The Christmass Massacre(Elena)

At 9:00 a.m., the work and lives of a human being starts. This was a Friday, the weekend an impatient forthcoming, and the holiday that would come to be an anxious joy. A holy day for some people and a day of gift giving and drunken parties. For everyone but Otac. That day was the reminder of what had happened to him twelve years ago. A constant reminder of the beginning of his tortures to come at the hands of Cato. The day his parents died and the day his demented mind began to form into the character of Otac. Thomas was his name before. Thomas Phanax. But that was when his mind had decided to create a personality of calmness and insanity. Though he was not insane himself, which he remarked himself as a mad genius, but he was very sane. He just loved to put on a show. The day began slowly but when noon came the work pace and the streets of New York became crowded.


Then the first bombs went off.


The first explosion was at the massive Christmas tree then the second one was under a a chair where a fake Santa would sit in a mall. Then the third and fourth were in Christmas stores and throughout the city places were being robbed by men in Otac Mask's (V for Vendetta). The first national bank however was left untouched until an army of Otac masked men ran through and began to destroy the place. Several sections of the city was in chaos but the rest was left alone. Otac didn't want the entire city in chaos, that would ruin recruiting for new members. The men Otac had were called the "Made men". They were dressed like Santa Claus, with the exception of Otac whom wore a suit, a black cowl, and a fedora with his mask covering his face. He was standing in the center of the chaos in the First World Bank, watching as his men began to take money out of the vault. Trucks began to park outside of the bank, the men loading the money in.

Otac walked to the steps as the men began to drive off. The Police were occupied with the bomb attacks to even notice this robbery. He reached in his coat pocket, taking out a ringing smart phone, and answering it. "Boss," an eager minion spoke in a classic New Yorker accent. "Your a big threat now. The U.S. government has decided to put up a bounty on your head. A hundred thousand dollars to whoever kills Otac. It's insane! But the we're still with ya." Otac grinned behind his mask and hanged up his phone, putting it back where it was. He looked around to see if there was anyone around and with one thought, one mental blast behind him, he crumbled the bank's foundation. He walked down the steps, a car with a gang member at the wheel waiting for Otac to enter. He stopped as the car exploded and was sent flying to the sky and landing hard. He stopped and stared at the beautiful explosion, admiring it for a moment, and then looked around to see who had done such a thing. He stopped looking as he saw a figure walk down the side walk.

"My my... quite the chaos you've conjured up here little one." Elena Vexus said appearing through the smoke and debris from the explosion she just caused. While the gang was taking their time with loading up the truck, Elena ran some explosives under it to get their attention whenever their boss walked out. He was easy to spot out seeing as he was the only one without a cliche Santa outfit on.
"You have caught my attention because you have just attempted to rob one of the banks that I use... Which is a mistake." She said as she continued forward, her heels eerily clicking against the concrete. Since she had his focus, the click would still be heard even with the sirens, screams and panic coming from all around.
"Now since your plan is shot, you have no back up, or anywhere to run.. I suggest you concede, but not to the authorities, heavens no. But allow me to take you into custody..." She said in a sadistic tone.

Otac watched as the other trucks exploded in the distance, the pain of lose for his money, and now he was standing before what he assumed was a citizen. Then he noticed how she talked and walked. An important person walks and talks above all other languages and styles of today. He listened to her offer and smiled at her threat. He began to walk down, clapping, not speaking at all. As soon as he was a few steps away from her he stopped and looked down, ceasing his clapping. "Good show! Good show! You had me thinking that the Millitary actually sent Marines in to kill me. But," He held his hand out and touched her chin, lifting it up some, "You haven't been paying attention to who you are dealing with, have you?" He dropped his hand and with a mental blast he slightly pushed her enough to stumble her back. He wasn't going to kill her, no, he was going to have some fun.

