The Paragons: Chapter 13
http://theparagons.blogspot.com/2010/05/chapter-13.html
The curator of the Metro Museum cowered against the wall, terrified. Qa'a was the museum’s latest acquisition, having arrived early today. The mummified body was their greatest attraction for at least ten years, and ticket sales to see the mummified remains of the last King of Egypt’s first dynasty had already exceeded expectations. The curator buried his face in his hands and whimpered. He couldn’t bear to face such a gruesome end. The door to the lab suddenly crashed open and the curator peaked between...

8220;Now listen up,” Jolt instructed Fever as they turned the corner to face the havoc in the playground. Car sirens wailed, crowds huddled and broken glass lined the road where a few vehicles had collided. 8220;Got it,” Fever grinned, and looked down at his palms as they began to glow red. Even at low heat, he could feel the warmth reaching his face. 8220;Not too hot! 8221; Jolt warned. “You don’t want to hurt him; just subdue him.”. Fever nodded and switched off his internal thermometer. 8221; Bounce l...

Jolt’s fingers dug deep into Seduction’s back, eliciting a moan of satisfaction. 8220;Go harder,” Seduction ordered, and Jolt obeyed, massaging the smooth, taut flesh deeper. Soon, Seduction would abandon the massage for passion, but for now, he relaxed at Jolt’s masterful touch. He sunk into the low-backed plush seat and lost himself in Jolt’s touch. Of course, Quake would have no compunction to bow down to Bounce, given that he was under Seduction’s control. Seduction had promised Bounce a pr...Contrar...

Jolt wiped the sweat from his chest and threw the towel in the laundry shoot. One day he’d get around to finding out who did their cleaning! He peeled off his shorts and hit the shower. Long ago, he’d given up the lycra costumes to fight crime almost au naturale. The benefits were immediate; so much so that rest of the Legion, and even some of their foes had taken to doing the same:. Faster to get changed. Cheaper than replacing wrecked costumes each week. No restrictions of movement. Fever backhanded hi...

8220;So you’re psycho? 8221; O’Shay asked, settling into the high-back office chair. 8220;Psychic,” the Headmaster corrected him politely from where he sat across the desk. “Or more to the point, I have visions of the future, often random, rarely controllable. They just happen.”. The Headmaster smiled, his blind eyes narrowing on his withered face. He took the question as rhetorical. 8220;Then what about the staff? 8221; Jackhammer snapped. “All your teachers have abilities.”. 8221; O’Shay chuckled.

Losing was beyond Jackhammer's comprehension. Yet here he was, staring up at the sun but the light was fast fading to darkness. On the ground underneath him, Crunch held him in both in a full nelson and a crushing leg lock around his ribcage, stretching him out in both directions in a tight torture rack. Above his head, Jackhammer wiggled his fingers and hands until he made contact with Crunch’s chin. Damn! He thought. I can’t reach his face! With the leg lock still around him, but loosened, Jackhammer t...

Jackhammer stepped aside to let the students pass, feeling a twinge of excitement about their next lesson. They glanced casually at him as they passed, but their focus was engulfed by conversations about who they had to fight tomorrow and how easily there were going to whip the other’s arse. 8220;Telepathy is not one of my abilities, Mr Hammer, but since you think they’re so advanced, you’re welcome to help me adjudicate if you wish.”. 8220;Twenty.”. 8220;What’s your problem? 8221; Jackhammer asked.

Outside, Fever was surrounded by at least a dozen scarecrows while in the distance more lumbered across the fields from other farms, converging on the stand-off. One of those scarecrows was the real deal – a nasty piece of work who had tormented the graziers and farmhands for years. His ability to animate scarecrows into an army had forced everyone in the region to pay regular ransoms, often more than they could afford. Fever raised his arms to push them away but instead found his arms swallowed by the s...

Quake adjusted the towel around his waist and plonked himself on a chair in the control room to play back any recent activity on the monitors. He shook his head with a smile as he watched Bounce freak a few pedestrians, then switched off the recording. He spun around in the chair with a childish ‘whee! What’s the world coming to? He thought. Whatever happened to the good old days of crazed villains with super powers of their own? Bored, bored, bored! Did they feed you today? 8220;You here alone? 8220;Oh,...
