IC: Gabriel
SNAP.
IC Tokiomi
"Okay, I can see that working for a smaller scale project, maybe something 20 feet tall, but this?" Eyes glued to the camera, Tokiomi intently viewed the construction site of the sleeper. "This was definitely not what I expected. HYDRA sure took a lot into account; how are we going to track them now?" Tokiomi sighed, but his face remained still. "At least now we can get a good idea of their budget. Underwater construction plus access to materials that can actually support the weight of the sleeper, multiply all that by fifteen... Where are they getting the money?"
IC: Nero chuckled at the descriptor. "That's definitely one way of putting it. Yeah, I have doggy senses. I could probably help out with the scent trail thing."
IC: TLAW-001 Vivus
"Well, I guess that explains how they built it without us knowing..." mused Vivus. "But still, they managed to get that much money? That's insane..."
IC
"Yes Nicole, but we do not kidnap future members. It sort of puts us in a bad light. And I especially don't like to look bad." She said sternly.
IC: Nicole
The White Rook lowered her head. "I know... it was a bad move. I was sort of drunk when I hit him in the head with the bottle... it won't happen again." she then looked into Lynae's eyes.
"This won't be on you my Queen, I take all the blame. Only I look bad, not you."
IC: Jennifer
"They are Hydra, they have all the money in the world they could ever need." she sighed. "I doubt they built the entire thing here. Most likely they shipped it in large pieces hidden in crates desquised as other things. There are many such crates for companies on the docks."
IC: Ashley
"The more tracking the better!" Ashley said enthusiastically as Christine approached the group. "We're tracking down Nicole! She kidnapped Dallas." You'd think Ashley would tired of repeating herself, but she didn't seem to mind.
OOC: Alright I think that's enough people for this party XD
IC: Jeffery Dallas
Jeffery felt a unexpected jolt go up his entire body as he was phasing through the doorway, when he'd cleared it he became solid again and collapsed on the floor inside the dorm room. He panted heavily, it had been quite jarring, it had felt sorta like last time Gabriel had used his powers on him...for some reason it had been a lot more shocking that even the first time Gabriel had done this.
"GABRIEL! What the ######!?" Jeffery called out in a much higher pitched, feminine voice. Thanks to Gabriel, Jeff had crossed the sexes yet again and was now female.
I knew this would happen... He...She was honestly surprised it hadn't happened sooner since Gabriel had showed up. When she was finally over the shock of the transformation (any experience she couldn't get used to) she got up and opened the door for Gabriel. She said nothing.
IC: Gabriel
"Couldn't resist."
OOC: Yeah I thought I'd make it even, 3 girls and 3 guys right? Tyrell, Nero, Morrison. Ashley, Sierra, Chrisitne.
IC: Mimic
"What in the HeII? Why did Nicole kidnap Dallas?" Christine was shocked, really shocked actually. "Well count me in. Ah'll do my best to help you get em' back safely."
IC Tokiomi
"The fact that the entire thing disintegrated makes tracking all the individual parts impossible," Tokiomi said, eerily calm. "Unless the USA government has been using security cameras to monitor the ocean without my knowledge, we don't really have any leads on this-wait, maybe we can examine the construction site up closer? We may not find anything useful, but just in case."
IC
"So you were under the influence when you were driving? And with a passenger that you care about? My... Nicole you must learn to think before you act... And perhaps stay away from the bottle you're much too young for that." She sighed and sipped her tea.
"To do such recklessness... It's not very intelligent."
IC: Nicole
"Yeah I was...." she bit her lip. "Its actually amazing we got here okay."
"I know... but I am blonde." she shrugged, as if that was an excuse. Even she knew it wasn't a real one.
IC: Jennifer
"Exaimine away," she said as she continued to pilot the sub around the abyss shining the light on the various construction objects left behind.
IC Peter
The teacher paid no mind to the sixt person that had joined them. His full attention was on Morrison and Sierra, who were tracking the scent. "Let's hope that their noses are as good as they say... Wait." "Uh, guys?" Peter asked. "Hopefully it won't come to this, but if we have to go into the city, won't people notice a kitsune and a bat-wolf running around town? I mean, it's not something that you see everyday; won't we be too conspicuous?"
IC: Ashley
"The mind of pure evil is hard to understand, who knows why she did it?"
IC: Jeffery
'Jess' face softened as she sighed, as if she was giving up in defeat. "Well, I guess I can understand the desire to play around with your powers...just don't expect me to start becoming attracted to you or anything, that's not happening." 'Jess' figured Gabriel wasn't like that but she said it just in case.
"Anyway...come on in, I guess the other half of the dorm is yours now." 'Jess' side had her belonging and a rather messy bed, while the other side of the room had been completely untouched for the most part, looking rather spacious and a completely made bed. 'Jess' had always figured that if anyone new had come to the institute she'd have to share eventually and so she'd left that side alone.
