Voltages (Closed)

Victoria

I sigh, smiling, stepping up. I close my eyes and take a deep breath before opening them again, instead of brown they were red.

I grabbed my bow and arrow from my bag and transfered some of my fire into it, slinging it back onto it's strap. I run towards him, flames bouncing off my arms and he moves out of the way. I chuckle and turn around, running towards him again. He stays in place and I slide underneath him, interlocking my foot with his and bringing him down. I stand and dust myself off. He catches me by surprise and sprays me with water, my flames going out. I chuckle and look at him. "Well played." I say, crossing my arms.

He stands and motions me to come foward. I rush foward and was about to punch him when he grabs my fist and flips me having me land HARD on the ground.

"Ouch..." I chuckled, shaking out my fist.

Nephil

We walk towards the lanching bay for our mission's start. Another Hidden comes to my side as he explains the details of what we know and don't, I make quick arrangement's for a personal driver since I'll need time to explain thing's. Our target desitination was in Tennessee, , that was the last location known of the Hidden group that had gone missing. We finally arrive at the lanching bay and I dismiss the Hidden, and get into one of the army style transport's. I finally notice Twila behind me who was earily quiet even for her, I read the sign's as Zaen point's towards me about the sword.

"Zaen has been made my apprentice, she's going to get much tougher training and more than anyone else in my classes. And if you want to come along hop in, must warn you this is a high risk mission we may encounter Loyalist along the way." I tell her.

She gets in beside me regardless of the warning Zaen follows behind and then two other people join in at the front seat's the driver, and another assinged to this mission. We soon take off as the blinding light comes from the opening door's, and soon we were on the road headed for our destination.

Trevor

I flip Tori to the ground and set my foot gently on her stomach, holding her wrist up. My boot covers with a layer of water, preventing her from using her fire to get out of this.

"Never be too eager," I warn, "Experienced Hiddens would be prepared for that. You wouldn't last long."

I let her go and help her up, signalling the end to the fight.

"Next," I call.

``````````````````
Zaen

Master tells Twila of my apprenticeship and then leads us into a transport. We hop in and take off, the sudden sunlight temporarily affecting their vision. I'm fine, light being one thing I can manipulate, but don't lead onto so. Sitting quietly, I glance down at the sword and trace my hand discretely over the hilt, smiling lightly.

Mince

I jump down from my branch and strode proudly towards Trevor. "I'm in," I say smiling.

"Very well," Trevor says.

I unsling my sword and tightened the string so that I wouldn't unsheathe it. I ran at Trevor, fire forming around the sheathe and hilt making one large sword.

Twila-
Of course I come with. I'm not going to let Zaen go on her first big, tough mission without me at her side. Besides, I really do need a change of scenery. Memories are starting to catch up with me here, and when memories catch, it's time to start running.
"How do you sign plane?" I ask Zaen, thinking it'll be helpful to know in the future.

Trevor

Mince draws his sword and I flash a smile, unsheathing mine.

"As I said to Tori, don't hold back," I remind him, getting into stance.

My eyes flicker to both swords and I remember the last time I was in such a scenario. Shaking my head, I force the memory out of my mind and focus. I allow him to make the first move.

`````````````````````
Zaen

On the ride over, Twila asks for a translation of the word 'plane' in sign. I think about it a moment, remembering the last time it was necessary for me to even think of that word. When I'm done recollecting, I sign it for her, slowly at first to make sure she gets it.

Twila-
I practice the sign a few times, then give Zaen a half smile. I like signing; it's something for my hands to do that's a bit more productive than drumming on the nearest surface all the time. I wonder what Mark would think about signing. NO! I'm not going to think about Mark, I'm not going to think about him or about how much I could lose on this mission.
I can't pace in the plane, but my fingers tap furiously and my feet join them. I stare out the window as the landscape sweeps by below, fighting tears.
"Are we going to land soon?" I ask, "I miss the earth."

Mince

I jumped clear over Trevor, a pillar of fire encasing him. I spun around slicing my fire sword at him. He dove out the way, a aura of water encasing him. I grimaced and spun around Trevor's swings and water attacks. Focusing, I swing my blade, launching fire air slices.

Trevor jumped to the side, sending his own water air slices. I lunged forward, fire exploding from me as I opened my first gate. I jumped into the air, my speed increasing. I landed behind Trevor and kicked out at his head, connecting. Trevor slid to the ground and I jumped, about to attack...

[Finish it here Up]

Nephil

I listen as the two chit chat or watch however you want to put it cause Twila talked when she didn't know a certain sign, I was happy I was able to deem my apprentice and finally get behind this mystery of what's happening to my Hidden groups. I look to Zan who looked at the blade showing it off to Twila, they both looked happy so I was fine with it.

