History: Sora and Zeebee were abandoned as orphans by their parents at a nearby orphanage. However, before their DNA could even be sequenced to learn things about them, they were suddenly adopted by the Lake couple. They themselves were actual people with special abilities, and recognized those traits in Sora and Zeebee. Therefore, they not only raised them, but trained them to use their abilities. And indeed, they had been born rather special.

However, one day, the scientists learned about the amazing abilities they had developed and the new ones they had learned, and came for them. Their father was murdered in the process, and their mother critically injured. The two of them were kidnapped, taken into the lab, and experimented on. As they had lived normal lives before, unlike the Rixy Siblings, getting stripped naked and experimented on like this almost broke their minds. And Sora was planned to be someone that was harvested, given the designation Sigma, to feed Zeebee's abilities further.

However, something happened before this occurred, and they were able to escape. They heard about and saw other test subjects, and even fought along side them, but in the end after everything settled it was decided they should all split up to avoid attracting attention. Well, they did that...mostly...

Equipment:

Electro-Whips

Electro-Blade

Thruster Packs (Micro Edition)

Shield Gauntlet

Particle Cannons



Supernatural Abilities:

Chronus: Zeebee can manipulate the clocks of time, and can alter things to his advantage. Its unclear of what the full capabilities of this power is, even to Zeebee, but he is doing a good job of using it.

Specter: Creates a perfect duplicate of himself, complete with his abilities and advantages. It also benefits from Sora's Link. This allows him to employ a wide range of tactics and multi task various objectives.

Superhuman Physical Stats: Nuff Said

Astral: Zeebee supposedly summons the power of starlight, and creates things from blasts to sword slashes.

Electric Current: Zeebee possesses an unusually high level of electricity which he can focus into attacks. However, his is stable so unless something weird happens or he gets excited, no electricity will jump out.

Adaptability: This was an ability he was born with, and has helped in and his brother develop new ones oddly enough.

Gravity Magic: Oddly enough, Zeebee can use Gravity Magic thanks to Sora.

So begins...

"In other words. Just keep walking." Cedric suggested. He had an incredibly high tolerance of repetition, monotony. Even the thought of being trapped in an infinite loop didn't seem to put him on edge as much as it should have. Turns out being tortured beyond existing had the side effect of making almost anything so long as he existed.

The hallway still seemed to be endless despite knowing it would end. A mixture of illusion and design no doubt, but end it would. And end it did.

Cedric could feel that they were closer, but still a long way off. They had arrived at an elevator lobby, a security panel next to the door. Cedric approached the panel, touched it softly, and it lit up. Blue for a moment, then red. "access denied." scrolled across the screen. He touched it again, and again, "access denied."

"Biometric? Magic based?" Cedric wondered aloud before pressing the panel again. Again the message flashed across the screen. Frustration boiled and he punched the screen, shattering the glass. "Damn computers." he swung one arm in the air and the elevator door ripped open violently. A quick look inside explained why the access had been denied. The elevator cable had been severed, it wasn't security at all, there was no elevator to access.

Cedric peered down the long shaft. "This wasn't decay. This was cut." he looked back at his companions, a flicker of mischief in his eyes. "Now why would they do that?"

"What is even more impressive was that they had an elevator..."

It appeared that this facility had been quite ahead of its time. Even though its magic based network system was no match for an electric one, it was clearly thought out through detail and design. The fact it even had a recognition system was truly incredible, and showed just how much it had in terms of funding and support. Which was odd, given that this was supposedly a private ancient magic research facility and not a government run facility.

"-------"

"Huh?"

"What?"

Suddenly, Sora and Zeebee turned back when they felt like they heard something. To normal and even abnormal people they would not have even recognized anything, but Sora and Zeebee had been...modified....to have hearing ranges outside normal people. As such, they could hear sound normal people could not perceive without some special power or gift.

"Did...something just say..."

"...die?"

