I'm sorry for the impromptu hiatus, I've had trouble with my computer and internet so I'm only now able to run this again.
Never wanted you guys to think this died or anything, in fact with the absence, I've gotten more ideas for this...

So, without further ado. The story of Omar Denis Continues!

The Story of Omar Denis Continues! I apologize for the bit of Hiatus, I had to fix up some details. It's true what they say, starting a quest thread is easy, carrying it on is what begins to get more difficult! However this is interesting...

Previous threads can be found here:
http://suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive.html?tags=Overhuman

You control the fate of an invoker named Omar Denis.

After losing his parents due to circumstances beyond his control, Omar unlocked his latent potential as an Overhuman.
Recruited by a mysterious woman in black, known as "Fauna," he entered into an organization known as "Renaissance."
During the training of his powers, he absorbed the legend of the phoenix and shot up in danger levels among the organization, tested in the desert, he was allowed to live..
Having recently forgiven Renaissance's missteppings, Omar seeks to change this organization from within!

Last time: Omar had a risky encounter with Violet that ended abruptly after Katie calling him in his room. With the distraction out of the way, Omar meets Katie at the sparring sands and she aids in the making of his memento: A red glass Phoenix with his mother's ashes mixed into the form.

Last time:
We learn of the nature of Renaissance as a company that not only deploys Overs, but researches their powers as well. Omar has been under surveillance in the use of his powers from day one.

However, rejecting his position as a lab rat and all the more as a mercenary he breaks away from Lock, Elizabeth, Kill, and Wallie to think.

Calling on Katie, he finds her disposition has changed greatly, and can only think of one person responsible...

Violet.

"Katie, could you look up Violet's profile. Do you see the part where it says 'thought implantation'?

You've met me, I'm about as subtle as someone putting a brick in a sock and hitting you with it. My powers consist of hitting you with sea-life inspired clubs and setting myself on fire. Do you really think I could pull off anything that complicated?"

I see her eyes shift, and she moves her hand to another part of the screen. At first, I think she's going to hang up on me, but she stays on the line,"I... I really want to... I want to believe you.." I hear her mumble under her breath.

I don't say anything more, I can't aggravate this..

After a few moments of watching her eyes reading something on the screen, she sighs.

"I... I guess you're telling the truth..." She looks away from the screen again, appearing to almost pout.

"I wouldn't lie to you Katie..."

Her eyes shift back and she frowns again, her mouth slightly open in a mild scowl,"I still... I'm not happy right now... I'm especially not happy with you... Though I guedd it's because of this magic or whatver...

Leave me alone for a bit, I'll see what I can do, ok? Jus... Just wait...

[X] Find Violet, I need to confront her about this.

We need to nip this in the bud.
>>
In my seething frustration, I need no time to think about what to do about this bullshit that Violet's pulled, I'm going to find her, I'm going to find her and... and... I'm not sure yet what I'll do when I find her, but I'll get to that. I feel my body's burning sensation as my anger nearly gets out of hand, one part of me would definitely like to burn that pale thin neck of hers as I squeeze my grip around her throat... But I'm not sure of the reprucussions to that.. Then again, what would happen to her if I reported this? Whatever it is, it wouldn't be good enough for that bitch.

Walking away from the console, I set to locating her.

Where do I look first?

It's just after lunch..

>[] Her room, I know she takes meals there...
>[] The training sands, I haven't seen her there before, but she got Katie, and Katie's almost always there.

Upon leaving the cafeteria, I stay my ground for a moment to calm down... For all I know, this could be some kind of trap set up by her.. I don't have any idea what she's planning, but she's obviously got some kind of agenda. I'm upset, angry still.. But I'll go about this with reason. I walk to the console at the entrance to the Evoker hallway and put in her name.

The phone rings once as she picks up, she was expecting this.

I see her on the feed, her bangs have been curled and she wears a coy, pouty expression as if she's a child that's been caught being bad.

Looking at her chest, I notice that she's only wearing a black lace bra, and in the background, I see the familiar stuffed animals of her room.

She's in her room.

Her purple eyes regard me almost gently," Ohhh, look who it is! Omar, calling on this little Violet? Whatever can I do for you?"

She's acting like a child again.. it's pissing me off a bit, but I maintain my calm, though I can feel myself glower at her through the feed.

Violet's pout fades and her expression grows sharp and serious.

"Very well then Omar. Meet me at the training sands..."

"Not your roo-" The feed cuts off.

Well, that apparently got her sober.. I wonder why she said the training sands... Now that I think on it, I never see her there.

