You can come out if you want, a female voice announced out of nowhere, sounding mildly amused. It might have been meant as a horrible prank, but personally I think it was attempted murder on the part of at least one of the people involved. She was only about eleven at the time and it took a while for her to fully understand that her mother had died in a car accident and she'd never see her again. She glanced at him, then went back to staring out to sea. Too muscled. She was lost in admiration of the optical cells covering the exoskeleton when the person she was investigating made an amused sound. Their powers just dumped all these designs into their heads and gave them ideas, but most of them simply build intuitively. And why am I here? Director Piggot stared hard at her. Taylors mother was different from everyone else. Indeed we do, if only because Im incredibly curious, she smiled. After a moment the figure waved at her. Dont worry, Im not going to cause any problems for you guys unless you cause problems for me, she eventually said, turning and walking back towards the edge of the roof. Last year there were an estimated two hundred and sixteen million cases of malaria around the world. She turned her head towards him, making him stare again, a little shocked and unnerved, although he wouldn't have admitted it to anyone. He kept discreetly studying her while she looked back out over the water at the rising sun. The (un)lucky person turns out to be one Taylor Hebert, having just been stuffed into a school locker by a trio of bullies. Honest. See you around. Incomplete, and I haven't read it in a while, but I remember it being quite good. It started out as a yellowjacket but I shrank it to make it less obvious and to raise the pitch of the wings enough that it wasnt very audible, and changed the color so it doesnt stand out. This has been rumbling for a little on my snippet thread and finally reached the point where it really needed a home of its own. Thats more than a little scary he said honestly. You may extract some amusement value from it, you might not. It took her a while to work out what she was seeing, but when she did she grinned. Standing, he looked around, then back to her. 10 even? Piggot asked, looking worried. Who the hell is Hive? she exploded. Taylor often read fairytales when she was a child, and was endlessly amused by the talking animals, trolls, and fairies. She was in there for hours, and absolutely no one helped her. There was a quiet rhythm to them, a delicate balancing act between boredom and terror, between long silences where your mind could wander and moments where you were so focused you could spot a dropped pin. As little as possible, Im afraid. What did you do to them? she asked curiously. Emma's body is discovered over winter break, the locker never happens, Taylor triggers with a thinker power remarkably reminiscent of supercop Harrier du Bois' unique way of looking at the world. Then, convulsively, he flung the pistol across the room and ran his hands over his face hard enough to hurt. Mechanics will be explained to some extent in the fic. I've been away she told him, sounding like she regretted this. They were mixed with some sort of metal in a repeating pattern that defied easy analysis. None of these conclusions, except for the second one, made her feel in any way better. We dont have enough information yet to be sure of any of this. When she finished and stopped talking, Vicky simply looked at her for close to thirty seconds without saying anything at all. You people? he asked, grinning for a moment. That's going to need dry cleaning. Forget the freaking costume, Ames, and go on with the story, Vicky urged her. Why haven't you seen the sun for a long time? he eventually asked, unable to pass up the question. A new one, presumably, or else a renamed one. Personally I think she should have been even so and quite a few other people feel the same, but Director Piggot was over-ruled on that decision. I know, she said softly. She didn't reply for a moment, merely stared at him, making him wonder So what did happen? he ended up asking. Or, in which Taylor is a biotinker, Greg is here to catch when her power's getting up to shit, and they're both adorable. I don't know. A storehouse of weapons beyond imagination, controlled by an enigmatic old man of unclear origins and an abused teenager. That's not really an explanation, sis, the blonde sighed. Oh, Jesus Christ, he breathed, putting it all together suddenly. In a locker on Earth Bet, the future always changes irreparably, for better or for worse. Were going to have to tell the Director, of course. Yes, I think so. She hesitated. Assuming you had time. She had ideals, you see, she wanted to be a Hero. Im not the second coming of Nilbog, or anything like that, although I expect a lot of people will come to that conclusion. The armor of the suit had an oddly iridescent effect about it, a predominantly dark gray color sparkling through a rainbow of shades depending on the angle the light hit it and where it was on the body. . Id expect a Brute rating of some sort, Assault added. Only those dumpsters left, the machete-wielding assailant announced. His head came up. And she remembers you all right. Her complexion went an unpleasant brown-gray color. The next part was worse. A series of thuds told her that her teammates had met the same fate. Too often it is for worse, and hope is crushed beneath annihilation. Easy enough to influence if you know how. They looked at each other for a few seconds more. Not a good person, that girl. Hive held out one of her own right hands, the delicate-looking clawed digits wrapping around Amys own fingers. Oh god I am so excited this is getting it's own thread. If she was truthful about her abilities, I think we need to add a Tinker rating as well, Armsmaster commented somewhat reluctantly. Youre certain it was her? she asked quietly. It's over, the PRT picked them up and there's nothing for you to worry about. The insect control is also a definite Shaker rating, at least 2 or higher, since as she said she could make every insect in an area attack someone. Some thought that a trigger event was the traumatic part of getting powers. Unluckily, her power isn't the subtlest thing alive, and the Wards are chasing her soon after. Why were they chasing you? To be honest, he was at a loss for the moment. Hopefully I can improve on this with some practice and come up with something that at least looks more human, but this will do for now. She paused, then went on, The biggest problem I have is thinking slowly enough to communicate with you people. Taylor was, too. Not right now. Her head