Actually, to be exact they heard "Die Experimental Freaks", in a voice of cold rage as if it was judging them...and knew what they were. And that chilled them to the bone.

However, the two heard when Cedric commented it on them being cut, with a bit of intuition.

"My guess, either someone really hated what was down here or they did not want it getting out...or both..."

Sora and Zeebee did not scare easily. They were given Spartan like training, were attacked, kidnapped, and forced to go under scientific experimentation in front of crowds of people which was both humiliating and extremely painful, and then after they broke out had to be careful of people chasing them. But this place...had started giving them chills.

They could feel it. Their instincts could feel it. There was something dangerous here.

"So, shall we go down?"

But if they ran away every time they were afraid, they were taught they would never grow as people.

"Suppose so." Cedric replied and stepped into the openness of the shaft. He allowed himself to free fall past a number of floors before slowing himself with levitation. He was following feeling in the pit of his stomach like a hound, finally he came to a stop at a floor, he wasn't even sure how far down he had gone.

"This should get interesting." he waved a hand and the doors slid aside, much less violently this time. "Here there be monsters." he muttered to himself quietly. "You boys okay on the way down?" he called up as he stepped onto the floor, letting his levitation spell drop.

When his foot hit the floor he felt something, an eerie shift, like the hallway had reacted to his presence. He couldn't see a change, but something had, it was as if the unheard score of the scene had shifted, hinting to the unseen audience that darkness was near. He showed little sign of nervousness, but he unconsciously began rubbing his ring.

They were getting close now.

"Geronimo!"

Suddenly, Sora was falling all the way down at breakneck speed. In fact, he showed no signs of slowing down at all as if he would just impact the ground like it was nothing. And then...

Suddenly, Gravity inverted for Sora and he fell up. BUt actually, Sora did not invert gravity this time. He inverted the direction of the force he was falling at. As such, he seemed to fly up for a bit but then gravity took hold, corrected it, and he landed on his feet smoothly.

Zeebee meanwhile came down using some sort of automated zip line he installed.

"Was that really necessary?"

"Oi, you gotta have fun when you can on the job!"

"...its really hard to argue common sense with you when you use logic like that".

Zeebee disconnected himself from the line, as they looked forward into the hallway ahead.

And then when they entered...

"This is definently something's domain. Though it concerns me how its been alive all this tiem trapped down here...something tells me that it is hungry..."

Cedric made his way cautiously down the hall. The lights flickered, some were completely off. It was lined with doors, cages, some looked open. A specimen hall. He approached the first opening.

Torn open. "Damn." Cedric leaned in, the walls were stained with dried blood, but no remains. "What ever is down here was hungry. This happened years ago. What the hell is keeping this place running, and fed?" he turned back down the hall and a flash caught his eye, something moved around the corner. "We got company."

The hairs on the back of his neck stood on end. He didn't even need to reach out with mana, he felt it instinctively. Rubbing his hands together quickly, like he was trying to warm them, he ignited a fire that floated an inch above his palm. Holding his arm out stretched he approached the corner slowly.

As he turned the corner he was met with a blackness the light from his flame didn't penetrate. "Shit." Cedric threw the flame forward and twisted to his left, by sheer luck avoiding the stinger coming out of the dark. The massive paw that followed spun him around and backwards. Pitch darkness pulled back, slowly revealing a huge lion, from the top of its head two massive horns spiraled down around its ears like a big horned sheep. The massive front paws of the lion were followed by a grotesque rear, sharp pincer like legs and a long scorpion tail. A sick sound came from the creatures gut and grew into something like the sound of a roar, a hiss, and a garbage disposal all in one.

"Fuck you too." Cedric quipped and slapped the creature. This stunned the manticore for a moment, which Cedric used as a window to put space between himself and the creature, backing down the opposite hall, hoping to draw the creature in and give Sora and Zeebee the chance to get behind it. He wasn't sure if this plan backfired or not, because a purring sound emitted from the creature and the blackness engulfed the hall and rushed around him.

