Re: RaynnVerse: The Revolution IC
Robert turned his head back and looked at the hologram...
How shocked Robert was when he saw the spitting image of his father, the father of his false memories standing there. And how shocked he was when he realized who he truly was. Take away the glasses, make him stand up straight, rustle his hair a bit... how did he ever not see that the man Taurus had chosen to make to make his father in the dream world was the Centurion itself.
Now that he was in the Sanctum, it all seemed so obvious that Mark Asterion... Mark Leeds... was really just the Centurion with glasses.
"The world needs me here. The tools here... I can make so much, accomplish what... I just need..."
He glances back at the virtual world he constructed and throws it away with a hand. A flash of light reflects off of the Omnitirix as it disappears. Oh, right. He needed to handle that too.
Robert stroked his chin. He needed concentration. He needed purpose. Focus, Asterion. Focus.
Right. Project Childhood's End.
---
Some time ago... the morning after the night of the Understudy...
Robert, haggard and tired after a night of working, slumps onto a chair in his new accommodations. Jake had been kind enough to let him stay the night in Camelot, but the minotaur knew he wanted to up and out come the next day.
There was so much still to do. Who knows how many imaginary things were out and about in the world now, brought to life by the Understudy. Dangerous... but Robert had made a plan for battling exactly that long ago.
Quietly, he unlocks and unclicks a suitcase, revealing a set of files. Files he hadn't touched since he was in high school. Files he started putting together after that night... that night a former friend killed Ashley.
He leafs through the tabs. Cope, Len. Leeds, Clark. Wallace, Jake.
Jill, Magic.

The minotaur pulls up the transferred files into the virtual world, opening and closing them. Planning. Thinking. Designing.

Leeds speaks up again interrupting Robert as he finishes the designs for Project Childhood's End
"Robert your brother and your ex-girlfriend have appeared outside the fortress. Should I allow them to enter?"

When Minerva opens the next gate it opens into the President's temporary office. The president is facing towards the window with his hands held behind himself when Len enters the room with his team. The President at first speaks with a monotone
"You went into a secessionist state, offered leniency, allied a known villain to the U.S. Government, made offers on my behalf . . ."
The room goes silent
"Ended a situation against a major villain with no causalities, property damage or defamation of your team, as well as gaining the U.S. government an ally who can do more for climate change than a hundred Kyoto agreements or Inconvenient truths! All in a few minutes and with the world watching. The press is going to spin this as Green Man immediately reconsidering his position when faced with the New Freedom League. Something he never did with Dire. All in all Sauros . . .
A great first day on the job."
The President turns with a genuinely cordial smile on his face and outstretches it to shake Len's hand
"Good Job Len."

As the King and the Green Lantern burst into the recording studio they see Hope strapped to a chair, bloody, and Arthur swings around towards Jake and Daniel with his bow racked. He grins

Re: RaynnVerse: The Revolution IC

Green Lantern shields Hope with the force bubble. It leaves Jake free to deal with Arthur Strong. Jake nearly radiates rage as he walks through the studio towards the bow-wielding young man. He doesn’t answer Daniel’s words, and he doesn’t make any quips.
Instead, he approaches until he’s within only a few feet from Daniel.
“Drop your weapon.”
He says coldly, putting the power of his voice into effect. The villain wanted to see the power of the King? Jake would show him… Jake would make him feel helpless in his own body.

Len listens to the president's words, and had steeled himself for what could be a long debate about his actions. It looked like that might have been the case, until the president turned around and showed just how he felt. He shook the presidents hand, sharing his smile. "Thank you, Mr. President. I'm just doing what I think is best, and I'm glad you see it the same way. I'm just relieved things worked out the way they did." he says, and releases the president's hand.
"I would like to be kept up to speed on Green Man's situation to make sure everything goes smoothly and there are no misunderstandings. Now if you will excuse me Mr. President, I'll take my leave." he says.
Len then goes to find Night.

It takes Sauros only a few minutes to find Night but as he marches across a room in which Night resides packing her things as Minerva teleports people away Len passes the Emissary injecting herself with a pale blue liquid. The woman still has her hood up even now. She merely nods in Sauros' direction as he passes and Night takes his attention
"Hey Len. I was going to go back to my apartment downtown but . . . I was wondering if maybe you wanted to hangout? I mean the day is still . . . young. Maybe we could catch a movie? I heard Camelot has a movie theater? Or . . . not if you're busy."

