A brand new group is on the making, The Apostles, a Pillar-like group led by none other than our brand new headmaster, Gregoire Girard. A student body that would lead students and enforce the law on this little school of ours. Little is still known about this student body, but who knows? It might just be what the school needs.

A lunch box is seen last Friday, around 12:37:08pm with an encouraging note packed inside. This appalling display that utterly lacked manliness has left many students stunned and outrage, as some decided, after a long while, to speak out against it.

Time to get serious.
The planning had been complete, all the necessary research and recon had been finished days before. Austin had been meticulously planning this event before his disappearence and had only needed to modify it slightly for things to go smoothly. He had discussed the idea with Macht and now the time to execute was upon Apex.
This would be a risky endeavor, but it would likely net them a large sum of money that the gang needed to bolster it's status and Austin had made sure that the plan was as fool proof as it could possibly be. Unless unknown variables entered the equation, they were golden.
Their target today would be two separate bank trucks, converging on the same intersection. However they would not be simply jacking the trucks out in the open. Instead they would take it to the next level- or sub level, anyways.
Austin's hazel hues watched carefully from the corner of the street, sweeping east and west as he carefully surveyed the target location, a fairly busy intersection about a mile away from down town NYC. Casting a glance toward his watch, Knuckles would smirk. 15 minutes, give or take a few minute or two depending on traffic.
He would back track, moving down thr street before he hit an alley way, moving into the alley, the young outlaw would crouch and heave the rectangular metal grate up and then drop down into a sewer run off. He would proceed to head the direction he came, the run-off branching into a larger subterrianian sewer.
Ignoring the smell, Knuckles would pull on a brown ski-mask before moving toward the location in which the trucks would drop. He was expecting Macht to show up any second and the rest of his crew was already in position. Knuckles would come upon a sewer cross section, whislting to his group that he was back.
Four other Apex Warriors would be present, Macht and Austin made six and there was a spotter sitting on a rooftop, which totalled the heist team at seven. They didn't need more then that. Two sat a good ten yards on both the east and west main run-offs. The other two posted North and south. Knuckles himself resided toward the south, and he expected Macht to the north.
The dull flash of four lights could be seen blinking, RDX used in building demolitions had been set, each one planted on the underside of the street at each intersecting sewer outlet. Austin would hold a detonator in one hand and a walkie-talkie in the other. Each member had one, including Macht. Austin would lift it to his lips and begin speaking.
"Be ready, boys. Showtime in 12 minutes. Just like we planned, no fuck-ups and we'll be rich ass fuck. We csn expect at least a ten minute response time from local PD, the traffic back up will give us plenty of time to scram with the cash. Sit tight, not too long now."

Macht began his trek down through the sewers with his behemoth suit fully equipped. His steps caused the ground beneath him to rumble, showing the sheer mass of what he had on. Unlike the others, he couldn't disguise himself with standard civilian clothing. Instead, he needed to wear something that could properly hide his prosthetics, and what better way to go about that than to dress in a high-tech, full-combat suit? Really, there wasn't any.
"I'm in position," Macht spoke into his built-in radio that was on the same channel as the walkie-talkies. He didn't need the inconvenience of having to carry one of those around. "Drop those bad boys and I'll take it from there."
He was still slightly iffy about the whole thing, but Macht knew they really did have any other options right now. So his best bet was to get in and out of this quick and clean, dropping as few bodies as possible. He knew Knuckles could get carried away at times, but with himself doing the heavy lifting, things were certain to take no wrong turns, so long as no one from Valo's group of heroes showed up to, well... play hero.

