Just as the machine began to run the professor looked back at Adam and smirked. Just then the machine started to glitch showing signs of a system failure. "Shit what the hell is going on!?" He called out confused and angry. The computer monitor then said in a calm soul-less voice "Subject is uncooperative" The professors head snapped back to Adam as utter fury overcame him as he stormed over to him. "What did you do you little shit!? Answer me" The professor then slapped Adam across the face and repeated himself "ANSWER ME" A moment passed before Adams eyes shot open. Adam looked at the professor and said calmly "Now it's my turn" Just then Adam released a huge burst of heat knocking the Professor back and partially burning him while at the same time lighting his whole body on fire. The restraints on his chair soon melted too as he slowly got up. The 2 guards that escorted him there then drew their M16's pointing them right at Adam's head as one yelled "GET ON THE GROUND NOW!" Adam smirked as began walking towards them fire fully engulfing his body. They both then began firing round after round at him but to no avail. The bullets simply melted before they could even touch him. (And I will continue this after your post :) )
It wasn't long until she got there, and discovered the reason. Fire was everywhere, and her father was on fucking fire. "Shit!" she yelled and pushed through the crowed. There was another man on fire, but he didn't seem to be in pain, so she didn't worry with him. In another circumstance, that would have struck her as odd, but she had other things. Water. She needed water. There was a large bucket in the corner labeled 'emergency only'. Why would you need water for an emergency? Didn't they have sprinklers for that? She didn't really have time to wonder about that further, because the man on fire was getting closer and she couldn't really get over there. So she looked at the bucket of water and held out her hands, and suddenly the bucket lifted and rushed over to her father, pouring over his body and reducing him to more of a smolder. A very much in-pain smolder. "Help him!" Elise yelled and pushed two guards forward, towards her father. But they wouldn't go near him because of the fiery man. "I'll deal with this, you save my father!" she hissed, panicking. She was a stay-off-to-the-side person, and she didn't do orders very well. But she had to do something, right? So she stepped forward and looked at the man. Another experiment, perhaps? Maybe she could subdue him. "Could you maybe stop this for a second? I cannot be without a father, and the fire is going to kill him. Please- I'll help you do whatever you did this for" she whispered, holding out her hands in warning. The fire was quite hot and it pricked her skin and made her swelter.
She didn't like this, at all, but the guards had dragged her back to the hallway by this point. "Kid, you can't go making promises to an unstable thing like that" one of them said, trying to be nice. Always suck up to the boss's daughter, as they say. But that made her mad. Horribly mad. She had been one of those 'unstable things' not so long ago. "How dare you! I'd bet you picked up a normal man of the street and turned him into that, like you did to me!" she pushed forward, sending him to the floor. He reached for his gun, but he thought better of it, because he couldn't hurt her. She would kill him quicker than he could kill her, and he couldn't raise a finger if he respected his job. "Get lost" she huffed and pushed her way back through again, pushing away people as she went. "Hey, what did he ever do to you" she asked and pushed a gun away from a person on the front lines. Now she wanted to save him, getting him away from here. She had only survived because her father pulled her out, and he wouldn't get that luxury, from the looks of it. "Get lost, now. Go guard the exits. Your bullets will do no good, anyway" she yelled, and the guards look dumfounded. "Go. Die here, or stop him elsewhere" she said, a bit lower. A few of them thought it over and went off to some of the doors. A few moments later, the rest of them went. They trusted her, because she had helped them with their experiments and subduing others before- it hadn't been wrong then. Because she hadn't been one of the experiments.
But now she had been. One look at her father told her he was a goner- a shrived mess. She would have been sad- but he had never been much of a father, and he loved his work more than his family anyway- even died for it. She huffed and turned nodding her head. "Unstable thing my ass. Trust me but not another! I doubt I'm the unstable one. Or the mindless one"
She smiled to herself and got on her knees in front of a large vent. It was loose, from a few screws that had gone missing over the years. She pushed up the corner left, and it swung right- it always did. She pulled it all the way to the side and crawled in, not looking behind her to see if he had followed. She crawled for a while, then turned left, and crawled forward for a long time, and even had to slide down a long chute, until she came to some blinding light and a few rungs leading up to it. It was cheaper to get the air from the outside with a vacuum system then to air-condition it. The only problem was the vacuum, that pulled air in and made her hair blow back, even here. Up there and it would be almost hard to hold onto the rings. She sighed and began to climb the rings, climbing until she got to the top. This was the hard part. She focused on the grate that was pulling in air quickly and a few screws unhooked and it stopped pulling in air and swung outward. She huffed and pulled herself out in the air and into the city.
