Without any further explanation than that, Miles started walking away when he felt the floor shake, a rumble following it. "What in the world?" he asked, wondering for a moment if the Controls had found them and had that metal-head busting in the apartment complex after them. But that didn't make any sense if it was the case--the quake came from below, in the basement, where all the electrical outlets were. Biting his lip in worry for the sake of this place, Miles knew he couldn't just pass something like that off. This place had to remain standing. "I'll go see what that was," he told Adrien before walking quickly off to the basement floor.
When he got there, the door was wide open and a small amount of smoke was pooling out of it. Miles coughed and waved his hand to clear it away, squinting inside to see just what went on in there. He sighed in relief when he noticed Ruko sitting on the ground, boxes and other items fallen on her head, but seemingly alright. She probably tried turning the power on, he figured, and ended up blowing the entire thing up with her powers. Sighing, Miles started over to the girl, the boxes and items lifting themselves in the air as if by themselves, dropping gently and neatly to the ground in the corner. He bent down slightly once he reached Ruko and held out a hand, smiling halfheartedly. "Do you need any help? You sure are troublesome," he snickered.

"What in the world?"
"That's what I was wondering too," he mumbled as he walked down the hallway towards the others, being sure not to close the door behind him. The doors were locked electrically, and while he could have made a traditional key, Will couldn't fake a card key. Will met up With Adrien and Miles just as the latter left to investigate the cause of the tremor. Better him than me, Will thought, yawning as he leaned against a nearby wall. He knows this place better than the rest of us.
"What do you think that was all about?" the boy asked Adrien. He really didn't know, so the Frenchie's guess was as good as his.

"Probably just Ruko. She did mention she wanted to try to restore power, oui?" Adrien asked, just to be certain. From what he knew, Miles certainly wasn't going to help him, and Ruko was probably busy... So Will was probably Adrien's best bet if he wanted someone to watch his back while he got his things back from the hotel... Ugh, why didn't I just bring it with me? Adrien thought. Oh yeah, because I didn't want to be burdened while I ran around town... Great, just great. At least a hundred dollars in spare change, clothes, food, and a small clock. All things that he needed and all things completely out of reach. Well, I might as well talk to him now, Adrien thought. "So, you control carbon? And it makes you hungry to use your power, oui? Hm..." Adrien trailed off, mostly pretending to be thinking about something. In all honesty, he just needed to find a way to word things right so he could get some more time alone with Will. "I don't suppose you'd want more food? I'd have to get it from somewhere, but I have food and money stored away," Adrien said slowly.
He liked Will. Sure, he seemed a little odd, but he was cute and also seemed nice. And his powers seemed to work pretty well against the walking suit of armor, which Adrien could always use... Not like he wanted to run into any Controls on his way out. That would be, needless to say, a bad thing. Besides, who said anything about Adrien fighting? He'd be too busy running in the opposite direction.... Huh. I really am French, Adrien thought cynically to himself.

Aver slowly took a step out of the room, still a little uncertain whether it was safe with the big lug around. "I know where Randle is. It seems he decided to..not use the door." The sentence confused Aver, if he didn't use a door, what did he use!? His eyes scanned the hallway, ending up in the direction Analisa was going. Chunks of stone were decorating the hallway, that was definitely new. Wait, chunks of stone? "Hold on!" Aver went into a light jog to try and catch up with Analisa, who fortunately enough actually did stop.
Going a bit further forward, Aver looked into the room to see the giant down. "I-Is he dead?" Tilting his head awkwardly to the side, he grabbed the longest thing in the room he could find. Slowly approaching the downed knight. "If he get's up, I am bolting out of this room, I swear".

Once they had reached the knight, Analisa bit into her lip before she slowly knelt down. Reaching out with her right hand she slightly shook his shoulder before straightening up once more. "Randle...Uh can you..hear us?" She questioned in a quiet voice, watching for any sign of movement from him. Though, after several seconds of not seeing anything she turned her gaze to Aver. "Uhm...Now what?"

