Not everything you see is the truth. What you see as different we see as normal. Did it even occur to you we were human too? It certainly didn't when it began, the changes. The children born with the not-so-normal abilities. Maybe the house shook when they cried, or the plants withered at their feet.

But the real question is, why did it occur to you? Why did you ever think it was a good idea to send us away to camps full of others like us, to train us as weapons, to treat us like we weren't even human? Well, maybe your camps weren't quite as secure as you thought, and maybe we weren't as obedient as you thought. Your mistake.

The year is 2134, the world has moved on, and so have people. There is a gene, carried by a single parent, that contains the code for an abnormality. At first it was rare, never an issue. The children were taken away to be trained in large camps, far away from their country of origin, and that was that. Then the cases grew and the camps became over-crowded and security began to slip. In one American camp in the state of Georgia had an escape. Six of their strongest residents had executed a perfect escape. And now with the government breathing down their necks they have set out to find them.

The six have made their way to a small town near the camp, and are currently living in an abandoned house. The locals have begun to notice strange occurrences and some of the younger residents have set out to find out who these new people are, and why they are hear.

One of our most recent observations was, aside from the obvious powers, game changing. They cannot lie, about anything. Even the most defiant was unable to tell a lie, even when instructed. This quality only seems to be present in those with powers, and no one with the dormant gene possesses the trait and could lie perfectly.

Abilities manifest between the ages of seven and fourteen, with the more powerful manifesting earlier.

Subjects are given code names, which describe their powers. Most take them as badges of honour, though some turn them away. Certain subjects go only by their code name and allow no one to know their real name.

Seemingly the leader of the escape, this subject has always displayed signs of disobedience and was undergoing physiological evaluation during the event. Her powers include short range teleportation within ten metres, depending if she can see, leaving smoky blue residue as well as flight. Subject CHESHIRE has always been able to avoid questions with riddles and questions of her own, leaving many staff to describe her as 'impertinent and impossible to handle'.

Measures of prevention- a blindfold when in open areas, a tracker bracelet (removed by MAGNET)

One of our most curious inmates, this young man has the ability to freeze people as long as he maintains eye contact, as well being able to poison people provided he can make skin contact. He is a long time associate of CHESHIRE, he is believed to be the second in charge. He has always been violent towards guards and has been in many fights. Often described as 'fierce and unpredictable'.

Measures of prevention- blindfold, skin covered

One of the younger members of the group, MAGNET displays the ability to manipulate metallic materials unless their hands are physically blocked. They have always been docile and has been selected as a candidate for many militaries. However ever since meeting BASILISK and CHESHIRE, subject began to display signs of disobedience, though not to the scale of the other two. Described as 'sweet until offended'.

Methods of prevention- Gloves, preferably rubber.

Subject has heightened senses and reaction times, she can also shift her hands into powerful 'claws' with the same force of a big cat. She has been in the same number of fights as BASILISK and is easily offended. She has a strong caring instinct taking STALLION under her wing and defending him from others. Often described as 'a gem in a hurricane', if calmed down she could become a valuable asset.

Methods of prevention- ear defenders, handcuffs to restrict movement

The youngest member of the group, he has the ability to give others nightmares and make them see there worst fear. He is arguably the most dangerous, and were it not for his youth would be impossible to handle. Shy and rarely seen without LIONESS it is believed he suffers from anxiety, though he has been refused treatment because of his power. No description available from officials.

A charming young lady, literally. Her ability is charm speak, she can convince anyone to do anything for her with only a few words, this only works if the words are heard. She had been assigned a deaf guard. Undoubtedly her danger would double if she could lie, but she cannot. She has been described as 'model', 'should be released', these therapists were fired.

Finally they had done it, succeeded in escape. The planning had taken months, and perfect execution had taken flawless timing. But they had done it, they were safe. For now at least. The small abandoned house on the outside of Cromer had little in the way of security. Little in the way of anything in fact. But they should manage, hopefully. They were after all, powerful and free.

She perched on a railing that was shaking slightly with her every move, but she wasn't scared to fall. Her powers were her insurance. More pressing matters lay in the future. She knew they had to move soon, they would be hunted down. And if they were caught... well she dreaded the outcome. Especially for the younger in their group, if anything happened to them she would hold herself eternally responsible.

The cruel ✘ 27 ✘ with: open

Cursing loudly in Russian, Mira stood by the broken fence. How this was possible was beyond her, but she didn't care. All that really mattered was getting all of them inside these walls and appropriately dealt with. Spitting out more curses as she walked through the snow on the ground, she noticed wiped areas, footsteps gone.

