The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 9 authors
It was a bright early morning at the the Alphas HQ. Everyone was asleep and was bound to wake up once the alarm went off. The day before had been the same as the day before that... and the day before that... and so forth and so on. No crime had been reported. All criminals were in jail. These kids had nothing to do. Until today. The alarm blared on, echoing throughout the base. It was time for breakfast, then morning training. As usual. An FBI agent would usual arrive at 9:30 to help them train. He was no expert at their powers, but he was a successful combat instructor. Derek opened his eyes, groaning. That sound of the blaring alarm drove him absolutely nuts! He couldn't take it... He jumped out of his bed and slipped on his clothes to go eat his breakfast.
Jason fiddled with his thumbs, nervously. He was still a little unsure about going against his sister... but... it was for her.... or so he thought... was he doing the right thing? Was he? Was he doing what was best for his sister? Jason wasn't sure... That girl... Ria... she said that the world would be better when they were done. And that other guy. Van? He was a little weird, but Jason trusted him. These people had all the power to do what was right for the world. The world would be a better place for everyone... Jason couldn't wait. But still... was going against his sister the right thing? He stood up from the couch and walked down the hall to the kitchen. Did his sister even know about his powers? Jason was trouble with all these thoughts, he didn't even notcie when he ran into Ria.
He grabbed a cup of coffee and sat back on the couch as he turned on the news. They should murders and crimes and even though it was horrible, it kept Ron humble humble to see that there was still something he couldn't stop. Ron looked over his shoulder wondering where the others were, he didn't see them when he was walking to the kitchen but when he had a objective he was focused and he always had his coffee in the morning. "Feels like it's gonna be a good day." He said with a sip.
Once before, Ria didn't care at all. She had her mind abilities, excelled in her studies, and if she was lazy in getting answers, she simply read the mind of one of the smarter pupils in the class and passed quite easily. Her powers were used to her own ends, and later aided her when she turned to crime after her fathers' death, and the fact she needed to support her mother. Why work and waste eight hours laboring for someone else when you could just get what you wanted under five minutes.....the answer seemes so obvious, and it was the route Ria took. However, one day didn't go as well as planned and she was caught.
A man who went by the name of Van Hakkyou, had came to her rescue. Curious about the young purple-haired man, she stuck with him, realising the plans he wished to make and devoted herself to the cause. Whether it was out for paying a debt, or if she truly meant it was for anyone to hazard a guess. The fact remained that she stood by Van's side, and right now, she walked slowly along the corridor, before stopping as she heard footsteps. She paused in her thoughts and movement for just a few moments, before she turned the corner as Jason ran into her, or more to be precise, he ran into her bosums rather than her.
Jason was a few years younger than Ria, whereas Ria was a few years younger than Van, so she was in the middle, yet was the one that held the group together. Well, the job was Van's, but she did it alot better, especially when Jason was in doubt, and she'd help ease his mind. Something she was very good at, or just seduce him and show he is something, which he was. Afterall, the skill he possessed was exceptional and a great asset to the cause, though he always thought of his sister. If he wanted her so badly, then why don't they pay her a visit and convince her to the cause.
Ria may be stunning and beautiful and had quite a few lads ask her out, but what tended to happen was that they then either chickened out, or Ria saw them as pathetic. Afterall, they didn't exactly have powers like the young silver-haired Jason and the big guy with shocking purple hair. Perhaps it was the hair that done it for her.....though convincing his sister was another thing entirely. She hadn't tried going through with seducing a girl before, but if his sister was like him, then it was possible.
Her slim finger weaved it's way to the bottom of Jason's chin before lifting it up softly so she had her breathing space again, "Well, well...what's the rush? or you come to see me?", bringing forth a sweet smile. She could totally be an actress, though she would just rule the stage and change the script entirely to revolve around her.
---
Derek slipped on his pants, but got too lazy to put on a shirt. He was hungry and wanted to eat, so he left his room with only a pair of jeans on. He made his way into the kitchen, with a harsh look on his face. Mornings did not do him well, and everyone knew that here... or so he hoped. As he walked into the kitchen, he noticed coffee already made. A small smirk slipped onto his lips as he poured the warm drink into a mug. Ron was always an early riser. He grabbed his mug and headed off into the living room, where Ron would probably be watching the news. Derek slipped onto the couch next to Ron, and drank a bit of his coffee. "Morning."
Sometimes, Ria simply couldn't help playing her games. Not only that, but working with two handsome guys sure was enticing aswell. She had the looks, the charm, the power, the strength, the cunning....in her mind, the list could go on and on, and if she wasn't worth something, then Van wouldn't of invited her to join him in the first place. What she wanted, was to win, and if there was one thing she wanted, she'd make sure she got it. It was what drove her, not to mention that once it was all over and they won, she'd have even more power, and the first thing she could do was bash the coppers who held her down. Then again, she couldn't help being the "Most Wanted".
