Introduction
Distraught, X's only son, still in high school, decides to round up other Students with super powers, and create a union of Villains. While he does this, the Heroes are recruiting a new generation to help them "protect" the people of the capital city. A fight is brewing, and the whole city will end up engulfed by it.
THE WAR IS ON!
Some Ideas on Super Powers:
Elemental control: You can be really powerful with one, or decent with a bunch.
For example: You could be able create streams of fire from your hands that could melt titanium, or, you could be able to throw tiny fireballs, manipulate water, earth, and wind, and able to power small appliances. If you are strong with fire you must grow weaker in water, if you are strong with water you are sensitive to being shocked, if you are strong in ice you are sensitive to heat.
Super strength: This power is self explanatory, but know this, YOU MUST HAVE SOME SORT OF DRAWBACK! Either a weakness, like superman's kryptonite, or you are less intelligent. This power typically comes with flight, but I advise you to use caution and not power-play.
Animal Magnetism: this is self explanatory, however, the drawbacks vary. Strong Animal magnetism, that forms power bonds between man and the stronger beasts, leads to depression when their partners are hurt. Minor animal magnetism leads to a hard time interacting with other humans.
Super intelligence: Self explanatory, however, mild cases make it hard for them to interact with "Inferior" intellects. Strong cases lead to telepathy and mind reading, but are rare, and typically don't advertise that fact. These also tend to be eccentric people, with weird hobbies.
Other powers are allowed, just balance them out.

She then heard the voice she had been hearing over the phone a few times, unseeing gaze drifting upward a bit. X? she guessed, the wolf leaning against her leg, as if to confirm her thoughts. Alicia listened to him speak, arching a careful brow when the word "Book Club" was spoken. Cool. She got out of Calculus.
Her frame went ridge when a hand patted her shoulder as X's voice was heard once again. "Of course," she replied in a light voice, eyes on the table once more.
Alice ran her slim hand along the slick, wooden table, the tips of her fingers finding the folder. She grasped it in one hand, letting her free hand drift across the surface. I wish I could read this on my own, she thought, voice sounding a bit frustrated. 'You're perfect the way you are, Alicia. Seeing does not mean a thing, you can look with other things besides your eyes.' Shad had thought back quickly, a weird sounding whimper escaping the wolf's muzzle. Alice's attention was brought back to what was being said though. Sit.. It.. Out. A sad smile crossed her lips, but she quickly replaced it with a light, easy smile that didn't quiet reach her eyes. 'At least we're safe another day!' the large, black wolf commented, craning his head back to look at his master.
What am I doing here, Shad? Alice asked, sitting the folder back down silently. 'What do you mean?'
Why am I here? I don't belong here, I can't help them. Really, who's going to say 'Hey! Let's go ask the blind girl to help!' No one..
The wolf looked down at his paws, 'It's just one assignment, Ali-'
Then there will be two..three..four.. I just, why humiliate myself?
Shad didn't answer, causing Alicia to give a gentle, airy sigh most likely not heard. She reached into her pocket which was opposite the one her phone resided in, pulling out a pair of heavily tinted glasses; with them, no one would be able to see her eyes. She stood up slowly, but surprisingly in a graceful movement. "I do not have a question, may I leave now?" she asked, voice calm and steady. Her gaze had settled on the wall across from her, but it wasn't two seconds later when she slid on her glasses, white wispy bangs hanging over them just a little.