Austin had planned carefully, including the use on non-lethal gas to knock out the three-man teams that these trucks had. Unnessicary blood shed was something Knuckles was trying to void. It would bring a whole lot more heat. As soon as he heard Macht chime in, he began to prepare himself. He would walk a few feet toward his right and grab at a napsack. He would then begin to pull own body suit, something he hadn't adorned since the fight with the fight with Shugo and the courtyard against RIOT. Upon [gearing up], Knuckles would pull at his wrist to reveal the time again, grasping the detonator once again as he moved back into position. Once the built in headset in his helmet was connected, he would communicate with the lookout. "Strike team in position. Lemme know when they hit the lights and when they go green. Everyone take cover and prep, we're 8 minutes away."Austin would then flip the button cover on the detonator, trigger finger hovering near the switch. The minutes seemed to pass slow, but it wouldn't be too long now, he had been silently counting the seconds in his head. "Strike team, got a bird's eye view on 'em. Trucks approaching the intersection now. Green in.. 8.. 7.. 6.. 5.. 4.. 3.."Knuckles would smirk beneath his helmet as he counted the last two seconds himself. Without hesitation, he pulled the trigger. Four explosions activated simultaneously, creating a shockwave beneath the ground. A large section of the concrete intersection blew, great rumbling erupted as the section of the roadway dropped, spraying debris about as two armored trucks plummeted down into the sewers, leaving a large section of the road way above missing, as cars screeched to a halt, just barely avoiding being swallowed by the gaping hole. As the cloud of dust and debris cleared, two loud gun-shots wpuld ring out from both the east and west sides of the sewer intersection, twp 7.62x51 steel core rounds would rip through the air from each direction, punching holes into the bullet-proof glass like it was a simple window, and continue through to pierce the backwall and into the money cab. Another set of gunshots would ring out immediantly after, the second round consisted of the same caliber round, however the tips had been replaced with small capsules of a powerful, modified CS-Gas. The gas would erupt inside the trucks. The sounds of lungs being hacked up would be heard, before silence. 20.. 19.. 18.. 17.. 16.. 15.. 14.. 13.. 12.. 11.. 10.. 9.. 8.."7! 6! 5! 4! 3! 2! Go, go, go!"Macht's signal had been given. It was his time to act now. Knuckles would hoof it toward the back end of the first truck, resting toward the left side of the back doors. The two shooters jumped onto to their dirtbikes and the engine roared to life, as they backed them up toqardI the doors. Once Macht was done, they could grab the stash and book it.

Post by Zoe on Oct 8, 2015 17:37:18 GMT -5
The sound of computers beeping and humming softly could be heard as Zoe sat in the Helios control room. She was sitting in a rolling computer chair as her eyes looked up to a large screen in front of her. The display showed a detailed feed of the city from a satellite that had been hacked for their purposes. Zoe was in the middle of setting it up. The satellite was supposed to be set to watch for black mist- but today, it would serve a different purpose. After all, this was the perfect opportunity to test some things out. When the explosions went off at a certain busy intersection, Zoe was able to see the plumes of cloud rising into the air. Her brow arched curiously behind her glasses at the scene. An explosion? That wasn't good... She'd type something rapidly on the computer before standing and pressing onto the side of her glasses- accessing the Hyperion's communication system. ”There's been an explosion downtown. Coordinates are as follow...” She'd continue to speak while entering her room and beginning to change. ”If you're available, I would request that you head that way- but do not engage or make yourself known until we know the situation.”With that, Zoe pulled over her Eletrickery hood and stepped out of her room. Before leaving the control room, she had set the Helios to go hover above the scene of the explosion. It wasn't too far. By now, they've be over it. Of course, their ship would be invisible due to it's camouflage technology. Still, they couldn't get too close to the street due to the tall buildings. So, as Zoe approached one of the hatches to leave the Helios, she attached a cord to her belt. After opening the hatch, she climbed down to begin slowly lowering herself by the cord onto the roof of a tall building directly next to the scene of the explosions. Once there, she unclipped her belt and began to fiddle with a ring under her glove before crouching down to touch her shoes. Zoe approached the edge of the building and then simply stepped off the edge. Or rather, she stepped onto the side of the building. Her jacket shifted as gravity pressed on her. She had magnetized the metal linings inside her boots to walk along the side of the building- clinging to the metal support beams within. Zoe would begin to run down the side of the building as she adjusted the binoculars built into her mask to try and see the scene directly below her. STR: 10 | DEX: 29 | CON: 20 | WIS: 50 | INT: 152
Magnet Ring [1/10] One post for every 15 Int, Zoe may magnetize metals or nonorganic nonconductive materials with metals inside of them by passing electricity through them. She may only magnetize one item at a time, and she must make physical contact with said item. Once magnetized, the item can be controlled and thrown around the battle field by repelling the magnetism from the magnet ring or shot towards other metals to stick to them by increasing the magnetism in that direction. Zoe can only lift things equal or less to her INT, with the stat being treated as the STR of the magnetism and the CON of the item being thrown.

