Realistic or Modern Enhanced

[Neal Caffrey]

On an island just outside of NYC rests a government research facility. The government has been experimenting there for years, trying to create humans with certain qualities enhanced. Some experiments have been successful (enhanced strength, enhanced intelligence, etc), while others have gotten out of hand. Now, a group of test subjects has found a way to escape, and they are free in NYC, but the government wants to track them down.

((We are starting after they have just escaped. The Enhanced are in NYC, temporarily safe. The government workers are at the research facility, making a plan. Anyone can start. I will be posting in a few minutes.))

Nick:


Nick bent over, trying to catch his breath. They were free. Finally free.


The fresh air, if you could call it that, felt amazing on his face. He spread his fingers wide, feeling the breeze blow through them. When was the last time he was outside without an ankle weight? It felt like forever ago.


He looked around at all of the buildings, the cars, the sky, the people... The people were staring at him. He forgot that most people weren't used to seeing their ideal man walking on the streets of New York. He stared down at the sidewalk, hoping that people would stop looking at him.


"We should get out of here, guys," he said quietly. "Too many people around."


Kyle:


Dr. Ventz sat in his chair, reviewing the security video again and again. How could they let this happen? Half of the Enhanced had escaped. They were loose somewhere, most likely the city, where word about them could spread like wildfire. To put it simply, they were in deep shit.


"What do we do now?" he questioned the others. "We can't just let them wander around. If the public finds out about these tests..."


He didn't want to think about it. They could have a full revolution on their hands.

Tullio-


Tullio stayed close to the others, not wanting to get lost by himself in the city. He was scared of the other Enhanced, but he was a lot more scared of the strangers around him. At least he had seen some of the Enhanced before. He grabbed onto one of the girl's shirts, holding on for dear life. He wasn't as fast as the others, and he didn't want to be left behind. Once they stopped, he could feel the stress coming off of everyone else. He couldn't take it anymore, and he broke down, crying into the girl's shirt. (The girl can be any female Enhanced).


Sandra-


Sandra watched as Dr. Vantz reviewed the footage. They had slipped up, big time. "Of course we can't just let them wander. We have to go after them." She sighed loudly. "We should have chipped them. We should have prepared for this. That's what my father would have done." She looked at one of the new researchers and snapped, "Find out what it would take to chip the ones who we still have."


Carter-


Carter couldn't stop grinning. They were free from that shithole. They could live normal lives again. Once they stopped running, he looked around the group. Everyone was huffing and puffing and looking extremely stressed, but all he could feel was joy. He heard one of the guys suggest that they keep moving to get away from the people. He realized that it was Nick, the one that the guards back at the research center called "pretty boy" behind his back. The perfect guy. Carter laughed.


"Why would you want to leave, pretty boy? Can't take everyone staring at you? Enjoy yourself. I know you like the attention," Carter said bitterly. He didn't want to admit that he had stared at Nick on more than one occasion.

Kirstin Harrison

She was surprised by the younger boy who was suddenly at her side clutching her shirt, and when he started to cry she wasn't sure what to do.





"H-hey there," she said hesitantly and not sure what to do. She wasn't good at "people".





"We're out now, okay? They won't get you," she said, trying to sound as comforting as possible," besides, we're in New York now. How exciting is that?"





Now she actually sounded convincingly excited. Before she had come to being Enhanced, she had only visited the city once and had loved it. Now, hopefully, she could live here. She knew it was dangerous with how close the island was, but with her enhancement, she could do it.


She heard others conversing, including the guy most of the scientists called "Pretty Boy" and Carter. She didn't know why, since Nick was suppose to be the "perfect guy", but she'd never found herself attracted to him, at least not after a few years of being used to him. She had her own kind if "beauty" Enhancement after all.





Kelly Fulton

The Enhanced had escaped. It was as simple as that in Kelly's mind as she raced around with all of the other scientists to figure out how. Although, the panic she saw on their faces was not reflected on her own. She was excited to see what happened, how those that got out reacted to normal society.

Tullio-


Tullio took a few deep breaths and looked up at the girl. She was really pretty, and she seemed like a nice person, but Tullio could never be sure. Sandra seemed like a nice person at first. He had learned how wrong that was within a few days of being there.


"Thank you," he said, wiping his tears away. "I'm s-s-sorry." Tullio winced after he stuttered, expecting to be hit by one of the researchers telling him to learn how to speak.


Sandra-


Sandra glanced over at the other researchers. "Well? What are we waiting around for?" she asked. She picked up her clipboard and the keys to one of the government speedboats. "Let's get out of here and find them."

 

[Daniel Atlas Wing]

((Sorry guys! I just got the notification that you had answered!))