The facility was in the middle of town and she was now in a vacant alleyway a few houses from the facility- any closer and the air might be tainted with chemicals and therefore possibly kill them in such amounts and not in the open (they even had to clear out all the houses around the facility and turn them into smaller medical rooms up until this one, where a small old family lived) . She knew she had gone fairly fast, and it might take a few moments before he showed up- if he did at all- so she closed the gate and screwed the screws back in, allowing air to flow. That way, they wouldn't notice. She rested against the house and listened to the sounds of the city she was born in- people lined the streets, relentlessly demanding their product was better than others.

. It smelled sort of like rosemary inside, from all of the Purfume her mother used. That ment she was home. "Mom!" She shrieked and a very poised lady walked in from the stairs. "What, Hun?" She asked and walked forward. "Mom, I'm going away with a few friends-" she pointed behind her- a safe gesture if he had followed her in and if he hasn't "- and it's a camping trip. Going hiking in the mountains. I told you about it a few months ago, but we never got around to it. Anyway, today's the day. I just need to pack a few things an maybe some snacks" she smiled. Her mother couldn't hold her here- she was an adult legally, and her mother was forgetful. So she wouldn't remember it even if she had talked to her about camping. "Okay dear. Just a few days though... Your father is planning something for your birthday tommorow night and I don't think he would mind postponing it, but just don't be gone for more than a few days" her mother smiled and went over to the sink, where she began washing dishes like it was a new thing that she just had to try. Elise, however teared up at the notion of her father but didn't show it- she would find out soon enough.
So, Elise simply dashed up the marble steps and into her vast room. The place was huge, and she loved it. A bed that dominated only a corner of it, and it was a grand bed. She slung a large black bag onto the bed and put away a few of her more important items- a small easel and some soft oil chalk- a medium she didn't like all that much but it would be the easist to carry- along with a few canvases. "I can't live without my paintings" she said simply and grabbed another bag and went downstairs to collect food.

She dropped the bags onto a swiveling chair and got in front of a computer. "Dad kept all the files of everyone on here. You can look up yours, if you want. Here's mine" she tapped the screen a few times, and a file with her picture on it poped up and opened.
Subject is daughter of one of our renowned scientist, and is the perfect candidate for experimentation. Above mental capabilities and normal mental state.
Day one- Subject was introduced to the concept of brain waves being used to create 'real' things, outside of the body. Subject implanted with chips to enhance mental state.
It continued on like that, showing day by day what atrocities she had to face.
"I don't know what mental state it enhanced, but I don't see the help it gives me. I'm not any smarter than before" she smiled and held her hand out- a chair from the corner rolled quickly over. "Have a seat and read up on every mean thing that they have done" she sighed and walked to the corner.
Adam Fenix- Test subject 732
Subject was collected at age 5 after family was put down by order or Lt. Nervel, struggled a bit and became prime candidate for pyrotechnic experimentation.
Normal mental capacity with damaged mental state: Subject is considered extremely dangerous
Adam couldn't read anymore he just stared in shock after re-reading"Subject was collected at age 5 after family was put down by order of Lt. Nervel" slowly feeling his rage growing "Collected....Family put down... Lt. Nervel" He said softly to himself. He then touched the link of Lt. Nervel's name and his picture popped up. Adam stared at the picture taking in the man's cold icy smile. Just then Adam screamed out in utter fury and smashed the computer screen with his fist on fire. "THAT SON OF A BITCH IS A DEAD MAN" Adam roared out his body slowly lighting on fire again. "I'M GONNA RIP HIS FUCKING HEAD OFF"
Tom yawned as he walked into the brake room and poured himself a cup of coffee. He was pulling night duty because he was covering for a fellow officer, who was at his sister's wedding. He sat down at a table across from a guard.
"So anything happen Herald?" he asked the guard (who was on swing shift).