Before the Helios could even get to the area, the trucks would drop to the ground and Knuckles' countdown would finish. By the first time he said "Go!" Macht was already at the doors to the truck on the left. Shoving his prosthetic fist through one, he would rip it off and throw it down the tunnel he just came down from, ushering in one of the men to start taking the money and another to load it up. He would then rip off the door to the second one, and begin handing the money off to Knuckles at high speeds.
By the time Helios would show up, and Zoe would begin her descent, they would have both trucks nearing emptied, and Macht was allowing the men to finish unloading. His ears twitched as he heard the sound of a large, close aircraft, and rose his head, looking toward the sky. His optic implant scanned the area, and he frowned. This wasn't a regular route for planes to take, and for one flying so low, whoever was piloting it was damn good at hiding it. This was cause for concern.
"Eyes on the sky, Skidz," Macht said into the comms before tapping Knuckles on the shoulder. "No way you're deaf to that. We better hurry."

Knuckles indeed heard.something alien to the plan. But for the most part, they were finished, his bag stuffed with as much cash as he could fit. And he assumed it was the same for the others. Knuckles couldn't help but let a chuckle as they finished up.
"Somethin' is up for sure! Some crazy person is.. RUNNING DOWN THE SIDE OF THE BUILDING!? Shoulda let me take a rifle!"
Austin's masked face turned to look at Macht. Of course things wouldn't go exactly like he planned. And now there was a decision to make. Knuckles figured it wasn't the NYPD, because the response time was way too fast.
"Decision time. We can jet, or we can hand our bags off and keep whoever is coming, at bay. We'll get the drop on 'em if we do it right.."
Austin didn't want to make the call on his own. After all, it would be both of them risking their neck. He would continue to contemplate for a few moments, as he moved away from the truck and glared up through the hole in the ground. They were running out of time and they needed to figure it out quickly. He made sure he directed the other crew mwmbers to mount their dirt bikes if they hadn't yet.

"Of course I'll bring you something back to eat. Let me just get this job done. You should really be out here with me, you know, being my partner-in-crimefighting and all."
Valo spoke into his ear piece to Christa. He was on a rooftop, camping out and waiting for a specific target he had been tracking for a while. Red hood up, visor over his eyes, and sleeveless vest, shoulder pads, and gauntlets adorned his upper body, while black pants and boots were what he wore below that. His Thunder's Wrath armor was underneath as an underarmor of sorts to ensure maximum protection. He was zooming in on a building through a window, trying to find the politician he was looking for.
It was then that an explosion had caught him off guard, and he looked behind him into the distance. It sounded like it wasn't that far away... but what could cause something like that? Dropping down from the building via the fire escape, Valo would land in an alleyway, next to his motorcycle. As quickly as he could, he began to drive off in the direction of the explosion, dashing out of the alleyway and into oncoming traffic, carefully navigating around vehicles and people alike. The closer he got to the source, the more people seemed to be panicked.
"Dawn. Remain on standby with the rest of Hyperion to be safe. I don't know what's going on yet."
He drove closer to the scene, his eyes widening as he saw the intersection practically gone. What the hell... He thought. He heard a noise from above, and looked up to see... nothing there. Zooming in on his visor, however, he could see Zoe making her descend down a building. Like... running down it. I got to get me some of that tech she has... seriously.
"Eletrickery. I'm on scene as well. Going to investigate." He dismounted from his motorcycle as he started to approach the hole cautiously.

Macht looked over at Knuckles, then up at the hole above them. They couldn't take many chances. But then, they couldn't just leave the money here like this. Not only would they look like cowards, they'd have done all of this work for no reason. So, they really only had one option.
"Load 'em up and get going on my signal!" Macht shouted to the men in his comms, as he ripped the rest of the money from the vans as quickly as he could manage. The bikes were loaded up and the riders were all set to go. Macht motioned for Knuckles to move to the North tunnel, and he would wait at the South tunnel. Once whatever looming threat there was decided to make its way into the sewer, Macht would signal for the riders to head out.
"This one's on you, brother," Macht whispered to Knuckles, waiting for his comrade to strike. If and when he chose to, Macht would follow in a heartbeat.

That sound- I know it well, An explosion!!
This young female was no stranger to the noise erupted from the near-by intersection, nor from the shockwave it emitted after detonation. She had experience similar situations in Serbia. Whatever had happened, it was definitely not a good sign.
The violet haired girl would begin to move, the black long coat she began to be tugged by the breeze as she found herself running down the street toward the noise. The traffic was building up quick, the sound of horns and people yelling filled the streets.
I cannot ignore it. I have to see what happened!
She would continue runningx stepping on the hood of a car, before leaping up and off it to grab a hold of the top of a passenger bus. The young Serbian girl would pull herself up and move the length of the bus, stopping at the far end, which over looked the chaotic scene ahead. And it seemed she wasn't the only one that was curious either. From her vantage point, she would attempt to peer into the big hole for what had caused this explosion.

