Introduction
Now he is desperate, collecting a team of assassins. Some are on his side, have been on his side for a while now. Others, he is tracking down, most don't come quietly, though. After all, they are some of the worlds most deadly assassins, known for their clever ways of killing people. Some use current technology, others go for bows and arrows. Whatever works for them. Either way, he has been tracking down these assassins, to kill a six year old.
Her older sister is also spectacular, age 14, but turning fifteen soon. She has extraordinary senses, her hearing and sight off the charts. The one major thing, however, is that she has a mental connection to the little girl, but she doesn't know it. What this means is she has this random voice in her head that she doesn't know who it belongs to. However, it is her younger sister and she doesn't know it yet, as the voice has no certain sound (can not tell if male, female, young, old). She, like her younger sister, has wings, fast healing times, great reflexes, immune to most diseases, but also vulnerable to ones normal humans aren't, light bones, and has to eat a lot to survive. Currently, she is held captive by the scientist so they can get info out of her.
Six year old/female/face Claim: Mackenzie Foy/TAKEN: Haas33
Sixteen year old/female/Face Claim: Emma Watson/OPEN!
The scientist/male/Face Claim: Johnny Depp/TAKEN
Little Red: Little red is a younger assassin, only 18 years old, but she is very vicious. Her fast speed and reflexes, plus cleverness that could knock your socks off make her deadly in fights. She doesn't normally play by the rules and is good with improvising. Her favorite weapon is two daggers. Her nickname is due to her clothing: though bold looking, she wears a red hood. Female/Against scientist/Face Claim: Dakota Fanning/TAKEN: (by me)
Whiplash: She has a peculiar fighting style. Using a whip with a serrated edge, she can handle both hand to hand combat, and somewhat long range. The whip the her is almost an extension to her arm. She is so comfortable with it, she uses it for many things. She uses it to grab weapons out of people's hands, trip them, or flip people by wrapping it around an oncoming fist then yanking hard. Female/Loyal to scientist, is sent to get Robin Hood/Face Claim: Taylor Momsen/TAKEN
Blade: She specializes in fencing and sword play, favoring her katanas and rapiers. She doesn't like short blades or long range weapons. Her slashes and swings are fast and well placed, even used to block arrows, other knives, and sometimes, from far away, bullets. Female/Against Scientist/Face Claim: Nina Dobrev/TAKEN
Shadow: He normally uses the element of surprise. An expert when it comes to camouflage, nobody normal sees him coming. He tends to lurk in the shadows hidden, patient, ready to strike. His moves never create any sound, and are quite graceful, precise, thought out. Though he doesn't have a preferred combat style, nobody really sees him coming. Therefore, he normally just uses a knife, slitting somebodies throat before they know it. However, he is also an expert knife thrower. When fought against, he is normally on the defense. He doesn't let him be seen for long range weapons to work, and when up close, he tends to do the unexpected. One minute somebody is charging towards him, the next he is gone. Male/Loyal to scientist, sent to get Little Red/Face Claim: Alex Pettyfer/TAKEN
Robin Hood: also oddly young, he, though unusual for this time era, specializes in a bow and arrow. His aim is spectacular, but don't think he can only do long range attacks. His bow is rather unique, made specially for him. The ends of the bow are sharp tipped, doubling as a makeshift two-sided sword. Though he doesn't specialize in sword-play, this addition to his bow has saved him a couple times in close quarters. Male/Against scientist/Face Claim: Logan Lerman/TAKEN
Bullseye: Bullseye is an expert when it comes to guns. From hand guns to grenade launchers to sniper rifles, he handles them all, and is deadly with them. He is known to carry six guns, but people say he carries more. With expert aiming, his combat style is deadly. However, don't think he is good with bow and arrows. He is not. In fact, he is quite terrible. Male/Loyal to Scientist, sent to get Blade/Face Claim: Kellan Lutz/OPEN!
The Wild Card: Following a set of moral values, he goes his own ways. he uses a profit/loss system that sometimes gets him enemies. Feared, but also hunted, most of the world is knowledgable of this man. Gifted in explosives, he also hs a vast knowledge of guns. Male/Face Claim: Jared Leto/TAKEN

