Life Without Restraint

waterychan · **Tips:** 0.00 INK by **waterychan** on Fri Jan 25, 2008 2:09 am

You’ve been doing it your entire life, like a good little soldier. You’ve been told it’s good for you, and if you don’t do it you could die. But what if you stopped?

As an infant, your parents were told you had a disease. They called it the “Linoricosis Deficiency”, or LD for short. Luckily for you, the supplement “L15” would be your saviour. Taken every day, it can apparently help you live a normal, healthy life. If untaken for more than 7 days, you were told you could be hospitalized, or die.

One day, you receive an email with a list of names. To your surprise, your name is on this list. The sender is anonymous...untraceable.

Below the list, there are instructions for you, and everyone else on the list. They tell you to stop taking L15; that it isn’t meant to save your life at all; that your disease is a lie. The email informs you that the pills have been inhibiting some sort of strange ability.

The evidence shown in the email is convincing, if not frightening. And as per the instructions, you stop taking your pills.

After a week, you’re still healthy, and confused. You no longer know what to believe, you were lied to your entire life. But things can only get worse...

Within a few days of the one-week mark, you start to notice strange things happening around you. Your eyes must be playing tricks on you, but you know that isn’t true.

Little do you know that those responsible for L15 have discovered the email, and have sent out agents to “deal with you”.

The only way to figure out the secret is to find the anonymous sender.

-----------------------------------

If that makes no sense, here’s a summary of the plot:
Your character takes the pill L15 every day, and has since birth. He/she receives an anonymous email with a list of the names of everyone taking L15. He/she sees their name and continues to read what the email says. It claims that the pill is not meant to cure you, or even help you. It’s meant to inhibit abilities your character was born with.

The people responsible for the lies don’t wish for anyone to use these abilities, for that would cause chaos. The only way to stop that from happening was to lie to the parents, and give them a false cure.

Everyone who received the email stops taking their medication, and lives without complications for a full week. After the week is up, their abilities begin to show themselves, to your character’s surprise.

Now, everyone must search for the others on the list; as well as the person who originally sent the email. Then, they might find answers.

Unfortunately, the people behind the conspiracy discover the email, and send out agents. These agents must track down all on the list and bring them in. If they should fail, they must ‘eliminate’ the potential threats.

-----------------------------------

RULES: (please read)
- No godmodding, or ‘godlike’ abilities. Keep it within limits so as to not be TOO powerful.
- Keep it around PG-13. Some swearing is allowed, but again, within limits (be tasteful).
- TWO abilities maximum, please. If people have too many, it gets ridiculous.
- Be nice! All OOC conflict must be dealt with in a mature manner.
- Please keep characters between the ages of 16-22. Too young/old can be hard to manage. I’d like the characters to be sorta around the same age.
- Also, all characters must begin in the RP with when they first start realizing their abilities. The email was sent out to everyone all at the same time, so they would logically stop taking their medication around the same time. Therefore, all can be at the same level, no one is stronger or weaker. Make sense?

((It's present, lol. And I forgot to mention I wanted it to take place in Miami Florida, and all characters will be localized in that area. It makes it easier, and there's an actual reason for it.))

Muahaha, now I post my bios (yes there's two.)

Name: Riley Brennan
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Occupation (if any): Agent for the Organization
Abilities: Immune to any and all mental attacks/abilities
Appearance: 6'1'', almond hair kept messy to just below his ears. Olive green eyes, physically fit (if a bit lanky) with a slightly pale complexion. Wears a black suit, never wearing a tie(ties are optional, as long as the suit is kept neat).
Biography: Riley is the only agent who is an exception to the rule of "no abilities allowed". Before being employed, all applicants must get tested to see if they have 'LD'. Though he was born with the "disease", he was still allowed to work for the organization due to his outstanding promise in the field. He was the top of the list out of all applicant's test scores. He was also allowed to become an agent due to the nature of his ability. If he were to ever encounter someone who could read minds, or cause dementia, he would remain immune to it.
Other important info: Riley is not the typical "agent type". His messy hair and young appearance/attitude make him seem out of place when surrounded by others from the organization. He is committed to his work, however, and will always give 110%. His personality is easygoing, extroverted, happy-go-lucky and a tad immature in contrast to his strong work ethic.