"Nope, and I don't see anything happening. I don't know why they even need guards. The computer security system seems to be able to everything just fine"
"Electricity does fail, so it is always good just to have something that does not need watts and amps." He sipped on his coffee, trying to wake himself up. Then suddenly, the alarms blared, and Tom spilled some of his hot coffee how himself.
"Jesus CHrist!" He yelled jumping up "What's up with this alarm?"
"I don't know" Herald said, grabbing his hat off the table, and pulling his mac 10 in front of him. Tom pulled out his side arms.
"Follow me" And he ran to the security room, he entered the code and entered with Herald hot on his heels. "What's going on here!" he said to the two guards at the computers.
"Experiment 732 has escaped and already attacked two people"
"What about the automated guns?" Tom asked.
"For some reason they wont come online, but I still have him on locator.. wait... some ones coming up to him, it's... Elisa Point..."
"Get Camera Visual" Tom commanded
"I'm trying sir, but they are also offline.... wait sir, they are moving off to a side room... They are using the air vents."
"Tell every guard to start surrounding the building to look for them"
"But this is pretty big.."
"Just do it!!" And with Tom's order, the guard relayed the order.
"How long until the the satellite comes around so we can track them outside?" THe guard tapped on his computer
"About 35 minuets sir...."
_____________________________
(35-40 minuets latter)
A guard came into Tom's office, and he quickly shut down his computer.
"Sir, satellite is coming into orbit. We'll have contact for the next 2 hours. They are ready whenever you are."
"Thank-you"

(10 minuets latter)
Thomas with 6 other men (who were armed to the teeth) were in the back of an armored van.
"Ok men, we have too targets Adam Fenix and Elisa Point. Adam has the ability to produce and shoot heat up to 3,000 deg. F. That is why we brought to blast shields with us. Elisa has the ability of telekinesis, that is why Josh is wearing that strange device on his head so that he can be resistant to it." he then opened up one of his two briefcases and started to hand out pistols
"Why do we need these sir?"
"Because they are specially made to shoot tungsten bullets"
"Why Tungsten sir?"
"BEcause his heat can most likely melt your lead bullets, and his heat can't melt tungsten. These guns are expensive. THe corporation will have your ass on a platter if you misuse them or waste bullets. Ahh, here we are" The armored car stopped and the men got out, too of them grabbing the blast shields. Tom was the last one out, he carried a briefcase (that had 10,000 dollars and a untraceable GPS computer, 2 strange devices and a note) behind his back, carefully dropped it when he got out of the car and kicked it under. He pulled out a hand-held device and started to search the empty lot around him. He soon bent over the dusted off an old key pad. He hooked his hand-held device up to it. A few seconds latter, there was a clank the spiral staircase came out of the ground.
"There we go" HE pocked the device and pulled out his pistol. The two men with the blast shields lead the way down, being as quite as possible. (These guys are specially trained, so they know how to be quiet)
There were many, to make sure the emergency was dealt with correctly. Fire, monoxide leak, unspecified emergency, or chemical spill. The button she happened to press was Chemical Spill. Even though it was probably too late and many people were already inside, every single exit and hole in the entire structure was closed off with lots of force making it airtight. The door they had exited was made of most-likely-even-missile proof glass (she didn't know, but one time she had taken a shotgun to it and not even a scratch) and even it pressed closer and locked in. Nothing moved, because the door that would let them out couldn't open until it decided they were fine to go. She didn't know what that entailed, but she soon found out.
Water sprayed down from the top of the machine-like structure they were now in (she didn't know what else it would be, as it was two very very strong glass doors and a very large block at the top of them that held a variety of emergency cleansing things). It was scolding hot and burned her skin, but soon it was followed by a spray of colder water. Air vents tried to turn them from soaking wet to damp, but because there were two bodies, not just one, it did little to no good. But because she was fairly certain the machine wasn't done (it wasn't, it had to sterilize them to make sure no chemicals got out. That involved very hot heat. It would be very uncomfortable) she turned to the glass door they had entered and smiled politely before moving the couch away. "Sorry!" she yelled over the hot air that was currently blowing her hair and body dry and making her sweat at the same time. Who's idea was this? This is like jumping into a fire she growled to herself as it stopped and the glass door on the other side clicked, signaling they could leave if they wanted. The corridor would lead them around and up after a few yards.