He quickly ignited another flame but was disappointed to see, or rather, not see it in his hand. The blackness was complete, he literally couldn't see his hand in front of his face and it was on fire. "Well that's a fun trick."

And Sora and Zeebee watched what was going on, Sora clicked his tongue. That was because of the annoyingness of what the Manticore was using.

If it was something that absorbed light or whatever, he could inverse it to release light making it become clear as day. However, what it was doing was filling the entire hall with darkness. And that was problematic. That was because if Sora inverted it, it would become an entire hallway filled with light. Forget about being blinded, that sheer amount of light would burn all their eyeballs out. Even magic and science combined would not be able to restore their sight. That was the problem.

Which pretty much meant...

"Wait...huh?"

And then Sora and Zeebee noticed they could see. Neither of them realized that this was partly to do with the scientists tinkering, but also to do with the Adaptability mutation.

With that, the two quickly sprang into action. Zeebee unleashed an electrical attack on the creature, powerful enough to superfry it...hopefully, while Sora took out two handguns loaded with enchanted ammo and shot it right into the creature's fleshy bits. The ammo, once inside the creature, produced a crimson flame inside the body to burn it from the inside, while Zeebee was burning it on the outside with massive amounts of electricity.

And yet...

It screeched something horrifying.

"Zeebee! Cedric!"

"Yeah?"

"I think we only pissed it off!"

Cedric could hear electrical crackling, gun shots, and a screech. He still couldn't see what was happening.

"I think we only pissed it off!" Sora proclaimed.

Back pedaling as quickly as he dared in the blackness. He focused on his breathing, slow, deep breaths. He had to even the field, and the only way to do that was to be sure the manticore couldn't see him.

But how was it seeing him in this darkness? He began casting various wards to mask different aspects he thought the creature could sense. Smell first, then heat. He stumbled over something in the hall just as he cast a silencing ward on himself, sending what ever it was careening away. While he didn't make a sound the object in question certainly did.

Suddenly he could feel the manticore, it was directly over him, he could feel the warmth from its breath. It had moved incredibly quickly to the noise, unnervingly so. Cedric closed his eyes in spite of the darkness, moved his hand carefully. Between the blasts of warm air and the sound of the creatures rear legs scratching the ground he gauged his aim.

A shard of ice formed suddenly, like the tip of a spear thrusting upwards. The creature shrieked again, but this time it was a wounded sound. For a moment the darkness pulled back, revealing the massive creature above him with the shard of ice peirced through its neck. Burn marks traced along its skin and bullet holes marked one side. The manticore hobbled forward and then  leapt away as the darkness eminated from it again, this time trailing away as the creature retreated to some distant corner to attempt to deal with its wounds. Thick dark blood streaked down the hall behind it, a large splotch of it covered the front of Cedric's suit.

Standing up slowly he steadied himself, and then hurried back towards the others. "It didn't look fatal, but it won't be looking for a fight any time soon."

He hadn't expected a manticore, especially one that could exude darkness like that. The idea that it would make a valuable study hadn't taken long to come to him, and to that end he was a glad the creature might survive its wounds.

"It was not just darkness that it exuded, if you think about it".

Zeebee mentioned that with a pondering face, as he touched the black floor...only he wiped it away, and it was white.

"I used enough power to turn that thing to charcoal, and yet its still alive. And Sora burned it from the inside out. It must have some sort of..."

"...heat resistance! But...a creature does not usually just get heat resistance unless..."

"...It was engineered that way, or evolved naturally, likely in settings that supported it. I suspect..."

"...the former. It makes the most sense. Not to mention..."

"...Several bullets were shot into it, yet it was able to keep moving like nothing happened".

The two of them finished each other's sentences as they spoke, Analyzing the details, the two had begun going over every inch of the area to learn what had happened, and why their attacks did not work. After all, that Manitcore seemed unusually resistant to being scorched from both the inside and out, so they had good reason to be concerned after all.

"It seems like there are going to be other unexpected annoyances, I bet".