'Jess' collapsed onto her bed back first and stared at the ceiling, trying not to think about the current state of her body. She figured if maybe she acted like it didn't bother her all that much many Gabriel would get bored and let her change back. She flinched at the thought of being stuck as a girl whenever she was in their room.
IC
"... I am blonde. Are you trying to insult me?" She said with venom in her voice.
IC: Gabriel
Gabriel shrugged, shifting into a blue-haired female form. She actually had no idea why her hair was such a colour in this body, but she decided it was probably some random genetic quirk she may have inherited from an ancestor or something.
"Surprised my side hasn't been touched," she commented, dropping to the ground to look under the bed. "Oh hey, my stuff is still here."
IC: Nicole
"No, no, no... I was jut saying that I'm... not implying anything about you..." she looked away. "Sorry my queen I meant no disrespect. It was a bad joke."
IC
"Indeed it was. Perhaps you can find a class at the institute to better educate you in comedy. Or you could just go to school and learn period. Then maybe you would make better life choices." She said with a sigh, her fingers massaging her temples.
IC: Nicole
"Maybe," she said softly. "That is if they didn't find out I captured Dallas. I might not be able to go back there."
IC
"You let me and the other royals take care of that. Although, I don't think Dallas will be very happy with you... And he seemed to care so much for you. It's a pity."
IC:
"I spend far too much time letting you have your way." Tera noted, raising an eyebrow at the quick hug, though she didn't comment. "I mean really, far too often."
OOC: Uber-exciting reintroduction; GO! In all seriousness, I'm way behind, so there's not much I can do yet. Multiple characters will be getting a better reintroduction shortly.
If I missed something someone posted, I apologize.
IC: Nero slouched slightly in his chair and took an experimental whiff of the air, deciding to lock onto the most perfume-like, over-sweet scent he could pick up on. It wasn't overtly hard to pick one out from the masses that seemed right, but Nero figured it best to try and follow along with the people who had been tracking already. If, as they traveled, the scent persisted, then it was fairly likely that Nero was on the right track.
IC: Nicole
"I know... I've ruined everything. We were so close." she was forced to hold back tears at the thought of Dallas hating her. She didn't want to look weak infront of Lynae. She'd already done enough.
IC
The vampire sighed and patted her head again. "Now now, you dug yourself into this so try to find a way out. Now, drink your tea and calm down."
IC: Nicole
"I will," she said firmly. "I won't give up on Dallas. I'll apologize and hopefully with time he will forgive me." she said. She sighed deeply and grabbed her cup of tea before taking a sip.
IC: Aella
"I'm not complaining!" I replied cheekily, my stomach grumbled slightly, when where those pancakes gonna be done?
IC: Ashley
"Ah I wouldn't worry about that Peter! Will just explain that we're looking for my boyfriend!"
IC: Jeffery
"Yeah I figured I shouldn't touch that side, I figured someone would eventually move in...guess I was right." 'Jess' said, still getting used to the fact that that was her voice. She knew she'd be a guy again in about an hour, as long as Gabriel didn't user her powers on her again.
IC: Gabriel
"Huhm, I'm missing a book. Have you seen the 'Guide to Summoning Kszufnjemsilyoinatidno Via Goat Rituals' anywhere?"
IC: 'Jess'
IC:
"Well of course you aren't, you manipulative little trickster." The pacifist replied with mock annoyance, sitting down on the one portion of the couch (All five inches of it) that Aella wasn't occupying.
"I wonder what's taking GI Joe with the pancakes."
IC: Mikhail
Mikhail popped his head out of the kitchen.
"They are complete."
IC: Gabriel
"Ah. Can I have that back?"
IC
"Just try... Don't push him too hard." She said, sipping her own tea after speaking.
IC: Aella
I couldn't help but giggle at being called manipulative and trickster, it felt rather fitting.
"Well, I guess it takes exactly that long!" I was eager to try these pancakes, it was new and exciting! Plus I was starving.
IC: 'Jess'
"Yeah...just try to find something to put under that desk, it wobbles."
IC: Gabriel
The blue-haired girl wiggled deeper under the bed.
"Think a fake rubber hand might work?"
IC:
"Need any help serving them, Mikhail?"
IC: Mikhail
"It would be appreciated."
IC: 'Jess'
"I'm not gonna ask why you have a fake rubber hand, but yes."
IC:
"Alright."
Tera stood in a single fluid motion, traversing the short distance to the kitchen in a few moments, rolling her sleeves up slightly. "What can I do to help?"
IC: Mikhail
"Could you pass the plates please?"
IC: Gabriel
A decapitated rubber hand flew Jeff's way.
IC: 'Jess'
Jess caught the hand, looking at it with mild curiosity for a moment before tossing it to the side. "I'll put it under the desk later."
IC: Gabriel
"alright."