Name: Kent Dawson
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Occupation (if any): Agent for the Organization
Abilities: None
Appearance: 6'0'', dirty blonde hair (with a few greys) buzz cut, army style. Amber brown eyes, bulky and physically fit with a dark tan. Wears the same, typical black suit, with a navy blue tie (usually).
Biography: Not much is known about Kent, for he doesn't disclose his personal life to many. He has been working for the organization for 5 years, and takes his work seriously. He didn't have the best test scores, so he works harder than most to make up for it.
Other important info: Riley Brennan's partner for 3 months and has taken a liking to him. He doesn't smile much, but has a sense of humour and has been opening up since meeting Riley. He has no idea of Riley's ability.

Tenma Uchiha · **Tips:** 0.00 INK by **Tenma Uchiha** on Sat Jan 26, 2008 3:58 pm

She was ashamed about it for some while and didn't tell anyone. Later about a month Asami decided to tell her friends they shun her at first then came around. Asami and her family had some fall out now that she knows and is scared that at any moment she might die.

Other important info: At times Asami gets really mad and feels like theair is circling ariund her, gets extremely hot uncontrollably at times, if she thinks about liquid or a place with water it will start to rain lightly, or when she walks barefoot it's like she can sink into the ground and become one with it. When Asami recieved the e-mail she decided to ignore it but, it seemed so tempting and she loved a dare. Even if it was a dare she gave herself. After some time the unexplainable small tricks that seemed to happen to her got stronger but not by much.

((OOC: Time to get it started! Feel free to jump in at any point. Sorry it's so long.))

A loud high pitched noise erupted through Riley's cell phone as he received a page. He sighed heavily, pulling the cell from his pocket and reading what the page said. Kent sat beside him, awaiting the same page. Within a few seconds, his own cell phone beeped and he read his own page. They simply stated "Come to head office".

"I hate that noise. I can't figure out how to set it to vibrate either. Every page is like a dart through my skull." Riley laughed, standing up and heading to the door. Kent merely smirked at his partner, rising from his own chair and following.

As they walked to the elevator, a fellow employee nodded to Kent and glanced at Riley, "Hey new guy, how's it going?"

Riley smiled, nodding back, "I'm good." He didn't know the other employee's name and didn't mind to learn it. When he was far enough away, Riley turned to Kent, "I've been here 3 months, when will they stop calling me 'new guy'?"

Kent patted him on the back and stated, "I got called 'new guy' for a year...you better get used to it." To which Riley ran his hand through his messy hair and mockingly furrowed his brow to immitate Kent.

Upon entering the head office, their supervisor lifted his head. An older, large man, balding at the top of his head (but trying to hide it with a combover), he seemed to take up more of his chair than was physically possible. He was simply the messenger for the higher-ups, no one of real importance. But he still managed to hold authority over his underlings. "They have a new case for you two." he spat out.

"What is it?" Kent asked, always eager.

The man handed them each a file folder and looked back at his desk, "That's all, now go take care of it."

The two of them left the head office, opening the folders and reading them as they walked. The first page was a copy of an email sent to a long list of people, none of whom either of the men had heard of. "Isn't this a little...unimportant? We're the head agents, we usually get the tough cases." Kent frowned, reading the email.

Riley finished reading it, flipping to the next page. "Maybe you're not seeing the bigger picture..." he pointed to the page he was on. Kent flipped through, finding the same page and taking a look at it. His eyes widened slightly and he almost lost his composure. He had never seemed so shaken, since he took pride in his ability to hold a straight face through almost anything. "They can't be serious...superhumans? Seriously?"

"I don't know, but they seem to have a lot of proof. These people must be dangerous, which is why we were chosen for the case." Riley closed the folder, having finished reading it all.

Kent regained his usual calm stature, closing his own folder. "Ok, well let's get ready to leave."

