EV#68 - "A Stargirl is Born"

Post by GM Mad »

Interlude:

Somewhere beyond time and space, a game is in progress. While it is only a game to them, to those involved it is the Reality War. A battle for the domination of time, space, and dimension itself!

The Black Robed Tesseract has made several moves thus far. Her agents have overthrown the mighty Tyrannon himself and are using his essence to form a Thanatic Rod, a device capable of destroying an entire dimension! Still others have appeared on Earth AC532D in a place run by a corporation called Infinity Exports.

Strangely enough, the White Robed Tesseract has yet to make a move.

"This particular point in time and space is of great interest to us," the black Tesseract noted. "It is the base of your efforts there, as well they should be. The barriers between different times and different dimensions are weak there. But you already know this; otherwise it would be of no interest to us. This Morjok had the right idea; he just didn't have the power or the imagination to pull it off on the scale that I want. Let's make this really interesting."

And somewhere else in space-time, the agents of the Dark Tesseract put her plan into action.


Eternal Vigilance #68 - "A Stargirl is Born"

Roll Call: Tilt-A-Whirl


Deep within the confines of Infinity Exports, Tilt-A-Whirl has discovered their secret! On the surface they seem like a typical import/export business, but in reality they transport goods between different dimensions! Huge electrical coils are ripping holes in between realities, allowing passage between dimensions.

As Tilt watches, a tractor-trailer emerges from a rift and drives off deeper into the complex. Then the speedster notices a vaguely familiar woman clad in a light blue outfit with dark green accents. A swarm of sparkles surrounds her.
"oohsparkly!" Tilt exclaims, distracted again. She looks for a way to get up there. If she has too, she will simply run up the wall! If she can get into that room, she will wave and smile at the familiar woman.
Taking the direct approach, Tilt runs up the wall to reach the observation areas. Finding one of the windows broken, Tilt-A-Whirl rushes inside. The sparkling woman doesn't do anything as Tilt approaches.

"I imagine that you're curious as to what is going to happen next," the sparkling woman states. "Just keep watching."


Back down near the portal and the coils, a trio of costumed figures appears. The strangest of the bunch is a woman surrounded by arcs of electricity. She looks vaguely familiar, but has numerous bits of metal embedded in her skin. Electricity arcs between these pieces of metal. With a gesture, she reaches out and gathers in the electricity in the coils and drinks it in.

The other two are a blond haired woman in a teal and blue bodysuit. Standing close to her was a man coated in ice. These two are acting as guards.

The electrical woman unleashes the power she gained from the coils, amplifying it and twisting it to dire ends. A second rift appears in the vast chamber and then a third, quickly followed by a forth. Six tears in reality, nine holes, and then finally eleven dimensional rips in all. Then the rifts explode outwards from the chamber, with reality changing and overlapping in their wake.

Not too far away from the trio of superpowered beings, Lavender appears and is in awe of what she sees.

"This is not good," the black haired woman in skintight lavender utters.

The woman in blue and teal spots the new arrival and fires a blast of yellowish energy in that direction. Lavender vanishes once more.


"There, it is done," the sparkly woman announces to Tilt very pleased with herself. "There are now a grand total of twelve dimensions overlapping! And you've got a front row seat for it all! This should be fun to watch!"

Roll Call: Flux, Menagerie, Tesla, Covenant, Eldrich, Frostbite, Gargoyle, Xanaphia, Powershift, & Sea Guard

The Vigilant and their allies now found themselves back in Horton's Plaza. With the defeat of Morjok, the Twilight Realms incursion into this dimension has been thwarted. With that magical realm gone, those who were supercharged by the magical energies are now back to normal and those who has been strangely transformed by those energies have been restored. Tesla now has arcs of electricity playing about her, not plasma. Frostbite is no longer on fire and Gargoyle is his large, hideous self again.

Flux settled the issue by growing from tiny to titan sized while underneath Morjok. The collision shattered the mages personal shields and caused him to drop the Jewel of Krin, the source of Powershift’s powers. Sea Guard restores the gem to its proper place, while Morjok lies unconscious at Flux’s feet. The leader of the Vigilant calls out more orders.
"Vigilant! Secure the area! Sea Guard, Frostbite, back up the Phlox. Tesla, take that black robed joker. Menagerie you and me on the others with him."
But before anyone can react, something very strange happens. Horton’s Plaza changes once more before your very eyes! It suddenly goes from a pristine state to one of almost being in ruins. There is no electrical lights overhead to provide illumination, just what little light filters in from the night sky coupled with the illumination provided by Tesla, Goldstar/Menagerie, and the Purple Phlox. Vines and creepers have engulfed nearly everything. It doesn’t appear that the area has seen use in decades.

