There are far lamer Mutants whose names I can't even remember right now.

One day when you were four your babysitter started freaking out when she couldn't find you. She was calling people and crying. You were horribly confused as you were only two feet away watching the Adventures of the Golden Patriot on TV. She was certainly less amused when she could hear you calling to her from seemingly nowhere trying to get her attention. You only realized something was amiss when you tripped and fell right through the cou trying to calm her down. Later however you were excited. You were super-abled, a miracle since as far as you were aware neither of your parents carried the Apex gene. You knew from then on that you had to be a cape. You were so certain even as a little...

this will crash and burn beautifully.

Little does he know that we're doing this specifically to spite him.

>>3713515
You too, huh?

And now you get to make a new name for yourself. It begins tonight.

A few white 4 door hover movers come in under the veil of darkness and park round the back. A few cyber crusts come out from the warehouse gate armed with chains and lead pipes and meet up with the movers. They open the trunks and from your position you can see that there are enough cold caches to equal at least a good fifty thousand creds.

An armed guard carrying a Tamaka Enforcer rifle steps out of one of the movers and begins to escort one of the crusts as he begins to carry a cold cache to the gates. The other stays behind as another armed guard steps out and joins him. They will probably need to make, you estimate, three trips back and forth to get it all in.

Its go time.

Descending the building via the fire escape you invisibo your way behind the armed guard by the truck. You sneak behind and to the right facing toward the crust and punch him. You ding him pretty good and the shock knocks him down for a moment and his TE rifle drops and slides a foot away from the open mover.

The crust is shocked and looks around weilding his pipe menacingly as his head swivels from side to side trying to find the source of his troubles.

"Who goes there. You fucking slaggers!!! The hell do you think you are!"

Ooooooooh yeah! Here it is. The moment. The chance for a cool name drop. You sneak behind and drop your invisibility and prepare to punch his lights out as you say...

>"Im (ENTER CAPE NAME)." and take him down.

>>3713558
Please god no. I never thought I'd say this but. I can stand a Nazi and a liberal, but I can't stand a liberal Nazi.

"I'm Specter Streak." He turns around, pipe already in an arc towards you. But you drop him with a quick but firm left hook upside his skull and he falls like a sack of potatoes. Sadly his pipe falling from his now limp hand hits the concrete and alerts the guard and the crust coming back for thier second cache. On the ground a little bit away from the KOed crust the other guard begins to stir and rise.

What do you do?

With a swift kick to the side the guard stays down.

"Oi!!!!"

You turn around and see the crust with his chain spinning like a propeller and in front of him is the guard. He starts blasting you with pulse rounds on sight. You won't be able to dodge in time, you'll need to phase.

Roll a 1d10 RESTRAINT

(Whenever you use your powers in moments of high stress its harder to control them. Whether your're trying to reduce collateral damage or avoid killing someone with superstrength you need to show a little RESTRAINT. 5-6 are the sweet spot. 1 is barely a fizzle, your powers don't activate. 10 is overkill. The other numbers inbetween are varying degrees of mixed successes.)

(First roll posted is used when making RESTRAINT rolls.)

>>3713800

>>3713803
Oh fuck.

>>3713803

You manage to let a few rounds slip through you but you flicker for just a moment and one of them hits you squre in the sternum. The blue bolt stings as it strikes your chest. Its a searing hot pain and will likely bruise and scar but luckily he's using pulse rounds so you don't need to worry about removing a round from your lung.

"Get down and stay down. Resistence is futile!"

Screams the synthesized voice of the guard. Must be tin man.

As he approaches you can see inside the warehouse from this angle. There on a table is the first cache opened up where punks in lab goggles are counting the preprepped syringes.

The tin man guard is close enough to where you can see the neon glow of his optics behind his visor. Hes close enough that if he sprayed again going invisible won't matter and you don't have enough time to phase again.

Roll a 1d20 to perform a take down.

With a high kick you send his gun tumbling away from him and second roundhouse kick knocks him to the ground.

You let the chain phase clean through you like a knife through air. You make a smug face before you notice your shrinking. Shit! You aren't shrinking you're sinking. You got over excited and have sunk 2 feet into the concrete and dirt. As you notice yourself no-clipping through the ground you panic and flicker. Surprisingly you aren't bisected like you always feared and are instead ejected upward violently from the ground as the greater mass of the earth sends you tumbling 4 feet into the air.

