    Naze
    The Omni Order Center, Omni City

    Naze found the stack that Dirk had mention and could hear the incessant phone ringing a lot clearer now. For certain the phone was buried. Without really thinking about it, Naze began to dig for the phone, more than likely because he just wanted to make it stop.

    'How deep is that thing buried' he wondered after a minute or so of continuous digging.

    Naze was hoping the caller would be a person who needed their aid and not some telemarketer...or even worse: a reporter.

    He then heard a very loud 'CLICK' sound, and then an unknown voice ... "I'm sorry, no one is available to take your call. Please leave a message...."

    It was the automated answering service.

    He could also hear another voice, male, going.."Hello....Hello?" on the other end of the answering machine...

    Well, it certainly did not sound like a telemarketer or a reporter, so it had to be someone who needed their help....but, how did they know to use this number?

    Without dwelling too much on that, Naze gave the bundle a great heave, which miraculously revealed the phone. Instantly, Naze grabbed for the receiver and answered the call.

    "Uhm..Hello? this is the Omni League Center...." an unreal feeling came over him as it dawned on him that he was answering a call in an 'official' capacity.Wow!

    "....how may I assist you?"

    Naze waited for the caller to respond as he wrinkled his nose a bit at how he'd answered the phone. He'd have to come up with a better script for the immediate future....yeah, there was just so much to do and no time to do it in. Yup, this was it...Superhero Business. Woo Hoo!

    A slow smile appeared on Naze's face. Indeed, the great adventure had begun.

    Boy things just keep getting better. First she gets so flustered that she does a costume change in front of people, then she totally spaces on the fact that Naze had called a locksmith and that this could have been him.
    Now the phone was ringing and they were digging through piles of trash trying to find it. Naze finally found it.

    "Uhm..Hello? this is the Omni League Center....how may I assist you?"


    Yuko pulled out her notebook again and added ?Write a scripted greeting? to her list. She waited for Naze to give her some details.

    Naze and Yuko
    The Omni Order Center, Omni City



    "Hello....Hello?" the voice on the other end of the answering machine called out. It was their first official act. Their first call to duty. Wow! What a rush. Haze thought about who could have the number, but he quickly dismissed it for now, as he gave the bundle a great heave, which miraculously revealed
    the phone. Instantly, Naze grabbed for the receiver and answered the call.

    "Uhm..Hello? this is the Omni League Center....how may I assist you?"

    My, my he sounded so professional.

    Meanwhile, Yuko, who had been having a major spaz attack, trying to deal with a few interruptions, came to life as the phone rang, and was answered by Naze. She knew her little quick change was going to haunt her for a bit. Luckily, there
    was only the two of them at the moment.

    Yuko pulled out her notebook again and added ?Write a scripted greeting? to her list. She waited for Naze to give her some details.

    As Naze waited for the caller to respond, a slow smile appeared on Naze's face. Then the earpiece crackled to life once more.

    "Hello? Dont know if you can hear this. Are you guys open? We need some help here, pronto. The thift shop on 4th and Alverez is ..."

    There was a loud crack over the phone line, so loud that even Yuko could hear it from where she stood. It was nearly deafening to Naze. About as deafening as the the sound of the dial tone that now was the only sound coming from the receiver. They both looked at each other.

    Was it their first case?! Or maybe just some cheesy acting? Or perhaps, even a wrong number.? Nahhh! But whatever it was, it was demanding their attentions.

    However were our superheros going to respond to this threat?

    A happy 'WOOT!' was heard in the background, from Carter as they did their work.



    :p

    Hehe. We have others joining us soon. So hang in there guys!!

    And thanks! :D

    The Omni Order Center, Omni City

    It seemed like an eternity, but it was only a few heartbeats as Naze looked disbelievingly at the receiver in his hand, the dial tone being the only sound coming out of it as he hung up the phone.

    "Hello? Don't know if you can hear this. Are you guys open? We need some help here, pronto. The thrift shop on 4th and Alvarez is ..." the message played itself again inside his mind, the "Bang", went the sound in his head. The sound was unmistakable, but was this a real call for help or something more sinister?

    Naze already knew what a 'real hero' would do, and he was not about to begin his career by ignoring a call for help.

    Without any further hesitation, Naze wheeled around and began to rush towards his duffel bag.

    "Yuko!" he cried out as he found his bag. "We got a call! There's a crime in progress!! get into costume....c'mon!!"

