The 'World of Heroes: DC Style" RPG Season II

[PFunk2]

OOC; Okay I'm back

The night John Stewart heads over to find Warrior's, Guy Gardners old bar and to his surprise finds that it's still open and lands in a abandoned alley a block away. Shifting from his GL uniform to normal clothes as he does. Doning a pair of shades to hide his glowing eyes he soon arrives at the bar's front door.

(sigh) "Somethings never change I supposed." he says to himself as he's bumped by a few people leaving the place.

Then, opening the door John walks on in.

After a delicious meal, Digger invited Irving outside to share an after dinner drink and cigar.

Digger met Irving outside with two glasses, a bottle of rum, and two fine Cuban cigars. Then the men noticed they were missing a crucial element to their after dinner relaxation plan...ICE!!!!

As if on cue, Irving's wife, Edna, appeared with a small bucket of ice. "You boys forget something?" she giggled.

 

[nixonbat]

"Ah...honey, I'd be lost without you," said Irving.

"Yes, you would," she replied with a smile.

"Yeh're a wonderful woman Mrs. Weinberg," Digger said.

"Please, Ben, call me Edna...if you're willing to spend time out on your vacation to entertain my Irving, you can at least use my name," said Edna.

"Noted...thanks Edna," was Diggers response.

Digger admired the way these two worked as a team and seemed to genuinely care for each other. They made him think for a moment about settling down himself. That thought passed quickly though, as his travel and sporadic stints in prison made such a union unrealistic for a man of his chosen profession.

He and Irving chatted it up for a little over two hours before deciding to call it a night.

As they entered the large hut they could see all the other members of the tour group playing cards. Digger saw that the attractive blond was with them also...

 

[nixonbat]

For a passing moment Digger thought about knocking on her door later in the night. He let the thought pass, however, as he figured if she was what she seemed he would ruin any chances of actually bedding her. He also realized that if she was what he feared she might be, that such a move would give her the upper hand.

Foregoing the possible embarrassment, Digger opted to turn in for the night. By 10:30 pm all noise in the kwansit had ceased as the occupants gave in to slumber.

At a little after 2 am, Digger was awakened by loud voices speaking a foreign language. Then he heard the crash of furniture. He knew immediately what was happening. It was raiders.

Digger quickly armed himself with both large and small boomerangs and slipped out the small window of his quarters.

Once outside, Digger made his way around back to the generator and cut the power. The hut was plunged into darkness and Digger could hear the raised voices of bandits and awakened tourists mixing inside.

'Boyo's...yeh've crashed the wrong mans vacation' he thought.

With that, Digger quickly rounded to the front of the hut...it was time to punish these cowards who would rob old people. It was time to hurt the men who had the stupidity to ruin his good nights sleep.

At the front he saw two figures standing watch by a jeep. Digger attacked them silently by hand and rendered them unconcious with rapid fists in under 3 seconds.

He paused for a breath and headed for the open door. He just hoped he didn't have to blow his cover. He hoped to handle this in the darkness and thus allow himself plausible deniability.

This one would be tricky.


TO BE CONTINUED..............

Dent went too Gotham bridge a filthy place, his new suit was getting dirty.



He needed too call someone or something, a monster called the Joker getting out his cell he phoned The Monster.



“Hello Joker, we need too talk, meet me up at Gotham bridge”

 

[Keyser Soze]

OOC Post:

Karem-Knight, you'll need to change that post. My hideout is in a secret location - Dent wouldn't know where it is. You would have to phone The Joker and ask him to meet up with you somewhere.

However, one other thing you have to consider is that Dent is being blackmailed into working with The Joker. Two-Face hates The Joker, dating all hte way back to "The Long Halloween" - it is a grudging alliance.

I've been very impressed with how you've been portraying Two-Face, KK. That's just a couple of notes to keep in mind.

 

[The Joker]

Business had been good at the Iceberg Lounge this evening.Cobblepot's cronies were throwing the last of the patrons out.Meanwhile in the back room the owner and proprieter Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot better known in the Gotham underworld as The Penguin was immersed in counting his takings.