Time feels slow for you as you see the shocked face of the crust a looking up in astonishment. His chain hanging limp by his side. You need to really pull yourself together and make this landing or you are going to find yourself in a very vulnerable position.

Yup, that's me. You're probably wondering how I got into this situation

>>3714391

All of a sudden you feel your stomach drop as your land square on your left arm. You hear an unhealthy but crunchy *SNAP* as you dislocate your fore arm from your elbow. HOLY. SHIT. This hurts worse than the shot to the chest.

"You stupid cunt!"

You tilt your head up for a second just as the chain comes crashing onto your face and strikes your across the face over your right eye. You feel a warm wetness coming down your right cheek as darkness begins to overtake your vision.
As you see the silhouette of the crust raise his chain for a final blow a loud *WOOOOOM* and a rush of air knock the crust down as another form takes his place. The shadow reaches down towars you as you pass out.

You wake up in a hospital bed with a patch over your right eye and your left arm in a sling wearing a patients gown. You look around and take in the sterile room. To your right by a hospital nightstand is your cellphone, a call remote to call a nurse, and your wallet, containing your cape ID and your Metro City citizen card, which is sitting a top your folded cape costume.

What do you do?

You press the call button and wait a few moments. You hear footsteps approach the door and turn your head towards the door just as the nurse walks in. Shes in a black and red uniform with a snug nurses cap. You recognize the uniform. You are in the super-abled ward of Metro General.

She picks up the tablet from your bed and checks the machines as she looks over your biometrics.

"Miss Klein I see you're doing better. How are you feeling?"

"Like abosolute shit... How long have I been out."

Your voice comes out a little gravely.

The nurse keeps checking the machines as she replies.

"You have been asleep for 2 days."

You sit up a bit more in your bed and wince at the pain in your chest. You can feel the bruise from the pulse round and its harsh.

You cough a bit to clear your voice up a bit.

"What happened?"

She looks at you a bit unamused.

"Well if what Sonic Strike told me was true when the police had everything wrapped up at the warehouse and checked all the nearby cctv it looks like you, a cape that just got her liscence a few days ago, attempted to bust a pretty decent shipment of nitro, ALONE I might add, and went up against four armed criminals, half of which had energy weapons, and ended getting herself beat up after your powers malfunctioned. Honestly if the Crusaders didn't plan on also being at that drop off you would have been killed."

You feel very, very lucky and grossly embarrased.

She sighs and looks down. She goes over to a nearby desk and pulls the chair from under it and over by your bedside. She sits down and looks you in the eye.

"This isn't gonna be easy to accept. I'm sorry. We really did do all we could. But the nature of the damage was very excessive. You kept entering incorporeality during the early stages of treatment before we could manage to properly sedate you. There were so many other complications. Your eye was damaged beyond repair. The nature of your power also makes it so that cybernetic replacement isn't an option as modern medicine hasn't found ways to make them work with the phasing ability.
You will never have full depth perception ever again."

You feel.... miserable. You reach up and touch the patch over your wounded socket and press lightly. There is no resistance. It's gone.

This one's better than crying like a bitch, desu.

So what now? Do we just quit? This isn't like the comics.

>>3714832

It all seemed so simple when you were little. The bad guys lost and the good guys win. Justice prevails and no one gets hurt. But thats just cartoons, comics, cape serialized series meant to sell knick nacks and chotchkys. Last night was real. This pain is real. Your eye was real too. You worry that you really aren't ready to be a hero like you thought you would.

You look at the nurse.

"Thank you for taking care of me."

She actually seems to smile at that.

"Just doing our job miss. Someones gotta make sure you capes don't die punching alien invaders and stoping wayward asteroids."

She stands up from her chair and heads to a nearby sink. She gets you a small paper cup full of water and hands it over. As you sip from it she says,

"Now I know you just woke up but there is someone outside who wants to see you. If you want i can send them away for later but they would really like to talk to you about what happened a few nights ago."

>Let them in.

I think we're too busy having a crisis over our hubris to think about that right now.

Just toss a coin, QM.