    Without looking back or waiting, Naze ran in the direction he'd heard Carter. He burst quite hastily and unceremoniously into the room and began to change right then and there!!

    "Ok! guys! just got a call!" Naze began to explain in a hurried manner as he continued to take out his costume, piece by piece and began to change.

    "I'm not from around here, so you'll need to tell me the quickest way to get to the Thrift Shop on Alvarez and 4th!!"

    In a jiff, Naze had donned the 'Robocop' armor costume, protective plastic helmet, boots and all! He had the Sword of Omens in his main hand, Captain America's Shield on his off-hand, Foam Dart Shooter in its holster and Black Dragon foam nunchaku strapped to the side of his leg. Before them, Naze no longer stood, but the Toyminator himself!! prepped and ready to fight crime.

    "Yuko!" Naze yelled excitedly. "We got a call! There's a crime in progress!! get into costume....c'mon!!"

    He took off through a door to a back room. Yuko smiled at his excitement, like a kid on Christmas. Looking around she found a door that led to a small empty room. She didn't want to repeat her earlier mistake of changing in front of anyone. Just thinking about it made her flush, her eyes widened as she fought to keep the warmth of her cheeks from igniting anything. It was a struggle but she finally cooled down and changed.

    Straightening her mask, she went back to Naze. He was in costume now too. She bit down on her tongue to keep from giggling, not that she found his costume funny, although he did look like a big kid. No she hid her giggle because she always giggled when she found a guy to be cute and she defiantly didn't want Naze to take her odd habits the wrong way.

    ?Ready when you are Toyminator .?

    Naze started at the phone as if it had somehow grown a new appendage, after hearing the call for aid.

    "Hello? Don't know if you can hear this. Are you guys open? We need some help here, pronto. The thrift shop on 4th and Alvarez is ..."


    Naze already knew what a 'real hero' would do, and he was not about to begin his career by ignoring a call for help. Without any further hesitation, Naze wheeled around and began to rush towards his duffel bag.

    "Yuko!" he cried out as he found his bag. "We got a call! There's a crime in progress!! get into costume....c'mon!!"

    He took off through a door to a back room. Yuko smiled at his excitement, like a kid on Christmas. Without looking back or waiting, Naze ran in the direction he'd heard Carter, He burst quite hastily and unceremoniously into the room and began to change right then and there!!

    Carter and Dirk stared at each other, and grinned. They had a feeling they would be seeing alot of that going on. Course, HIS change was not quite as interesting as Yuko, but as he began to to pull out his 'equipment', the boys found themselves staring in fascination. Well, it looked like fascination to Naze.

    "Ok! guys! just got a call!" Naze began to explain in a hurried manner as he continued to take out his costume, piece by piece and began to change.

    "I'm not from around here, so you'll need to tell me the quickest way to get to the Thrift Shop on Alvarez and 4th!!"

    Carter spoke up then, as he held his finger to his head. "Ok. 4th and Alvarez...near, Domino's pizza..real good pasta bowls, uh..thats 4th Street Thirft shop..nice lady. By bike thats 3 blocks up, 7 blocks left and 2 blocks right. Watch out for the signals." His reply was so fast, that Naze barely had time to blink. Dirk spoke up then. "Cant miss the place..literally. Big PINK sign."

    Carter gave Naze..uh..the Toyminator a big thumbs up, and have Dirk a wink.

    Yuko on the other hand, found a door that led to a small empty room. She didnt need to give the boys another show. And there WAS a stranger in the place. Just thinking about it made her flush, her eyes widened as she fought to keep the warmth of her cheeks from igniting anything. It was a struggle but she finally cooled down and changed.

    Naze stepped back out into the main area, now dressed in his finest superhero gear. Naze had donned the 'Robocop' armor costume, protective plastic helmet, boots and all! He had the Sword of Omens in his main hand, Captain America's Shield on his off-hand, Foam Dart Shooter in its holster and Black Dragon foam nunchaku strapped to the side of his leg. Before them, Naze no longer stood, but the Toyminator himself!! prepped and ready to fight crime.

    Yuko she went back to Naze. He was in costume now too. She bit down on her tongue to keep from giggling. He was kinda qute in tights.

    ?Ready when you are Toyminator .?

    The call for action having been raised, our two superheros head out for their first real call. Now, the question came up...how were they getting there?

    The first hurdle of their life as a superhero. Meanwhile, Dirk had dissapeared, leaving Carter happily grinning like mad at the pair.