"Appetite" 14/25

I don't entirely trust her yet, so I begin taking in some of the flow to steel myself against her assault, organizing my thoughts and focusing on my objective. I won't be swayed in this confrontation, I won't let her control me.

It takes some time to get to the training sands.

I notice the halls are much more desolate than usual and upon my entry, I don't see anyone in the grounds.. I have an eerie feeling about this.. the place has never been empty before..

Appetite 13/25

I remain calm and take a seat on one of the benches. I've felt her assault before, and I realize that I need to ignore my emotions in dealing with this.. For all I know, they're not even mine... She's broken my resistance before after all...

I wait pariently and keep myself easy, I figure she must have cleared this place out.. but when?

Suddenly, I hear footsteps on the metal floors near the entryway. I hear two pairs. Turning, I see Katie, still with a somber, kind of gloomy expression, and Violet, her expression still as stark and intense as before.

Springing to my feet, I feel my anger surge a moment before undermining it.

Why did she bring Katie?

>[] I'll ignore the fact that she brought Katie here... Keep myself in check and offer a seat.

Appetite 12.5/25

"Violet, Katie, good to see the both of you. Violet, I believe you owe the both of us an explanation, please... Take a seat."

As Violet gets closer, she flips her curled hair as Katie regards me and then looks away.

"Why, I certainly do. Glad you decided to ask about the point. Sure took you a bit from my roundabout way." Her tone is condescending.. in a way. Her eyes aren't glowing, and her expression maintains the prior sharpness.

"Well," I beckon them to sit once more, "Let's fucking have it!"

Katie tentatively takes a seat, stealing a sideways glance at me before looking away again. Violet sits between us, though I keep myself 2 people away, watching her carefully with my resistance still up.

She doesn't seem to notice, or more rightly, doesn't care about my spacing.

"Well, to start... As you want to know what this is about... I want out of here."

"Out of here? Out of Renaissance?"

Violet gives a slight nod," Yes, yes. Out of this controlling, ridiculous thing that calls us lab rats, mercenaries, employees."

"And what does Katie have to do with this? Why me?"

"Ahhh, there's the thing, the rub. You need me as much as I need you. . . And Katie needs you too."

I hear a bit of a sound from the oddly quiet Katie as Violet says her name, but a sharp glance and a flicker of purple, and she's quiet.


>[] Stop doing that...

>[] What does Katie have to do with this? She needs me?

>[] I've had enough of Violet's shit... Time to burn the witch.

>[] Write in.

It's related to power use in that to shift, reinforce, or quicken, he needs to "feed"

When he's "Lost his appetite," he's beyond the realm of safety in using his power.

In other words, it's the point that his body starts to break down from overuse, converting the flow gets fucked up, etc.

I'm pretty sure most of us want to break out of here eventually, but I don't think many of us agree with Violet's methods. Quite frankly, she doesn't seem to have the mind for large-scale or long-term planning. Then again, neither does Omar... In fact it seems like long term planning is actively discouraged at this facility, they foster impulsiveness with the self contained economy they've set up here.
>>
>>23535216

It's going down because you guys decided to put up resistance to Violet's evocation.

As a second action you guys can opt to shut it off, but Violet will see.
>>
>>23535259
>As a second action you guys can opt to shut it off,

Would it be possible to try and do some sort of recycling?

Somehow take any remains of our power usage, if any, and turn that into new power?

While I do like the idea of just murdering Violet (I really fucking do), she may legitimately have some points here about why we should team up.

I'll give her a chance to make her case.

"Stop doing that, I told you, no mindfuckery, and we talk."

"Why does it matter? You're putting up a resistance to it, and Katie wants to be quiet..." Violet shifts her gaze over to Katie, "Isn't that right?"

Katie nods, looking away again.

"Violet.. This isn't what I agreed to."

With a haughty roll of her eyes, she concedes," Very well." She closes her eyes.

Katie still doesn't speak, yet I go on.

"Why do I need you? Why does Katie need me? Why do you need me?"

"Full of questions, hm? Here's something.. During one of the times that you were put into a certain... lack of consciousness... You had a little operation... There's a chip at the base of your brain stem that will not only track you via satellite, but deliver enough of a self detonation that it'll render even you catatonic."

I feel a chill through my body. That would explain why they trust us to go on missions, why no one wants to leave but.. "Why have I not been told this?"

"Because, my dear, dear Omar..." Her eyes remain closed, and her expression is flat, not matching her voice," They figure if you chose betrayal, you don't deserve a second chance. Such is the nature of how much Renaissance fears us."

"And how does.. this involve me?"