Elena took a couple steps back from the invisible force that had pusher her, which she put a puzzled look on her face about. She was smart enough to know that this was telekinesis, though the man should not have relieved his abilities so early into the conflict.
"The Marines? Please, you would have been blessed if the Marines came to take care of you instead of myself. And with that, no I do not know who I am dealing with and frankly, it does not matter."
Elena pulled all of her hot pink hair back, and then over to her left shoulder before continuing her little speech.
"What you need to be worrying about is how you plan to make it out of this little confrontation alive. Though you're only worth one hundred thousand, I'm sure I could use it to buy myself a new wardrobe. Blood money is good for that..."
Vexus then reached into her purse and pulled on a hand gun that she'd had in a hidden compartment in her bag. She had to play off still that she was just a confident and resourceful civilian, and did not understand the whole world of super powers and what not. Elena fired three shots at the man, making sure to watch every thing he did down to the last detail. She was confident that he had no chance of succeeding here, but underestimating her opponents is not something she did. She would speak as if they had absolutely no hope of winning, but behind the curtain of confidence there hid an extremely cunning and still confident mind of an evil woman.

Otac was impressed with this woman's confidence and bravery. Well, he didn't call it bravery normally, just flat out foolishness. When she pulled a gun out he didn't flinch or was stunned by her action. He merely stood in front of her, waiting for her to shoot. When she did, the bullets slowed down as they approached his head and stopped completely. "Foolishness is the death of mankind." He said, the bullets dropping. He walked towards her, shrinking the gap. Whatever bullets that were headed towards him were stopped in their tracks. He placed his hand on her gun and said. "My dear, you will need to do better than just a gun." He gently launched a mental blast towards her hand with enough force to toss the gun away. "Any other failings to attempt? Please show me how you will kill a man who can left a truck with just a thought?" He said, waiting patiently for her next attack.

Elena's eyes opened wide as she looked in amazement as her bullets had stopped in mid air and dropped to the ground. Pretending to be absolutely dumbfounded, she started to take a step back making it look like she was ridiculously outclassed.
Foolishness is the death of mankind he said to her before he started walking closer to her, her face turning terrified with every step he took. Elena looked paralyzed with fear when he placed his hand on he gun and set it flying without the slightest bit of effort. She watched it as it flew a small distance and land on the ground with a clank. Vexus was looking at it with a face of worry as if her last line of offense had just been taken from her.
"Any other failings to attempt? Please show me how you will kill a man who can lift a trust with just a thought?"
Elena began looking around furiously trying to find something that she could do, anything. She looked him in the eyes, or at least the slits for eyes and put an angry, desperate face on. Then with all of her strength, Elena grabs onto the man's hand that was just on her gun and begins applying more and more pressure.
"Something that'll kill a man you say!? Well how about this one!?!"
Elena's eyes went from their regular violet color to a glowing bright red color.
"I have initiated my self destruct, and in just a few moments you and I shall turn to dust! And there is nothing that your little telekinetic powers can do about it!!Ahhhahahahahahaaaa!!!!"
This, of course, was all a ploy. Elena did not have a self-destruct mechanism, nor would she ever be forced into a corner to even use such a thing. She had already accomplished her goal for the moment, and that was grabbing onto his hand. She just not expected to be violently forced away by a telekinetic attack, which would cause her little to no damage. However, her opponent had already been doomed. While in contact with his hand she injected him with a dose of her neuro-toxin. It shouldn't be too long now before his pair receptors are shut off followed by the rest of his nervous system. The progressive failing of body parts was always amusing to watch for Elena.

Otac had to admit, even this little action that she had done had surprised him. Those two words had changed his mind about this one. Self destruct.
He could feel her grip tighten, the feeling of someone's living skin foreign to him. His heart was racing as he could feel the his end coming slowly. He smiled behind his mask and realized something. If this was the end, he would feel satisfied with all he had done.
With one swift tug, he pulled the woman to him and grabbed her waist, the position they were in seemed like a waltz.
"If you do destroy yourself, which I have a feeling you won't, then I have no regrets." In one desperate and, he had to admit, foolish attempt he pressed his masks lips against hers. But after this awkwardness he placed a strong mental blast between him and her, launching her to the building. He grinned, knowing that he was safe from this blast but he felt weak. He took a step back but stumbled and fell on one knee. He placed his hand on his forehead, not being able to feel his legs.
"What have you done?" He asked, his anger slowly rising.