This sudden change, coupled with his reversion to his normal self causes Gargoyle to pause. Seizing that moment, Black Paladin teleports away, vanishing from Gargoyle’s grasp. Lady Bale rises into the air and flies up to where the White Witch and the Magus are located. Frostbite sends a blast of ice chasing after Lady Bale, but it falls short of the target. Sea Guard reaches the side of the Purple Phlox and helps her back to her feet.


Overhead, Eldrich senses not one, but two new and very large sources of magic in the area! These are much too large to be an individual or an item. It is very disorientating to him, as if there are multiple magical dimensions being thrust upon this one.

Tesla regards the Magus, as the Black Paladin appears among them and Lady Bale flies closer.
"Gladly," Tesla says, then turns her attention to her target, "Easy or hard, you're still coming with us."
“I think not,” the Magus answers.

Tesla fires a blast of electrical energy at the Magus, but a powerful magical shield keeps it at bay. The electricity arcs about the shield and both quickly fade away.

“The last of my stolen energy is spent,” the Magus tells his companions. “The day is lost. We must withdraw.”

“Agreed,” the Black Paladin answers.

The dark knight teleports once more, taking Lady Bale, the White Witch, and the Magus with him. Eldrich is left behind while Menagerie in the form of Goldstar fires a photon blast that chases the villains away. Both Tesla, Flux, and Menagerie regard Eldrich.


Back down on the ground, the Purple Phlox regains her wits and senses that something is amiss.

“This isn’t right! This isn’t our world!”

Those on the ground will hear noises, the sounds of beings shuffling closer. A mournful wail is heard and what appears to be normal humans come lumbering into view. Normal looking that is until you get really good look at them. Their clothes are torn, dirty and ragged. These humans have glazed over eyes and expressions that are twisted in pain. But what is even worse is that yellowish-white spikes are thrusting out through their skin. These spikes cover the body and the face of these beings.

There are a few at first, but their numbers quickly grow to nearly a dozen. With their arms outstretched, these zombie-like creatures shuffle onward looking for new victims!

Roll Call: Blackout, Fenris, and Lavender

Elsewhere in San Diego, Blackout has just met Fenris. The mysterious stranger teleports about and makes threats to Blackout. Blackout responds, but before Fenris can answer, reality shifts about them. The buildings in the area go from their normal state to one of dilapidation. An unusual number of spider webs fill the area, as if the spiders here are so large that they spin their webs between the buildings!

But that’s not all that Blackout can sense. He hears noises from large things in the sewers moving about. There is a strange buzzing sound in the background.

And then Lavender appears close by once more.

“We’ve got big problems,” she tells Blackout. “You and your friends need to fix this mess!”

“You’re not going anywhere,” a new voice calls out and Blackout sense two more people have just appeared. But these ones seem familiar, but yet different at the same time.


Roll Call: Backlash & Stargirl

At the Starr Building, Backlash is trying to reach his teammates when Edgar sounds an alarm.

“Warning! I’m detecting multiple dimensional rifts opening up! They are expanding and engulfing the area! Point of origin is the Infinity Exports complex twenty miles off shore!”

Reality shifts all about downtown San Diego and what was once pristine falls into ruin. Except for the Starr Building. The building and everything inside of it remains the same.

A sound of a woman crying out in pain causes Backlash to move into action. Racing back to where he left Dr. Williams and Gloria Starr, he finds that Gloria has been transformed. Her clothing has changed into a one-piece body suit that is most in dark read with golden arms and shoulders, a golden band across her waist, and golden calf high boots. A dark red mask covers her eyes. Her hands glow with energy.

“What is happening to me?” Gloria cries out.

“Intruder alert!” Edgar calls out before anyone can answer Gloria. “Two entities of extra-dimensional origin have entered the building.”

Edgar’s monitors shift and one shows a field of darkness moving down the hallway, while a second shows what appears to be Goldstar, but her costume is completely different in color. Both beings are closing in on the medical area!


Now what?

