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

"How come I have the super-speed, yet you beat me to where the Joker is?"

I turned and saw Clark standing in front of me.

"Years of practice, Clark. Now, if we can scan the place with X-Ray vision and look for both Joker and Johnathon Crane..."

"Years of practice, Clark. Now, if we can scan the place with X-Ray vision and look for both Joker and Johnathon Crane..."

"We? Did Alfred buy you those new X-Ray googles you've been wanting for so long?"Superman jested, elicting a dark scowl from Batman.

"Alfred's dead."

The news hit Clark like a ton of bricks. "Bruce," he stammered, "I- I'm sorry, I didn't mean.."

OOC: I'm not sure where either Joker or Crane is exactly, and I don't want to put them somewhere where they don't want to be. Hope you don't mind the slight bunnying.

 

[rigel7soldiers]

"Nice entrence," I sarcastically reply, still walking and tracking Crane's movements, "keep up and tell me what's going on."

This is the last thing I need, one moment I was...flirting...with Dinah, and then her EX just HAD to show up...

"Two things. First: Lighten up, man. Second: Black Adam has Allied himself with Mordru, the Shade, and Deathstroke the Terminator. Pat Dugan and Jade have already fallen. The big fall. They're coming for us. All of us. I picked these up, though, and they'll be a big help."

I said, showing him the mirror gun and the freeze gun.

"You, Superman, are in great danger yourself, due to your unique weakness to magic. But I've got a plan, and a certain ally. Captain Marvel, Jr. has already been alerted. We just need to contact him..."

 

[DarkKnightJRK]

EDIT.

"So what exactly is your plan? Recruit as many heroes you can get to take them on?"

 

[SuperFerret]

"So what exactly is your plan? Recruit as many heroes you can get to take them on?"

"That sounds like a start, but we'll need a plan to engage them. I'm willing to go and help prepare. Batman, you can handle both the Joker and Crane, correct?"

 

[rigel7soldiers]

"That sounds like a start, but we'll need a plan to engage them. I'm willing to go and help prepare. Batman, you can handle both the Joker and Crane, correct?"

"Well, the initial plan was to alert as many heroes as possible, but that'll do nicely. Aren't you guys scared or anything, though?"

 

[DarkKnightJRK]

"That sounds like a start, but we'll need a plan to engage them. I'm willing to go and help prepare. Batman, you can handle both the Joker and Crane, correct?"

"Yeah, prepare at the Watchtower. I need to keep watch here in Gotham. If you need me, you know how to call."

"Well, the initial plan was to alert as many heroes as possible, but that'll do nicely. Aren't you guys scared or anything, though?"

"There are far more scarier things in this world than some megalomaniacs who claim to be all-powerful but are beaten every time. As long as we plan ahead and keep some ace cards up our sleeves, there should be nothing to be overtly frightened about."

 

[batnkevlar]

*Hal notices a signal and turns to Alan*

"Sorry, Alan, duty calls. Keep this up while I'm gone."

*Hal streaks across the sky and appears next to Batman*

"Batman, what's the problem?"

 

[SuperFerret]

"Hal, I think we have a bigger problem, can we teleport to the Watchtower? All of us but Batman, for now."

 

[Phantasm]

OOC: Bats was flirting with Dinah??!
wow! LOL!!

Anyway, who am I supposed to send as backup? the JLers?

 

[DarkKnightJRK]

"Hal, I think we have a bigger problem, can we teleport to the Watchtower? All of us but Batman, for now."

"No, Hal, I need to you to go to Wayne Pharmacudicals. Look for Dinah there, she has the cure for the virus around Gotham. Just activate the machine and take it across Gotham, it will counter-act the virus and kill it."

 

[batnkevlar]

OOC: Bats was flirting with Dinah? WTF? I'm gonna kick his ass for that one day...

 

[SuperFerret]

"No, Hal, I need to you to go to Wayne Pharmacudicals. Look for Dinah there, she has the cure for the virus around Gotham. Just activate the machine and take it across Gotham, it will counter-act the virus and kill it."

"Ok, then just Mid-nite and I will go and warn the rest." Superman turned towards Mid-nite, "Do you want to split up, with you going to the Watchtower while I try and warn the others in person?"

 

[DarkKnightJRK]

OOC: Bats was flirting with Dinah? WTF? I'm gonna kick his ass for that one day...

OOC: Bat's didn't mean to do it, it just...happened. It's a little plot-point, he's a bit confused about himself at this point. Besides, it's not like you two were actually DATING or anything...

 

[Spike_x1]

OOC: Does Clark know that the Parasite is alive yet?

 

[SuperFerret]

OOC: Nope. Won't he be surprised?

 

[Spike_x1]

OOC: He'd probably be a tad PO'ed too.

 

[Supergirl]

Calm down girl. You need to get a grip, there will be time to cry later. Right now you have more important things to take care of. Bart just seemed to be one of many targets, there may be more heroes in danger now. She picked herself out of the ball she had curled into, and wiped the tears off her face. Her mascara had run down her swollen and bruised cheeks. Her right eye was blackened, and traces of blood were under her nose and on her lower lip. She could still taste the copper in her mouth. The rest of her body ached from her battle with Black Adam.

"Hey, Super-babe, you've seen better days... but I guess all four of us aren't so hot right now eh?"

"Shut the hell up Gar. Bart is dead, and his killers are still out there somewhere, this is no time to crack jokes."

"Whoa, what now? Bart can't be dead, can he? What happened?"

"Well lets piece together what we do know. I got taken out by Black Adam. Why he attacked us I don't know, but the guy packs a wallop."

"And I got beat by Deathstroke."

"I don't know who got me, some codger in a top hat though."