    Croyd Crenson looked around in the room he was currently occupying. Not the best of places he has had the pleasure of holding, but right now, he was low on cash. He had enough for a small meal, and his room fee, but not much else. He had been lucky, and scored a paper earlier, and noticed the a few interesting articles in the paper.

Feeling like a walk he decides to go to Domino's pizza place. but first he picks up his phone and dials his friend. "hey man.....yea meet at Domino's......ok cool just the normal stuff" he then hangs up, grabs his overcoat and heads out. On the way out he helps an old lady with her shopping, and she gives him a little money.

    Naze a.k.a Toyminator
    Omni City

    Toyminator listened to Carter for directions on how to get to the location in question.

    "Ok. 4th and Alvarez...near, Domino's pizza..real good pasta bowls, uh..that's 4th Street Thirft shop..nice lady. By bike that's 3 blocks up, 7 blocks left and 2 blocks right. Watch out for the signals." His reply was so fast, that Naze barely had time to blink. Dirk spoke up then. "Cant miss the place..literally. Big PINK sign."

    Carter gave Naze..uh..the Toyminator a big thumbs up, and have Dirk a wink.

    Toyminator stroked the guard covering his chin as he thought for a moment. They didn't have bikes or any other type of transportation, besides their feet. Hmmm, what to do...

    Yuko came in the room then, already in costume as Crispy Chick and promptly announced herself.

    ?Ready when you are Toyminator .? she said.

    Toyminator turned to her and snapped his fingers. "I got it!!" he declared in surprise. "Ok, follow me...."

    Toyminator jogged to where Miguel was working on the locks and spoke to him in spanish.

    <Miguel, it's me, Naze. I'm sorry if this looks really weird to you my friend, I'll explain everything later, but I really need to borrow the keys to your truck. It's VERY IMPORTANT.>

    Miguel gave Naze the once over and seemed somewhat stunned by what he saw, but despite his shock, he handed Toyminator the keys to his truck. Then his gaze fell on Yuko, and a smile came to his face.

    "Buena suerte, señorita." he told Yuko with a polite nod.

    "Gracias.." Naze said, then turned to Yuko.

    "He wishes you good luck. I got the keys to the truck. Let's go..."

    With that, Toyminator ran to Miguel's truck and got in. He cleared the passenger seat from all the tools and other 'junk' and made it half-decent for Yuko to sit in.

    "Get in..." he called out to her as he opened the passenger door.

    Toyminator inserted the key in the ignition and started the engine. He quickly familiarized himself with the dash, steering and breaking system and checked the gas.
    "Half a tank, more than enough!"

    The exhaust spat out some smoke as the engine caught, then it ran smoothly. It seemed that Miguel kept his truck in good running condition.

    "Ready for our first job? nervous?" Toyminator asked as he put on his seat belt and gestured for Yuko to do the same. "A little bit of both, maybe..?" he asked half jokingly.
    "well, ready or not....here we GO!"

    Toyminator stepped on the gas, and with a screech, they were off!

    Croyd was waiting for his friend in Dominoes, he had bought a coke and was currently sipping it his legs shaking uncontrollably when he clutched the side of his mouth, 'Damn that hurts' he thought as his teeth sent strange signals to his brain. He looked up and his mate was there looking at him. Croyd stood up and went to shake his hand.

    His friend gave Croyd something and Croyd offered to buy his friend some food, and gave him most of the money he had on him then went to leave, stepping out onto the road his friend called out to Croyd who didn't hear him or the screeching tyres of the truck that came screaming around the corner colliding with Croyd at full speed. Croyd at the last moment looked at the truck and saw two people in it one dressed in a whole bunch of toys and the other dressed like a Japanese school girl, after seeing this he jumped slightly smashing into the bottom of the window of the truck and becoming stuck slightly in the grill, the hit knocking him out but not killing him. He dropped the little bag his friend gave him and it fell into the drain.

    Toyminator
    Omni City, En route to crime scene

    "SANTA MADRE DE DIOS!!!"

    Toyminator slammed on the brakes and twisted the truck's steering wheel as he attempted to avoid the person who had, of all things, stepped right in front of his speeding truck while he and Yuko rushed to the Thrift Shop, which promised to be their first official case as crime fighters.

    Rubber screeched in protest against asphalt as the truck suddenly decelerated, but not fast enough.

    BAM!