The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 6 authors

Audra could get herself bandaged up later, maybe when... Just later. She wanted herself to feel the price of actually befriending these two people and actually thinking that she could stay clean while doing so. Being near them... Would be like wearing white in the middle of mud fight between two very aggressive wrestles. She was going to get dirty.
Speaking of dirty, she looked down after feeling something wet and sticky. Blood was oozing out from under her cover up sweater and onto the couch. Feeling a little nervous for some unknown reason, Audra pulled a pillow to her chest, thinking it would help... Hide the stupidness of her choices. I should have stayed where I was, she thought before realizing she thought that, shut it out.

While Valentine searched through the stuff she had pulled out, Blue Jay discreetly plucked a tissue from a box beside the bed and stuck the wad in her mouth. Then she pulled it out and wrapped a clean one around it (so Audra could hold it without being completely grossed out. Then she motioned her over and placed it in her hands. "stick it on your wound," she said, pushing her hands toward the red stain on her sweater. "trust me," she said, before nudging her back over to the couch.
After she got this collar off, if it could come off, she would likely take a shower, and load up on food. Speaking of which, she really needed to get something in her. Was she strong enough to stand up? Blue Jay started move, but then thought better off it. "Valentine? Is there any way I could get some food?" She asked. Remembering that 'Cupcake' was thinking earlier about frozen foods, Blue Jay spoke up again. "Look in the freezer. Maybe like, two frozen pizzas, and a 'tv dinner'?" she said. They look of amazement of how much food she wanted made Blue Jay explain. "I have to eat like twice the amount of an adult," she said.

Audra looked over at Blue Jay, and paused before thinking instead of saying the words. Thank you, Malyutka. She thought using the Russian word for "little one" which was spelled ะผะฐะปััะบะฐ in Russian. Her hands automatically went to the freezer door when she heard frozen food. "There is pizza, and theres more food stocked in the cabins for you to eat, but maybe one of you two can actually make food. "Make food" as in not burn it?" She held up a box of two extra-large pizzas that were frozen as she looked over at Blue Jay.

"All done," he said, smiling. "It's completely short-circuited. Every piece of electronics in there is fried. This same tactic works on everything from microwaves to alarms to jet fighters. Although don't try it with the latter - they have a tendency to blow up, and that's a hell of a mess to clean up."
He watched Blue Jay heal Audra, with a strange mixture of wonder and frustration. If he'd had Blue Jay before, he could have saved people. Saved Leo, for sure; maybe stopped Monica from turning against him. Wouldn't have done anything for Stephanie, though. That was his failure, and his alone.
"I can cook," he said, walking over to the fridge. "I sort of had to learn. My old girlfriend-" he paused. Was it right to have called her that? They'd never really discussed it officially. It had just happened. They'd been too busy running and fighting and killing to actually sort themselves out. Maybe if things had been different... no. He wouldn't dwell on that. Not in Blue Jay's presence. "-couldn't cook at all. Cooking became as much a survival skill as anything, given how unintentionally lethal her food tended to be," he finished, smiling at the memories.