"Zaen, regardless of the fact were on a high prioity mission, you're still going to get a lesson or two on you're next training. And I promise you'll have plenty of time to use you're new sword." I told her

Meanwhile..............

Kira Lowell

I sat on a log, just off from the fire as my brother placed more wood on the fire, I blasted it with another round of fire to help the camp fire keep on burning. I rost some of the meet one of my brother got from hunting some near by wild life, I roasted the stuff until it was well cooked and took it off it's spot.

"Yo sis, got more supplies from that last Hidden group! Where you want them?" My brother Jop asks.

"Over there by the tent's!" I tell him pointing towards the three tents we set up for each of us.

"Right." He replies.

I pick up the one handed blade I picked up from the last group and walk over to my sister's tent and duck inside.

"Hey you alright?" I ask my sister Aaron.

She nods and I crouch down next to her and cress her cheeks.

"I'm going to go do some hunting I'll be right back ok?" I asked her.

Trevor

Mince attacks, a draw set between us for a little. He lunges and lands behind me, kicking my head in. I drop to the ground and he jumps again, my blade barely blocking the blow. Memories of fighting with my... I shake them away but they keep coming back, replaying in my mind until I drop the sword, my hands shaking.

I pull myself out from under the sword and glance at the others.

"Stella, train with Tori," I order, trying to keep my voice from wavering. "Mince, help the other two. I-I'm gonna take a walk."

I bolt off before they can question me, heading into the nearby forest and breaking into a sprint.

Aaron-

I sat in camp for minutes, listening and feeling Kira and Jop do work. Kira asks me about gear, Jop responds before I can. He comes over and asks me if I'll be alright if they go hunting.

Yeah sure, go kill some animals and leave me here in camp. It's not like I can sense if an animal is nearby or where or not it know's we see it.

"Yeah, I'll be fine." I get up and jump in my tent. I grab my knife and a piece of wood that I'd been carving. I whittled it incoherently.

Stella

"Stella, train with Tori," Trevor instructed. "Mince, help the other two. I-I'm gonna take a walk." Trevor strode off, looking thoroughly distressed.

"Come on," Tori said, leading me to our target range. When I had first made my bow, Tori had set fire to a few trees, burning them down to stumps for me to shoot at. There were three of them, lined up in a row, at the edge of a large clearing. Tori and I had marked off distances in ten-foot intervals, up to a hundred feet.

"Okay," Tori began. "Because there are so many of us with light or fire powers, you're probably going to have to change your vision really quickly during a fight. So I'm going to create distractions, and you have to hit all three of the stumps in ten seconds. Okay?"

"Sure," I said, readying my bow. "Let's go. Whenever you're ready."

Tori let loose with a burst of light, overwhelming my ultraviolet vision. I quickly shifted into microwave, and shot my first arrow, hitting the tree stump dead center. Then a jet of flame appeared in front of me, and I adjusted my vision to x-ray. The tree stump was harder to see that way, so my arrow almost missed, just managing to stick near the top. Then Tori flashed another light, and I dimmed my vision down to the far infrared, hitting the last stump in the center.

When Tori's light died down, I tuned my vision back to ultraviolet. "How was that?" I asked.

Twila-
We were landing and excitement pulsed through me like an earthquake through the ground. Finally, I'd be able to do something good, something that would change the world for the better.
"What's the attack plan?" I ask Nephil.

Victoria

Stella asked me how she did when she was hitting the tree stumps and I chuckled. "Amazing, Stella. But one thing you need to keep note on is when you shoot your arrow, theres not just gonna be fires going around the place. People are gonna be trying to get to you so you need to shoot QUICK. This might be hard at first but you'll get the hang of it. Like this." I tell her, stepping in her position.

I take my bow and arrow from my back and shoot five arrows, hitting the target, one second each. "Now you try." I step out of the way.

Nephil

"Our first objective is to identify what's been causing the disappearences of the Hidden groups. Then we eliminate the cause and recurit whatever shadows maybe lurking about." I told Twila.

I sensed this mission was going to be difficult far more than I'm used to, but I was up to for the challenge. I would have my most trusted and another at my side to aid me, Twila who had been able to practice more of her element thanks to Zaen, and Zaen who had made it to apprentice as before this mission. I was confident to get though this mission, just hopefully without any casualties.

Kira Lowell

"Don't worry Jop will look after you while I'm gone, he'll keep you safe." I told her and she nodded reluctantly.

I walk outside to see Jop finished collecting the supplies, I put on my shades and leather gloves and get ready for a fight.

"Alright Jop where's the next group at?" I ask him.