    Toyminator blanched as he heard the impact!

    "Nonononononononomigodomigodomigod....."

    Toyminator jumped out of the truck as soon as it came to a halt and dashed towards the man in half-a-panic!

    "Omigod! I am so sorry, are you Ok? Please be ok! (why is this happening to me???) Do you need a paramedic? Please, don't be dead."

    Toyminator knelt beside the downed man and checked his breathing, and silently prayed to every single saint he knew, that this was not to be the very worst day of his entire existence.

    It would be just his luck that on his first official day as a super hero, he would be found guilty of involuntary vehicular manslaughter on his way to answer a call for help.

    They were on their way to their first job as real superheros, life couldn't get any better... which logically means that things had to get worse.

    BAM!

    Yuko screamed like a little girl as the man ran out in front of the van.

    "Nonononononononomigodomigodomigod....." the chant was coming from the drivers seat as Naze blanched and jumped out of the vehicle as soon as it stopped moving. Yuko tried to exit the van to but for some reason the passenger door handle didn't work. She rolled the window down and reached out. Still the door wouldn't budge. Finally she just said to hell with it and exited the window, Hazards style.

    She came around and tried to assist Naze in helping the man.

    After highlighting a few jobs he knew he could do Croyd decided to grab some food. Feeling like a walk he decides to go to Domino's pizza place. but first he picks up his phone and dials his friend. He then grabs his overcoat and heads out, managing to pick up some spare change on the way.

    Croyd was waiting for his friend in Dominoes, he had bought a coke and was currently sipping it his legs shaking uncontrollably when he clutched the side of his mouth, 'Damn that hurts' he thought as his teeth sent strange signals to his brain.

    His friend gave Croyd something and Croyd offered to buy his friend some food, and gave him most of the money he had on him then went to leave, stepping out onto the road ...


    Toyminator and Yuko hurried to get to the location of their FIRST bit of action, eager to do some work. Toyminator listened to Carter for directions on how to get to the location in question.

    Carter gave Naze..uh..the Toyminator a big thumbs up, and have Dirk a wink.

    Toyminator quickly decided to borrow Miguel's truck, as neither of them had any transportation at the moment. Another something to add to the list of things to deal with. After a bit of quick explanation to Miguel, he quickly handed Naze the keys to the truck, after wishing them good luck.

    With that, Toyminator and Yuko got into the vehicle, and took off for their first assignment, eager to get there and help out with whatever was happening at the location. They were both a bit nervous and ready to go. Following the instructions, they spead out of their place, and headed for the action, the Thrift shop.

    Unfortunally, the action was heading for them as well.

    As they came around a turn, for some strange reason, there was someone in the street, crossing as if he had not a care in the world.

    "SANTA MADRE DE DIOS!!!", Toyminator cried out, as he slammed on the brakes, and twisted the trucks steering wheel hard, trying to avoid the person who for some reason, felt compelled to walk in front of a speeding truck.

    Tires squeeled in protest as the truck vainly tried its best to stop. For his part, Cryod at the very last moment, noticed movement to his side, just to come face to face (Literally) with the speeding vehicle, and its horrified occupants inside. Yuko screamed.

    **WHAM!**

    The world suddenly seemed to move in slow motion, as Croyd saw the people inside of the truck, just as was about to hit him. Somehow, he managed to jump back just enough from becoming road kill of the day, as he smashed into the window of the truck, to only bounce back and falling like a lump of wet potatoes into the street, something flying out of his hand, and dissapearing into the sewage drain.

    Toyminator blanched as he heard the impact!

    "Nonononononononomigodomigodomigod....."

    Toyminator jumped out of the truck as soon as it came to a halt and dashed towards the man in half-a-panic! Yuko, remembering that the door handle didnt quite work well, had to squeeze her way from the truck to catch up to Toyminator, who was busy leaning over the prone figure, babbling like mad, as he tried to see if the man was still alive.

    "Omigod! I am so sorry, are you Ok? Please be ok! Do you need a paramedic? Please, don't be dead." Naze spoke to the figure, as he was checking him out. The guy seemed pretty young, and Naze could at least tell that no bones, or anything else seemed to be sticking out from the man. He was breathing at least. Yuko came around and tried to assist Naze in helping the man. Wait...was he, snoring??