Blue Jay didn't really realize she had fallen asleep, that is, until she was woken by the smell of smoke. Blue Jay practically bounced out of bed, still low on food and practically hysterical. She felt exceedingly weak and she almost toppled over. The smell was not coming from the kitchen. (instead, the delightful smell of something cooking wafted from there) The smell was actually coming from the room she was in. Confused, Blue Jay got up and hurried to the kitchen, her mind whizzing. She didn't just smell smoke. She heard thoughts. Thoughts of people not in this room. Blue Jay ran to the fridge and literally shoved anything that would fit into her mouth right in, dismissing the both disgusted and puzzled looks and thoughts of the two preparing a meal. "Bomb" was all she could say, flapping open her wings and shoving with all her might on Valentine, pushing him toward the door.
before Valentine could say a word, she half ran, half flew into the other room, grabbing anything, gun wise, that she could carry. Plopping it at Valentine's feet, she said "we have about a minute" Blue Jay turned again and found a duffle bag and shoved any more equipment she could find, in. She grabbed a small handgun for herself. She didn't know what kind, and honestly didn't care as long as it had bullets in it. Again shoving both of them through the door, she sighed with relief as they made it out. FIve seconds to spare.
"Run," she said, before pushing her wings up and down, each flap pulling at her only recently healed injuries. She was still so fragile. However, once she cleared through the trees, her heart stopped. She literally paused mid-flap, fell, and then regained herself. Before her was something she wished to never see. Above her was the steady Whop, whop, whop, of huge, hulking helicopters, at least ten of them surrounding her. Below her was several dozens of cars. And in the front of all this was 10 Valentines. 10 killer machines. Why mutate some little kid to have wings when you could just make a Valentine?
Blue Jay gulped. Something painful erupted throughout her, and the world became black.

Audra tried not to stare as Blue Jay began stuffing her mouth with food. "Bomb." Audra didn't stiffen or let out a shocked gasp at the statement. She just tore her gaze from the little girl and watched as Blue Jay pushed Valentine to the door, and practically whizzing over to the far wall, throwing weapons in a duffel bag and dropping it at the Man's feet. This only happened in a matter seconds in Audra's head, but she followed the girl out into the sewer. "Run," Blue Jay then flew off down the tunnel. Audra sighed, muttering some very bad words under her breath. I'm guessing we're on our own. She thought to herself as she turned and began to jog away from where Blue Jay went, not caring if Valentine followed after Blue Jay or not. She was thinking and reacting just like she learned to do. Survive, no matter what.
After jogging nonstop for sometime, she turned a corner and along the wall was a ladder leading to the surface. Hesitating only a second, she climbed up and pushed the top open. She practically jumped out of the tunnel and into the alley.