The thought made her smile, but in doing so, she was brought back into reality to face someone else that had become part of her life....even if he had a weak mind. Fortunately for him, he had one of the greatest minds with him, and what she lacked in strength, Jason made up for with his. Course, she had some strength of her own, especially to compete in strength with the two guys she was with. Afterall, she'd rather fight than be at base, barking orders, and missing all the fun. Besides, how could anyone expect her to be successful in her heists and come out so easily. That was the one thing she had trouble with her powers, which was when there was too many to control at once, so when she couldn't do that, she'd have to use her stealth abilities and knocking them out with her hands, rather than her stunning looks.
However, there were those that just made Ria giggle inside with how they acted, and Jason was one of those, especially his sweet little face after he bumped into her, and then turning away from her. Was her face so bright that it was blinding to him. Well, she couldn't help it, as Jason then revealed what was on his mind, "I was just...thinking about my sister. I'm just worried I'll hurt her". She could of guessed it would of been about her sister. He worried too much, and often times, despite having the ability to reach into the mind of others, there were those that she could see right through them from past experience.
Though Jason had taken a step back and had looked away, Ria then closed the gap between them, as Jason went on, "I...", only to stop as Ria's hand gently weaved into his soft silvery hair. It sure was fascinating, and Ria loved fascinating things, as she then spoke softly, first continuing his sentence, "...shouldn't need to worry about a thing, for it'll come together. Just like a lost piece of a puzzle, the piece is found, and all fits into it's place", before adding her own with a little chuckle, "You sure sound cute when your worrying", a little tease.
However, it was Ria's job to put his mind at ease, and putting his mind at ease, was what he would do, as her left hand gently meandered round him and touched his right cheek, beckoning him to turn. If he did not, then her hand would slowly steer him in the right direction while she moved in the opposite direction so that their eyes would meet. Her expression changed to one of admiration, as she then spoke up again, "I mean no offence, as I truly admire how you worry for your sister, but you need to remember that this is the reason why we are here, why we are doing all this". In a way, she was envious of his sister, getting all this attention and worry, a man with the desire to help her. She'd never had such attention. She was always defending herself.
Her right hand moved to his shoulder, while her left hand moved from his cheek, to just below his neck, before slowly falling down, her fingers stroking his chest till she came to whereabouts his heart would be, as he carried on, "You have such a big heart Jason, but there are those out there who have the power to help your sister but won't. That's where we come in. We have the power to change the world, and we have it for a reason", even if she was flaunting her powers right now. How terrible was she! She pulled back from him a little so she weren't so close, but that both hands were on his shoulders, as she then smiled, "There are those who don't like what we do...afraid of the truth, afraid of what is real, but maybe, just maybe, we can convince them to do what is right...perhaps get your sister with us, so she is well and truly safe". That would surely be something he was hoping for, maybe for a present for the cutie, she'll go and get her herself, as a sweet smile shone.
Something awfully wrong that could actually change the whole world. He could have done by himself, but even his insanity said it is better to equip himself with some people so that there would be no flaw to his plans. "Let see..." He said to himself, as Hurting a hurtful pain came on his headset. As for Van, even though the lyrics are totally awful, he found that the meaning could be what would happen to those who don't support his plan in the nearest future, when this last one will by a success. He knew that the group that he was the leader was infamous for their acts, and it didn't bother him much at all. He would prefer to be disgraceful, then to be famous like those Alphas, which was his first target.
How long he will hold his plan? The timer already hit zero for a long time now. He smiled, transforming into an evil grin as he closed the monitor of his computer, setting it off for sleep. Fortunately, he wasn't bothered with any cables that could have come from his headphones, since he was constantly listening to music. There were special frequencies that only his glossy bracelet could emit to his headphones. As for now, nobody knew how to counter it, and that was as fine for him, but not so much for his enemies Truly, I think music is one of human's invention that I'm more proud of. After that, it will be discussed. He likes to discuss to himself; he thought that the only discussion that he really liked is the one with his own conscience.
Van ran down the corridors of the groups' place and heard the voice from the being that he liked the most, as for ally. "...shouldn't need to worry about a thing, for it'll come together. Just like a lost piece of a puzzle, the piece is found, and all fits into it's place" he heard through his music. Who could've she talk to? Either a new member whom she charmed, or...
He turned the corner; it was that guy again. How he could forget such kid? He wondered why did that young being - even though he was mature - had followed them. Surely foolish, again. "You are sure sound "idiotic"when your worrying" would've been the sentence he would have used if he was her. He listened even more; it was again about his sister. If he honestly thought so, why did he join them? He's truly a stupid kid who just had a place in his group. It was something he would like to explain to himself.