    Cryod meanwhile, lay on his side, probably enjoying some of the best sleep in his life. Being hit by a truck tends to do that for you. Even in his dream state however, he kept seeing the faces of the two in the truck, just before his impromptu nap had begun. He moved slightly, and even looked to be rather relaxed as he layed there. No moaning or groaning.

    No longer playing Corrupt Conductor, have a new character that is GM approved


    Name: Lightning Ghost
    Gender: Male
    Age: 20
    Race: Human
    Appearance: 5'08, 105 lbs. He is a complete weakling. Ultra thin and short, his brown hair is short and close to his head. However, when he becomes determined he gains an aura of confidence that seems to inspire awe in those who can look past the height. Surprisingly, his timid demeanor makes him popular with girls who fancy "cute" things.

    Personality: Timid and unsure of himself out of uniform, when he suits up he becomes a determined fighter who only wants to become better and defeat the enemies of whatever team he is on.
    Bio: At 5'08 and only 105 lbs, Chuck was never a very imposing individual. He spent most of his middle school life being the target of bullies who would take advantage of his lack of confidence and somewhat loner nature to force him to do whatever they wanted. Instead of fighting back, he just took the approach of trying to finish the tasks as quickly as possible. This allowed him to develop at least his legs into peak physical shape for a child of his size. Without even realizing it he could run the 40 in 4.5 yards. It was during a particular chase that he had his accident. His legs couldn't handle the stress and he collapsed. When he woke up he was in a hospital and was told he would need rehab to repair some torn ligaments. This was, however, a front. His father, a very wealthy man, had instead gave the okay for Chuck to be entered in an experiment to create the perfect runner.

    The experiment was a success and Chuck was faster than ever, soon meeting a group of friends at his high school who wanted him to join the football team. At first he was unsure, but the quarterback was a bigger bully than the thugs who used to torment him. As time moved on, he began to love the sport and his teammates became a second family. He would do anything for them, including the harsh training that resulted in his realizing a latent skill that he'd developed from running his tasks. Life would not go smoothly for him, however, as when he tried to enter the world of collegiate sports, the NCAA uncovered the false nature of his legs and banned him from play. Still wanting to make something of his life, and still loving the act of running, Chuck has decided to return to doing tasks. Only this time, as part of a new team, the Omni League.

    INTRODUCING:
    BartSimpson-SithLord (BS-SL)
    Standing on a corner, Omni City


    My my.

    Every had one of those days, where NOTHING seemed to be going right? Well, things certainly seemed that way to Mr. Charles Allen. First, he had woken up late. Much later than he had planned to be up and awake. After all, he had finally decided to try and find the team of superhero's that he had heard about in the papers. But no, his alarm didnt go off as planned...and his breakfast somehow went wrong, burning half of it, as he tried to hurry. His shower was even worse. He was definitely beginning to feel that the fates were working against him this day.

    But you know, its funny how the fates tend to work from time to time. Sometimes, when you think you are having a bad day, you run smack into someone having it worse.

    Its even funnier, when it just happens to be the folks you think you were looking for.

    Charles had been standing at a light, waiting for the light to turn, when he noticed a young man run the light. He barely had time to think, 'That how you get hit..' when..

    *BAM!*

    Charles barely registered the truck speeding around the corner. It had the light...not that it really mattered to the person that bounced off the hood. But what Charles really took notice in, was how the occupants were dressed.

    A reject from a Toy factory, and a Japanese school girl?

    Well, maybe there was some convention in town? But whatever the case, he saw the truck skid to a halt, and its two occupants run over to check on what looked like a quite unconscious person on the ground. Charles mind had enough presence to notice the absence of any major blood spots.

    And he thought HE was having a bad day.

    Somehow, he didnt think these dressed up folks, worked for Miguels'.

    A sound of a skateboard could be heard coming down the street.

    Chuck Allen
    Standing on a corner, Omni City

    For someone who could sprint as fast as Chuck could, he sure was late a lot of the time. It wasn't his fault, he just became absorbed in activities. Sleeping being a favorite of his, especially when he'd stayed up so late reading about this new super team in Omni City. He'd love to join them, do some good for city. He didn't have aspirations of being their teammate, though that would be great, only the manager. He could run errands for them while they were out doing their epic heroics. Ah, he wondered just what kind of people they could possibly be.

