Welcome to Gaia! ::

Robert Reynolds paced his old cell in the raft. He had considered locking himself away again more than a few times now, but something seemed to stop him each time. He wasn’t sure if he was making the right choice however. Was he more of a hindrance than a help?

C.L.O.C.: Armed robbery taking place in New York City. Forest fire in Queensland Australia.

Sentry: Prioritise.

This was a difficult thing to do, prioritising where he would help out at any given moment. This meant that people could be killed as a result of his decisions, however it was something he had become used to. The cold hard reality of the Super-Hero business, he couldn’t be in two places at once.

Sentry rose into the air and headed off at great speed.

[Exit to New York]

Enter from Exodus

Abolisher soon appeared in one of the many halls in a burst of flames. Hoshi casually turned to look back at him. "Done already?

"Something else has come up. If you're going to do it, I'd do it now while certain people are distracted." Abolisher replied, then again left in his cloud of flames.

Hoshi grinned a moment and took a quick glance at one of the doors down the hall. It should be fine for a few minutes. He just needed to stop somewhere and grab a few things.
With that, he vanished as well.


EXIT Abolisher and Hoshi to Latveria

[enter the Spectre from Exodus]

The Spectre appeared without his usual burst of energy. He looked around. His target had just been here. He followed his energy signature away from there.

[exit the Spectre to Latveria]

ENTER from Home Sweet Home

A burst of white and gold energy exploded in the middle of the large hall. It suddenly wrapped around Hoshi, and slammed him into the wall with enough force to crush a boulder. A second later, a figure could be seen within the raging mass of energy, and Alcina walked out of it and towards Hoshi. Energy still radiating off of her like fire, and her face the very picture of scorn.

"I take it you got my gift?" Hoshi said, a grin still on his face.

Energy flooded off of her and slammed into him with the same force. He grunted painfully behind it, and the wall gave way completely, sending him into the room behind him. He grunted and rolled over onto his stomach, a smile curling around his face once she couldn't see it.
A second later, the rest of the wall exploded, sending debree raining down on him. A few seconds after that, he felt hands yank him off the ground, then wrap around his throat.
He winced a bit and stared back at the furious woman. The first thing he noticed was, given her power and current emotional state, she wasn't exerting near as much pressure around his throat as she should be. Then, he noticed that there was absolutely no trace of the energy she once had around her.
His smile grew. "You know, you're really in no position to make futile attempts on me."

Alcina's expression darkened, and she squeezed harder. Then...her grip loosened considerably, and her expression turned confused. Hoshi's smile grew even more and she let go of him completely and stepped away.

"Oh, sorry. Were you trying to do...this?" he asked, a blast of energy suddenly launching from his hands. The blast knocked Alcina completely off her feet and slammed her into where the wall once stood, and a now invisible force field seemed to be. She slid down it and collapsed onto the floor.
"Did you really expect me to pull something like that and not be ready for you?" he asked as he started towards her.

Alcina coughed and tried to sit herself back up, as well as use any bit of magic she could. Nothing happened. At all.
Hoshi's boot moved under her chin and tipped her head up so she could look at him.
"I picked up a few new toys. It can hold a being of incredible power within it's range, and completely irradicate their powers while trapped inside. And since I put some of your DNA inside of it...specifically your idiot son's blood...youre the equivilant of a human in here. And you'll be like that for quite some time should you by some mirical escape this room. Anyone else would be able to use their powers the moment they left. Your ability to use your powers will return in time, but I plan on having you in here for a very long time. So it could take a couple years." he continued. The boot under her chin suddenly jerked back, then smashed into the side of her face. Before she had a chance to recover, he latched onto her hair and slammed her against the invisible wall that she couldn't pass through. She grunted and tried to fight her way away from him. Without her use of powers...of any kind....she was completely out matched against him, and was forcefully slammed into the wall again. "Not that you'll live that long, of course."

Alcina kept still, but glared at him furiously. Nothing she could do. "You're not getting away with this. I swear I'll kill you for what you've done." A backhand with what felt like a blade on it stopped her from saying anything further. Before she could make another move, a mess of tendrills shot out from Hoshi's jacket and pinned her against the 'wall'.

"Keep it up with the attitude. It'll only make breaking you even more satisfying." Hoshi replied with a grin.

Alcina's face was still winced in pain, and a small stream of gold slid down her cheek from the large gash that now ran across it.

Hoshi grinned and tisked, a tendril snaked it's way up and wraped around her chin to force her to look at him. "Hurt? Really not used to pain, are you? All that magic you use to protect you from everything, you probably don't even remember what pain is." he said, more tendrils of different sizes snaking out of his jacket. A bladed one wrapped around her neck, cutting into the sides of her neck very slightly. "I'll be sure to make this quite educational then."

She glared at him with every ounce of hatered she had in her. "When X-"

"X. Isn't. Comming. Or were you not paying attention to the whole 'he has other women' thing." Hoshi said, cutting her off.
Alcina simply glared at him. "Still giving me that attitude? Well then, let's see if I can make you realize all the reason's X wouldn't give a damn about you." he said, then placed a hand over her forehead.
Her eyes flashed blue, then she suddenly clamped them shut and struggled against him again. "I know these probably aren't things you want to see, but I really insist. Since I know you don't like 'taking a good look in the mirror'."

Hoshi's eyes widened a bit, clearly not expecting what was about to happen. He hadn't planned on anyone coming to her rescue, let alone anyone that was able to use power inside the room.

As the tendrils released Alcina, she collapsed onto the floor again, and a few of the 'snakes' successfully made it around Hoshi's neck...who was now backing away from the woman.
After the last lightning bolt, Hoshi vanished, and quickly appeared on the other side of the room. The tendrils completely gone. Still surprised, he scanned the room for whoever else was here.

Alcina easily made it back to her feet, but stood quietly for a second with her head down. She was trying to keep herself from shaking, as her hands were. "Y-yes." she replied calmly. She still couldn't get past the forcefield where the wall had been though. She wasn't used to being powerless, at all.

Hoshi locked eyes with strange for a moment, then grinned slightly. "Oh. Heh, forgot about you." he said quietly.