Stargirl:

Gloria is resting in the Clinic run by Dr. Williams while waiting for Frosty to return. There’s not much to do, so Gloria thumbs through a magazine. Then Edgar sounds an alarm.
“Warning! I’m detecting multiple dimensional rifts opening up! They are expanding and engulfing the area! Point of origin is the Infinity Exports complex twenty miles off shore!”
“What does that mean?”

Gloria starts to say when something strange happens to her. A glow comes overhear and her attire suddenly changes into some kind of superhero costume! It’s mostly dark red in color with golden boots, belt, arms and shoulders. Gloria’s hands glow with energy.

“What is happening to me?” Gloria cries out. “What is the meaning of this? Can you explain this?”

Gloria looks pleadingly towards Dr. Williams and Backlash.

Post by Stargirl »

Stargirl:

The invasion has begun! Stargirl appears in the core of the Infinity Exports with two others. The electrical woman begins to draw in the power to both enlarge and increase the number of dimensional rifts that are open. Soon eleven more are opened and they quickly grow to cover the area.

“Stay on guard, Frosty!” Stargirl tells her boyfriend. “No one can interfere with the plan!”

Suddenly a hussy in skin-tight lavender appears out of nowhere!

“Get out of here!” Stargirl calls out, sending a Photon Blast towards her.

The woman then vanishes yet again. All seems to be going according to plan.

“So far, so good,” Stargirl mutters. She does keep an eye on the girl near Darkstar up in the observation both. She might be trouble.


Stargirl is a pretty blond teenage girl with shoulder length hair. She wears a one-piece body suit that is mostly in teal with blue arms and shoulders, a blue belt and matching calf-high boots. A teal colored mask conceals her identity.

Lavender

Post by lavender »

Lavender:

Something bad is going on inside Infinity Exports. Lavender’s controller is currently unconscious, thus she’s free to act as she sees fit. At least for now.

Lavender senses that something is wrong and given her natural curiosity just has to go check it out. The Portal Room is just a short shift away. But all is not right there.
Not too far away from the trio of superpowered beings, Lavender appears and is in awe of what she sees.

"This is not good," the black haired woman in skintight lavender utters.

“Get out of here!” Stargirl calls out, sending a Photon Blast towards her.

The woman in blue and teal spots the new arrival and fires a blast of yellowish energy in that direction. Lavender vanishes once more.
“I get the message!” Lavender calls out as she shifts away once more. This time she teleports back to where she came from in San Diego. The area is deserted, but she senses something amiss on a nearby rooftop. Shifting yet again, Lavender finds the luscious Blackout there with another stranger.
And then Lavender appears close by once more.

“We’ve got big problems,” she tells Blackout. “You and your friends need to fix this mess!”

“You’re not going anywhere,” a new voice calls out and Blackout sense two more people have just appeared. But these ones seem familiar, but yet different at the same time.
“Hey!” Lavender objects. “None of you belong in this dimension! Go home!”

To Blackout she adds, “I’m a lover, not a fighter. Let me get you out of here! Entire other dimensions are overlapping this one! We have to put this right somehow!”


Lavender is of a young woman of average height who is full figured with very nice curves. Her hair is black and falls below her waist. She prefers to dress in skintight lavender colored clothing. She wears white ankle boots with high heels.

Eldrich Arcane

Well. It seems the others do not regard me as truly one of their own. I would feel slighted--if I were not of a like mind.

Eldrich takes the measure of those looking at him, knowing that he remembered them scant moments ago. They do not appear to know him, however, and that makes things awkward.

The sudden influx of new magic so soon after the shift away from the Twilight Realm causes Eldrich's Third Eye to open fully. Not one, but two sources of magic impinge upon his sense!

The Purple Phlox also calls out in alarm, giving warning of a different nature.
Back down on the ground, the Purple Phlox regains her wits and senses that something is amiss.

“This isn’t right! This isn’t our world!”
"There is a magical infringement occuring some distance away from here as well. I suggest we suspend potential hostilities between ourselves for now. In spite of appearances I am not your enemy."

Eldrich notes the incoming people on the ground floor.

"And you may have need of me quite soon!"

Not According To Plan

Post by Bruce »

Flux

Victory one second-confusion the next. It almost seems like the 'Nam experience all over again.

Flux is too slow to interfere with the escaping villians. Teleportation is a tough one to cut off with a roadblock! The building changing , light loss effect doesn't help.