He felt someone shaking his shoulder for a moment. Randle's vision came back in a dizzy haze. A stray memory hit his as he remembered what happened. Someone hurt mama...! He lurched up into a sitting position. He reached out and grabbed the one that shook him by the shoulder and pulled the person close. His vision started too finally clear...
It wasn't one of the nowhere kids. It was that water girl. Analisa was it. Ranlde let go of her and flopped back down on his back with an ungraceful thud. He was too tired at the moment to go on another tangent.
"Where... they go?" He asked with a rasped breath. "They... shock me.... electric power.... then leave...."

Her cautiously stood by her side as they got closer, so close that she even shook the shoulder. "Randle...Uh can you..hear us?" The following silence pretty much answered the question. He was somewhat thankful that they wouldn't have to figure out if Randle was still in a bad mood or not. "Uhm...Now what?" Aver looked over the giant. "Well, we could go loo-" His sentence was cut off as the behemoth lurched to his sitting position. Immediately Aver's body reacted, trying to back up. But then he noticed something else, the giant grabbed hold of Analisa. He tensed in his position, trying to figure what he should do. Raising the object in his hands as if he was going to try striking at it. Randle was pissed, he was definitely pissed.
But, before Aver could really begin to think, the giant released Analisa. Leaving him slightly confused as Randle fell back. "Where... they go?" Looking around the room, he tried to note plausible escape paths. If they ran out of the room, their couldn't have been much of a window for them to escape view right? "They... shock me.... electric power.... then leave...." Aver let out a slight chuckle, somewhat relieved that Randle was calm. "Seems they got away huh?"

"Sounds about right," Will replied, shrugging his shoulders. "I guess she input too much power into the system, blew some fuses or something. Let's just hope that she didn't barbecue herself; we'll definitely need her if we have to escape from that armored freak again."
"So, you control carbon? And it makes you hungry to use your power, oui? Hm..."
"Yeah, that's pretty much it," Will replied, nodding slowly. What was the Frenchie getting at?
"I don't suppose you'd want more food? I'd have to get it from somewhere, but I have food and money stored away," Adrien said slowly.
Will laughed; so that was it. He just needed a bodyguard to keep him out of harms way while he got his stuff. Although Will was tempted to decline, the unavoidable fact was that he had a lot of stuff at his cheap apartment that he needed as well. The next time he had to fight that juggernaut from earlier, it would be a million times easier to use his existing weapons rather than to make new ones from scratch. "Fine, but we're stopping by my place as well. And you don't need to be all cryptic to get me to help you; we're part of a team now, so you just have to ask."
Will cautiously walked down the hallway to the lobby, peering out one of the windows before deciding that it was safe to move out. "Come on, the coast is clear. No sign of the tin man yet, but try not to attract any attention."

"We track?" He asked, raising himself until he was sitting again. "One use lightning. May find if on power grid." Randle may be a bit of a raging brute most of the time, but he could still use his brain to think when needed. With a few minutes to recover he would be more then ready to try a second assault against the Nowheres.

Miles laughed a little with her. "Well, yes, I suppose you're right about that," he commented, looking at the machine. "It's fine though. I was worried this place was going to come crashing down. Now that would of been problematic. I have things here that need to stay standing...," he trailed off as he drew a finger down the machine, pulling it away and wiping the black soot off it. He looked up, hearing faint voices and figuring them to be Will and Adrien, making discussing the explosion. Not that either of them came to check what happ--Wait, what did I say earlier? He paused, blinking dumbly for a moment, looking at Ruko, then looking away. I spoke too much. What if she starts asking questions? I'm an idiot! Mentally hitting himself, he recovered and thought of an idea to distract her mind, hopefully.
Smiling back over at Ruko, he motioned to the door leading out of the room. "Besides, we wouldn't that pretty face of yours getting hurt," he said slyly. He made a waving motion with his hands towards the door. "Ladies first." He winked.