After gathering their supplies, hiding their guns in holsters under their coats, they left the complex. It was only one of the seven local buildings the organization owned and was far out of reach from the general population. Finding it would be rather impossible for anyone who didn't already know of it's location.

Kent got into the driver's seat of the standard silver chevrolet camaro, which they had been issued for being the best agents in the field. Riley never got to drive, but was perfectly content in the passenger seat. He did his best thinking when he didn't have to worry about controlling a vehicle. "So how are we gonna find them? The addresses aren't exactly consistent...I'm thinking they're fake." Riley spoke first, reading the list of names and addresses he had been given.

"I know, they must have been tampered with somehow. They're definitely fake. But either way, we can find them if we work hard, which we always do. We'll find 'em, don't worry."

They continued driving, heading into the main part of Miami. This is going to be a long day... Riley thought to himself as he stared out the window.

Alisia woke up in her bed, startled. She sat up instantly and glanced at her clock, letting out a scream, she was late. She scrambled for her stuff, not realizing there was an odd glow coming from her. Alisia began to run down the street towards her school, the odd glow still clearly visible. People were watching her, giving her odd stares, Alisia had no idea why, she merely waved politely to them as she passed, woundering why they looked at her like that.

((Sorry its kinda short...))

Elysia yawned, attempting to smother the act with the back of one hand. Her shift was almost up, and it had been a long one.
Staring at the clock, she began to drum her long fingers on the counter of the ticket booth. It was just one of those days where the general populace wasn't interested in spending seven dollars to sit in a cool theater.
She sighed once more, sitting up and stretching her arms a bit. Then, out of sheer boredom, she began to play with the controls of the ticket deployment device (as her manager preferred to call it). Her fingers twitched, just the tiniest bit, and there came a soft, contented humming sound. As though the machinery were purring.
Elysia's mouth pulled into a light smile, and she wiggled her fingers, causing the buttons to light up in a neat little display. After a few moments of this play, however, she folded her hands back neatly on the counter, waiting for the rest of her shift to end.

Jesse stepped out of the shower. He slipped his clothes on, his red lifeguard boardshorts, a white tangtop, and sandals. Be ran a comb through his red hair and walked into the kitchen. He grabbed his an apple out of the fridge and bit a giant chunk out of the side and turned on the news. He wasn't paying much attention to it, as he grabbed his wallet and cell phone. Right he threw his apple away and walked towards the televison to turn it off, he heard an announcement about a breaking story.

"A ruckus has broke out at city hall. Controversy has broken out about the L15 supplement, most commonly used for the treatment of Linorosicosis Deficiency. Apparently, the actual effect of the medicine is under question. We don't yet know what the cause of the investigation is but will release the information as it is disclosed."

Jesse turned it off and walked to his cabinet. He grabbed the L15 off of a shelf and examined the bottle. Nothing seemed new, he had looked at the bottle tons of times before. His cell phone beeped and took it out of his pocket. His screen was flashing time for work. He shoved it back in his pocket and put the bottle back on the shelf and walked out his front door. He slipped into his Blue Mustang Convertable and drove towards the pier.

OOC: Uhh..sorry if my Bio seemed sorta half-baked :[

IC: With his hood on he kept his head low. Mark walked along the side walk and listened to his MP3 player. With the music playing and the sounds of cars passing by it was as if the cars themselves were in the songs, but that was one of the consequences of constantly moving so he wouldn't get killed while watching TV or making some calls or even going to the bathroom.

He increased the volume of his MP3 and continued walking. He saw a news report showing on 6 different TV sets from a store display. He took out one of the earphones so he could hear.

"A ruckus has broke out at city hall. Controversy has broken out about the L15 supplement, most commonly used for the treatment of Linorosicosis Deficiency. Apparently, the actual effect of the medicine is under question. We don't yet know what the cause of the investigation is but will release the information as it is disclosed."

"Pfft....idiots" He cursed. I'm just glad you're not here to see this...Marybel He thought to himself. He put his earphone back on and continued walking.

Wait...why am I listening to this? Oh well.....