He walked in with the conversation as she finished with her speech that she gave to the kid, giving his best twisted grin. "Yes, we'll make sure that you and your sister will have a better place in this world full of sin. You shouldn't doubt about it, and we'll make sure so save as many souls we can through this plan. Besides, we need you; you have talent whom none of us have, and it will be great to make sure to reveal the truth that the government hide from there." He giggled to himself as he finished what he just said, looking at the ceiling for few seconds, and then at...who his face, again? Oh yes, Jason. He needs to write it down somewhere...maybe opening his brain and toss a paper with the name of the kid in his brain would help.
Jason's face turned red and hot. He didn't know how to reply to such a statement... He never had any girl talk to him like that. It was beyond weird for Jason. He wanted to step back, but he was just frozen, caught in her trance. The trance broke when Van walked into their little scene. It gave Jason some power to step back from Ria and look at Van. He listened to his master's words and took them in thoughtfully. Van scared him a little... but his ideals were right. "Yes, sir. I will do anything you ask." He told Van, bowing his head out of respect for the guy.
Jasper rubbed the sleep out of her hazy blue eyes, hissing all of the curse words that she could think of at the confounded alarm. Practically rolling out of her bed, she had to grab onto her side table to keep her balance. She struggled to untangle her earphones and shove them into her ears. She blared her music as loud as she could in an effort to remove the echoing noise of the alarm.
While she was not completely awake, yet, she still managed to wash her face and get dress reasonably quickly. Her outfit consisted of a long tan sweater over black leggings. She forced her small feet into a pair of brown heeled boots that came up to just below her knees. Her hair, purple and hanging in her face, was quickly tamed with a brush and weaved into a braid. When she decided that she looked somewhat presentable, Jasper switched off her music and made her way down to the kitchen for breakfast.
Coffee was made, so she poured some for herself in the biggest mug that she could find and spread jam onto a piece of bread before going out to see who all was awake already. She was met by Ron and Derek sitting in the livingroom. She acknowledged their presence with a nod in their direction and made herself comfortable in a chair next to Ron.
"Anything interesting on?" She muttered before taking a chunk out of her toast.
It is clear, and safe to say, that Ria certainly has a way with her words, and sure has an effect on people. Well, certainly has an affect on Jason since he hardly spoke in the duration that they were alone, before she heard footsteps and turned slightly to see Van and smiled. At about the same time, Jason backed off once again, as her smile widened. He sure was amusing, and also fun to play around with, though while she worked and used her powers and her gifted looks, she wondered if there would be anyone for her in the future once all this fighting is over. Then again, it was best to leave the future to the future, the past to the present, and the here and now...well, to the here and now.
"Yes, we'll make sure you and your sister will have a better place in this world full of sin. You shouldn't doubt about it, and we'll make sure to save as many souls we can through this plan. Besides, we need you; you have talent whom none of us have, and it will be great to make sure to reveal the truth that the government hide from there". It wasn't only Jason that amused her, but also the wild and twisted Van who intrigued her very much. She must of appealed to him in some way or another, if he was risking his cause to diving into danger to save her. She too was risking herself by joining him, but she loved risks, loved danger, and most importantly, she was actually doing something right for once *ironically*
It was probably wrong to telepathically connect with your boss, but Ria did all the same and felt like chuckling as his brain was rattling for who the guy she was seducing was...maybe he was jealous. Though at least Jason was more stable now, with Ria's comforting words which were then reinforced by the man leading them, "Yes, sir. I will do anything you ask", as he bowed to Van. Don't she get anything? she thought to herself, though she didn't really mean it. It was more rewarding to see how he acts round her. Ria wouldn't be so good at her job if she couldn't tell such things anyhow.
However, sometimes Ria simply couldn't help herself as she walked round behind him as he bowed, so when he got back up, she immediately had her hands either side of him, each holding onto his shoulder. The hands were enough, as her head hovered over his left shoulder so it looked like two heads were looking at Van, before she addressed Van, "He's wonderful ain't he", her eyes lighting up, sometimes she could not behave. However, she had to move on, so this time she did, "I hope you've not been working that magnificent brain of yours too hard Van......you have work for us?", she asked.
---
Derek looked up to see Jasper walk into the room. He sighed hearing her question. He drank a bit more out of his mug and stared at the tv, not even bothering to ask Jasper if she wanted to sit with them on the couch. She would either just sit on Derek, or make him move. Derek flinched, feeling a hand on his shoulder, then gave Ron and subtle glare. Derek was not a fan of the touching... and Ron just seemed to be such a touchy person. As he asked them for eggs, he simply ignored and took the remote into his hand. He browsed through the channels, looking for something good.