"I suggest stopping at my place first. We can rest there. Besides, once we get there I'll be able to get us safely to wherever you need to go," Adrien said, being a little vague on purpose. He didn't feel like explaining his sometimes useless ability to Will, especially since he was relying on him to fight. Pausing as he walked, Adrien looked back at Will and bit his lip. "Ah... I can be honest with you, oui?" Adrien asked. Deciding that waiting for an answer would probably just get him even more embarrassed then usual, he continued. "I can't fight others with abilities. Not very well, at least... So if it comes down to it, you can fight, but you'll be alone." Great. Now Will would probably just go off on his own anyway. He had about the same chances alone as sticking with Adrien....
Sighing, Adrien started to walk again, eyes looking around lazily for any signs of danger. Nothing, so that was good. Hopefully the Controls would take some time to get themselves organized, and maybe even wait a while... But he doubted it. The quicker he could get his clock and find a relatively quite place (the hotel was usually quiet during the day, but at night....) to get a look around the town. If worse came to worse Adrien didn't mind going in blind, but even he'd rather to keep the times with him running for his life to a relatively low number.

Analisa moved back to Aver's side once more, as Randle let out a low growl. They not get away next time. The giant said, while Analisa looked around the room. We track? One use lightning. May find on power grid. Analisa nodded before turning her gaze to Randle once more. "Yeah, we might be able to track them. If one of them is a electric user, the power grids may be our only option. What do you think Aver?" She questioned, turning her gaze to her fellow control.

Obviously if Randle was knocked out, they got away.. A low whistle escaped his lips as he stopped next to Analisa. "They managed to knock him out? They're either stupider then I thought. Or..know they're just stupid." He grinned, waving to the rest of them. "Sorry I couldn't help. But I found a really cool looking spot on a wall. It was all blue. I had to see what it would do.. But it just stayed there. So I got bored." His grin only grew while he explained his absence. It was true, Alex was one odd cookie. But he loved it.

"Yeah, we might be able to track them. If one of them is a electric user, the power grids may be our only option. What do you think Aver?" Aver jumped at the fact it was her voice bringing him back to attention. For a moment thinking he was caught even thinking about which way she had to be odd. "Uh-well... I guess that depends right? How she uses her power, how she got them, and how long has she been storing energy. I don't think Randle was zapped by them using a light socket for energy consuming. For all we know, they might be able to just create energy out of nothingness. They might be powering a lighthouse for all we know." He paused, trying to think of what kind of location they would be in. It had to be impossible to pin them down exactly, but maybe with an area. "Geez, I wish we knew what the others powers were."

"Hm..we need a plan to get through this..." she muttered to herself looking away from the group.
"A variety of shoes need to be filled if we are to be successful; a method of tracking and capturing effectively..especially considering they are equipped with powers of their own.. we may need a source of strength to contain them..." she wandered glimpsing at Randle.
"But how long could you contain them.. maybe if we had another assigned or.."
Still talking under her breath, her eyes scanned the group of Controls.
"Or we could go one-on-one but personally I prefer a group method..."
Serenity stopped talking to herself as she could not come to any conclusions without fully knowing answers and turned to all of them.
"What powers do we have to work with might I ask?"

"Geez, I wish we knew what the others powers were." Aver said. Randle still remember the green hair knife thrower and the trick he did to slow the giants punch. He swung at the diamond hard carbon bars the Nowhere had plastered over the window before they escaped. The windowsill raddled but the bars withstood the strike. "One make things with hands. Very hard." He thought for a moment, a stray thought coming to him. "If know more about Nowhere's powers, could ask mama or men in white."
Doctor Jay and the scientist had all work on and gave the Nowheres their powers after all. It would stand to reason that they could produce some information on their targets.
"Hm..we need a plan to get through this..." Randle looked over at Serenity as she spoke. He didn't know why, but there was always something... familiar about her when he saw her. Like she reminded him of someone he used too know. He shook his head to clear his thoughts and listen more intently.
A variety of shoes need to be filled if we are to be successful; a method of tracking and capturing effectively..especially considering they are equipped with powers of their own.. we may need a source of strength to contain them..." He noticed the glimpse she gave him and he nodded. "But how long could you contain them.. maybe if we had another assigned or.." She seemed lost in thought for a moment. "Or we could go one-on-one but personally I prefer a group method..." She turned back to the group addressing everyone. "What powers do we have to work with might I ask?"
Randle slowly rouse too his feet. When he stood at full height his body started to twitch and contort for a few seconds as he accelerated the regenerative factor. When finish he stood in his normal shape, now almost fully healed. "I strong. I change muscle shape. I no die, can heal when hurt." Well, maybe saying he couldn't die was a bit of an overstatement, but it would take a lot to put Randle down permanently.