Re: RaynnVerse: The Revolution IC
Green Lantern
Hope was yanked out of the building and back outside in short order, where the Green Lantern deposited her on the nearest rooftop. (Putting her on the ground with the potential angry mob that was just told that Hope was really Omega didn't really seem like the best option at this point.)
"Stay down. I'm not sure how good of a shot laughing boy in there is so we probably shouldn't make targets of ourselves." he told Hope as he set down behind one of those large, industrial air conditioning units. "Are you okay? Did he hurt you at all? Do you need me to get an ambulance or something?" he asked. He fully intended to go back and help Jake, but he needed to make sure of Hope's condition first. "Barring that, is there anything you need me to warn Jake about when I head back in there?"

Re: RaynnVerse: The Revolution IC
Ashley Culdis
Entering the Arctic, Ashley realizes that simply putting on a black eskimo-like outfit over her superhero clothing isn't quite enough to keep her warm out here. Yet when she does see the Sanctum, she can only be speechless at the wondering sight of it. "It's... Amazing," she says quietly under her winter clothing as she nears to look for an entrance with Clark.
Unfortunately she just cannot find one. In her frustration she mutters out, "For crying out loud Robert. Is he sulking again?" She begins banging on what she presumes is a wall until Clark speaks up again. She remembers about her family and isn't in need of a reminder. "Damn it Clark I know that!" She brings one of her hands down hard on the wall, probably cracking her hand in the process as she yelps in pain.
Without a way to enter, Ashley had to access the Sanctum's computers somehow. She sees about entering it's database from where she is. She needs to know everything she can on The Supreme and where her family's current whereabouts are.

Re: RaynnVerse: The Revolution IC
Jake Wallace
Earplugs. Smart. But this was not a situation that Jake hadn’t thought about before. Normally, this is where Jake would either make some movie-related quips at the bad guy, or give a rousing speech to him, or do any number of other tricky things using his voice powers. But since Arthur Strong can’t hear anything he’s saying, he doesn’t bother with much… well, except for this – for the benefit of the audience at home.
“You took an innocent girl, my girlfriend… and my soon to be wife… kidnapped her from my home, in my country, and you tortured her on worldwide television. You aren’t just walking away from this. You’re going to rot in prison.”
He waited until Green Lantern had taken Hope out of there, and then Jake proceeded to show why getting rid of your sense of hearing isn’t always a smart thing.
Jake unsheathed Excalibur with a flash that was designed to blind only Strong… although it won’t happen. And he quickly opens a portal, snapping right through and closing it behind himself, not giving Strong the chance to see what’s on the other side.
At that same instant, a portal opens directly behind Strong, who can’t hear anything going on… there’s a reason we have sight and hearing.
“Let’s see if you hear this. Fuuuusssss ----
RO DAH!”
The last syllable sends a shockwave tearing through the studio, directly into Arthur Strong’s back, trying to launch him into the far wall.

Len Cope
Len returned Emissary's nod as he walked down the hallway. I wonder just what that liquid is... he thinks idly before finding Night.
"Funny thing, that was just what I was going to ask you! Camelot does indeed have a pretty boss movie theater, anything in particular you want to see?" he asks, smiling all the wider. This day is awesome.

Re: RaynnVerse: The Revolution IC
Anna Asterion is more than happy to teleport Night and Len directly to Camelot and it doesn't take Len long to find the movie theatre. A smile stretches across his face when he sees it still clearly open despite the damage done to Camelot by the New Crime Syndicate's attack.
He checked the schedule as Night fiddled with her day walker amulet. The Independents had just come out. He'd loved anything from KP Comics as a kid but now that he was a super hero himself . . .
He thought of what it would be like watching a movie about a super hero team while being in charge of what might be the world's current foremost super hero team . . . It would be nice to see heroes that were as clear cut as he remembered, Canada Man, High Lord and Stonewall fighting side by side for justice and Independence City.
Len smiled, he could do with a more hopeful outlook for once.
As Len grabs the tickets Night glances at the people entering the theater
"We should get to our seats soon. You really don't want to get recognized before we get into a dark room."

As Ashley tries to access the electrical signals within the crystal circuits of the Sanctum Robert floats within the holo-space willfully ignorant of the intrusion, busy with his work.
Suddenly he stops as he sees Ashley appear in front of him. He glances at the virtual Mark Leeds
"She's accessing the system using her unique grasp of the manipulation of electrical signals. I merely chose to contextualize her intrusion in a virtual form that would both draw your attention and allow her to communicate with you.
She hasn't attempt any overt intrusion so she lacks any control over our systems so this virtual reality will appear to her as you please and she cannot change it, but she can view it and respond.
Your brother is with her, but he sadly cannot access the system remotely as she can."
Ashley sees Robert tinkering with hundreds of virtual tools and data inputs as a virtual Mark Leeds floats nearby.