>>3714975
Naw its send away. it wins by majority. I was typing it up in word when my laptop crashed. Gimmie a sec.

You ask her to send them away. You just want to rest and recover right now.

"I'll let him know. Get some sleep."

She steps out into the hall and you can kinda hear her talking with a bassy voice through the door. You lay back down into your bed and let sleep overtake you.

TWO WEEKS LATER.

You are at your dinky studio apartment. You've been out of the apartment for a few days and finally feel ready enough to get back to the heroics. The pulse round left a very noticeable cross scar on your chest and there is also a vertical scar across your right socket that goes all the way down your cheek. The leather eye patch you got as a get well gift from your mom when she came to visit is doing a pretty good job of keeping your ruined eye from scaring people. Your arm is perfectly healed though... like it was never busted.

When you checked the mailbox on the way in you found a note from your landlord. He's been pretty forgiving considering the injuries but now that you're back he expects the rent for this month on time. You've got about a week to collect the 1,500 creds needed.

Normally the Superhero Initiative Registry will pay you for taking part in daily patrols, solving cases for concerned citizens, or after assissting in major crisises and natural disasters. But since you haven't been working for the past two weeks you aren't exactly flush with cash. Then again there is... the CARD.

The nurse gave it to you after you checkes out. The guy who came to visit left it and recommended you get in contact as soon as possible. Its got a Stylized letter S on the front and on the back it simply has a phone number. You know very well whose it is though. You'd know Sonic Strikes logo anywhere.

What do you do?

You pick up the card and call the number on the back. The phone rings a few times.
You can still back out. What if he's mad. What if he revokes your lisence!!!!! He can too. He's on SIR's Experienced Legacy Commitee. Maybe you should just drop the call and *CLICK*

"HUZZAH! This is SONIC STRIKE speaking. May I ask who i have the EXTREME pleasure of talking too?"

You can practically hear him flexing over the phone...

>This is Specter Streak...
>This is Karina Klein...

"This is Specter Streak. You saved me when I failed at busting the nitro shipment."

There is silence on his end for a brief moment.

"HMMMM!!!!! Ah yes i remember. The girl with half of the phantom suite. Glad to hear you are doing so WELL!"

You can't see it but you imagine him flexing everytime he raises his voice.

"I'd like you to come to my auxilary office at the SIR building downtown. I have a proposition for you I think you'd like to hear. I'll be hear all day. Just let the girl at the front desk know who you are and she'll send you up. Goodbye."

With a *CLICK* the call ends.
Well.... What do you do now?

You hop on bus donning your hero outfit since you haven't really had a chance to do any laundry since you've been back. At least they can pass for edgy street clothes in a pinch. You look at the city through the windows of the hovering vehicle. You don't appreciate enough but this city really is amazing. During the night when crime is bad its easy to dunk on Metro City. But in the day you can see it for what it is, a living breathing place full of people. Magnetrains and hovercars and just all these people. Each one with a story or a dream and they all have so much potential. It really is beautiful here.

After the wistful moment you realize you've made it to your stop. You look up as you step off the bus at the monolithic skyscraper that houses the SIR. You make your way inside the building and make your way to the service desk. At the desk is a bespecticled office worker tapping away at a plethora of holo screens. He's abosutely swamped with work. He looks to you for a second and looks back to his screens. You blink and in that moment there are two of him. He walks from behind the desk and greets you very pleasantly.

"Hello. How may I help you today?"

You let him know that you're Specter Streak. You have an appointment.

"Ah yessssss. I remember now. Give me your hand."

You always hate this part. You take his hand and in an instant you are at Sonic Strike's office on the 35th floor. You feel uneasy and kind of sick.

"He's expecting you. Just walk right in."

You take a deep breath and enter his office.

You can't see him anywhere 'till you notice the slow rise and fall of his desk. You lower your gaze and see he is bench pressing it.

"AH!!!!! Young hero!!! HRRRRGH!!!! Get on the desk I could use some more weight!"

>So is that why you wanted me here or...
>Sure why not...
>No. What is this meeting about.
>Write in.

"Sure why not."

You walk over and hop onto the desk you cross your legs and get comfortable as he goes back to his benches.

"So is this the only reason you called me here or....."

