanted, but now regular bullet shooting guns look cooler and are more effective. Yes, there are hover boards. And Holograms. Yeah. totes cool, right? right.

Okay, If you're too lazy to give a damn about what I said above, let's just get to the point: These days, it seems to be quite a popular occupation to have, bounty hunting I mean. Seriously, what other job can you handcuff people, Use dangerous weapons like magnums, high power explosives, battering rams, tasers, chainsaws, and the like? You can abuse your power and do what the wimpy cops call 'Police Brutality' in order to punish dangerous criminals, and give them what they deserve, legally getting away with various crimes of your own all in the name of pursuing your target. And you actually get paid for this.

Neat, Huh?

Bounty Hunters also get their own place to stay in where they can analyze data, get drunk, practice in the shooting range, and screw around. See, due to their methods being so effective, they're treated almost the same as the local police of the Tokyoronto Police Department. In a way, they're like the special forces unit of things. Their extreme tactics have taken out mafia members and operations, urban terrorism, street gangs, Bail Jumpers, Jaywalkers, child molesters, hippies, and other forces of evil.
Their methods can be violent, and bloody, or violent, but non-lethal. They can also be silent, stealthy, and extra violent.

Things seemed to be okay until shit started going down by way of science. Ah, science. What a wonderful thing! made television, guns, drugs, and other wonderful items we use in our everyday lives. Mutants began to run rampant. On the first three hours, it was fun, and freaking awesome. But then it became another staple of the Bounty Hunter's diet, hunting down monsters, human and mutant alike, whether it be the outer or inner aspects of the target. It really began to get messed up when there was suddenly a terrorist group against the government. Only the difficulty with stopping them was that they had ESP based abilities. Yes, psychic terrorists. Apparently these bastards want to take revenge on the government, even though it was an outside group that turned them into telekinetic spy murderers.

And so, the war on crime and Psionics begins…

((Overkill much?))

Amelia was surprised how hard he could hit. She was just barely holding on to being awake. Amelia needed Toni to save her. She hated having to rely on somebody else but in this case she had no choice. She sent out a mental cry to Toni, hoping that it would wake him. She tried to until she passed out cold.

Toni was started awake by a cry. He looked around and saw a faint outline that was Jack and Nina. He also saw a slumped figure that was Amelia. Toni knew that he had to to help her at all costs. He limped over there, he saw that Amelia was passed out and bleeding. "What have you done, Jack? Have you no shame, beating a woman? I thought hurting a woman was something that we never did. Why would you start now."

((Not my best, Though it was all I could pull out of my thick skull.))

"What did she do to you? Are you ill?" Asked Jack. "She was the one that crashed our helicopter. She's got powers stronger than that army guy there. Ask Nina, or Yoko. They'll tell you well enough what has been seen. She's probably been playing you for a fool. And if you still don't believe us, well, I'm afraid I'd sooner take you in as a suspect too than take my chances."

He re-assumed his fighting stance, and stared Toni down. Brando however, being knocked out, didn't know what was going on. So he decided to play to this god fearing fool's feeble mind, adjusting his mental voice so he could speak to Toni.

"My child…" Began a strong voice, that pounded into Toni's skull. "The true enemy isn't the ones who possess powerful gifts. They are here to cleanse the corruption with you. See the truth, as your allies have reached the final point: they can no longer be entrusted with justice. They have harmed this innocent woman, and you must save her. Join them, and allow them to realize the truth of their power: I, the almighty have bestowed it upon them to bring right where there is wrong…"

"Tell me now." Demanded Jack. "What is 'God's' wish for this woman? Is he going to save a potential murderer? Do I have to raise these fists against you, or for your sake, should I put her in a cell and wait until our judicial system sorts her out?"

"Gods wish is..." Toni started, he was looking as his own two hands. How many lives had he taken with these hands, and for what? Because. he thought go was speaking to him to do so. Now with the voice in his head, telling him what he must do. Toni just started laughing hysterically. He had cracked finally, he walked closer to Jack. He knew Jack was no push over when it came to hand to hand fighting. More often than not Toni lost to Jack but, Jack never saw what he could do when he tried.

Toni grabbed Jacks throat with a quickness that would beat a snakes. His mission was to save the girl. No matter what. He started crushing Jacks throat with the strength of 20 men. He saw Jacks eyes start to bulge out of his skull. That's when he bashed Jack against the side of the building still holding on to him. He hit the building so hard it had a massive crack running down the side of it.