Elena flew threw the air and braced herself before making contact with the building. There was a loud thud as she made a small crater where she had hit. Vexus pushed herself off and fell to the ground landing on one knee, her opposite hand supporting her and helping her keep her balance as she landed. She stood up and began brushing off some of the dust and debris that had gathered on her clothes and started to make her way over to the failing psychic.
"I have run a neuro-toxin through your blood stream..." she said getting closer and closer.
"Though my poison is much different than what you might expect. Instead of violently destroying your nerve endings, the poison first targets the pain receptors in your brain, and then spreads out eventually blocking off any sense of feeling you may have in your body..."
Elena shifted her path towards the gun that had been knocked out of her hand only moments ago, she bent down and picked it up.
[color]"Now, this is not going to hurt nearly as much as it should..."[/color] she said dusting off the gun and checking to make sure there was still some ammunition left.
"But since the human body needs pain in order to repair itself, the slightest wound could become a potential life threatening situation..."
There was a gun shot, but her masked friend might have only felt a pinch as Vexus fired off into his leg.
"No worries, it's not entirely fatal. I'm just going to wait until you pass out from blood loss... But not to fret, I will be keeping you alive."
Elena found her purse, that she lost flying into the wall and started to shift through it. She found her little make up compact and began reapplying some of her make up and checking to make sure any and all scratches have either healed or were covered up.

'How could I be such a fool?' Otac asked himself mentally as he watched this woman walk towards him, unharmed. He looked up at this....thing...his mind so focused on rage towards her and himself for being fooled by whatever she was. He smiled, not regreting what he had done earlier (both the kiss and the mental blast to the wall), as he was expecting this to be his end. He had a short but good run, creating a gang that would probably die out soon without his leadership, and killing the very man who kidnapped him and forced him to commit raids and robberies with his powers. He was somewhat relieved that she would let him live but had a feeling that she forgot the words "barely" before "alive". He gasped a bit as the bullet entered his leg, the feeling of absent pain sending his heart racing in panic.

In one desperate attempt to stop her from kidnapping him, he lifted his arm up barely and formed his hand into a cup, gripping it slowly. He was focusing individual mental blasts around her neck, putting pressure around it in order to choke her. His hand tightened along with the mental blasts pushing deeper into her neck until the poison in his body hit fully into his nervous system. His arm fell down, the mental blasts vanishing, his body falling to the ground. He chuckled as his body forced him into unconsciousness.

Elena watched and waited patiently for this man's body to give out on him. She could tell already that the poison was rather fast acting today. She did find confusion when he had a smile on his face. 'What is it that he could possibly be smiling about...? she thought, and just to be sure Vexus ran a quick systems check to make sure that he had not tampered with anything. Which he had not, still she wondered what would cause such an emotion at a time like this.
A moment had passed and he could tell that something was going wrong with his body, in the absence of pain his body is reacting abnormally sending him into a bit of a panic. Elena smirked a bit at his discomfort, but quickly lost her enjoyment when she say him starting to raise his arms and feel a pressure encasing her neck. She put her hand up to her throat and touched lightly as if she were wearing a necklace. She winced a little bit as the pressure continued to increase, folds in her skin were starting to appear from all the force. But then, she was released. The poison had worked and he had lost the feeling in his arms. Elena could then see the consciousness fading from his eyes as the blood loss continued. She knelt down next to him and gave him one last smile before he passed out.
"Took long enough, but now time to collect my earnings."
Elena picked up the telepath, and crudely wrapped his wound up. She wanted him to bleed a little longer so that he would stay unconscious for an extended period of time,she just didn't want him to bleed on her clothes. There was also a bag of money that didn't get caught up in the explosions from earlier, so Elena picked it up and swung it over her shoulder and headed back to one of her facilities. When her new lab rat were to awake he would find himself inside a large glass box that had wires running along the outside. Vexus would be typing away on a large computer while several other monitors had information streaming across in German. He would also come to realize that every time he tried to use his powers, there would be a splitting pain that would run back and fourth through the left and right side of his brain.