Both the odd man left behind by the Dark Masters and the Purple Phlox give their warnings at nearly the same time. Flux makes an instant decision.

"Right. You're with us--until I see something I don't like. Then the Phlox will give you the same as Lady Bale got. You can explain things as we go."

Flux evaluates the incoming lot of, (Refugees? Zombies?) people.

"Everyone! We are heading back to the Starr Building! Gather up if you need a lift. Stay together."

Flux drops his extra mass but retains his size, preparing to pick up any that need transport.

*Edgar. Are you receiving? We have a new crisis and are inbound to the Starr building. Notify all members if possible.*

Menagerie:

As she attempts to corral the strange metahumans, the world seems to flicker and change. Horton Plaza suddenly looks like a ruin hundreds or thousands of years old!

Disturbed by the transformation, GoldLily is caught off-guard when Black Paladin teleports her targets away. She fires a Photon Blast, but is too late.

However, the male that had looked marginally familiar is left behind. "Have we met before?" she asks, her tone curious.

Just then, Phlox calls out a warning, echoed by the male near her. A magical effect; not surprising, considering their just-completed encounter with Morjok. Even worse, people begin to appear in the plaza, their numbers growing quickly. From their movements and appearance, Lily can only assume that there's something wrong with them.
Flux wrote:Everyone! We are heading back to the Starr Building! Gather up if you need a lift. Stay together."
Looking back at the stranger, Menagerie says, "Need a lift?" as she floats in the air near him.

Dark Menagerie:

Not surprisingly, she and her partner, BlackOut, made it to the Starr Building without trouble. Their target is StarGirl's doppleganger, but they're free to do what they want with anyone else they encounter. The mere thought of what she might do brings a small, sinister smile to her appropriated face.

Of course, she had chosen DarkStar's form for this. It is arguably the most powerful in her repertoire. Besides, the thought of cutting down the brat with what are essentially her own powers amuses Lilian. While it is true that that prima dona DarkStar doesn't like Lilian using her form, well... she's not here to do anything about it.

DarkLilian continues to float quietly through the hallways, drawing ever closer to the medical center and their target. If she's quiet enough, perhaps she can surprise that upstart brat with a full power Radiation Blast.

What a delightful surprise that would be...

Eldrich Arcane

Eldrich does not know how to answer the question of 'have we met before?' All he can remember is that he had remembered them in the Twilight Realm fully and completely. Why they seem to have forgotten him is a mystery.

As for being 'lifted' that is easier to reply to.

"If you are going anywhere from here I will need guidance and perhaps information too. My companions before you were most untruthful and most unbalanced as well. As you have no doubt guessed, I am a stranger here."

GoldLily nods. "Then riding along might be best, until you learn your way around. By the way, my name is Menagerie." She drifts down next to the strange man so that her shoulder is next to his. "Place your arm across my shoulders, and I'll put my arm around your waist. That should allow me to carry you comfortably."

If Eldrich does as directed, Lily will rise into the air with him and join the others in flying back to the Starr Building.

FENRIS:

Having been phased very little from the current events, Fenris takes a moment to observe the surroundings and smiles. "This is will make for some fun." Recounting the direction that Blackout had gone, Fenris pauses for a moment and prepares to try to engage his new 'friend'. (prepared teleportation)

Tilt-A-Whirl:

Taking the direct approach, Tilt runs up the wall to reach the observation areas. Finding one of the windows broken, Tilt-A-Whirl rushes inside. The sparkling woman doesn't do anything as Tilt approaches.

"I imagine that you're curious as to what is going to happen next," the sparkling woman states. "Just keep watching."


Tilt watches, being curious to what might happen next. What she sees isn't what she expects! Some super-powered people appear and start messing with things. It's all pretty much over Tilt's head, but the display of electricity is captivating.

"There, it is done," the sparkly woman announces to Tilt very pleased with herself. "There are now a grand total of twelve dimensions overlapping! And you've got a front row seat for it all! This should be fun to watch!"

"thisisaprettycoolmovie!" Tilt says excitedly, "butwherearealltheotherpeople? ibetalotofpeoplewouldlovetoseethis!"

Twisterella:

“You’re not going anywhere,” a new voice calls out and Blackout sense two more people have just appeared. But these ones seem familiar, but yet different at the same time.