He popped a cigarette into his cigarette holder as Lark one of his lounge girls leaned over and lit it for him.

"Thank you my dear" he said as he inhaled the smoke deeply before puffing it out."A handsome sum we have netted this evening.It all goes to my ever growing nest egg" Penguin said as he stood up and opened his wall safe.

There was a knock on the door."Come in" the Penguin said as he put the last of the cash he the safe and locked it.Bruno,one of his bouncers came in.

"The place is all locked up Mr Cobblepot" he said."Thank you Bruno" Penguin said as he tossed him a wad of cash."Have a good evening".Bruno nodded and left.

"You too my dear Lark.I am ascending to my nest for the rest of the night.You know your way out" Penguin said as he put on his top hat and picked up his umbrella and waddled to his private elevator that took him to his penthouse above the lounge.

The Penguin always believed he was a man of class.And his criminal career was always striving to provide him with that classy life he always yearned for.And now that he had it he still kept his beak in the dirtiest of dealings in Gotham.

But this time he was out of reach of the law,but most importantly the Batman's.Penguin could laugh right in Batman's face and still reap the rewards of his crimes.Life was good for Oswald Cobblepot.

As he stepped out of the elevator into his penthouse his pet vulture Percibil flew off his perch to greet him by landing on his shoulder."Hello my feathered friend.Have you missed daddy??" he said affectionately as he went to the kitchen and gave the bird a slab of meat.The vulture grabbed it in its beak and flew off and perched on top of the penthouse to eat it undisturbed.

Penguin placed his umbrella in the rack of many umbrellas he always kept by his bed.He picked up the TV remote and turned it on to the evening news.Normally there was the usual uninteresting rubbish being reported.But as Penguin began to walk out of the room to fetch himself a night cap he paused and turned back to face the TV as he heard the voice of an old aquaintance......Harvey Dent.

According to the news report Harvey Dent was back in the D.A.'s office and was cracking down on all mob bosses.The Penguin gritted his teeth in anger.Dent being a former underworld figure himself knew all about The Penguin's criminal connections.His various 'interests' and he could no doubt make life very difficult or even impossible for Penguin's various enterprises.

Then an even worse thought struck him.He could have the Batman on him too.Fouling up his nest.Destroying everything he'd built.All because Dent overcame his schizo personality and returned to the side of right and virtue.

The Penguin saw red and picked up one of his umbrellas and fired a hail of bullets at the TV screen causing it to blow in a puff of smoke.Percibil sqwaked and flapped his wings in discomfort at this.

"It seems I'll have to clip dear old Harvey's wings........before he clips mine".

 

[rigel7soldiers]

I guess I'll just call someone... a member of the Justice League... Batman could get me in, we've always had a lot common... but how to reach him, or any of them, for that matter, is beyond me...

 

[DarkKnightJRK]

I drove off to the court house to..."talk"...to Harvey Dent, who seemed to be doing illegal activities as the new D.A.. When I finally got there I saw Harvey getting into his car and driving off.

I follow him to Gotham Bridge, I stop at the edge of the bridge and turn on one of the more advanced part of the Batmobile: a camoflaging system. I press another button that activates a listening system so I can hear what's going on. I see Dent stepping out of the car and standing next to the edge. He calls someone on his cell phone and the short conversation is heard through the speakers in the Batmobile.

“Joker, we need too talk. Meet me up at Gotham Bridge.”

With that, I decide to wait there and ambush them, stopping them from commiting any more atrosities.

 

[rigel7soldiers]

Now, I have a strong mind. I try to make my presence known. ~J'onn? can you hear me?~ I asked. I heard a voice answer in the affirmative. ~Can you teleport mr to the Watchtower? I require the aid of the Justice League.~ He answered by beaming me up....

OOC: Just a small note if anyone cares; when the Meta-Brawl competition starts, It would probably be broadcast on the net. There are hundreds of supervillains in "the House" for the event, so if any heroes want to try to infiltrate it in order to do superhero-type things, feel free .

