Sleestak Lightning

"Badb, inside voice," Will muttered under his breath, slinking around to one side of the entryway. That way, when "Tereza" left the plane, she'd be surrounded, no matter which Tereza it was.

by **Haley Crusek** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 12:51 am

Haley walked into the hangar still zipping up her uniform, a cough drop rattling around in her mouth loudly.

She had gotten an alert on her phone from as the plane was incoming, and figured she might as well be ready for anything. She wasn't ready for seeing two copies of her good friend walking off the plane. She slowed her approach to a stop and then crunched the rest of the cough drop.

"What in the hell..."

"Just... shut up! Neither of you feel right..."

by **Chase Delacroix** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 12:54 am

Chase had the same idea as Will, covering the other side.

"I'd love an easy solution to this guys."

by **Toshiro Narumi** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:00 am

"Yeah... one of them is probably an alien," Tosh told Haley.

"Right! Unless this is an absurd coincidence the fake has green blood!" he exclaimed.

"I swear if someone sticks me with a needle, I'm going to force feed it to them," the Tereza on the ramp says. "She injected me with something that dampened my powers." She starts walking down the ramp, leaving the other Tereza where she is.

by **Haley Crusek** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:05 am

Haley cracked her neck and her knuckles, standing her ground her sharkboyfriend for now.

"'Reza maybe you should stay where you are until we sort this out." Haley cautioned, her voice still a bit raspy.

by **Business Mandy** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:06 am

"Yeah, don't buy her shit! She's some kind of weirdo thing pretending to be me!"

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:07 am

"Tereza. Uh, Terezas. Stay...stay where you are. I'm going to enter the jet now. Alright?"

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:10 am

"I have been beaten up, drugged, had to fight my way free through this witch," she points at the other Tereza, "and my bitch of a sister. I am so not in the mood for this right now." Her irises wash to yellow.

by **Chase Delacroix** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:14 am

"Shifters can't fake ice powers," Chase pointed out. Leave it to science types to overlook the obvious. "Just armor up."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:14 am

"You didn't even tell me where you were going!"

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:20 am

"Whether you're in the mood or not really...doesn't matter right now!" Will said, cautiously approaching,

Tereza was getting yelled at from multiple directions. That's gotta be great for one's mental state!

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:26 am

She eyes Will as he approaches and her bones crack and begin to lengthen. "Back off, Will. My mood matters a lot right now." All this is sort of distracting her from Sam.

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:29 am

Will stopped, halfway up the ramp, arms outstretched.

by **Business Mandy** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:33 am

"What are you waiting for!" Tereza shouts at them, straining against her bonds as she tries to get out of the seat in spite of them.

by **Haley Crusek** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:35 am

"I think both of you need to stay where you are," Haley barked reaching out with her telekinesis to try to restrain both Terezas in place.

by **Chase Delacroix** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:37 am

Chase quietly climbed up onto the ramp and slipped into the jet, heading for the equipment lockers where he had stored some arrows during the last mission. He grabbed a standard one and approached the other Tereza.

by **Business Mandy** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:49 am

"Hey, hey, what the fuck do you think you're doing with that!?"

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:52 am

As Haley's telekinesis clamps down on her, Tereza's mind flares with pain. The metal under Tereza's feet begins to rime over with a coating of frost. Haley can feel Tereza's body fighting against her telekinesis, trying to shift despite the restraint.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:53 am

"Will, these... things. Can they copy powers too?"

by **Haley Crusek** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 1:57 am

Haley narrowed her eyes in focus, trying to maintain a strong though not painful grip on the Terezas.

by **Chase Delacroix** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 2:01 am

"If you're the real one then I'm sorry for this," he said, preparing to quickly cut the second Tereza across the hand.

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 2:03 am

Samantha McManus wrote:"Will, these... things. Can they copy powers too?"

"Generally, no, but I wouldn't bet my life on it. Nor on blood, for that matter."

by **Business Mandy** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 2:06 am

"Fuck you too!" she snarls as Chase cuts her hand and red blood spills out. She balls her hand into a fist and glares, but it seems like she wasn't quite fast enough and a couple drops fall down onto the deck of the plane where the red slowly fades into green.

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 2:28 am

Will saw that, and rushed in, rather rudely and abruptly dashing past Tereza.

"Tereza, on the other hand, doesn't have such a lovely shade of emerald for her blood," he shouted, coming in to support Chase.

by **Business Mandy** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 2:34 am

"Aren't you just a frikkin' genius." 'Tereza' growls at him as she shifts into a fairly ordinary-looking woman, wearing a business suit.

by **Haley Crusek** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 2:36 am

Haley tightened her grip on the false Tereza as she shifted into something else and released the real one.

"Sorry 'Reza," she called out hoarsely.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 2:36 am

"You... you..."

Sam grits her teeth.

"You don't get away with that..."

And with that, she tries her damnedest to scream pain into the mind of the doppelganger.

Business Mandy wrote:"Aren't you just a frikkin' genius." 'Tereza' growls at him as she shifts into a fairly ordinary-looking woman, wearing a business suit.

"No, I'm just not a terrible shapeshifter" Will quipped, which would probably be lost on Mandy if Sam succeeded in blasting her brain.

by **Business Mandy** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 2:42 am

The woman shoots Will a withering glare before hear brain is speared by anger and she screams out in pain. When she manages to form coherent words again her focus is understandably a bit shifted.

"Bar'dorhm! Call your fucking overambitious monkey off!" she yells as she strains against her bonds once more.

by **Haley Crusek** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 2:49 am

Mandy's struggle just made Haley squeeze even tighter with her TK. She wasn't going to lose any sleep over a cracked rib from some shapeshifting alien.

"Stop squirming."

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 2:49 am

Tereza kneels on the ramp, breathing heavily and trying to collect herself as her bones try to work themselves back into their proper shapes.

by **Will Stanton** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 2:52 am

"Sam!" Will shouted, not caring that it was right in Mandy's ear -- hey, her problem for having ears, right? "Enough!"

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 2:53 am

"Is it? I don't think she regrets what she's done yet..."

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 2:58 am

Tereza lets out a low growl, "If you melt her brain, then all my time was wasted."

by **Toshiro Narumi** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 2:14 pm

"She's right Sam. We need her... it's?... mind intact if we're going to get ahead of this. This is actually a lucky break," Tosh said as he joined them.

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 6:07 pm

"...fine," she sighs, relenting.

by **Tereza Rozanov** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 6:24 pm

Tereza lets out a sigh of relief and her leg muscles relax now that she's not contemplating tackling Sam to get her to stop. She straightens up slowly and looks at X-23, "My sister left some dents around the tail. Sorry about that."

by **Samantha McManus** » Mon Mar 27, 2017 6:42 pm

"...we'll talk later," Sam huffs, turning to exit the hangar.