"He's wonderful, ain't he?" Was the question that was posed to him, though the question was rhetorical, and he already answered to that question. Jason is someone with talents, not likes those damned beings that only think that we are only jokes. He knew how raising against the government and all the power of the whole world will be an hard task. No, what he was thinking of? It will be an easy task. they think that they are protected against us when comes to fight, but again, they will fail. But our first problem on the list is the Alphas.
The risk of encounting the Alphas was high, too high. They much be eliminated, or in Jason's case, be able to convince them to walk in their shoes, and then no one could stop them. However, they are given reasons, and reasons are for weak. He always thought that the others wanted them to step down so they don't think to get all the power, which was easy for them. This was the first part of his plan, and if it works, nothing can stop them to progress to the final act of this Good ending night.
"I hope you've not been working that magnificent brain of yours too hard Van......you have work for us?" another question hit into his headphones, even though it couldn't be heard if he was a simple-minded being. "Not for the moment, I was just out of my office to check on my team." He gave a smile and tilted his head to the duo infront of him, or in that situation, a two headed human. He couldn't find how much Kia could be silly sometimes, but it was part of her act, he guessed.
"Though," he retook his sentence with, "We will get out, this afternoon. I want to spy the Alphas, if we have some way to enter in. I want as much information we can get from them, incase they would deny our offer." He wanted to show another twisted smile, a new meaning to his sentence, but he kept the soft smile to Jason, not wanting him to know what could happen to her sister if she refused too.
"Come back to me, please?" Rain pleaded with her brother. "You don't have to do anything - just leave them and come back to me." He shook his head forcefully. "I'm sorry. This will help in the future, I promise. I can't leave them." Rain stared at him in desperation. She could not think why he would do this - but she knew that she could not put up with this. "Then I will leave you." She turned and walked away. The tears that she had held in for so long started rolling down her face.
The alarm sounded through the room. Rain jerked awake, tears still glistening on her cheeks. She realised that it had only been a dream. "Jason..." she murmured into her pillow. She lay there a minute longer, trying to hold on to the image of her brother before they separated. After a minute or so, she felt that there was no use trying to ignore the alarm any longer. She got up and changed quickly into a long-sleeved shirt and skirt. Then, pulling on her favourite jacket, she went downstairs.
Entering the kitchen, Rain saw Jasper, Ron and Derek."Good morning," she greeted them softly. Grabbing a cup of tea and some cereal, she pulled out a chair and sat down. "Sorry I'm a little late today."
Jasper listened to halfheartedly to what Ron was saying. "Hmpf, not really. I'm not good for much when it comes to fighting crime..." She trailed off, trying to control her anger with herself. It frustrated her to no end that she couldn't control her powers as well as the others. Her coffee sparked a bit and she sighed. "I just have a headache from stunning that fat guy; he just did not want to go down." She placed the mug on the floor at her feet and massaged her temples. Jasper caught the remote and looked at it crossly before facing the T.V. and trying to change the channel using her powers. She only managed to make the screen go fuzzy for a few seconds, so she gave up and used the remote to change it to some sort of comedy.
"I'm going to talk to the guys about quieting the wake up alarm too, they can keep the emergency one but that's got to be a little quieter."
Jasper sneered at this, "don't bother, I've tried to ask them multiple times but obviously that didn't work." She turned to Derek, but he seemed even less happy to be awake than she was, so she decided not to say anything and placed the remote onto the armrest next to him.
"Anyone know the schedule today? I kind of blanked out after last night, was a little tired. I'd appreciate a day off, but the city does not seem to want to quit this crime thing!"
She stood up and followed her friend into the kitchen, standing behind him as he got the stuff together to make eggs. "No, maybe when you ask the guys about the alarm you can ask them for an extra schedule, I bet they'd be more than happy to print you out another one." She said sarcastically, smirking a bit.
Jasper eyed the pan with the eggs, but shook her head and walked to the other side of the kitchen where there was a container of muffins someone had given them a few days ago. "No thanks, I think I'm just gonna have one of these." She picked one up and bit a large chunk out of it. She pulled herself up onto the counter next to the stove and sat on it, crossing her legs and watching Ron make himself eggs.
Rain walked in and Jasper nodded in acknowledgment to her, a mouthful of muffin keeping her from saying anything to the younger girl. She swallowed, "it's fine; however I'd love to know how you slept through that bloody alarm. Oh, by the way, Ron's offering ten dollars to anyone who's brave enough to eat some of his eggs." She sent a mischievous smirk to her best friend. She hopped off of the counter and stood behind Rain.
"So, what's up, Squirt? Your eyes are all puffy." Jasper asked, squeezing Rain's shoulder's comfortingly.
