User ImageAnthony pulled into the garage he paid for and killed the engine, leaving the keys in the ignition. Less than an hour had passed since his time with Oual and now he sat leaning forward on his chair head resting on his hands as he contemplated what could get Oual so worked up. Getting up he flicked the switch to his "Office," a corner of his garage in which he stored his computer and notes as a crime fighter as well as a floor to ceiling locker filled with his costume and any equipment he deemed necessary.

Booting the computer up he typed feverishly into the search engine to find Delmor Police Department, once there he did a search to find current officers. Several minutes later he had a profile of Oual and his work since joining the force. Oddly enough he had taken one Lieutenant James Cross under his wing. Anthony leaned back in his chair and laced his fingers behind his head as he released a sigh. Why did this information seem relevant?

His mind whirred into motion suddenly as his eyes started fluttering in his head. He saw a man who was certainly on steroids of some sort being apprehended by a woman officer. He twitched suddenly and was brought back to the present. Going back to the officer's profile page he did a search for women officers. Another ten minutes and he had the woman from his vision. "Laura Listerine, what do you have to do with Oual and James..." He questioned aloud as he swiveled in his chair to face the locker his equipment was stored in.

User Image Alma slammed the door behind followed by a shout of "Hey!" from the kitchen. No longer sobbing but clearly upset, the goth fled from the outside world into bedroom. Her out-of-place, mostly white cat, Rindercella meowed in protest as her owner fell onto the bed with purple and white cat-hair covers. She just lay there, empty with no energy to even pet Rinder, who was now rubbing her face into Alma's.

"You alright, Alma?" Vince called from the stairs.

"Yeah," She mumbled barely loud enough for him to hear. Mentally, she could seem him shrug and go back to whatever he was doing and reminding himself to call Mom later. Vince never really understood girls.