#, as written by Byte
It was obvious, that woman had nearly killed Jack, and Toni was right there to witness it. How could he not have noticed? Was he that thick-headed? Had this God thing really consumed his mind? Nothing made sense here. "Toni are you fucking mad?! You are choosing a complete, freakin' stranger over a colleague?!" Nina rushed over to the insane Priest as he was holding Jack's throat. She tried pulling the man away from Jack, pushing her forearm against the man's throat and press her gun on his forehead. "Choose wisely. Let him go, or I'll blow your brains out. See if God judges you like a servant of him." Rose narrowed her brown eyes, the gun, and her forearm pressing ever so forceful. Not matter how much she hated religion, or one who practices such things. And, literally despised Toni. This was madness, and shouldn't end like it.

Jack was being beaten pretty badly. Toni seemed to have some kind of training, even if it wasn't martial arts. He took the attack, now feeling pain more on par with his. Well, except for the fact this brutality was not as concentrated. Jack roared out in rage, smashing a hard backfist into the building, and causing it to start crumbling. Toni trained well, and Jack respected that up until now, but only one of them took the time to become a martial arts fighter.

"You sure you're not Jesus?" Jack playfully taunted, not taking Toni seriously. "I've been waiting for you to catch up to my base level for a while, and I can see you've been putting some good time in for those guns of yours" He complimented, noting the size of Toni's arms in comparison to his own. He pulled his left arm back, gripping almost fruitlessly at Toni's wrist, and unleashing a knife hand chop onto Toni's bicep, followed by a kick to the other man's side, careful of Nina, as he stood next to the girl.

"Toni, C'mon. This is insane. Why would god tell you its okay for these three to attack weaponry?"

Brando sent another message. He mentally laughed at the sheer stupidity...

"The weapons had to be destroyed. Do you see the woman, or the soldier carrying arms? The soldier knew this well, and wanted to destroy the weapons. A Small step, but it was for peace…"

"Did you see the woman carrying arms, all they wanted was to destroy the arms. It might have a violent step but it was for peace. Get that pea shooter out of my face, you stupid whore." Toni said grabbing the barrel of the gun and crushing it with his free hand. It might have been the arm that had been shot, but he had enough strength to crush the barrel. He hated them all, constantly bashing him for the religion he practiced. Never once had he tried converting them into become a christian. Toni had accepted that they didn't believe in God. He had enough of the constant bashing.

When Jack attacked him, Toni just shrugged it off. Had been paying attention, the bullet wouldn't have pierced his skin. "Jack, give up. You've lost there isn't anything that can break my Kung-Fu grip." He tighten his grip on the bounty hunter. He now slammed Jack into the ground causing a slight tremor.


(( You have no Idea, how good it felt to say Kung-Fu grip.))

"Kung Fu grip?!" Shouted a confused Jack, trying to get free. "Now I call bullshit! You don't even know a normal style like Bajiquan!!"

The pain seared through, and Jack felt the tremor well. But this was going too far, and it had to end. No more going easy on Toni.

"If you think crushing that gun is worth shit…" Began Jack, gaining a blue glow about him, an aura of power, "Then I'm afraid you haven't been training hard enough."

All too easily, Jack climbed to his feet, the effect of pain lessening, but the grip itself still stuck onto him like cement. He hopped into the air, flipping over toni to get behind him, the other man clenching tightly, as Jack used an elbow strike to the spinal chord, with the force of a wooly mammoth, using the combination of precision, power, and skill that martial arts had to offer, and inciting an internal electrocution of sorts known as a 'meridian shock' by striking one of the various points on the body. Damaging Toni on the internal level had to mean something...

Following the strike, he rammed a shoulder into Toni's back, the hand still gripped on him, which was what he was counting on, as he went for a submission attack: An Arm Lock! but, this was no ordinary arm lock, for Toni was to land on his stomach instead of his back, as per a regular arm lock. Instead, Jack would land on Toni's back, and start pulling on the arm, sure to break some bones.

Jack would originally have demanded that Toni let go, and he could keep his arm, but Toni seemed to have really lost it this time, and that meant killing was an option if all else failed.

"Nina!" Roared Jack. "Regardless if I'm able to break his arm or not, we're running for it! Is that clear?!"

Most recent OOC posts in Concrete Jungle

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

Yeah. It's unfortunate that so many people probably fit that latter part of the quote and so few don't.