"All right, fine with me,"Will replied as the two walked out into the street outside the apartment building. Will glanced around discretely, but saw nothing of interest. There was no sign of the enemy as of yet, but one could never be too careful. "My place is a little ways from here, down by the park. Your room is probably a little closer than mine is."
"Ah... I can be honest with you, oui?" Adrien asked. "I can't fight others with abilities. Not very well, at least... So if it comes down to it, you can fight, but you'll be alone."
Will stayed silent for a moment before letting a little chuckle escape his lips. "I figured as much. When you told us you powers, I really couldn't imagine a combat application for it. But, lucky for you, that's part of the reason we're going to my apartment. I have a small cache of weapons there; some that I've made with my abilities, some that I've only modified. I'll give you something easy to use, like a sword. All you really have to do is slash at your opponent!

"I figured as much. When you told us you powers, I really couldn't imagine a combat application for it. But, lucky for you, that's part of the reason we're going to my apartment. I have a small cache of weapons there; some that I've made with my abilities, some that I've only modified. I'll give you something easy to use, like a sword. All you really have to do is slash at your opponent!" Adrien chuckled at the idea of him swinging around a broadsword. While he was athletic, most sports were only casually played by him. Still, a smaller sword like a rapier would be better, or even one of those Japanese kantanas. Certainly not his first choice, but at least it would be something, right?
"Ah, merci. That would... Be helpful," Adrien replied slowly, smiling at Will. He was a nice person. Kind, attractive, and thoughtful.... And, as Adrien had long since learned, most of those guys were straight. Forget the stereotype that all good guys were gay; all the good guys were straight. Painfully so, at least. "Ah, it's over there," Adrien said suddenly, motioning towards a turn in the corner up ahead. It was shabby and was certainly one of those places where you kept an eye on your belongings, but Adrien had long since grown used to it. You just had to know how to tune things out, and how to ignore dirty looks. "Be careful. Sometimes a homeless person comes out and asks for money... And they don't usually like being turned down," Adrien warned as they walked over to the hotel.

Analisa was wondering the same thing. She wasn't exactly sure what the other's could do. I strong. I change muscle shape. I no die, can heal when hurt She heard Randle say, noticing he'd stood up already. Analisa couldn't help the slight shiver that passed through her as she stood next to the armored giant. Damn...He's really really tall.. She thought to herself, before shaking her head a bit to clear her thoughts. Finally she turned her attention to Serenity."I control water. It's not all that great, but I can get it to do whatever I wish." Turning her attention to the other two, she tilted her head once more. "What about you guys?"

"I control water. It's not all that great, but I can get it to do whatever I wish." Aver paused in his state of fear, turning to look at Analisa. The power to control water, that was a rather bland power, something one would probably see in a movie or something. But, it did have a certain highlight on her mostly normal characteristics. "What about you guys?" Aver looked to Alex first before speaking for himself. "Well, u-umm." He looked between the others, locking his eyes on Serenity.
Looking down, he blocked his face with his hair. The mimic procedure occurred rather slowly, since this was his first time taking the persons shape. When he grew more familiar with a shape, it often occurred much faster. But soon enough, he had taken Serenity's shape, including hair and eye color. "Mimic" He stated out, grinning. "I can probably try to split them apart. How about you Alex?"

“So what do you have standing that you want to keep standing? Come on, you can tell me, I won’t tell anyone, I swear. Pretty please?” Ruko said, looking back at Miles, putting on the traditional puppy dog face, which she is actually pretty good at using. But whenever she would do something that would make her use her eyes, like a wink or puppy dog face, a bolt would be seen in her blue eye, very easily to be seen too.