Zoe looked down to the smoke and rubble from her position while continuing to run down the side of the building. They had dropped into the sewers below huh? Of course. As she got closer to the ground- now inside the cloud of smoke, Zoe was able to see the massive hole in the ground more clearly. She'd leap off the building and shut off her ring before landing on the sidewalk below. As Valo spoke in her ear, she rolled her eyes. He was going to pansy foot around. These people were extremely violent- and who knew what had happened to the drivers of the vans themselves. Any time wasted would be a mistake. So, while Valo cautiously approached the hole, Zoe practically dived into it- landing on the top of one of the vans below. The girl landed in a crouched position as she studied the area around her and began to prepare her batteries. ”Yo.”STR: 10 | DEX: 29 | CON: 20 | WIS: 50 | INT: 152

Knuckles had quickly taken to the north tunnel, spinning to redirect his vision toward the crash site. The masked outlaw would smirk, though it would remain unseen. Whoever was coming to try and crash their party, was about to regret it. Within moments a smaller figure would drop and land on top of one of the armored trucks. Without hesitation, those powerful legs would kick off and he would slightly higher than the trucks themselves, hands grabbing at the edge of the truck as he bent his legs and thrusted them forward, trying to propell himself into a destructive, duel-footed drop kick with the goal of colliding with her back and rocketing her toward the southern tunnel- Straight toward Macht. Whoever they were, Knuckles could not allow them to get the money back. They needed it to help secure AW's future. To help them grow strong enough to rival that of RIOT and beyond. The Apex Warriors were making a clear and decisive statement: Don't get in the way. [STR - 35(86)|DEX - 32(39)|CON - 35(68)|WIS - 20|INT - 30]

She could hear the sounds of the someone moving on the gravel before the man grabbed onto the edge of armored truck. As the truck swayed gently under the weight of whoever was coming, Zoe quickly prepared herself. She clicked her ankles together as her barrier shot up- catching whatever attack was coming at her. The man would find his legs stopped in the electrical field as they also felt a strange tingle from the electricity. Without any hesitation, the moment she turned, Zoe shifted her finger towards him to let out a blast of lighting from the tips of her hands. ”Big mistake buddy.”STR: 10 | DEX: 29 | CON: 20 | WIS: 50 | INT: 152
Charged Smart Phone By unleashing the charged energy in the phone, Zoe can create a charged field of electricity around her for one post per 20 INT. The field of electricity can stop attacks in their place by zapping them with the electrical field. If someone attempts to physically attack by running through the field, they will have their attacks reflected by the electricity. The field's con is equal to Zoe's INT. By doing this, Zoe can create a barrier of electricity to protect her. The phone does not shock her due to specialized gloves worn during it's usage. Normally, the field is only small enough to protect just herself, but she can extend it's range to allow for a protective barrier at ½ of her INT to protect one other person.
Electric Boogie Zoe is capable of releasing an electrical shock from her fingers by channeling electricity from her charged cellphone. This can be released as a projectile that does ½ of her current INT Damage.

Behind the mask was a expression mixed with noth anger and surprise. Before his hands had even been able to release the edge of the truck, he felt his momentum stop when the figure used some kind of ability. He wasn't about to stay still and become a sitting duck
Flexing those muscular arms, Knuckles would lean backwards and pull his legs up and over and thet would bend as he did. He would find himself rolling backwards into a flip and dropped from the top of the truck, down to the ground as electricity ripped through the air where he had been a moment before.
He would land in a crouch and immediantly push forward, slaming his shoulder into the side of the Armored Truck in attempt to knock it up onto two wheels and then push it over in hopes of completely disrupting Zoe's footing and forcing her to relocate.
It would seem these masked 'heroes' had special abilities of their own. It was likely Knuckles would be forced to use his blood here. However he would wait until he knew he had to for sure.

Zoe crouched down as the truck began to shake while Knuckles tried to knock it on it's side. Well wasn't this dandy? Zoe would move to slide off the truck. She would go down the front of it and slide over the engine piece. As she landed, Zoe glanced at Knuckles and aimed another blast of electricity towards him. Her finger tips would glow brightly in the brief moment before the attack ripped through the air towards him. STR: 10 | DEX: 29 | CON: 20 | WIS: 50 | INT: 152