It was barely a secret that Ron had a thing for Rain, but Ron couldn't tell if she had any feelings for him. He usually had to have Jasper to tell him things because even though Ron could crack a vault with his index finger and thumb, he couldn't crack girls sometimes. He tried so hard to, he could usually help them when need be and swore he learned a little more every day but found out there was even more the next. He kept up his warming smile as he looked between Rain and Jasper. He tilted his had and looked over to Derek watching TV. He knew Derek was a bit of a loner and didn't like to hang out most of the time but Ron kept pushing him, hoping that he would warm up to them over the years. He had his good moments and that was plenty for Ron. "Hey man you sure you're not hungry?" He leaned asking Derek but didn't expect a answer.
He saw out of the corner of his eye Agent Berkman walking past the doorway to the living room and figured he go talk to him. "Hey I'll bee back later," He got up and walked to the other side of the table and put his hand next to Rain's on the table and leaned down next to her. "Hey, if you need to talk later, my doors always open, OK?" He said with a smile as he looked into her eyes. He stood up and nudged Jasper as he passed. "Your in charge kid, try not to bring upon the apocalypse." He said teasing her as he left.
Agent Berkman was like a care taker, the team voiced their request or complaints to him and he did what he could. "Hey Berk! Wait up!" Ron shouted after him as he chased him. "Ron it's agent Berkman, I've told you that for years." "Yea but you look more like a Berk. Hey I had a few things I wanted to run by you." "I'm sure you do Ron." Berkman said looking over his papers as he kept walking. "So first, the alarm man, for wake up can't we just get it turned down a little? It's more of a siren then a alarm." "I don't think I can Ron it's.." "Just a little man, come on please?" "I'll see what I can do, what else?" "Well, christmas is coming up, I was wondering if we could get christmas day off." Berkman stopped and turned to Ron. "Ron, you know we can't do that, you guys are our front force. What happens if something big happens, you get the night anyway." "Don't act like that's normal Berk, come on man, some of these kids haven't had a right christmas in years. Can't we get one day, one day, to relax and enjoy ourselves?" Berkman thought about it and sighed as he nodded a little. "I will try, I can't promise anything." "I really appreciate it man. Hey do you have a copy of today's schedule? Practice, Patrol, all of that jazz?" Berkman pulled a paper out and handed it to him as he turned and walked down the hall. "Thanks Berk!" He yelled after him as he turned back down the hall, reading the paper as he headed back to the group.
Alright, so Van was the big boss man, but still, didn't mean Ria had to be left out, and being left out was not something Ria liked. So she didn't have the power to control the elements like Van had, or have strong muscles and fight like Jason, but she had such a great mind and many great battles was fought by a battle of the minds, and it was the greater of the minds that won. For those who have not yet caught on, they would realise that the greatest mind for such battles would be Ria, and they'd need to think twice before daring to attack her. Brawn wasn't the only way to win, especially since she was like a puppeteer who could control brawny men. She loved it!
Sometimes she could be out of control, but she'd make sure she was the star of the show, even if it meant acting crazy sometimes. Like once when she unleashed her womanly wiles, she got the police to shoot the guys after her. Men sure were handy. They could have all the brawn in the world, but against all the brains in the world....I don't think so. Though with her powers, she could know exactly what the two men round her was thinking as Jason asked himself if he was wonderful, while Van recognised him with talents. Oh she loved putting her little finger in, as she then used one of her powers to speak to Jason telepathically as Van spoke, "Of course you are wonderful Jason. You are a great asset, with your strength and your abilities, it means that our dream of living in peace for all people will be much quicker, and it's all thanks to you my dear".
Ria paused as her ears perked as Van spoke about their next mission, "to spy on the Alphas". Excellent! as a smile crept upon her face, "I want as much information we can get from them, incase they would deny our offer". Her eyes looked up to Van, "They would be foolish if they do deny us. Afterall, right now they are being used and being called freaks behind their back. It will be.....so tragic.......if they were so misled, but we can at least, offer a hand....". In response, the back of her finger stroked Jason's cheek, "Don't worry, we'll do all we can to save your sister, and then, you need not worry no more, except the cause".
Oh she was loving Jason's strawberry face, as her wide smile turned to a thin one, as she then committed to another telepathic communication with Jason after she leaned closer and saw his hand before pulling back to her original posture, while her left hand went behind her back, "There's no need to worry, I'll do all I can to ensure we get your sister out, though it would be an idea to not shake so much or Van will know. You know, you can stop shaking if you hold someone else's hand. Not sure about your face, but if you shake, it shows you are afraid and you want to be with us when we try to convince your sister, cos if you do, you better look ready. My hand's behind my back for you. Van won't know. Sharpen up. I need you with me when we go.....", which was partly true. Afterall, she could only attack by the mind, or form mentally generated weapons, but they only done so much and only focus on one opponent.