"Bart and I were attacked in my room, simultaneously by Slade and Adam. Adam drew me away from the tower and is the reason for all of my injuries, Deathstroke and this other guy must have killed Bart while Adam fought me. Parasite attacked the both of us, saying something about needing us alive or something. I got back and the villains were disappearing, and I found Bart's costume empty on the floor. He must have merged with the speed force, funny how we talked about that at dinner." Tears started rolling down Kara's cheek again. "No matter, I have to get word to other heroes. I'm going to the watchtower to see if I can find Superman, I'll be back by the morning."

 

[TheCorpulent1]

The Shade bristled when Mordru revealed who their infiltrator had been. "I'll certainly have to take care of this legacy besmircher."- Shade said in a low voice. He gripped the pommel of his cane tightly until his knuckles turned white. He continued whispering- "Charles McNider would never have been caught in such an embarassing manner as this new upstart did. Oh, nononono! This other 'doctor' seems to have gotten his licence from a cereal box. We'll see when we meet again, Dr. Mid-Nite; and meet we shall!"

Black Adam's fist tightened until his knuckles were white. Of course it would be Mid-Nite. It was Mid-Night who drew him away from Khandaq so that his cohorts could turn his own people against him. When he and Mid-Nite crossed paths again, he would be sure to leave said paths covered in the good doctor's entrails. But what he and the others were doing was bigger than Mid-Nite now. He had no time for petty squabbles; this whole thing would fall apart if the Alliance's members began running off for revenge against any heroes who had personally hurt them. Like a cancer, more would always arise to take the place of any heroes they cut out. No, much better to strike at the source and destroy the heroes altogether.

Shade's rambling was interrupted when Mordru called to him and caught the emerald that was flung at him. He looked at the emerald as if admiring a precious stone. "I'm touched by the trust you've put in me, thank you. I must say, this confrontation was more exhilirating than I expected it to be. Apparently the Maid of Steel gave you quite a workout, Adam. Still aprehensive about these so called children?"

"I was never 'apprehensive,'" Black Adam replied, "and the fight with Supergirl was going fine until Parasite showed up." He turned to Mordru. "Speaking of which, we should endeavor to learn more about Parasite's interest in us. He claimed he only wanted to keep Supergirl and me from killing each other, for some reason."

 

[Twitch]

"The damm sun is killing my neck."

I pulled my cloak tighter around my face and kept going. I had used up three days food and it felt like I hadn't made half way yet. My legs were burning from waking high hills of sorching sands.

"Got to get shade."

The sun won the battle and I started seeing mirages. I saw one of my most darkest fears.

"You can't escape me boy, I made you!"

"GET OUT OF MY HEAD!"

I started running further and further until I tripped and I cried

OCC:Hey rigel, I changed my name again

 

[Charlie No-One]

OOC: Oh PLEASE..on all that is good and holy..tell me that isn't what happens in the movie! *cries* NOW I KNOW!

OOC: Sorry..I ment it as a joke...didn't mean to spoil anything..this isn't what happenes in the movie...it is way different.

Crane stepped forward to the Joker; he had a small child in his hand. I have to get the baby first. The Joker was ranting about Jonathan and his actions. Scarecrow quickly tossed a smoke bomb at the madman and rushed over to the baby.




”It ends tonight, Joker. Gotham doesn’t deserve this,” the doctor squawked.



OOC: Can no one see me until the Joker makes his response to this?

 

[Spike_x1]

The Parasite touched down on the roof of the warehouse. He opened a skylight window and floated down to meet Deadshot.

"Both Black Adam and Supergirl are alive. I kept 'em from poundin' each other's brains out, although I can still hear ringing in my ears." Rudy sat in a chair at the center table and put his feet up. "Y'know Lawton, just a thought fer the future, but next time, can ya tell me specifically which one of them ya want me to keep alive?

"Sorry Rudy, but the less you know the better... at least for now anyway." Deadshot stood up and walked out of the room. "Rest up. You're gonna need your strength."

But the Parasite was already asleep and snoring.

 

[Keyser Soze]

The Scarecrow? What was that buffoon doing here!? After being stunned by the smoke grenade, The Joker spotted him running towards him. No, not towards him. Towards...

The Joker took out his gun, pointing it at the head of the baby he was cradling in his arms. he cocked the barrell, ready to pull the trigger.

"Not a step closer, Squarecrow. Take another step towards me and it'll be this kid's brains polluting the water supply."

The Scarecrow faltered.

"Ha ha, I thought so. For all your tough talk and posturing, you're too squeamish to get the job done. Oh, God forbid anything happens to any innocent little children..."

The Joker tauntingly dangled the baby over the edge of the barrier.

"If I were to drop this baby now, it would fall into the reservoir and drown. So you are powerless to do anything to stop me."

The Joker pointed his gun at The Scarecrow.

"And what's to stop me from shooting you right now? HA HA! For all your smart talk, all your books, and all your oh-so precious scientific research, you're just a schmuck in a silly costume, who doesn't have the grapes to carry things through. And to think Batman ever saw you as a threat. You're good, Crane, I'll give you that. But you're no Joker. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

 

[DarkKnightJRK]

I finally found the end to my trail and found out just what was happening: Crane's not helping Joker, he's trying stop him!

I slipped into the shadows, trying to find a good point to attack Joker. When he started to dangle the baby in his arms over the resvoir, I was on a pipe 10 feet above Joker.

"You're good, Crane, but you're no Joker!" The bastard yelled out and started laughing his demented cackle.

It's time to act.

I drop on him and grab the baby before he dropped it. I rolled away from Joker with the baby cradled in my arms.

"Joker." I looked at our surroundings, barely anything changed since we first fought here, so many years ago. "I didn't take you for the nostalgic type."
