Description

.:Name: Reggie Booker

Image

.:Gender: Male

.:Age: 18

.:Status: Anti-hero (super, border lining villainy and heroics)

.:Personality: Reggie's the kind of person who'd put self preservation above all, making him a less than stellar hero, but not all together a villain as he won't go out of his way to conquer or kill people that he feels don't deserve it. To him, every action is a means to an end and can be justified as such. He's somewhat selfish, but tries to put that aside as he feels it makes him look childish. However, it's sort of grafted to him due to the fact that he was an orphan at age seven. He doesn't know how, but he found himself without a family one day.

.:Appearance: Reggie stands at 6'1" and weighs 147 pounds without a strand of fat on him. He keeps his hair trimmed fairly well (all though refuses to get rid of his sideburns) and has long scars down his back that are covered by his shirt and jacket. He wears jeans, a sleeveless black shirt and a black over coat with combat boots. He also keeps a pair of finger-less gloves on when he's not seriously fighting as a self restraint. He keeps his powers to his finger tips when wearing them so they don't get ruined and he can practice more controlled variations of his abilities.

.:Superpower: Pyrokenesis (Fire creation/manipulation - Right hand) and Cryokenesis (Ice creation/manipulation - Left hand)

.:Weapons: His lighter and a steel rod.

.:History: Reggie's history is a haze, a mash of pain and absent pieces. Even to him, his past seems out of reach, a lost story that always hangs just past your sight. He remembers having a mom and a dad, a family that he was a part of. Then suddenly, he didn't. Or rather, he couldn't remember what happened to them. It seems like one day he woke up in a hospital, completely alone save for the steady beep of a heart monitor.

Slowly doctors poured into the room and Reggie became concerned. He was a kid, his entire world revolved around his family and they weren't there. This place scared him, as did the men and women in white coats and face masks surrounding his bed. He bombarded them with question after question. What happened? Why was he here? Where were his parents? Why did he feel so strange? The doctors ignored them all save for one.

They lied to him, told him his family's car had been hit by a truck and that his parents were resting in another place in the hospital. He knew they weren't telling the truth. He wasn't in any pain, not plugged into any strange machines or had the small pouches hanging over his bed like he had seen in so many T.V shows to help keep the patients happy. He could feel his anger building, so much so that the doctors had to restrain him. It threw him over the edge. Suddenly his right arm was enveloped in flames, the fire burning through the leather strap while his left arm was freezing, crystals of ice slicing their way through the second belt.

He broke free, his flames engulfing the room. It suddenly occurred to him though, these flames didn't hurt him. They were his, he controlled them and they obeyed him. The glass wall of the hospital room burst into shards that flew into the hallway. As the flames died behind him, he heard the doctors call for help. Two of them lay dead and a third was badly burnt but that's not what Reggie wanted. He just wanted to get out. He ran and ran, out of the hospital, as far as he could and never looked back.

.:Other: Reggie's always looking for people to work with. Seeing as how he can go to either end of the spectrum, he doesn't care who he teams up with as long as it furthers his own goals.
Reggie cannot be hurt by flames or ice he makes and has a resistance to them if they are created in any other fashion.

So begins...

Leather, metal, pain. Only a few of the unpleasant things Reggie could comprehend as he lay fastened to the gurney. Rolling his head to the side, he caught a glimpse of red from the next gurney over. Velocity was back from her day, but when did she get back? It's didn't matter, he finally decided, and began working at getting them free.

He clenched his hands, shards of ice forming on the skin of his wrists, shattering almost as quickly. They slowly garnered the effect he desired however, as after a few minutes, the leather straps sliced in half, freeing his hands. They quickly went to work undoing the other straps that held him to the metal platform. After a few moments of fumbling, Reggie finally managed to free himself, then began to work on Velocity's.

"Hold tight Red," He muttered, undoing her straps. "I know it hurts, everything here does. But it doesn't matter." Finally, the last strap came free and he extended his hand to her. "Because we're getting out, right now."

There was a fuzzy emphasis on most of Velo's senses. She felt utterly numb after today's "Work out", her brain thumping against her skull as she tried to rest. She was quite used to this pain however. If she wasn't feeling it herself, she was feeling it from someone else in the room. It had become quite a neutral feeling now, and Velocity didn't bother to try and ease it away.

SNAP

Her eyes sprung open at the sound, so close next to her. She blinked slowly, her flame coloured hair tussled around slightly as she drifted her head round to watch Reggie free himself. She let out a soft sigh, narrowing her eyes slightly. Trying for escape, again? She couldn't help it as she thought negatively about this. It never worked, and she presumed it never will...

However, as the darker haired teen came over and began dealing with her straps, she couldn't help but feel that adrenaline begin to pump through her. She narrowed her eyes a little as she sat up a little and looked at Reggie with a slightly dismissive look. "Actually, we're probably going to get ourselves killed. And you're going to be the one leading us to our demise." She looked at him directly in the eye, a hint of a smile growing in her lips but then quickly fading as she took his wrist and pulled herself to her feet. "Well come on then. Are we escaping or what?"

Reggie couldn't help but grin as Velocity rose to her feet, albeit a mischievous one. "C'mon Red. At least if we die, we'll put up one hell of a fight." Pushing his way through the first set of doors, he dragged Velocity along behind him, no doubt raising alarms as they ran.

"This way!" Reggie hissed as he turned a corner. Suddenly, the alarm became audible, a loud clanging echoing through the halls. "Fuck." He muttered under his breath. Spying his goal, Reggie threw several walls of ice between them and their escape, then glanced up at the barred window that stood between them and freedom. "Hold tight Red, time to get out."

Super-heating his hands, he deemed, was the fastest way to melt through them. "Just going to take a minute..." he whispered to himself as the metal began glowing red under his fists. Several shouts, followed by loud bangs however, alerted him that he didn't have mush time to work with. "Get ready to run!" He called over his shoulder.

Velocity tapped her foot impatientlywhile she waited, fingers entangling between one another whilst Reggie played with some window frame. A few bangs and Velo turned, seeing the ice wall Reggie had made before crumbling after some bullets indented themselves into it. A cautious glance over the wall and a huff, the red head turned towards him.

"Hate to sound impatient but, can you move a little faster please?!" she jumped a little as another bang shot through, creating a small hole through the wall. Cussing a little as bullets began to fly around their heads, she moved in a swift motion and grabbed a large chunk of ice that had fallen to the floor, holding it up as a make-do shield as Reggie continued.

However, it did seem the block of ice was crumbling fast, her hands constantly moving around the lump to keep hold of it. "REGGIE! HAUL YOUR ASS A LITTLE QUICKER PLEASE."

"Dammit woman I can only go so fast!" Reggie retorted as he felt his fingers meet his palms through the white hot metal. "There! Finally!" He exclaimed, prying the bars from their holds and kicking out the glass. "Move your ass Red, last chance!" He threw a shield of ice up around one arm, his other pulling Velocity toward the now open window. Without a moment's hesitation, he lifted her through the window and followed close behind. Behind him, he could hear the ice collapse completely, several shots and a searing pain in his left side. "Get moving kid, there's a long way to go yet!" He grunted through the pain.
