“The factory is destroyed, but we have no idea where the toys were being sent.†Velocity replied to Daedalus’ communication.

With no one objecting to her plan to search out Emissary, Velocity prepared to take off as she spotted a winged young woman that had arrived. The speedster gave the newcomer a small smile and a wave, and then was gone with a rush of wind and a yellow blur. A few seconds later, she was skidding to a halt near where she had found Emissary. "Hey, good to see you again." She said with a friendly smile. "So where do we want everyone to head off to? Several others are waiting near the main entrance."

Velocity looked back over at Captain Wonder as he provided a translation of what Legionnaire had said, along with the additional information about his background. "Well, I guess that is a good enough apology and excuse." The young speedster replied. She looked back over at Legionnaire. "Sorry for calling you an extra from a period movie." Focusing back on everyone, she then added, "So, shall we go find Emissary so we can get things started? I should be able to find him pretty quick and get back to the rest of you." She said, then muttering slightly added, "and maybe I'll get lucky and meet Bowman coming out of the shower."

Velocity smiled at the Doctor as he apologized for giving unasked for advice and then introduced himself. "That's okay, particularly when the advice is given along with such a nice compliment. It is very nice to meet you Doctor Archerville. Though you seem to already know, I call myself Velocity." "And contacts can be a very good thing. My parents have always stressed the importance of networking."

Nariek, I would point out that a regiment was not a part of the Roman military orginzation. From the time your character is from in your back story, a Legion would have been divided inot Cohorts of 480 infantrymen each, which was further divided into six centuriae of 80 men each. Those were divided into 10 Contubernia of 8 men each.

Velocity had not moved or changed her casual stance in the least as Legionnaire had begun to threaten her, only to be intercepted by Captain Wonder. After all, Legionnaire was all but moving in slow motion in her eyes, and she could have acted in a millisecond to any attack if needed. Wishing she had some idea of what Captain Wonder had said, though the tone sure got a lot of the message across, the teenager looked back over at the other man who had come over and warned her about how she should address this hot head. "No, I would not talk to Centurion that way. But, by the same token, Centurion would have treated me with more respect as well."

"Velocity." The yellow clad speedster replied with a very warm smile and held out her hand. "It is not often one gets to meet a legend Captain." The young speedster then looked over at the man dressed like an ancient Roman soldier and smirked as he asked if she as a fighter and then started laughing. "And where did you come from? The set for Gladiator II? If so, is Russell Crowe in that one? And can you get his autograph for me?"

Megan looked about the small dorm room, not particularly impressed by it. It was tiny, particularly given the fact you would have a roommate. Not that she was really considering Freedom City, but if she did attend here, she rather doubted she would want to stay in the dorms. After all, her parents could easily pay for a much larger, off campus apartment or townhome for her. Focusing back on their tour guide after they were all crowded into the dorm room and he asked what people were thinking of majoring in. She waited until a few others had answered before she added, “Probably economics.â€Â

Well, decided to post without the particulars of what she might know about him :)

As Captain Wonder pushed open the door to Freedom Hall, he felt a rush of wind as a yellow blur speed by him. "Thanks." He heard a female voice say as the figure passed. Velocity sped into the entry way of Freedom Hall, having been something of a regular visitor here over the last couple of months. Looping back around, she sped back to the door, coming to an abrupt halt in front of Captain Wonder. The brunette ponytail of the wig she wore with her costume swished to the side due to the sudden stop as she stood looking up at the legendary hero, her hands clasped behind her as she gave Captain Wonder something of a quizzical look. "Your not quite as tall as I expected. Please do not take this the wrong way, but weren't you dead?"

Yes, the IC does mean the thread is not currently looking for characters. Though, if Markk might be willing to let in others, that is his call. Shazam. What would a Gather Info Check of 23 net for Velocity about Captain Wonder (she has the Well Informed feat to make the roll right away). I am going to post her arriving as you do, once I know what that roll migh have her learn, so I can incorporate that.

I'd be interested in joining in as well, most of my threads have slowed down at the moment.

I don't know yet. I am hoping that it is a good sign as they are trying to contact the references I gave them.

Sorry for the delay from me. Its been a combination of being busy and loosing some of my interest in this site that has keep me from being active.

“The rest of this place is empty.†Velocity commented as she returned to where Raindance was waiting.

I've been really busy with school/RL the last few weeks. BUt yeah, Velocity is a teen hero, but she is a senior at the private high school she goes to in North Bay, and the way time tends to move here, she will be likely graduating soon and heading off to college.

Its okay VM, I have still been really busy myself. Just finished my take home midterm over the weekend. Started a new paper I am handing in today. And then I have a second interview with a mutual fund company this afternoon (and I really, really want this job). Thev :)

After setting off one last sonic boom, Velocity sped out of the hanger just as it collapsed, and looked over at Raindance with a grin. “Well, that’s two hangers down. Shall we see what’s behind door number three?â€Â

Velocity was relieved when the “Robert†before her put down the flashlight and seemed willing to talk things out. When he continued, she listened closely, and was not happy with what she was hearing. She did not even want to think about what the impact of all these people that had been replaced being reveled. “Well, I will have something to say for you just disappearing, and I am sure the Freedom League will as well.†She replied as she started towards the exit to lead Robert back to where she had left Raven. “Do you know why they were having your replace Robert?†She asked, wondering if she should free the real Robert now or wait till Deadalus or someone got down here to see what more he could learn about what was going on.

“Destroy the factory and try to find where they are going. Right, got it.†Velocity replied. She then looked up at Raindance. “It’s about to get loud in here.†She said with a grin. She was then off in a flash, running towards the nearest set of factory equipment. As she drew near, she triggered another sonic boom. By the time it had gone off, she was already well past it and out of the area of effect, ready to set off another near more equipment.

Velocity did not move, but she was ready incase he tried to do anything. She looked over at him, giving him a slightly sympathetic look. “Listen, I am not sure exactly what is going on here, but if you say you were forced to do something, I am sorry you have been put in this position. Let’s just put down that flashlight and make our way back upstairs and get the police in here so things can get all sorted out. Okay?â€Â

I am fine with going on a bit longer, or just moving us on ahead. As for thugs showing up to put us in holding cells, not sure how that would really work. First, wouldn't they need to put everyone in the campus in a holding cell? Something that seems unlikely. And Second, how would there be a holding cell on campus? (or do you just mean put us in a classroom or something?). I think it might be more realisitic to just have the bad guys show up and start causing havoc, going after whatever they are after, and people just scatter in panic. That's just my thought.

You going to want new initiatives Barnum? Or keep the old ones? (or do we even need them yet?)

Megan follows along with the group, listening to Kevin as he talked about being in a fraternity and the liked. Well, let’s not try to play down FC’s party reputation any. She thought, but, it was likely that anyone here that was seriously considering the school was interested in hearing about that. She just followed along, looking around at the campus some as they went, wondering if maybe it would not have been better to have just gone to classes today.