Her eyes drooped with a non-physically exhaustion. "Are you crazy?" still rang in her mind. Alma drew in a shuddering breath and stroked Rinder's head, to which a soft purring came in response. Content with just laying there, the goth soon fell asleep...

~~~~~~~~[Added March 30, 2010]~~~~~~~~

Alma awoke with her glasses sliding off her face. After a slight moment of confusion and panic, the girl realized it was she wasn't late for church or something similar, but it the middle of the night. A realization dawned on her as she noticed she was mostly refreshed. The goth could go out for a few hours to practice. Vince was probably still in bed, making a mess of his sheets. He wouldn't notice if she slipped out for a few hours and came back for to catch a another hour or two before her alarm. The goth would just have to watch her time.

A quick stretch later, Alma began rooting through her closet for something to wear. Delmor had always been infamous for a large number of Supers, what was one more? She had already met three earlier today, or was it yesterday? A nonverbal sigh rippled through her body as she thought of Austin. All she could possibly do to try to amend their almost non-exist relationship would be to apologize on Monday.

It took her a moment to remember what she was doing. Furiously shaking her head, she got back to looking for a costume. If anyone found out she was a Super.... Alma stopped herself. She rather not think about what her father would do, seeing as she already knew almost nothing about his work.

User ImageA couple of minutes later, Alma looked at herself in her bathroom mirror. The zipper and bucket coat and matching pants had been waiting for use since she ordered them without asking Vince first. They were incredibly comfortable but where fitting enough she probably wouldn't have to worry about them falling off easily. The boots where an older set pair and though comfortable, not quite in a good enough condition to wear to school, especially since her mom bought her a new pair just before the move. Her gloves her just to prevent fingerprints and crap. It'd be bad if they find out her identity because of something so careless. Lucid Dusk hung limply on her back, wrapped in shadows. It could occasionally be seen, however, as the darkness was in constant motion.

A smile formed on her lips as she pulled up the hood of the coat and the face mask, formally of a Halloween costume. Before heading to her window, Alma made took another quick glance at the mirror. Though it was hard to identify herself, she made note to make a better mask; one that fully hid her eyes. The goth took a few strides and faced the window and gritted her teeth. Going through walls (which she discovered she could do only a few nights again), made her queasy.

Taking a deep breath, she let her shadows form into a tail and set of wings on the exhale. Mentally, Alma called the shadows on each side of the wall to "link" with each other, allowing her, or others, to pass through the wall by going from one shadow to another. Swallowing any rising nausea, the goth stepped through the window and into the night.

User Image The flight home had been uneventful. Silent had heard sirens left and right but there had been no desire from any part of her being to head towards them. Stepping through the same glass she had exited in, Silent found herself back in the "low ground" of her home. Exhausted, physically and mentally, Silent removed her persona and became Alma once more, in pajamas. Rinder mewed sleepily as the goth pulled back the comforter of the cold bed. Blinking slowly, she remembered the ice cream she had promised herself back on the roof. Stroking her kitty cat once in a non-verbal promise of "I'll be back," Alma pulled on her bathrobe and walked up to the kitchen.

She moved slowly in the subconscious hope Vince wouldn't hear her sneaking around the house. Upon reaching the kitchen, Alma quickly and quietly prepared her indulgence for the night. Glancing at the clock on the microwave, her mind numbly noted she had about two hours before Vince would be starting to wake up. A small light bulb flared in her head; she could see but her glasses weren't on. Raising her hand and gesturing towards the closed chocolate ice cream container, Alma willed the shadows in the darkened kitchen to lift the container and put it in the freezer once more. Grumbling at her own stupidity for not thinking of it sooner, Alma made her shadows carry her back to her room while eating the quickly melting dessert. The sneaking could have been easily avoided, but that's what happened with a completely exhausted mind.

Upon reaching the bed, Alma placed the empty bowl on a shelf were Rinder had a lower chance of reaching it and crawled into the bed. Petting the feline without much thought, the goth quickly fell asleep.

User ImageUnfortunately for Anthony the work from his crime-fighting life never seemed to end and was constantly spilling over into his regular life. As he pulled into the driveway he saw a series of boxes on his front porch. Big boxes. He was confused at first but then it hit him and he realized what they were and shut the car off and hopped out.

Once he got all of the packages inside Anthony took them and his gym bag to the garage. Opening the Gym bag he put it's contents in the locker that stored his uniform and crime-fighting gear. Scooting the chair back from his computer desk he took the current computer and unplugged it. Setting it on a shelf in the garage he three of the boxes and set them on the desk. Getting a box cutter he opened the boxes and gasped. Inside were three of the five computer's he had ordered. Three 24 inch LED display mac desktop computers stared back at him. They were nearly too big for the desk he had. Which was why he turned to the remaining packages; two of them contained similar computers that were just a little bit smaller screens, one of them had various parts such as keyboards, mice, enormous external hardrive, and numerous cables for this and that. The remaining two boxes were his new desk that would house these computers. Anthony smiled, "I suppose I can stay awake a little while longer."

When he was all finished setting everything up Anthony stood back and yawned with satisfaction. Three computer screens stood above the other two which were all hooked up and operational. His command post was completely state of the art and ready to go. He took his note pad out and set it next to the computer, he'd log the information he jotted down later. For now, he sat in the computer chair and pushed the central power button; causing all five screens to turn on and various programs to start installing themselves. All the screens were run through a central server that held everything he needed from police logs and reports to information about costumed heroes/ villains he'd dealt with.

The whole system was cleverly disguised with green technology that cause low power usage and several programs that masked what he was doing. He opened a search and typed: Hero log. A list opened and was blank, he typed in: Enter new hero. A field popped up asking various questions. He entered all the information he had on Sentinel including the sound clips he'd recorded from police scanners earlier and the video footage from the museum. Next he entered the character that helped him defeat the street thugs. He sat back and looked at the screens thoughtfully. Dragging the mouse across the screen to the next screen up he typed in: Create new storage area. The file popped open and he labeled it: Oual/ Team Collaboration. Once opened he entered another command: Cross-reference. Satisfied he sat up and allowed the processor to due its thing. Walking over to the opposite wall of the garage he pulled on a string attached to the wall where a fold out bed was stored. He was asleep before his head hit the pillow.

User ImageAnthony awoke to the dinging of an alarm. He sat up quickly and winced, mind the wounds moron. Looking around he forgot why he'd spent the night in the garage until he saw the computer screens, each with a little white light pulsing to under the black screens to remind him they were on. He stretched gingerly and looked at his costume hanging in the open locker across from him. It was damaged and bloody.

"Computer take note," The screens came to life and one of them opened up a voice recorder and a word document, "Suit needs to be redesigned to sustain a little heavier damage, the criminal element of Delmor is packing a little more heat than originally anticipated. Furthermore there is nowhere to store things in the suit, objects become cumbersome to carry. Perhaps something with pockets like a jacket. He stood and noted the bruises on his ribs and the medical tape that was bloodied by the bullet wounds. He would have to wear a few layers to work.