Twisterella smiles, and its not the smile of an innocent teenage girl. The look is truly wicked. It seems as though there is hate in her eyes even though she's never known the people she sees in front of her. She knows what she must do, and there is no time to waste. She's very impatient and hates to wait.

"timetoturnthingsup!" she says and starts spinning. Really, really fast. She starts moving towards Blackout and Lavender, spinning like a top. A really hyper top. Once she gets close enough, she will throw out her small spikes. That ought to get their attention!

_______________________________________________________

Twisterella is a young teenage girl that looks innocent until she smiles. Her big eyes turn cold and cruel at the drop of a hat. She wears cut off tattered jeans and worn boots a tight top with a vest. Her short hair is spiked up in every angle and has three or more colors (red, black, purple usually). Her pockets are stuffed will all sorts of small things.

GM Notes:

I forgot to mention in the earlier post, that Edgar’s warnings in the Backlash/Stargirl section were transmitted to all members of the Vigilant, at least those who were part of the new version of the team and those with a comlink. So Flux, Menagerie, Tesla, Sea Guard, and Powershift heard this message from Edgar.
"Warning! I'm detecting multiple dimensional rifts opening up! They are expanding and engulfing the area! Point of origin is the Infinity Exports complex twenty miles off shore!"
Quickly followed by:
"Intruder alert!" Edgar calls out before anyone can answer Gloria. "Two entities of extra-dimensional origin have entered the building."
Flux contacts Edgar and gets an immediate response. Strangely enough, it sounds more like the old Edgar then the AI Edgar that had been serving the Vigilant.
Flux wrote:*Edgar. Are you receiving? We have a new crisis and are inbound to the Starr building. Notify all members if possible.*
“I am receiving, Master Flux. Eleven other dimensions are overlapping this one. They are randomly fluxuating in size and location. Their source is the Infinity Exports platform twenty miles out to sea. The Starr Building, along with The Vigilant Sea Base are dimensional fixed locations. They cannot be altered by these dimensional shifts. Backlash is currently here with Dr. Williams and Stargirl.”


Oh, and the Crucible Gallery was updated sometimes back with pics for both Stargirls.

Backlash
A sound of a woman crying out in pain causes Backlash to move into action. Racing back to where he left Dr. Williams and Gloria Starr, he finds that Gloria has been transformed. Her clothing has changed into a one-piece body suit that is most in dark read with golden arms and shoulders, a golden band across her waist, and golden calf high boots. A dark red mask covers her eyes. Her hands glow with energy.

“What is happening to me?” Gloria cries out.
Racing through the Starr Building, Lash runs into the room and takes in the sight of Gloria changing. His eyes transfix upon her as her appearance rapidly changes and her hands begin to glow!

“Puberty?” he asks in relative shock as he just gazes on her new form.
“Intruder alert!” Edgar calls out before anyone can answer Gloria. “Two entities of extra-dimensional origin have entered the building.”
“Oh wonderful! Now what?”

Edgar’s monitors shift and one shows a field of darkness moving down the hallway, while a second shows what appears to be Goldstar, but her costume is completely different in color. Both beings are closing in on the medical area!

“Well they sure ain’t the girl scouts or the Avon Lady! Edgar, Lock down the area around them if able. Its time to show our guests, our welcoming committee,” tighting his gloves on his hands.

Backlash will move toward at full density, “You came at a good time, I was just getting bored. Come and take your best shot!”

Evil Backlash

“Awe look, A masked man and his hired hag!” he says with a sneer as his eyes twinkle with amusement.

“Hey!” Lavender objects. “None of you belong in this dimension! Go home!”

To Blackout she adds, “I’m a lover, not a fighter. Let me get you out of here! Entire other dimensions are overlapping this one! We have to put this right somehow!”

“But, we like it here. You have much better cookies then at home."

"Not much of a lover from what I heard. More like a bimbo tease. Why did she have to open her mouth and talk, she was so much prettier then... Going full density Lash will attempt a move through on Lavender. “Where ya going, we’re just about to have some fun.”

Moving towards Flux’s hands, Frosty will step onto them once it appears everyone is on who is getting on, “I’ll give ya some cover.” Not aware what these things are capable of Frosty will bring up a white out, Centered on where we were standing moments before.

“Stay on guard, Frosty!” Stargirl tells her boyfriend. “No one can interfere with the plan!”