moved in a nod. In her case, it was the "vision" that followed. You have stolen the fire of Mount Olympus and cast down the gods. Knock out that underpinning and the entire ecology has a drastic change, which wed see very quickly. Because of the way they worked, it wasn't directly possible, but her powers found a way even so. Something horrible that leaked out of a dumpster, she said, shrugging a bit then resuming scrubbing. In a way. Assault sat there for a while during which she went back to watching the wasps dance in the air. Eventually the other woman snapped, Don't just stop there! Armsmaster nodded once more, more slowly. Taylor Hebert died on the fourth of January, 2011. not ALOT of conflict, but taylor is really powerful, and seems to be fixing problems slowly and doing with with the least amount of conflict she can. Lifting a hand she waved it dismissively. Oh, hell, she muttered, already feeling her legs stiffen up. Trap? But that won't stop her from flying as high as she can. Amy nodded. Diebuster cross. Somewhere. But everyone else seemed to believe it. Undaunted, beaten but unbowed, she resolves to drag Earth Bet to a brighter tomorrow, no matter how much it kicks and screams on the way there. What else? The director suddenly seemed in a slightly happier mood, making everyone look at her for a couple of seconds. Ive never seen that toxin before. So we either have some parahuman arsonist who just happened to torch a school which coincidentally happened to have a fifteen year old girl trapped in a locker full of biological waste in it, or whoever actually did the trapping then set the fire to cover their tracks. I think Lisa might have become a Demi-God. And also one of the luckiest. She could here them poking around in the various possible hiding places, starting with the ones nearest the alley entrance. She was as uncooperative as usual, but in the end I managed to get her to admit to knowing the victim. Same again. I was born here. Turning, she grabbed both her sister's shoulders. I want to talk to you about several subjects. Please consider turning it on! Its absolutely amazing. Piggot didnt look too happy about that. Director Piggot sighed, staring at the folder that detailed the last moments of a fifteen-year-old girls life in nauseating detail. But for Taylor, it was bad. She resumed watching the performing wasps, which now numbered about a dozen, forming ever more elaborate patterns in the air. It was a sensible suggestion. Sort of just so competent and sure of herself. She Triggers, with the power to copy other powers. I am. He had people to fill in. Even after her death, her husband and daughter knew very little about her. Dengue fever cases since the end of January? Wildworm A psuedo-tinker from Wildstorm appears in Brockton. The invisibility was very impressive for something that was biologically based. Which adds a Stranger rating as well, of course, Miss Militia put in. The Sun was just clearing the horizon, the lower edge a finger's-breadth above the water, the buttery rays highlighting the east-facing buildings with gold and yellow colors, while in the Bay itself the glittering force-field around the Rig glinted with extra shades from the same source. It looks like the word she, with part of another letter at the end. It was written in blood based on the chemical analysis, Armsmaster replied. And they can produce some weird results. Both true. She nodded. Combined with effective invisibility it could be higher. Ill do what I can to help with Endbringers, not that at the moment thats very much except dogpiling them with a hell of a lot of attack drones, which may or may not do anything useful, and I may intervene if I see a crime that needs dealing with. So, its likely that the same source is responsible. That would be my guess, yes. She looked seriously at him. I wouldnt go that far, but Im certainly not a normal parahuman, no. She seemed to find the idea funny. As far as Im concerned that entire thing was four centuries ago and I dont hold a grudge that long, generally. So on balance, yes, its a good thing, although the cause might not be. Youre thinking its parahuman involvement, then. It wasnt a question. Glowworm is a Worm fanfic written by redshirt. Find Shadow Stalker and have her see me, she said. She had parents who were good and loving people, despite not being well off, and a friend. If nothing else the ecological side-effects of that would be horrific and very noticeable. She slapped his hand away, still looking around. Overall it didn't resemble normal power armor nearly as much as it did a giant, human sized insect exoskeleton, with the most amazing paint job hed ever seen. Not least of which was the fact that one of her tormentors worked for you guys. Sophia, he muttered. Or mine. Director Piggot looked at the photos in the opened folder and winced despite herself. I know, I should have made sure to charge it and I will next time. Get a spare battery as well, her sister commented, listening with interest. It took a long time and a hell of a lot of experimentation, but I finally worked out how to make an insect that could act as a bridge between a computer network and my own. Add to that arachnids, mites, copepods, crabs She glanced at him as he paled. Blinking, she stared harder, but could no longer see anything. He shook his head again dismissively. After quite a long time in which he tried to collect himself, he finally said weakly, So, you're in He waved a hand at the wasps. 'Nearly a week,' he thought, closing his eyes for a moment. Twenty years have passed since the Fissure opened. Huddled as far back as she could get she waited for whatever would happen, her heart hammering in her ears. Press question mark to learn the rest of the keyboard shortcuts. The story begins with Taylor encountering a homeless man in the rain and offering her umbrella to keep him dry. She suspected that the woman holding her probably couldnt lift all that much more weight, but she seemed to have no real problems dealing with Amy. Adding to that, there was just something about her which didn't quite fit that theory. Danny Hebert sat in his office chair, looking out the window at the crumbling ships in the distance, lit from the side by the setting sun, his hands slowly feeling what they were holding. Although Taylor sandbags harder than all of The Endbringers combined, occasionally, she does show her true power. It's been a very long time since I've seen the sunrise with my own eyes like this. Her former friend had a new best friend, a very disturbed individual who was well, a violent sociopath is a kind way to put it. Using a parahuman weapon in the process. Yes.