Nick-


Nick scowled at Carter, but then looked at the others. One of the younger ones, Tullio, was clinging to Kristin's sleeve. He had always thought that Kristin was beautiful, but he never had the chance to actually speak to her. "What about you guys?" he asked. "You think we should stay?"


He noticed one man staring at him, refusing to look away even when Nick made eye contact. Nick looked away from him, crossing his arms over his chest. He wondered what he looked like to that man, seems as his appearance changed for each person.


"Either way, I need to find something to hide myself better."


Kyle-


"I agree," Dr. Ventz said. "We should go after them and stop them before they say anything to anyone." He grabbed his jacket and his gun. He would only use it if he really had to, but he figured that he would take it just in case they became violent.

She chuckled kindly.





"It's alright, all of us are a bit damaged by that place," she responded to the younger boy, turning to the others who were conversing about what to do now.





"I say we blend in here," she suggested rather loudly, so that the whole crowd could hear," but first some of us need disguises."





She said this as her eyes flicked to Nick for a brief moment then around them to see if there was anywhere they could camp out. She noticed a boarded up store that she assumed had been long closed.





"How about we start with somewhere to stay, if just for now," she said to the group who's attention was at least mostly on her now," that could be a good spot."





She pointed towards the store.





Kelly Fulton

"Hold on, where is everyone going?" Kelly called, jogging after the other fast-walking scientists. She wasn't prepared to just leave on a whim, I mean were a few Enhanced this important?





@Neal Caffrey @Daniel Atlas Wing

Nick:


Nick nodded when she pointed to the boarded up building. "Yeah, let's start with that." He kept his face to the ground as they walked over to the old store. He wondered how long it had been abandoned. He didn't really know if it would be safe to go inside, but at the same time, he really didn't care. He glanced up for a second and saw that the man who had been staring at him was now way too close for comfort. He took a step back, but the man grabbed him by his shirt sleeve.


"Where you going?" he hissed in his ear. Nick could smell alcohol on his breath. "I have plenty of cash I'd be willing to share."


Nick pushed the man off of him, causing other people to start staring.


"We need to get out of here, now," he whispered to the others.


Kyle:


"We're going to get them," Ventz explained to the girl, "I mean, unless you want to lose your job and have an uprising on your hands."


He had been told of the consequences before. If the word got out that they were testing on people-- on children-- there would be no hope for them.

 

[amxlia]

Kirstin Harrison

She watched everyone walk in and noticed Nick being stopped by an obviously drunk man. She walked over, easily changing her hair to a short blonde bob and her eyes a dull brown, as well as adding an aged look to her skin. At least a drunk man wouldn't recognize her.





"Excuse me sir, unhand my son right now," she said smoothly.





@Daniel Atlas Wing

Nick:


Nick watched as Kristin changed her looks, making herself appear older than she was. He couldn't help but grin as she called him her son, but the man refused to back off.


"I'll gladly take the both of ya," he told her, moving closer. Nick snapped.


"Get away from her!" he demanded, pushing the man back. Suddenly, the man swung at him. Nick took the punch. It should have bruised or cut his face, but being the "ideal man," it didn't affect his appearance in the least, but it hurt like hell. Nick swung back, catching the man in the jaw, knocking him clean out.

 

[Neal Caffrey]

Carter-


Carter followed the girl's advice, hiding out in the abandoned building. He leaned against the wall, able to relax for a second, but then he heard the commotion outside. He ran back to the door and looked out. Nick was fighting some drunk, and he knocked him out. Carter smiled. Good for him.


His smile quickly went away when the police showed.


He ducked back inside, grabbing Kristin by the arm and pulling her in with him.


Sandra-


"Ventz is right," she told Kelly. "We need to find them, or else we'll be on the chopping block." She opened the door and motioned for the others to get in the boat to leave the island. "And when we get them back here... Man, are they in for it."

 

[Daniel Atlas Wing]

Nick:


"Shit," Nick cursed when the cops showed. "Shit shit shit..." He turned to go inside, but then decided against it. He didn't want to lead them right to the others. He didn't know how many people were in on the government's plan. He turned back around, looking at each of the cops. Two men, early thirties probably, sick of their jobs...


They didn't wait for an explanation before cuffing him and pulling the drunk man up off of the sidewalk. They didn't give him a chance to explain that he was hit first. They just lead him away. It seemed all too familiar.

 

[amxlia]

Kirstin Harrison

She changed back to her normal appearance as she was dragged inside and watched as the officers cuffed Nick and the other man.





"Carter! What are you doing let go of me!" she said crossly, her skin slowly gaining its youthfulness again," do you want Nick to get caught?"