“Already on it love. Plan? What plan,we have a plan?” he says with and icy smirk his dark eyes looking about for someone to hit. Seeing the girl near Darkstar, Frosty eyes her curiously then she speaks

"thisisaprettycoolmovie!" Tilt says excitedly, "butwherearealltheotherpeople? ibetalotofpeoplewouldlovetoseethis!"

“Couldn’t make it.” He says shortly as he begins gesturing at the doors, sealing them with ice. “Looks like you get a front row seat!”

Blackout responds, but before Fenris can answer, reality shifts about them. The buildings in the area go from their normal state to one of dilapidation.

There is almost too much for Blackout to concentrate on. Reality shifts, giant spider webs, unknown noises coming up from below. This is definitely not Kansas anymore...
And then Lavender appears close by once more.

“We’ve got big problems,” she tells Blackout. “You and your friends need to fix this mess!”

“You’re not going anywhere,” a new voice calls out and Blackout sense two more people have just appeared. But these ones seem familiar, but yet different at the same time.
"I sure hope it wasn't your friends that started this mess," Blackout says flatly. Before he can say more though, there are some new players in the game.
“Hey!” Lavender objects. “None of you belong in this dimension! Go home!”

To Blackout she adds, “I’m a lover, not a fighter. Let me get you out of here! Entire other dimensions are overlapping this one! We have to put this right somehow!”

“But, we like it here. You have much better cookies then at home."
"I agree that we need to put this right," Blackout says to Lavender, "but there is no way we can let these individuals run rampant throughout the city until we figure it out. Stay with me or get yourself clear, either way I need to handle this."
"timetoturnthingsup!" she says and starts spinning. Really, really fast. She starts moving towards Blackout and Lavender, spinning like a top. A really hyper top. Once she gets close enough, she will throw out her small spikes. That ought to get their attention!

"Not much of a lover from what I heard. More like a bimbo tease. Why did she have to open her mouth and talk, she was so much prettier then... Going full density Lash will attempt a move through on Lavender. “Where ya going, we’re just about to have some fun.”
"Not really nice to talk about a lady like that," Blackout says to the male antagonist, fully aware of the girl who's spinning like a psychotic top closing in. He needs to buy Lavendar a few seconds to escape, so he pulls his rod and throws it at the man who is getting ready to charge her.

BlackOut:
DarkLilian continues to float quietly through the hallways, drawing ever closer to the medical center and their target. If she's quiet enough, perhaps she can surprise that upstart brat with a full power Radiation Blast.
"Hardly worth the trouble," BlackOut hisses, "but maybe there will be some souls we can harvest." Drifting along, his whole body oozes darkness, hardly seeming like there is anything substantial to it at all. It made slipping inside so easy, and grabbing that vile, heroic StarGirl should be cake, especially if she hasn't come into her powers yet. It seems though that there are some heroic bodyguards to deal with first.
Backlash will move toward them and await their arrival, “You came at a good time, I was just getting bored. Come and take your best shot!”
"I would hate for this to have been too easy," he says to Dark Menagerie, his voice little more than a hoarse whisper. "Looks like we will feast after all."

BlackOut's eyes flash red and vampric fangs gleam through the darkness. It's about the only thing Backlash can see of him. BlackOut will send out his tendrils of darkness to ensnare the heroic interloper.


(ooc:
Not surprisingly, she and her partner, BlackOut, made it to the Starr Building without trouble.
not sure if you meant to type BlackOut like that, but it works! :twisted: )

Tesla:

“I think not,” the Magus answers.

Tesla fires a blast of electrical energy at the Magus, but a powerful magical shield keeps it at bay. The electricity arcs about the shield and both quickly fade away.

“The last of my stolen energy is spent,” the Magus tells his companions. “The day is lost. We must withdraw.”


"Actually, I think so," Tesla says overconfidently. He's right where she wants him and with no more power. One more electrical blast, or maybe a cage, and he's done for.

The dark knight teleports once more, taking Lady Bale, the White Witch, and the Magus with him. Eldrich is left behind while Menagerie in the form of Goldstar fires a photon blast that chases the villains away. Both Tesla, Flux, and Menagerie regard Eldrich.

"Hey!" she calls out, but they're gone. That just leaves one behind. However, Eldrich seems confused, maybe under a spell or other effects. Their conversation is cut a bit short though by, well, Tesla isn't exactly sure what.