    Then he shook his head and slammed the button on the alarm clock. He'd been so engrossed, again, in thinking about this new team that he'd even forgotten the alarm blaring in his ears. Then he noticed the time. He'd forgotten to set it back to when he wanted to get up. Slapping his hand to his face, he hoped he'd have enough time to find the team today. Oh well, he couldn't do anything without breakfast. Yet even that was more than he could handle this morning. Trying to hurry, he'd somehow managed to forget when to cook the toast in relation to the eggs, resulting in burnt toast. He tried to hurry up and shower, but the floor became slick and he began to lose balance. Trying to work his feet fast to find traction, all he did was spread the slickness. Finally, just before he became another statistic in warning about restrooms, he jumped up and caught the sides of the tub with his feet while he grabbed onto the curtain rack with his hands. For a second he'd thought everything was fine until his added weight brought the curtain, and himself, down into the tub. Landing on his back, a jolt of pain shot through him. But at least he was alive. Taking his time, he repaired the curtain and finished his shower.

    What a day.

    The next half hour after he left was spent trying to find these superheroes. He didn't know exactly where to look, and it'd have to be divine intervention for him to find them if they were actually out on a mission. Some higher power would have to guide his actions and practically place him at the right place at the right time. But that couldn't happen, life isn't a story written by a third party. That's why when he stopped at the stop light and saw the man step into the street he didn't think twice to use his newest ability. No, he just simply thought, Well, that's a way to get hit.

    And then the van came, the man went flying, and a really girlish scream erupted from the van.

    Maybe he had used his ability.

    With no time lost, the occupants of the van at least made their way to the injured man...though without any blood Charles didn't know how injured the man was. With that much speed, though, there had to be some kind of injury. The two in the van seemed relatively normal, just a guy dressed in toys and a Japanese schoolgirl, nothing new there.

    Wait, toys and a Japanese schoolgirl, of course those were new. What in the world was going on there? How would those two even meet? Their genres were completely different. One looked ready to hit up San Diego for Comic Con while the other would fit more in LA at Anime Expo.

    Maybe they're the superheroes. he joked to himself. But then the thought really dug deep into his mind. No. Not them. Those weren't superheroes. There was nothing super about them, and they certainly didn't act like heroes. No, that couldn't possibly be them. But still...something didn't seem right about the situation.

    Well, even if they weren't heroes, he still had aspirations to be one in some way. Rushing over to the scene of the accident in nearly impossible time, he skidded to a stop. Alright, you're here. You need to get their attention. You need to step up and see if they need help.

    "U...uh, d-do you n-need any h-help?" he timidly asked.

    Yeah, that'll get their attention.

    Perhaps someone was writing this story. And, with heroes like this, perhaps he had been written into the wrong place at the wrong time.

    IC: Yuko

    Yuko finished her examination of the man that Naze had creamed with the van. There didn?t seem to be any significant injuries to the man, yet he was unconscious. She was about to ask Naze what he thought they should do, when she noticed the attention they were drawing.

    ?Uh this is not good.?

    All the attention was starting to get to her, and the glares were raising her temper. The threat of losing control in front of strangers only added a sense of embarrassment to the emotional mix. ?Calm. Clam down, it was an accident, it was not your fault it was not Naze?s fault it was a freak accident..? Her inner voice did little to help.

    She had almost gotten herself under control?

    "U...uh, d-do you n-need any h-help?"

    The voice was right behind her. She hadn?t noticed anyone approaching and the space had been empty a second before. This is a perfectly acceptable reason to be startled. So naturally her first reaction was a scream of startled surprise and as a result of being startled, all that hard work at bringing herself under control went right out the window.

    Yuko burst into flames.

    The scene looked morbid. A young woman screaming as she burnt. It was the stuff of nightmares, it was the stuff of horror stories, it was the stuff of Buddhist protesters. So when the fires burnt out, thankfully only a few seconds later, everyone expected a horribly burned body to crumple to the ground.

    Nobody expected the half naked Japanese girl, skin miraculously unharmed, to be standing there cupping her ?assets? in an attempt to keep her modesty. Her clothes had been consumed in the conflagration, except for her mask and lower undergarments which seemed to be some sort of flame retardant material.

    A shocked, and slightly annoyed, Yuko turned to the man who had sneaked up on her and in answer to his question she calmly, if a little coldly, replied.

    ?I could use some clothes.?

    Toyminator
    Near 1st and Alvarez Street, Omni City

    Naze a.k.a Toyminator was just having one of those days, or so it seemed.