It wasn't surprising really, she had met all of the escapees, and had hated them all. From the aggressive Basilisk, impossible Cheshire and charming tongue of Honey. It irked her no end. And no matter what came her way, she would get them. Even being accompanied by another two guards.

brad
the quarterback | open for interactions
A cold draft assaulted Brad as he stepped outside the house, clad in his overcoat and boots. He wasn't sure where he was going, but he'd deal with that later. To the park, maybe, or the gym. He was feeling lazy today, not up to hard work or exercise, but he did need to keep fit, and it didn't seem likely that he could get his friends together for any kind of sports today.

It was probably the cold, he decided, that was making him feel sluggish. He was warm as one could possibly be when out in the snow like this, but he'd always hated winter. Maybe he'd call somebody later, meet up with a friend. Probably Valentine. Whatever else could be said of his girlfriend, she was filled with energy, and that was just what he needed.

lucian
the outsider | with mira?
Some said he was paranoid, and they were probably right, but one could never be too careful with the powered. He tucked his gloves, blindfold, and earplugs - custom-made with maximum sound attenuation months ago in case of someone like Honey - into his jacket as he padded through the camp in the hopes of finding some clue as to where they'd gone, how they'd pulled this off. He wasn't sure what he was hoping for, but he didn't find it.

Emerging into the snowy, frigid world outside, he saw one of the other guards - Mira - by the fence, now broken. Who'd decided a metal fence was a good idea in a camp with a ferrokinetic prisoner? He shook the thought off and stood beside her, silent. He didn't know her, but he'd seen her around often enough to know that she wasn't the type of person he particularly wanted to engage in conversation with. They would be working together, though, and he wanted to hear her thoughts on this whole thing, if she was willing to share them. She'd worked personally with them, he knew.

full name: carolina
ackerman
age: seventeen
role: honey
with: cheshire

Carrie honestly couldn't believe that she was finally out. She'd been at the camps for so long that it was hard to remember home; it was hard to remember what her parents' faces looked like, for crying out loud! And her twin... She couldn't imagine him as anything but a round-faced ten-year-old (like herself at the time). She hadn't gotten to see him grow and mature. She wondered if they ever thought about her, if they ever talked about her, or if she'd become a forbidden subject. Seven whole years of her life, stolen away- just like going to prison, but for the crime of existing! It was true, a ten-year-old with the power to get what she wanted when she wanted it could have be very dangerous. But there had to have been a better way than pretty much imprisoning her for almost half her life! She was fond of the idea of special schools for people with powers, but... as things stood, that wasn't likely to happen anytime soon.

Carrie realized she'd been standing in a reverie in one of the rooms of the abandoned house. It wasn't in too bad a state; the ceiling wasn't coming down, and the walls were sturdy enough to keep out the weather and hold up the roof. She'd started exploring, but gotten lost in thought when she found a faded picture of a family of four on an old, battered bureau. With a gusty sigh to try and blow off the pain in her heart (it didn't work), she set the picture down and went back down the groaning steps, looking for Chesh. Now that was a mysterious one; Carrie didn't even know Cheshire's real name, and none of the others did, either. She seemed to have an inability to just get to the point, sometimes, and liked to talk in circles and riddles. It could be maddening, and yet Chesh had taken the lead, for she could make detailed and well-thought-out plans at the drop of a hat. As she opened the front door, she spotted the older girl, crouched on top of the railing despite its wobbling and creaking protests, and walked right over to her.

"Heya, Chesh," Carrie said with a grin. "Not worried about falling and breaking your neck?" Of course, someone who could fly probably never really had to worry about such things, but it could happen. Without waiting for a response, she immediately got into why she came out here: further plans. After all, while this was a comparatively nice abandoned house, they couldn't stay here forever, and Carrie for one wanted to make her way back to New York. "I wanted to ask ya, have you thought about what we're going to do from here? We're out, after a beautifully executed escape that we have you to thank for- thank you, by the way!- but now that we're here, we need to worry about the hornet's nest we kicked over back there. By which I mean the staff's probably going to swarm angrily all over the place, looking for us. So..." She leaned casually against one of the posts holding the porch cover up. "Since you're just as sharp as you are beautiful..." She smirked a bit. Chesh had none of that sort of interest in women, but it was true, she was beautiful, and Carrie could always flirt if nothing else! "Have you made any plans? If not, maybe we should call our little group together and decide as a democracy. Unlike the supposed "land of the free" did for us before they imprisoned us. And even if you did make a plan already, I think a briefing would be in order, but it's up to you, o Glorious Leader."