During the chemical shower Adam cringed at the cold water. Since his body was still heated the temperature change was cooling the flames which went strait to his nerves. Afterwards in the hot air Adam looked back at her and said smiling weakly"it's fine... I like it...What's your name by the way?" He called out to her
"They must know were here." One of them whispered. The one in the lead slowly continued down the stair case.
"Sir, the door way is block a large couch"
"Damn, they must taking an alternative exit. You" he pointed to the man behind him. "Go down there and help him move the couch and try to follow them. The rest of you, follow me!" And the soldiers went their separate ways. When they got to the top of the staircase, the door was shut and they keypad next to read 'Chem spill, air locked'. "Damn, they locked us in. Some one give me an EMP grenade." One of the solders tossed him one. He pulled the pin, pressed the button, then took a few steps down. A high pitched buzzing sound, then all the lights went off around them. They turned on their flash light and pointed at the sealing where the manual handle was. Tom went up to it and started to crank the door open. He opened it just enough so they could crawl through. When they each crawled out, the driver ran over to them.
"What's going on?" he asked.
"They blocked us off, and are probably taking a secondary exit." Tom looked around, there were houses sporadically around them. "The second exit has to be in this empty lot somewhere. Spread out and look for it" Tom pulled out the device from his pocket. Two yellow dots were moving away from him, but the screen would grow statically, and the dots would jump. "Damn, there must be lead down interfering with the satellite."
"We have to distract them. This is hidden, so they more than likely can't see us, but we can't take any chances. So, I'm going to distract them. You run when I say. They won't do that much to me, I don't think. I've helped them before. They owe me" she whispered, more to herself than to him. She reached down into her art bag until her fingers grasped a bright lime colored oil chalk. She had a few of them, this one wouldn't be missed. She held it out and then watched as it raised up and moved through the grass, over to their truck. A small giggle escaped her mouth as it moved over the car, slowly drawing out the words "Sorry, Lt. Nervel. Catch us if you can" before a small arrow was drawn, pointing to the nearest house- it was empty and there were a few passages that lead to it- but they were to other houses for other scientists emergency passages. Her father wasn't the only one who never stopped working.
She waited a few minutes for them to notice before pulling out another chalk- this one black- and pushing it forward at extreme speed. She let it go under the grass until it reached that house then lifted it up and made it move towards one of the guards, causing it to knock against his head. "Now" she whispered and used her powers to help her push the grate open. The second her feet touched the ground she was off, dashing into the woods. with her art bag and food bag in tow.
"Come on you little bastard" Then suddenly, the dots jumped far to his left, he looked there, it was a small forest. THen a scream to his left. One of the guards was throwing off his helmet, which was smoking.
"THe forest!" Tom yelled, and when he looked back, he saw 2 figures coming out from the ground and running towards it. He rushed back to the armored car and pulled out a barrett 50 cal and took a knee. He took aim right right at Elisa's head, adjusting for wind and bullet drop, but he quickly instead aimed for one of her bags and fired, It tore in half and a few cans of food exploded.
"Damn, head them off!" he shouted at the driver. Both the driver and co-driver got into the armored van. Tom quickly dived under the car and threw the suitcase into the back of the armored car, he quickly put a small explosive under the rear bumper just as the armored car took off. Tom then touched his ear.
"I need a bird in the sky now!"
"It'll be 4 minuets sir!"
"Just hurry!" and Tom stood their watched as the 6 guards took pop shots at them, while chasing them, and the armored car drawing closer.
She looked over to see if Adam had bolted, but didn't look for very long before the the armored tank came into view. They were still shooting, but thankfully no bullets found her. When the tank passed, she looked at the tank. There was something inside. A suitcase. "Well, maybe there is something useful inside..... can't hurt. If they put it in a goddamn tank, maybe I can use it." she smiled to herself and held out her hand as she laid on the branch. The back poped open and the suitcase slowly rose to her. She wasn't sure if anyone had seen her when the case rose to her, but she grasped it tightly before deciding she needed to distract them. She hooked the case over a branch and jumped down. "Hey!" she yelled before pushing her hands forward, making the armored tank move to the left and slam into a nearby tree.
Then she turned and started to run into the woods at her left, falling a tree every few yards just to make sure they knew where she was and maybe also have a hard time getting to her. "They would do much worse things to him. They owe me" she kept repeating as she ran.