    What were the chances something like this would happen on their very first superhero assignment? He'd borrowed a truck from a 'friend, and while speeding on the way to a crime scene, struck a jay walking civilian. And even though the victim did not appear dead, it was unclear if he'd sustained any injuries.

    People were gathering all around them and Toyminator was getting a very BAD feeling.

    ?Uh this is not good.? Yuko said, almost speaking his thoughts out loud.

    This was going to turn into a PR fiasco if they remained here a moment longer, but Naze was having a very difficult time deciding what he ought to do. They well couldn't just leave the man on the floor. And what If he was injured? moving him would just aggravate any damage he might have sustained.

    The crowd was getting restless and Naze was about to make a spot decision, when suddenly, Yuko belted out a startled scream and literally burst into FLAMES!!!

    Toyminator wheeled about and drew his trusty Sword of Omens and adopted a fighting stance, but then had to step back due to Yuko's flame burst.

    "Woah!!"

    But as soon as the flames had combusted, they were extinguished, and were Yuko, the Japanese school girl had once was, now stood a rather...uhm....unclad Yuko. It was then that Toyminator also saw the cause for Yuko's sudden conflagration. A man stood a few feet from her.

    "U...uh, d-do you n-need any h-help?" He stammered.

    ?I could use some clothes.? Yuko said, just a tad annoyed.

    Toyminator drew from an incredible reserve of will power and martial discipline not to even glance in Yuko's direction as he spoke.

    "Are you a doctor....?"

    As he waited for a response, he walked towards the truck without looking in Yuko's direction, forced the passenger's door open after several tries.

    "Yuko. Get in..." he said in a protective tone. All the while, he tried not to think of the crime in progress at the Thrift shop. In his mind, the perps were probably already long gone.

    Thanks a bunch Jay Walker.....

    Chuck Allen
    Near 1st and Alvarez Street, Omni City

    The question had been simple enough, he just wanted to offer his help. He hadn't counted on his speed making his approach unnoticed, nor did he really think that they wouldn't be expecting someone to approach them about the accident. But they had been shocked, well, at least the Japanese school girl had been, when she'd heard his timid offer.

    With a startle, Chuck was horrified to see the girl burst into flames. She began screaming in pain and flailing around and there was nothing that the young, timid, football player could do but watch in terrified awe at what was transpiring in front of him. First a traffic accident, now spontaneous combustion. As the flames died down he just hoped that she would be relatively okay. After all, this had to be a superpower of some kind...right?

    As the flames dissipated, Chuck realized he'd been holding his breath the entire time that she was ablaze. He let out the tension once he'd noticed that she remained unburnt. In fact, her skin seemed to not even be singed, it was quite remarkable how not even the skin on her chest...skin...ohmygodshe'snaked Chuck processed before spinning around and facing the opposite direction. What kind of flaming superhero wears clothing that burns? he thought as he felt his face blush.

    He could feel a cold gaze settle on his back before the young girl simply replied in annoyance, ?I could use some clothes.?

    Chuck nodded in agreement, still not looking in her direction. He was about to run off on this errand when the man clad in toys, asked, "Are you a doctor?"

    "Unfortunately, no. But I can run errands!"He announced before running off down the street, keeping pace with himself so as to be fast, but not run out of what little stamina he had. The team was lucky there was a Thrift Shop nearby, and lucky that he had enough money to buy a T-shirt and some shorts. Maybe not high fashion, but it would have to do. It would at least hide the girl's modesty. With determination, he ran towards the Thrift Shop...

    As we last left our heroes, Yuko was finishing her examination of the man that Naze had creamed with the van. There didn?t seem to be any significant injuries to the man, yet he was unconscious. She was about to ask Naze what he thought they should do, when she noticed the attention they were drawing.

    "Uh this is not good." she muttered, possibly the largest understatement of the universe at this moment. It was hard NOT to notice them in the street as they currently were. All the attention was starting to get to her, and the glares were raising her temper. Naze quickly realized that this was going to turn into a PR fiasco if they remained here a moment longer, but Naze was having a very difficult time deciding what he ought to do. They well couldn't just leave the man on the floor. And what If he was injured? moving him would just aggravate any damage he might have sustained. Truly a difficult decision. He was just about to make that decision when fate intervened.

    As Yuko struggled to gain control of her rapidly rising emotions a voice behind her, suddenly spoke up.

    "U...uh, d-do you n-need any h-help?"

    The voice was right behind her. Startled, she gave out a small scream of surprise, and then ...