She finally smiles," Because there's a way to deactivate the chips... I need to get the resident Supervisor under my control. He's imbued his soul into the chips, and just the same, I can use him to destroy them.. It's the reason why no one can do anything about it."

"And Katie?"

Katie finally speaks up, Violet's eyes remain closed," I.. I want to leave too.."

"K-Katie?"

She nods," I want to leave.. The... the other me that you know.. They made Violet do that to me... She undid it so that I can talk to you, for real.. It hurts.. All this bullshit.." Katie begins to start crying," It really hurts Omar.. I want to stop, there's nothing fun about this."

For an evolution shift, it costs 5
For a concept shift, it costs 2 +1 per post.
For Reinforcement it costs 2+ 2 per post
For Quickening it costs 3 for the post that it's used.
To acquire a new form, it costs anywhere from 5-15'

For Phoenix, it's been acquired and it's an evo shift to get into, and concept upkeep.

I'll help Violet, I may not like her, but she's my ticket out of here...

"I'll help you."

Violet opens her eyes and stares at me deeply, as if she's witnessing me for the first time," Excellent, the-"

"I expect that you stop manipulating allies though, rest of the people, I could care less.. Stay out of my mind, and if Katie asks you to, hers as well."

"My, my, you speak as though I can read thoughts... While... I can sense your emotion through the flow... Reading is better done by an animist. And I don't go in anyone's mind, my dear Omar..."

"Whatever, just stop trying to control us."

"As you like it."

"What do you want me to do? And how is the chip even still intact with what I've done?"

"Well, Omar.. that''s why I'm interested in you... With that power of yours, you should be able to resist the chip to some degree... however it should be in tact due to the Supervisor's small possession. As I stated before."

"Are you saying.. that he's an Over?"

Violet gives a roll of her eyes," Could've been smarter, yes, he could've been smarter."

"Ok, that's rude."

"Well, sorry..." She resumes her normal playful posturing."

"As for what I want you to do, I want you to create a spectactle. You'll need to go on something of a rampage, enough that the supervisor steps in. That burning form of yours should do the trick.. However, I should warn you.. Most of the other Overs here are quite comfortable... I've heard of the loss of your moth-

"Don't you dare bring her into this," I say as I clutch the ash-pendant around my neck.

"Very well. Though, I figure yoy'd have no love for this place either.

"And you?"

Violet rises, brushing her dress down as she bends over and stares deeply into my eyes," Why, I'm sick of being controlled." She begins to walk away before stopping abruptly, my eyes had been following her and only now do I notice Katie staring at me.

"Omar, would you like to get to know the real Katie? Or is the happy one what you want?"

"I'd like to know the real Katie..."

I decide to take the risk, and stop my feed to resist her powers. To trust her as much to test her.

Violet raises an eyebrow at this, yet I continue.

"However, the choice is hers."

I look to Katie and she wipes her face with one of her short sleeves, regarding me sadly with her green eyes, frowning slightly.," You leave it up to me... Heh.. I..." She looks to Violet," I don't want him to know the real me yet."

I'm taken aback a bit," Wh-"

"You don't know the real me, and you shouldn't. I didn't lie before, about what I came from before coming here.. There's too much of that in this... In the real me. And I need to be the happy little test-taker for Renaissance or they'll think that Violet went against her orders."

"I... I see..." She really thought this through... In the same light, it seems she's serious about getting out of Renaissance.

"Ready now Katie?" Violet locks her eyes on the redheaded girl sitting on the bench... The one I don't really know...

She nods, and stares back at Violet, that purple glow returning.

"Look into my eyes.. You're getting sleepy... Sleepy... To the border of your consciousness.. You see a girl there. Her smile is brighter than yours... You will wear her smile.. You will feel her joy... You will don her outlook, that life is a game. You are that joyous little girl that you want to be." Violet's eyes stop glowing at the end, and Katie's smile returns.

With a swift grab of my mutated hand, she says,"Omar, It's ok, I'll show you in the future, do you want to play with me?" That bright smile I remember has returned.. however it seems so.. strange now...

"Viole-"

"I'll speak with you later, Breakfast tomorrow..." She heads for the entryway.

"Oh, and Omar..." She turns from the doorway of the chamber. " If you cross me, the last thing I'll do is break you..."

She's gone.