"Serenity believes all of our powers and efforts combined will be fruitful..Serenity think.."
She paused as her eyes closed.
Who is the light and who is the darkness..
The far-sighted or the brute?
..the sparks or the tear?
....what is weighed or what is visioned and changed?
....for only time will tell.
Serenity opened her eyes slowly as if waking up from a deep slumber. "Serenity volunteers to be the tracker... Randle, Alexander and Analisa will take turns as decoys who attack the Nowheres head on..as for Aver... will be the one who deceives them by taking the form of a lured away Nowhere and leads them one by one into a laid out trap. For this to work, when attacking we will have to seperate them to make them vulnerable and also so they may believe Aver is an ally. An example is Randle attack nowhere no.1 and Alexander attack nowhere no.2 Randle force nowhere no.1 down a tunnel and Aver is waiting at tunnel and takes the shape of one of the other nowheres like nowhere no.2 from earlier and deceives nowhere no. 1 to be an ally and lead them to trap instead"
Serenity looked down uncomfortable taking on the role as leader but the Nowheres had to be captured and that was the best of what her power or skill could be used for.
"Analisa, Serenity ask that you attack the female with red and blue eyes.. Randle chase after the blonde male with blue eyes...and Alexander pursue the male with orange hair... thats three Nowheres down...the rest Serenity can not see clearly.." she said starting to walk in the direction the Nowheres had taken.
"Serenity know she is no leader but Serenity hope you trust her" she said innocently turning around with a small smile.
If they follow these instructions..
..I would have already changed a few strings of fate.

He shrugged. "Adrien mentioned getting some things of his earlier. He probably went for that with Will," Miles responded. They better not get caught. He cast a look at Ruko, wondering if she had anything she needed to get from anywhere or if she already had all that she needed. “So what do you have standing that you want to keep standing? Come on, you can tell me, I won’t tell anyone, I swear. Pretty please?” Ruko asked, turning to face him with a look Miles found could only be described as the 'puppy dog look.' He, too, was a master of the look, but he found it to be demeaning and desperate, so therefore never could be bothered to use it. Not that he'd even need to, really.
Miles blinked widely at her, caught off-guard for a moment. She, she what? I couldn't show her that! he thought in his mind, twitching some as he continued to stare at her. He frowned, looking away to gather his thoughts and composure. "I have no idea what you're talking about," he stated stiffly. Smooth, Miles, why don't you just shoot yourself while you're at it? He was mad again; mad at himself for being suddenly unable to come up with a good enough lie or a more successful distraction to get Ruko's mind off his little slip of the tongue. He hesitated, before sighing, knowing there was no possible way that she would believe him. "You are quite the trouble-maker," he sighed before picking himself up. "Alright. I'll show it to you. On some conditions..." His expression became very serious as he looked at her. "Do not touch anything, take anything, remove or replace anything, and you are absolutely not to speak of it to anyone. Understood?"

Edit: I'm having Adrien 'give himself up' so the NKs can get out... After all, it would be a little bit of a killjoy if the NKs all got captured in the first fight. ^^
Re: [OOC] Nowhere Kids
Anyway! Since Poetic is still yet too return would anyone mind if I had Randle man handle his character into the truck (After I wrestle Adrien away from Ruko of course)
[edit] ARGH I was supposed to post today but I got distracted! Sorry I'll try again in the mourning.

Re: [OOC] Nowhere Kids
Here is my character just to brag about it.
"I am war, I am slaughter, I am murder, I am every blade being swung, I am every arrow in flight, and I am every wound you feel tearing at your flesh. I am Genocide and I am violence incarnate."
Pray to me for victory and strength AND... If find your bravery, your ambition, or your blood lust significant, Then I shall grant it to you in full.
Kneel before me mortal, and bask in the glory of WAR! For in my domain ALL are equal in this realm of slaughter and strife!
Bring me the heads of you enemies! Spill their blood upon the ground! For fresh blood are my temple floors, burning siege fire is my holy light, battle cries are my preaching songs, and the clash of weapons are my sacred teachings!
KNEEL... but raise your head with pride.
To the victorious I grant glory
To the conqueror I grant the spoils of battle
Too those that stand stronger then all others in the face of carnage I grant IMMORTALITY THROUGH LEGEND!
So says I, Genocide, god of war.
