What They Call Us

Sooth

"What?" I demanded, striding forward, towards the meddlesome mutant, as fast as possible.
"Sir, it seems the two mutants fought back. One obliterated all memories of you from their minds," the frightened guard replied.
"No matter," I replied. "A beginner's mistake. She forgot to delete the memories of the camp and their mission. I'm sure they're fine, the triggered memories should have taken care of that. Now, call all our forces: I want those two now! Kill them if you must"

Lacie

More guards come and I do the same thing for them exept they cut the vines. I clench my fists and larger vines rush in, holding thrm by thier torsos. I had poision ivy hook onto them. They were screaming to get out and I grinned.

"I'm not letting you go. Or I'll just feed you guys to Ivy." I said as Ivy slithers off my arm and makes his way to them.

Sooth

"Well now," I said, reaching the mutant. Ah - Lacie: the nature manipulator. And with her, Ingrid. Two very powerful mutants. "You're the two all this fuss was about. No matter." I motioned for my guards to stand down. "It's late, but I see you two aren't that tired. How about we go to my office? We have things to discuss."
However, just in case, I had several dozen snipers hidden, in case they fought back. No escape for them this time. Though I really did not want to harm the two. To have them as allies would be fantastic. Plus they had spunk. I liked that.

Lacie

I chuckle, "Yeah right like I would--" I couldn't finish my sentence when someone with a gun points it at me.

I smile, "Try me." I put my hands up. He shoots one and I catch it in mid-air, grinning. "Don't try."

A frightened look comes across the shooters face and I chuckle again, dropping the bullet as my vines drop the guards. "Why should I go with you?" I ask, crossing my arms, grinning.

Spoiler

Goddamn. WHY are all my men portrayed as WEAKLINGS??!!!

Sooth

"Now now," I said, calm as ever, raising my hands in a gesture for peace. "Lacie. Think about this. Work with me, and I can help you master your powers. Ingrid, the same for you. Lacie." I was more urgent now, using all my reserves of power. "think about it! Once I conquer those humans, I can stop pollution, heal and restore the nature that has been destroyed by them! By attacking my guards, you help those monsters! Help me - help the world. Do the right thing, Lacie." However, if she refused again, I activated my defense. A chemical, injected in nearly all the mutants of my camp - not the ones loyal to me, of course - that would, at a flick of my wrist, incapacitate all mutants, rendering their powers temporarily useless.

Lacie

Stop pollution? Anything...

I snapped out of it, realizing he was doing something. I swallowed.

Do the right thing...

I hesitated before looking down at Ivy. He wraps around my ankle and I sigh. Anything to help the Earth, or nature. Plants exit the place and my eyes turn green. My skin becomes not stressed anymore and became the flawless skin it was always.

"F-Fine." I chocked.

Sooth

"Good. Excellent. And now... by all means, go to bed, I guess. The guards will escort you to the luxury quarters," I replied. "You too, Ingrid. We'll talk tomorrow. And, Lacie? Beware Gemini. Of all the mutants, she has the most destructive, the most deadly. She'll destroy nature without a second thought, just to kill me - us. You don't want that, do you?"

Spoiler

By the way, Sooth is also really convincing because he believes what he says.

Lacie

Gem wouldn't hurt me.

"Gem is my friend. She wouldn't dare hurt nature. If she does then I wont hesitate to cut her blood line with vines." I say confidently. A flower grew in my hand and I put it in my hand, Ivy hissing. I chuckled, and looked at Sooth. "Trust me. I can handle Gem. One bite from Ivy and she'll be dead in a minute."

PixieStix, be careful not to god-mod. Guards will obviously be stronger and quicker and more trained than us.
Ingrid

Approaching Sooth, I slid my hand into his "I'm not tired, can we go to your offive? I want to see it. What's your favorite color? Where's Roe? Can she come with us? Do you have a power? Why are you in charge? What's your favorite food? Do you have a dog? Do you like my dress? Are you married? Did you know my parents?"

"It's time for bed Ingrid." He urged

"but i'm not sleepy!" I protested.

"Roe will be there, in your room" He coaxed.

At the mention of Roe, I dropped his hand, waved goodbye, and ran to my room.

Sooth

"Very good, Lacie," I purred, once Ingrid had gone. I promised myself that I'd pay more attention to her tomorrow. My hands were on lacie's shoulders - physical contact increased my influence - and steered her towards the sleeping area. "Very good. But remember, friends can often be deceiving. You can't trust them, Lacie. Don't trust any of them. You just keep on thinking about the great things we can accomplish together. We'll begin your training tomorrow"
She nodded her assent, completely under my spell now, Ingrid following. And as time passed, she would only fall deeper and deeper into believing me, until she'd be utterly mine.

Spoiler

this is getting good. Watch out, Lheart!

Spoiler

I'm not...She's not physically trained she's just really smart when someone doesn't attack her physically.

Lacie

Sooth leads me to my room and I sit on the bed, confused. I practice my powers and have vines come through the windows to re-decorate. Snakes slither in and wrap around my rists. I chuckle and fill a cup with thir poision.

I hesitate before taking a sip, already feeling the poision making me stronger. My eyes turn yellow and I chuckle.

Bring it on Gem.

Kei

I went to my new room mechanically. The room was huge and I had a roommate. Lacie was on the bed and she gasped when saw me.

"Kei!" she shouted. She ran over and hugged me and I was confused.

"Lacie? What are you doing here?" I asked

Spoiler

Would it be okay is Kei roomed with Sooth at the moment?

Lacie

I saw Kei walk into my room and I shouted in Joy.

"Kei!" I ran over and hugged him.

"Lacie? What are you doing here?" He asks. I let go of him. "I'm um...Helping Sooth. What about you?"