IC: The Parasite strolled to the extravagent bar in the gigantic casino. The bar's refreshments were specially picked for people like Rudy. Of important note, there were live people in the bar's stock for any flesh-eaters or in Rudy's case; energy drainers. Parasite made sure to fill 'er up. He'd need the extra stamina and strength.

As Rudy was sitting at the bar and draining a middle-aged man in chains, a woman caught his eye for the first time in years. Ever since his primary exposure to those legendary radioactive chemicals, Rudy had never had any attraction to women, he had only regarded them as possible meals. This babe, however, was a knockout, even in his eyes.
Rudy dropped the man's remains and approached Killer Frost with genuine interest in her and not her energy. He came to her side and looked where she was looking: at all the unusual costumes their fellow criminals were wearing as they wandered around the casino.

"This place reminds me of the circus," Rudy said with a smirk.

Killer Frost looked up at the Parasite's face and was surprisingly not startled at his monstrous appearance, obviously used to looking monsters in the eye. She also looked tired from endless come ons by the casino's other patrons."Yeah. Especially the freakshow section of the circus."

Rudy wasn't sure if she was hinting that he was a freak or not, so he decided to continue with this conversation. "I heard about you. They say you like the rush of adrenaline, and don't care how you get it."

Frost seemed to show some interest in where the conversation was heading. "Yeah?" she said with a raised eyebrow and a smile forming on her lips.

The Parasite switched on his inbred janitorial charms. "Well, if you're looking for something adventurous, I'll have you know that I'm a shape shifter." Rudy winked.

At the turn of the discussion, Killer Frost rolled her eyes at the Parasite's pathetic attempt at a sexual insinuation. She then aimed her hand to his groin region and instantly froze the place where Rudy's genitals would've been... if he had them in his current form. She then stomped away from Rudy, disgusted.

The Parasite watched the intoxicating woman leave him behind. He barely even noticed the solid ice around his crotch until he looked down at the results. He easily shattered the ice unscathed and undaunted. "Ooohh, sexy."

 

[rigel7soldiers]

I was walking around, looking for someone other than J'onn, who can't be bothered to listen, I guess, and I heard the Flash and the Elongated Man talking. Something about Flash needing help. Just then, I jumped in, saying, "What a coincidence, I could use some help myself. I'm trying to join up. I have some very important news. Did you guys hear what happened to Khandaq...?"

 

[Savage]

*The hell'd he get up here?*

Flash-"The Hell'd you get up here?"
Elongated-Man-"Don't mind him. He hasn't been himself these days. What's this about Khandaq?"

 

[rigel7soldiers]

"Long story short, I got Black Adam to help me against the Injustice Society, and Khandaq went to ruin while he was gone. I know Adam. He'll be coming for me. For us. All the Heroes. I want to join the Justice League. Can you help me out?"

 

[batnkevlar]

*Hal looks around for a Justice League member to help in, and before slipping back into his coma, says the words:*

"Beware Heroes of Earth and Beyond. The Reckoning is coming. The Final Chapter of the Universe comes hither!"

*With that, his brain registers no activity and he slips back into his uncosciousness...*

 

[Savage]

"Long story short, I got Black Adam to help me against the Injustice Society, and Khandaq went to ruin while he was gone. I know Adam. He'll be coming for me. For us. All the Heroes. I want to join the Justice League. Can you help me out?"

Flash-"No chance. Get out."
Elongated-Man-"FLASH!"
Flash-"Well he's got a frickin moon on his forhead. And the goggles. What is up with the goggles?"
Elongated-Man-"You're the one with bolts on your ears and yellow booties!"
Flash-"...Shut up!I don't need this. I have a murderer to find."
Elongated-Man-"You're not going to get him like this and even if you do find him, you'll be too hot-headed to concentrate. Flash he-will-kill-you!