But hey, I got a lot of stuff in!
Also, Haas, I'm going to PM you about a plot twist I have planned.
Re: Hunt, Capture, and Kill
Anyway, I think that you can reply; we can write off the coincidence as 'plot reasons'.
Re: Hunt, Capture, and Kill
Agheem... Audra was already in the 'neighborhood' but if you can't tell from her living under an abandoned school and the old buildings then maybe I should make it alot more... obvious that she's in the bad side of town. My mistake... Oh, and Audra doesn't have her swords out, she's just wishing she had them. Her swords are in the guitar case on her back.
Re: Hunt, Capture, and Kill
As for the mind reading, here was my intention, whether it doesn't correctly match my first post or not: She has a sort of radar system, picking up thoughts/minds in varying degrees of clarity based on how far away they are. Lets say her range is 700 feet. Anything within, say 100 feet, she can control minds. Anything past, she can read minds, up to say...500 feet. Anything up to 600 feet, she knows that a mind is there, and recognize it if it is something/someone she knows. anything to 700 feet, she just barely knows they are there. As for controlling minds, sort of the same concept...but different. Instead of distance, everything is based on strength. With the weak minded, she could completely control them. With the strong minded, she can only influence or have good persuasion, but with effort and concentration. As for the electrostatic shock, she most likely has been modified for this, but still affects her greatly, especially because her age and weight.
Re: Hunt, Capture, and Kill
Regarding the sniping thing, I find seeing the flash and dodging a tad hard to believe, and here's why. Your standard bullet travels at roughly twice the speed of sound, and if the shot is taken from one kilometre away, that equates to one and a half seconds of travel time between the sniper pulling the trigger and the impact. In real life, if you ever hear about people 'dodging bullets' odds are that the shooter missed. Although this does present an interesting question about her abilities - does she need to consciously 'look' for people's minds to read, or does she have a radar-esque ability that causes her to hear all thoughts within range (and, for that matter, what is her ability's range)?
Agreed; a shot like that would be nigh-impossible to make, as at close range you wouldn't be able to move your gun fast enough and at long range there would be too many variables to realistically score a kill-shot. However, it should be noted that a bullet packs a staggering amount of force - as mentioned in Valentine's excerpt, a .50 BMG round (one of the largest small arms bullets in the world) will literally blow someone apart on a centre mass hit, and a hit to a limb will almost certainly sever that limb wholesale due to the fact that roughly 15,000 joules of energy are being transferred through in the space of an instant. Additionally, tests have never been performed on six-year-olds (which is probably a good thing XD) but a sufficiently powerful bullet hitting a limb will still cause what's referred to as 'electrostatic shock', which is a shockwave sent through the nervous system that will usually shut down the brain (90% of deaths in explosions are caused by this, as a matter of fact). However, due to Blue Jay's... 'modifications', her nervous system may have been hardened against electrostatic shock (if I were in the business of creating super-soldiers, it's one of the first things I'd look to fix, since it'd roughly quadruple survivability against bullets and explosions).
Re: Hunt, Capture, and Kill
Re: Hunt, Capture, and Kill
As for the sniping thing? It is very unlikely she wouldn't notice someone. This is because of her bird-like eyesight. If they were far enough away, she might not notice them, but at that distance she would notice the flash and half enough time to dodge out of the way (because of her fast reflexes). Of course, she would not be able to control snipers because of the distance...maybe only hear their thoughts if yes, she was aware that they were there.
The only other thing I might throw in there is the fact that it is almost nearly impossible to snipe her while she is in flight. In flight, she can get up to speeds close to 200 mph, 250 when dive-bombing. However, it does seem that sniping her would be a good idea, even if does just nick a wing or an arm or leg.
Re: Hunt, Capture, and Kill
I'll try to keep it down from now on, I promise!
Also, to notify everyone: I assume that (based on my experience writing about Reality Warpers for the SCP Foundation and Global Occult Coalition), the best way to kill the girl would be to try to snipe her from extreme range with a high-calibre weapon (to ensure a kill). She's not omniscient, and can't read the thoughts or control the mind of anyone she's not aware of. Therefore, she's still vulnerable to ambush. Am I correct in thinking this?
Re: Hunt, Capture, and Kill
Anyway, how can I fit Valentine in right now? I'm thinking of having him either save one of the assassins against the scientist's life, or have him save the girl; in both instances, he'd probably use a sniper bullet from extreme range. Thoughts?
Also, something of a problem I just realised - a lot of the assassins here are going to have a really, really tough time against Valentine on account of his armour. The 'Dragon Skin' coat is rated for 5.56mm NATO rounds (standard assault rifle bullets), and his heavy-duty combat armour is Level V ceramic, which is rated for anything up to .30-06 Incendiary rounds. There's no way any kind of bladed weapon will cut through that - in the final fight scene of my novel, Valentine and the book's villain (who is wearing nigh-identical armour) basically do the same thing Medieval knights did and try to wrestle their knives into the gaps in each other's armour, with results that are not pretty. The only solution I can think of is for the assassins to be armed with some sort of super-sharp blades, or for some extremely brutal hand-to-hand scenes where they try to jam their knives into the gaps.
Re: Hunt, Capture, and Kill
Re: Hunt, Capture, and Kill
Also, just a note - it's reasonably likely, due to his infamy, that most of the assassins will recognise him as soon as he turns up.
Re: Hunt, Capture, and Kill
Re: Hunt, Capture, and Kill
Also, I wrote a little 'excerpt'; a random assassination by him, specifically. A way of giving you an idea of what he's like, and how he thinks.