Those on the ground will hear noises, the sounds of beings shuffling closer. A mournful wail is heard and what appears to be normal humans come lumbering into view. Normal looking that is until you get really good look at them. Their clothes are torn, dirty and ragged. These humans have glazed over eyes and expressions that are twisted in pain. But what is even worse is that yellowish-white spikes are thrusting out through their skin. These spikes cover the body and the face of these beings.

There are a few at first, but their numbers quickly grow to nearly a dozen. With their arms outstretched, these zombie-like creatures shuffle onward looking for new victims!

"Everyone! We are heading back to the Starr Building! Gather up if you need a lift. Stay together."

*Edgar. Are you receiving? We have a new crisis and are inbound to the Starr building. Notify all members if possible.*

“I am receiving, Master Flux. Eleven other dimensions are overlapping this one. They are randomly fluxuating in size and location. Their source is the Infinity Exports platform twenty miles out to sea. The Starr Building, along with The Vigilant Sea Base are dimensional fixed locations. They cannot be altered by these dimensional shifts. Backlash is currently here with Dr. Williams and Stargirl.”


"Eleven? Seriously, hasn't anyone heard of overdoing it?" Tesla says as she remains airborne. Infinity Exports sounds like the place to be, but Flux wants us to head back to the Starr building. It sounds like there's a bit of trouble there anyway. She will fly point to make sure the way is clear as they return. Who knows what else they might run into...

Sinister Tesla:

Back down near the portal and the coils, a trio of costumed figures appears. The strangest of the bunch is a woman surrounded by arcs of electricity. She looks vaguely familiar, but has numerous bits of metal embedded in her skin. Electricity arcs between these pieces of metal. With a gesture, she reaches out and gathers in the electricity in the coils and drinks it in.

Tesla purrs as she drinks in the electricity. Every piece of metal and wire that sticks out of her is glowing with the charge. "Mmmmm," she says as if under the effects of an aphrodisiac, "that is quite delicious. I'm ready now"

The electrical woman unleashes the power she gained from the coils, amplifying it and twisting it to dire ends. A second rift appears in the vast chamber and then a third, quickly followed by a forth. Six tears in reality, nine holes, and then finally eleven dimensional rips in all. Then the rifts explode outwards from the chamber, with reality changing and overlapping in their wake.

The metal rods sticking out from her head like a perverse crown begin to arc like a halo. Her whole body goes up like a transformer blowing and soon reality is torn asunder.

"It's party time now!" she calls out triumphantly, trails of electricity bleeding from her eyes.

"thisisaprettycoolmovie!" Tilt says excitedly, "butwherearealltheotherpeople? ibetalotofpeoplewouldlovetoseethis!"

“Couldn’t make it.” He says shortly as he begins gesturing at the doors, sealing them with ice. “Looks like you get a front row seat!”


"Ohhh," Tesla coos seductively, "I think I have enough left to deal with you."

Tesla will take to the air, electricity arcing from her as she gains flight and dances along anything metal in the vicinity. She turns her inhuman eyes towards the awe-struck kid, intent on cutting her down.

Lavender:

Lavender has returned to Blackout’s side, only he’s got company!
Blackout wrote:"I sure hope it wasn't your friends that started this mess," Blackout says flatly. Before he can say more though, there are some new players in the game.
“They’re not my friends! Okay?” Lavender objects. “I was just forced to work for them! But that’s doesn’t matter any more. This has all spiraled out of control.”
Evil and Rude Backlash wrote:“Awe look, a masked man and his hired hag!” he says with a sneer as his eyes twinkle with amusement.
“Excuse me?” Lavender says in near disbelief. “He didn’t hire me and I’m sure not a hag! Get some glasses!”
Blackout wrote:"I agree that we need to put this right," Blackout says to Lavender, "but there is no way we can let these individuals run rampant throughout the city until we figure it out. Stay with me or get yourself clear, either way I need to handle this."
“But you can handle three of them!” Lavender responds, confused by this show of bravery. “It’d be better to simply runaway!”
More Evil and Rude Backlash wrote:"Not much of a lover from what I heard. More like a bimbo tease. Why did she have to open her mouth and talk, she was so much prettier then... Going full density Lash will attempt a move through on Lavender. “Where ya going, we’re just about to have some fun.”
“Like you would know, dog breath!” Lavender taunts back, visibly angry. “I’ll have you know that I’m a professional quality companion!”
Blackout wrote:"Not really nice to talk about a lady like that," Blackout says to the male antagonist, fully aware of the girl who's spinning like a psychotic top closing in. He needs to buy Lavender a few seconds to escape, so he pulls his rod and throws it at the man who is getting ready to charge her.
Lavender holds, unsure just what to do. Her natural instinct is to shift away from all this danger. She wants Blackout to come with her, but he wants to stay and fight.