A guy came in and leaned up against the corner not sitting in a seat. The shadows seemed to cling to him like a jacket. He wondered in the back of his mind what that scar was from that was slashed across his throat.
He looked over at the door as someone else came and blinked. It was the same girl from before that had run into him and started complaining about her coffee. He didn't care for coffee all that much, he prefered just straight water. He glanced out the door and saw the bird that was with her outside the window.
Then a boy apeared out of thin air. He wasn't all that suprised but it still was strange that a person came out of nothing right in front of him.
X started speaking, saying that this was now their first period. He was okay with that, he didn't mind getting out of his history class. He wasn't all that good at history but he got by if he tried his hardest.
There was more talking and X was passing out folders. When his got slid over to him he opened it and took a look inside. As X had said there were the whole plans for everyone. He would be down town with X, keeping the police focused on them so the others could get in the store and ransack the place. He noded, he liked the idea it was a good one. It was close to the Robin Hood story, taking from the rich and giving to the poor.
The girl with the dog seemed uncomfortable, sliding the folder scross the table. Then she stood up and asked if she could go, sliding on a pair of glasses. He wondered what her problem was, she didn't have anything to be angry or embarassed about.
He glanced over at X then at the others in the room, he was going to be working with these people. He had to get to know them sooner or later, he didn't like socializing all that much. He would rather keep to himself and study or read a book than hang out with a group of people.

"Well, shoot," Airei sighed to herself, leafing through the papers, "My brother works near there. Won't be a very happy reunion.... Well, gotta face him sooner or later. What do you think, Apollo?" The bird screeched in surprise; he had moved to the window to better see the folder. Good, need talk Brother Twin. Think Foldergiver is Seached For.... Read good. Book good, lots read She laughed, almost outright as she put the papers in. "My companion says we should pick an actual book to read, primarily as a cover. And he asks me," She smiled, looking directly at Lucien, "Under what name should I place this number, so I am not blindsided again?" She wanted to trust him, but like any good hunter--and prey-- she was cautious. She needed to find somewhere else to stay as well; she was almost positive her twin had been getting into her Shack. There just wasn't enough time for everything! She sighed, placed the folder into her backpack, and glanced at the window, watching the hawk perch and preen his feathers.

" I am victor" he added a few seconds later, the last of the shadows that were clinging to him misting and disappearing. " I can control shadows and darkness..form almost anything out of them." Victor decided to add that bit in as well. If he was going to work with these people, he might as well let them know what he can do so none of them freak out too much.

He then turned to the rest. "Rule two, we are a little family now, learn each others names, trade numbers, be friendly. I will not tolerate anyone using their powers on team members, friendly fire is not tolerated." He then paused. "Rule three, Have fun." He then sat back down at his seat and thought about Airei's question. "I guess we could read actual books... Let me look up some books we could read and get back to you." He then paused, "As for the number you shall receive, you may add that to your contacts as Archibald, this number can be used to contact my butler. If you need anything, Money, Food, a place to stay, a ride somewhere, Archibald can help you."
He also paused, "Feel free to use the number from this mornings text to contact me. You may put it down as Lucien Cain, I trust you with my actual name. If I end up on the execution stand because I was ratted out, I'll know who to haunt." with that he shut up and sipped his coffee.
Then victors question surfaced in his mind. "You can expect various locks and cameras. I'm going to hack the system and down the cameras beforehand. As for damage..." he contemplated this for a moment. "Cripple it, but don't bankrupt the man. I plan on buying him out from under the Elect, get his profits working for us..."

Airei smiled and nodded, immediately entering the name into her phone. Then she added Lucien's name, as well. She tilted her head; she had so few numbers entered, both names were side by side in the list. She looked up at a faint scratching from by the window. Read good.... Searched For, Lucien... Think good, must learn more. Eyes? She smiled a little, opening her eyes to the giant hawk. Her vision flickered, floating from face to face. Then it closed in on Lucien. No tell name, not yet. Still no sure.....Call Bard, yes? Airei chuckled. A "Bard" she was, Apollo's term for human faced bird. He often called her Nestsib when they were alone, she had grown up with the redtailed "brother". Ask stay.... no safe Shack. She frowned; she wasn't used to asking others for help. Very few hunters were......