*to Dr.Midnite*
Elongated-Man-"I'm really sorry about this. His wife died recently--"
Flash-"Murdered."
Elongated-Man-"Zoom murdered his wife. It was very recent. In fact the funeral was today but Zoom crashed it and Flash lost his cool and nearly got himself killed because he did not look before he leaped.
*He glares at me. He seems angry but that's only because he was worried sick.*

Flash-"I was doing fine."
Elongated-Man-"HE WAS GONNA SMASH YOUR HEAD IN WITH A SLEDGEHAMMER!"
Flash-"I would have gotten out of it! I'm faster than light!"
Elongated-Man-"...Whatever man. *back to Dr.Midnite* We'd be glad to help you.
Flash-"Speak for yourself."
Elongated-Man-"This is more important than your personal vendetta."
Flash-"BULLS#!T!!!"
Elongated-Man-"We are in a serious crisis here! The League itself could be in danger. I understand how you feel--"
Flash-"No Ralph, you can't POSSIBLY understand how I feel because--"
Elongated-Man-"YOU JUST USED MY REAL NAME!"
Flash-"So what? You don't trust nightgoggles here?"

Elongated-Man-"You know damn well that is not the point!"
Flash-"Then what is it?!"
Elongated-Man-"Look, we don't have time for this. Black Adam could be on his way as we speak."
Flash-"Then get one of the capes to take care of it!"
*I storm out of the room*

Elongated-Man-*to Dr.Midnite*"Excuse me for a sec. I am really sorry about all of this."
*to Flash*
Elongated-Man-"Hey, wait up...HEY!"
*I stop to see what the putz wants*
Elongated-Man-"Look, I understand that--"
Flash-"You don't f--"
Elongated-Man-"Shut up and listen!"
Flash-"..."
Elongated-Man-"...Wally you and I have been friends for a very long time now. I understand what you're going through but this has to stop. I can't stand to see you like this anymore. You're forgetting everyone who cares about you as well as who you are and the duty you chose. Now you need to realize that we are fighting an everlasting war here and that there will be casualties... Even people who are dear to us. It all comes with the tights. But if you continue down this track you're runnin there are only going to be more deaths and it will be on your hands, intentional or not. Now you can either choose to turn your back on the world and everyone in it and allow thousands if not millions of deaths for your selfish reasons or you can grow up and accept the responsibility that came with your powers.

*...Usually I'd blurt out "OWNED!" at this point but this time I'm the ownee...As much as I hate it, as much as I want nothing more than to crush Zoom's body...The safety of my friends and family along with the planet comes first...Besides...Black Adam and his cronies will provide some decent practice till I get my shot at Zoom again*

*I turn to Midnite with a slight smirk, flash a little electricity in the eyes and--*
Flash-"I'm in."

 

[Harlekin]

Deathstroke watched as Arsenal left him with his daughter, with a crossbow bolt pertruding from her right arm. All of her bones there were broken and she was slipping in and out of unconsciousness. Deathstroke hadn't taken down Arsenal when he had the chance, because he had to take care of family. The last bit of family he had. Joey, Grant, Wade and Addie all dead, with just him and Rose left.

Dropping her off at one of the super-villain hospitals located around the country, Deathstroke started his hunt. He didn't like to drop her off at one of those places, and they weren't even really supervillains, but he couldn't drop her off with the white hats and to take her to any normal hospital would be to dangerous. Supervillains might be bad guys, but most of them stuck together like glue... she'd be safe for now.

The hunt didn't take long.

The Navajo plains were a young Roy Harper had grown up, and where he would later meet his idol Green Arrow and become Speedy. Sitting in silent contemplation and mourning, Roy tried to meditate, but to no avail.

Deathstroke wasn't surprised by the sight as he approached the man. He had seen his daughter get hurt, but Arsenal had actually lost his. He deserved an honest fight.

The two engaged in battle.

After fighting in unarmed combat for a minute or two, Arsenal took up a stick as Deathstroke grabbed his sword and again blows were traded. A second later, and the stick broke. With no weapon left, and backed into the corner, Arsenal was defenseless at what was to come.

BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! BLAM! BLAM!

OOC:which characters are available in this rpg?