“Maybe I can help,” Lavender states, gaining some courage.

Lavender will attempt to teleport the ignorant man right into the path of the psychotic top girl. Let them take each other out in the process!

“Puberty?” he asks in relative shock as he just gazes on her new form.
“That’s not much help,” Gloria answers. Maybe Dr. Williams has a better idea what is going on. She’s always been so knowledgeable in the past.

Negative Stargirl:


Stargirl watches as Sinister Tesla does her thing. Up in the control both Mom is speaking to the quick little girl. The conversation is probably pretty amusing.
Frosty wrote:“Already on it love. Plan? What plan? We have a plan?” he says with and icy smirk his dark eyes looking about for someone to hit. Seeing the girl near Darkstar, Frosty eyes her curiously then she speaks.
“The same plan as always, love. Pain to those who cross our paths!”

Stargirl rises into the air to get a better look around the area. She sees Tesla making a move towards the quick little girl. Stargirl won’t interfere with Tesla’s fun, but will keep her eyes open for any other intruders.

BlackOut's eyes flash red and vampric fangs gleam through the darkness. It's about the only thing Backlash can see of him. BlackOut will send out his tendrils of darkness to ensnare the heroic interloper.

Backlash wonders just what the hell he is dealing with as fangs and reds eyes stare at him from the darkness, As the arms come towards him he wonders just how well he can play catch. Full Density move through on Blob fang boy.

Gargoyle recovers from all the sudden reality shifts to find that he’s grappling air. Furious, he bellows after his escaping target.

“WHY YOU SLIPPERY LITTLE… GET YER TIN PLATED KEISTER BACK HERE AND FIGHT LIKE A MAN, YA BLASTED COWARD!!!”

With his playmates all gone, Gargy finally takes notice of his surroundings.

“YOU GOTTA BE KIDDIN ME! NOW WHAT?!”

Surveying the state of the Plaza and surrounding area Gargoyle sighs in resignation

“YA KNOW, RACKHAM’S GONNA FIND A WAY TA PIN THIS ALL ON ME!”

As the Vigilant take to the air Gargoyle will assume the position of rear guard, toppling advancing Neo-Zombies into each other as necessary. When everyone is airborne Gargy will coil his powerful leg muscles and accompany the heroes to their destination.

Menagerie:

GoldLily rises into the air with Eldrich held tight against her side. Flux has announced that they are heading to the Starr Building, but then a message comes in from Edgar.
Edgar wrote:“I am receiving, Master Flux. Eleven other dimensions are overlapping this one. They are randomly fluxuating in size and location. Their source is the Infinity Exports platform twenty miles out to sea. The Starr Building, along with The Vigilant Sea Base are dimensional fixed locations. They cannot be altered by these dimensional shifts. Backlash is currently here with Dr. Williams and Stargirl.”
"Boss, I think we may want to head straight to this Infinity exports site. That seems to be the source of the emergency." Before Flux can respond, Menagerie adds another suggestion. "Or perhaps we should split into two teams and hit both locations..."

Dark Menagerie:
BlackOut wrote:"Hardly worth the trouble," BlackOut hisses, "but maybe there will be some souls we can harvest."
"Just like a man... always driven by your appetites..." DarkLilian murmurs seductively into her throat mike. "Hell, I doubt she'll be much than a tasty snack..."

She floats around the corner just in time to see that BackLash moron throw himself towards her lover - at least, one of her lovers at the moment. Seems he'll get that snack even sooner than expected. Conveniently, this leaves the route to Star-princess wide open, and DarkLilian is never one to pass up an opportunity.

"Eat this, princess," she says as she unleashes the most powerful Radiation Blast she can manage at the tasty morsel.

Actually, for some reason I had it in mind that this was the way you normally wrote it. Guess I didn't bother to check. <shrug>