'Let me see it!' the wolf thought quickly, standing up, its tail actually swishing back and forth just barely. She snatched the folder from the smooth table once more, flipping it open, lowering it to the ground carefullly. At first Shad sniffed across it, reading intently; he had super intelligence, just like Alice. 'Nothing of interest, stuff not needed for you.. Pictures, backgrounds, ick.' the wolf snorted aloud at this, before nudging the folder away with his cold, wet nose. Pictures..
What do these people look like, Shad? Alicia asked suddenly, a curious tint lingering in her thoughts. 'They do not look special. The girl is pretty.. The males in the room..' Shad gave another outward snort in response, causing Alice to sigh. She listened to all their voices carefully, memorizing them quickly with the names whoever spoke. She was pretty sure they knew her name now, it had been spoken a couple times. A light breeze stirred in the room, brushing the side of her face gently, in a comforting way. She closed her eyes beneath the dark glasses, smiling some. "So while you all go on your rampage, what am I to do? Should I stay home, what?" she said lightly, her voice holding interest. She could pretty much guess it though, not knowing why she even asked. Of course she would be staying home, what else would there be to do? Hope they all stay safe though, she thought, pale eyes having opened once more.
Alicia slid her hand along the table slowly, the tips of her fingers touching a mug. She grasped it, hand moving along once more as she leaned forward. A quick exhale of air escaped her lips in a gasp when her fingers met the hot glass of the coffee pot. She jerked back her hand, multiple cuss words exploding in under her breath. Alice tried playing it off though, knowing where the coffee pot was, now, reaching over and clasping it with her free hand. Shad had sat up, peering over the table just barely. 'Be careful, Alice! You're going to spill coffee everywhere!' the wolf scolded, Alicia hardly paying attention, fingertips throbbing.
'A little to the left.. No, right! Now more the the left..' Shad coached, huffing once she began pouring coffee, actually into the mug.. You think little of me, don't you, Shad? she teased, facing smoothing from its concentrated expression as she sat back down with her mug, taking a sip of the coffee. She then sat it down, gingerly touching the tips of her right fingers. 'You're a klutz,' the black wolf simply commented, plopping back down to his stomach.

Airei glanced up from her mug as the other girl, Alice, almost dropped the coffee pot. She was about to go help when she realized she had gotten it. The WolfSister, she does not see..... Moves slow, like getting help without hands, wolf guides her. Apollo's rough voice grated against her mind. Yes. Wingbrother, I can tell. Their bond is like ours.... she crooned back, and the hawk whistled softly. She smiled a little, then frowned to herself again at the next comment. Wingsister needs new nest.....not safe, Shack intruded by Dark Wearer. She looked up at the bird, bared her teeth covertly, and bent down over a scrap of paper, quickly scribbling a request. With a similar whistle to Apollo's, the little paper (which she had folded) flew lightly to rest in front of Lucien. I need a place to stay..... My home is currently falling apart, and my "hero" of a brother keeps sneaking in. I would rather get outa there before he gets orders to do more than rearrange my alarms.... Then she pulled her book back out. There you dumb bird, you happy? The bird shrieked assent, and she rolled her eyes.

Re: [OOC] The Fall of Light
Guys, I posted. Since I remembered that Myleene is a year too old to be a student at the school, I quickly formed some kind of job for her there. If it doesn't fit in the story and you want me to change it then I don't mind but I thought that it would be a good idea. :)
Re: [OOC] The Fall of Light
Sounds good to me! :D (Sorry I posted twice. >-<)
Re: [OOC] The Fall of Light
I am waiting on three people to post before posting again. If they haven't by noon tomorrow I will go ahead and post again. If we don't see them by Wednesday I'll assume they're no longer interested and kick them unless I hear from them about why they're gone.
Re: [OOC] The Fall of Light
I could put it where Alicia already knows X if you want, I left it a little vague on her history anyway.
Re: [OOC] The Fall of Light
Oh and I forgot to put in that he met X. Sorry about that, still tired and I keep forgeting things. I'll edit soon.
Re: [OOC] The Fall of Light
Re: [OOC] The Fall of Light
@ Those roleplaying as Villains: I would prefer it if some of you already knew X, like you've already met him or you knew him before he was a villian or whatever you can think of, that way this a starting group.
@Heroes: Right know Its a little balanced to the Villain side, but I'm sure it will even out.
@All: I'm dead tired (I just woke up) so the first post will be in about four hours.