@Neal Caffrey @Daniel Atlas Wing


(can't post for Kelly right now, I have to go but I will later, just think of this post as a WIP)

 

[Neal Caffrey]

Carter-


He held onto her tightly. "He got himself into this. Shut up! Do you want them to know where we are? We don't know who is on what side."

 

[Alphaius]

-Angelo-


<p><a href="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_05/image.jpg.6fb8b620e2191e2e122f43fed80a76be.jpg" class="ipsAttachLink ipsAttachLink_image"><img data-fileid="128515" src="<fileStore.core_Attachment>/monthly_2016_05/image.jpg.6fb8b620e2191e2e122f43fed80a76be.jpg" class="ipsImage ipsImage_thumbnailed" alt=""></a></p>


Angelo sits on the edge of the boat a lit cigarette dangling out of his mouth. He wears his usual mission attire. A pair of black combat boots,and a set of black BDU's though his top is down hanging from his belt line by where it was tucked in.


As the researchers walked out of the building he hollers at them


"We ready to move out or what, I'm gonna get a tan waiting on you all"


@Daniel Atlas Wing @Smoaki @Neal Caffrey

 

[Neal Caffrey]

Sandra-


Sandra glared at Angelo. "Come on, Agelo. Time to go." She stepped into the boat and started it.


((Sorry for short replies. Busy))

 

[Daniel Atlas Wing]

Nick:


As Nick was dragged away, he tried to think of a plan. How could he get out of this? One of the officers shoved the drunk man into the backseat of a police car and then pulled away. Nick looked around and saw the car that he was supposed to be getting into. Could he break out?


As the officer shoved Nick into the backseat, Nick realized the way that the officer was looking at him. It was the same way the drunk man had been looking at him. He had an idea, even though he didn't like it.


[small time hop. You can imagine how Nick deals with his problems.]


Nick walked back to the abandoned store, rubbing his wrists which were sore from the cuffs. He walked in and saw Kristin and Carter fighting. "Hey," he said sheepishly before sitting down against the wall.


Kyle:


Kyle hopped into the boat and sat down. "They're probably still somewhere near the water," he said. "They couldn't have gotten too far. We'll search within five miles of the water and then branch out. Look for anywhere that they could hide. Ask around and see if anyone has seen them."

 

[Alphaius]

"I can bring em back in pieces right?"


Angelo asks with a smile


"Surely you doctors can patch up a few holes...right." His voice practically drips malice.


Anyone who knows him,would also know he wants these kids dead.


He had a good thing going on here, and those kids were a biiiiig threat to that.


The way he looked at it those kids were as big a threat to him,as an incinerator was to a paper.


After all of the facility got shut down because some kids couldn't keep their damn angst under control... What would become of their hound?


@Daniel Atlas Wing @Smoaki @Neal Caffrey

 

[Daniel Atlas Wing]

Kyle:


"They need to be brought back in one piece," Ventz said sternly. "However, once they're back here, we might be able to let you have a few of the expendable ones." He thought of Nick. He was going to tear that cocky little son of a bitch a new one when they caught him.

 

[Alphaius]

"Fine...just gimme a tough one,none of that one hit and quit bullshit" he smiles as he sits on the bow of the boat rocking with the waves.


His aggression was frankly unnerving he had always been calm but this time he seemed, out for blood.

 

[Daniel Atlas Wing]

Kyle:


"I'll let you go a round with Nick. He's expendable and it doesn't leave marks," Kyle told him. He watched as the shore got closer. Finally, they made it. He stepped out onto dry land and made sure that he still had his gun at his side. The Enhanced could be dangerous...


"We should stick together," Kyle said. "That way, if anything happens, we'll all be there to protect each other and capture the Enhanced."

 

[Neal Caffrey]

Sandra-


Sandra nodded. "Agreed. Keep your eye out for them. They will most likely all be traveling together. Your boy Nick is likely to draw a crowd, too," she said to Kyle. It wasn't every day that people saw their idea of the perfect man walking around. "They could be in disguise, but they haven't had much time, so it can't be too elaborate."


Tullio-


Tullio watched as the others fought. He didn't like it when other people got mad at each other. He could always feel their anger just radiating inside of his chest, creating stress and pain. "Please stop," he whispered quietly, knowing that they wouldn't be able to hear him. He didn't want them to get angry at him too.


Then, Nick came back. Tullio could sense that he was in pain, so he went to his side and sat down. "Let me help," he said softly before touching his wrists. He took the pain away, making it transfer to his own body instead. He could handle it... It hurt him less than knowing others were in pain.

 

[Alphaius]

"Let's hope they're all together..." He say walking off the boat seemingly more relaxed.


He immediately lights another cigarette.


"That way we can knock out all of em in one go. Heh heh I bet I can put em down in five seconds flat." He chuckles a bit as if visualizing.