 

[Spike_x1]

OOC: Sorry, but I won't be posting a section of Rudy's story tonight. I've got to work on a school project and I've also discovered Kevin Smith's "Superman Lives" script on the net, so I'm reading that while I should be working.

 

[PFunk2]

"Well that was an interresting."

John Stewart says to himself as he walks out of Warriors. Thinking to himself it's certainly a lively place for a sports bar. That is a sports bar crossed with Hooters judging by the watresses there. Definatly a place not to take Wonder Woman-or any feminist minded female.

But then again since it's Guy's place I wouldn't expect anything less. Still while it was 'fun' catching up on old times with the fellow lantern. Still despite it's faults this should be a good place to take Flash for the "guys night out". Which, reacting to a loud noice behind him. John quicky turns to see some loud drunk being thrown out of the bar behind him by Guy himself. Who gives him a salute afterwards

"Oy vey." he adds, returning the salute before then entering a nearby alley to shift back to his GL uniform and heads skyward towards home.

 

[Karem-Knight]

Dent put a coat on the place was getting windy and Dark like it was always just then a hooker came by

“Hello sugar what a good time?”

“I’m the D.A. so piss off”

Just then a pimp came over one that had a broken jaw and a bit of a scratch

Harvey got his gun out

“go away or you die simple as that !” The two ran away

Harvey looked up he saw nothing.

 

[Keyser Soze]

The Joker was sitting in his hideout. Dent had called him, wanting to meet at Gotham Bridge. The Joker had said he'd be there, but something wasn't right. Why was Dent calling him? And why meet at Gotham Bridge?

But what was The Joker going to do? No show? Not an option. And he wasn't about to show up with bodyguards, look weak in front of pathetic little Harvey Dent. Since Two-Face had been pushed to the sidelines, Harv was a shadow of his former self. He didn't have the balls to try anything. No, he'd be fine. And he knew just how to make sure of that.

Chuckling softly to himself, The Joker exited The Boon Dock Bar & Grill, hopping into a stolen car.

"To Gotham Bridge!" he said to himself, before driving off to the location.

He stepped out of his car, wearing his coat and hat. He spotted Dent, wearing a black coat, standing by the bridge. He looked like hell, as if he had the weight of the world on his shoulders. The Joker approached him.

"Harv, nice to see you again. But I was supposed to call you, not the other way around..."

Harvey Dent looked up at him. His mind was clearly on something else other than the conversation.

"Sorry Joker, I guess your voice just hates me", Dent said vaguely.

The Joker's smile faded, and he frowned in impatient confusion.

"Voice just...what the hell's that supposed to mean, Harv?" The Joker snapped, "Now, it's cold, so if you have something to say, hurry up and say it before I freeze my nuts off."

Dent's lip curled in hatred. With a clenched fist, he walked right up to The Joker, staring spitefully into his face.

""Listen Joker, you killed someone, but not just anyone. You...you killed a child! A...goddamn child, that did nothing but LIVE! What did you do? Why? Couldn't you be human just ONCE!?"

Dent had a desperate, manic look in his eyes. The Joker was beginning to feel slightly intimidated. He laughed nervously.

"Harv, you've got to learn how to take a joke. HA HA!"

There was a brief moment of tense silence. Dent was almost trembling with anger. Dent didn't know who he hated more - The Joker, or himself for setting him free. He was going to do what he should have done a long time ago.

"Okay Joker, this is my favourite joke!"

 

[Keyser Soze]

OOC: Just a note, I am not writing stuff for Karem-Knight. Me and KK co-wrote this post, with him handling his dialogue and thoughts. The post he will make to follow mine has contributions from both of us as well.

 

[Karem-Knight]

Harvey got out a gun the cold steel never felt so warm and pushing the trigger into the bullet into The Joker’s chest.


“Ouch “said the Joker walking backwards and wobbling the tripping up onto the water Laughing like the monster he was, then falling into the water

“Ah Crap” The Joker said heading there Laughing

“Yeah I find it funny too “Dent said then walking back just turning forward and getting some thing out the coin…

“Why did I need this” Dent said smiling and throwing it into the water
