shieldacademyauThose that sleep will awaken to a pitch black room with nothing but the faint red glow of the emergency lighting. This glow seemed to frame the ceiling of the room and gradually pulsate between a dimmer glow to a glow almost bright enough to read by then back down again. Every electronic device in the entire academy, dorms, and general building on the SHIELD grounds would display a black DOS-like screen with bright crimson lettering that read a simple, cryptic message.
Activating the new message brings up another black screen with a mostly legible message to the students of SHIELD Academy. This ominous message doesn't seem to be salvageable by even the most brilliant of computer programmers. The file is just corrupt and there is nothing that can be done for it. It's a wonder the thing opened at all, to be honest.
Those that didn't sleep would have found the lights had suddenly gone off around 0400. Shortly following the assumed harmless power outage, the usually white glowing strips lining the edges of every room would have faded to a red that indicated a warning. The red lettering on the screens would have followed after that and finally, a good ten minutes into the disquieting silence, the blue message alert appeared. They would have found their doors locked, and the windows all barred by solid adamantium panels.
There is no riddle to be had here, no teacher seems to be present to consult. The students were alone, required to rely on eachother, their own cunning, and their unique abilities.
For those poor souls trapped in the Hazard Room, well... just don't make any sudden movements. The training protocols seem to still be active. Fortunately, they are set on moderate difficulty. You had been looking to hone your skills and blow off a little steam. Well, you just got your wish.
Mod Notes: Treat this post like a mingle-log. OOC plotting can be found here.
Targets and Weaponry: SHIELD bots come in a variety of sizes from no more than a foot in height to nearly four feet and come armed with a plethora of weapons designed to subdue and capture. Weapons designed specifically to counter the abilities of those that live here, just in case they lose control.
Small built-in turrets keep hidden behind sleek panels in the ceilings of most hallways and in the ground outside. These turrets fire wide range of power nullifying munitions as well as good old fashioned taze rounds.
Targeting sensors on all the machines and turrets use facial recognition to identify each student. Their powers and weaknesses are recorded in the main SHIELD database, which it refers to and decides the best course of action.

Teddy Outside | OTA
Date: 2014-08-23 11:02 pm (UTC)He had only meant to go for a quick jog around the campus before he met up with Billy in the Hazard room but his Ipod shuffle mix was so good that he lost track of time. He tugged the earbuds from his ears and moved towards the door, hoping that Billy wasn't too upset with him when a siren sounded.
WARNING: INTRUDER ALERT! SYSTEM LOCKDOWN
A mechanical voice shouted and two red lights appeared on Teddy's chest.
"System lockdown?" he murmured to himself before the world erupted into large fire. Teddy was knocked flat on his back by two large beanbags to the chest. At first Teddy thought he'd been shot but a quick assessment of his chest revealed no blood but, damn, did that hurt.
He pushed himself up on his feet, ignoring the ache in his chest. It was beginning to fade (thanks, crazy alien genetics) and his mind spun. System lockdown - there was some sort of intruder in the school which meant... shit! Billy!
He didn't have time to really think things through as he dodged another round of non-lethal deterrents and he raced to the side of the school, looking for a section of space where he was out of the line of sight.
"Of course it would happen today," Teddy sighed to himself. He left his phone in his room when he left. There was no way of contacting Billy and he only hoped that his boyfriend was all right.

Date: 2014-08-24 07:51 pm (UTC)Prowling the grounds calmed her; she'd started with a simple jog, and a post jog stretch which had evolved into some basic gymnastic moves and before she knew what she was doing she'd backflipped, climbed, swung, leaped and handsprung her way up to the rooftop of the cafeteria.
She'd only just taken a moment to stop and admire the view when the alarm sounded. Noticing the happless jogger below being pelted by beanbags, her mind kicked into overdrive.
The school was on complete lock down which meant surely there'd be similar defenses along the roof, her current location.
Keeping an eye on the student below she began quietly moving among the shadows, trying to reach him without being detected by any roof top security systems. When he reached side of the building Felicia was just above him, only one level above.
All at once she saw another tag gun taking aim at the boy and heard yet another behind her whirring into action. Seeing no alternative she dropped from where she was crouched "Get Down!" she cried, landing painfully on top of the boy but successfully knocking them both out of harm's way- at least for the moment.

Date: 2014-08-25 12:18 am (UTC)Teddy! [Not waiting for an answer, Remy dived into his bag, trying to pull out items he would need. Cards and a set of throwing knives Bella had given him. "Just in case ya find yaself short on cards... or need to make something bleed." Good girl. He quickly pocketed them on his person before kicking the bag out of the way to pick up after this mess was cleared up.]
Who throwin' this party?

Date: 2014-08-26 12:59 pm (UTC)Don't think we were invited. Hey, Remy! Great timing as usual.
[The red lasers swept across the courtyard. Teddy had to lean in close to Remy behind the wall to keep from being shot at again.]
Have you managed to talk to anyone inside? My phone is back in my room.

Danger? What danger?]
Well bonjour there chere, nice to meet ya.