    She burst into flames. Still screaming, by the way. If she didnt want folks to notice them, that was certainly out of the window by now. Toyminator wheeled about and drew his trusty Sword of Omens and adopted a fighting stance, but then had to step back due to Yuko's flame burst.

    "Woah!!"

    Make that the SECOND understatement of the day. Suddenly the thought of her superhero nickname seemed to make sense. Meanwhile, poor Chuck was still in shock, standing there. The question had been simple enough, he just wanted to offer his help. He hadn't counted on his speed making his approach unnoticed. With a startle, Chuck was horrified to see the girl burst into flames. She began screaming in pain and flailing around and there was nothing that the young, timid, football player could do but watch in terrified awe at what was transpiring in front of him. First a traffic accident, now spontaneous combustion. Simply NOT your normal day. He hoped the girl would be ok...

    And then the flames went away.

    And where Yuko, the Japanese school girl had once was, now stood a rather ... uhm.... unclad Yuko. Her clothes had been consumed in the conflagration, except for her mask and lower undergarments which seemed to be some sort of flame retardant material. She cupped the rest of her 'assets' with her hands.

    *click*

    Its amazing just how many cameras can be found within a block radius.

    Chuck noticed that her skin seemed to not even be singed, it was quite remarkable how not even the skin on her chest...skin... ohmygodshe'snaked! Chuck processed before spinning around and facing the opposite direction. 'What kind of flaming superhero wears clothing that burns?' he thought as he felt his face blush.

    A shocked, and slightly annoyed, Yuko turned to the man who had sneaked up on her and in answer to his question she calmly, if a little coldly, replied.

    "I could use some clothes." Chuck nodded in agreement, still not looking in her direction.

    It was then that Toyminator also saw the cause for Yuko's sudden conflagration. A man stood a few feet from her. Toyminator, being a most sensible person, and one of the utmost decency sort of fellow, drew from an incredible reserve of will power and martial discipline not to even glance in Yuko's direction as he asked the man if he was a doctor. He then continued, "Yuko. Get in..." Toyminator said in a protective tone, as he held open the door of the truck. All the while, he tried not to think of the crime in progress at the Thrift shop.

    Personality: Karen is a whip-smart soccer mom who enjoys raising her children and employing the use of tough love on them when things get out of hand. She is not afraid to insult little league umpires or a bully's parents, and possesses phenomenal multi-tasking skills.

    Bio: Karen had a usual upbringing in upper-middle class suburbia. It was when she got married where things began to get interesting. When out jogging one evening, a thief attempted to steal her jewelry. Putting her hands forward, foam mace shot out of her palms and destroyed the man's eyes. Ever since then, Karen has had a tendency to take a jog around the streets looking for evildoers to use her gifts against.

    Only a couple years after she married her husband and gave birth to their first child, Karen had baked a batch of cookies for her husband's birthday. When he came home from work that evening, he hugged and kissed his wife and child and took a bite. After that, he uttered the words "I slept with my secretary," and the divorce came soon after. Their second child was born seven months later.

    Now with a nine year-old son and seven year-old daughter, Karen's hectic life is full of balancing baseball practices, ballet recitals, PTA meetings, and apprehending convenience store thieves.

    WELCOME! :)

    Darth_Noctis
    Omni City

    Karen Lance was finally catching a break from her exhausting day. She had gotten her two children to school, dealt with several phone calls, and was now trying to grab a few groceries before baseball practice got in her way. She tucked a few loose strands of hair away from her face, as she walked down the street.

    Her car was in the shop. It would be ready in a few hours.

    A few young man whistled at her, as she passed them on the street. She crossed the street, passing this old looking Fire station that looked like it was being renovated into something else. Probably some fancy restaurant, or some silly club. Who knows.

    As she carefully crossed the street, Karen could hear sirens wailing in the background. Sounds like they are pretty close to her. She quickly crosses the street, not wanting to get hit by some vehicle flying around the corner.

    Another siren began to wail, and this one she recognized as the police sirens. My, they seemed busy. And close. Karen was glad her children were safe in school.

    Karen noticed a large dark shadow pass overhead, but when she looked up, she saw nothing. How very strange.

    "Woah!"

    Karen heard the voice, just as it came close to her, and suddenly darted out of her way, as a young boy on a skateboard, shot around her.

    "SORRY MA'AM!" the boy yelled out, as she kicked a foot off, pushing his skateboard down the sidewalk as fast as it would go...