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

That quote is so true. That's the sad part.

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

XD

I was thinking of this quote in particular:

"I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ."

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

Choked on my crisps form laughter. She could probably do that for shits and giggles, though not without a bit of Nina-personality inside that quote. ^^;

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

I think Nina should quote Gandhi…

XD

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

Tsk, tsk. Posting without me are ya? Catching up right now.

Shitty post is shitty. Meh, it's a post nonetheless.

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

Yeah, sorry about that. :(

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

Bashing the religious freak is fun, yeah. (And, ironically, I happen to be a Catholic.) Also I just woke up, and wow you guys made a bunch of posts already! I'm gonna go catch up now.

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

I know, I got to admit bashing the relgious freak is fun.

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

Hey, gotta stay in character, no? Dun worry, all in good fun. ^^

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

Man, you people like bashing on the religious freak uh?

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

No, its fine. Even small details can ruin a plot. Ive removed the text from my posts up to where Tomas first meets Aaron.

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

I'm sorry too. There were a couple things about this day that really bothered me personally. And as soon as I saw that bit, I did NOT want anything to screw up the story. I took that small plot problem a bit far.

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

Ok, I'll send her a message saying that we have to start over. Again, I'm sorry.

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

Age and inexperience is not enough of an excuse for your character, dude. That's goku level naivete.' And it wasn't even played out for comedic purposes. Your character just literally let in a complete outsider who has no authority or rank to even go in there, and from what I can see, it seems we were going to roll out the red carpet.

These bounty hunters are legally a form of law enforcement. Not a social club. Imagine if the actual police just started telling people where all their undercover officers and such were. In the middle of an important case…

If you want to fix the posts, you'd have to have Aixul edit hers too. And that'd take some serious collaboration. Instead, just clear out the posts, and start that meeting over if you want. He can still be nice, but he can't just be spilling details like that out loud in public. I understand that Kottori/Aaron are technically good guys, but the hunters don't know that yet.

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

I'm sorry if I'm mucking up your plot. My character just opens up to people easily do to age and inexperience. If you want, I can try changing a few posts.

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

Okay, I've looked back. Correct me I'm wrong, but this is what I've gathered from Levint and Aixulram's posts:

1. Tomas helps Aaron out of the crowd.

- This, I see no problems with.

2. Tomas doesn't even question why there's a little cat person running around in public among dozens of human men and women.

- A bit off...

3. Aaron and Kotori claim to be there to help any bounty hunters and start asking questions about shipments, questioning a BOUNTY HUNTER if I may add… Now, as cool as it is that someone claims to be trying to help you, they're asking some heavy questions, and you don't know whether or not to fully trust them, seeing as you just met them on the streets.

- Uh…Wha?

4. Tomas is totally cool with opening up to a little cat person (one which he just ran into on the street) that may or may not have revealed it was being piloted by someone, almost like a spy drone, which has just asked about shipments and bounty hunters. I'm sure this isn't gonna lead to any important info being revealed out loud.

- wut

5. He outright spills the details that there WAS a shipment, but says its at the DOCKS where the important vehicles and such are stored for BOUNTY HUNTERS ONLY and even says there's private business going on there of some form. The warehouse he named, I'm assuming is the one the gang went to for the helicopter?

- …

I know it says on the profile that Kotori and Aaron are trying to help, but Tomas is OPENING UP TO A COMPLETE STRANGER. And not just about his shoe size. But from what I've read on the posts, is willingly letting her come into the docks, presumably where the team is, and all their shit, which is essential to CRIME-FIGHTING. Yes, these bounty hunters can be violent, and unstable. But the people they hunt are criminals. And I doubt those details are supposed to be given out like free freaking samples.

Giving that kind of major info away so carelessly just because someone appears nice is unsettling. very unsettling. I dunno about you, but if Tomas just walks in with a cat person on his shoulder, I doubt Jack or the others will just sit there and be like 'Oh Hai :D' No, they'd get shifty, maybe not pull all their guns right away, but they wouldn't just let this little dude they barely even know just walk in like a V.I.P.

I am SORRY. This day had its downs for me, and I just had to say this.

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

Whoa whoa, Levint, why did you say the weapons were at the docks, and specifically name a warehouse? I'm not getting what's going on.

Re: [OOC] Concrete Jungle

Most of the major players are on. The ones we're missing is Aixulram, and KuruLesperance. Also I'm gonna make a Psychic. Its probably gonna be a female.