Re: RaynnVerse: The Revolution IC
Ashley Culdis
Appearing in what she thinks is virtual reality, Ashley took a quick look for scrambling data before she notices Robert and, much to her disbelief, Mark Leeds. Her mouth is open as she flinches in shock for a moment. The only other time she had seen the original Centurion in actual life was a vampire tyrant from another dimension. She slowly lets out a ghostly response to seeing the appearence of the virtual being. "Oh... my..." She then looks to Robert, previously doing tinkering with numerous components she'd need more time to analyze. Now however is not the time to work with components for most reasons during these dire times.
"Robert, are you there?" She didn't find the right tone to be sarcastic now. Between her family being held hostage and Freedom City gone to hell, she wouldn't be able to relax for a long time. "Can you give me and Clark access inside please? We have information from Taurus we need to investigate." She pauses, hoping he'll actually listen to her. With a pause, she mentions one more, dire thing to Robert. "Anna... I think Anna has been captured."

Re: RaynnVerse: The Revolution IC
Back in Business, Amigo
Diego smirks. After all the big, dramatic, epic confrontations he's been forced into of late, it feels good to just stop some criminals from stealing a few wads of cash. Honestly, Diego never felt he was up for saving the city, let alone the world, so just saving some pieces of green paper is reassuring.
"Right, Amigos," He crosses his arms, floating in the middle of the room. "We all know how this is going to go, si? I'm El Peregrino, comprende? The guy that fought Godzilla to a standstill? Honestly I dunno how you think you guys can still pull this stuff..."
He waves a hand. "But that's a discussion for another time, criminales. Just-just put the guns down and we'll wait for the police all chill like. He shrugs. "Or don't, I've been itching for some dudes to punch. I've had a long month."

The thieves actually seem to be considering surrendering.
Diego has suddenly become a rising star due to his part in fighting Godzilla during the Catastrophe, seemingly his reputation proceeds him.
Then . . .

A figure tumbles through the shattered security glass of the entrance with a cry. The individual, about Diego's size, is collecting himself on the ground as the criminals begin to freak out, thinking Diego is not alone.
The Peregrine glances at the new arrival. A teenager with no mask and a white one piece super suit. Diego can't get a good luck at his face, as he tries to keep an eye on the attackers. He sees a golden capital H in a golden circle on the boy's chest as the boy collects himself.
He finally sees his face.
Harold, with no mask, in a super suit.

When the building literally shook, Danny knew that it was time to get back into the fight. "Stay here! I'll be back for you." he told Hope, pointing down at the roof. Then, emerald aura flashing with power as he mentally shoved a good portion of his power ring's energy into the flight function, he went darting back toward the battlefield.

The Independents. The Canada Man, Stonewall and High Lord movies led up to this and would it pay off . . . ?
Oh yes it did.
Then the second act arrives and new heroes join the trio as the plot races forward . . .
Wait . . . is that Minerva? Anna Asterion, teleported Len to the Theatre Anna Asterion . . . in a movie about fictional comic book heroes.
Aside from his friend being in a film he had waited years for Len enjoyed the film with pause and snuggled up Night as they watched.
The credits rolled with Len left with a grin on his face.
He waited, KP Comics movies always had a stinger after the credits . . .
Anna, alone in her apartment, suddenly a figure with a golden mask stands in the doorway. She turns terrified. Len clutches his chair apprehensively, no longer able to ignore the strangeness of the situation.
"Don't Be Afraid Anna. You're Finally Getting To Go Home."
Anna touches her alien gun tattoo on her forearm and her arm is encased in the same fully automatic alien Gatling gun. She angles it towards the figure as she shuffles away scared.
"Who The HELL Are You And What Are You Doing In My Apartment!?"
The figure's voice suddenly hints at amusement
"I Am The Supreme Anna, And You're Going To Help Me Change The World."
Fade to black.
A few half-confused voices try to place where the Supreme originates in the KP comics universe, many of the nerdier elements of the audience refusing to admit they don't get the reference or recognize the villain.
"Oh yeah . . . he was like a Silver age Stonewall villain right? . . . No no he was from the nineties, High Lord used to fight him . . . no he's Thano. . ."
Len tightens his grip on the chair.