After communicating to Jason as quickly as possible so there wasn't too long a delay, she then spoke again, "We'll be ready to move in once you give the order", so Van would get the idea that her silence would be her reassuring him to be ready, as she then spoke to him telepathically, "Your so cruel, then again, so am I *chuckle* We make such a pair, but if Jase here loses his focus, he could get himself into trouble, and then I'll lose my play-thing. Besides, while he's here, it saves you a job of watching my back, as you know....though, I really wanna have some fun! ....We can speak more if you ask for a private word. Afterall, I need to rest my head for whatever we do...".
That was the last one, for now.....
The alarm echoed throughout Erin’s room, bouncing on the walls and giving her a headache. Groaning loudly, she extended her hand outside the covers and pointed to the source of the sound. “Shut up!” she yelled, and then using her powers, she lowered the sound of the alarm. Lazily, she stood up kicking her duvet to the floor and punched the button shutting the noise off. She smiled arrogantly and skipped to her bathroom. She took a quick shower, ran a comb through her crimson red hair, pulling it up into a messy pony-tail and dressed up in casual clothing; just worn out jeans, a gray sweatshirt and tennis shoes.
She slowly descended the stairs, taking her time and yawning loudly in the process. Hopping down the last steps, she finally arrived to the main floor, where the living room and kitchen where located. She walked through the living room doorway and spotted almost everyone there. “G’morning grasshoppers,” she called to them. Erin loved to make fun of the fact that she was the oldest of them all, but of course she acted like one of the youngest with her immature and arrogant personality.
Quickly crossing the distance between the living room and the other rooms, she arrived to her personal food temple: the kitchen. She made her way to the fridge and got out her beloved orange juice. “Ah! There you are!” she said when she found it. Grabbing a glass from the shelves, she poured the orange liquid into it and took a large gulp. She then made her way back into the living room and plopped down into an empty sofa and stared at the TV.
“Anything worth worrying about?” she asked in general.
At last he turned on the light, blinking a couple of times as his eyes adjusted before combing out his hair and splashing his face with some cold water. He left his room with the lights off and finally made his way downstairs just in time to watch Ron leave the kitchen. He glanced over where Derek sat with his quite self on the couch with Erin. He always ended up being the last one out of his room, since he usually took the longest time to get out of bed and get dressed. He then turned and entered the kitchen where Rain and Jasper were. "Ciao, guys!", he said with a friendly smile, "How's everyone's morning's coming? Also, is there some reason it smells like soggy burnt toast?", he asked as he made his way across the kitchen to pick up one of the muffins. He leaned against the counter and took a large bite. "I swear that alarm just keeps getting louder. Can't we all just get little personal alarms?" He mumbled through chewing before taking another bite.
Jasper nodded at Rain as she walked into the kitchen. "It's fine; however, I'd like to know how you slept through that bloody alarm. Oh, by the way, Ron's offering ten dollars to anyone who's brave enough to eat some of his eggs." Rain smiled a little at Jasper and shrugged. To be honest, she'd gotten used to the alarm by now; she didn't really mind it. But then again, that was Rain; she adapted pretty quickly without complaints. As for the eggs - well, Rain knew Ron's cooking well, and despite her feelings towards him, she didn't really want to try.
Deep down, Rain cared for Ron quite a lot. No, not really cared - she had stronger feelings that than for him. Never in a million years would she tell anyone, but it was hard, trying to keep him from knowing. She hadn't even told Jasper - that was how much she cared for him. And when Rain decided to keep things to herself, people had better start watching out - it definitely had to be big.
Jasper stood behind Rain and squeezed Rain's shoulder. "So, what's up, Squirt? Your eyes are all puffy." Rain ducked her head, eyes trained firmly on her cereal. "I... I dreamt about my brother again." She'd told the rest about her brother before. It wasn't a secret that she still missed him, but she probably never had a chance of him finding her. After all, she'd changed her name, and Daniels probably wasn't an uncommon last name anyway...
"It's okay. I'm fine - fine." Rain shook her head and resumed eating. She didn't feel like breaching this topic today with the rest.
"G'morning grasshoppers!" A welcome distraction came in the form of Erin. Rain liked Erin's bubbly personality, and was glad for her arrival; it meant that the others' attention would be taken off her for a little while. Rain waved at Erin cheerily.
"Ciao, guys!" Arthur followed a couple of minutes later. Rain smiled at him too. "I swear that alarm just keeps getting louder. Can't we all just get little personal alarms?" Rain shook her head at Arthur. "How long has it been - a couple of years? Shouldn't you have gotten used to it by now?" she asked.
