[b][i][u]The Ascension[/u][/i][/b]
Las Angeles, CA 0:00
Raze sat alone at a coffee shop. The watcher he had met the day before said to meet here. [b][i]There's no one here... Kids.[/i][/b] just as he thinks this, the watcher teleports into the chair next to him.
"Who are you?" Raze asks defensively.
"I'm Augustine," the watcher stands up. "I have questions for you."
Raze looked uneasy after hearing the name. "Shoot."
"Well, first off. I'm your nephew. My parents were killed by the legion and I need help."
"You've got the wrong guy kid." Raze gets up and starts walking away.
"Wait!" He grabs Raze's shoulder. "I need your help to avenge them. I can't do this alone."
"Get your hand off my shoulder."
"Raze!"
Raze turned quickly and shoved Augustine backwards while drawing his staff.
"I can't help you. I won't! Now back off, kid!"
"Asshole." Augustine teleports back in front of Raze. "Why wont you help me?"
Raze stepped closer to Augustine until their faces were inches apart. "Because, I killed them. All of them."
August stared in disbelief. "No, no that's impossible."
"It's not." Raze begins walking toward August who retreats backwards. "Your father was a coward. He wanted to stop me, but he never had the nerve. Finally he sold me out. Like the cowardice rat he was. He paid for that." Raze chuckles. "Your mother on the other hand. She was brave. Came at me with a knife. I stabbed her with it, twice."
A flood of memories and emotions came over August. He remembered his mother's body. The two knife wounds....
"No!" August screams charging Raze.
Raze swings his staff toward August's legs. August jumps the staff and fly-kicks Raze's chest. Raze steps back and takes another swing. This one hits August's shoulder, leaving a burning wound. August teleports into the air and begins free falling straight towards Raze. Raze lifts the bladed end of his staff, ready to impale August. Moments before impact, August teleports again. This time, he's behind Raze, aiming at him horizontally. All of his downward momentum had been transferred forward after the teleport and he came cascading into Raze.
The pair goes flying through the front window of a coffee shop. They both stagger up to their feet, trying to recover. Sirens can be heard in the distance. Raze mists into a ventilation pipe and disappears. Augustine stood alone for a moment in the wrecked coffee shop before teleporting to a nearby building.
Police cars flooded the scene and officers began investigating the coffee shop.
"Damn..." August mumbles surveying the scene.

-
[i]He sighs while putting his sword on his magnetic holster on his back[/i] [b]Whatever kid, just tell me what's going on, what's with all the police?[/b]
-
He turns around. "A miss understanding, that's all. Apparently family is worth anything nowadays."
-
[b]Family? Wait, is someone down there?! [/b] [i]He puts his hand on his sword while looking at the shattered glass[/i]
-
"Relax, he left. I think." Augustine walks back toward the edge of the building.
-
[b]You think? Look, I'm going to go down there, what's their name?[/b]
-
"His name is Raze. Don't bother bringing him back here." Augustine took a few steps away before teleporting out of sight.
-
[b]Raze? Wait, that sounds familiar[/b] [i]He looks at the police[/i] [b]Well let's help this guy out[/b] [i]He climbs down and runs into the building whispering[/i] [b]Raze! Raze! Where are you?![/b]
-
You here footsteps on the roof, followed by police officers shouting.
-
[b]Crap[/b] [i]He gets outside and climbs up drawing his sword[/i]
-
He's sees the back of a man wearing a black trenchcoat jump off of the building as the cops start walking into the coffee shop below you.
-
[b]Hey! Raze!![/b] [i]He yells while chasing the man[/i]
-
The man stops in an alley and turns around drawing his glowing sword.

Edited by oCharlemagne: 12/9/2015 12:21:46 AM[i]He remembers Raze from 15 years ago[/i] [b]Raze?! Is that you?! [/b] [i]He yells while his sword transforms and the blade starts to glow[/i]
-
"Xeno. Stay out of this." His voice was cold and harsh. Different than the Raze you used to know. He began walking away, sword still drawn.
-
[i]He whispers to himself[/i] [b]Like hell I am.[/b] [i]He then yells[/i] [b]Raze, what's going on?! Who was that?![/b]
-
He ignores you and continues walking away.
-
[b]Raze! If you don't answer me you'll regret it![/b]
-
Raze stops walking. He snickers and sheathes his sword. Next, he turns around slowly and draws his staff.
-
[b]Really? If this is how you greet an old friend, well that's not very nice[/b] [i]He sheathes his sword and then draws another one, this one metallic and not plasma but something seems strange about it[/i] [b]Alright then, let's see how this works out for one of us[/b]
-
Raze smiles, "this isn't a greeting, its a massacre if you don't back off." The staff hums with energy as a plasma blade forms on the end.
-
[i]He looks at his sword and puts it back on one of the many magnetic holsters on his back[/i] [b]Raze, look, I want to help, it doesn't matter what I help with. What matters is that I help an old friend. So how about you put that away? [/b]
-
He sighs. "I don't want or need help." He holsters the staff. "Your a good man, Xeno. I'd recommend staying away from people like me." He mists and drifts away out of sight and your left alone in the alley.
-
[b]And you think I care?[/b] [i]He whispers to himself[/i]