Play with Katie, we need to get better before this shit goes down. We should also probably talk to fauna about what shes thinks as she is the only one that can kill us.
But first, fight Katie so she knows taht we don't think different of her
>>
>>23536404
What she thinks of the company. Gotta be subtle.
>>
>>23536412
Actually, that may be a good distraction. Ask to spar with her, have it 'accidentally' get out of hand, and they company will think nothing of it.
Still ask her what she thinks of the company first though
>>
>>23536422
wait, did Violet want us to start the comotion now? i think we should get some food first and refil our power points, but this could be a good way of starting it when the time comes

Because stereotypical Geography teachers wear tweed.
>>
With Violet gone, I decide that I should humor Katie with a spar... To show her I don't think any differently of her.. However on the inside, I can't help but feel that it's wrong somehow.. and I can't shake what I know about the state of her body literally being held together with her soul... It makes me spite this place all the more.

We clash in the sands as some other Overs come in and the overall activity in the training sands resumes.

Katie's armor is much thicker and resilient this time, however I've gained some prowess at reinforcement, enough to not feel her attacks all that much, however I'm unable to damage her beyond anything superficial. I feel like I'm unconsciously holding back, then again, she might too.


Our match ends with sleight of hand as she forces me off of my feet with sand and pins me under her weight, but more, locking me with her power.

On top of me, Katie laughs cheerfully as the sand on her body melts away, slipping down our forms and into the rest of the field.

Her green eyes lock onto my brown eyes and she seems to have gotten some kind of an idea. She leans down to plant her lips onto mine...

Appetite 5/25

(I've gotten a bit better at fighting animists, Katie controls her own body as much as her environment, I've become more mindful of this. Should I fight an Animist, I'll pay close attention to their medium and my surroundings.

I'm also still struggling a bit with Reinforcement... it seems that it's my shortcoming.. My right arm still won't go all the way back to normal..)

Yeah, this isn't really her. Too weird to get a kiss.
>>
I lay still and feel her lips press against mine gingerly, I return, though something in me does feel that it's a bit wrong.. She pulls back and gets off me, getting back onto her feet with a bit of a twirl.

"Omar, Omar..." She says my name with a slight giggle.

I get up and she closes in on my, grabbing my hands and looking into my eyes again, I want to tell her to stop...

"It's okay silly.. I'm still in here, this... this is still me. I know you feel weird about this... But.. Don't worry, okay?"

"How... How do you know about how I feel?"

Closing one eye for an extended wink she laughs at me again," Don't you listen? Animists can sense how people feel."

"Ah... R-right..."

Is there anything I'd like to ask her?

>[] No, I need to talk to Fauna now.

>>
"Right... Well, I've got to be going. I need to speak with someone."

As I begin to leave, Katie grips my hand tightly.
"Don't get them. Whoever it is. We can't trust anyone right now." Katie's voice is a singsong as she gives her grim warning. I only feel all the more unsettled by this version of her....

"R-right... It's just some basic stuff... like about my arm here.. that you're holding.

"Nothing wrong with it... It's just a bit shelled up, hm? " She giggles and lets go.

"Take care now Omar."

I bid her the same and take my leave to see Fauna.

Once out of the training sands, I realize that i'm not even sure whether she's returned from her mission yet.. Hell, she's always been the one to find me after all... I wonder if she'd even want to talk to me...

Now that I think about it, I wonder if she knows about the chip... and why... why did she tell me to hide my ability to evolve?

From the training sands, I head to the nearest console, which is in the hallway that leads to the Butterfly chamber/ water strider room, and one that I'm not really sure what the symbol is...

I put in Fauna's name on the console and it rings. It keeps ringing and right when I'm ready to give up on the seventh, I see Fauna's masked form on the video feed.

For a moment I'm speechless, as I kind of didn't expect her to pick up, my words hang in my chest long enough for her to lose patience.

"Not even going to say hello? It's been a minute, you freaking shit," She sounds almost amiable... "I heard you fucked yourself up after I left. At least you didn't cost me any more creds. What do you want?"

Uhh... Yeah... Right... What did I call her for?

I raise my mutated right hand, I've noted that it functions perfectly as a human hand.. however its appearance is obviously strange, alien... it's been bothering me a bit.

"I wanted to ask you about this, it's stuck like this, I can't make it normal anymore."

Fauna is silent for a moment.

"Such is the nature of shifting like this. You'll need to find some rea- Actually.... Just come to my room, we'll talk here."

"What were you going to say?"

"Nothing, just come to my room okay? I'll be able to help you with that bullshit a lot better here."

"Well, where is your room?"

"I'm in the northern wing of the facility. My quarters are officer-quarters, unlike scrub quarters like you and the rest of your lot. Takes massive credits, and a bunch of high-rank missions. Anyway, get her ass moving. I'll give you clearance."

I hadn't even known of the Officer Wing... that would explain why I don't really see Fauna around even when she is here...