Ron went into his room, making sure to leave his door open in case anyone needed to talk to him. He put his black jacket on with the wool collar over his white shirt. Putting on his skull cap and gloves, making sure he was ready and on top of his game. He tied up his boots tight and looked in the mirror making sure he looked alright. Ron sat on his bed flipping on the news again. They were talking about some movie shoot out on 6th and Washington so it was going to be crowded and jammed pack. He looked at his watch as this was prepping time. This was the only part of the day he really didn't like, He wasn't around anyone, he had to wait to go out with the others and be close to them. Now he didn't have to be around people 24/7 it was just that when he was a kid, his family wasn't around much. They were out working or had something to do and he spent many nights eating dinner by himself. He just wanted to be around his friends because he knew all to well what it was like to be alone.
Jasper almost choked on her muffin when she saw Ron attempt to eat his eggs. She pounded on her chest and had quite a bit of a coughing fit before she could say something snarky to Ron about his cooking skills and by the time she finished coughing he was out of the room, off chasing after Berkman.
"I... I dreamt about my brother again." Rain said quietly, looking down at her food glumly. Jasper had almost forgotten the girl that she was standing behind. She frowned and pursed her lips. She knew only what Rain had told about what had happened between her and her brother, and felt sorry for the poor girl despite the fact that Jasper had been an only child and didn't really know how it felt. Unlike Rain, very few people in the group knew about what had happened to Jasper's father. Very few meaning Ron. She wasn't as open about her past as some of the others, the only reason why Ron knew was because he had seen it while it was happening and Jasper couldn't do anything about that.
"Aw sweetie..." She cooed, not knowing what else to say. She wasn't really the comforting type and only showed this side of her to Rain. Jasper felt that they both had a sort of connection- family problems, just of different calibers.
"It's okay. I'm fine - fine." It was obvious that the conversation was over and Jasper nodded, giving the girl her space. She walked over to the fridge and poured herself a glass of chocolate milk and was drinking it when Erin walked in. Jasper nodded to the other girl casually and continued drinking. She then went to the sink and began washing it.
She was drying off the cup when Arthur walked in, "Ciao, guys! I swear that alarm just keeps getting louder. Can't we all just get little personal alarms?"
She smiled at the Italian and held up the cup as if proposing a toast. "Here here!" She exclaimed, "that's what I've been saying, but despite the millions of dollars they spent on making this fancy house for us, they seem to be completely adverse to squandering up a few bucks for some decent alarms."
"How long has it been - a couple of years? Shouldn't you have gotten used to it by now?" Jasper shot a look at Rain and turned to put the glass away in the cupboard .
"Uh Rain, I think you're the only one who's insane enough to 'get used' to that monstrosity. If I could, I swear I would make that thing explode. One day...I'm telling you." She snickered and walked out into the living room where Ron seemed to be debriefing the rest of the group on the schedule.
Ron's comment about Christmas caught her off guard. It was coming up and she was actually hoping they'd have some sort of work that day, the reason being that she hadn't even thought of what to get the others. They all meant so much to her, but she had no idea what they wanted or what to give them to tell them how she felt.
When the group broke to get ready for patrol, Jasper jogged up to her room to grab her jacket and a scarf. She would love to wear gloves but, unfortunately, having something on her hands hindered her already pathetic amount of power. She put on the jacket and buttoned it all the way up to her chin, then wrapped the scarf around her neck, preparing for the cold waiting for them outside. Finally, she grabbed her panda bear-shaped hat (a gift from Ron for Christmas last year) and made her way to Ron's room.
She stood in his open doorway and pulled the hat on over her purple hair and then watched enviously as her friend put on his gloves. Her hands always got so cold...
Jasper stood in his doorway and crossed her arms, "Skull themed winter-wear? Pretty bad ass if you ask me." She said sarcastically, "you get those in the discount bin at Wal Mart?"
Arthur stuffed the last bit of the muffin into his mouth. "That doesn't make it any quieter! You'd think after this long they'd shut it off. Of course, Erin probably just turns it down every morning..lucky." As he mumbled the last word Ron returned from wherever he'd disappeared to, Arthur hadn't been down early enough to see where, and began began with his normal routine of letting them know the days schedule. For the first few months that Arthur had joined, he'd always go over the schedule himself every morning, but eventually he just got used to Ron repeating it and he'd stopped reading it all together. He glanced over at Jasper for a moment as Ron read off the teams for today and a little smile pricked at his lips, but not enough to be noticed and he quickly moved his eyes back onto Ron as he continued. He'd worked with the purple-haired girl plenty of times before, but that never changed his excitement.