Otac woke up, his head spinning from the blood lose. He looked around his surroundings, trying to grip what he had just experienced. All he could remember was the kiss, his mental blast towards the woman, and seeing her looking down at him, smiling. He placed his hand on his face, realizing his mask and cowl were removed. He sat up, looking around for his missing face, but with no luck. He looked around at his surroundings, trying to get a grip on why he was here. The minute he saw the woman, he became furious. He placed one mental blast towards her and tried to fire away but instead was given a painful headache. He gripped his head, the painful headache shooting throughout his body for a moment then subsiding. He let go of his brown hair and calmed down, staring at the woman. "What are you going to do?" He asked, curious.


(My original post was destroyed because of my fucking computer......FUCK)

Vexus gave a devilish chuckle as she heard the man awaken. Elena began making her way over to her caged friend, she saw that he tried to attack her with one of his mental blasts, but only to fail. He then proceeded to ask 'What are you going to do...?'. Elena gave a smile, and then moved her bangs out of her face before she spoke.
"My dear telekinetic friend, which such a high brain capacity I thought you might have put up a better challenge. It took quite a bit of poking to get the math right on negating your abilities. In addition to that box you have been administered a special drug that causes a spike on your pain receptors every time there is heightened brain activity. Unfortunately for me though this drug is only temporary so I only had a limited amount of time to do my work. However it does seem to be wearing off rather nicely..."
Vexus was already finished with her tests, this man was knocked out for longer than he knew, which is why she spoke in the past tense. The drug he was given had been much stronger, where whenever he used his powers the pain was so great that it would knock him unconscious again, though she could tell that he did not remember those struggles. Maybe they would come back to him in due time...
"You sir, have quite the interesting past I will say. And that temper of yours... My my." Elena then turned around and started to head back to the computer where she was reviewing her research. She pulled her hair back, and then over her left shoulder as she had done when she first encountered him.
"Just give me a shout when that drug lets up, wouldn't want you getting into trouble again on the streets and your ability not being able to work..."
Vexus has every intention of setting him free, for her though it was a scare tactic. Now he would know who she is and what she is capable of. He probably had friends, and if he was as smart as the tests says he is then he would know better than to try and do anything in retaliation once he was set free.

Otac tapped his fingers as he listened to her. It seemed like he was being impatient but he really was testing the glass. He wasn't listening to her, just doing some multi-tasking with his mind. He was testing the glass, observing the wires, looking up and down at the woman's figure. "I'm glad someone found out what I'm able to do through science but good luck finding out who I am. Not just Otac, that's just the mask, but who I really am." He walked around the glass, dragging his finger across the glass. He stopped and said. "I can tell you are a genius even before you kidnapped me and brought me here. Well, 'bold' would be the better word, but a genius no less." He walked up to the glass between him and her and said. "Was that your first kiss? Or the millionth?" He asked, waiting for a response. He knew it was a childish question but these things were a distraction from the trouble he was in.

"Oh you poor thing, I have no interest in who you are. It was just something to do after I finished my experiments, I know all I need to now. I'm just being kind and allowing you to stay here until the drug I gave you wears off."
Elena kept typing away, making entries about what she found out from her tests. She could hear him on the other side of the room taping on the glass, knowing his powers he would easily be able to break free once the drug wore off. But Elena did say she would be setting him free without struggle, thought what she did not mention is that he will be the one not struggling. Once she noticed that the drug was wearing off she would surge the box with electricity at a high enough voltage to knock him out once again. This way she could transport him back to the outside world without him knowing the location of her lab. Though the question about the kiss rather perplexed her, why would an imprisoned man ask about such minute and insignificant details.
"Hmph.. I should ask you the same thing my friend..." She replied to him without facing him. There was a button on her control center than caused the surge of electricity and Elena made sure to stay within reach of it should the drug wear off without her knowing. Though with him examining the box and the wires he would probably find where all the wires led and catch on to her plan.

"Why...yes...yes it was." He said, taking laps around the box, rubbing his hands together. He had already noticed where the wires went to and what they will do to him but he already had a plan. He rubbed his hands faster, as if he was cold inside the box, and then he began to drag his hand on the glass. Small sparks of static shot from his palm and to the wire, the copper inside the wires shocking him. He was amusing himself until the drug wore off.
"You haven't answered that question. Maybe it's because a single man didn't have the courage to face your beauty?" He looked over towards her, waiting for an answer.