He pauses.

"No."

He continues his lifting.

"I called you hear because I wanted to talk to you about your future as a hero. That night I saved you I had to go over the cctv footage with the police. You weren't doing to bad actually. You're just kinda green. So here's what Im want to do i want to take away this."

He's holding your solo license. When did he ...

"And give you this instead."

He hands you a provisional team license. He puts the desk down and kneels so he's at eye level with you.

"I think you have a lot of potential Specter. I just don't think you have the experience to be out there by yourself right now. I want you to find at least two other team members and work as a cape team until you feel you have the experience to go out a work as a solo. You don't have to say yes. If you want I can crush and invalidate that prov license and give you back your solo one right now."

What do you say?

>"If this is what you think is best."
>"I think I'm ready. Gimmie that solo license."
>Write in.

>>3716460
>"If this is what you think is best."

All of a sudden a million worries pass through your head. Maybe you aren't as you thought you were. If he really wanted to he could have just revoked your lisence entirely.

>>3716475

"Hmmmm. YES!!! HUZZAH!!!! You'll see young Specter! This is the start of a very promising career."

He brings a chair from over by the window and sits back down at his desk like a normal person should.

"I know you have a promising future ahead of you. If you go out into the hall. The Duplicate will take you to where you want to go just ask. I expect big things from you. Call me again should you ever need advice."

You exit the office and a 3 feet from the door is The Duplicate. The bespecticled assistant who brought you up here a moment ago.

"Where can I take you?"

If you want to get back to work you need to find two team members stat. You better start your search today.

"Flex Grips please."

He takes your hand and in an instant you're there. Jesus this sucks. You puke a little in your mouth. Fuck teleporting seriously. The worst of the mobility suite.
You'd take flying or super speed anyday.

Just as he drops of you off he's gone in the same instant. You turn to get a better look at the building. Its a simple 3 story buidling near Starlight Park with a glowing sign neon sign in an intense font that reads "FLEX GRIPS!".

You step inside and to your left near the counter you see a simple community game room. A foosball table, a ping pong table, a Galacticon arcade cabinet, 2 vending machines, a water fountain, and a couple of sets of rounded tables and chairs. At the back wall of this rumpus area is a holographic wall tablet covered in different pieces of data.

There are a couple of sidekicks playing ping pong and there is a very upset looking cape shaking a vending machine. He is wearing a domino mask and a bandana .His is draped in a desperado pancho. Under his poncho is a leather vest and a wrinkled white button up. He is wearing sturdy jeans and leather chaps and modified spurred cowboy boots. It looks like there are little chambers where the spurs should be and a strange black and neon revolver on his hip.

To the right is the is the entrance to the gym.

You aren't entirely broke. You have at least 10CDs to your name. You go to the machine next to the cowboy and and look at the options. A plethora of finger foods to choose from but you are distracted by the cowboy.

"Consarnit!!! C'mere you varmint!!!

From this angle up close you can see the source of his frustation. A bag of beef jerky thats wedged between the plexiglass and the stock part of the machine. The most cruel of fates.

>>3717089

You can't bare to see his struggle. You to have been the victim of the treachery of vending machines.

"Step back I got this."

He turns to you, confused for only a second, as you phase your hand through the glass and flick the beef jerky with your finger and watch as it clatters to the bottom. While you can't use your phasing to pull objects out from blocked spaces you can control what parts of your body are incorporeal at any given time to manipulate things through physical barriers. It takes a bit more finesse but in a low stakes environment you can do it pretty easily.

You phase shift your hand to be incorporeal once more and pull it back out.

He takes his jerky and even though you can't see his eyes behind the white material of his domino mask you can FEEL the sparkle in his eyes.

"Well butter my biscuit! Thanks pardner. I was just about to turn this here thing into swiss cheese in a second. You just gone and saved me a lot of grief."

He holds out a hand for a shake. You realize something you hadn't noticed before. His arms and hands... they're cybernetic. The lights of the gameroom reflect of his chrome hand.

"Names Sixer, and who is it that I have the pleasure of speaking to?"

"I'm Specter Streak."

He whistles at your grip. He seems impressed.

"Well it's good to meetcha Specter. What brings you down to the Ol'Flex Grips"