The girl probably already knew that Arthur had some feelings for her, saying as he attempted to confess his feelings only a couple of weeks after the girl joined Alpha, but she didn't waist any time turning him down. Back then, he didn't actually feel very strongly about her and really wasn't sure why he had been drawn to her, but over the past year or so he realized that he might actually have real feelings, which wasn't something that happened all too often for him. Even so, it wasn't entirely difficult to tell that she had her heart set on someone else.
"Good news is, Christmas Day, no training, no alarm, no work, we have that day off."
Arthur closed his eyes and his smile grew a little more. It had been a while since they'd all gotten a day off with no work, and it was going to be on a holiday as well. That sure gave him something to look forward to since the group hadn't had a real Christmas since they all got together.
"Besides that, let's pony up, get your gear ready and we'll meet here in a hour to leave. Stay safe as always and I'll make you a hot meal tonight."
"Maybe I should get hit by a car today..", he opened his eyes as he mumbled quickly, Ron's next sentence overlapping the end of his own.
"Pizza's on me tonight. Now let's go!"
(I'm going to assume we are in the wintery months ^^)
With that, Arthur returned upstairs and flipped on the light as he entered his bedroom. He removed the shirt and vest he'd put on earlier and changed into a dark, reddish-brown, V-neck sweater and put on a nice-looking, plain black jacket over top, leaving it unzipped as he loosely wrapped a pale red scarf around his neck. He also changed into a pair of black dress pants and slipped on his usual pair of casual dress shoes and brushed his teeth. Opening the mirror above his bathroom sink he pulled out a blank white bottle and popped open the lid, tipping it until two red , oval-shaped pills sat in the middle of his palm. He placed the bottle back in its original place and tossed the pills into his mouth, swallowing them without ease and then making his way back downstairs. He entered the living room and plopped down on his back across the longer couch with his feet propped up onto the armrest. Bringing up his left arm he let it rest over his eyes and the other hand rested on his stomach as he waited for the others.
He let her out of the hug and sat next to her again. "Anything you want to talk about?" He said wanting to get everything out in the air before they went on patrol. As much as he loved his friends when they were on patrol or a mission, that's what he was on. Just like a soldier in battle your head couldn't be anywhere else. "So, Arthur's in our group. Just give me the word and I'll leave you two alone." He said with a wink, "He's a nice guy Jas, and you deserve someone for you. If not him just think about dating, but know that I will judge them SO HARD!" He said with a smile as he stood, leaning down and kissing the top of her panda hat before walking out of the room.
On his way down the hall he passed Erin's room, he knocked on the door frame twice. "Hey Erin, it's Ron. Just wanted to make sure everything was cool." Erin was the only one on not on his team he hadn't talked to and plus he wanted to talk to her about her squad today. Ron probably came across as a little clingy in a way. He was usually butting in when people just wanted to be left alone and he was sure over the years everyone even Berkman had yelled at him for it but they all knew he was just looking out for them. Either making sure they were OK, or wanting to do something, and usually whatever they wanted to do. He wanted to make sure her head was on straight for patrol today and tell her about Rain and Derek. Derek wasn't much different but Rain seemed a little down this morning and he wanted Erin to know, to keep a eye out for her.

Derek looked down the hall to see Ron go into Erin's room. Then the other female on the team popped into his head; Rain. He felt bad for her. Poor thing had her brother fighting for the wrong side. But that was none of his business. Those were the choices they made. There was nothing to change that. The choices you make will change the rest of your life. Derek knew that personally. "All I heard was him shouting 'so hard'. That did not sound right to me."
Derek told her, looking back to her. Out of the whole team, Derek had to say that Jasper was probably the one he liked the most. She was generally calm and level-headed. It was nice to have someone like her around. The rest of the team bugged him, but he had to confess. He liked having others around. It was a nice change. He just wast't used to all of the touching and loving. It was strange to confused little Derek.
Jasper snickered at Rain. "Uh Rain, I think you're the only one who's insane enough to 'get used' to that monstrosity. If I could, I swear I would make that thing explode. One day... I'm telling you." Arthur jumped in. "That doesn't make it any quieter! You'd think after this long they'd shut it off. Of course, Erin probably just turns it down every morning... lucky." Rain shrugged and polished off the rest of her cereal. Just then, Ron started briefing them about that day's patrols.
"Brooklyn? Sounds good to me," Rain replied. "But patrol routes are incredibly... uninteresting. Anywho, see you guys in a tick." She got up, dumped her bowl in the sink and bounded upstairs.
In her room, Rain pulled on her winter hat and boots. After changing her skirt for a pair of jeans, she flopped backwards onto her bed, thinking about her family here.
Christmas was here, and Rain had already decided what she wanted to get for everyone. She hoped that she would be able to go shopping for presents later, but for now she would concentrate on patrolling.
